"Girl, are you really going to ask for this?" Grandma Yu is eighty-five years old this year, her son and daughter-in-law went early, leaving only a little grandchild to her, she is old and can't chop much firewood, today these yellow eels and loaches are caught by grandchildren Qiuqiu, but bullfrogs are generally not eaten, she took them together to try her luck, but she met a buyer near the end of the stall.

When she saw Tang Mian nodding, she didn't dare to ask for too high a price.

"Grandma Yu, you think this is good, I can't take so many things alone, I will buy your board car together, I will give you a tael of silver, okay?" Tang Mian smiled and took out some broken silver and put it in her hand.

Grandma Yu hurriedly waved her hand, "The girl doesn't matter, even if you want to get on the board car, it's not worth a silver or two, so it's okay, I'll send it to you, you can just tell me a hundred wen!" ”

After Tang Mian was reborn, it was the first time he met an old man with such a noble character.

Even though her clothes were full of patches, and the instep of her feet was full of scars, she refused to charge her a penny.

She leaned over, put the bamboo baskets containing the yellow eels on the cart, and was about to start pushing.

Tang Mian saw that she was a little struggling, so he went to help.

The two chatted a few words along the way.

Grandma Yu also said that when she went back with this hundred wen, she would be able to buy some brown rice for her grandson Qiuqiu to eat......

When she arrived at the store, she refused the rice and noodles sent by Tang Mian, and was about to go back with the cart and the empty bamboo baskets.

Tang Mian saw that it was completely dark at this time.

Her house is still thirty miles away from here, and it is estimated that it will be dawn when she walks by foot.

"Grandma Yu, I'll send you back!" Tang Mian finished speaking.

Grandma Yu hurriedly waved her hand again, "Girl, I am already very happy that you are willing to spend so much money on my family's goods today, thank you for your kindness." ”

"Grandma, if you really want to thank my host, then get in the carriage!" Du Yunze has been with them all day today, and he admires this grandma very much, she is poor and energetic, and she doesn't like to take advantage.

I think the pattern in his heart is really small.

It's really undeserved to start hiding for such a trivial matter.

"Cloud Flow! You—" Tang Mian saw him appear in front of him in a carriage, and she was thrilled by the faint light of the lanterns hanging from the door of the shop and the carriage.

"Hmm......" Du Yunze didn't dare to look at her tearful eyes, avoiding her burning gaze.

Fortunately, at this time, Grandma Yu's voice sounded appropriately.

"The old woman thanked you for your kindness, but the carriage can't fit such a big cart, I, I-"

Xiaocui couldn't get used to Grandma Yu's rejecting appearance.

"Mother-in-law, just let Yunliu send you back! It only takes half a pillar of incense to take a carriage to your village, and if you push such a heavy cart, it is estimated that you will not be able to arrive tomorrow! Xiao Cui said halfway, and when she saw what Grandma Yu wanted to say, she hurriedly spoke: "Mother-in-law, your board car is in our shop, and I will ask someone to send it to the village for you tomorrow." ”

Seeing that Grandma Yu was still hesitating, Xiao Cui lowered her voice and said, "Mother-in-law, you want it!" The moon is dark and the wind is high, you have a hundred copper coins on you today, if you meet a bad person on the road, it is not in vain, if you have an accident because of this, what do you let your grandson do! ”

Xiao Cui's words all said in her heart.

She lived to be eighty-five years old and didn't see anything through.

Miss Tang is a good person, so she shouldn't do anything to them.

Seeing that Grandma Yu was finally willing to get into the carriage, Tang Mian also hurriedly sat on.

"Ahh Master, just let Yunliu send it! You—" Cui said when she saw this.

Tang Mian gave her a few words, but he didn't worry about Grandma Yu going back alone, so he asked Yunliu to drive the carriage to Shanao Village.

After half a pillar of incense, they finally arrived at the entrance of the village.

