Old Gao Fang Daping drank half a bowl of wine, and said to Lu Yu: "Da Yu, it's quite scary for you to lose your temper." ”

Lu Yu smiled slightly, and hurriedly asked, "I just heard that you guys are making noise outside, what's the matter?" ”

Fang Daping told the seven regimental training leaders to go into the village to ask for food, and told Xu Kaifu about the nonsense behind him. He shook his head in vain.

Yan Yubai said: "The world is getting more and more chaotic, and if everyone doesn't unite again, life will be even more difficult." ”

"But no, you said that these bad goods in our village are afraid of losing money by doing anything, and they are afraid that they will not be able to take advantage of anything." Lao Gao is dozens of years old, and it has long been commonplace for all kinds of unbearable situations in the village and all kinds of dirty behaviors of the villagers.

Fang Daping said: "We also know that Da Yu said this on purpose, this strongman is really going to enter the village, can Da Yu still care?" ”

Lu Yu smiled and didn't speak, but thought in his heart: "No matter how great your ability is, the people in the village don't want to save themselves, how much can you manage?" ”

After lunch, Lu Yu picked up two large pieces of pork, a pair of pig hearts, and a large intestine, and wanted to send them to the town to Lu Ming. When he was going out, Yan Xi'an said that he would also go to the town together, saying that he wanted to buy something.

Lu Yu is very willing, and Yan Xiding has a rare request to follow, a meal, this kid is familiar with Fang Weili of the same age, and he will go to Fang Weili's house to play in the afternoon.

There are very few shops open in the town now, one of which sells farm implements and seeds, and there are also some grocery stores that sell needle cloth pieces. As for the customers, it's light to say that the door is full of birds, and now almost the entire street can be full of birds.

Yan Xi'an said that she would buy a few feet of cloth and needlework scissors. Lu Yu asked her what she was doing with these things, and Yan Xi'an said that she was making clothes.

Lu Yu smiled: "Xi'an is good, he can make clothes." ”

Yan Xi'an snorted: "You laugh at me, knowing that I won't." ”

Lu Yu scratched his head: "I didn't know you wouldn't." ”

Yan Xi'an glanced at him again: "My mother will, I'll let her teach me." ”

Lu Yu nodded, and Yan Xi'an said again: "Uncle, why don't you wear the clothes that the beautiful young lady gave you?" ”

"Which beautiful young lady?" Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Did you say that girl?" I don't like that dress. ”

"Why don't you like it? I think it's very well done. ”

Lu Yu shook his head and said, "I have clothes to wear, and I don't like to wear new ones." ”

"Uncle." Yan Xi'an's voice suddenly became soft, and she said, "I don't see that you have any new clothes, when I learn to make clothes, I'll make one for you first, okay?" ”

Lu Yu's heart was crisp, and he couldn't help but feel ecstatic, and he pretended to be casual and nodded and smiled: "Thank you very much." ”

"Hee-hee, didn't you say you don't like to wear new clothes?"

"Well, did I say that?"

"What you just said said said that you have clothes to wear and don't like to wear new ones."

……

In addition to some seeds, there was nothing Lu Yu wanted to buy in the farm tool store, so he picked some cabbage and radish seeds, it was almost winter, and there was only one that could be planted. The shopkeeper knew Lu Yu and didn't take any money from him, so Lu Yu cut a piece of meat for him.

Originally, there were two shops selling cloth in Dunlin Town, one selling silk and silk, and the other selling cotton and linen coarse cloth, and the shop that sold silk and silk had long since closed, and the other was still open.

At this time, not only the price of food was extremely high, but even cloth was much more expensive than usual. When Yan Xi'an went out, Mrs. Yan gave her a lot of silver. Neither of them was very good at bargaining, and spent more than a tael of silver, bought more than a zhang of cotton cloth, and asked for some needlework and thread. Lu Yu didn't know how expensive this price was, anyway, since he was a child, the clothes he wore might be worth two or three taels of silver.

After buying things, Lu Yu was going to Zhang's house, and he felt that Yan Xi'an seemed inconvenient to follow him, but he was afraid that she would not be safe on the street alone. After thinking about it, Lu Yu said, "Xi'an, I'm going to my brother's house in a while." ”

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

"His name is Lu Ming, do you call him Uncle Ming?"

Yan Xi'an smiled: "It's not good, I'm going to call him second uncle." ”

"Okay, let's go to your second uncle's house."

When he arrived at Zhang's house, Mrs. Zhang said that Lu Ming and Zhang Qiye had gone out, and Lu Yu put down the five dozen catties of meat and pig hearts and intestines he brought, and Mrs. Zhang insisted on giving him money.

Lu Yu refused to ask for it, saying that he was not short of money now, and after a polite while, Lu Ming came back. In fact, Lu Yu doesn't like to push around politely at all, but he feels that he can't collect this money himself, and he can't do anything, otherwise, if he sends something over in the future, it will feel different.

When Lu Ming saw this meat, his eyes lit up, and he smiled: "This is a good thing, we haven't eaten meat for a long time, and my girls have lost weight recently." ”

Mrs. Zhang said: "Ming, your brother always sends things home, and he doesn't want to give him money, you don't think it's good." ”

Lu Ming said: "Mom, what's wrong with this, my brother is no one else." After a pause, he said, "Don't we still have a lot of corn at home, I'll take a bag and let my brother take it back." ”

Lu Yu hurriedly said no, he still had food at home. But Lu Ming ignored him and went back to the house to carry a bag of cornmeal.

