Chapter 18: Reunion
Ji Lao Niang thought about it, and to be honest, they were also worried, but there were no special circumstances, it was not easy to ask for leave in the village, and Wormwood's martial arts had already made great progress, plus there were also means to save their lives, so they agreed.
"I'm going too, I'm going too......" The four tigers raised their hands and jumped over there to find a sense of existence.
Before Ji Lao Niang could speak, Wormwood had already stopped her first: "You can't do martial arts, if something happens, it will drag me down." "Hit the nail on the head and leave no room for error.
"......" The four tigers couldn't say a word when they were angry, where was the affection of the brothers and sisters? What is the big truth?
"Okay, you can practice at home!" As for whether the Four Tigers want to go or not, Ji Lao Niang and Wormwood mean the same thing, knowing that it will be very inconvenient for the Four Tigers to follow her.
The four tigers were hit by the mother, and they vowed to practice hard to impress them.
Under the old banyan tree, Lin Erbo's ox cart was waiting there early, and in addition to Lin Erbo, there were only ...... in the cart Ye Shoujun?
Wormwood carried the back basket for concealment, followed Ji Lao Niang to the old banyan tree, saw Ye Shoujun nodded, said hello, and then said to Lin Erbo: "Second Brother Lin, my little sister is bothering you today!" ”
Intellectually, Mrs. Ji knew that even if Wormwood went out alone, she would be fine if someone else had something, but she couldn't help but worry emotionally, and personally sent her over to take the car.
"Mother, okay, okay, you go back!" Wormwood said as she pushed her mother home, and said, "Don't worry! I'm going to be fine, you have to believe your daughter and me, okay? ”
Ji Lao Niang glanced at wormwood, shook her head, and walked back with a stomach full of worry.
After Wormwood saw that her mother was gone, she shouted to the two: "Second Uncle Lin, the defender brother ......", and got on the ox cart, took off the back basket and held it in his arms.
"Let's go, sit down...... ...... driving" Lin Erbo sat at the front of the car, and after speaking, he took the bullwhip and waved it.
"Just the two of us? Don't wait any longer? Wormwood asked curiously.
"There's no one left...... The weather is so good, there is a lot of work in the fields, and the labor force in the village has to go to work, how can anyone go to the township......" Lin Erbo sighed with a full face. If it weren't for his lame leg, he wouldn't have been able to do heavy work, and he wouldn't have been able to grab such a good job.
"Why are you going?" I didn't want to say what had been decided, so I turned my head and asked Wormwood.
"I'm going to the county to buy something."
"You go to the county by yourself with a baby? Do you know where? How to go? Not kidding? Your father and mother have a really big heart. Lin Erbo didn't agree very much, but this is someone's family matter, and the old lady doesn't say anything, he just clicks to the end.
"I don't know, I can ask! The mouth is not on the face to see, it needs to be opened to say and ask, don't look at me small, I may have done it, I will catch it at home and abroad!" Wormwood said seriously as she joked.
"Okay, okay, you deserve to be your father's daughter, you can say it too well. As hellish as you are, it seems that you will be fine everywhere. Lin Erbo was amused by her small appearance.
It was not easy to accept this, and Wormwood felt that it was wrong to say anything, so she had to smirk.
"Brother Defender, where are you going?" Looking at his taciturn appearance, lonely, a little pitiful.
"The county seat." It's really a treasure of words!
"Going to school? You seem to be late, don't you? As soon as the rain stopped, my brother and the others left immediately. ”
"Excuse me for leave and help my dad get the medicine."
Wormwood thought about it, it seems that she has been on leave for a long time, isn't Fifth Daddy Ye okay?
"Fifth Daddy is not okay? How's it going? ”
"......" didn't speak, and Ye Shoujun himself was a little confused...... In fact, he didn't know what his father's illness was, whether it was better or not, it was all his father's own prescription, and he went to the county pharmacy to grab the medicine; He could only guess if it was because his father was young, he followed the team to fight east and west, didn't care about his body, and had a lot of dark injuries on his body, and this time they had a seizure together.
