Chapter 54: Look at each other
In the year of famine, it was even worse, so he could only go over the mountains and mountains to buy things in the victorious country.
Although they don't understand the language, they are generous and people are willing to do business with them.
After a long time, there are some people like Zhao Xiaozi who have started the work of translation, and they can make money at both ends without having to pay for it.
"But this job is not something that everyone can do, and if I give me two more lifetimes, I won't be able to learn Fanbang dialect, so I won't eat that bowl of rice." The aunt laughed.
Zhao Xiaozi's family was originally an ordinary farmer, and it wasn't until he made a translator that he dragged it up.
Looking at Lu Qingcao, the aunt's eyes were full of envy: "You can speak Mandarin at a young age, and you will have endless silver just to translate in the future, which is really good." ”
Lu Qingcao pursed her lips.
Isn't this the foreign trade of the 21st century?
It turns out that the ancients have had it for a long time!
She didn't answer, and said modestly: "I also learned by chance, and there are a lot of things I don't understand, so it's no problem to be foolish." ”
The two of them burst out laughing.
——
The Su family, Zhao Hehua, Su Eryou, and Su Dazhuang sat in rows, all lying on the bed.
Su Dazhuang's injuries were not serious, but they gave him an excuse to lie in bed and rest.
Therefore, Tian Xiao'e has to send three meals a day to bed.
Fortunately, Zhao Hehua can already go down to the ground on crutches.
She was on crutches in one hand and fed Su Eryou with the other, and did not forget to scold Lu Qingcao: "I said that she was a goblin at the beginning, you had to pick her up from the mountains and bring her home, now it's okay, you were beaten like this by her, how can you live in the future......
Su Eryou couldn't talk back, so he could only chew sorghum rice silently.
The rice is served with homemade pickles, and the taste is not very good, and it can barely be eaten.
Su Xiaofang hugged Su Jiabao and pricked up her ears to listen to the movement in the house.
After Su Dazhuang was injured, Tian Xiao'e threw herself on him, and she didn't have the time to take care of her family affairs.
"Eat it." She stuffed the corn paste into Su Jiabao's mouth, and easily stuffed the remaining half of the nest head into her mouth.
There was only a little sorghum rice left at home, and it was all boiled for Su Dazhuang and Su Eryou to eat, and they could only drink corn paste.
There was no more silver, and the whole family could only drink the northwest wind.
"Mother, why hasn't Mrs. Jin moved, she said that she would find time to see each other." Su Xiaofang finally couldn't hold it anymore and moved a small bench to the house.
The smell of excrement in the house mixed with the smell of food was unbearable.
She could only sit sideways at the door, turning back to talk to Tian Xiao'e from time to time.
Tian Xiao'e was also stunned, Mrs. Jin came to urge her a few days ago, why is there no movement now?
The family has no money, and if there is no bride price......
"No, I'll have to ask." Tian Xiao'e stuffed the rice bowl into Su Xiaofang's arms and turned around to leave.
"Brother Su, Xiao'e, are you at home?" There was a full voice outside the house, and Jin Pozi walked slowly with her fat body, followed by three people......
The three of them were all dressed in satin clothes, carrying things in their hands, and the red and bright ones were very eye-catching.
Su Dazhuang didn't pretend anymore, got up and walked outside: "It's Aunt Jin, come in." ”
He closed the door to the Westinghouse and shut them inside.
Tian Xiao'e held the rice bowl in a daze, happily at a loss, and followed behind her man, like a child: "You guys are coming, come in and sit." ”
Seeing the three people behind Mrs. Jin, the couple both tacitly agreed.
"I said before, you see that I brought people today, and they are also down-to-earth people, and they also brought things." Jin Pozi pointed to a few boxy boxes on the ground.
Tian Xiao'e couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and quickly nodded in response: "Yes, yes." ”
Su Xiaofang stayed in the west room, pulled open the crack and looked outside.
The Qi family and his wife are not tall, and the clothes on their bodies are the most fashionable satin, slippery and shiny, and they are worth a lot of money at a glance.
Behind him was his son, who was also as short as he was, fat like a potato, with the flesh on his face piled together, and his eyes were very open, like a mask sold in the bazaar, which was a little scary.
He looked around blankly, and he didn't look smart.
"The Qi family lives in Qijia Village, which is five miles away, and if it is really done in the future, it will be convenient for you to go to see the girl." Jin Pozi is even more tongue-in-cheek, and she can't stop boasting.
The Qi family and his wife didn't speak, Master Qi's face was serious and solemn, as heavy as if he had just attended the funeral, and Mrs. Qi's face was sallow, and she kept her head down and didn't say anything.
Su Xiaofang's heart sank.
Originally, I didn't think that people were good, but this is too bad.
You don't necessarily know how to run home when it's raining.
Su Dazhuang and Tian Xiao'e still talked to others, eager to marry Su Xiaofang tomorrow.
"Okay, that's considered to be seen, it just so happens that both sides are there, so the date is set." Mrs. Jin said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tian Xiao'e couldn't help but nod: "Okay, okay, let's decide now." ”
Su Dazhuang glanced at her, and she immediately shut up and stopped talking.
Jin Pozi saw his thoughts, stretched out his hand and poked the Qi family, Qi Tianming immediately took out five taels of silver and put it on the table.
Su Dazhuang's eyes lit up.
"The fifteenth day of this month is a good day, so this day will be set." Qi Tianming said.
He has a rough voice and speaks in a very harsh voice.
Today is eleven and there are only four days left until fifteen.
"Okay, then fifteen." Su Dazhuang agreed.
Mrs. Jin happily took a few people out, and the stupid Qi Jiaxing heard that he was leaving, so he sat on the ground and cried loudly: "I'm not leaving, I want a daughter-in-law, I want a daughter-in-law!" Mother, you said that you will find me a daughter-in-law......"
He threw and rolled on the ground, crying with his mouth wide open like a child.
Qi Tianming looked at Su Dazhuang in embarrassment, kicked him and said, "Don't cry, hurry home!" ”
Li Laidi also hurriedly hugged her son, coaxing and pulling out: "Okay, don't cry, Jiaxing, let's go home first, and then marry a daughter-in-law in a few days......"
Qi Jiaxing suddenly went crazy and punched and kicked his mother: "I don't care, I want a daughter-in-law!" I'm going to sleep with my daughter-in-law in my arms! ”
The fist rained down on her body, Li Laidi didn't say a word, and endured it silently, as if she had already gotten used to it.
Qi Tianming only felt embarrassed, and lowered his voice and scolded: "Jiaxing, go home!" ”
The fist stopped, Qi Jiaxing pursed his lips aggrievedly, trembling with fear, and didn't dare to move.
Several people hurried home.
Mrs. Jin also smiled embarrassedly and left with a few people.
Tian Xiao'e looked at the blood stains on the ground, and her voice trembled a little: "Da Zhuang, why does this fool still beat people?" ”
Su Dazhuang pursed his lips, his brows furrowed into a line, and he spoke after a while: "His brain is broken, and he will be beaten twice, it's nothing, maybe it will be fine after becoming a parent." ”
Tian Xiao'e was stunned for a moment, and finally nodded: "Yes, yes, then get married first, maybe it will be good after getting married." ”
