Chapter 20 The county seat
Aunt Hua finished cooking today and waited for Lin Wu to come back.
Seeing Renhua, Aunt Hua was a little angry and said, "You won't talk to me if you go." ”
Lin Wu laughed and took out eight cents from his pocket and gave it to her. Aunt Hua took it and counted it, and the money was indeed Bawen, so she said, "Is Sheng Ling'er's family settled on the same day?" ”
Lin Wu nodded: "It's not all, the rice I ate today includes braised chicken, and the staple food is not ordinary people's steamed buns, but big white rice." ”
As soon as he said this, Lin Anxie couldn't help but look at him.
······ It's so good to work outside, and braised chicken?
"I heard from my classmates that his father also worked in the city. Although the lunch is said to have meat, there are only one or two pieces in a large pot, is that true? Lin Anxie ate two bites of rice, and felt more and more tasteless, so he spoke.
Lin Wu shook his head: "Sheng Ling'er's family is not like this, there are always four people in our work, not to mention three or four dishes, what about a pot full of braised chicken?" There are also enough scrambled eggs, and the people who work together say that they have never seen such a good master's house. ”
Saying this, Lin Anxie couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
······ Sheng Ling'er, is the food really so good?
He thought about it, even the people who work are so good, so needless to say their own family, isn't it a big fish and meat every day?
"The other workers also divided the pork and went back to it."
Aunt Hua frowned: "Then why didn't you give it to our family." ”
Lin Wu smiled and said: "Then you can get it all, there is only one pork leg in total." What's more, the other few are working in the fields, and I just help them repair and repair their houses, which is easier and naturally less than others. ”
Aunt Hua just gave up.
Lin Wu started eating, and after a while, he glanced at Lin Anxie, in fact, according to me, our family Anxie can also go to learn a craft, Sheng Ling'er's family also invited someone to saw wood, I heard that I want to make a few sets of furniture, cabinets and tables at home, these people's wages are twice as high as mine······
Before Lin Anxie could speak, Aunt Hua gave him a roll of his eyes first.
"My family is going to be an official in the future, what do you do?"
Lin Wu muttered.
"There are so many people who study, how can everyone who reads become officials?"
Aunt Hua heard: "What did you say?" ”
Lin Wu said: "Didn't say anything? ”
Aunt Hua's face was still not good-looking, and she didn't speak, so Lin Wu also shut up with interest, and after eating and washing the dishes, Lin Wu walked back to the room.
Seeing that Aunt Hua was still not very happy, she went in and said a few words.
······ It's nothing more than a big deal when he says something wrong, Aunt Hua knows who he is, and she doesn't really get angry with him, but she is a little panicked in her heart.
The two said a few words, and Lin Wu said: "I've been going for the past few days, and I've seen this girl, but now she really talks and does things?" Is that you? Another good hand. I don't know what kind of person he will find in his village in the future. She and her voice. talent and his heart. ”
“······ What are you talking about? Aunt Hua played with the corner of her frayed clothes.
There were only two of them at the moment, and Lin Wu said directly: "Our family is not bad, if it wasn't for that kind of thing, maybe we would be a family now······ Do you think it's still possible? ”
"------ possible? You look at Sheng Ling'er's appearance, does it seem like it's possible? "Aunt Hua doesn't have a good temperament.
"When I first got out of the marriage, I saw that this girl was not easy to mess with. If something like this happens, it's good that she is willing to let you go to work, how can she come back to our family to thank you. ”
Oh yes······
Lin Wu thought about it, his face didn't look good, and he sighed a little after two seconds.
Aunt Hua was really angry when she saw him like this, and sneered: "You all agreed to the divorce at the beginning. Now that I regret it, I blame it. ”
Lin Wu looked like he was really angry, and hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, I just think that the girls of the Sheng family are much better than most of the people in the village." ”
Hearing this, Aunt Hua frowned, and said, "That is, she can hunt, do you think that if her temper really arrives at our house, will she still have a good life?" ”
Lin Wu didn't speak, in fact, he felt in his heart that Sheng Ling'er was not easy to get along with, and Aunt Hua's own temper might not be very good.
······ Forget it, don't talk about it, if you keep talking, the two will have to quarrel again.
·························
Sheng Ling'er didn't know that someone was beating her mind now.
After running with Zixi at night, he was sweating all over.
After she went to the bath and took a bath, she went to the room to make a cup of tea------ which she went to the mountains to pick, the leaves were larger than modern tea leaves, I don't know what kind of tea they were, but the taste was sweet and sweet.
Zixi was copying words in her room, and she didn't know what she was thinking when Zixi made a move today, she made such a low-level mistake, if Sheng Ling'er hadn't stopped it in time, he was afraid that he would have been lying in bed for a few months.
