Chapter 26: Selling Ginger 1
The people have never fought with the officials, and they still have to live with the court! It's not that they want to accept their fate, but in this era of respect and inferiority, the common people put it bluntly, what is the difference between it and the fish on the chopping board?
Jiang Yu'er broke her brother's hand and said, "Brother! You're just brainless. Let's talk about our own house behind closed doors, and who can listen to it. What's more, if a person has a mouth, if he can't speak freely, what is the use of growing it? ”
In fact, it's not that Jiang Yu'er doesn't have a good mouth, but the era she lives in is completely different from this era, where not only freedom of speech, but also freedom of life. Where is it like this era, you have to speak carefully, and if you are not careful, you may lose your head. Perhaps, it was not just one person's head that was lost, it was the family's, and no one was spared within the nine clans.
"That being said, don't you know what it means to have ears on a wall?" Jiang Amao still disagreed with his sister's statement, and he was still a little cautious when he spoke. It's just that what he doesn't know is that this ear of the wall is now sitting on the roof of their house, listening to the conversation of the three brothers and sisters.
Yunlai Inn.
"You said they would bring something to town the day after tomorrow, and this thing can keep you warm?" Luo Yunshuo was also shocked by his subordinates' words. You must know that every winter, the northern Dazi is ready to move, if nothing else, just because the soldiers of their Dayue Kingdom are unable to move an inch in the north in winter. If that thing can really work, does it mean that their soldiers, in the north, can also resist the invasion of foreign enemies in winter?
"Yes, the subordinate listened to what the girl told her brother. Moreover, the subordinates also saw it, and their family used that thing to cook and eat with food. The man in black recounted everything he had seen.
Luo Yunshuo looked at the man in black on the side, and said after half a sound: "You go back and watch first, be optimistic." Here I will arrange. ”
The man in black answered and retreated.
"Someone!" Luo Yunshuo shouted outside, and a man in black appeared in front of him.
"Did you hear what Lin said just now?"
"Back to my master, I heard you." The man in black replied.
"Arrange two people, and none of the things that the family sells the day after tomorrow can fall into the hands of others."
The man in black was puzzled: "What does the master mean?" He made a gesture to wipe his neck.
Luo Yunshuo was angry: "You brain! ”
The man in black came to his senses, nodded and retreated. It turns out that the master's intention is not to rob, nor to kill people. I just want to buy what they have in their hands.
On this day, because his brother Jiang Amao wanted to help build a new house. The matter of selling ginger fell on Jiang Yuer's head, and when the boy saw that his sister was going to town alone, he wanted to follow him in all kinds of coquettish and cute ways. In the past, when his brothers and sisters went, he was left alone at home. Today, my brother is at home, and he also wants to go to the town to see what it's like.
Jiang Yu'er couldn't stop him from stalking, so she could only nod and agree in the end. When she came out with ginger, the little guy had already taken on a new look, the clothes were the little cotton jacket that Jiang Yuer had newly made for him, the pants were also the small cotton pants that Jiang Yuer sewed for him, and the feet were wearing new shoes sent by the second aunt a few days ago.
Not to mention, some garbage and sloppy little guys, this change, the clean little face looks a lot better. Sure enough, the sentence was answered, and people rely on clothes, and horses rely on saddles.
"Yo yo yo! Who is this? How did we clean up so well today? I almost blinded my dog's eyes. Jiang Yuer deliberately quipped.
Jiang Ziming was told by his sister, and his little face was a little unbearable. Bai Jing's little face suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment, glared at her sister angrily and said, "Sister, why are you so annoying?" ”
Jiang Yu'er also followed his example and made a shy expression, which made Jiang Amao, who was about to go out, laugh for a while. Jiang Ziming couldn't hang up anymore, glared at his brother, then at his sister, and said, "I'm angry, I really ignore you." With that, his mouth pursed and his head tilted to the side.
By the time the siblings arrived in town, the streets were already bustling with activity. The shouting on the street and the sound of bargaining made Jiang Ziming very happy. It's just that when I went out, my brother and sister explained that when I got to the town, I had to follow my sister all the time, and I couldn't run around.
Although curious, I can only peek at it. followed his sister's footsteps and walked forward.
Because it was a new object, Jiang Yu'er became an acquaintance and had the idea of being easy to do, and took her younger brother directly in the direction of Baicaotang.
"Yo yo yo! Jiang girl, how long has it been since you came to my Baicao Hall? The shopkeeper Zhan smiled like a Buddha, and when he looked at Jiang Yu'er, he saw the God of Wealth.
Jiang Yu'er smiled and didn't say anything. After the two exchanged a few words of greeting, Jiang Yu'er took out the ginger she was carrying in her bag and handed it to the shopkeeper Zhan: "Uncle Zhan, please take a look, do you accept this thing in Baicaotang?" ”
The shopkeeper Zhan is an old man, and when he sees what is in front of him, he is also puzzled. He looked at Jiang Yu'er for some reason and said, "Girl, what is this?" ”
Jiang Yu'er smiled and said, "Uncle Zhan, this is ginger." It can ward off the cold and strengthen the spleen and stomach. It can be used for medicinal purposes, or as a condiment, for food. ”
No matter how well-informed the shopkeeper Zhan is, he has never seen this thing, let alone heard of the usefulness of this thing. Now when I heard Jiang Yu'er say this, I suddenly became really interested. "Girl, do you know how to use it?"
"Nature knows. Edible is used for cooking, medicinal, and this has to be seen by the doctor himself. I'm just a farmer, and it's up to the doctor to decide how to use it. Jiang Yu'er also knew that medicine could be big or small, and she didn't dare to take credit.
After listening to Jiang Yu'er's words, the shopkeeper Zhan was more or less a little disappointed, but he heard Jiang Yu'er's words: "Uncle Zhan may not know that when this thing is cold, boil a bowl of ginger soup and drink it, and it will definitely be able to dispel the cold and dehumidify you." Reduces the likelihood of wind chill. If you are weak and cold, you can also cut a small piece of ginger every night and boil water to soak your feet. Quasi-ensure the comfort of the whole body. ”
Jiang Yu'er was just about to say something more, when she saw that the door curtain was opened from the inside. A man who seemed to be an apprentice came out, whispered a few words in the ear of the shopkeeper Zhan, the shopkeeper stood up, and said embarrassedly that there was something in the inner hall, and asked Jiang Yu'er and the brothers to wait first, and he would go back as soon as he went.
After seeing the shopkeeper Zhan leave, Jiang Ziming finished eating the pastry in his hand, looked up at his sister and asked, "Sister, can our ginger really be sold?" "The first time he followed his sister out to do things, his eyes were full of curiosity.
