This time to deliver medicine to Huju, Village Chief Luo decided on three of his family, Luo Da, Hu Da and Qi Da, to go with Yan Xiangheng.
His family, Luo Da, has a stable temperament, the Qi family is close to the Yan family, Qi Da has good health and strength, and Hu Da is not only an accurate arrow, but also has sharp eyes.
Four people and two mule carts contained eight bags of medicinal materials that were not too heavy.
Yan Yu glanced around and saw that the group was about to set off. He ran to Sister Da Ya and asked in a low voice: "Sister Da Ya, do you want to go?"
Da Ya nodded hesitantly.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's jump in the car now and we'll make sure we can go to Huju together."
Da Ya was a little hesitant. Village Chief Luo didn't arrange for them to go, and wouldn't it be bad to do so?
Some...somewhat indecent.
"Aren't you worried about uncle? Big brother is helping you look. It's a lot different than seeing it with our own eyes. You have to take a look for yourself before you can rest assured. Big sister, listen to me. If I say rush, let's go over there. Don't worry, it won't happen.
Someone chased us down!" Yan Yu said firmly.
Missing her father outweighed her shame, Da Ya pursed her lips and whispered: "Okay."
"Now, rush!" Yan Yu took the lead.
Catching the moment when Yan Xiangheng was saying goodbye to the village elders, he rushed over like a cannonball, supported the carriage with both hands, kicked up with his calves, stood firmly on the carriage, and looked at the stunned people with pride.
Big brother.
The whole process was smooth and smooth.
Da Ya walked a few steps quickly, her cheeks were as red as dye, and she sat down gently, lowering her head and eyes, and her body was stiff and did not dare to move.
"Aunt Rong, I forgot to take my little backpack, please help me take it down." Yan Yu shouted.
Aunt Rong turned around, picked up the backpack that Yan Yu had put aside and "forgotten", and handed it to her.
The cat meowed lowly inside.
Yan Yu patted the basket on his back to make it quiet.
Even though Grandma Rong was holding it easily, the basket was filled with tons of things and even had a cat stuffed in it.
Yan Yu moved to the side to make room for his elder brother.
She had made good calculations. The mule cart was too rich for two people plus the few bags of medicine. Even if she and the eldest sister were added, they would still be able to run. At worst, they would have to move two bags of medicine to another car.
Sure enough, none of the people said anything to the two sisters who suddenly ran up.
Li Xuemei smiled and shook her head, her daughter was taking advantage of Da Ya.
It's up to her to see if Heng'er can drive her away.
The mule cart was not moving very fast, and the car body bumped and swayed slightly.
Yan Yu chuckled, took out the dried apricot meat from the backpack, stuffed one into the eldest sister's mouth, ate one herself, and then spread it out for the eldest brother to take.
Yan Xiangheng kept a straight face for a long time, but still couldn't hold on, and said in frustration: "Why are you following us? Huju City is still sick. Let's go to deliver medicine, so be careful."
"I know." Yan Yu favorably pushed the dried apricot meat towards him with a golden color: "Brother, take one and try it. It's sweeter than fresh ones."
Yan Xiangheng did not resist the "sugar-coated bullets" from his waiter. He picked one up and put it in his mouth, his expression much calmer.
Yan Yu stuffed a few bags into the hands of Uncle Hu who was driving the car, and threw the remaining half of the bag to Uncle Qi and Uncle Luo in the other car.
He shouted: "Uncle Qi, Uncle Luo, try it. The apricots dried at my house are so sweet!"
Qi Da smiled naively, and grabbed two of them with his big hands. They tasted really good, and Luo Da, who was too embarrassed to reach out, grabbed them and stuffed them into him.
Luo Da tasted it, and the sweet taste seemed to sweeten his heart.
Hu Da asked: "Xiao Er, your dried apricots are really good. Can you teach your aunt how to make them later? I occasionally eat sweet mouth."
"It's not difficult to do. When my father comes back, ask him to go to the village with fruit trees and buy some. I, Aunt Hu, will be able to understand it after taking a look."
Yan Yu added: "The main reason is that the apricots are sweet."
Luo Da said: "The apricots here are bigger than those over Qishan. If your family has planted apricots, do you think they will survive?"
"Yes!" Yan Yu replied affirmatively.
With Aunt Rong here, how could the seeds not survive? Although the seeds they planted had not yet broken through the ground, Aunt Rong had already written to her that the seeds were good and full of vitality.
"If you plant so much, there will always be something that will grow. It's just that planting like this is not as fast as directly planting fruit seedlings, but it saves money, hehe! My dad said he had nothing to do, so he went to buy some fruits. He ate the flesh and planted the core, killing two birds with one stone.
