He didn't ask the proprietress to cook noodles for him, but went to the dim sum shop to buy two uneaten desserts, slipped out to the street to eat a small bowl of steamed vegetables, and filled up three points before continuing to shop where he went yesterday.

In the past two days, most of the students in the county have been tortured, especially the out-of-towners in the state capital, Lu Xu is tired of shopping, and he can find a teahouse to sit down, and he can hear all kinds of accents chatting.

Fortunately, the accent gap between the counties in Longxing County is not too big, whether it is Chongning County in the northernmost county or Qingnan County in the south, he can understand it.

At this time, the scholars all entered the scene, and the family members who accompanied the examination talked about nothing more than the special products of various places, what was delicious in the state capital, and the war situation in the north.

Lu Xu listened with his ears pricked up while drinking tea, and really listened to a few big battles, true and false, like a storyteller, for a while it was a foreign ferocious god, one head, two mouths, three eyes and four hands, burning and looting in Shuozhou, and for a while it was the Daqi soldiers who were brave and invincible, chasing the foreign people for three thousand miles, killing the opponent's hometown and kicking the enemy's ancestral temple.

But what surprised Lu Xu the most was a shop specializing in mutton that he visited in the afternoon.

The shop blatantly hung a big signboard that read Prairie Sheep Fresh.

Lu Xu was shocked and stunned, they were playing with foreigners with sticks, and they could even get other people's sheep!

The boss claimed to have bought it from the front line, and the foreign mutton tasted good and delicious, which was different from their local goats. Lu Xu hadn't eaten mutton for half a year, regardless of whether he bought it from a foreigner or grew it in the mountains, let's try a bowl of mutton first.

Not a big bowl of stewed mutton, three hundred Wen, Lu Xu can eat three or four bowls alone.

He ordered a bowl of mutton, a plate of mutton chops, the mutton chops are roasted with fruit wood, only sprinkled with coarse salt, there is no smell, only the mutton is fragrant, and it is very enjoyable to eat. Lu Xu threw the money very heroically, drinking the home-brewed muddy wine given by the boss, and felt extremely refreshing.

When Yan Junqi finishes the exam, he must bring Yan Junqi here to try it.

It's a pity that their group of little radish heads can't taste it.

He touched his mouth and asked the boss, "If I want to buy live sheep, do you have a way?" ”

The boss smiled, and while roasting him, he sighed helplessly: "It's your luck today, the soldiers who returned to the city yesterday just got two sheep, otherwise, I don't know when it will be opened." ”

Lu Xu: "You really bought it from outside the customs?" ”

Boss: "Can this still deceive people?" I've been running this shop for more than 20 years. ”

Lu Xuzhi is a pity.

If he can buy sheep, it is the season to stick autumn fat and eat hot pot, how long has he not eaten hot pot.

Lu Xu counted the days and asked, "Will you open the day after tomorrow?" ”

The boss understood as soon as he heard it, and asked him: "Does the little brother have an exam at home?" ”

Lu Xu nodded proudly, "Exactly." ”

Boss: "Don't worry, there is still a sheep to kill tomorrow." ”

Lu Xu: "Can't you sell it out in a day?" ”

Boss: "I can't sell it out, and now the meat is expensive, so it's good to sell one in two or three days." ”

Lu Xu listened and asked very curiously, "Isn't it illegal for us to fight with foreign tribes and buy sheep from them?" ”

Boss Zhile: "Naturally, it's illegal." ”

Lu Xu: "Huh? ”

Boss: "Of course it's illegal to buy from them, but we won the battle, and it is indispensable to grab some cattle and sheep back. ”

Lu Xu understood, and now he has to buy it from the barracks!

Boss: "We've got mutton expensive here, but when we get to the front, it's cheap." However, at present, the army has begun to make winter clothes and tents, and sheepskin and cowhide must be used everywhere, and live sheep are not easy to buy. ”

Lu Xu nodded, and said in his heart, if he can buy it, he also wants to buy some sheepskin, make a vest and boots in winter, how warm!

He inquired with the boss and learned that all the sheepskins in the store were sold to leather merchants, and Lu Xu finished eating the roast mutton and wandered around to see the winter clothes.

Chapter 67: Come by Yourself

Autumn is the season to make winter clothes, but at this time the cotton has not yet been confiscated, and the fur has just begun to be stocked, so there are not many options.

Lu Xu looked at it, most of them are still in stock, fox skin, mink fur is expensive goods Lu Xu can't afford, the fur that civilians can buy, the most common is nothing more than sheepskin and rabbit skin, the whole sheepskin is rarer, rabbit skin Lu Xu is too expensive.

They Guanyang is also next to the mountain, and there are people hunting in nearby villages, and the processed rabbit skins are one-fifth to one-quarter cheaper than the state capital, so he doesn't buy them.

It's all here, Lu Xu wandered around the leather market, and really saw leather boots and shoes, as well as leather clothes that were very avant-garde no matter how you looked.