Zixi is a teenager, and he is not good at corporal punishment. How is it really fighting, and it is not easy to explain to Yu Meihua, so Sheng Linger asked him to copy the big characters, which is just enough to hone his heart.
Although she didn't copy much before, several brothers and sisters complained about it.
"How many?"
Zixi looked up at her with some resentment: "Thirty." ”
······ My hands are sore.
Yo, the speed is quite fast, Sheng Ling'er looked funny when she saw him, but she didn't show it on her face.
She stepped forward to take a look, and there were a few scribbled handwriting in the middle, so she took them out directly and said, "This doesn't count." ”
Zixi glanced at her, not even having the courage to defend herself.
Somehow, Sheng Ling'er's simple glance made him unable to resist.
At the moment, I went to copy again.
He was copying words, and another person from the Sheng family, Sheng Yun, was not idle.
Sheng Yun's study was in the afternoon or evening, and this afternoon Sheng Ling'er was practicing martial arts with Zixi, so it dragged on until the evening.
Sheng Yun is still in the stage of recognizing words, in addition to recognizing and writing big characters every day, she just reads some simple poems and songs------ Sheng Linger shows her the most basic ones, so it is not difficult to teach.
After teaching in half an hour, Sheng Yun went to write by himself. But Zixi finished copying it after two hours, Sheng Ling'er took the paper and looked at it, and nodded: "Next time, you have to remember, I will keep my hand and others will not keep my hand when they fight with you, huh?" ”
Zixi nodded obediently: "By the way, Sister Ling'er, are you going to sell things at the market tomorrow?" ”
Sheng Ling'er nodded.
There was quite a lot of prey from yesterday, and there was only a roe deer and a hare left. It's a waste not to sell it.
"Then I'll go with you tomorrow!"
After Zixi left, Sheng Ling'er washed her hands with the warm hot water on the stove before going to sleep.
Early the next morning.
They borrowed a small donkey from the uncle in the east of the village and went to the county seat together.
Shengjia Village belongs to Wushan Town, which in turn belongs to Wuling County, which is a second-class county seat in Dadu Dynasty. Although it is not a very large county, the people in it live much more than Shengjia Village.
The streets are full of people coming and going, shouting and shouting, and it looks very lively.
In fact, this is not the first time Sheng Ling'er has come, the first time, he called Yu Meihua to join her, so he is not very unfamiliar with this road. There is a market in Wushan County, where many people in the village sell their wares. The first time was that Sheng Ling'er was also sold there, but this time Sheng Ling'er was ready to change places.
She inquired, and the largest restaurant in Wuling County was Taibaiju, so she took Zixi directly to the inside.
·············
It's early in the morning.
There was no one in Taibai Ju at all, so Sheng Ling'er walked in directly.
The person dressed as a junior saw her young age, but he didn't show a contemptuous look, but asked, "Do the two guest officers want to eat something?" ”
Sheng Ling'er said: "I'm not here to eat. Do you collect prey? This is what I just called. ”
The shopkeeper looked at the contents of the back basket and said with a smile: "You wait, I have to ask our boss about this matter." ”
As he spoke, he shook the cloth off his shoulders and went in.
Sheng Ling'er heard a voice from inside: "Shopkeeper, come out quickly, someone has sent us prey!" ”
It didn't take long for a slightly chubby middle-aged man to walk out. He listened to Xiao Er tell them what they were coming for.
First looked at the prey in the back basket, nodded, and looked at Sheng Ling'er and Zixi with a pair of eyes, with two shrewd looks in their eyes.
He smiled kindly: "Little girl, where did you get your prey?" ”
Sheng Ling'er looked at him and swallowed the words that came to her mouth.
She said, "This is my father's call, he went to work, let's sell this." ”
The shopkeeper nodded after hearing this: "I won't deceive you, this robe is twenty wen a catty, and this hare is fifteen wen a catty." ”
Sheng Ling'er was secretly happy in her heart.
The last time she went to the market to sell roe deer, it was only fifteen cents a catty, and now she has grown half of it.
Taibaiju has special tools, and the weight is calculated after a while, which adds up to 180 yuan.
Sheng Ling'er's face was quite calm, and she smiled at the shopkeeper: "Thank you." ”
At the same time, Zixi also nodded with the shopkeeper, the young man looked gentle and elegant, even if he was in ordinary clothes, he showed two bearings.
Zixi himself didn't know about this change, but he and Sheng Ling'er practiced martial arts and studied for a few months.
And since Sheng Laosan died, his mentality has changed a little, and this person is naturally different.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then nodded at him, and when he saw that the two of them were leaving, he hurriedly said, "Next time there is prey, you can bring it to me." ”
It was an unexpected surprise.
Sheng Ling'er said: "Then thank you to the shopkeeper, if you have good prey in the future, you will definitely bring it." ”
