002. Wild chrysanthemum

The walls are mottled and there are large holes, and the cracked lines on the walls are like wrinkles on the faces of old people.

The papyrus on the windows was so dark that it was hard to see the original color, and the ground was so potholed, that none of the houses where the refugees lived were so broken.

Xiao Yeqing burst into tears in his heart, he was a little unlucky, the original owner was the wife of the richest young master, wearing gold and silver, living a luxurious and rich life, and then look at himself, he was poorer than a poor peasant......

It's all the same person, why is there such a big gap?

Although the house is broken, there are many people living in it, Lu Jinzhang's grandparents, father, and mother, and a younger brother and sister, in addition, there are people in the second room, a total of more than a dozen people, and the people of the Lu family are here.

They moved in yesterday and now there is nothing in the house and they are indescribably poor.

Everyone knew about Xiao Yeqing's escape, but they didn't blame her, after all, falling from heaven to hell is not acceptable to ordinary people.

Xiao Yeqing retracted his gaze and walked out.

Lu Youyou saw Xiao Yeqing walking out, and hurriedly chased him out: "Sister-in-law, where are you going?" ”

Xiao Yeqing looked down at Lu Youyou, seven or eight years old, white and cute, a very beautiful and cheerful little girl: "I'll go out for a walk." ”

Lu Youyou took Xiao Yeqing's hand: "Sister-in-law, I'll go with you." ”

It was difficult for Xiao Yeqing to refuse such a cute child: "Let's go." ”

The two went to the village together.

Their dilapidated house was at the end of the village, and it took a while to enter the village.

There are many green brick houses in the village, and they are not poor, on the contrary, many people are wealthy.

The villagers are also dressed more decently, and it can be seen that this village is really wealthy.

Xiao Yeqing's appearance attracted the ideas of many people in the village, after all, such a beautiful and expensive girl is rare, but because she is not familiar, no one comes to talk to her.

Xiao Yeqing was anxious to find food, and he didn't have the energy to care about the people in the village, so he pulled Lu Youyou around the village.

This time, she didn't find any food, but she found a small business opportunity - there are many wild chrysanthemums growing on the side of the road, wild chrysanthemums can be used in medicine, pick them and sell them, and they should be able to sell them for some money.

Xiao Yeqing patted the little girl's shoulder: "Yoyo, you go find a basket, let's pick wild chrysanthemums." ”

Lu Youyou didn't understand: "Why are you picking wild chrysanthemums, and you can't eat them?" ”

Xiao Yeqing didn't explain much: "Be obedient, go get it." ”

Seeing Xiao Yeqing's insistence, Lu Youyou ran back, and only after a while did he come with a broken basket: "Sister-in-law, you can put it in here." ”

Xiao Yeqing had already picked a handful, and when he heard this, he put the wild chrysanthemums in his hand into the basket, and took the basket over again, and then continued to pick wild chrysanthemums.

Lu Youyou saw that Xiao Yeqing was picking so seriously, so he also picked it together.

There are a lot of wild chrysanthemums, one by one, one by one, and it is a very large one, standing there, one bush can be picked for a long time.

Xiao Yeqing and Lu Youyou filled the baskets: "Youyou, you go home, I'll go to the county seat." ”

Lu Youyou looked at Xiao Yeqing: "Sister-in-law, then you come back quickly." ”

Xiao Yeqing nodded and smiled at Lu Youyou: "I'll be back soon." After saying that, he went to the county seat.

You can ask people on the road during the day, and you shouldn't get lost.

As soon as she left, Lu Youyou ran home crying: "Sister-in-law is gone, sister-in-law is gone, father, eldest brother, second brother ......"

She thought that Xiao Yeqing had left, and she was very reluctant.

Lu Youyou's crying attracted the Lu family to the courtyard.

Lu Jinzhang's face was wooden, and his handsome face was expressionless: Xiao Yeqing swore that he would not leave just now, and left in a blink of an eye, do you want to play him like this before leaving?

Mother Lu hugged Lu Youyou, her eyes were red: "Don't cry Youyou, we're not rich now, we can't delay her future, let her go." ”

Lu Youyou cried very sadly: "I don't want my sister-in-law to leave, woo, mother, I don't want my sister-in-law to leave......"

Lu's mother didn't know how to comfort Lu Youyou, so she simply cried together.

In the whole courtyard, the atmosphere was oppressive.

……

Xiao Yeqing carried a basket of chrysanthemums to the county seat, walked all the way, asked all the way, and finally saw the city gate.

The city gate is written with the words "Phoenix County", the city gate is a little old, not big enough, far from the magnificent level, but the quaint atmosphere makes people feel like they are standing in the long river of time.

Xiao Yeqing lined up and entered Fenghuang County and asked passers-by to find a pharmacy.

At this time, she suddenly reacted, if the wild chrysanthemums are valuable, why is there no one in the village to pick them, probably, maybe this wild chrysanthemum can't be sold for money, but if they are all picked, let's try our luck.

Walking through the bustling streets, Xiao Yeqing came to a pharmacy: "Little brother, do you collect wild chrysanthemums?" Her hands clenched, a little nervous.

The guy looked at the wild chrysanthemums in the basket: "If you want to collect it, five cents a catty, you can come and weigh it." ”

Xiao Yeqing was overjoyed, and hurriedly took it and said, "Little brother, since wild chrysanthemums can be sold for money, why is no one picking them in the village?" ”

The man replied while weighing the wild chrysanthemums: "It's the autumn harvest season, and everyone is busy harvesting rice, so how can we have time to pick wild chrysanthemums." ”

So it was, Xiao Yeqing was happy for a while, and when he went back, he gathered everyone to pick wild chrysanthemums, and only with money could he change the predicament: "Thank you, little brother." ”

"It's fine." The guy said again, "Your wild chrysanthemum has two catties, two catties and ten cents." ”

"Thank you, thank you." Xiao Yeqing was happy, and he had money to buy food.

The guy took the ten copper plates to Xiao Yeqing: "There are still wild chrysanthemums in the shop, you can pick more." ”

"Thanks, I see." Xiao Yeqing left happily.

With ten copper plates in hand, Xiao Yeqing went to the steamed bun shop: "How much is a steamed bun?" ”

The guy replied, "One penny." ”

"Wrap me ten." Xiao Yeqing took ten copper plates to the guy, there are more than a dozen people in the family, ten steamed buns are not enough, but one and a half can still be satisfied, and after picking wild chrysanthemums for a while, you can come back to exchange for money, and you can exchange for food if you have money.

There are no pots and pans at home, otherwise you can buy rice noodles and go back to cook, and now you can only buy steamed buns.

After changing the steamed buns, Xiao Yeqing hurried home.

……

Seeing Xiao Yeqing come back, the Lu family was surprised: No, didn't you leave?

Xiao Yeqing felt that everyone's eyes were very strange: "What are you looking at me like this?" ”

Lu Mu was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "No, it's okay." ”

Lu Youyou ran over and hugged Xiao Yeqing happily: "Sister-in-law, it's great that you didn't leave, sister-in-law, don't leave in the future, okay?" ”

"I didn't go." Xiao Yeqing touched Lu Youyou's head, "Come, I exchanged chrysanthemums for some money and bought some steamed buns, the steamed buns are not enough, the elders eat one, and the juniors eat half, and they will be fine." ”

Saying that, Xiao Yeqing distributed the steamed buns to everyone.
