Chapter 19 Border water shortage

Aunt Liu was helped by Xiao Yuenong, and Xiao Yuechun was helping Tang Zangyue.

Xiao Ling'er and the two twins were young, so Tang Zangyue only told the three cubs to play nearby and not to stray too far.

Xiao Zhonglu patrolled at night and was responsible for catching up on sleep during the day.

Even the former bastard Xiao Jinghuan never stopped chopping firewood or carrying water.

The water was filled in a tub with a lid, and it was enough for the whole family to eat. I just wanted to take a bath on the way, so I didn't even think about it.

The place where they were exiled belonged to the border gate, which was in the north. In this fictional era, there was no South-to-North Water Diversion project, a huge project that would benefit future generations. Even at the border gate, water was in short supply. However, Tang Zangyue had already thought of a countermeasure. She was the first to think of the reservoir and the riverside

Standing water.

Rainfall is heavy in the south. Even if the river water is drained, it will be replenished quickly after a few days of rain. However, it is always easy to be discovered outdoors, but the reservoir is much more concealed.

She made Shi Qihaosheng pay attention to all these.

While thinking about it, Tang Zangyue brewed the medicinal materials, and Aunt Liu also prepared the pickled radish and soybean paste.

She frowned.

Because I was too involved, I didn't notice Aunt Liu's movements. According to Aunt Liu's forgetfulness, there is no reason not to ask about the whole process, right?

She then looked at Xiao Yuenong.

Yes.

Aunt Liu is forgetful, but Xiao Wu is smarter. Maybe Xiao Wu remembered what she said and reminded Aunt Liu during the production process.

Xiao Yuenong put some soybean paste in a small plate and trotted to Tang Zangyue excitedly, "Grandma, try it quickly."

When Tang Zangyue saw her unconcealable joy, she knew she had succeeded.

Who knows a taste——

Unexpected, very pleasant surprise!

The previous porridge with wild vegetables and whole grains had limited ingredients, which restricted Aunt Liu's performance, but Tang Zangyue also roughly believed that Aunt Liu had some talent in cooking.

This soybean paste took the risk and made Tang Zangyue realize that Aunt Liu had more than a little talent in cooking!

This talent is much higher than she imagined.

Xiao Yuenong also dispelled Tang Zangyue's speculation: "Mom, my aunt did it all by herself during the production. Yuenong didn't remind my aunt."

Tang Zangyue glanced at this girl.

His observation was so subtle that he even guessed her thoughts. No wonder when the original owner was here, these five girls were favored even though they were not his children.

Aunt Liu's unconfidence came back again, her eyes were wandering, she didn't dare to look at Tang Zangyue, she just said: "Old madam, does it taste okay?"

Tang Zangyue didn't correct the other party's title and just nodded, "It's very good. If you put it on the market, you can get a good price."

Aunt Liu's gray eyes were slightly bright, she met Tang Zangyue's gaze and said, "Is what the old lady said true?"

"Can I still lie to you?"

Tang Zangyue tasted kimchi, radish and cucumber again. They were sour and sweet, crisp and refreshing, and went very well with rice.

Kimchi, radish and cucumber can be eaten overnight and can be cooked again after eating. However, doenjang cannot be eaten until a month later.

She decided that Aunt Liu would be the cook at home from now on.

At night, Tang Zangyue still went to buy the things collected by the descendants, but the medicinal materials were not as much as expected.

The young man explained: "Cheap medicinal herbs are not worth a lot of money. Even if the drug store teaches the people around you how to brew them, few people actually do it. After all, according to the purchase price, the difference between brewing and brewing is only a few copper coins, unless you are really poor.

People who can’t expose their faults...

The villagers would rather work more in the fields and hope to have more food.

Therefore, many of the items in the drug store are picked and brewed by apprentices, and the weight is not much. I heard that we want to buy it, and the price is much higher than usual. I think it is really not cost-effective. How much is confiscated depends on you, madam.

Opinion."

Tang Zangyue frowned and said nothing about purchasing any more medicinal materials.

For five consecutive days, he and Xiao Yuechun ran to town during the day, and met with the younger generation at night, collecting the cash they exchanged for the fifteenth day.

The iron body can't bear it, not to mention that the original owner is still old.

Finally, the officer who sent the report finally got back the message.

At the same time, new government officials followed.

According to the above meaning, the road to exile cannot be delayed any longer and must start as soon as possible.

Tang Zangyue glanced at the new yamen servant, who was not as easy to talk to as expected.