, very cost-effective.”
Luo Da and Hu Da thought in their hearts at the same time: Don't tell me, Yan Laoer is the one who knows how to scheme.
It sounds like this is really the case. It can be eaten and planted. I should buy some at home. It doesn’t need to be much, just one basket is enough. It can not only sweeten the family, but also save the seeds.
Several people talked about the Yan family's house again.
"The beams have been put up and the tiles have been put up. Is your house almost ready?" Luo Da asked.
Yan Yu shook his head and said: "There is still a lot of work to do. The pigsty has just been wiped out, as well as the ground and courtyard walls. Master Lu said that the fire walls must be burned and tried. If there is anything wrong, it must be changed."
The main reason is that the Yan family has a lot of requirements. Even with the fire wall, they still want a kang, and they also want a big kang. The floor in the house needs to be paved with bricks, and the ground in the yard needs to be leveled with plaster. It is best to make the yard wall smooth.
Slip away, leaving the bad guy with nowhere to use his strength if he wants to climb.
Master Lu promised from the beginning that he would only take care of the house, but now he is responsible for all the big and small tasks.
Of course, it’s because the whole village is now queuing up for them to build stoves and kangs and complete the village work. They can have a good year this year. It’s also because the Yan family is kind and the meals are carefully cooked. There is meat every day for Master Lu.
Several people's faces were shiny after eating.
Seeing that the two men at the head of the Yan family were not at home, Master Lu felt that he could not give up. Therefore, he did not mention money or not. Whenever Yan Xiangheng and Yan Yu came to see him, he tried his best to change it.
Method.
The accounts of every family in the village were kept on the Yan family, and Yan Xiangheng would check with him every day, which particularly satisfied Master Lu.
At first he kept a record of it himself, but later he stopped keeping it at all and just looked at the Yan family's accounts.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "According to the custom of our village, whoever builds a house has to warm the pot. The time for each house to be warmed up is about the same. Has Village Chief Luo mentioned that we
What kind of regulations?" Hu Da asked Luo Da.
Luo Dadao: "My dad has a headache over this matter. It depends on the day. Who's family is in front and whose family is behind... We have to wait in line for a while, I'm afraid it won't be until the Chinese New Year."
Yan Yu:……
So exaggerated?
But if you do the math, it's quite normal.
Not to mention the few days of free time in between, even if you eat from house to house every day, it will take several months.
"There are not many people in the village during the day. Uncle Luo, why don't you talk to the village chief and grandpa, let's not hold banquets one by one, but let's do it together to save time and money." Yan Yu suggested.
Yan Xiangheng also said: "It may not be a solution. If we follow the old rules, each family will spend a lot of money."
It’s not just rice, the hot pot must have meat, and the vegetables can’t be too good. No matter it’s an adobe house or something else, this hot pot meal for a new house means that life is prosperous, and the better it gets, the better.
The more people come, the more lively it is, the better the food is, and the host's face becomes brighter when people give him sincere praise.
Hosting a banquet is a big deal in the village. Whether life is good or bad cannot be seen when the door is closed, but it can be reflected in the banquet.
What Yan Xiangheng said about throwing away a lot of money is also true.
Not only does the host have to buy meat and vegetables, but the guests who come to the banquet also have to add some gifts. The gifts are also divided into different levels depending on the relationship, distance, etc.
In short, it is a very particular and troublesome matter.
As one of the top families in the village, if the Yan family goes to someone else's house for dinner, the gift cannot be too thin, and the same goes for the other way round. Yan Yu feels a headache just thinking about how to balance the exchange of gifts.
Luo Da thought for a while and said: "I think this method is good, but my father and several village elders are not so easy to convince."
Elderly people are very persistent in certain traditions.
I may not agree with such a frugal warm pot.
"Ask uncle later, hehe!" Yan Yu said seemingly unintentionally.
The only person who could make Village Chief Luo regress easily was her uncle, and no one else could.
From a practical point of view, my uncle would also agree to this proposal.
Their village is now at full power, spinning like a spinning top.
It's really not as good as everyone getting together, setting a day, having fun together, and relaxing at the same time.
…
From a distance, Yan Yu and his group put on their masks.
Huju City is still the same.
There are some differences again.
There are more thatched huts outside the city, and some of them are covered with shabby sheets, which are made of old clothes and old quilts. Although they look ugly, they do take 'isolation' seriously.
Come and do it.
This change made Yan Yu's eyes brighten instantly.
