On Ye Hao's side, before resting on the kang, she was still a little worried and asked Xing's family: "Mother, tomorrow without me and my brother, don't you really need to ask someone for help?" ”

Tomorrow is the day she and the lady of Yuquan Temple have made an appointment, and her brother needs to go to the county seat with her to send the twenty cans of chrysanthemum tea.

There are only three mothers left in the family, but the number of sugar gourds that need to be made tomorrow is the largest ever.

She was worried that with the speed of only three people, she would not be able to complete the task.

"Hey, no, no, my mother will start early tomorrow, can't you do it harder? Don't worry! ”

At the mention of this, Xing's whole body was full of energy, and even his cheeks seemed to be glowing.

This is their own livelihood, and the more sugar gourds are sold, the more money they earn, and in just a few days, they have already earned several taels of silver.

After selling it for a while, won't the money for my son's treatment and education be there?

Ye Hao frowned slightly, a little helpless: "Mother, I think it's better to find someone to do it together, right?" ”

"It's okay for two days a day, but this sugar gourd will be sold for a while, and it's not good if you're tired and sick."

Xing Shi waved his hand, still not relenting: "What's this, my mother's work in the past is much more tiring than this, you don't care, go to sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow!" ”

Ye Hao shook her head helplessly, forget it, when the number of sugar gourds sold in the follow-up is more, presumably her mother will be relieved, right?

After a busy day, she fell asleep after just a few breaths of lying on the kang, and soon only the sound of breathing was heard in the room.

.............

"Zhen'er, wake up, it's already late, the porridge and pancakes are ready, my mother has boiled eggs, you guys eat quickly and go out!"

On the side of the kang in the house, Xing gently shook his daughter's body and said at the same time.

"Hmm.... Wake up, wake up, I'm awake. Ye Zhenteng sat up from the kang suddenly, rubbing his eyes and answering vaguely on his mouth.

Stretching and patting her cheek, she lifted her spirits, got dressed on the kang, and walked out the door.

The cold water slapped on her face, which made her head completely sober, washed up, and the family of five sat at the wooden table with the stump leg.

Eating fragrant meals, boiled sticky eight-treasure porridge, accompanied by small pickles dripping with sesame oil, and burnt burnt cakes, just smelling it, it makes people have a great appetite.

In the four small bowls, there was also a white and tender egg, and Ye Hao was very happy to eat.

After eating, Xing handed a bag of oiled paper to his daughter and instructed: "You take these, you are hungry on the road to eat, there are two pancakes in it, and eggs." ”

After saying this, she handed a few taels of silver to her daughter: "You take these with you, in case something happens, you can also respond to an emergency, but you have to hide it, don't be seen!" ”

Ye Hao didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Mother, I haven't spent the silver money you gave before, it's enough!" ”

"Take it, you are going to the county seat, the poor family is rich, bring more silver, and your heart is steady." Xing's eyes were filled with worry.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't leave the house, she would accompany her daughter to go over with her daughter, only her son would accompany her, and she really couldn't let go of her heart.

This time, Ye Hao didn't refuse again, took the broken silver, and stuffed it into the cuffs.

She saw Xing's uneasiness and understood that by accepting the money, her mother's heart could be more stable.

Putting on her back the basket, she walked out of the house with her brother, and after walking a few steps, Ye Hao turned her head and looked behind her.

I saw Xing standing at the door looking at their backs, with unconcealed worry on his face.

She smiled and waved her hand: "Mother, we are leaving, don't worry, we will come back safely." ”

"Go, go, be careful on the road, don't fight with others when you encounter something, take a step back, and be kind is the most important thing."

Xing Shi said again.

"Got it." Ye Hao answered and walked out of the door with her brother.

.............

Today is neither a big set nor a small set, when they go out, the time is still early, there is no ox cart waiting at the head of the village, Ye Hao and the two have to carry the basket on their backs and walk to the town.

Twenty cans of chrysanthemum tea, including jars, weighed at least thirty catties, and Ye Ming alone carried fifteen jars, if it wasn't for Ye Hao's insistence on wanting to share some, he might have carried them all.

After this period of recuperation, coupled with Ye Hao's opening a small stove for herself from time to time, her appearance has become a little better, and her cheeks have become fairer and more rosy.

There is also some flesh, and it no longer looks as dry as it used to be, and it is a lot more pleasing to the eye.

It was this hair, Ye Hao dragged a strand of hair to his eyes and looked at it a few times, and pursed his lips with a little disgust.

If it weren't for the so-called "body hair and skin, and parents who receive it", she would have shaved all her current hair and let it grow again!

How long is she going to wear such a terrible hair?

………

An hour later, Ye Hao turned her head and asked, "Brother, are you tired?" Why don't we take a break? ”

Ye Ming looked up at the sky and nodded: "It's okay." ”

Sitting down on the dry grass on the side of the road, the two took off the back basket, Ye Hao took out the oiled paper bag, took out the eggs, and asked with a smile: "Brother, do you want to eat?" ”

Ye Ming nodded decisively: "Eat!" ”

Hahaha, she knew it.

Smiled and handed an egg to her brother, and she took one out as well.

In fact, they eat a lot in the morning, but they eat less food with oil and water on weekdays, and both of them are of the age of growing bodies.

In just two hours, she felt that her stomach was more than half empty, she was like this, her brother carried more things than her, and the consumption was definitely greater than hers.

After eating the eggs, the two hit the road again, and finally arrived outside the town at the beginning of the hour.

At this time, the sky was just bright, and the streets paved with bluestone slabs were cold.

The two of them walked along the street to the outside of the carriage and horse shop, which was open, and many people in the shop were busy loading things into the carriage.

Seeing this scene, Ye Ming didn't need to be reminded by his sister, he stepped forward and asked a middle-aged man who was obviously much better dressed than others, "Is there a carriage and horse to Meixian here?" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he looked up at the two of them: "Yes!" You two are going? Just in time for us to leave in a moment. ”

"If you want to go, you can sit in the car by paying twenty cents per person."

Ye Hao obediently paid the fee of forty yuan.

Zaolin Town is not too far from Meixian, but it is not close, it takes about two hours on foot, and less than half the time when you take a carriage.

Considering that it would take so long for them to return, and the time they might have lost in the county seat, Ye Hao and the others chose to take a carriage.

This way they can return on the same day and avoid the mother's worries.
