The four families each held the right coupon, and Cao Bao accepted the left coupon. Zheng Anping saluted again, thanked the elders and the villagers for witnessing, and the three parties said goodbye. This time, four pairs of mother and son followed behind the five and came to the ruined city.

After entering the city, Cao Bao admonished: "Where there is a house, you must be diligent. After the front house is out, it can be cleaned; But if someone enters, the bento should be avoided. Cleaning a house every day. The rest of the time should be in charge of other affairs. Today is only half a day, but the broom can also be knotted. Dinner is served in the city. Every day, the women and children ate one bucket, and each meal received five liters. Subsequently, Cao Bao brought four pairs of mother and son into Zheng Anping's west courtyard, and pointed out four wings on both sides for them to live in. Then he called Wu Wang and said, "Distributed every day, but this son told me." Then he asked each of the four daughters to report his age, and pointed to the eldest as the elder.

The arrangement has been decided, come out by yourself. Thinking that there are not enough things in the city, it is better to buy some things. For example, the millet of these four families has nowhere to grow and nowhere to cook. Isn't it possible to have a woman and a child eat with a group of big men?

After coming out, Cao Bao found Zheng Anping and said his thoughts. Zheng Anping was very much in agreement, and several people discussed what to buy, and quickly made a list. But the question is where to buy? There are also merchants in the township, but they are unpredictable, and there are only a few small things. The basic things they want to buy are tableware, baskets, baskets and other containers, and the merchants can't bring them at all, so they can only go to the market to buy them. The nearest market is Huayang, which is closer to Xingyang in the north; But Xingyang Bazaar is big and has a lot of goods, which is cheap and good. As a result of the discussion, I still had to ask Uncle Tang to buy it in Xingyang and send it over on the opportunity of the opening of the car dealership.

It's obviously too late today, and how to make the four pairs of mothers and sons eat has become the central topic of discussion. In the end, the men left when they had finished eating, and then called the women over to do it again. Until the new cutlery arrives. After the discussion, Cao Bao stopped talking nonsense and got up directly to Xingyang. What should the rest of the people do?

When it was time to eat, Cao Bao had not yet returned, and everyone had to change the order and let the women eat first. So the men scooped out two buckets of millet, brought two jars of water, and called Wuwang to inform the opening of the meal. Then everyone saw an interesting scene: Wuwang was walking in front, and four women led the children to follow behind, from Zheng Anping's west courtyard, to the post station. The men who were hiding on the side couldn't help but laugh when they saw it.

The women were instructed to eat bowls, water, millet, etc., and told them to be careful of Mars. Wuwang also retreated, closed the door, and allowed the woman and the child to cook and eat inside. And he sat at the door, and when they had finished eating, he led them back.

Zheng Anping walked to the door and asked Wuwang, "What is the broom?" ”

Wuwang said: "Everyone has two knots, and there will be no obstacles." ”

Zheng Anping said: "How much is it? ”

Wuwang said: "His son pulls the grass, and his mother knots the broom, and he has no two brooms for most of the day?" ”

Xiao Sidao: "While it's not there, it's a broom?" ”

Brother Su said: "What do you think of the broom? ”

Zheng Anping said: "The fourth brother lives alone, and I am afraid that I have not seen his broom. Everyone smiled and came to Zheng Anping's west courtyard together.

The most obvious feeling is that there is less grass. Sure enough, there were eight good straw brooms in the courtyard, all of which were simply knotted into bundles of hay, and then woven into straw ropes with relatively long straw and tied. They picked it up and weighed it, and tied it firmly. Everyone thinks that these women have to be willing to work and able to work, and they are relieved.

When they returned, Mr. Cao also returned. Stand in front of the door and talk to Wuwang. I couldn't help but laugh when I learned that everyone was going to visit the freshly knotted broom. When he saw everyone coming back, he sneered: "Do you have the virtue of kissing the woman's broom?" ”

Xiao Si said: "But look at its ears." ”

Cao Bao said: "Women have four virtues, virtue and tolerance. Work in it, too. ”

Zheng Anping said: "Mr. went to Daliang, what can the matchmaker of the four brothers do?" ”

Cao Bao patted his head and said, "Mistake, mistake!" Everyone thought that Cao Bao had forgotten to do it, and Cao Bao said: "What a late! Tired four brothers worried for a few days! The crowd laughed.

Cao Bao said: "I will go to Daliang and talk about this matter." On the side of Lu Bo, the daughter of the wine shop outside Wenyi was recommended as a matchmaker. The next day, the minister went to receive the order, and Lu Bo said that his father had paid his birth to Lu Bo, and the king asked someone to tell him, but he came to inform him on the day. The fourth brother should not worry. ”

Brother Su patted Xiao Si and said: "The gentleman is doing it himself, what are you worried about!" His father is Dayun, so why worry about his brother! ”

Xiao Si's face was flushed, excited, and shy, and he didn't know what to say, so he just pulled his legs and ran away. Everyone laughed.

Cao Baofu said to Zheng Anping: "The order should also know that the king's marriage is only between morning and evening, and there should be an edict soon." Congratulations today! ”

Everyone coaxed and congratulated Zheng Anping again. Zheng Anping's expression was calm, and he thanked them one by one.

