Chapter 50 Different Elderly
After eating, the two staggered to the clothes shop.
Maybe it's a little early, there is no one in the store, Xue Rou walked around, she was not very interested in the clothes in the store, the style was too ordinary, and the color was also very monotonous, and said to the shopkeeper on the side: "Shopkeeper, don't you have a better one, a little brighter color?" Both men's and women's clothing is required. ”
The shopkeeper didn't want to deal with Xue Rou, but after glancing at the clothes on Lu Yi's body, he suddenly changed his face, nodded again and again, and said, "Yes, guest officer, you wait a minute." ”
After a while, the shopkeeper came out, holding a few clothes in his hand, which looked much better than these hanging in the store, Xue Rou was interested, and picked them up one by one and put them on his body for comparison.
One of the blue ones, Xue Rou especially likes it, it is very similar to the color on Xiaofulang's body, and it is very good to buy it back as a couple.
The shopkeeper was full of compliments and said to Lu Yi, who was choosing clothes: "Your wife really loves you and has been choosing clothes for you!" ”
God he meows his wife, Lu Yi looked in the direction of the shopkeeper, and saw Xue Rou holding a blue skirt and comparing it on her body, three black lines slid through the corners of her forehead, and the corners of her mouth twitched and snatched the clothes in Xue Rou's hand, "Top and bottom skirts, this is men's clothing, what are you looking at?" ”
Xue Rou: ...... She didn't know that the little husband was so fierce!
In the end, the two picked two pieces each. In the checkout link, Lu Yi rolled up his sleeves, with a posture of doing a lot of work, a qualified virtuous husband and good father, bargaining is a necessary skill: "Shopkeeper, how many of these are in total?" ”
The shopkeeper didn't know that the person who looked like a little boy in front of him was going to bargain, and Mei Zizi took the abacus for a while, "Two guest officers, Cheng Hui is ten taels and five times." ”
"What?" Lu Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the corners of his mouth, "Where are these clothes worth so much, you won't look at us and rip off customers, right?" ”
The shopkeeper was a little dumbfounded, trying to explain: "Guest officer, look at our materials, they are definitely good materials, and the workmanship is also solid, and it is the craftsmanship of the old embroidery girl for many years......"
"What kind of good material, I think it's average." Lu Yi rubbed his clothes with a look of disdain.
In the end, the shopkeeper said helplessly that it could be cheaper three times.
After paying, Lu Yimei carried his spoils on his back, and raised his head like a general wearing armor who had returned victorious.
Leaving the clothing store, Xue Rou took Lu Yi to turn around and go to the wooden store, customized a hundred wood molds, and then went to the butcher shop, ordered a lot of pig pancreas that are not uncommon for people here, and went to find Ma Mo, a neighbor who used to live in Xishi.
"What? Plant ash? What do you want all that stuff for? Ma Mo Mo was still so straightforward, and he asked directly in his heart, which stumped Xue Rou.
She can't say that she wants to make soap from plant ash alkali, right? I had to say vaguely, "It's useful, you just have to collect it, the more the better, five copper plates for a pound of grass and wood ash." ”
Ma Mo Mo was surprised by Xue Rou's arrogant tone and couldn't speak for a long time, and secretly pulled Lu Yi to the side, pointing his head, "Your wife won't have a problem here, right?" "Grass and wood ash is useless at all, it's actually five copper plates per catty, isn't this stupid?
Lu Yi pursed his lips, and instead of explaining his relationship with Xue Rou, he opened his mouth to persuade; "What's the matter, it's naturally useful for my wife to ask for this thing, but I don't know the specifics, you just have to accept it, if you don't worry, just take it less at the beginning."
"Five copper plates a pound is not much, but how much can subsidize the family, I haven't thanked you well for the last time, so I think about you as soon as there is this kind of thing, don't shirk it."
Lu Yi's words hit Ma Momo's weakness, the daughters in the family are getting older, it's really a half-eldest daughter who eats a poor old lady, she can't save any food, and her life is getting more and more hard, if you can subsidize the family, it is naturally good.
After making sure that the two of them didn't deliberately use excuses to send money to themselves, Ma Mo didn't shirk it, turned his head and said another thing, "By the way, I heard my family say that Wang Zhukuai's recent life has not been good, and he has been stared at every day on duty, and the most tiring work in the yali is that Wang Zhuai is doing it quickly, and in just a few days, he has lost a lot of weight." ”
"Yes, I heard that I was arrogant before, I wanted to catch whoever I wanted to arrest, and I went to trouble you before, but as a result, I don't know which gentleman I offended, and I was targeted, and the phoenix on top is now not as good as a pheasant! Hahaha. ”
Ma Momo smiled heartily, he didn't know that Xue Rou and the county order had caught up with him, he only knew that Xue Rou was rescued, and the specific situation was not clear.
His wife advocated that although Da Cui knew, she thought that since Xue Rou had moved away, the two families might not have intersected in the future, so she didn't say much, at this moment, Ma Mo just simply confided, or rather, comforted Xue Rou and Lu Yi, young people who had been threatened, and didn't realize that the hero he said was in front of him.
Xue Gentleman Rou: ......
Time passed quickly, and before they knew it, it was noon, Xue Rou and Lu Yi refused Ma Momo's offer to keep food, and then moved to the newly bought house, where at this moment, more than a dozen old people were drinking porridge together.
The door was pushed open, and these old people looked over in unison, and when they saw that it was Xue Rou, they were overjoyed, and then they put down the bowl in a panic, and knelt in a row, shouting in their mouths, "Master!" ”
Longevity, Xue Rou, who respected the old and loved the young engraved in her bones, was kneeled by this, felt that her legs were weak, and walked over in three steps and two steps to help the person up.
The old man who was helped up stood there tremblingly, neither sitting, nor standing, nor kneeling, and pitifully wanted to shrink himself into a ball, for fear of getting in the way.
Xue Rou looked at it, helplessly supported his forehead, and could only use the tone of command to let these people sit down, and as soon as these people heard the instructions, they immediately obediently sat on the stone bench, with their legs together and their hands crossed on their legs.
After looking around, Xue Rou found that these "old people" were not the same as the old people she imagined.
In her concept, the elderly should be sixty or seventy years old with a mouth full of missing teeth, cloudy eyes, and poor legs and feet.
However, the group of people in front of him is not, although the skin is dark, the face is full of vicissitudes, and the eyes are blank, but it does not give people the feeling that they are about to die, and then ask, good guys, these "old people" are only in their forties?
No, just kidding, more than forty is an old man, in our flower country, top social animals of this age abound!
But after thinking about it, I seem to have seen a report before that the life expectancy of human beings in ancient feudal societies was generally very low, seventy is considered a high life expectancy, and forty or fifty belongs to the elderly, which seems not to be strange......
Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly, there was a loud bang, which rang in my ears.
