Chapter 007: Entering the City to Find a Way to Survive
The farming work passed quickly, but it was still early for the harvest.
Gao took Mimi up the mountain to dig wild vegetables, and came back to eat a little bit of coarse grain steamed rice balls, which made Liu Yunmian look like a vegetable.
Everyone in the family is like this, but everyone is still very optimistic, after all, it is much better than in a year of great drought, when there are no wild vegetables.
One day at breakfast, Gao mentioned the matter of picking up Zhang's again, but Liu Mingren lowered his head and did not answer.
Gao sighed: "You can't wait until you earn twenty taels of silver before you ......"
I don't know if it's the Year of the Monkey.
The daughter-in-law is no longer her own daughter-in-law.
Liu Mingren said: "Mother, don't worry about it, I'll go today." ”
After eating, he went, and brought ten eggs.
But before noon, he came back dejectedly, only saying that the Zhang family remembered his mother and would stay at home for a few more days.
However, the family obviously understood that this was Zhang's refusal.
"Then take Mimi and Iron Egg tomorrow?" Gao asked.
Liu Mingren was bored and didn't answer.
"Mother," Liu Yunmian said, "Sister-in-law is too hard, let her have a good rest." After a few days, I went with my eldest brother to invite my sister-in-law. ”
Liu Mingren took her, she took the silver.
Gao could only sigh and nod slightly, not optimistic about the result at all.
Lu Ci felt that Liu Yunmian seemed to be thinking about something recently, and those bright eyes were rolling day by day.
However, the two are under the same roof, and she has not said recently that she has to sleep with herself.
Lu Ci was satisfied with this, and he didn't want to interfere with her anything.
He is in the Liu family, just to temporarily find a place to recuperate, in order to seek the future.
It is......
This woman doesn't know her noble status, and she always dictates to herself, lest she be idle, which really makes him unhappy.
For example, give him a stick and let him put chickens in the yard, it's magical!
But he had to endure it.
Liu Yunmian didn't care what he thought, there was no meow meow at night recently, and the hen had already entered the stomach of the family, and the taste was forgotten, so she didn't take Lu Ci's ornament to heart.
Really, it's just a nice ornament.
Well, it can also be used as a plow for cattle, but it is limited to this, and there is no trend towards poultry.
- Even if he wanted to, he was quite conservative; For the poultry in the White Horse Clubhouse, she is limited to YY.
Liu Yunmian just wants to make money, she wants to eat meat! Eat real meat!
"Lu Ci." While sleeping, in the dark, she suddenly spoke.
Lu Ci didn't respond, because he had a gut feeling that nothing was good, and he would listen to it again.
"You can write." Liu Yunmian asked again.
Lu Ci said "um".
Liu Yunmian was angry, and he pretended to be dead just now!
"And is your handwriting beautiful?"
"Okay."
"Oh."
Lu Ci waited for the following, but there was no more.
He finally couldn't help but speak: "What is the lady asking for?" ”
"Nothing." Liu Yunmian said, "I will also write." ”
She wondered, is copying books also a way to make money?
But you have to find business opportunities first, and then discuss with Lu Ci, lest you talk about it first, and you can't accept it after you admit it.
Lu Ci was silent for a long time and then asked, "Does the lady want to compete with me?" ”
Liu Yunmian: "......"
Who do you look down on, is she also proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?
The goal of the predecessor has always been to serve people in Israel, and I want to climb to the high branch to be an aunt, and my business ability is very good!
The next day, Liu Yunmian told his family that he wanted to go to the city.
She thought about it, although there are people in the village who are sick, but they can't afford the money!
So if you want to make money, you have to start with the rich people in the city.
Zhang said: "What are you doing in the city?" I have to accompany you, and I am reluctant to delay this day's work. ”
She embroidered her purse, she could get five cents a day, and the oil and salt for a day would come out, and she was unwilling to delay her work.
“…… By the way, now that you're married, it's okay to resign, let him accompany you! ”
As soon as Liu Yunmian wanted to refuse, he listened to Lu Ci and said, "Okay, mother, I'll accompany Mianmian." ”
Gao was still worried about Liu Yunmian's two taels of silver, and told her not to spend money indiscriminately when she entered the city, that she lacked nothing at home, and that she should not buy anything.