Cao Bao said: "Uncle Tang's day, Dai Jia's things should be the same." If the car can stand, everything may be done. ”

Zheng Anping said: "There is a lack of wealth in the city, and it is difficult to take care of everything. However, when it was first built, everything was not prepared, and there was a lot of need. It's hard. ”

Cao Bao said: "But if it is difficult, it is to see its merits!" ”

While we were talking, there was a knock at the door. Wuwang opened the door, and the women all stood at the door, saying, "We are ready to return after eating." ”

Wuwang took them out, and they bowed slightly to Zheng Anping and left in a hurry.

When the men entered the door, they saw that the bowl had been cleaned with weeds, but the bowl was too big for the women to wash, so they had to leave it like that, and there was almost no porridge left in it. The two buckets of millet were not finished, and there was about half a bucket left. These details made Zheng Anping have a better impression of them.

A few men ate their own porridge. Seven men, after eating three buckets of millet.

The next few days passed relatively peacefully, and the women were arranged to clean all the official residences, including the car dealership. Xiao Si went out to patrol every day, and Cao Bao routinely walked around, and from time to time he went into Guanyi City to patrol. The remaining five men were herding cattle and sheep while harvesting ripe grain, harvesting most of the baskets a day and drying them on a deserted foundation. Chicks, puppies, lambs, and calves have all grown up and are free of any diseases. The abandoned city is harmonious and tranquil, a pastoral song.

Uncle Tang and the others came in the first car and brought Zheng Anping and the things they bought. Zheng Anping gave each woman a mustache, two bowls and two jars, plus a basket and a basket. From then on, the women did not have to come out to the post station to eat, every day, Wuwang and Wu'er carried a bucket of millet in one hand, poured them in the basket, and let the mother and son cook by themselves.

One day, Cao Bao found these women, asked them about the situation in their mother's hometown, and asked them if they wanted to go back to their parents' house. They naturally said that they wanted to, but the road was far away, and a woman couldn't go back.

Uncle Tang left two companions to keep the car dealership running, leaving them enough millet and cooking utensils. The two don't usually stay in the industry much, often go out, and don't know where to go. Cao Bao wrapped up the ox cart and took a woman and her child back to her parents' house from time to time. Go out the morning the first day, rest for the night, and come back the next day. When I came back, sometimes I would come back with a young man, and sometimes a few days later, a young man would come to my door, all of whom were young people from the women's mother's family. Cao Bao introduced these people to Zheng Anping, saying that he was a pawn selected by himself. In about a month, all four post guards were assembled. Xiao Si takes them to run along the river every day.

After passing the assessment, Zheng Anping allocated 100 acres of land to each of the four people, which was considered their salary. At this time, it was just May, and it was still time to plant. So the millet that had just been harvested was immediately turned into seeds and sown in the fields.

During the month, the millet harvest in Guanyi was almost finished, and the puppies were able to run around the meadow to catch game. Then, the first business of Huayang Auto Dealership also came.

A total of four cars stayed at the car dealership. The cookware instantly became nervous, and the two coachmen were careful to borrow a tripod from the commander. Cao Bao personally went over to accompany him.

The convoy was going to transport goods to Daliang, and Xiao Si was dressed as a warrior, and brought a newly recruited post man and a Tang coachman to drive to Daliang together.

After Xiao Si left, Brother Dog took on the work of anti-theft, and walked around with a halberd every day. The four women had eaten a full meal for a month, and they did not work much, and their bodies gradually became fuller. The child also became strong. Zheng Anping gave them a day off, and asked them to take the millet they had saved back to their homes in Guanyi to subsidize the family, and by the way, bring back some of their own necessities. The two places are not far apart, they finished breakfast, went out with Cao Bao, came out in the afternoon, followed Brother Dog home, and were just in time to make dinner.

The changes that were visible to the naked eye in a month spread in the small city of Guanyi. As a result, the word became more and more evil, and they became the concubines of the doctors, and the children became concubines, and soon they might give birth to sons for these doctors. Of course, these rumors will come back, making Zheng Anping and them cry and laugh.

A few days later, Xiao Si came back with the convoy, and it was Mr. Zhong Yue who followed.

Mr. Zhong Yue said politely as always: "Zheng Gongzi has not seen him for a long time, and he is outstanding. Zheng Anping thanked him.

Mr. Zhong Yue greeted everyone one by one and said, "Your Excellency is very pleased to hear about the deeds of your brothers. In a few months, the brothers were governed, the people were safe, the corn was harvested, and the grain was prepared. The resumption of the car dealership trade, the post road is gradually opened, and the news is all over the world. Wei Shu respectfully obeys the king's orders, to the hard work! ”

Everyone answered, "Divide it!" ”

Mr. Zhong Yue said: "The fourth brother is here, and the marriage will be completed. The king repeatedly comforted that Zheng Gongzi's marriage may be completed. ”

Zheng Anping said: "Inherit the great kindness of the king, dare to repay him with death!" ”

The five took the car to the car dealership, prepared to have dinner, and then returned to Huayang after a night's rest. The owner of the goods made a great profit in this trip, and invited everyone to the car shop for a meal. Everyone refused to say goodbye, so they had to go to the car shop to eat together. During the banquet, although it was only a porridge and a water, they also ate with great interest, the guests and hosts were happy, they met with goods, and they also took this trade route. The drivers guarantee that there will be no mistakes.