The atmosphere was a little somber, and Wormwood couldn't help but stick out her tongue - as if she had said the wrong thing.
After being speechless all the way, he finally arrived at the township community, and Wormwood breathed a sigh of relief.
Wormwood picked up the basket and said hello to them, ready to take a look at when the bus to the county seat will leave......
"Come with me!" After Ye Shoujun shouted wormwood, he led the way in front without waiting for her to answer, as if he was sure that wormwood would follow.
That arrogant attitude made Wormwood angry, and I really wanted to go against him and leave directly. After thinking about it, she still followed in the end, and then she remembered that Ye Shoujun was also going to enter the city.
Thinking about it, it would be easy to be with him; As for whether Ye Shoujun is deceiving people, it doesn't exist at all, every time I look at him, he looks serious, and I don't know what "joking" means.
Speechless all the way to the county seat, after getting off the bus, Wormwood couldn't wait to say thank you and ran away.
Ye Shoujun looked at the back of wormwood in the distance, and he didn't know what to think, so he didn't say a word for a long time.
For the county seat, Wormwood has actually not been to the county a few times, and the place is not familiar, so after thinking about it, I decided to go to the alley - the place where the three aunts and six women gather, the most news.
"Lao Chen, when will the supply and marketing cooperatives come to the grain again?"
"I don't know! I heard my son say, our side is fine, many places in the north are seriously affected, and people are going to starve to death. "Lao Chen's son is from the transport team, and he is more well-informed than ordinary people.
"My family is running out of food."
"The supply and marketing cooperatives order so much food every month, even if the amount is limited, it is not enough, and those who come late in the future can't buy it."
"Yes, yes, I just had something at home, and I delayed it for a while, but I didn't buy it...... Hey~"
"Coarse grains are okay, I can buy a little bit every month, and I haven't seen fine grains for months."
"In special periods, don't pick, there are coarse grains to eat, just don't go hungry!"
"Isn't that my daughter-in-law about to give birth! Eating only whole grains is not nutritious! ”
"I don't know when it will recover, and I can't see much food in the black market now."
"I estimate that it will be next year at the earliest, when the new grain comes down to return to normal."
"Why?"
"Didn't you say that people were going to starve to death in the north? The country can't watch them really starve to death, since we are better in the south, we must go over evenly and give them help. ”
“……”
After going around a few more times and understanding the basics, Wormwood decided to sell some of the fine grains.
Now it has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, and what people need most is fine grain, and it just so happens that she has no cash in her hand, while the workers in the city are not short of money, but they are short of food.
Wormwood found a blind spot where no one was looking, swept around, and after making sure no one was paying attention, flashed into the farm.
Looking at the piles of grain in front of him worriedly, neither hulling, threshing, nor bagging, and finally according to Xiaozhi's introduction, I bought a fully automatic multi-functional staple food processing machine - as long as the materials are put in, you can thresh, hull, grind, make noodles, rice, dumplings, buns, glutinous rice balls, biscuits and moon cakes, etc., as long as the button is adjusted and the materials are placed, it can be full of rice, top white noodles with wheat fragrance, etc., or it can come out directly of hot, fragrant staple foods - such as rice noodles, Noodles and so on and so forth.
I also bought a fully automatic multi-functional textile machine - as long as the material is put in, it can be made into linen (you can choose the color), sack (you can set the capacity), cotton cloth (you can choose the color), cotton bag (you can set the capacity), spinning, garments (you need to set), pants (you need to set), and so on.
Hold a handful of rice pots, put them in the designated position of the processing machine, and then press "threshing", and in less than a minute, a small pot of yellow-orange-orange rice comes out; Then the rice is poured onto the processing machine, two outlets, two pots are put respectively, press "husking", a pot of rice husk powder, a pot is white and fat rice, the operation is very simple.
