"Selling this cart of vegetables should be enough for Nazi to go to school."
The woman in her thirties was delivering vegetables to the wooden cart and said to the man in front of her.
"It should be enough. It's been so cold this winter. Many people's vegetables have been damaged by freezing, and I don't know how many people are going to starve to death."
The thin, small man, who was over 1.6 meters tall, used the straw rope that had been wound countless times to tie up the newly pulled vegetables.
When he saw his son running out of the house, his expression suddenly changed, and he yelled: "Go back home quickly, it's going to be freezing, and I'll beat you to death."
The little boy was so frightened that he immediately ran home.
"You are so cruel to Baozi every day. Be careful that Baozi will treat you like this when you get old." The woman looked at her son's little back and smiled.
"If you don't care about the child, he will never be well in his life. I just hope that he can understand something and not suffer as much as us in the future." The man sighed.
The two of them finally tied up everything in a flat car.
The man, who was in his early thirties, shouted into the room again: "His father, we are going to sell vegetables now. Watch out for Baozi and don't let him run away."
Two people dragged the flat car out from the entrance to the vegetable garden. The road was covered with snow, and it was extremely hard and slippery because of the freezing cold.
The couple obviously exerted their strength and bent over to pull the car out. They saw the two young people who came to their village yesterday. ,
Shen Jie also looked at the flat car and asked, "Why do you still go to the street to sell vegetables in such a cold weather?"
These two honest old farmers thought at first that the young master from a wealthy family was not talking to them, but that the woman was obviously looking at them when she saw Shen Jie. The man pulling the cart in front said, "Dad, I'm talking to you."
As he got closer, Shen Jie could still smell the smell of mud on the dishes that had just been unearthed.
Breathe it into your nose, and you will feel a refreshing feeling that enters your lungs.
"Sell these vegetables to me. Do you think one tael of silver is enough?" Shen Jie said.
Even Li Ze didn't expect this to happen, so he asked the person again, "Do you really want to buy so many vegetables?"
"Of course I bought it. You bring this cart of vegetables to my house. The second household in front will get the money for you." Shen Jie turned around and pointed to him, but he still managed to move him. .sore.painful place.
"I'll send it to you right now." Li Ze responded.
When Shen Jie passed by the flat cart, he put the small ingot of silver in the corner of the flat cart and walked straight over.
He glanced at his grass house,
The little boy was playing in the house with round beads made of rotten mud.
An old man with a cane was sitting in the back hall near the door.
The sun happened to shine on the old man's body, and his cloudy eyes were half-squinted, but there was no movement.
There was also the sound of pigs squealing "hum. hum. hum. chi" from the west side of the front room.
Jiuyuan also heard this voice: "This family also keeps pigs at home, and they all have a pig smell. Do you smell it?"
"Probably because the pig is afraid of freezing to death." Shen Jie said.
"That can't be like this, it's so dirty!"
She couldn't bear the smell, so she walked to the first house in the east end holding in her breath.
"Don't you think about it, pigs may be someone's main source of income. If the pigs freeze to death, the whole family may starve to death."
he said.
"Hey (ei twice), did you buy other people's food because you were out of kindness?" Jiuyuan looked at his face that gradually recovered, and his mood calmed down a lot.
His eyes looked towards the vegetable garden of this first family.
"Li Jiezi, when you are doing corvee work in the next two days, you must remember to watch more, do more, and talk less. When you encounter something, you must go with the people in the village. I will go and talk to Ma Jie's family right away. You must not talk to anyone. Running around." The middle-aged man in his forties said.
"I know, you've said it so many times." This handsome young man who had just turned seventeen a few days ago had obviously heard too much and looked impatient. .
"You must listen carefully to what your father says. I'm telling you how many people died in corvee service. The son of Geng Hongyao's family ran away to the mountains to become a bandit. I heard that his head was beaten. It’s been chopped, you must be careful outside."
The middle-aged woman sitting on the short bench with a small piece missing said,
"It's all my fault. We should find a wife for Li Jiezi as soon as possible. If something happens outside, what will our family do?"
When the family talks about this in the past few days, they obviously look bad.
"Little brother, you are the only man in our family who can protect our family from now on. You have to listen carefully to our words. We don't have much rice now. When the taxes are paid next spring, there won't be much left. Everything from now on will depend on you."
The little woman who was standing by the pot washing the pot also turned around and said.