Lu Ming saw Yan Xi'an and asked Lu Yu, "Is this the girl from the Yan family?" Lu Yu nodded.

Yan Xi'an has been standing quietly on the side, never speaking, looking very cramped and nervous.

Lu Yu smiled and said, "Xi'an, this is your second uncle Lu Ming." ”

Yan Xi'an blushed and called softly: "Second uncle is good." ”

Lu Ming looked at Yan Xi'an, then at Lu Yu, suddenly smiled and said hello.

Seeing that Yan Xi'an was extremely uncomfortable staying at Zhang's house, Lu Yu said a few more words, and left with a bag of cornmeal. On the way back, Yan Xi'an said, "Uncle, it's not fun in the town. ”

In fact, Lu Yu didn't like to stay at Lu Ming's house for a long time, he said: "Then next time I come, you don't want to follow." ”

"That's not going to work, I'm going to follow." Yan Xi'an seemed to be getting more and more sticky to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu smiled slightly, and after a while, he said again: "Xi'an, you won't go back this year, right?" ”

"Are you going back to Jinhua City?" Yan Xi'an shook his head: "No, my father said that this year is too chaotic, and I will stay at your house until next year." She looked at Lu Yu, her eyes flashed, and she asked with a smile, "Uncle, aren't you going to drive us back?" ”

"How come, you want to stay in my house, I'...... I can't ask for it. ”

"Hehe, I knew that Uncle wouldn't let us go back." Yan Xi'an said: "Uncle, do you think our food is really running out?" ”

Lu Yu didn't hide it: "Yes, the rice at home can still be eaten until next spring." "Spring is the season of sowing, but not the season of harvesting, and although it is full of hope, hope cannot be eaten.

"Uncle, you don't have to worry, from today onwards, Xiding and I will only eat one meal a day, so that we will have enough food."

Lu Yu hurriedly shook his head: "This is not good, you can't save food." ”

"But there's not enough food, so what should I do?"

Lu Yu said: "Xi'an, I think that when the teleportation array is arranged, we can go to the valley to open fields and plant rice, so that we can harvest rice by ourselves in the future." "Compared to corn, rice is much more delicious.

Yan Xi'an said: "But you haven't had time to go to the mountains recently, how long will it take for the teleportation array to be arranged?" ”

Lu Yu was not unavailable, but he didn't dare to leave Yangshan Village for too long, and he was always worried that robbers would enter the village. Lu Yu suddenly thought of another question, so he asked Yan Xi'an: "Xi'an, I often go into the mountains for a few days and don't come back, did your parents ask me what I did?" ”

"There must be a question, I told them, saying that the uncle went into the mountain to practice."

Lu Yu nodded, thinking that this excuse was really good.

After a while, Yan Xi'an said, "Uncle, next time you go to the valley, will you take me with you?" ”

Lu Yu said, "Why? Even if I want to go into the valley now, I will go on the same day and return on the same day, aren't you afraid of being tired? ”

"I don't have to walk, why am I tired? Hee-hee......"

"Well, I can take you into the valley, but it's also far up and down the mountain?"

Yan Xi'an shook his head: "I'm not leaving, I want you to carry me, uncle." ”

Lu Yu's old face turned red instantly, and he couldn't speak. Yan Xi'an seemed to like to see his embarrassed appearance very much, and said, "Uncle, don't you like to carry me up and down the mountain?" ”

"Hello...... Like. Lu Yu's face turned even redder, and he felt as if he had been molested.

Yan Xi'an smiled: "That's it, okay, you will take me into the valley tomorrow." ”

Lu Yu said: "Also...... It's okay, but Xiding will also want to go. ”

"He dares to go!!" Yan Xi'an waved his pink little fist and said, "If he dares to hurry again, you see that I won't beat him and cry." ”

When she got home, Mrs. Yan had already salted all the other pork and smoked it again over a charcoal fire. Fresh meat is marinated and then grilled to remove moisture, which can be stored for a longer time.

As soon as Yan Xi'an got home, he pestered his mother to teach him to cut cloth and make clothes. Yan Xi'an said that she will make a set of cotton clothes for everyone in the family this year.

Just as they were about to cut cloth, Yan Xi'an found that they had forgotten to buy scissors, and when they went to Xihuang Village from Jinhua City, they had scissors, but when they moved to Yangshan Village, they forgot to pretend to be luggage.

Yan Xi'an asked Lu Yu if there were scissors at home.

Lu Yu said that there seemed to be an old pair of scissors in the room where he slept. He was digging in the backyard and wanted to turn over a few more vegetable gardens, so Yan Xi'an ran over to find it himself.

But after a while, Yan Xi'an went to the backyard again, with his hands behind his back, and stood in front of Lu Yu.

Lu Yu saw Yan Xi'an's strange expression and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Uncle, what do you think I found in your room?"

"What? Don't see the scissors? ”

Yan Xi'an stretched out his hand, but he was holding a wreath of wild flowers and weeds.

Lu Yu's face turned red again, and he smiled hard and said, "This ...... This, I saw that this thing had not withered and yellowed, so I didn't throw it away. ”

"I know, uncle, you are reluctant to throw it." At this time, the sunset will be slanting, and the warm and soft sunlight after autumn is shining on Yan Xi'an's face, her white cheeks as jade, and her eyes as bright as stars are all smeared with a faint layer of golden red.
