(Staying up late is actually a good way to treat fever, and staying up to this time, the fever has subsided, haha, an unexpected joy.) ）

Xiao Cui was waiting outside the door, and when she heard this, she was so frightened that she cowered and didn't dare to come in, and the old lady got up and walked over the two of them, beckoned her to go into the main house together, and packed all the clothes and belongings of her own young lady, and even the house of Chunying and Lu Rui was empty, leaving them only two simple clothes and a small package.

In this way, the salute made up eight large boxes, the original green cloth carriage must not be able to fit, when the old lady had to go outside to hire a carriage, Wu Lie was impatient, eager to fly to Yunjia Village for a while, immediately asked someone to set the carriage of the general's mansion, loaded it in one go, and then brought a few personal guards, turned over the horse, and set off in a hurry.

Halfway through, Mu San jumped out of the car with a smile and a green stamen and a spring warbler, waved his hand to signal the carriage to hurry first, and then strode around the palatial flower building repaired by the side of the road, and turned into the population @ trading place in the outer city, but for twenty taels of silver, he sold the two women to Renyazi.

Lu Rui and Chunying lost their voices, originally hoping to rely on their good looks to meet a lover in the flower building and buy them out, they finally had the time to see the light of day again, but they didn't expect Mu San to sell them to the people who were about to go north.

Because the northern Xinjiang is very close to the northern barbarians, the habits of the people are also in common with the northern barbarians, the status of women is very low, and because of the frequent wars in recent years, almost all the women and children are dead, most of the remaining men are survived on the battlefield, the temperament is extremely strong, how can there be a little bit of gentleness, and some even only regard women as slaves who give birth to children, wash and cook, beat and scold at every turn, and torture to death is not nothing. Therefore, if the woman falls there, she will undoubtedly go to hell.

The two of them struggled hard, their eyes were extremely vicious, and they cursed in their mouths, but no sound came out, Mu San checked the silver in his hand, and said with a smile, "Don't blame me for being ruthless, if you stay in this Bailu City, who knows what twists and turns you will have, the most poisonous woman's heart, I have suffered a loss, so, I'm sorry, two, find a good man to serve in Northern Xinjiang, I can't say that I can't have children, and I have a dependence in this life." But if you dare to hold a grudge, come back and find a little trouble..."

"Hmph," Mu San snorted coldly, and released his clenched palm in front of their eyes, revealing the pinched and deformed silver coin inside, Lu Rui and Chunying were immediately frightened and shut their mouths, they were sold to the northern frontier, at least they could still live, if they resisted, they were afraid that their lives would be lost immediately.

Mu San nodded with satisfaction, pulled the trafficker again, and whispered a few words, then walked out slowly, looked up at the sun hanging high in the sky, stretched his waist, and sighed, "Why am I also softened by the second sister-in-law's tired heart, such a scourge, it is the most appropriate to kill it, and it will be a hundred, and there will be no future troubles." ”

He casually stuffed the silver coin into his arms, and flew out of the city while chattering, caught up with the convoy, and went all the way back to Yunjia Village without mentioning it.

Not to mention how Wu Lie and everyone hurried, just say that the neighbors in Yunjia Village, after harvesting the grain, took advantage of the good weather to start harvesting the acres of cow beans planted in the spring, the bean seedlings have been black-brown, the autumn equinox blows, the bean leaves rustle and fall, sit on the edge of the field and listen, occasionally there is a crackling sound, that is, the pod is ripe, the sound of exploding.

Farmers cherish food, for fear that the beans will fall too much, spoil in the ground, every family is in a hurry to clean the yard, and close the chicken coop, the men will cut the bean seedlings from the field and carry them back, the old woman took the children, spread the bean seedlings evenly on the ground, pick up the flat pole or burning stick, ping-pong knock down, the beans jumped out of the pods, sank down the gap of the bean straw, and finally hugged the bean straw, there was a thick layer of beans left, under the irradiation of the sun, flashing with golden light, it was very gratifying.

If there is a family with cows, horses and livestock, it is even more convenient, find a pair of stone rollers to put on the cattle and horses, and turn the bones on the paved soybean straw a few times, and it is almost the same.

When the west wind rose in the afternoon, the men took shovels or planks and stood upwind, shoveled up a puff of beans and lifted them up to the sky, and the soil and broken bean stalks mixed in them were blown away by the wind, leaving only the slippery beans to fall.

is so busy, men, women and children are so tired that they can't straighten their waists, but when they see bags of beans piled up in one place, the smile on their faces can't be stopped.

There is that impatient, it is not good to go to Zhao's house to inquire, that night I went to Zhang's house to sit, said a few gossips, and then turned the conversation to beans, Zhang Dahe naturally understood that everyone was worried that the Zhao family would not follow the promise of the spring, two pennies and a pound of bribes, so he smiled, "The workshop makes tofu every day, and uses this cow bean, how can the shopkeeper not buy it?" Don't worry, tomorrow, I'll ask for everyone. ”

Everyone was smiling, and inevitably complimented a few more words before they dispersed.

On the second day, taking advantage of the rest of the workshop, Zhang Dahe really went into the account room to inquire.

