The gang of Huanggang means ridge and ridge.

The ping of Li Ping means the flat land of the mountainous or hilly part.

From a topographical point of view, the eldest sister's future husband's house is located in Sanyuan Village, Liping Town, which is actually in the same vein as Tianji, and the distance is only more than ten miles.

But it is these more than ten miles of road that make the two towns belong to different counties, and the customs and habits are very different.

For a simple example, Tianji people celebrate the New Year at noon, and they want the whole family to have a reunion dinner together, but Li Pingren is in the afternoon.

In order to find out the news, Luo Xueyun made full preparations, painted his face yellow in the mountains and forests, and smeared some impurities, making him look like a young man who had suffered hardships.

Wearing a straw hat, cloth shoes, and a blanket on his back, he looks like a merchant walking in the countryside.

In recent years, there are not many outsiders in the village, especially in the mountain village, so as soon as Luo Xueyun walked to the entrance of Sanyuan Village, many people stared at him.

"Kids, do you want to eat candy?"

Luo Xueyun squeezed out a kind smile and pretended to take out the candy from the blanket.

Unexpectedly, a group of children stared at him for a while, and the candy dispersed in a hurry, shouting that some traffickers were coming.

He smiled bitterly, and then looked at the earthen house of the third family at the entrance of the village.

This is a tip from Luo Yu.

According to the custom of blind date, the woman will take a large family to the man's house to look after the family, which is also called watching the pot house.

The eldest sister doesn't talk much, but she has it in her heart, and she has only been here once, so she remembers that the man is on the road to the village, the third house on the left, and there is a pear tree at the door.

There are not many people in the family who have seen the man, at that time, in order to save a bride price for Luo Xuefeng, the eldest sister's blind date was very sloppy, Luo Xueyun was still working, and Luo's father and the two of them quickly decided.

The eldest sister is a gentle character, she doesn't know how to refute and talk back, so she is confused and obedient, otherwise she should never marry her daughter to a foreign country in order to marry a "good daughter-in-law" from the same village for her eldest son.

What is this?

The child dispersed in a hurry, just to give Luo Xueyun a chance, he didn't think about it, and went straight to the third Mo family's sheng house.

"Woohoo!"

The fierce dog barked loudly, and soon a fierce-looking old woman poked her head out, still holding a mallet in her hand, which should be the man's mother Gao Ying.

"What for?"

Luo Xueyun smiled gently: "Auntie, I am a merchant who collects mountain goods, and I have been walking for a long time, and I want to beg for saliva to drink when I see your family open." ”

Gao Ying waved his mallet and said, "No, you go to another house." ”

As he spoke, he closed the door.

Luo Xueyun said: "Auntie, I'll pick your two pears to quench your thirst, don't do it." ”

"Not really."

The door creaked open, and Gao Ying stood under the lintel again, and said impatiently: "My family's pears are big and sweet, if you want to pick them and sell them for money, how can you give them to others to eat for nothing?" ”

Luo Xueyun said with a smile: "I am a merchant who collects mountain goods, if you have a lot of pears, I can buy them at a price, and the cart will come to pull them." ”

Gao Ying looked at Luo Xueyun carefully, raised her eyebrows and said, "How much money do you pay?" ”

Luo Xueyun was not in a hurry: "It depends on how many catties there are and how they look, if the pears are juicy and sweet, they will naturally have a higher price." ”

Gao Ying sneered a few times: "What should I be, it turned out to be a liar who sells his mouth, and wants to coax my pears to eat, get out of here, otherwise I will let the dog bite you." ”

As he spoke, he turned around to untie the rope of the big black dog, and Luo Xueyun was very cooperative when he saw this, and waved his hand away.

As soon as he turned his head, his face turned cold.

After a glance, Gao Ying opened the door wide and stared at the pear tree, as if she was afraid that Luo Xueyun would steal her pear.

"What do you do?"

