As soon as the story was finished, Mingzhu smiled and pointed at the fat little brother: "Look, this little brother is the witty and brave hero in the story, who drugged and stunned all the flower shooters." ”

"Wow! ——”

The children listened and surrounded the fat boy and began a close-up live interview with the hero.

When has the fat guy seen this battle?! A group of children dressed almost identically, all of them looked so cute that he couldn't tell who was who for a while. Before my mind was ready, a series of questions came my way.

"Uncle! Uncle! What's your name?! ”

Fat: "It's my brother!" I haven't done the crown yet! I haven't even decided on my family! ”

"Okay, brother, what's your name?!"

Fat brother: "My name is Yue Xiaopeng." ”

"Oh! It turned out to be Brother Yue! ”

Fat Peng: "You can't call me Brother Yue, because the men on our Zhuangzi are all surnamed Yue, and you can't tell who you are calling when you call me that!" So, you have to call me Brother Xiaopeng. ”

……

Mingzhu listened for a while and found that these were all non-nutritious problems. But it's right to think about it, it is obviously unrealistic to expect a group of children who are no more than three or four years old to ask some in-depth questions like the editorials remember.

At this time, Shao Qi led a strong man over.

Mingzhu greeted him with a smile: "Presumably you are the village chief here, right?!" ”

The village chief nodded, and he was not verbose: "I don't know what happened when Mrs. called down?!" "To be honest, when the village chief came, he was a little dissatisfied. Because in his impression, if someone else has something, they should take the initiative to find him, how can people find him outside to talk? It's not that he's putting it up, it's just that it's all basic respect. However, looking at the dress and bearing of this group of people, the village chief's mood eased.

When it comes to dressing, it looks very ordinary, just some cotton clothes. Since they received the bonus, almost everyone in their village has made a cotton garment. But there is a difference between cotton and cotton, and there is also a difference between clothes and clothes. When the village chief was young, he also saw some of the ones on the market, not to mention anything else, although the fabrics on these people were of different colors, they were all exactly the same in other aspects.

Each thread is extraordinarily thin and even; The grain distance of the warp and weft lines is very neat and orderly; Not a single stitch was exposed at the seams of the fabric; There is no difference in the distance between the stitches of the hem of the garment...... It may not sound like much, but don't forget, this is an era of pure craftsmanship. A piece of clothing is like this, and the village chief can still understand. Everyone's clothes are like this, which is far beyond his comprehension!

Mingzhu didn't know that the frugal dress she thought she was wearing was full of flaws in the eyes of the village chief. After listening to the village chief's neat question, he said with a smile: "Because I heard that all the people in this Zhuangzi have a heroic and righteous spirit. The concubine came with her students and wanted them to be taught for three days. I don't have to do anything for you, I just want to rent your threshing floor as a place to stay. If there is anything disturbing for the children these days, please bear with the villagers. ”

Seeing that the village chief was a little hesitant, Mingzhu gestured to Shao Qi. I saw Shao Qi take out a wooden box, and after opening it, there were twenty silver ingots neatly placed inside. Mingzhu continued: "These two hundred taels of silver, for the time being, will be handed over to the village chief first. Because it may disturb the people of your village, each family can get one or two silver gifts first. If there is anything wrong, it is not too late to say more. The rest of these are even if the concubine has a little heart for this righteous village. You can use the money to build a primary school for the children, and hire a gentleman. ”

The so-called Zhengqi Village is just a compliment, and this Zhuangzi is actually called Yuejiazhuang. The whole Zhuangzi has the same root and origin, and there are only 24 households in total. Two hundred taels of silver is definitely a huge amount of money for the entire Zhuangzi. The village chief pondered in his heart, yes, seeing that they would not be bad people, since they wanted to stay and take a look, then take a look. So, he pretended not to see the nobility of this group of people, and responded: "Okay, let Xiaopeng take you to the threshing floor to settle down in a while." I will go to each house first, and then I will not disturb and take my leave. ”

After speaking, he bowed, turned around and left with the wooden box containing the silver.

Seeing him walk away, Zhang Fengfeng on the side said with some dissatisfaction: "Hmph! What kind of righteous village is it! Don't you still see the money?! ”

Hearing this, Mingzhu frowned, and said with a straight face: "Are you righteous, and is there any conflict between whether you love money?!" The so-called gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way. He did not take the initiative to ask for it, and the income was both voluntary. Is there anything wrong with that?! ”

Zhang Fengfeng was also stunned when he heard this, yes, the love of money itself is not a fault?!

