Chapter 257 Shanggang Village (Ask for a subscription and ask for a monthly pass)
After that, the three of them went to the kitchen to cook together, and it was about to get dark and there was not enough time, so there was a lot of strength and there was a lot of power, so they did it faster.
Zhang Mancang came out to move the grain, but when he saw that he had already moved into the kitchen, he gave a thumbs up to Qian Yan.
When he was in the carpenter's shop before, he knew how strong the car was, and when he was sledding, he had to lift the car a little, and he was going to find someone to come and help, but he saw that the little girl lifted the carriage off the ground with both hands.
At that time, he and the master were stunned, and then they knew why a little girl dared to go on the road alone, and dared to rescue someone she didn't know, this is the courage of an art master!
But if you know it, you still have to say a word of hard work to the other party.
They didn't plan to make some more complicated ones at night, so they directly cut some diced mutton, stir-fried it with cabbage, adjusted the batter, and made a big pot of gnocchi soup, which was hot and delicious, and it didn't take time.
Everyone, including a few children, ate two large bowls fragrantly, and ate to their heart's content.
When it was dark after eating, they went back to their houses to sleep.
Tomorrow, the family will go out, not only Zhang Mancang will go to the town, but Zhang's sister-in-law will also take Zhang Chunhua to Shanggang Village.
Since you want to buy the yard next door, you should hurry up and settle it down as soon as possible, and you can live in it before the year.
There have been people living next door, and it's been empty for more than half a month, so you don't have to clean it up, just clean it up.
Both of them are people who love cleanliness, and it is estimated that there is at most a layer of ash inside, which is very easy to clean up.
At that time, the children will be put in the carpenter's shop, Zhang Li likes children, that is really to take the two boys as grandchildren, every time I go, I am happy to see my teeth and eyes.
In fact, the two children will come to trouble, and when they go, they will be called by their grandfather and grandfather, and they will be amused and beaten their legs, which old man does not like such children.
There is no exception to the money tonight, there is nothing left from yesterday, so it is also a pimple soup to eat.
There are lamb and cabbage in it, as well as gnocchi, not to mention, it is quite beautiful to eat with money.
After eating, he followed her and coquettishly beside her, and also passed on the ugly voice to the ugly that he wanted to eat this next time.
also asked Chouchou to tell her that she also wanted the smell of mutton.
Dumpling Yan is angry and funny, this is to find her favorite flavor, and she is ordering.
She can do the pimple soup, and she can learn the program once you look at it, and the steps are very simple.
I used to watch my parents make it when I was at home, but it was not mutton-flavored, it was usually made with tomatoes and eggs, and then put some chopped green onions and coriander, she thought it was more delicious.
Maybe she prefers sour, more appetizing and refreshing.
She lay on the bed and talked to Ugly for a while before falling asleep.
There was no movement in Pingyuan County and Lingguang Temple, and the half-demon abbot had been doing what the abbot should do in the temple, meditating, chanting scriptures, and preaching Zen to pilgrims with status.
Ugly and bored, he also looked at the side of Qinzhou Mansion City, where people had already passed over from the coal mine, and they were digging caves for the soldiers stationed there.
It's too hard to sleep in a tent in this kind of weather, but fortunately there is a slope over there, dig a little down, you can dig a cave, and there is ready-made coal to burn, so there is no problem with heating in winter.
It's okay over there in Fucheng, the beast master and the Qingyuan Temple have been exposed, it's just that those wolves are not easy to deal with, and they are reluctant to kill them, and they don't feel at ease if they are released.
Now they are kept in an empty yard, not only with cages, but also with chains, and some people want to study and study to see if they can collect them for their own use.
After all, the wolves that have been trained are really rare, and if they can be used by themselves, they will also be a wonder force in the future.
The ugly heart said that they didn't know that there were a large group of other beasts in ambush outside Qinzhou City before, if it hadn't been silently dispersed, they wouldn't have dared to fight those wolves, and they would have killed them all early.
Although they have been caught, they have already entered the city, and if they howl inside, giving a signal to attack, they will not be able to say that the wild beasts outside will rush into the city.
Chou Chou also went to take a look at the beasts that he had driven away before, and the medicine that controlled them had passed, and now that he had regained his senses and lived a normal life in the deep mountains, he didn't pay much attention to it.
The next day, everyone went out in a carriage, but fortunately, the carriage was big enough, and most of them were children, so it was completely crowded.
