For the nephew and daughter of the Qi Fang family, Zhao Lu will not meddle in things.

Therefore, Qi Fang sighed over and over again that the good fields of Jiafu couldn't make a move, but Zhao Lu still held back, forget it, it's safer to go back and ask Qingwen.

There is no impermeable wall in the world, and there are a few masters in Jiafu who are quite small-minded, in case people feel unhappy and cause trouble to others.

When he returned to the house with Qi Fang and went through the formalities, Mrs. Hu had obviously finished her affairs.

Mrs. Hu is an old-fashioned enthusiast, whoever enters her eyes is digging out her heart and lungs, but this enthusiasm is so full that Zhao Lu himself can't resist it. Seeing someone waiting at the door, she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Didn't we say we'd see you at the vegetable market?" How did you come so far? ”

From Yushu Hutong to Hubu Yamen, there must be five or six miles of road.

"I wanted to wait for you at the city gate, but I was afraid that I would miss it, our family had never done anything to buy land, or I met an old neighbor who showed you the yard today. Can someone choose one? ”

How can it be rented out, Zhao Lu has the intention of making an industrial demonstration park, and he has no intention of renting it out at all!

"Just after the autumn harvest, there were still people picking up ears of grain in the field when I went, and I just had some thoughts, so I'll see later."

Mrs. Hu nodded thoughtfully, her family almost fled, and now she is satisfied to have a stable yard to live in, and there is no money left to buy property. It is precisely because of this that the couple decided to work steadily in the Tai Hospital after discussion.

I saw that an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl behind Mrs. Hu saw Zhao Lu, and she hesitated to step on her left foot and her right foot, looking cramped and uneasy.

"Who is she?"

The girl's clothes were ragged, and she only looked at her hands and feet as freshly washed, but there were no shoes on her feet, and the gray and yellow slag adhered to her bare feet, adding to the embarrassment.

"Quick! Your host, kowtow to her, and you will be her person from now on. Mrs. Hu turned her head to look at her, urging with a smile.

didn't wait for Zhao Lu to raise his hand, only to see the girl's knees bent and slam on the ground with a pop, and others felt pain for her when they saw it. Zhao Lu was dumbfounded, God, there is such a big girl with solid eyes in the world.

"Don't don't, don't kneel, get up, what's the matter?" Zhao Lu hurriedly pulled her up, looking at Rong Chang's face, thin body, withered yellow hair casually tied in a bun, and the clothes on her body could not distinguish the original color.

There was no need for her to ask, Mrs. Hu explained to herself, "Speaking of which, this girl was recognized by your Uncle Hu when he went to the doctor, and the daughter-in-law of the Chen family in Dongguo Village was ...... years ago."

As she spoke, Mrs. Hu suddenly leaned into Zhao Lu's ear, "Last year, her man drowned during flood control, and her child was not saved...... Hey, you say I'll tell you what to do! ”

So he pushed the girl in front of Zhao Lu: "It's okay to work on the stove, if you refuse to go to my place to eat, she will do it for you in the future." ”

Saying that, she stuffed a deed into Zhao Lu's hand, which felt too weird, it took her five years to break free from the shackles of this piece of paper, and now the same fluttering piece of paper has netted another person's life, making people can't help but ask, "What about the death deed?" Would she like to? ”

"It is said that she is willing, after all, if you don't accept her, the Chen family is only afraid that she will be immersed in a pig cage." Mrs. Hu said idly, of course dipping the pig cage is to fool Xiao Liu'er, but if she marries a little uncle or something, she probably won't be able to run away.

After all, who cares about the personal wishes of a bought daughter-in-law.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but feel a chill, and felt that she had done a great good deed, "Don't worry, your Uncle Hu has seen it, he is indeed dumb, and he will not take your affairs out and tell others." ”

No wonder I didn't see her say a word for so long, only a pair of eyes swirled on the two of them, with a sluggish desire and panic, as if Zhao Lu didn't want her, there was only one way to die.

Zhao Lu raised her forehead, she really didn't think about buying herself a messenger or anything. Although she knew that they would give each other servants as officials, they all had a hint of peach-colored atmosphere, and now that Mrs. Hu really gave her a servant, she only wanted to get: "How much?" ”

There is only one thought left in my head, what a personal feeling.

"What, how much?" Mrs. Hu began to pretend to be stupid, obviously not planning to let Zhao Lu pay the money.

Although Hu Junrong said that finding a daughter-in-law cannot only depend on her own wishes, but also on the wishes of the other party, she feels that she can work harder, just in case.

So they were extremely eager, and the three of them went home one foot deep and one foot shallow.

