Chapter 113: On the eve of the storm

The musk cut off the fragrant roe deer, Liulang took it to Xu Jiang to see.

If this musk is according to the market price, it is worth seven or eight taels of silver.

However, musk is a rare and rare item, and it is a pity to sell it like this, so Rokuro put the musk away and did not plan to send it to the pharmacy.

But somehow, the matter of Hemai's musk in his hand was known to the villagers of Xiaoqing Village, and within two days, a woman named Zhao Xiang in the village revealed her desire to borrow musk through the Qin family.

Zhao Xiang is the daughter-in-law of Tian Er in the village, Tian Er is the poorest household in Xiaoqing Village, the old and the young, and the family of seven is so hungry that they are screaming.

People who can't even eat enough come to borrow musk, doesn't that make it clear that there is no borrowing or repayment?

One or two musks are worth a lot of money, not to mention, one or two musks can't have any effect, not to mention that you need about three taels of musk!

He Mai smacked his tongue and didn't agree to borrow it, but he refused without exporting.

"Who's sick in her family?" He Mai asked Qin.

The Qin family sighed quietly, "The only seedling in the family, Xiao Wu!" The child was born with a weak body, and it has been commonplace to feel distressed and paralyzed in the chest in recent years, and the family can't even afford to eat, where can I afford to invite Langzhong? As soon as the disease dragged on, it became even more serious now. ”

"According to the generation, that kid still has to call you aunt, but it's a pity that it's less than fifteen, hey......" Qin sighed faintly, turned his head and entered the house.

The musk belongs to their younger couple, and the right to borrow it or not is in their hands. The Qin family is kind, but he is very clear, and he doesn't say anything superfluous.

The Qin family didn't mention this matter anymore, and two days passed in a blink of an eye, just when the Tian family saw that their son, who was lying on the bed and covering his heart, was about to die, Xu Jiang entered the Tian family with a sufficient amount of musk.

Taking the pulse, acupuncture, and feeding medicine, thanks to his wonderful doctor, Tian Xiaowu was pulled back from the line of death.

The family was grateful to Xu Jiang, but Xu Jiang's face was pale: "Don't thank me, it's the meaning of Liulang's family!" You don't have to thank them. Well, the market price of these three taels of musk can cost two taels of silver, and you must not forget to pay it back in the future! ”

This musk was borrowed and saved a young life, and it was worth it.

It's just that as soon as this precedent was set, there were more and more people who continued to borrow things from their little couple.

It's okay to borrow it once or twice, what makes Hemai angry and funny the most is that this Aunt Fang came three times a day and asked her to borrow Xiao Hei to catch mice!

He Mai laughed angrily, "Aunt Fang, there aren't many big cats in the village, that's the expert at catching rats, you borrow Xiao Hei to catch mice, maybe catch rats or turn over your house!" ”

Aunt Fang didn't care, "Huh! Those big cats were rolling in the coal heaps and muddy ditches all day long, and they were so dirty that I couldn't catch them! You lend me your dog, and I'll pay you back if I catch a mouse!" ”

He Mai glanced at Xiao Hei in the digging pit at the corner of the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Don't, Aunt Fang, if you really can't catch it, I will catch one for you when I see Ming'er, Xiao Hei...... Forget it! ”

It is said that dogs are nosy with rats, and now Aunt Fang is calling her to borrow a dog, she really doesn't want Xiao Hei to take care of this stall!

Weekday mornings are always the busiest, going up the mountain to collect medicine, hunting, and going down the mountain to turn over the ground and water the bamboo rats to feed some corn and green beans.

Liulang stayed in the bamboo forest, and He Mai and Xiao Hei went back to get food. After making lunch, Xiao Hei walked in front with a rice jar in his mouth, and He Mai went to bring water to Liulang with water in his hand, and ate lunch together.

In the vegetable garden outside the house for a while, all kinds of fresh vegetables and fruits are growing gratifyingly, and Hemai finishes the camp with a small hoe every day, and then goes to Qin's place to help.

After finishing the farm work in the Qin family's field, the ancestors and grandchildren sat outside the courtyard, basking in the sun, and the Qin family taught Hemai needlework and sewing clothes hand in hand.

Those two pieces of cloth were enough to make several sets of clothes, and He Mai simply planned to let the Qin family bring Lin Helin's, so that everyone in the family would have new clothes, which would be fair.

Every day, when the mountain grass comes, he talks and laughs with the Hemai Qin clan, and the time passes in the blink of an eye.

After dinner, it's time to go to bed, and when the lights go out, it's always a moment of joy and anticipation.

Stuffing his little hand into Rokuro's hand, the two of them could clearly see each other's silhouettes in the dark, and feel every slight change in each other's breathing.

These are always shy and abrasive, but on their bodies, they seem incomparably beautiful and pure.

Rokuro always maintained a peaceful appearance like water, restraining further feelings for Hemai.

And He Mai never thought much about the occasional trace of complexity in Liulang's eyes, whether he couldn't help himself, or was he uncontrollable?

Within two days, it was time to send bamboo rats to the pastoral restaurant.

He Mai and Rokuro got up early, washed up and ate, and Rokuro led the donkey to take He Mai to the town.

Ten bamboo rats were loaded in the two cages, weighing about 30 catties, and the bamboo cages were tied with hemp rope and straddled on the donkey's back, and although they were slow but very stable, they arrived at Tianyuan Restaurant.

He Mai felt sorry for Liulang's tiredness, and hurriedly went to fetch him water to drink, this kung fu, Song Caiban had already weighed the bamboo rat with Liulang in the backyard and calculated the price.

After settling the silver, nine hundred and seventy wen, Song Caiban directly paid one or two pieces of silver.

"How does this work?" Rokuro refused, "How much silver should be, how much ......"

"Hey, what are you doing with me?" Song Caiban held Liulang's hand affectionately, "Brother Liulang, don't refuse me because of these twenty or thirty pieces of silver, if I can't give my brother this convenience, then what should I ......procure?"

Liulang had no choice, so he turned his head and put a tael of silver in Hemai's hand.

The three of them exchanged pleasantries in a secluded position for a while, and He Mai suddenly asked, "Brother Song, do you remember the time when Liulang and I came with bamboo rats?" I remember that there seemed to be a guest on the second floor who was in critical condition that day, what happened to him? ”

Song Caiban was stunned, "Are you talking about the time when Miss Wang ran away?!" It's not a big deal! Sent to the medical hall, Lang Zhong was prescribed two pairs of medicines, and he was fine after drinking it! Fortunately, Mr. Wang's family is a friend of the owner, otherwise, this matter is really difficult to handle......"

He Mai was curious: "How could you suddenly run away?" The things in our restaurant shouldn't be ......."

"Hemai," Rokuro said suddenly, interrupting her inquiry in a gentle voice, "It's been a long time, should we go?" ”

"Ah, that's fine." He Mai was interrupted, and he looked at the sky, which was gloomy and seemed to be a precursor to rain.

They have only been here for a short time, and many of the things that should be purchased have not been bought, and if it rains for a while, they don't know when they will be able to go back.

"Let's go." Hemai put down what he was holding and said to Rokuro.

When they had bought everything they needed to buy, and then led the little donkey to prepare for the return journey, the dark clouds rolled in the sky, and occasionally a low thunder sounded in the sky, and the rainstorm seemed to be about to overturn.
