Mrs. Xu kept her head slightly lowered, listening to Zhao Dashan talk about the order.
The two of them walked out as they talked.
In the eyes of everyone in Xujiazhuang, this scene seemed to be Zhao Zhenting reporting something to Mrs. Xu.
Everyone could not hear what was said, but they could see Zhao Zhenting tilting his head and looking at Mrs. Xu. He had not been idle since he entered the door, and he had not even glanced at anyone else.
Well, finally looking at someone else.
Zhao Zhenting suddenly stopped and looked back.
Everyone also stopped and followed the direction of the fingers and saw Zhao Zhenting smiling and waving to Tian Xin'er, and then the three of them spoke at the front.
In short, it looked very busy at first glance, and no one dared to come forward and disturb the three people talking about business.
The fourth uncle and his family had no choice but to ask Xu Youliang, the most talkative and simple among the "three you", "Do you have to hold all these things?"
Even though I only stayed here for one night and one morning, in addition to the pots and pans for rice, there were also a lot of miscellaneous items.
The fourth uncle's wife lived a careful life, and even took away pieces of bloody cotton and rags. She was afraid that Mrs. Xu's family would be like this too, so she had to ask so that she wouldn't fall behind.
And these two patients lying sideways were piled together on the same car? Or store them separately. Separately, if the car overturns, just flip over one. There are also many cars, so I don't have this problem. It would be nice to have a seat.
Xu Laoer quickly thanked him and said: "Why do you want to come here with bloody cotton? I don't want those. I have really troubled my grandparents, aunts and uncles these past two days. You have to wash and clean them afterward. Let's go." "
The "Three You" of the Xu family pulled the cow's head tightly and were instructing everyone to gently lift the two patients and put them into the carriage. The fifth aunt ran over holding a quilt made of seven or eight colors of cloth.
"I'll give you a breast pad, otherwise the road will be bumpy."
Xu Youyin stretched out his hand to help Guan Erbald get into the car, while looking back and smiling: "No, fifth aunt, before we came out, my second sister-in-law and the others had already laid the ground properly at home, and it is already soft. You are always getting tired." Take it back."
The uncle's family also advised the fifth aunt: "Take it back quickly. If there is a shortage of bedding, we will take it. Can you keep an eye on it? But they brought it, and the car is warm. There is horse dung outside the wooden carriage, it is true. different."
I felt it when I got into the car and stuffed the old lady.
With these words, the two bullock carts from the Xu family finally started today.
Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin kept talking to Zhao Dashan.
When the reaction came, the car was already gone.
The "Three You" of the Xu family had to look ahead when they were driving. Besides, there were carriages blocking them, so they didn't look back and waved to everyone in Xujiazhuang.
But there was still a large group of people standing at the door of my uncle's house, watching.
From midnight last night until I left today, I have been busy with work. Looking at the car shadow getting further and further away, my uncle and his family thought to themselves:
Leaving now? There was a lot of noise just now, people coming here to visit, here and there to visit, but as the car left, it suddenly became quiet.
The scenes of this night and morning were enough for them to recall for several days.
Thinking back on it, the aunt suddenly cursed her daughter-in-law in a low voice, saying she disliked her for not taking good care of the child.
Because no matter what other people bring out, the children will be all speechless and chattering every time they talk, which is embarrassing.
So Tian Xin only took a sip of the candy water handed over by the scholar, and the rest was given to her children. Then everything turned upside down, with several children fighting over each other and beating each other to tears. It happened that the guests had left. After a while, I went into the house and beat each of them with a broomstick.
The auntie spat towards the west again, a mouthful of Mrs. Yu from the village. When there were many guests in her house, the old woman got into the house and pretended to watch the fun and the scholar. Then she stole two pieces of the so-called Bazhen cake and stuffed it into the waistband of her trousers.
Taking advantage of the crowd, he went to her house and stole something. When she returned home, he would come to scold her.
The uncle was summing up, and the uncle felt a little regretful, thinking: It seems that it is better not to entertain.
Because the Erdaohe Xu family is now different from our ordinary farmers. Why do we even make pancakes with flour and bran to serve on the table? Why don't we have to bake pure white flour early in the morning. You said that half of the white flour has been sprinkled on it, and you still need to make it pure white?
Alas, no human being can do it.
Not only did he not go out of his way to be generous, but he also let a bunch of his own children eat a lot of other people's good food. Today was really a meat-free meal, and even he drank mutton soup.
Uncle Xu's clan was supported by his eldest son's arm, and he was looking at the car shadow and thinking:
After being busy for most of the night, he got up early today. To be honest, he didn't sleep well and was a little confused.
His son said: "Dad, our family has been good people for so many years, but at the end of the day, you insisted on breaking up the relationship last night. What benefit can you get when they leave with a pat on the back? You have also offended others. Wait until the New Year to give me The ancestors kowtow, do you also want to step forward and let Erdaohe and Namian stand apart?"
