Lu Jizhou was not in a hurry: "Miss Du asked this question because she heard about the crippled few thieves in Xia, right?" ”

Du Ruoli nodded: "Exactly, it's not like your style." ”

"People are sometimes impulsive and desperate." Lu Jizhou said: "When you have just lost a loved one and are lying in bed half dead, and you hear someone scolding your eighteenth generation ancestor, you really can't control your fists. Not beating them to death is already my last tenderness. ”

Lu Jizhou's expression suddenly became sad, so thick that he couldn't dissolve. The eyes of the deep pool were dark, as if they were experiencing a rainstorm.

"That's really unbearable!" Du Ruoli looked at him and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't think about it so much, Brother Lu don't have the same knowledge as me." ”

As he spoke, he took out two pumpkin seeds: "Dangdangdang, I will give you two pumpkin seeds for free." Plant the seeds in your own yard and give enough space, so that a family of seven or eight people will have endless melons to eat a year. No, from the time the vines grow, you can pinch and eat the tips of melons. After flowering, the male flowers that do not bear fruit can also be picked and eaten after completing the pollination task. Tender pumpkin is one flavor, and old is another. Eat four melons in one melon, are you happy? ”

Lu Jizhou's sadness was only a momentary thing, and at this time, looking at the girl who was desperately coaxing him, a strange emotion rose in his heart, he reached out to take the pumpkin seeds, and whispered: "Happy!" ”

"Just be happy!" Du Ruoli suddenly leaned into Lu Jizhou's ear and whispered, "Brother Lu, why don't we go to Qingyun County?" I made a lot of money the night before, and I don't spend some money to go out! ”

Half of Lu Jizhou's body was numb, and the ghost envoy nodded and said, "Cheng, there are some things that need to be added below, let's go!" ”

"Let's go!"

Du Ruoli couldn't hide her excitement. My sister is taken care of by Xiaoqiu, and Zhou Daya will come back to feed when the time comes, so she can rest assured that she can make money.

Du Ruoli walked first, and after walking for about a mile, Lu Jizhou followed, picked her up with her on his back, and ran forward with the wind under his feet.

Du Ruoli once again experienced the feeling of flying.

This time, there is no need to be afraid of being seen, Du Ruoli screamed again and again behind him, so unhappy.

Lu Jizhou was infected by her happiness and smiled unconsciously.

When he was about to arrive at the gate of the city, Lu Jizhou put Du Ruoli down, made an appointment with her to wait here for an hour, and then parted ways with her to do his own big business.

Du Ruoli had a lot of silver in her hand, and she wanted to stock up on some silk, porcelain and tea. In the frontier areas, these three hard currencies are better than gold and silver, and the more you stockpile, the better.

This time to buy silk, Du Ruoli avoided Qiu Ji and came to a silk shop called Wang Ji.

"Shopkeeper, please bring me that blue entwined lotus......

Before he finished speaking, he heard an exclamation from the door: "Ah Li? Du Jia A Li? ”

Du Ruoli turned her head and looked at the young man who was walking quickly.

The man is quite tall, fair-skinned, and has handsome eyebrows. He was followed by a somewhat old-looking woman.

The two of them are dressed decently, not like people they knew each other in their original bodies.

It's even more unlikely that she knows her!

The man came to her in an instant, staring at her face left and right: "Is it really Ah Li?" How did you get here? Alone? Where's your mom and dad? ”

Du Ruoli finally remembered that this person was the original clan brother, Du Zhizhang, the brother of Du Ruoying's mother.

If you want to say that this Du Zhizhang is also a strange person. Two years ago, I saw a second-married widow outside, and I had to be a son-in-law for others.

Wu Yueniang and the clan disagreed, he actually ran away secretly, cooked the raw rice into rice, and came back with the marriage certificate and said: "The matter has come to this, even if you kill me, it is useless." ”

He was so angry that his mother vomited three liters of blood, and the patriarch did not allow the clansmen to have anything to do with him.

Not only that, but his widowed mother and sister became the bottom of the chain of contempt in the clan, and they were on the same status as the original desperate family.

Therefore, the relationship between the two families is particularly good, and they are warm together.

At this time, in the face of this brother who didn't care about the life or death of his family, Du Ruoli was a little angry: "Not only I appeared here, but your mother, your sister, and the entire Du family appeared here." We've been exiled to the frontier! ”

Du Zhizhang was a little unresponsive: "What did you say?" Exile? The whole family? ”

The woman beside him gave him a look: "Husband, the clan sister came from afar, take the clan sister upstairs to drink tea, and talk while drinking." ”

"Ah, yes, Sister Ali, go upstairs with your brother!" Du Zhizhang said.

Good guy, it turns out that this Wang Ji belongs to his family, it is really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family!

Du Ruoli didn't mind going upstairs with him and telling him what kind of life his mother and sister were living to see if he would feel embarrassed.

What I never expected was that Du Zhizhang's first sentence when he entered the door was: "My Du clan was exiled because of Du Zhizhong's dog miscellaneous!" I advised the patriarch not to indulge him, and not to give him a ladder, or it would bring disaster to the whole clan. The patriarch doesn't listen, no one listens, the special mother, all of them are blind! ”

"So, why don't you just go into another family and not have anything to do with the Du family?" Du Ruoli asked.

Du Zhizhang, now with his wife Wang Ying's surname, changed his name to Wang Zhizhang, nodded and said: "Exactly, otherwise I am the only son in the family, why should I be rich?" Xiaoying doesn't care whether to marry or marry, it's me who wants to marry, I want to get rid of the relationship with the Du family, and at the same time preserve my strength. ”

Wang Ying brought a large plate of tea and snacks for Du Ruoli, and nodded: "Exactly, I can do it, everything is as my husband wants." Cousin, are my mother-in-law and sister-in-law okay? Where do they live now, and can your brother and I go to see them? ”

Du Ruoli couldn't imagine that there was such a far-sighted and courageous smart person as Du Zhizhang in the family, so her attitude eased and she said with a smile: "Aunt and Yingzi are not as good as you, but they are better than most exiled prisoners, and they will rest in the cave in front tonight......"

They were chatting here, but the pot was fried in the cave.

The grandmother of the third hall was asking the patriarch loudly: "Patriarch, can you come up with some money to buy a few catties of cotton and a few catties of grain for each family?" ”

Her proposal was met with by most people: "Yes, let's buy something, we're hungry and cold, and we can't survive." ”

"It's all spent......"

"It's all spent......"

The patriarch's ears were buzzing, and his eyes were black for a while.

Where does he have any money? All the output of the clan field was used for Du Zhizhong to study, and it was time for him to have an official career. The forty taels of silver that were found were given to Du Zhizhong, I am afraid that they have been spent.

All he could take out was three taels of silver, far from enough to buy cotton and grain.