Ruixue was knocked on the corner of the table when she got up a few days ago, Zhao Fengnian was afraid that something would happen to her, so she stayed in the backyard almost every day and guarded, refusing to leave for a while, so she really forgot, it was the time for the beans to be harvested, and when she heard Zhang Dahe say this, she immediately said, "In the afternoon, I will take someone to sort out the warehouse in the courtyard of Sanjin, release the news, and start buying cow beans tomorrow, not only in our village, but also in other villages, as long as it is transported to the front of our workshop, two pennies and a catty, how much you want." ”

Zhang Dahe responded, and he didn't have to go out to inform him from door to door, but he said in the workshop, after lunch, Yun Xiaoliu and Xiaojiu all ran back to tell the news, and every family has three relatives and six reasons, so, in less than an hour, the entire Yunjia Village is known to everyone, and after waiting for an afternoon, three or five nearby villages also got the news, and if it continues like this, the entire Lingfeng City will be lively for a hundred and ten miles, and the people who have planted cow beans are busy cutting bean seedlings and beating beans, and they are very busy.

The next morning, the people of Yunjia Village used a small cart or simply carried a sack on their shoulders, gathered in front of Zhao's house, Zhang Dahe sent the various restaurant carriages that came to the door to take tofu, and began to weigh the beans with people's hands, Da Zhuang and Heizi were arrested as Mr. Accounts, and a small wooden table was installed next to the door, respectively, remembering the names of people and catties, everyone saw it, and couldn't help but praise a few words, Zhang Dahe was modest on his mouth, but the pride in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows could not be hidden, and the busy hands were even faster.

Soon more than 40 families in Yunjia Village put the beans into the Zhao family's treasury, Zhao Fengnian took Yun Xiaoliu and Xiaojiu, carried the money box out, according to the number of beans in each family, began to distribute silver money, this one two three, that one two six, everyone received the silver money is happy to bloom on their faces, after thanking them, they covered the silver and ran home, killing chickens and ducks to celebrate this more than in previous years, thinking about what new things should be changed at home or buy a dowry for their daughter...

On the third day, Yunjia Village is even more lively, sometimes there are farmers from the surrounding ten miles and eight villages to drive the ox cart to deliver beans, climb relatives and bring the deceased, who has a daughter or distant cousin who marries here, greeting up, it is a greeting, several descendants are very eye-catching, see Zhang Dahe and a few people are busy with the back of the head, so they ran to the door of Zhao's house, help carry a bag, or run an errand, Zhang Dahe had a free drink of tea, and said to Zhao Fengnian who came out to visit, "The shopkeeper, these offspring are good." ”

Zhao Fengnian naturally saw it in his eyes, so he nodded and said, "In a while, the workshop will have to add more people, and you can do it in your heart." ”

These words were heard by a young man with a sharp ear, and he was so happy that he almost fainted, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and he ran even faster.

There are more and more farmers from other villages who come to sell beans, and there is no line in front of Zhao's house, so it has been extended to the end of the street, and it is only half of the collection until noon, Wu Yu guards the box and manages the distribution of money, Niuniu stepped forward to take a look, but wanted to help but made a mess instead, and was pushed aside by Wu Yu, she grabbed the cake in the hand of an old farmer in a fit of anger, and ran back to the backyard with a big mouthful.

Rui Xue was sitting at the door of the stove, looking at the colorful clouds and moon steamed rice and stir-fried vegetables, thinking about making two new dishes to treat the child's father and Wu Yu Dazhuang, Niuniu flew in, threw herself into her sister's arms, and shouted, "Sister, the big beauty bullied me again." ”

Rui Xue wiped the beads of sweat from her head, pinched her pouting mouth, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid you stepped forward to make trouble again, right?" ”

Niuniu twisted her body and didn't cling, "I want to help, and he still pushes me away." ”

Rui Xue was afraid that she would crush her stomach, so she helped her up, "You have only been in school for a few days, and you haven't learned a few words, how can you help, in the afternoon, can you play with your sister?" ”

Niuniu reluctantly agreed, threw down the cake in her hand, went to look at the fried mushroom slices in the pot, and shouted, "Sister, stew chicken for Niuniu to eat at night." ”

Ruixue picked up the cake she threw down and asked, "Where did you get the bread cake?" ”

Niuniu replied casually, "I grabbed it outside the door." ”

Rui Xue frowned, called her over, hit her hard twice in the palm of her hand, and said, "How many days have I taught you, why still don't you understand the rules?" There is no shortage of food for you at home, why do you still snatch it from others? ”

Niuniu was in pain, but she was not annoyed, rubbed her palms, blinked her big eyes, and whispered, "Sister, then I'll take it and return it to others..."

Rui Xue glared at her, "You've eaten half of it, it's full of saliva, how can you pay it back?" After speaking, she got up and picked up two white steamed buns in the small bamboo basket on the side, put them on a small plate, and handed them to Niuniu, "Let's go, go with my sister to apologize." ”

"Okay." Niuniu pouted, hugged the steamed buns, and followed her sister out of the door.

The sisters went all the way out of the second gate, and the people who carried sacks and beans in the workshop saw that they were all dodging aside, for fear of accidentally touching Ruixue's big belly, Ruixue nodded with a smile and went out of the gate again.

Zhao Fengnian was talking to Zhang Dahe, and when he saw her coming out, he hurried over, frowned and whispered, "It's busy here, what are you doing here?" In case you run across..."

Rui Xue smiled and shook her head, "I'll be careful, Niuniu robbed other people's food, and I always have to take her to apologize, so as not to make this mistake again in the future." ”