Half an hour later, it was filled with 5 large barrels of rice husk flour, 5 large barrels of rice and 5 large barrels of white flour (buy 20 plastic buckets that can hold 100 kilograms).
The fiber cloth bag is more troublesome, mainly because she has no raw materials, so she can only buy it in the mall.
As for the secret recipe for making fiber bags, it is also very simple, as long as you press "fiber cloth bag" on the textile machine, it will be automatically displayed.
Two hours later, Wormwood packed 50 pieces of white flour and 50 pounds of rice, 1 catty, 2 catties, 5 catties and 10 catties respectively.
Wormwood painted herself again, bought a set of clothes of her size, put on the clothes of the male baby, and carried a basket on her back, who was not particularly familiar with people, could not recognize it at all; After making sure that there was no one outside, Ash quickly left the farm.
Carrying the basket on her back, she walked into the family courtyard of the woodware factory, and came to an old lady with a vegetable basket, looking at her sad and empty basket, Wormwood walked in front of her in a few steps, and asked loudly: "Auntie, do you know how to go to Lao Qiu's house?" Then he quickly whispered, "Do you want fine grain?" ”
The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then whispered in ecstasy: "If you want to ......"
looked left and right and no one noticed, and said, "Young man, it's inconvenient here, come to my house!" ”
"My mother-in-law's surname is Chen, my family is in front, my old man has worked in the factory all his life, and now he is retired at home, and his son and daughter-in-law are also working in the factory." Aunt Chen was afraid that Wormwood would be worried, so she deliberately explained her situation so that she could rest assured.
In fact, Wormwood really hasn't been worried, since she has cultivated her spiritual power, she has become more and more sensitive to the good and evil of people, if she hadn't felt that the old lady was a kind-hearted person just now, she wouldn't have dared to ask her.
It was really close, and it didn't take a word to arrive, Aunt Chen pushed open the door of the house, didn't see the old man, and probably went out to play chess with his old buddies.
"What do you have, young man?" The fine grain at home has been broken for a long time, and the adults are fine, but the coarse grain makes the child often stuck in the throat and can't eat, and in recent months, she has lost weight visibly with the naked eye, and she is dying, like just now when she just had no choice, she went out with a basket to try her luck.
"White flour and rice ......," he said, taking off the basket and showing her the wrapped white flour and rice.
"There are one catty, two catties and five catties, all of them are weighed, if you don't believe it, you can weigh it yourself." Wormwood pointed to the fiber cloth bag.
Mrs. Chen opened a bag of white noodles, and was greeted by a pungent fragrance of noodles, so white - it can be regarded as a special white noodles, and opened a bag of rice, and found that it was also special, and asked happily and sadly: "How to sell it?" ”
"It's all a dollar and a pound, no tickets."
"Then I'm going to have it...... "Good luck!" It's not expensive, and they don't need tickets, or they can't afford it!
"How many pounds? I still have 10 catties of packs, if you want more, I'll go and get it for you, this small bag is sold to small households. ”
"You still have? Is there 100 pounds? "Aunt Chen really can't believe it, such good luck has made her bump into, their family is not short of money, but there are no food stamps.
"500 pounds are available, just wait for half an hour."
"Then you give me two hundred pounds of each."
"Okay." As he spoke, he put the bags of fine grain back in the basket.
Aunt Chen watched the movements of wormwood, and stopped talking......
"Auntie, you can prepare the money and wait for me!" Wormwood gave her a reassurance.
Wormwood hurriedly walked out of the family home, found a dead corner, entered the farm, and used a loom to weave 10 100-kilogram cloth bags, and 5 pieces of rice and white flour each. I bought another trolley, put 4 bags of rice and white noodles on it, scanned it with mental power all the way, and went to a place where no one paid attention to it, and delivered it safely to Mrs. Chen's house.
In the same way, one after another, the packaged rice and white noodles were sold, and 1,000 yuan was easily obtained.