After Mingzhu finished talking to her, she turned around and went to talk to that Yue Xiaopeng: "This is Xiaopeng, right?!" Just now, the village chief said that you should take us to the threshing floor to settle down, can I leave now?! ”

Yue Xiaopeng had already been asked by this group of little guys at this time, and when he heard this, he hurriedly responded: "Yes, you can come with me." ”

At this time, Shao Qi hurriedly stepped forward and pointed to a carriage parked in the distance and said, "Then the little brother will show the way on this first carriage, and we will come later." ”

Yue Xiaopeng looked in the direction of his finger and couldn't help but be dumbfounded, is this a carriage?! This is a house, right? He hadn't seen it at this time, and there were two large carriages behind him that were covered.

When he approached the carriage, the guards sitting on either side of the coachman jumped out of the carriage and made room. Yue Xiaopeng tried to climb up the car, and the first time he sat in such a tall carriage, he slipped a little for a while and almost fell. At that moment, the guard beside him stretched out his hand and put him in place by holding his ribs.

The guard was still expressionless, but Yue Xiaopeng froze and didn't move for a long time. Knowing that the coachman asked, he stretched out his hand and pointed in a direction.

And the children and gentlemen also went to the back carriage and took their seats. When they entered the village, a group of forbidden troops who followed far behind set up camp on the opposite side of the tea house at the entrance of the village, and a hundred people were divided from the left and right, standing guard around the village to patrol.

The threshing floor is actually very close, right in the middle of the village, and the twenty-four families are gathered around the threshing floor, and there is no pattern to the distance between relatives near and far.

Because every harvest season, these 24 families threshed and dried grain at the same time, so the area of the threshing floor is very large, and it is more than enough to set up three big tents. The pearl looks at the sky, the sunset orange is red, and the fire is burning. At this point, it is estimated that it will be dark after the big tent is set up, and it will definitely be too late to cook.

So Mingzhu quietly instructed a guard to spend money to go to the village chief's house to order two tables of meals. Then, turning to the children, he said in a heavy tone, "Tell everyone the sad news, we have nothing to eat tonight." ”

"Huh?!" The children were shocked, and the chubby Lu Jiangtao was about to cry. I left in the morning, put some snacks at noon, and now I am almost hungry. After hearing the bad news announced by the husband, one or two felt extremely depressed.

"But!" Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Mingzhu immediately raised her voice: "I think smart children should be able to solve this problem by themselves!" Do you see these people around you?! They are all from this heroic village, and they are very friendly. Here, sir, I will give each of you ten cents, and you can take the money and go to these people's houses to buy some food. ”

Children know that money can buy things, but they have no idea about the purchasing power of money. Of course, a penny is equal to a string of sugar gourds, and none of them don't know about this. When I heard that I could spend money on food, I was very excited.

"Great! I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs today! ”

"I'm going to eat Gollum pork!"

……

Seeing that the children thought they could order food, Mingzhu didn't debunk their fantasies, but said: "Although you have money, people are not actually in business, so when you go to someone else's house, you must not pick and choose." Do you remember the etiquette that Mr. Zhang taught you as a guest?! The host of this place may not be demanding, but you must remember it yourself. A sweeter, more sincere child will be more likable.

Finally, in order not to disturb the family too much, the husband requested that each family should only go to two children at most. Alright, you guys are grouped up by yourselves! ”

After the children dispersed, they dispersed and walked towards the home of their fancies. One by one, the little clever ghosts almost found the richest families in the entire Zhuangzi. Obviously, the bigger the house and the cleaner the house, the more opportunities there will be to eat good food.

When they entered the house, two guards kept an eye on the house, lest something go wrong.

Mingzhu saw that the children had entered the house and did not come out for a while, so she knew that these families had temporarily taken them in. She hurried to the village chief's house with the gentlemen, to have dinner quickly, and to return before the children returned.

At the moment, the children seem to have entered a whole new world.

I saw Lu Jiangtao and Sun Liuxing, standing at the gate of the courtyard. Even though the door was not closed, the two children politely knocked on the doorframe.

