Chapter Twenty-Four: Two Goes to Peace Town
The next day, Xiang Tianqi made a spicy noodle at the strong request of the old man, and I don't know why the old man had a soft spot for the opposite side. In this way, the noodles at home may not be eaten for a few days.
In the afternoon, Xiang Tianqi and Cuiying went to the field to find more hemp grass, and asked He Lao to tell the people in the village that if they found this kind of grass in the future, they would send it directly to He's hometown, because most of the hemp grass in the village had been put into the yard of He's hometown, so there was a strange smell as soon as they entered the far door, but fortunately, there were no people in their hometown to visit the door, otherwise they would have to smoke people away.
At this time, he and his grandmother didn't go out, so they collected hemp and hemp grass at home, dried hemp and hemp grass, and after drying, they picked off the hemp pepper and put it in the basket. Qi girl can say that some of these are reserved for seeds, and some fields will be reserved for planting next year, and some will be processed to become more delicious seasonings.
Because there were people in the village who helped to harvest the hemp and hemp grass, so the next day, all the hemp and hemp grass were harvested, and Xiang Tianqi, Cuiying, He Sheng and his second sister-in-law all came to help dry the hemp and hemp grass, and it was almost finished in the evening.
At dinner in the evening, Xiang Tianqi said to He Lao that he planned to go to the town again the next day, to talk to Brother He Qiang about the house, and then he planned to go to Zhenwei Restaurant again, because their current start-up capital is too small, although 35 taels is enough for an ordinary farmer to eat for several years, but if you plan to rent a house to do business, it is difficult to say.
As for what to do in Zhenwei, Xiang Tianqi originally planned to use the method of cooking with sesame pepper in exchange for the cost of doing business, but later gave up. First, this is her current hole card, and even if she wants to promote the pepper, it has to be after her, so she didn't come up with a way to do it for a long time.
"Forget it, no, I can't find a house tomorrow, there is always a way to do the rest." After all, I'm a new social human! I don't have to worry about it, I can't just sell vegetables, but I have to think about what kind of reason to use.
After eating, everyone was tired for a day, so they went to bed early, and the next morning Xiang Tianqi and Cuiying took the dry food that they made late and went on the road, with the lesson of the last time, this time Xiang Tianqi did not walk again, but walked for a while to the ox cart in the next village, saying that it was the next village, but it was not too close, and it took an hour to arrive.
The two gave the coachman 6 cents and got on the ox cart and left, and there were three or four people from the village on the ox cart, some from the coachman from his own village, and some who came and took the cart like them. It's a lot like a modern country bus! Xiang Tianqi was full of nostalgia, although he had only been here for a few days, but at this moment, he missed the world that was very cold but extremely familiar.
The ox carts were all women, so there were many topics to talk about, and after a while, the cart was lively. An older man asked Xiang Tianqi about them
"Where are the two girls from?"
Although Cui Ying started to change her convenience, she was still facing the people close to her, so if she had to talk along the way, she had to rely on Xiang Tianqi.
"Auntie, we are from Heshi Village. It's a bit far, I guess you haven't heard of it. ”
"Oh, Heshi Village, that's really far away, I remember that this Heshi Village suddenly appeared a few decades ago, but it rarely appeared in front of people, and gradually everyone forgot that there was such a village." The woman's words made Xiang Tianqi frightened, it turned out that He's Village was not native but foreign.
"Yes, Auntie, you have a good memory." Although I was surprised in my heart, I couldn't show it on my face.
"Two girls, are you going to the town to buy something?" Although I don't know anything about He's, they go to the town to either buy things or sell things or visit relatives, and they don't bring anything to buy things.
"No, our eldest brother works in the town and hasn't come back for a long time, and the family is worried, so let's let the sisters go and have a look." Even a simple peasant can't speak 100% to someone he has just met.
"Oh, that's it, then you can be careful, although the town is peaceful, but you are a girl's family after all." The woman may have believed and asked them a few words.
"Thank you, Auntie, we will."
After saying that, Xiang Tianqi stopped talking, the woman was still a little blind, and when she saw that Xiang Tianqi didn't want to say more, she didn't say anything, and turned her head to chat with the people from her village. As for the other people in the car, everyone has paid attention to them since Xiang Tianqi started chatting with the woman.
Heshi Village, a mysterious village nearby, no one has ever been to it, but I have heard the driver who ran away talk about it, but I know that it is very poor, and I don't know anything else.
So when the face appeared, everyone paid attention to it, and when they knew that they were from the mysterious Heshi Village, they paid even more attention to the two of them, although they were talking, but they were secretly looking at themselves.
After Xiang Tianqi and the woman finished speaking, everyone withdrew their gazes, but at this time, the discussion was about this Heshi Village and these two girls who suddenly appeared, and the Heshi Village, which had never appeared in front of people, suddenly appeared today, everyone was very curious, and even some smart people realized that it was unusual.
No matter what they thought, at this time, Xiang Tianqi was immersed in the shock that the woman gave her just now, from the conversation just now, she knew that He's Village was foreign, and the time was not often, and they looked extraordinary, so what was their identity? Why did you come to such a place?