The clan uncle replied: "We don't have any other intentions. To be fair, whoever we let is a relative. Besides, if you offend me, just offend me. Since I don't bother the two masters in such a matter, of course I have to take charge of it."
The fifth aunt was holding the quilt and took the lead in saying to everyone:
"The car is almost gone, so I'll go back first. Oh my god, my old sister brought me a handful of frozen fruits. Who would have thought that I didn't eat any of the fruits, and I was so busy. Again Making millet porridge is another gang fight."
After hearing this, Shuanzi's wife put her hands on warm sleeves and fell silent.
Then why is she doing this? He scolded and cursed at every turn. She doubted Erdaohe's side and didn't even know her name.
And just when everyone was about to leave and go back to their homes, a bullock cart in the distance suddenly turned around.
Shuanzi's wife pointed in the distance: "Ah, what did you leave behind?"
Favored.
The important person who returned was Mrs. Xu.
Seeing these people before they even entered the house, Mrs. Xu jumped out of the car and gestured with a smile and said:
"It's just right, I don't have to look for it from house to house.
I have a letter here that I just got from Zhenting.
From now on, fishing can be done on the unowned river, and the government has to collect tens of thousands of catties of fish from the people.
The General's Office gave it to us people to have a good New Year.
Just tell me how good this general is, do you understand? "
Mrs. Xu was so anxious, but none of them responded at all.
She advised herself to be more patient. It is precisely because everyone is so simple that they are very honest:
"That is to say, if you don't pay the fishing and salt tax for a copper coin, you can just go to the ownerless river and eat some hard-caught fish, which are not even small fish cubs, and you can take them to the government office and exchange them for copper coins.
Isn’t this better than paying the fish and salt tax every month? The General's Mansion simply sends money to you.
What if you get lucky and catch the expensive species, right? So hurry up, clan uncle, fourth uncle and fourth uncle, fifth aunt, and who are you, Shuanzi’s wife, right?
Quickly, before the news was released, the whole family tried to get some glacier fishing nets. Let Li Zheng clear the way for you again. By the way, where is Xu Lizheng?
Don't wait for two days. Li Zheng and others will know everything after the meeting. By then, you won't be able to grab Wuzhujiang River even if you want to. Now, if the days are different, how many fish can be caught quickly? "
This time everyone finally reacted.
Someone complained to Mrs. Xu, saying that Xu Lizheng was the worst person. When Bai Xiucai and Zhao Zhenting left, he left quickly without any nostalgia. It's not like they were watching the shadow of a car.
It was the fifth aunt who said this.
Old Mrs. Xu thought to herself: If he's not here, there's nothing he can do: "If you go to clear the way and draw the message, tell me that the town hall will ask him to go to the government office for a meeting early the day after tomorrow."
And more people are eager to ask: "Wait a minute, let's not talk about it. Does it mean that you can go to the jail to exchange money for fish?"
"Yes, don't sell it to second-rate dealers."
There will be designated second-level dealers to collect it from ordinary people, and then sell it to the government office to earn the difference.
Mrs. Xu took her place. Anyway, when she heard the news just now, this thought immediately flashed through her mind.
It’s just that she was too busy and wanted to make a profit by running to various unowned rivers in the freezing cold and snow to ask one by one: “Fellow, do you sell fish?”
The main focus of Erdao Dealer is the common people's unwillingness to deal with the Yamenmen.
So important things must be said three times. Mrs. Xu emphasized again:
"Come on, why don't you family dare to go to the government office to sell fish?
If you sell it directly to the government, you can earn one or two more cents. The fish collected by the government for more than five kilograms are four cents per catty. Do you remember the number? If there is an official in the government office who dares to get in your way, just tell me.
In short, the whole family and a few brothers hurried out. If there was difficulty in not opening a way to guide us, we would follow the part of the Erdao River where we have the main stream to find the river surface.
The whole family worked hard a year ago, and you knew the news two or three days in advance, so you still managed to earn a few taels! "
Only then did the four families become excited.
The fifth aunt grabbed Old Mrs. Xu's hand and said, "My dear daughter-in-law, please keep your voice down so that no one can hear you."
Shuanzi's wife looked back at her husband a little proudly, as if asking with her eyes: Do you still dare to say that I am nosy? Without me, the daylily would be cold by the time you know the news about fishing.
So people, you have to be kind.
And this is not the only way to give back. Mrs. Xu also opened the car curtain, revealing the old woman's head wearing a cotton hat: "Don't you have something to say to them? If you leave without saying anything, it will cause trouble."
The old lady looked at Old Madam Xu with a smile and thought:
What I want to say is still authorized by you.
But he specifically asked her to say, what does this mean? It means that the daughter-in-law wants to make her blush.
The old lady didn't dare to move her arms, so she could only stretch out her wrist to wave to the fifth aunt and the others, and slowly breathed and said: "It's time to break ground after the Chinese New Year. If you guys are free, go and help there." live."