Luo Xueyun didn't go two ways, an old man in a vest looked at him vigilantly, carrying an iron sheep fork in his hand, followed by a group of children behind him.

The sheep fork is a kind of agricultural tool, the end of the long wooden handle is equipped with a U-shaped arc iron fork, which is generally used to shovel together the straw laid on the threshing floor.

Although it is not good to use as a weapon because of the arc problem, it has no problem to hurt people.

"Uncle, my name is Liu Bo, I am a merchant from Chenqing County, and I went into the mountains to collect mountain goods, not some human traffickers."

Luo Xueyun took out a cigarette from his coat, handed one to the old man, and then took out a matchbox and scratched it.

"Uncle, what do you call it?"

"Guy's pretty well done." The old man pinned the cigarette to his ear, but he didn't pick up Luo Xueyun's fire, "Just you collect the mountain goods alone?" I don't even have a flat pole, so I can carry it back. ”

"Look at what Uncle said, how much can you pick with a flat pole, our village is close to the mountains, I will get this little thing back after a hard run, and it is not enough for leg money." Luo Xueyun said with a smile, "I will collect it here first, and determine the weight and directly contact the tractor to pull it away." ”

"What do you receive?"

"Chestnuts, hazelnuts, herbs, brooms, hemp rope, game, mushrooms, furs...... As long as it's a rare thing in the mountains, it's fine. ”

"It's pretty total." The old man said, "What did you do at that house just now?" ”

Luo Xueyun smiled bitterly: "I just want to beg for a bowl of water to drink, who knows that the lady refuses, and she is afraid that I will pick her pears, and she wants to let the dog bite me." ”

The old man said, "Come with me." ”

With the correct accent and correct image, the old man's vigilance against Luo Xueyun was greatly reduced, and he walked home with him.

The little ones also dared to accept his sweets.

Luo Xueyun touched their heads with his hand, and said as he walked: "Uncle, are these children from your family?" ”

The old man stopped suddenly.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't get me wrong." Luo Xueyun hurriedly waved his hand, "I just see that they have yellow and thin faces, and their faces are not good, like there are worms in their stomachs, I should take them to see a doctor and take some medicine to eat, otherwise the child will suffer." ”

The old man was suspicious: "Will you still see the disease?" ”

Luo Xueyun said: "I have been to many places, I have seen similar situations, if my uncle doesn't mind, I still have some pagoda candy here, which can be given to the children to fight insects." ”

The old man took the pagoda candy, and when he saw the candy in the bottle like a small white flower roll, his face finally eased: "I didn't expect you to have this thing, the doctor in the team said that it will not be produced outside." ”

"There's always something that doesn't sell out."

The old man's name is Mo Bingzhi, and his house is closer to the mountain, and there is a path behind the house that can obviously go up the mountain.

He had two dogs, both of them very large, bright yellow, with smooth fur, very spiritual, and when he saw his master bringing guests into the house, he just watched vigilantly, but did not roar.

"I like it, these two are good helpers."

"Look extraordinary, more powerful and spiritual than the pear tree."

"Hehe, one yellow, two black, three flowers and four white, Lao Sheng's dog can only watch the door, how can it compare to my domestication, can go up the mountain into the forest, and don't take half a step back when encountering jackals."

"Yo he, I didn't expect my uncle to be an old man, I guess there must be a lot of mountain goods at home, it seems that I have come to the right place."

"Haha......" Mo Bingzhi smiled, "That's exactly what you mean by inviting you here." ”

Luo Xueyun felt that he was a breakthrough and very generous, and he gave a high price for chestnuts, hazelnuts, fur and some bits and pieces of medicinal materials at home, which made his family look at him pleasing to the eye, and they were trying to help him shout and buy mountain goods in the village.

"You must stay at home for a meal, I invite you to drink tiger bone wine!" Mo Bingzhi said with a grin.

Luo Xueyun, who was thinking about it, his eyes lit up: "Is it real tiger bone wine?" ”