Lu Jiangtao shouted loudly: "Hello! Is anyone here?! ”

At this time, Sun Liuxing whispered: "There must be someone!" Didn't you see the chimney of their house smoking?! ”

Lu Jiangtao rolled his eyes and replied: "Then how to say otherwise?!" Is there a personal problem coming out of it? ”

As he was talking, an aunt really came out of it: "Huh?!" Whose child is this?,Why haven't you seen it?! "Because I heard the word from the village chief, everyone in the village actually knew that there were many foreign children in the threshing floor. But seeing that the two children are cute, this aunt who has no children for many years has the heart to tease them to talk.

At this time, Lu Jiangtao said with a cute face: "This good-looking aunt, we are all kindergarten students. It's too late today and I don't have anything to eat, can I buy some at your house?! ”

When the aunt heard this, she immediately smiled and lost her eyebrows: "Oops! What a clever boy! But I'm not an aunt, you can just call me Aunt Chunhua! All come in! All come in! Don't say anything about whether to buy or not, although my family is not rich, it is still possible to add two pairs of chopsticks. ”

"Okay, Aunt Chunhua! Thank you! ”

Hearing this, the two children immediately happily followed into the door. Lu Jiangtao said as he walked: "No wonder Mr. told us that there are good people in Zhengqi Village, and Aunt Chunhua is a big good person!" ”

Hearing the noise outside, Chunhua's man asked in the kitchen, "Chunhua, who's coming?!" ”

Chunhua replied with a smile: "It's two half-person tall children from the threshing floor, who said they came to buy food!" ”

"That's fine! You greet first, I'll fry two more dishes! "The man doesn't ask much, anyway, no matter whether the conditions are good or not, he has to greet the guests wholeheartedly. Even if it's just two kids, it's the same.

Walking into the hall, a blind old lady was sitting in front of a dilapidated table of eight immortals. I saw that the old lady's eye sockets were deep-set, her eyeballs were withered, her face was terrifying, and she was skinny. Lu Jiangtao and Sun Liuxing were suddenly frightened and didn't dare to go over.

Aunt Chunhua sighed and was about to say something.

Seeing that the old lady who heard the movement suddenly had a number in her heart, she stood up and said gently and hoarsely: "Since there is a little guest in the house, then the old man will go into the house to eat." Don't freak out the kids. ”

"Grandma, don't go!!" The two children hurriedly stepped forward to stop the old lady, although they were still a little scared in their hearts, but they did not dare to forget the teacher's teachings.

"It was a real rude just now." Lu Jiangtao and Sun Liuxing both gave the old lady a salute, although they knew that the old lady couldn't see it, but there was no mistake in the etiquette. "It's us who disturbed the main house, how dare we let the main house avoid it?! If the gentleman found out, he would definitely be angry. Please also ask the grandmother for forgiveness. ”

When the old lady heard the two children say this, she sat down as she said: "It must be amazing to be able to teach such a sensible child." ”

Lu Jiangtao heard this and said proudly: "Of course! Our husband is naturally the best gentleman, I don't know how many children want to enter our kindergarten! ”

"Ahem!" Sun Liuxing hurriedly interrupted Lu Jiangtao's show-off, and said obediently: "This ten cents is what we must give before we come, and I ask the master not to shirk." ”

Chunhua was a little restrained by the politeness of the two children before, where can there be such a regular etiquette for the children of the Zhuang family? ! At this time, when he saw the two children taking the money out, he hurriedly spoke: "You are just children, go to your aunt's house for a light meal, where can you spend money?!" Wouldn't it be a joke if people knew?! ”

Sun Liuxing said sincerely: "Mr. instructed that you should not eat white food in people's homes. Please also ask for Aunt Chunhua's understanding. ”

Chunhua didn't know what to do for a while. Lu Jiangtao hurriedly opened the Dafa of selling cuteness: "Oh, Aunt Chunhua, you just accept it, otherwise Mr. will definitely scold us." ”

"But...... That's not going to be so much, twenty wen...... You can almost buy two catties of meat. "The spring flower was sprouted by the little fat man, but he was embarrassed to take such a big advantage.

At this time, Lu Jiangtao made persistent efforts, and opened his eyes pitifully: "If Aunt Chunhua doesn't accept it, we won't dare to eat, and we will be hungry today......

Seeing this situation, Chunhua gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, put away the copper coin and said, "That's okay!" You wait, I'll ask Uncle Gen to cook you a hard dish! ”