The old lady looked at everyone, she still had her own little thoughts at this time.
She thought that she needed to say something ugly before speaking, and even though her ribs ached, she emphasized: "I can't say, how much we can earn, it's almost the same as those hired outside. But after all, we can have multiple places to go. When we get there, wash up, We are all relatives, and we are designated to be better than others.”
The designation there was better than elsewhere, and it was not uncommon for people to get beaten and scolded while looking for odd jobs outside, and ate dry food mixed with coal and ballast.
But even if it is such a bad job, in the eyes of city people, March is called the grass growing and the orioles are flying, describing how beautiful it is. In the eyes of villagers, it is called the season of slack. If there are odd jobs outside, they will rush to do it.
So if you can go to the Xu family in Erdaohe to work, no matter what you are asked to do, the elderly at home can really rest assured that at least they will not eat dry food adulterated with dirty things.
The fifth aunt stepped forward and held the old lady's hand: "Sister, don't say it. Your ribs hurt and you are still thinking about us. I accept your favor. Don't worry, please be civilized. I will let the few in the family I'm going to pounce on you. Really, I thank you for not forgetting to recruit your nephews. During the Chinese New Year, I'll let them kowtow to you."
And the fifth aunt's words touched everyone's heart.
Start fishing now. After fishing for a while, go to Erdao River to work. That's it. You will have a way to make money for several months in the future.
This was really unexpected. We relied on our warm-heartedness to achieve nothing in the first place, and this brought us benefits again and again.
Mrs. Xu got into the car and said to the old lady before lowering the curtain: "You are satisfied this time. Then you can say hello to everyone and tell us that we are really leaving this time."
The old lady said hello, she smiled and scratched her palms twice.
This action made Xu Youyin, who was driving the car, laugh out loud.
The vehicle left, leaving everyone in Xujiazhuang staring at the shadow of the vehicle for a long time, unwilling to leave.
Xu Lizheng also returned again, looked at everyone in confusion and asked: "I heard that I'm back again, what's going on?"
At the same time, the "three members" of the Xu family were driving two oxcarts parallel to each other. Mrs. Xu was saying to Xu Tianxin in the other car: "The God of Wealth lives in my house, and he will definitely get rich this year, click!"
How brave are you to start a live broadcast in front of many people?
But today, no one felt that it was against the law at all.
Because military supplies ordered 50,000 jins of buckwheat noodles, 20,000 jins of white noodles, and 5,000 sausages.
In addition, not only did the Xu family re-plan the location of their houses and wasteland, but they also issued orders from top to bottom. Zhenbei Dadi revoked the previous yamen regulations and no longer required the people to buy new wasteland only along the roadside and mountains. Side, or land furrow purchase.
The article that made things difficult for the common people was revoked.
Mrs. Xu sat cross-legged on the bullock cart and allowed Zhao Dashan to ask "Are you looking for someone?", but she never answered. Zhao Dashan casually guessed that he was looking for a female general or General Jia.
Mrs. Xu was happily calculating in her mind: How much money can we earn from these orders? Even if we give the lowest wholesale price, we can still make some money.
Tsk tsk, if the official said "I understand", we wouldn't need to dig deeper. This sentence is enough.
Look, that handsome young man is very trustworthy. No wonder he could become such a high official at such a young age.
Yes, when people do things for her, she praises them.
If she hadn't implemented it, Mrs. Xu would definitely have said: This was just the way it was in ancient times, how could it be as formal as ours in modern times?
Xu Tianxin was sitting in another car and touching the three books on his knees.
Were these three books given by Huo Yunqian? One is about the Qiantang River, one is about ancient Shanghai, and one is about Dunhuang.
Xu Tianxin tapped the book with his hand. It seemed that he had to cover the book again when he got home.
Turning around, Xu Tianxin smiled at Zhaodi and said, "Get well soon. Look at how many goods we have sold. Good times are still to come. I didn't lie to you."
The people in the two cars laughed when they heard Xu Tianxin's words.
So when she finally returned to her village, Mrs. Xu answered everyone with a smile: "Don't mention it, I haven't done it before. If anyone wants to fight in the future, don't hire me."
If you don’t believe it, please look at these two in the car. They go upright and come back sideways. He also spent dozens of taels of medicine, and even selling the two acres of retirement land wouldn't be enough.
It seems to make up for Mrs. Xu.
When Zhaodi held Tian Xin's hand, Xu Tianxin was stunned at the door of the house.
Because the random background music played all the way: "For all the pain of persistence in love, for all the pain of persistence in hate..."
Anyway, those lyrics are heart-breaking and full of hatred. Through this background music, Xu Tianxin guessed that Zhaodi was not completely out of danger yet.
Until Zhaodi was carried into her home, not only did the music suddenly change, it seemed that she wanted to live a good life, but the live broadcast room was also upgraded.
Wait, did she read it wrong? She can sell... Dazai porridge with salted duck eggs?
It's the end of the month, please vote for me, pretty girls.