The injured government officials stayed in the town until they recovered and returned to Beijing. When the next order was given, the new government officials escorted them to continue their journey.

The new batch of government officials have some skills, but compared to Yixiantian, they are far behind.

During the day, Yixiantian obeyed her instructions and added something to the passing river in advance. At night, the group of government servants, including the Xiao family, slept soundly.

Only when she arrives in a town or county will the medicine be added to make things easier for her.

It’s still Yitiantian who helps exchange cash, including contacting merchants in the town/county in advance and using the same method to make purchases. It’s just that along the way, except for the young people I met at the beginning who were relatively peaceful, everyone else was more or less peaceful.

A bit greedy.

Greedy, she can turn a blind eye.

Big greed... For example, knowing that it was a one-time transaction, they took the deposit for the carriage and ran away. The result for these people was that they were knocked unconscious by Shi Fifteen while running away. Not only did they take back the deposit for the carriage, they also lost a pair of hands.

.

As for Tang Zangyue, the money he wanted to give him for the transaction also passed out as the other party fainted, so it was not suitable to complete the transaction in person. He was in a hurry the next day and missed it.

Fifteen:==

In the original work, all the detailed works of the Huns were captured by the government officials on the way to exile and sent to the local government.

The success of these detailed works in the original work is due to the fact that the government officials have no martial arts and only know how to embroider the fists and legs. Secondly, Xiao Zhonglu, the only one in the Xiao family who can fight against trouble, is protected by his whole family even though he is very skilled in martial arts.

Of course, several batches of careful work were carried out, causing serious injuries to these later government officials. It was also because Xiantian interfered and got involved in troubled waters to fish in troubled waters.

The purpose is to allow her to stay nearby for a few more days and stock up on more things.

During this period, she followed Fifteen's inquiries and found several reservoirs.

Let fifteen and others watch from outside the reservoir, while she dived into the reservoir herself.

The moment he dived to the bottom, the water in the reservoir was completely wiped out.

There is no need to store the water. After all, space is forbidden, and the things inside will not move on their own. It all relies on her thoughts to classify them. After she collected the water into the space, she moved it away from the supplies, pulled out a long sword, and

Start skewering these live fish.

Fish cannot be included in the space while they are alive. They can only be put into the space after being strung together, which requires a lot of effort. It is a bit more troublesome, but there will be no shortage of fish to eat in the north.

By the time they reached the wilderness, all the banknotes in their hands had been exchanged for cash, and they had stored much more things than when they were first exiled. They also had enough water for their family to use for ten years.

Among the group of them, Xiao Yi's group of government servants burst into tears.

Without him, it would be terrible.

He had never escorted a team that faced such difficulties and narrowly escaped death! If his colleagues and the old lady hadn't saved him several times, he would have almost died!

Ignoring the group of colleagues who joined him later, Xiao Yi bowed to Tang Zangyue and said, "Thank you Aunt Tang for saving me. I can't repay you for saving my life. I will go through fire and water no matter how hard it is to be useful to me in the future!"

This sonorous and powerful tone made Tang Zangyue's eyebrows twitch.

Even Xiao Yi's brother couldn't help but tugged on his sleeves, telling him to keep his voice down.

After the Xiao family packed up their bags and pushed three cars away, and the others also dispersed, Brother Xiao Yi said angrily: "Why are you so crazy? You don't want your life, right?! Do you know what those people just did?"

What's the origin? At best, it's to protect the old lady. At worst, it's surveillance! You want to go against the court? If you don't want your life, your family will too!"

Only then did Xiao Yi regain his composure, his eyes were scarlet red, and he said angrily: "I don't know anything else. I only know that if Aunt Tang hadn't pulled the handle several times, I would have become the dead soul under the knife! And there was not only Tang beside me.

Auntie, and those colleagues... they turned a blind eye and refused to save me!"

Knowing that Xiao Yi was angry, he calmed down and said: "Okay, I know this trip is thrilling, and you do owe the old lady your life. I just remind you that you don't need to be so blatant if you want to express your stance. The old lady will also suffer.

I can’t stand it.”

"What do you mean?"

"You want to associate with that old lady, so why doesn't she? But there are outsiders here, and she can't get too close to us, let alone express her stance. After all, there are more than one pair of eyes in our team. It feels good to be acted upon by you for a moment.

, but if you visit again after today, the old lady will avoid us in order not to hinder us."

"This, this is not what I want..."

"Okay, let's get some rest first and return quickly. We'll make plans for the next time we come."