Looking closer, many victims were also busy wearing masks.
Some helped to cook and distribute the porridge, some helped to cook medicine, and some carried water buckets on poles, having just returned from fetching water from somewhere.
Several women were noisily washing clothes. The big tree not far behind them was covered with ropes.
Good guy, there are a lot of things to dry, not only clothes and sheets, but also mats of various sizes. I don’t know whether they are originally tattered or have been rubbed. They are dangling on the rope with their teeth and claws, and a few are taken away by the rising wind from time to time.
Grass stick...
The doctor carrying the medicine box had a seat, and a group of victims lined up. He asked a few questions, looked at his expression carefully, then wrote down a message and waved to the people.
The man quickly stepped back, revealing the man behind him. The man behind him held his stomach and said something. The doctor pointed his hand and asked him to stand alone on the other side.
After quickly viewing the group of people, the doctor led the one standing alone into a hay shed.
After a while, the doctor came out, but the man was not there, so he probably stayed.
Seeing that Yan Yu kept shouting in her heart: Diversion! Isn't this just a diversion!
Oh my God!
She and her father gave a few explicit hints. Did Dr. An absorb it so well and have everything arranged so quickly?!
Such and such, such and such!
Why worry about the epidemic not going away!
She saw a familiar figure.
It’s Lao Yan!
"Uncle! Uncle! We are here! We are here to deliver medicine!" Yan Yu shouted loudly.
The child's high-pitched voice is particularly eye-catching.
Especially the medicine mentioned in her words attracted everyone's attention.
Yan Huaiwen was just informed by the government officials that two mule carts were coming from a distance, and it looked like his waiter was here!
In order to see clearly, Yan Yu stood up early, put her feet on her feet and stretched her head, not to mention how conspicuous she was.
As soon as Yan Huaiwen heard this, he hurried over.
I wanted to talk about her, but why are you here again?
Again and again, is Huju City still a good place to go?
Others can't hide, but she is always running here.
But when he really saw someone and heard his little niece's joyful cry, Yan Huaiwen paused and a helpless smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Dad, let's deliver the medicine. These eight bags are ready. You...find someone to check and accept them."
Yan Xiangheng couldn't bear to move his eyes away, he couldn't get enough of his father.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Dad lost a lot of money.
However, he knew the importance and took care of business first.
Yan Yu doesn't care about that. The medicine has been delivered. Is it important to accept it? No! What's important is to pay!
Where is the great master? Where is the great master?
Seeing the victims squatting outside the city, they have wiped away their previous depression. Now is the time to strike while the iron is hot and take medicine, take medicine, take medicine.
Only when there is hope of life can the medicine take effect.
Yan Huaiwen called Liang Manshan over and said, "Manshan, please take stock first, and I'll call the doctor."
Liang Manshan knew in his heart that he used this reason to let him stay and ask about the situation at home.
I felt grateful in my heart and my eyes were slightly moist.
Yan Yu was acting like a ghost. Her eldest brother and eldest sister were still following her uncle's back, but she had already started talking to Uncle Liang.
"Uncle Liang, you look like you've lost weight. Are you not eating well? Feng Nian asked me to bring you some food. You have to take good care of yourself. When you go back to check on his homework, he said he can memorize it.
, I don’t believe it, there are so many, how could you memorize them so quickly, you must have lied to me, haha!”
She deliberately said something ironic to calm Uncle Liang's mood, which was about to burst into tears.
well!
Her father was right, Uncle Liang was such a sweetheart!
The eye sockets are too shallow.
"Xiaoer, how is everything at home? How is my father? Where is my wife? Fengnian...has he really finished his homework?"
Why did you change your question when you arrived in the harvest year? It should be three-part, with layers of progressive emotions. However, with this turning point, the emotions suddenly changed.
"Grandpa Liang comes out to weave baskets with Village Chief Luo and the others when he has nothing to do now. He is very good with his hands and can weave very quickly and well. By the way, my little basket is Grandpa Liang's craft. Uncle Liang, look at it, isn't it?
It’s so dense and strong, I really like it!”
Yan Yu's little mouth babbled: "My aunt goes into the mountain with the villagers every day to dig medicine. Don't worry, don't go too deep. It's not far from the foot of the mountain.
As for my brother Feng Nian, I have a heavy responsibility now. There are few people in the village who can write and count. My brother Feng Nian now goes to Dr. Cui’s house every day to write down the number of herbs brought back from the mountains for everyone. I also brought the book.
Let me look for it."
Yan Yu dug out Liang Fengnian's work-point ledger from her backpack.
