Volume 1: The Ugly Girl Chapter 62 The Outside World

Before leaving, Laicai was still crying, and said that he wanted Sister Chrysanthemum's little pillow to sleep soundly!

Chrysanthemum was so angry in her heart, she comforted herself again and again, this little ancestor is leaving, let's not worry about him. So he hurriedly rushed into the room and got a small pillow plug to put him, so that he didn't cry anymore.

The Yang family sent them outside the village before turning back, while Aoki continued to carry the burden to Xiatangji.

As soon as they left, the chrysanthemums were relaxed, as if the clouds had covered the top of the sky just now, and the clouds and fog dispersed in a blink of an eye, and the breeze was slow.

After Aoki and the Yang family arrived, the family sat around the fire barrel and gossiped easily.

Chrysanthemum couldn't help but ask Yang; "Mother, why did the second uncle marry someone like the second uncle?"

Yang said angrily; "Humph! It's not. A few years ago, your grandmother's family was poor, and I got married, and your second uncle didn't marry a daughter-in-law. I married your second aunt at a very old age, and the baby has to look like something. Your second uncle looks at her and looks like a human, and she doesn't pay attention to any character. What's the use of looking good? The unluckiest thing to marry back is your grandmother - how angry she is! Fortunately, although she is heavy and her eyelids are shallow, she is timid, but she didn't make any big mistakes. She has calculated it like this, she has that difficult daughter-in-law, and she makes the family jump around, so she doesn't have to stay up! ”

Zheng Changhe said in his heart, this is your second brother's eye dragon is not good. Didn't I look at you back then, so I came to propose marriage, and I didn't marry a good daughter-in-law!

He couldn't help but be very satisfied with his own vision, and for a while he felt that his son and daughter were also obedient, which was unbearable as if he had made money.

Thinking about it like this, I felt that I was really lucky, and I couldn't help but laugh stupidly.

Chrysanthemum said again; "How did you get it when you grew up like this. The second uncle didn't care. ”

Yang raised the sole of his shoe in his hand and raised his head and said; "What's the matter? I can't twist my temperament when I'm so big. This baby follows her mother when she is young, your second aunt's temper is not supported when the oil bottle is poured, her eyelids are shallow, and the baby is making trouble before and after, can you develop this appearance? If it weren't for your grandmother still being able to control him, I'm afraid he would have to go to heaven. Even if it were, it was 'three days without fighting, going to the house and uncovering the tiles,; Besides, your grandmother is an old man, and she feels sorry for her grandson, and she is reluctant to be ruthless, at most a few shots. The bigger it is, the less it looks. ”

Chrysanthemum thought to herself, this is coming, and she can't bear it for a day; I don't know how my grandmother has been taking him all year round.

She didn't know that no matter how naughty this little baby was, it would not be appropriate to fall into the eyes of her father and grandmother. Although Wang felt that Laicai was a bit abrasive, he still liked his cleverness; Lin never thought there was anything wrong with her son.

Chrysanthemum is too lazy to talk about the second aunt and the money, and hopes that she will come from home less in the future - she has not been happy with her life when she comes to her own house, and she finally takes a breath and asks Aoki if the title deed can be done.

Aoki smiled and nodded, and took out two hard yellow paper deeds with bright red seals for his father and mother to show to Chrysanthemum.

Several people looked at it, and all of them were smiling. The second aunt is gone, which is a relief, and I am even happier to see this title deed.

Yang carefully put the title deed into a cloth bag, then stuffed it into the jar that usually holds money at home, and pressed it with a sandbag.

Aoki brought the package over and opened it to lay out the things he had brought back. There were no two boxes of snacks left, and they were all taken away by the money.

The chrysanthemum smelled the pure and fragrant sweet smell, and my heart felt warm - this is a genuine product of farming culture, purely handmade, without adding those messy things. In the previous life, the pastries in the city were sweet and greasy, fragrant and rushing, and always lacked some traditional taste.

She carefully opened a box of sesame crisps, the dark and shiny pieces, the rich sesame fragrance, hooked people's mouths, no wonder the boy from the rich couldn't pack them all home. The other two boxes are glutinous rice sugar cake and walnut cake, both of which also have a sweet fragrance. She was afraid that she would not be able to eat it if she opened it, so she didn't open it.

First, let my father and mother and my brother take a piece of sesame cake, and she held the rest with the box and ate it deliciously!

provoked the little black dog to spin around by the fire barrel, wagging its tail vigorously at the chrysanthemum, barking loudly. When the money is gone, it is also very happy. In the past two days, it has been tossed miserably, and then it runs away as soon as it sees it.

Seeing the little black dog like this, Chrysanthemum couldn't help but laugh; "What's it called? This snack you ate and stained your teeth. ”

Seeing that she was explaining to the dog in a matter-of-fact manner, Yang smiled and gave her a white look.

Aoki smiled comfortably when he saw that his sister was happy to eat; He also said that he had bought many seeds, some of whom he recognized and some of whom he did not.

Yang opened the seeds and said that this was a big green bean, that is, it was burst in August; This is a snow mushroom that grows in winter, but they don't grow much in the small green mountains.

The chrysanthemum was very happy to see it, this snow fern pickled is more fragrant than cabbage pickled, and it is the most refreshing.

"What's this?" Yang asked Aoki with another bag of seeds.

Chrysanthemum leaned up to take a look, feeling a little familiar, but couldn't remember what it was. In her previous life, she also left the countryside early because of her studies, and those farming things are also a little blurred in her memory, except for some things she loves to eat.