Because there is no one left at home, even the money is in the car, and now he is nesting in the arms of Zhang Mancang, who is driving the car outside, as a hand warmer for him.
Zhang Mancang and Zhang's sister-in-law Zhang Chunhua have been praising it for being so well-behaved and sensible, only Qian Yan knows that it is suspected of being rubbed by four children inside.
No matter how sensible you are, you are a child after all, sometimes you don't have light or heavy hands, and you don't know moderation, and you are always rubbed and annoyed by them when you have money.
Luckily, it didn't take much time to get to town, and the toboggan below was faster than wheels, so it took less time than usual to get there.
When I got to the carpenter's shop, I went straight into the backyard.
Everyone greeted Zhang Lili, and the master and apprentice first went to look at the sleigh on the carriage to see if there were any problems or areas that needed improvement.
The four children also joined in the backyard, but they were all well-behaved and did not disturb the adults.
Qian Yan was going to go to Shanggang Village with Zhang Chunhua's sister-in-law, and she always felt that there should be some problems over there.
With divine sense, you can only probe a rough idea, and you still have to inquire with the local villagers, some things are not necessarily true, and there are many hidden secrets behind it.
Zhang Li asked them to drive the donkey cart, and the carriage still needs to be renovated and repaired, and the carriage will also be built.
There was no snow last night, and Tilt Yan had already asked Chouchou to put the plastic sheeting inside the mezzanine into the space, leaving only the straw curtain tarpaulin and sheepskin, and they didn't have to worry about finding anything abnormal when they removed it today.
The donkey cart was smaller than the ox cart and the horse-drawn cart, and it was suitable for the three of them, but the only bad thing was that there was no shed, and they took off the sheepskin from the cart to put it on so that it was not so cold.
Tilt Yan is fine, she is wearing a big coat, and the sheepskin quilt is for Zhang Chunhua's sister-in-law.
Shanggang Village and Zhangji Town are separated by three villages, namely Zhangwan Village, Dazhangzhuang and Xiaozhangzhuang.
It's not close, it's not very far, it's seven or eight miles.
Listening to Zhang's sister-in-law, the name of Shanggang Village was called Yungang Village before, and it was named because it was halfway up the Yungang Mountain, but later it was renamed because of the quality of the fields, and it was divided into two villages.
The one that is still in place is called Shanggang Village, and the other part of the people went to the foot of Yungang Mountain, where the terrain is low-lying and called Xiagang Village.
Da Zhangzhuang and Xiao Zhangzhuang are the same, they were all members of the same family before, and there were more people and more contradictions, so they naturally separated.
After Xiaozhang Village is a section of uphill road, meet a fork to the left, and then walk about a mile to the Xiagang Village, to go to Shanggang Village to enter the mountain.
The farmland in the village is all under the mountain, and on both sides of the road from the official road, there are fields from the village.
To be honest, since the two villages were separated, the life of the laid-off village is obviously much better than that of the Shanggang village, after all, the transportation is convenient at the bottom of the mountain, and there are many fields, and if you are in the mountain, it will be worse.
In addition, only some of the houses in the village are cave next to the mountain, and most of the rest are adobe and stone houses.
Shanggang Village is basically a cave.
Yungang Mountain is not very high, it is flatter than Qingyuan Mountain, it looks like a low big dirt bag from a distance, but there are many trees on it that can form a big forest, so many families in Shanggang Village in addition to farming, they also rely on hunting to make a living, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, which is understandable.
Because of the season, the leaves on the mountain have fallen now, and the branches are mostly bare with white snow, which looks white and flowery, without a little green.
There are trees on both sides of the mountain road into the village, which causes them to be "sneak attacked" from time to time
Because there was no shed, a lot of snow fell from the trees on the car, and the three of them were smashed a lot, but fortunately, Tianyan wore a hood, and Zhang Chunhua and Zhang Sister-in-law also put the quilt on their heads, otherwise they would have to be covered with snow.
The road up the mountain is not steep, and it takes more than 20 minutes to reach Shanggang Village.
Before entering the mountain, Qian Yan had seen it with her divine sense, so even if she didn't have Sister-in-law Zhang's guidance, she could find the direction accurately, not to mention that the road up the mountain was just this one, and it was difficult to go wrong.
It's just that as soon as they entered the village, they were stopped, it should be because of the accident before, and the people here are very wary of outsiders.
Although it has been characterized as a ghost, some people still don't believe it, thinking that someone may have harmed the child.