These things are luxuries, and he can't afford to consume them, so he can only wander around and look around.

Lu Xu went to the cloth shop, habitually went in to look at the price and ask the price, the same quality of cloth sold in the state is also more expensive than Guanyang, but the craftsmanship of dyeing cloth seems to be different, and the color is richer than that of Guanyang.

How can you travel without buying souvenirs, Lu Xu picked up the bright colors that Guanyang had never seen, and bought enough cloth for the female relatives in the family to make two clothes.

As for the boys, isn't the stain-resistant blue and grey cloth practical? Let's wear it improvised!

While Lu Xu was eating, eating, buying, buying, buy

The boat of their Guanyang Alliance passes by Lujia Village every day, Tan Shishi will still cast and collect nets with the fishing boat in the morning and evening, Lu Wen watched the boats come and go, and he had nothing to do, so he had the intention of going out to the county to sell fritters.

He ran home and pouted his mother to help him fry fritters. Many days passed, and his father and mother gradually came out of the shadow of his brother's departure, and his father would still hang his head alone from time to time, annoyed that he could not go for his brother. Neither of the husband and wife felt uncomfortable, there was nowhere to vent, and all their grievances were helpless to vent to the fields, and they worked harder than usual.

Lu Wen looked at it, and always felt that it would not be possible to go on like this, and when his father and mother were not properly tired and sick during the autumn harvest, he still hurried to save money and buy cattle.

He pestered his mother to fry fried fritters, but the third aunt was not at ease with him.

"You're going to sell? How old are you? ”

"I'll go to the place where my eldest brother usually sets up a stall, and I know all his friends and will help me."

The third aunt was not at ease, "I kidnapped you with Huazi, where are I and your father looking for you?" ”

Lu Wen: "There are officers and soldiers patrolling every day on Guanyang Street, how can there be any flowers?" I got on the boat from the river in our village, and someone accompanied me all the way off the boat, and I came back after the sale, and I didn't walk around. ”

Seeing that his mother was a little shaken, Lu Wen made persistent efforts, "As soon as the eldest brother goes to the state capital for ten days, he can't spend money on any day, so I will sell fritters and make a little money." ”

The third aunt asked, "Can you settle the account?" ”

Lu Wen: "Now the fritters are ten cents a piece, it's a big deal to sell one and count the money, what are the countless things." ”

The third aunt hesitated, and she didn't mean to let go.

Lu Wen knew that his mother didn't worry about him taking so much money for a child, there was no way, who let him usually run around the village like a mud monkey, and he had to go to the town to buy candy for a few pennies, and his past image was too bad, and it was difficult to save it for a while.

Lu Wendao: "I'll be with Lu Zhou, and then ask the third brother if he is going." ”

Lu Xuan just wanted to repair the plow, but Lu Wen blew the blacksmith in the county to the sky, and really persuaded Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan was fourteen, no shorter than Lu Xu and Lu Hui, and he looked like a young man standing there.

The eldest son of the three families, Lu Xu used to be lonely and strong, pouting all day long and blackening his face, unwilling to play with his younger brothers and sisters, not a good big brother, Lu Hui is a good brother, but his temper is too good, he can't control his younger brothers and sisters, but the third Lu Xuan, who is tortured by the cold dew of his twin sisters, his father and mother have no parental frames, and dealing with children's conflicts has always been with mud, forcing him to rely on himself to establish the authority of being an elder brother since he was a child, and he can make up his own mind without saying anything, which can shock the younger brothers and sisters below.

Lu Wen is not afraid of Lu Xu, not afraid of Lu Hui, but when the adult is not there, he is afraid of Lu Xuan.

With Lu Xuan, who is the most reassuring to adults, as a companion, the third aunt really agreed.

said that the third aunt was moved, Lu Wen took Lu Zhou to the vegetable field to cut leeks, and persuaded Xiao Xia to help him make leek boxes.

He and Lu Zhou can also wrap it, but their cooking skills are not as good as Xiao Xia's, and they are unevenly rolled out from the size of the dough, unlike Xiao Xia, the leeks box wrapped in the dough, dough, and wrapped are uniform in size, all like carved out of a mold.

Xiao Xia has a soft temper, and always lets her younger brother, since Lu Wen bought her a flower, she is even more happy and uneasy, at this time Lu Wen asked her for help, Xiao Xia is unwilling, get up with her mother in the middle of the night, and make noodles and wrap leek boxes, and when Lu Wen sleeps, their mother and daughter have already packed the fritters, leek boxes and sugar cakes.

Xiao Xia sewed a cloth pocket for Lu Wen, and the rope could be tied to his waist to make it easier for him to carry money.

Lu Wen tied up the cloth pocket and patted it, and looked up to see the velvet flower pinned to Xiao Xia's head.

The morning sun shone on the velvet flowers, and the velvet shone with wisps of fine light, shining, and Lu Wen felt that the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law in the whole village were no more beautiful than his sister.