She attached to Liu Yunmian's ear and said: "If you are really hungry for meat, buy a meat bun to satisfy your hunger." ”
Liu Yunmian: "You can see this?" ”
Gao scolded with a smile: "Look at the chicken that lays eggs every day, your eyes are green." ”
Liu Yunmian was embarrassed.
But she swore that it was really the longest fasting day of her life.
Who said that ancient people didn't eat pigs in the water, and they could send pig barrel bones at will?
After I came, I found out that it was all a lie!
The poor people here can't wait to take a piece of cloth to touch the oil star on the butcher's table, and they won't let go of anything they can eat!
So if she wants to pick up this kind of leak, it is absolutely impossible.
Hungry, meaty!
"When you got married, Chongxi washed away one of my hens that laid eggs, and now there are only three left, don't make up your mind anymore. Our family's pocket money is all pointed at the chicken butt! ”
Liu Yunmian: "......"
Gao Shi took out a faded red veil for her, and said with some amazement: "This is what I saved for a long time when I got married. You wear it! ”
Liu Yunmian left a long scar on the right cheek to cover her.
"No, you don't." Liu Yunmian rejected her kindness, "When others asked, I said that I accidentally injured myself when chopping wood, and it was okay." ”
I can't eat the meat, the sky is going to fall, it doesn't matter if he looks good or not!
In this way, Liu Yunmian took Lu Ci and got on the ox cart into the city together.
The fare of six copper plates, she was very painful.
She and Lu Ci sat in the car and were the focus of attention.
After all, one is a maid who was ruined and sent home, and the other is a husband who bought it to celebrate and worship the hen in his arms, and everyone is a full topic of conversation.
Liu Yunmian didn't care.
As long as I am thick-skinned enough, no one in this world can laugh at me.
As for those young little women, who looked at Lu Ci secretly, she also generously turned her head and pretended not to see it.
The sisters of the world are a family, my man will show you!
Lu Ci lowered his head, looking very shy, he didn't say a word on the road, only silently stretched out his hand to protect Liu Yunmian.
After entering the city, Liu Yunmian looked at the familiar street scene and felt a sense of loss.
- This is the exclamation of the predecessor, not hers.
She first took Lu to the bookstore and inquired about copying books.
However, they demanded that I copy in the bookstore, just like I went to work, so as not to run away from other people's pen, ink, paper, and inkstones.
After all, the four treasures of the study are still quite expensive.
If you have to collect a deposit, these poor people who copy books can't afford it, so that's the only way.
Lu Ci suddenly felt Liu Yunmian's gaze swirling on him, with bad intentions.
This woman won't leave herself to copy books!
Liu Yunmian spoke softly, like a wolf grandmother coaxing Little Red Riding Hood: "Xianggong-"
"Lady, I really want to stay and make money for you to spend." Lu Ci said in a low voice, his eyes were reluctant, "But no matter where you eat, you have to find a place to live, and you have to buy food, it's not cost-effective." ”
His demeanor, a virtuous and humble son-in-law, is really more and more handy.
But as long as Liu Yunmian remembers the ruthlessness of his twisting of the chicken's neck that night, he will not take it lightly.
She thought about it, it was indeed the same, maybe she had to post it upside down, after all, the price of goods in the city was expensive, so she had to give up.
The road to wealth is broken, and she is sad for a while.
Coming out of the bookstore, Liu Yunmian smelled the fragrant buns, and was reluctant to pay for them.
She originally wanted to buy it, but Gao specially told her to eat alone, and she remembered the old and weak of the Liu family, so she didn't want to buy it.
She was also afraid that she couldn't hold a bun, she couldn't control it, and she ate it with a white face.
Liu Yunmian, who was hungry, went to the pharmacy again.
This time, she squatted at the door of the pharmacy and didn't move the ground.
She's come fishing, and she's patient.
This Derentang is the most expensive time-honored brand in the city.
Here, you can catch rich patients.
Lu Ci: "......"
I don't know this woman.