Therefore, when I saw their donkey carts and fresh faces, I was a little vigilant, and I definitely wanted to ask about it.
They were stopped by two women who looked to be in their thirties and forties, one with a round face and the other with a long face, who must have belonged to two families at the entrance of the village, holding brooms in their hands, and had been sweeping the snow on the road.
Qian Yan didn't speak, her accent was too obvious, and it was even more troublesome to explain, so she handed over the task of negotiating with the other party to Sister-in-law Zhang.
Sister-in-law Zhang lifted the quilt and jumped out of the car, and said to the two: "We are from Zhangwa Village, go to Lin Dasheng's house, we are Zhang Xiaocui's relatives, didn't they bring Xiaocui'er's father and mother, let's come over to see how we are doing." ”
As soon as the two women heard this, they knew who it was, why Zhang Xiaocui and her father and mother came to this village and didn't know anything, after all, it was decided by the whole village.
Knowing that he was not a suspicious person, he let down some of his vigilance and said to them: "Then do you know how his house is leaving?" Do you need me to take you there? ”
Sister-in-law Zhang nodded and shook her head, "I know a rough idea, my man came to see off his relatives and told me about the other party, but I don't know how to get over."
Sister-in-law, just show me the way, we will find it ourselves, and we don't have to delay your work. ”
She really hasn't been to this Shanggang Village, when Zhang Xiaocui got married, Zhang Chunhua was already married, and she didn't come over to watch the children at home.
Zhang Mancang came to help get married together, but he didn't come over, the location of this village was still Zhang Mancang told her in advance how to go, so she could know.
One of the long-faced women said: "Okay, then we won't go with you, you go forward from here, and then turn right to the third house, there is a round stone pier in front of his house that is easy to find."
Sister-in-law Zhang thanked the two, Zhang Chunhua and Qian Yan also nodded at the two with a smile, and then drove forward.
She has good ears and can hear the whispers of two people.
One said: "Didn't Zhang Xiaocui say that there are no close relatives in the village over there?" Why are there still people coming to see them? ”
Another said: "Are there no close relatives and no distant relatives?" Let's take a look, I see that people have donkey carts, and they are also thick, not like they are here to fight the autumn breeze, they should be here to recognize relatives. ”
"It's true, ordinary people can't afford to raise a livestock cart, you look at the big fat on the girl who drove the car, it looks like a thick leather, I heard my brother say, if you buy this in the county, it will cost a few taels of silver."
"Really! Isn't that able to build two yards, I didn't expect Lin Dashan's family to have such a rich relative......"
After listening for a while, she didn't hear any useful information, so she took her attention back, turned right according to the route pointed out by the man, and sure enough, she saw a round stone pier in front of the gate of the third courtyard.
The door of this courtyard is open, and there are two old men, a man and a woman, who are cleaning up the snow in the yard, and a little boy of five or six years old is running around and making trouble, looking at a very warm scene.
As soon as I parked the car at the door, I heard Sister-in-law Zhang and Zhang Chunhua shouting: "Uncle Pole, Aunt Orchid." ”
It seems that this is the two of them, and the little boy should be their grandson, and the two of them seem to be doing well here, at least in good spirits.
In this way, Zhang Chunhua should be able to buy their yard very smoothly, and Qian Yan thought that if the old couple did not have a good time here, it was very likely that the house would not be sold, and the two might have to go back there.
Now it should be fine.
When the old couple heard the voice, they stopped what they were doing and looked over, and when they saw that it was them, they hurriedly greeted them.
"Mancang's family, Chunhua, why are you two here?"
The two families are neighbors and the same clan, although they have come out of five suits, but they are also closer than others, isn't there a saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.
What's more, the relationship between the two of them has always been very good, otherwise it would not have been Zhang Xiaocui's marriage when Zhang Mancang, in addition to the brother of Wufu, also helped to give the marriage.
Even so, Zhang Zhuzi and his family didn't expect them to come all the way to see them.
Although there are some doubts in my heart, I still enthusiastically let them drive the donkey cart into the yard, it must not be placed outside, this road is a little narrow, and the road is blocked, and the other is afraid that the surrounding neighbors will see the car around to see the excitement.
Guessing that there must be something wrong with them coming, he led people directly to a cave on the right, which was the house where their old couple lived.
Zhang Gongzi asked his grandson to call his mother back, Zhang Chunhua grew up with her since childhood, and her daughter must be very happy to know that she is here.
