When Liu Meibao said this, Song Sanniang showed a look on her face that I had heard it wrong.

It seems that Liu Meibao has never said this before, nor has he done such a thing.

"It's just that Aunt Lao told me a few more words..."Liu Meibao expected to be so busy and said.

Song Sanniang looked at her for a while, and then handed over the cloth in her hand.

"Baoquanfang Road Old Fourth Warehouse.." She said in a wooden voice, and put down the basket with the other hand, "Get ten cents, go to the Liaojia rice noodle shop in Guanfuzi Market to buy two liters of noodles." ”

Liu Meibao nodded hurriedly and remembered carefully.

"You carried the firewood and sent it to Lu Laosi's warehouse together." Song Sanniang looked at the young girl who was standing aside and said again.

There is a shortage of labor at home, and the young lady used to do nothing and nothing, so she could be an idler, but she couldn't, Zhou Liangyu went out to help, Song Sanniang weaved cloth, and other groceries such as washing and picking up firewood, sprinkling fire, cooking, etc.

I didn't expect Miss to take the initiative to deliver the cloth, and she was absolutely unwilling to let Miss go into the city alone, but she thought that Song Sanniang would definitely not want to let this little thing take up the labor of two people.

was worried, but I didn't expect Song Sanniang to take the initiative to say, Qingya suddenly jumped up happily, and hurriedly answered yes, so she went to sort out the firewood piled up in the corner, in order to show that she was by no means a waste of labor, she carried firewood almost half a person high before she gave up.

"Take the money, throw it back, and take care of your skin!" Song Sanniang shouted in a deep voice, looking at the two thin figures on their backs staggering away, one of them seemed to know that he was standing at the door and watching, and turned around and waved his hand.

Song Sanniang suddenly felt that her nose was a little sour.

"Blind thief God—" she bowed her head and cursed, and turned to go in.

This is the first time Liu Meibao has gone out in ancient times, although her psychological age is not young, she still can't hide her excitement, and she is curious to look at it all the way.

"I'm tired, let me carry it for a while.." Looking at the obviously panting Qingya beside her, Liu Meibao hurriedly said.

"No, no, where is the young lady moving." Qingya smiled and refused, but agreed to Liu Meibao's request to rest for a moment.

The two of them stopped and walked like this, Liu Meibao kept asking all kinds of things she didn't understand, and Qingya patiently explained them one by one.

"Look, these..."

When she came to a field that had obviously been manicured, Qingya stopped, stretched out her finger, and whispered, "These were originally the land of my uncle's family.....

Although Liu Meibao is not from a farming family, because traditional Chinese medicine involves the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine, he is no stranger to the land, and it can be seen at a glance that these are good and fertile fields, but it is the time when the crops are flourishing, more than half of them are empty, and the remaining crops are also sparse.

"Then why don't you plant it? Farming is much better than weaving. She couldn't help asking, weaving cloth for money, and then taking the money for food, in the middle of the hand, there is more money.

"Miss, my uncle has also been offended..."Qingya wanted to laugh a little, but this thing really made people laugh.

Liu Meibao sighed, reacted, was convicted, and the family property was naturally confiscated.

This topic made the atmosphere a little dull, and the two of them talked less, accustomed to modern means of transportation, Liu Meibao walked such a long way for the first time, and had to hold the heavy cloth with one hand, and help Qingya with the firewood with the other, even if he had no strength to speak.

There are not many pedestrians on the road, and occasionally they walk by, all of them are rough and shabby, completely different from those ancient TV dramas that I once saw on TV.

When the sun was in the middle of the day, I finally saw the gate of the county seat of Xie County in Qingya's mouth.

The small city has obvious traces of just repaired, Liu Meibao saw the real moat, the suspension bridge, and there is water in the river, which caused Qingya to laugh for a while, jokes, what is a moat called without water.

There were three or four soldiers standing at the gate of the city, wearing simple gray armor and holding not bright spears, which attracted Liu Meibao's gaze for a while, and her unscrupulous gaze immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers.

"Where are the people, what for?" Two of them walked over and asked.

"Yong'an Village's.." Qingya bowed her head slightly, and her voice was very small.

"Louder.." The guard frowned and shouted.

"From Yong'an Village, our surname is Liu.." Qingya raised her voice slightly.

