Xu escaped the famine, and because he was afraid of mountain bandits next to the mountain, the Bai family paid special attention to the issue of safety, and the cellar was built very differently.

In one place, like the people in the village, a cellar was dug under the utility room next to the west wing where the grain was placed.

The backyard is next to a pigsty where pig food is cooked.

Gu Erzhu stretched out his legs and kicked back and forth on both sides of a bluestone slab on the open space where firewood was placed, and soon heard the sound of "crunching".

A hole appears in front of you.

He poked forward with a torch, and in front of him was an earthen staircase with dirt walls on the edges, which was very primitive.

As you descend the steps, you suddenly see a stone chamber in front of you.

In the middle, a row of wooden frames from the ground to the top is divided into two.

There is a jar and an urn on one side, and on one side the ground is padded with a thick layer of wood.

"Dad, is there even new grain here?"

"You Grandpa Bai is saying, I just looked at the cylinder he opened, but I didn't look closely."

"Their family should secretly change the grain once a year, put the new grain in, and pull the old grain out." Gu Wenxuan's finger clicked on the red paper pasted on the cylinder.

Gu Erlang took a closer look and couldn't help but smile, "It's true, you can still smell the ink fragrance." Dad, where is the blowhole? ”

"Look up there." Gu Erzhu pointed to the side, "That's the pora, and above it is the firewood shed."

You can't forget this, you still have to talk to your daughter-in-law in private.

It's really something, our grandfather and his wife just happened to be not at home, and your mother and they have to hide here to avoid trouble.

Of course, the heart of defense is indispensable, and the Bai family also has daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law.

When we move in, we have to find a chance to block the entrance and see if we can change it to come in from that end......"

Gu Erzhu took his two sons to see the cellar, and the Liu family also asked the old daughter to accompany the eldest grandson, and he took the two daughters-in-law to the stove room to see what was missing.

Ma Shan took the opportunity to ask Liu quietly, "Mother, can you tell me how much money you spent to buy it?" ”

When asked, she regretted it a little and hurriedly remedied, "I didn't mean anything else, I just couldn't help but want to ask you." ”

Liu shook his head with a smile, "What can't be said about this."

It is said that when the house was built, it cost almost forty taels of silver.

But this is not in the city, and the house is some years old.

The old Bai family is kind, they don't ask for much price. Even the yamen deed added up, and your father bought it for almost thirty-five taels of silver. ”

"It's not a high price."

Definitely.

Our father-in-law is no ordinary person.

Whoever is wronged will not be him.

As for the 22 acres of land deeds, Zhou Banxia guessed that he definitely couldn't hide it.

In desperation, I looked for Gu Erye, and then I looked for Uncle Gu to have the promise of returning.

Otherwise, at that time, the mother-in-law could be regarded as married to him as he wished, but she was also angry.

I don't know if I don't know if I can't have a heart, and I have to be pinched in the palm of my hand by the old man when I hand it in.

"Is there enough money? I have it on hand, so don't go to outsiders to borrow money and take on debts. ”

Zhou Banxia nodded in agreement, "How much is missing, you just have to say."

We are a family, there is no need to divide yours, it is still mine, we have to divide it clearly. ”

Liu looked at the two daughters-in-law with satisfaction, "No need at the moment, your father and I still have some silver in our hands." Even externally, I have to say that it was the thirty taels of silver that the two of you made up for your mother. ”

Understand!

Got it!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were amused.

However, speaking of which, Liu also mentioned one thing to his two daughters-in-law.

Because the child's father was anxious to want the Bai family's yard, he agreed to a condition proposed by the Bai family.

The Bai family has land to rent to others in the village to take care of, and if the children and grandchildren of the Bai family want to buy land and build houses in the village in the future, her two children and grandchildren will have to help make peace.

This does not mean that in the future, her two children and grandchildren must help the children and grandchildren of the Bai family settle in Qinghe Village, but Uncle Bai wants to make a promise to leave more ways for his children and grandchildren.

Since she promised someone, although it was not written into the contract, with Uncle Bai's actions today, she still hopes that the two daughters-in-law will one day not let her two of them lose their trust.

Zhou Banxia naturally would not agree.

The other party still has land in Qinghe Village, and it is not too much to mention this condition.

It's just that, as my mother-in-law said, I leave more ways for my children and grandchildren.

Ma Shan immediately looked at Zhou Banxia.

Zhou Banxia blinked.

Let's not mention it first, the purpose of their daughters-in-law to buy land is nothing more than to supplement the family. When the land is bought, it is not too late to point it out with my mother-in-law when the land deed is in hand.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law turned around the stove room, checked the household belongings that still needed to be purchased, and then transferred from the front yard to the back yard, and Gu Erzhu, father and son, also came up.

"Daddy, the weather is getting colder and colder, I'm not afraid of snow, I'm afraid of rain, I have to hurry."

Gu Erzhu was about to say that he was going to find someone to pick an auspicious day to enter the house first, and then see that there were a few days to renovate the house, and when he heard Liu's reminder, he hurriedly divided the work first.

He simply took his two sons out to busy them, and asked Liu to take his daughter-in-law at home to prepare the food for entertaining the master and helpers.

Said to go, the speed was fast, Liu didn't have time to ask him about how many people to ask for help, and the father and son ran away directly from the back door.

"Mother, the meat is not in a hurry, just go back and let Zhuangzi send it.

I'll go and see who hasn't had time to pickle vegetables first, find everyone to make up, how many buy back first? ”

Liu Shi thought about it.

Considering that the child's father ran away, her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will inevitably look at people's faces when they go back, so it is better to take advantage of this meeting to buy the yard and let the two children go grocery shopping.

"Okay, you go with Sanya. Who asked why you still bought vegetables, don't make your milk embarrassed, discuss and find an excuse. As he spoke, Liu hurriedly reached out and took out the money bag.

Zhou Banxia and Ma Shan did not refuse.

If you want to subsidize your family, when you don't have a chance.

The two of them almost traveled all over Qinghe Village, but they also bought a lot of white herbs, that is, Chinese cabbage, and mustard radishes for each family to help send back.

It was also this time that Zhou Banxia found that the farm vegetables were not only cucumbers, eggplants, winter melons, pumpkins, tomatoes, peppers, but also several types of beans.

Fortunately, with Ma Shan, otherwise the eldest aunt asked her which kind of beans she wanted, and she couldn't answer, she would be famous in Zhou Banxia.

Ma Shan is also very good at talking.

Real sales talents.

When buying fresh vegetables, her sister-in-law also boasted that she didn't buy such a good dried vegetable for her mother.

The Ma family is a Zhuangzi who hires long-term workers to breed livestock and game, and it is not far from Qinghe Village, but the family still lives in an old house halfway up the mountain.

said that his mother's family did not dry vegetables this year, and no one doubted it.

She can't do it, her husband's family is a village.

She wants to come forward to buy dried vegetables, and her mother can not come to see if she has too much money and can't spend it.

"Sanya!"

Got caught.

Li shouted.

Ma Shan almost died laughing.
