Volume 1 Chapter 8 On the Street

"It's not that I said you, you're all young men, and the house usually cleans up well, how can you say that the matchmaker is engaged in the future if you are sloppy" Aunt Wang looked around the room and couldn't help frowning and sighing.

Li Tian is okay, after all, when he first came, Hou Ping and Zheng Yifan were so red-faced that they didn't dare to raise their heads.

Li Tian secretly looked at Aunt Wang at this time, although her daughters are six years old, she does not look old, and she can see the shadow of everyone's ladies in her gestures.

Li Tian was still in the fugue here, and Aunt Wang didn't say much over there, she took the dirty clothes of the two of them and washed them, and didn't forget to tell the house to ventilate before leaving.

When Aunt Wang was gone, Hou Ping also glanced over to make sure that she had gone far.

In fact, it's not that I'm afraid of Aunt Wang, it's mainly that I'm ashamed.

Here Li Tian was cleaning up the bed, and Hou Ping next to him was also busy cleaning up the mess, only Zheng Yifan, who just woke up and didn't want to move, sat down at the table and poured himself a cup of herbal tea.

"That little brother, my name is Zheng Yifan, what do you call it? Are you fifteen years old? Zheng Yifan finished drinking a cup of tea and asked Li Tian.

Here, a man is considered an adult at the age of fifteen and can marry a wife.

"Brother Fan, my name is Li Tian. If you are not yet fifteen years old, please take care of Brother Fanduo. Here, Li Tian heard Zheng Yifan ask him, stopped what he was doing, and saluted Zheng Yifan with his fists in the air.

Zheng Yifan waved his hand and said: "I can't talk about it, it's all for the restaurant, Hou Ping should have told you, I was brought by the shopkeeper, and this is not an unsightly thing."

It's true that I don't do much work now, but another person may not be able to understand how much to buy, and whether the price is right or not. So I took a break at my leisure, and I don't have to be surprised.

There are few people who come to our Tianxiang Restaurant who don't rely on relationships, including you Li Tian, it is estimated that Lao Zhangtou pushed him in, only he is about to go home to retire.

Since you came to our restaurant, you have to work hard, and it is a big deal to earn more silver, and you have nothing to chew your tongue about. After Zheng Yifan finished speaking, he glanced at Hou Ping, who was packing up his things.

Li Tian hurriedly apologized, it was obvious that when Li Tian and Hou Ping were talking about the shopkeeper and the king's steward just now, Zheng Yifan had already woken up, and Zheng Yifan felt a little uncomfortable when he heard them talking about going through the back door.

Fortunately, Zheng Yifan just wanted the two of them not to chew their tongues, and he didn't get angry with Li Tian and the others, and he didn't say anything else, he drank another cup of herbal tea, and with a wave of his sleeves, he took the record book and went back to the restaurant to count the things to be bought.

Hou Ping took another look, confirmed that Zheng Yifan was really gone, and said to Li Tian: "Knife mouth tofu heart, Li Tian, don't be angry with him, he said this for our good, after all, you just came, let's talk about these things, if you are heard, you will definitely have to put on small shoes for us, don't talk about it in the future." ”

After another half an hour, Li Tianhou and Ping finally cleaned up the house.

After Hou Ping finished cleaning up, he was ready to go back to Tianxiang Restaurant to work. The group of guests who were going to eat in the evening were also coming.

Li Tian was also going to go back with him, but Hou Ping waved his hand and said that tonight, he didn't have to go. Let Li Tian go out and walk around the streets. Because Li Tian just came during the day, the store did not require him to go at night.

As for the salary, it will be calculated from tomorrow, and it will be in vain to work today.

Hou Ping returned to Tianxiang Restaurant. Li Tian was not in a hurry to go to the street, he first walked around the house, these rooms in the house occupy a lot of area, and when he entered the gate, he found that there were a few trees in the yard, and there were fruits on the trees.

But at that time, I couldn't see what kind of tree it was, and what fruit it bore, so I was dragged to the house where Hou Ping lived on the other side.

Now that I'm free, I'll take a look here.

Getting closer, Li Tian found that these were several red fruit trees, red fruit is a relatively common tree that can bear fruit, and the fruit is edible.

It blooms in spring and bears fruit in autumn. The fruit bears fruit once a year, and in late autumn, the fruit gradually turns red, and when the color turns crimson, it can be picked and eaten.

And the very amazing thing about this red fruit is that you can only eat it when it turns dark red, otherwise, people will have diarrhea when they eat it.

Some people also use this to grind the unripe fruits of red fruits into juice to make laxatives, and the medicinal effect is very good. Li Tian's family also has this kind of fruit tree, so he recognized it at a glance.

When I got closer, I found that not far from the fruit trees, there was a well, and the edge of the well was piled up with stones. The width of the well is only enough for a bucket to enter and exit, and it seems that it is designed to prevent Xiao En from running around in the yard for fear that she will accidentally fall into it.

Normal wells are large and wide, making it easy to carry water from buckets.

I walked around the yard and didn't see Xiao En's little girl, I wanted to say a few words to her, and then let the little girl close the door from the inside. Now it seems that the designation is that the little girl is tired of playing and goes back to the house to rest.

Li Tian has a younger sister at home, who is about the same age as Xiao En, so he also has a feeling of looking at Xiao En's sister.

Li Tian walked towards Aunt Wang's house, thinking that she should let Aunt Wang close the door, but before she got there, Aunt Wang went out first, and then Aunt Wang also saw Li Tian.

Aunt Wang made a gesture of whispering to Li Tian, it seems that Xiao En girl is really asleep.

Aunt Wang came to Li Tian's side and said, "Li Tian, is there something missing in the house?" Say, I'll go to the barn and get it for you. ”

Li Tian replied: "Auntie, everything in the house is complete, I am going to go out for a walk on the street, thinking that you will close the door." ”

Aunt Wang asked Li Tian for his intentions, agreed, sent Li Tian out of the gate, and told her to come back early and not to go outside the town. The door was closed.

Li Tian walked out of the courtyard gate, he didn't know which way to go, so he simply walked back in the direction he came from just now, since the street where the restaurant was located was so prosperous, it shouldn't be wrong to go in that direction.

Sure enough, the farther you go, the more pedestrians there are, and there are vendors and shops on both sides of the street.

Passing by the alley that he turned when he came, Li Tian didn't go in, he already knew that this alley was leading to the back door of the restaurant, and now he still walked to other places to take a look.

I walked straight for a while, and it was a straight road, wider than the road in front of Tianxiang Restaurant.

Li Tian understood, it turned out that this road was the main road, and the restaurant and the way he came out were both branches of this main road.

The main road was full of people, and it was approaching dinner time, and there were more people selling food on the road.

Needless to say, steamed buns, noodles, rice porridge and pickles are also available, which are sold as cooked things.

Shops of all kinds occupy the houses on both sides of the road. Li Tian was shocked when he saw the cloth and satin, gold and silver rings, rouge and gouache, vegetables, rice, grain and oil.

On the main road, there are carriages driven by merchants, officers and soldiers on horses, and people coming and going, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a busy traffic.

This was a scene that Li Tian had never seen in the village, and it was this scene that strengthened his determination to stay here.