The faces of the two guards changed suddenly.

"What?" They glanced at each other, immediately stood a few steps away, and waved their hands without looking at the two of them arbitrarily, "Let's go in." ”

Qingya stopped talking, and pulled Liu Meibao into the city quickly.

Liu Meibao couldn't help but look back curiously, and saw that the soldiers were gathering together to talk, and pointed at her, and when they saw her coming, they all turned their heads.

"What did the poor brothers say?"

A voice abruptly interrupted the words of several guards.

"What are you talking about, uncle?" was interrupted, and it was still like this, the guard suddenly lowered his face and snorted, and when he raised his eyes, there was a thin young man standing in front of him, and the words with anger changed in an instant.

"It's Second Master Lu," they replied with smiles on their faces, "It's nothing, it's nothing, you went into the city to deliver the goods today." ”

This young man was only eighteen or nineteen years old, dressed like an ordinary villager, and his face was simple and honest, only a pair of eyes were more energetic than others, and he smiled when he heard the words, and nodded in reply.

Behind him were seven or eight men in obvious Zhuang costumes, large and small, pushing wheelbarrows or carrying burdens, all of which were bulging sacks, staring at the guards.

All of these people's descriptions indicate that they are ordinary villagers, but they make the guards with spears and armor shiver.

Let's go... The guards were muttering in their hearts at the same time.

"Just now the people of the Liu family have entered the city...", a soldier suddenly said, "Our brothers are talking about this..."

This was a reminder of the young man's initial question, and he was expecting to answer them and let them go quickly.

"Oh?" The young man was a little curious, "Is it from Liu Zhixian?" ”

Liu Zhixian was convicted, where is it still called Shangzhi County, the guards all laughed, if it was someone else who said this, they would have pulled down their faces and scolded, but this person in front of them was not what they dared to scold, they just nodded indiscriminately.

Fortunately, the young man did not ask any more questions, and walked towards them, and as he walked, the seven or eight men followed, and a group of slightly dazzling people soon disappeared at the city gate, and the guards breathed a sigh of relief.

"Have you heard, there were seventeen or eighteen fewer people in the female salt pond overnight, and even the corpse was not found..... One of the guards said in a low voice.

"Shh The rest of the people immediately raised their hands to stop him, with a look of horror on their faces, "Guard our city gate well, don't meddle in your affairs, you don't want to live!" ”

Immediately, no one spoke, and in the silence, several people thought of the group of people who had just passed, although they were all cloth clothes and straw shoes, but the handle of the knife was inadvertently exposed under the bulging sack and did not escape the eyes of these guards, and even seemed to see that there were still unwiped blood stains on the knife........ the guards shivered together.

Liu Meibao saw the ancient town for the first time, and was very disappointed after being curious, the town was not as bright as it was on TV, many of the houses in the city were dilapidated, and the clothes of the pedestrians were mostly simple, and when you walked to the city, you could also see individual people who looked rich, but the clothes were not so bright, Liu Meibao thought that it had been violated by the Tartars here, and the productivity was naturally affected, and the people's lives were much worse.

After following Qingya through the street, he stopped in front of a somewhat old shop.

Liu Meibao raised his eyes and looked at it, and saw that the shop was a three-room tiled house, four wooden doors were open, and peach charms were hung on both sides, with couplets meaning good luck and fortune written on them, although the handwriting was somewhat faded, but it was very vigorous and powerful, and there was a plaque hanging above the door, with the word "Ruixiang" written on it.

There was a circle of counters in the door, and there were two or three people standing, and at noon, the contrast between the inside and outside was so strong that it was impossible to see what the specific furnishings were.

"Miss.." Qingya had already stepped over the threshold, looked back at Liu Meibao and didn't move, opened her mouth to call, suddenly remembered something and folded back, and reached out to take the cloth in Liu Meibao's hand, "Miss, I'll take it in, you wait here." ”

"No, no." Liu Meibao came back to her senses and hurriedly raised her heels.

"It's all right, miss, let me go." Qingya insisted.

As soon as the two of them delayed at the door, they attracted the attention of the insiders.

"Do what?" Someone asked.

Liu Meibao looked up and saw a thin old man walking out, wearing a wide gray robe that didn't fit well, with gray hair, shaking his body a little strangely as he walked.