Fortunately, the courtyard that Zhao San bought has five rooms, large and small, and it is easy to vacate the ear room to sleep alone.

Thinking that the year he entered the Rongguo Mansion, he was also so nervous that he was washed over and over again, for fear that there would be parasites brought to the master's house of Jingui.

At present, the anthelmintic medicine has not had time to match, so they can only boil a large basin of mugwort leaf water, mixed with alkaline water leached with plant ash and rub their heads over and over again, and the grate of lice soaked in the water and rolled, and the two stared curiously at the lice swallowing, just in the girl's embarrassed eyes.

Ahem.

Zhao Lu ran for most of the day for eight acres of land, and the excitement of buying property has not passed, and the consequence of the continuous high spirit is that after cleaning up the girl's personal hygiene, a series of intestinal sounds, gurgling and shaking.

“……”

It's okay, as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's someone else who is embarrassed.

Zhao Lu looked at Mrs. Hu and the girl casually: "What do you call this sister?" Let's eat hot and sour noodles at noon, right? Can I clean up your place after eating? ”

Zhao Lu saw that her eyes lit up for a moment, and then dimmed again, he only nodded vigorously, and he was about to get up to boil water before his hair was dry.

The shrunken back was lonely, and even Mrs. Hu couldn't help but sigh, "I don't know what the surname is, the Chen family said that her maiden family is a homeless person, and she can't find anyone for a long time, her man is the second in line, and the people around her call her Erniang." ”

Sadly, eighteen or nineteen years old may not have graduated from high school at that time.

Zhao Lu's gaze has not been staggered on her, and her mind is full of how much it costs to support such a big person in a year, do you still have to pay some wages? Sure enough, she didn't give birth to that rich life, and she couldn't resist the sudden appearance of a 'subordinate' in her life.

Especially when it came to Erniang, the girl's body trembled a little, obviously afraid of this title, a mute who may have psychological trauma...... Zhao Lu sighed again.

She sighed more often today than in the past year, and she couldn't sigh anymore, and it hurt her liver, so she got up and went into the house and hugged a pot of soaked gray sweet potato noodles.

Coincidentally, her letter went out half a month ago, and just as she was thinking about whether Zhao San had received the letter, she suddenly received a letter from the dart bureau belonging to Zhao San. The letter was only a few words, but the package was bulging, and when I opened it, I realized that it was a large bag of corn seeds and sweet potato vermicelli.

Zhao Lu didn't think about it, she just thought that the ancient post station was so fast, and it only took more than half a month to go back and forth between the capital and Jinling, and she was lucky to catch the official ship.

"What kind of powder is hot and sour noodles?"

I couldn't explain this to Mrs. Hu, and with doubts, the scorched smell of spicy seeds in the yard mixed with the sour aroma of old vinegar made the three of them happy.

"Delicious!" Mrs. Hu was sweating profusely, but she was in high spirits, she loved to eat sour, but she didn't know that hot and spicy sour was more delicious, "Your craft, you can also open a food shop." ”

Throughout the ages, in the praise of the deliciousness of a person's cooking, the highest praise is that you can open a store.

Zhao Lu smiled and leaned back and said, yes, when we are on vacation, we will set up a stall in front of our house, anyway, we can live on the street, and we don't have to rent a stall alone.

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart, Mrs. Hu looked at her eyes and thought about the possibility, and unconsciously drank the soup in the bowl.

Erniang couldn't help but turn her back and lick the edge of the bowl.

Zhao Lu Nunu mouthed, and wanted to say that he would add another bowl, but when he thought that he had soaked two meals for one person in the morning, there was really no ready-made one bowl to add.

However, the new vermicelli has already been soaked, and when I eat it again in the evening, I can always fill it up, so Zhao Lu asked quietly: "The name Erniang is not good, how about we change it?" ”

Mental illness is to stay away from all sources of stimulation, and if the name makes her a bow and a snake, then change the name.

"Hmm." Erniang didn't dare to sit on the chair, squatted on the ground and stacked Mrs. Hu's empty bowl with herself, turned around and washed the bowl aside three or two times, staring at Zhao Lu with blank eyes, obviously waiting for the last bowl in her hand.

Zhao Lu was stared at by her, thinking that it would be rude to eat again, so he handed over half a bowl of soup, and just wanted to say pour it out, he saw Erniang pick up the bowl and get up, snoring and drinking it cleanly, without any disgust.

"......" Zhao Lu was worried, thinking that his heart disease would be treated, and his body would also be treated, which was too unparticular.

Erniang cherishes food very much, not to mention that when her family was in exile, she was hungry for nine meals in three days, even if she was married to a wife, she didn't have a good life for a few days.

