Arrangements before departure (3)

"You are a filial child, but you must pay attention to safety when you go to the capital alone. Nothing is more important than your life. If your life is gone, there will be nothing." Foreman Xie said after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words.

"I see."

"Girl Xiao, what are you and Foreman Xie talking about?" After Mr. Fan repaired his shoes and entered the house, he saw Lu Xiaoxiao and Foreman Xie sitting on the kang talking about something, so he asked them.

"I'm telling Xiao Yatou to pay attention to safety when she goes to Beijing."

"Xiao Yatou, why are you going to the capital city? It's not time to visit your parents' graves yet, right?"

"I want to visit my parents' graves in advance. It's not convenient to go out in the snow."

"You'd better be considerate and remember to go early and come back early."

"good."

"It's getting late, you should go home quickly."

"I have to go back later because I still have something I haven't told the masters."

"What's up?"

"I bought a batch of grain and put it at home before I went to Beijing. This is the key to my house. If the masters run out of grain, they can go directly to my house to get it. But you'd better go at night. I'm afraid you will be arrested if you go to my house during the day. Someone discovered it." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, he took out a key from his pocket and put it on the table.

Mr. Fan nodded after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, and then he put away the keys that Lu Xiaoxiao put on the table.

When Lu Xiaoxiao saw Mr. Fan put away the keys, she said, "I brought some food here today, and I'm going to move into the house now."

"I'll go with you." When Foreman Xie heard that Lu Xiaoxiao was going to move food, he immediately stood up and said to Lu Xiaoxiao.

"No, there's not much food, I can do it by myself." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she ran out of the house.

A few minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao entered the house carrying more than 20 kilograms of corn crumbs. Then she said to Mr. Fan: "Master, for the sake of safety, I will bring you some food. After you finish eating, you can come to my house." Take it, I left a lot of food for you."

"We know, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, masters, hurry up and collect the food. I'll go home first." Lu Xiaoxiao waved to Mr. Fan and the others and walked out of the house.

After Lu Xiaoxiao left, Mr. Fan collected the food that Lu Xiaoxiao had sent, and then he lay down on the kang with a deep sigh.

Foreman Xie also lay on the kang when Mr. Fan lay down on the kang. Then he reached out and patted Mr. Fan on the shoulder and said, "Be more open-minded."

"I know, I just feel uncomfortable at the moment."

"Go to sleep. Tomorrow is the last day of the autumn harvest. The task is probably very heavy."

"good."

After Lu Xiaoxiao returned home, she rummaged through the space for a long time but could not find a pair of handmade cloth shoes, so she planned to go to the county town tomorrow. No matter what, she had to buy shoes for the masters before leaving.

The next morning, Lu Xiaoxiao came to the village entrance early. As soon as she arrived at the village entrance, she saw Liu Jianguo driving an ox cart towards the village entrance, so she walked directly towards the ox cart.

"Xiaoxiao, are you going to the county seat today?" Liu Ermei asked Lu Xiaoxiao immediately when she saw her.

"Yes, are you going to the county seat too?"

"Well, I'm going to buy salt and matches. I've run out of salt and matches at home."

Lu Xiaoxiao nodded after hearing Liu Ermei's words, and then pulled Liu Ermei into the bullock cart.

"Uncle Liu, is today the last day of the autumn harvest?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Jianguo after sitting on the bullock cart.