Looking at the pitch-black village in front of him, Tang Mian was a little uneasy.

Originally, she thought that the villages living near the imperial city should be extremely wealthy, but the mountain col village subverted her imagination.

None of them lit oil lamps or candles, and they had to be poor.

"Miss Tang, Yunliu, thank you for sending me back." Grandma Yu stood outside the door and thanked them.

"Grandma Yu, go back and rest quickly! In the future, if you get another yellow eel or something, just send it to our inn, and I will ask the guy to send it tomorrow if you have a board car or something......"

Sitting in the carriage back, looking at the back through the carriage curtain, Tang Mian did not hesitate, opened the carriage curtain and sat beside Yunliu.

Du Yunze's body stiffened, and as soon as the reins in his hand were closed, the horse gradually slowed down.

"Yunliu, aren't you angry with me?" Tang Mian pondered for three days, and finally came to a conclusion that her attitude when she talked to Yunliu that day was too bad, and Yunliu should be angry.

“……”

"Yunliu, I've been talking for so long, what do you mean, are you still willing to be my guard?" Tang Mian snatched the reins from his hand and held the carriage steady.

The moonlight scattered across the land, illuminating a long official road in front of him.

Just like Du Yunze's heart for Tang Mian, it is profound and concise.

Thinking that he was jealous of himself, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he turned his head to look at Tang Mian, "Dongjia, I'm not angry with you, I'm angry that I ruined your reputation." ”

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly turned his head, and heard Tang Mian laughing.

She's long gone with this kind of thing.

She didn't want to remarry anyway, it didn't matter.

Tang Mian turned around and patted him on the shoulder, "Yunliu, it's okay, you also know that I have an intention, I won't hold you responsible, even if he knows about this, he shouldn't dislike me." ”

Hearing Tang Mian's calm tone, Du Yunze's heart tightened again, and he was a little uncomfortable.

But she was right.

Even if Mian is an adult wife and has children at the moment, he will be desperate to keep her by his side......

"Let's go! This is over, let's go back quickly! I'm dying of hunger—"

An hour later, Tang Mian served the roasted yellow eel with sauce and stewed loach with tofu.

"Boss, are these eels and loaches? Why does it smell so good? Qiao Sheng was surprised, he had eaten all these things, and the taste was good, but it was too fishy.

Seeing his questioning attitude, Du Yunze patted his little head, "Boy, the owner's cooking skills are the best in the world, even if it is mud, it can burn the taste of meat!" Don't wait a minute, don't call yourself not hungry! ”

Hearing Yunliu boasting about himself again, Tang Mian was overjoyed in his heart and beckoned everyone to hurry up and eat.

After Qiao Sheng took a bite of the yellow eel meat, he felt that all he had eaten before was pig food.

It's also so delicious.

Rao is a young master like Du Yunze, who has eaten a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and he can't help but sigh that Tang Mian's cooking skills have improved a lot, which is really delicious.

He's not a greedy person, so he'll take two more bites tonight.

"Master, I dare to pack tickets, if these two dishes are put on the 'first package in the world' to sell, they will definitely become popular in the entire Lingcheng......" Xiaocui said.

Tang Mian shook his head, it's been almost half a month, and there is still half a month left before the epidemic will break out.

When the time comes, not to mention yellow eel, even a green leafy vegetable will not be eaten.

Although she bought a lot of dry goods, rice and noodles, and almost emptied all the major grocery stores in the imperial city, it was still not enough.

I thought about getting some dried fish and bacon by myself, but this season was not suitable, so I had to give up.

She is still worried about her mother's side now, but Aunt Ma should have prepared things according to her instructions.

"Master, master? What are you thinking? Xiao Cui spoke energetically, and after seeing that Tang Mian was not listening, she got up and leaned into her ear and asked.

"Ahh Xiaocui, you-" Tang Mian subconsciously jumped up, and when she saw that everyone was looking at her, she smiled awkwardly.
