Chapter 186: Lu Xu descends the mountain
"I wonder what kind of person that girl is?"
As soon as the iceman heard it, she knew that there was a play, and it was not in vain that she ran so many times these days.
"That girl is sixteen years old, her surname is Wu, and her character and appearance are not bad, by the way, she can also read and write."
"Literacy hyphenation?" Chan became intrigued.
"Her grandfather was a gentleman in the county school in the early years, but over the years, the school style in the county school has become worse and worse, they have offended people again, and they can't stay in the county school, and then they have been suppressed everywhere, and there was a little turn for the better three months ago, I don't want to suffer another natural disaster, and now there is no rice grain at home."
The gentlemen of the county school are all of good taste, although they are only from the ninth grade, but they are also the imperial court of food, and they are by no means suppressed by anyone who wants to suppress them.
Thinking of what the iceman said, the family saw a turnaround three months ago, Yuan Lingchen guessed that the family was probably a little involved with the Yang, Zhao and Han families.
She only kept her thoughts in her heart, and did not interject at this time to interrupt the words of the Iceman and Chen.
Then he listened to Bing Dao again, "There is another younger brother in the girl's family, who is as old as Chan'er, because the family is really difficult, they don't want any dowry, just ask the younger one to come over, give a few mouthfuls of food every day, and not starve to death." โ
Chen's eyebrows furrowed: "Is it so difficult?" โ
"It's not that far, but I vaguely heard the girl's father mention that after this great drought, there will be a plague of locusts, and if this is the case, their family may be in trouble, and they only want the two children to have a way to live, but they never mention themselves."
Chen couldn't help but think of Sun Lan's father and mother, after hearing that Shangyuan Village had enough rice and grain, he came to the door twice in three days to fight the autumn wind, and was sent away by He again and again.
At this time, the Chen family hoped to have a worry-free in-law, and if the family was really reasonable, they would not mind giving them more rice and grain to tide them over.
Chen glanced at Yuan Lingchen and saw that she meant the same thing, so he had some numbers in his heart.
"That's it, if you are free another day, you will arrange for us to look at each other, there is a son in my family who is seventeen years old, and he is quite compatible in age, if it is really a good one, I can also be the master."
The Iceman got the right word and clapped his hands, "Then it's settled, I'll ask them when I get back." โ
I thought that the girl was really a great blessing, and she was able to be favored by their family.
She couldn't be clearer about what kind of life Sun Lan lived at the beginning, but now, her in-laws are kind, her husband is considerate, and she has no worries about food and clothing, which is a very happy thing in such a world.
โฆโฆ
The speed of the iceman was very fast, and there was a letter the next day, and after another two days, the two sides were arranged to meet.
Chen was also quite satisfied with the family, and after asking He, the matter was settled.
The bride price alone was given five stones of corn, if it wasn't for the fear of being too ostentatious, He would have wanted to give more, which shows how satisfied she is with this family.
The family obviously didn't expect that the Yuan family would be so kind, they just wanted to save the two children, and they themselves were already planning to resign themselves to fate.
When he heard that there was a turning point, he regarded the Yuan family as a benefactor.
Because the Wu family was very short of rice and grain, they must have a family, so the Yuan family carried the rice and grain to the door, and the five stone corn was carried to the Wu family, and the neighbors were alarmed and ran to see the excitement.
When he saw the heavy rice and grain carried into the Wu family, his eyes were red with jealousy.
"Is it the Wu family today? I don't know where to find someone? How can you take out so much rice......"
"Five stones, not adulterated at all."
"The daughter of the Wu family, who has few taels of meat, can sell so much rice and grain, why doesn't our family have such a good life?"
"If my family can get a stone of rice grain, I will wake up laughing......"
Now nearly half of the grain shops in the city have no grain to sell, and the few that are still open have the price of grain that is ridiculously high, and they can no longer afford it.
Although they lived in the city, they were only the most ordinary people in the city, and they were not much better than the peasants, at least the peasants had land, but they did not.
"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Wu family is going to marry a young man from Shangyuan Village......"
"Shangyuan Village?" A woman's voice suddenly rose, "But that Shangyuan Village, where the whole village can grow mushrooms and catch up with big businessmen?" โ
Today's Shangyuan Village is not too famous in the entire Gaochang County.
Maybe it's nothing in the eyes of the family, but in the eyes of the common people, it's like a thunderous existence.
For example, the people of Shangyuan Village learned how to grow mushrooms, and the whole clan planted mushrooms, but they still don't know what mushrooms are? Originally, it was something that could be exchanged for a pound of rice grain.
Although they can't change so much now, people know big businessmen, so they are willing to give them a steady stream of rice and grain.
In a disaster year like this, the harvest in the field has been extinct, but there is still such a place, where so much rice and grain can be exchanged for only incense mushrooms, isn't it just the existence of a paradise?
No matter what kind of thoughts those present have, in short, they all have an attitude of envy, jealousy and hatred towards the Wu family, which has long been broken.
"I really can't see that the people who are silent on weekdays have told them such a family affair......"
"I don't know how many days I can eat so much rice......
On the way back, Yuan Lingchen secretly instructed Qian Huan, "I just saw that among the onlookers, there are some ill intentions, these days, you are also staring at some, don't be taken advantage of." โ
When people are in a desperate situation, they are easy to do things that destroy human nature, and she doesn't want the people of the Wu family to encounter any accidents because of this.
"In addition, I want to use a wall of green bricks in Shangyuan Village to come out, and the next days will not be peaceful, so it is better to be careful."
Qian Huan also wanted to mention this matter, but seeing that she had already thought of it, she didn't say much, just nodded in response.
Yuan Lingyao's marriage was scheduled for a month later, and before that, Qian Hui was รท to collect the collection of books and the tribesmen built a courtyard wall more than a foot high outside the village.
The whole village is surrounded like an iron bucket, even if someone has a bad intention, in the face of such a high courtyard wall, it is helpless, it is not that no one has climbed in with the help of rope ladders, but once they have entered, they have never come out.
After a few times, no one dared to have that heart anymore.
A month later, Yuan Lingyao successfully married Wu Yuewei, and because Sun Lan was pregnant, Chen asked Wu Yuewei to come to their home to weave silk for them.
From this day on, Yuan Lingchen's family often has a Xiaolang of the same age as her, following Wu Yuewei like a little tail.
This little lang's name is Wu Zhizhu, and he is the youngest son of the Wu family who entrusted them to their family.
It's not that the Wu family has to come over, but the He family likes it, and seeing that their sister and brother are deeply affectionate, they took the initiative to take people to live there.
The news that Yuan Lingchen had one more playmate could not hide it from Song Qingheng's ears and eyes.
On the same day, an obscure letter arrived somewhere thousands of miles away.
A few days later, an inconspicuous carriage drove into Gaochang County.
An old man in the car was gushing, "You said you, why are you so breathless?" It's just a little doll, can you use it like a great enemy? โ
Lu Xu glanced at him, "No matter how noisy it is, I'll go back." โ