Lu Wendao: "When I earn money, I will buy you something better." ”

Xiao Xia smiled shyly, "This is very beautiful, you make money and save it well, don't spend it indiscriminately." ”

Lu Wen responded, first went to call Lu Xuan, and then called Lu Zhou, and the three brothers waited for the boat by the river together.

Seeing the flag of green mountains and blue water on a black background, Lu Wen waved and shouted loudly, it was not Tan Shi who rowed the boat, but he also knew Lu Wen, and when he saw them on the shore, let the three of them go up.

Today they brought light things, Lu Wen didn't push the cart, and Lu Zhou carried a basket on his back, and Lu Xuan got on the boat with the plow to be repaired.

There were many of them, and they were embarrassed to take the boat for nothing, so Lu Xuan went over to help row. When he arrived in Guanyang County, Lu Yong really occupied the old place to sell tofu, everyone knew that Lu Xu was not there these days, he didn't occupy a place for Lu Xu, let alone a table for selling cold dishes. Thanks to Lu Wen and Lu Zhou, there are only two baskets, and Lu Yong's own stall is enough for them.

Lu Wen followed Lu Xu to set up a stall in the morning market, many people recognized him, and when they saw that he was here today, some people asked him if he would cook cold dishes.

Of course Lu Wen wanted to sell, and he tried to do it with Lu Zhou. But the two of them had a lot of dishes and seasonings at home, and they couldn't make the taste of Lu Xu's cooking.

Usually, he didn't think it was difficult to make cold dishes, it was nothing more than cutting the vegetables and cutting them, and putting two spoonfuls of the seasonings one by one, but when he made it, it was obviously the same thing, the same steps, and he couldn't make the taste of Lu Xu's cooking.

When Lu Xu's remaining chili oil disaster was over, Lu Wen also gave up.

It wasn't until he hit the south wall himself that he knew that he used to secretly slander his eldest brother for this unskilled job that anyone could do, but it wasn't that easy.

As for the stir-fry that someone else asked......

Lu Wen was even more speechless.

How did he know that Lu Xu grew up eating and drinking in the kitchen, and grew up with his ears and eyes, although Lu Xu was pampered and didn't have to cook by himself, but before he lived in high school, he watched his parents cook with dishes every day, which is the tongue that their two generations of chefs are used to, and it is difficult for ordinary people to whip up.

Take the leek box, Lu Wen always felt that the filling of Xiaoxia was not as delicious as Lu Xu's, and he didn't know where there was a very subtle difference. Fortunately, the fresh leeks are full of eggs, just sprinkle with salt, salty and light, and it is delicious to cook.

Others asked about cold dishes and stir-fried vegetables, and Lu Wen all sold what he had in his basket-

Let's eat fritters, eat leek boxes, eat sugar cakes, salty and sweet, fried fragrant, how delicious!

It was sold out in the morning, and Tan Shishi also came over.

Lu Xu is not here, and many questions that he usually asks Lu Xu come to him, and he has been busy in the past two days. Especially for settling accounts, Tan Shishi's fingers and toes are not enough, and he can't learn abacus for a while, so he has no choice but to fold a lot of branches, the thick ones are ten, and the thin ones are one, and he is dizzy every day.

Hearing that Lu Wen was leading Lu Zhou to come, Tan Shishi always wanted to do his best as a landlord, threw down a bunch of incalculable branches to Liang Shanbao, and ran to the morning market with a smoke.

He knew Lu Zhou and Lu Xuan, especially Lu Xuan, he sometimes went to Lujia Village to deliver goods, and Lu Xuan helped carry the things in the grocery store.

He doesn't know Lu Zhou very well, this kid is quiet, honest and honest at first glance, and he doesn't have as many ghost eyes as Lu Wen. Tan Shishi likes this kind of good child very much, and led Lu Zhou to the mountain goods shop to get fruits to eat.

"The sweet pears that my brother-in-law carried off are thin and sweet, but they are delicious, I'll bring you a few to taste."

Of course Lu Zhou didn't want to, but he was such a small man, he was picked up by Tan Shishi, and he couldn't struggle.

Left and right they have to wait for Lu Xuan to go to the blacksmith shop to repair the plow, waiting everywhere, Lu Wen also likes to go to the mountain goods shop, he is small and can sell well, and he can always rub some fresh fruits to eat.

Sure enough, as soon as they entered, they saw that the lady of the shop gave them a pear.

If there are bumps, insect eyes, or unsightly fruits, they will pick them out and sell them cheaply.

The eldest lady is kind, and Lu Xu always introduces people to the shop, and what she gives to Lu Zhou and Lu Wen is only a little bump, and she can't see any good fruits.

Lu Zhou knew that the fruit was expensive, so he didn't dare to eat the pear, at this time Tan Shi and Lu Xuan went to the blacksmith shop, Lu Wen was cheeky and gnawed happily, he didn't eat it, and he didn't eat it.