Aoki took it and made a fuss, thinking for a moment; "The shopkeeper said it was a carrot, and it was very sweet. It came from the north and was planted in winter. ”

Listening to his words, Chrysanthemum suddenly realized that this is not a carrot - a thing that can be eaten by people and fed to pigs. She couldn't help but think that all she was concerned about was people eating with pigs.

When I went to school in the city in my last life, she said that the carrots she grew were used to feed the pigs, and a group of classmates were so angry that they scolded the losers for being a serious dish on their dinner table.

In fact, how did they know that when the commodity economy was not so developed, they were not all self-sufficient, and they would not take everything to the city to sell at every turn. Her family chopped the carrots and the seedlings on them to feed the pigs, and occasionally washed a few and put them on the side of the rice pot to steam them, which were used to make children's snacks, but they were rarely fried and eaten like city people.

Aoki saw that Chrysanthemum was stunned and hurriedly asked; "My sister has seen it?" After asking, I felt that my sister was so stupid that she didn't go out, where would she ever see this thing.

Sure enough, Chrysanthemum said; "I haven't seen it. Let's plant it and try it, and it won't be done. Brother, did you hear it wrong, in this cold weather, how did this thing grow? Didn't you plant it in the fall, and harvest it in the winter. ”

The shopkeeper must have made a mistake, this carrot was sown in autumn, and if it is planted this winter, where will the seedlings emerge, and they will not all freeze to death.

Aoki thought about it and nodded; "I'm afraid the shopkeeper made a mistake. Otherwise, let's plant some first, and if it doesn't work, we can only plant it next year. ”

Yang said with great experience; "He must have been mistaken, and he tried in vain."

So he wrapped it up and put it aside.

Zheng Changhe asked Aoki Qinghui what the county seat was like

Zheng Changhe asked Aoki Qinghui what the county seat was like, and whether it was going well this time.

Aoki elaborated on them one by one. According to him, he also met with Hu County Lingli of Qinghui County.

Chrysanthemum asked incredulously; "You go to get a land deed, and the county lord can still meet you?"

Aoki laughed; "Where is the county master to meet me, it turned out that I and Uncle Gengtian were looking for the master to apply for the title deed, and I didn't want the county master to be there, so he asked me a lot of things."

Zheng Changhe asked excitedly; "What did the county master ask you about?"

Aoki was obviously very impressed by this Hu Xianling, he recalled with a smile; "The county lord asked me how this year's harvest was and how my family was doing; I heard that my father broke his leg, and when he saw that he was sick and in debt, he worriedly asked his father if he was okay now, and he could live at home. Uncle Gengtian said that our family is very hardworking, and we can't avoid it, so we get up early and do some small business greedily, and save money to buy land. The county magistrate was also happy and asked me if I had married a daughter-in-law. He heard that our village had set up a village school, and invited a master to teach the children to read, and happily praised Uncle Ploughing Tian for a meal. ”

Chrysanthemum thought to herself, it seems that this Hu County Commander is a good official, he cares about the people's livelihood very much, and he asks practical questions.

Aoki said to them again; Hu County Commander also said that he will still be a county magistrate in Qinghui County in the coming year. Of course I was glad to hear it. But Uncle Gengtian later told me that the Hu County Commander did a good job, but he didn't promote his official because he didn't know how to flatter the official, and he was very unhappy with the Hu County Order! ”

Chrysanthemum secretly said, the water of this officialdom is deep, where can this sentence explain.

Zheng Changhe Road; "This is embarrassing, we don't want him to be promoted, and we hope that he will be promoted."

Yang gave him a blank look and said; "What's the use of your Bawang? Whether he is promoted or not, you don't even think about it. He wants to be promoted, and you cry and shout for him to stay, and he can't stay; If he can't be promoted, it's useless for you to look forward. ，，

Aoki and Chrysanthemum couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, and Zheng Changhe also laughed and scratched the back of his head.

Aoki took the initiative to say something about Qinghui County. It is said that Qinghui's pork is only about 16 or 7 yuan a catty, and the price of rice is not expensive.

"Uncle Gengtian said that this is all due to the good management of Hu County's order. The pig is only two pennies a pair, and no one has bought it yet. This time we met the shopkeeper of Qinghui Restaurant in the city. He told me that their owner had already set up a shop in the city and was going to open a restaurant, and in the future, their pigs would be bought in Qinghui County. Xiatangji only kills a few pigs a day, so they won't fight with our family, so as not to affect my mother's business. He also said that the dishes that Chrysanthemum taught him, except for the pork belly and chicken, the other dishes are not ready to be sold expensive, and they are still cheaper than the meat ones, and they also save the time when the dish becomes popular, so that the pig will go into the water and increase the price.

Chrysanthemum secretly praised the Chen family's thoughtfulness, just like when she priced the pig water for a penny and a spoonful. The family is still credible, and they didn't care about her family's life or death, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

She looked at Aoki with a smile, she didn't expect him to know how to do market research, although it was not that step yet, and it would not hurt to think about these things in the future, and it would not hurt to look farther.

She saw that her brother was talking eloquently and reasonably, obviously there were some things that he deliberately paid attention to, and she was even happier It seemed that her brother's horizons were broadening and developing towards a set goal. Her sister can rely on him for happiness in the future.

So she smiled quietly and leaned over him, shoving a cold little hand into his armpit.

Aoki also smiled and wrapped her other small hand in the warm palm of her big hand, while continuing to tell her father and mother about what she had seen and heard in Qinghui County, the county seat is very large, and rich lords all ride in carriages; There are a lot of people at Qinghui Wharf, and it is very lively...
