Chapter 82 I have a little surprise for you tonight
Lu Jin lowered his head to eat and ignored her.
But his jade-white face still had a faint blush, which he concealed very well.
An Shuyao expressed her understanding of his reticent behavior and could never forget the elegance in his bones.
When he didn't answer her, An Shuyao stood up and opened the door out of boredom and entered the room. There were also tables, chairs, cabinets, and all the necessary items. She came to the bookshelf, reached out and took out a book, which was a book of rites.
An Shuyao opened a page and read. There were so many words that she was dazzled, so she closed it immediately and opened another one. It was about travel notes from various countries. An Shuyao thought it was interesting, so she took it outside and sat opposite Lu Jin.
look.
"Mr. Sir, are the people of Dayong really nine feet tall, with heads and horses, and extremely powerful?"
Lu Jin finished the last bite gracefully, wiped his mouth with a cotton handkerchief, and then said softly: "It's almost the same. The terrain over there is desolate and the weather is bad. The requirements for people who can survive are higher. Over time, Dayong's son
The people, both men and women, are very strong, but their population is not large. Although they are eyeing the city of Daqi, they are not afraid."
An Shuyao suddenly realized that the book also drew a picture of a Da Rong man holding a vicious dog. This dog should be the extremely vicious Tibetan Mastiff. A Tibetan Mastiff can kill an adult man. Da Rong people like to raise horses and train dogs.
She continued to look down: "Da Rong and Dayan are both our neighboring countries, why does Dayan seem to have a rich country and a strong people."
"Dasheng and Dayan are connected to each other. Economically, it is Dasheng that drives the development of Dayan, but also because Dayan's precious and rare treasures flow in. These are not available in Dasheng, which naturally causes competition among the rich.
Robbery, thus allowing money to circulate quickly, and it is mutually beneficial to Dayan, and they will not be enemies in a short time."
An Shuyao looked at him curiously. How could Lu Jin have such a laid-back attitude when he was in power? The analysis and understanding of problems he talked about was nothing like the useless king that the people said.
An Shuyao felt that none of them knew the real Lu Jin, so what they heard was false and what they saw was true.
Lu Jin looked at it and estimated the time: "I have to go to my afternoon class."
An Shuyao packed the food box: "Is it easy to teach?"
Lu Jin pursed his thin lips and said truthfully: "The foundation is very poor. I don't know how Master Guo taught me before."
The teachers in the village generally just teach them how to read. Whether they can learn well depends entirely on their own talent. Unless there are good seedlings, they will focus on cultivating them. Those with mediocre qualifications will probably be left alone.
An Shuyao praised him: "My lord, come on. With your guidance, they will definitely reach a higher level. I'm going back first. By the way, I have a little surprise for you tonight."
Lu Jin watched An Shuyao's leaving figure and blinked lightly.
Little surprise?
For him?
He had received many precious gifts before, but now they were no match for the unknown little surprise from An Shuyao's mouth.
He curled his lips slightly, looking forward to it.
After An Shuyao returned home, she put the sweet potato flour on it with a bamboo sieve and let it dry for a long time. It was still not dry. Fortunately, it didn't rain.
An Yunrui's wound was almost 80% healed. He couldn't stop grinding soybeans in the morning and went to the mountains to carry firewood in the afternoon. Liu Yuxue was still sewing clothes in the house.
An Shuyao went to sort out the clothes she had worn. After thinking about it, she carried the basin, picked up the washboard and soap locust, and went to Xiaoluohe to wash them.
There was plenty of water and wide land there, and most people in the village washed their clothes by the river. An Shuyao didn't want to waste the well water. This was her first time here. In the past, she washed her clothes at home.
By the river, there were people washing vegetables and carrying water. Those washing clothes were at the bottom of the narrowing river, where a group of women were already rubbing their clothes. They were all a little surprised to see An Shuyao coming.
Because An Shuyao didn't like to go to such crowded places, they naturally wanted to have a good relationship with An Shuyao, and everyone greeted him with a smile.
An Shuyao said hello politely, took the basin and went to the other side to wash her and Lu Jin's clothes. They liked to be clean, so the clothes were not dirty, so they just rubbed them with soap locust a few times.
Coincidentally, Shi Sanniang was also there. She was envious at the beginning, but now she can't stand An Shuyao, so she whispered in a low voice: "Why are you pretending? Is our group a plague? She has left us."
So far away, who are you looking down on?"
The woman next to her pulled her. The woman's name was Wang Hongchun. She was in her thirties or forties, with high cheekbones. Her hair was wrapped in a green and white scarf with rough edges. She pulled Shi Sanniang's sleeve: "Carefully
Don't let her listen to you. If you have an emergency after offending her, what will you do if she doesn't help you?"
"I was worried. The last time Lin Huzi fell into the river, she saved Huzi's life with her unique skills. My husband questioned her at that time. I was afraid that she would hold a grudge."
Shi Sanniang had some impression that the last person who said An Shuyao disrespected the corpse was Wang Hongchun's husband Lin Gui.
Later, when she saw that Huzi had been rescued, she hid behind and did not dare to say anything. Shi Sanniang was simply jealous. Her natal family was not considered a good one, and the man she married was also quite decent. Her children were still young and still in school.
There are so many places where money is needed, and she dreams of making a lot of money and riding a horse-drawn carriage.
Shi Sanniang endured it, but finally said nothing more. An Shuyao didn't hear their conversation at all. She had to make tofu after washing her clothes.
After wringing out the water, An Shuyao wiped the sweat from her forehead, carried the basin and left.
In the afternoon, An Shuyao had just finished the first pot of tofu, and a customer came to the door. It was Uncle Zhou.
He smelled the fragrance of tofu. Zhou Daji in Taozi Village, a neighboring village, sold it for ten cents. Only those from better-off families could buy some to taste it. However, it was cheap here in Anshuyao, which was suitable for poor families like them who had little money.
An Shuyao cut a piece with a knife, weighed it with the one he bought specially at noon, and put it into the basket brought by Zhou Bo when it was full.
He gave the money with a smile, took the tofu and left.
Not long after Uncle Zhou left, the villagers came over after hearing the news. Finally, An Shuyao asked Liu Yuxue to help with the cooking. The two of them scrambled for a while before getting on the right track, one collecting the money and the other weighing the tofu.
Twenty pounds of soybeans made a total of sixty pounds of tofu, and all of them were sold out.
She saved everything she sent to the restaurant, and made an appointment with An Shuyao to leave some for them tomorrow. An Shuyao replied with a full mouth.
When Lu Jin came back, he saw villagers leaving his house one after another.
An Hao excitedly ran to An Shuyao's side and hugged her calf: "Little aunt, Haohao misses you."
An Shuyao pinched his little cheek: "We just met at noon."
An Hao pouted and said, "No matter what, I just miss you."
She ruffled his hair and said, "There is candy on the table inside. Go and eat it."
An Hao cheered and went straight to the pastries and candies on the table.
Lu Jin closed the door and asked, "What happened to them?"
An Shuyao held a handful of copper coins and said with a smile: "You all came to buy tofu from me. I finally made some money back. Otherwise, if the cost is so high, I would lose money to death. The price of soybeans has to be lowered."
In Shengjing, it only cost one penny per catty, but here it costs five penny."
She counted the money and asked without raising her head: "Ms. sir, do you think the Zhou family in Taozi Village will come to trouble me?"