Xiang Tianqi lowered his head and thought about it, but he didn't see Cui Ying, who had turned pale since he heard the woman speak.
Thinking about the problem, I feel that time flies very quickly, and I don't feel the bumps, so I don't have to count the sheep anymore.
It wasn't until the driver said that Xiang Tianqi came back to his senses when he let people get out of the car, and then he realized that something was wrong with Cuiying.
"Cuiying, what's wrong with you? Suddenly so ugly? Xiang Tianqi asked worriedly.
"It's okay, maybe I didn't eat in the morning, my stomach is a little upset, and I don't know why I'm so squeamish." Cui Ying barely smiled.
Xiang Tianqi looked at Cuiying's face a bit like motion sickness, and felt that it might be because he hadn't eaten in the morning and had an empty stomach, which caused motion sickness in the car. So I didn't suspect anything else.
"Then let's find a place to rest first, you drink some water first, eat something, let's come by car today, there is plenty of time, don't be in such a hurry." It's autumn now, and the sun isn't very hot, so Xiang Tianqi didn't go far to find a shady place, but helped Cuiying to sit on a clean stone nearby.
Cui Ying didn't refuse, and the two rested not far from the place where they got off.
The last time I came, I was all walking, and it was almost noon when I got to town. I walked a little bit and then took a bullock cart today, so it saved a lot of time to get to town, and it looks like it should be more than 9 o'clock in modern times at the moment.
The two of them ate something during the break, and after resting, their physical strength recovered a little, and seeing that Cuiying's face was better, Xiang Tianqi said, "Can you go?" If you can't go, we'll rest again, and if you can, we'll go to Brother He first. ”
Cuiying nodded, and Xiang Tianqi helped Cuiying up. After getting up, Cui Ying insisted on going by herself without Xiang Tianqi's support. She was just looking for an excuse, not really uncomfortable, Xiang Tianqi took care of her so much that she felt very guilty, and it was very strange for people to walk with her!
Cui Ying insisted, Xiang Tianqi had no choice but to give up, but he still kept an eye on her. After all, motion sickness can be big or small, and Cuiying doesn't know if the motion sickness is serious this time.
The two walked to the town, it was still the same as last time, the town was very lively, although it was a little early today, but it was still very lively. But it was more lively and crowded than last time.
The two of them walked on the road, this time there was enough time, and there were a lot more things that they hadn't seen last time, so the two of them stopped and walked like shopping. But this time I didn't buy anything.
Xiang Tianqi has nothing to buy, and after getting used to seeing all kinds of modern high-tech, he has no interest in this kind of backward things that can't be done. But Cui Ying didn't want to buy it. Although she didn't ask for the 100 yuan she gave her father after she went back last time, the 100 yuan was not much, and it was gone as soon as it was spent, and Xiang Tianqi would definitely pay for it, but now that the money they have for business is not enough, how can she let Xiang Tianqi spend money on her again. So both of them are just passing by.
Turning the corner, I suddenly found a person in front of me who seemed to be with my eldest brother, and I walked in to see if it was true.
I saw all kinds of wooden products in front of him, probably made before, they were a little old, and the types were a little small, just some desks, basin stools, etc.
"And big brother, why are you here?" Xiang Tianqi walked over and asked.
He Qiang raised his head when he heard the voice, found that it was the two of them, and said, "It's okay, today in the town market, the master asked me to come over and set up a stall to sell things, and pull some business by the way." ”
Xiang Tianqi saw that He Qiang had a different color on his face when he spoke, and knew that things would not be so simple, but the place was not right, so he had to follow him.
"Oh, that's it, then with big brother, when will it end? Cuiying and I came to you today for something. ”
"Well, let's go, it's okay here anyway." He Qiang got up as he spoke, and began to load things onto the cart.
Xiang Tianqi and Cui Ying helped, and then followed He Qiang back.
"Why did you come back so early and the stuff was sold out? I still received business. It was a young man who spoke, in a domineering tone and with contempt on his face.
"There's someone at home, so I'm back early, master." He Qiang said ignoring the contempt of the young man in front of him.
"The master is in the back room, and the family came back early, so you should think this is your own home. Cut, if it's irrelevant, get out of the way as soon as possible. What are you doing when you climb the high branches? "Young people are getting harder.
Although He Qiang was angry, he endured it, walked to the back room, didn't know what he said, and his face was even more ugly when he came out.
When he walked up to Xiang Tianqi and the others, he only said "let's go", and then went out without saying anything.
When they went out, Xiang Tianqi and the others found a place to sit down, so that they had the opportunity to ask Heqiang.
"And big brother, what's going on these days? Wasn't it okay last time? Xiang Tianqi wondered, how could it have changed so much in the past few days.
(What's wrong with our big brother Heqiang?) This time it was a big change for him, it wasn't originally arranged like this, but it was written and suddenly became like this, and it was good to simply arrange it this way. Another: Today I just started to code words, and suddenly the keyboard dropped a key!! Brothers should know that if you play games often, the S key is easy to break!! Ahhh My wicked brother!! Also, on the first day of exercising the swan arm today, I only had one feeling, that is, I was like a goose with folded wings!!!!! Woo, why are you so sad today? )