When the farm is busy, brown rice with rice bran is added with beans, sorghum and mixed vegetables, and it is already a good day to be able to stew a pot of dry. But such a good meal, she didn't have to eat it if the Chen family didn't have the left.

The most eaten is to add a scoop of water to the stewed pot, dig out the remaining rice particles on the retort, add wild vegetables, and go by day after day.

She smiled flatteringly at the two of them, her mouth open, and she didn't say anything.

Zhao Lu was inexplicably a little sad, but asked Mrs. Hu to pat her thigh and shouted: "There is!" ”

"Surprise me!" The two of them shook their bodies, Erniang hurriedly turned around and picked up a broom and began to clean the yard, and when she saw a few red jujubes scattered on the jujube tree, hidden in the yellow leaves like lanterns, Erniang stood still under the tree.

Zhao Lu shouted that she took the pole down to eat, and at the beginning of the year, she asked people to plunder it, and there were not a few crooked melons and cracked dates left on the jujube tree, and she didn't pay attention to it when it was a year when the jujube was ripe.

Mrs. Hu pulled her and said that she wanted to partner in the business of a hot and sour noodle food stall, "If you want to be worth it on weekdays, then you will contribute to me, and we will divide the account fifty-fifty." ”

Seeing Zhao Lu's complicated expression, Mrs. Hu reluctantly gave in: "Four-six, I'm four, you're six." ”

There was a rattling sound from the jujube tree, and Mrs. Hu trembled and said, "You hire me too." ”

She has a stupid son in her family, and she can't rest assured if she wants to go out and do something, and she was detained in Jiafu for a while, her heart is about to break, and she secretly resolves that she will never do such a laborious thing in the future.

It's better to make less money than to take care of your own heart.

"Auntie, do you have any experience in opening a store?"

"Nope."

"Do you have any experience in settling accounts?"

"No, but who still doesn't understand the small account? Learn now! ”

Mrs. Hu swore that she imagined setting up a pot stall at the door, and a bowl of steaming hot and sour noodles in winter would definitely be liked, and even she saw what she looked like when she counted the money.

"If my aunt wants to do it, I will take a profit, and Fang Zi has no technical content, so I will give it to you." Zhao Lu thought to himself, the people in the capital are particular, and most people refuse to eat sweet potatoes, if they know that this vermicelli is made of sweet potato flour, I am afraid they will gossip.

"W-How does this work?"

"Auntie, you can do it yourself, I definitely don't have time to set up a stall with you for the time being." The sample of the bicycle has been sent to Baoyu by Tuo Qingwen, he is the most playful, and he will definitely let all the sons and sons know that there will be business to do anyway.

"By the way, I'm going to buy a mattress." said, pointed to Erniang on the jujube tree, "In two months, the price will be expensive when the weather is cold." ”

There are not many people who have brought them out of Jiafu, after all, how many people are staring at her, and they will not allow her to take more. Now, if she separates another set, she won't be able to change the wash.

Half a piece of Songjiang cotton cloth, although the price is expensive but durable, it is just right to make clothes for Erniang.

The capital is so good, the comfort of life is very high, there is already a complete home delivery service in this era, and the threshold for delivery is extremely low.

It's like her own order, which is only three dollars of silver, and she left the delivery address with a smile, and then hesitated to go out.

It's also difficult to do business, not only to be good, but also to be ingenious.

When it was dark, Zhao Lu pedaled out of the carpenter shop on her bicycle, looking at the sparse streets, she was a little stunned in her heart, if only she grew up a little more, just this deliberately cultivated small body, when she grows up, she will be first-class and strong.

"It's not a problem to take care of two street gangsters." She snorted softly, emboldening herself.

The autumn climate is a child's face, saying that it will change, and the sky will be clear before it arrives at home.

She took the car and people under the eaves on the edge of the restaurant, and saw that there was no one around and it was a little dark, so she took out Zhao San's bone chopping knife from the space, took a look at it and put it back.

Iron tools are expensive, and knives and guns can't be bought if you want to, so she often keeps the kitchen knives on her body, and one goes out for self-defense.

Second, I am afraid of being stolen.

Although the neighbor's wife received ten catties of sorghum rice and promised to help look after the house when she was away, it was better to rely on herself than on herself, not to mention that she was used to relying on herself.

The kitchen knife was put back into the space, and it turned into a big lama lying on the brocade box that Jia Mu rewarded, hissing...... It seems that there is a palm-sized space.

"Please respect Uncle Lai!" A crisp prevarication pulled the action of burying his head and drumming, without it, this voice is too familiar, it is a hail.

It's definitely Qihail, she searched around for the source of the sound, why did she come out when she didn't stay in Jiafu in such a heavy rain.
