Su Luo and Chun Xing got up a little earlier than usual, scrambling for time to make two buckets of brine from Yunxiang Restaurant, and another bucket they sold in bulk.
Yunxiang Restaurant sells dine-in food for lunch and dinner, but they only sell it in the morning, so there is no conflict between the two.
"I'll go to the restaurant and deliver the two barrels. You can sell this early today, and you'll get whatever you sell. We'll eat the rest ourselves."
The two of them carried the two buckets of braised sewer onto the mule cart, and Su Luo told Chun Xing.
"Don't worry, miss, I know." Chun Xing'er smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her teeth.
A person who has worked as a maid in Zhenninghou Mansion for so many years has never seen any big events, but today she is going to Wangjia Village to hold a wedding banquet. Chun Xing'er was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night.
Wangjia Village is not too far from Chunxi Town, and it only takes half an hour to drive there by mule cart.
Today is the best day since the beginning of spring. The sun is shining warmly and there is not a trace of wind.
Su Luo said that if the whole family went to Wangjia Village, then it would really be a whole family. When they went out, Su Zimu even took the two puppies with him.
Chun Xing sat on the mule cart and joked to Su Zimu, "It's a shame that I don't have any chickens. If I did, you would have to bring all the chickens with you."
Su Zimu snorted and ignored her. Xiaoxiao lay on Xiaoyu's back, resting his chin on Xiaoyu's shoulder, and said softly: "Brother Xiao, when are we going to buy chicks?"
Ah, I can’t get what I want anymore.”
Chun Xing and Su Luo looked at him with dumbfounded eyes almost at the same time.
Su Zimu was always well-behaved and obedient at home, but he never acted coquettishly, and more often acted like a little adult.
this......
Did you act coquettishly on Xiao Yu?
Xiao Yu sat on the right side of the front of the mule cart. He raised his hand and turned around. With a tug, he directly pulled Su Zimu into his arms and held him on his lap. At the same time, he also protected the two puppies he was holding, "This
I haven't seen anything for sale in a few days. When the weather gets better, we will buy it as soon as it is available on the street."
Xiao Yu paid attention to Su Luo while talking.
Su Luo read Xu Xing's letter yesterday. He thought that when he saw Su Luo today, the girl would have swollen eyelids or be depressed.
Unexpectedly, Su Luo's face didn't look strange at all. Instead, it looked very peaceful and casual, as if nothing had happened.
Xiao Yu couldn't help but think of Su Luo's self-control that he had seen at Yunxiang Restaurant, and felt distressed and sad for a moment.
Su Zimu rubbed his little head in Ren Xiaoyu's arms, and found a comfortable position for himself very politely, "Zhang Xiaochuan said, people in the village want to raise chickens, if we see chickens this time
Zai, can you buy it?"
Xiao Yu looked away and smiled.
This kid is still beating around the bush when he talks, but his mind is at his wits end.
"You can buy it if you can, but only if people want to sell it voluntarily."
Su Zimu nodded, "I know."
The willow trees are budding, the grass is sprouting, and the journey is refreshing and joyful.
"ah!!!"
The mule cart was moving forward chatting and laughing. When it was approaching the entrance of Wangjia Village, suddenly a piercing scream that shook the heart and lungs came diagonally from the side.
Everyone in the car looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a boy who was a head taller than Zimu running out of the village, screaming and running. When he passed by their mule cart, he glanced sideways.
But it only took one glance before he turned away and ran away.
Immediately afterwards, a man came out of the village. The man was dressed a little slovenly. He was panting as he ran. He also carried a wooden stick in his hand, with yellow teeth stuck in his waist. He stood at the entrance of the village, spitting and cursing.
"You're a conscience-stricken bastard. If you dare to steal your father's food, I'll beat your legs. You piece of shit, if you dare, run away and don't come back."
"Wang Er, there is a wedding at the patriarch's house today. Don't make any nonsense. What are you talking about if it makes you cry like a ghost and howl like a wolf?"
The man who went to Su Luo's house yesterday to invite them over took one step at a time and rushed out of the village. He shouted angrily at the scolding man and hurried towards the mule cart to greet them.
The man who was scolded glared and did not dare to reply, but soon turned his curious eyes towards the mule cart.
"Thank you for your hard work. Come with me. I will lead the way." The man who came to greet him waved with a smile on his face.
The mule cart followed his lead and entered the village.
Su Zimu sat on Xiao Yu's lap and said to Su Luo in a low voice: "That child just now ran barefoot without any shoes. He was wearing a single piece of clothing, not a cotton coat."
Su Luo turned around and glanced at Su Zimu.
Su Zimu blinked, "Isn't he cold?"
Su Luo couldn't answer this.
The patriarch's home is not far away, so it's time to speak.
The water was washed yesterday, so today we just boil it in the pot. There are many people coming to help in the courtyard of the patriarch’s house. Wuyang Wuyang is a mess. Su Luo and Chun Xing are boiling the water here.
Xiao Yu took Su Zimu to play around outside for a while.
Su Zimu held his puppy and looked around curiously. While strolling around, he asked Xiao Yu, "Brother Xiao, did you hear the rooster crow?"
Xiao Yu couldn't be more funny, "I didn't hear you. Let's look for it again. If we encounter one, we'll ask people if they have chicks for sale."
Su Zimu Le's walking was always bouncy.
As a result, the two of them walked forward for a while, and when they turned a corner, they did not hear the crow of the rooster, but instead heard the sound of teeth chattering.
Extremely large.
The child who had just run out returned to the village at some point, and was now huddled in a ball with his shoulders hunched, nestled in front of a pile of firewood to bask in the sun.
But he was barefoot and wearing a single garment. The single garment was so small and ragged that it could not even cover his body. No matter how hot the sun was, it could not warm him.
As Su Zimu looked over, his stomach growled loudly. He looked at Xiao Yu and then at Su Zimu, held his arms and turned around, closing his eyes.
He looked indifferent.
Xiao Yu didn't move, waiting for Su Zimu's reaction.
Su Zimu didn't move, just stood there and looked at the child. After a while, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and stuffed the two puppies into Xiao Yu's hand, and took out a small piece from his pocket.
dessert.
"Do you want to eat?"
Su Zimu stepped forward, squatted in front of the child, and handed over the snacks he took out.
"It's not dirty, it's clean. I pretended to be it this morning. You can eat it. People will faint if they are hungry for a long time."
Xiaoyu raised his eyebrows.
Su Zimu is only five years old, still knows this?
Has he ever been hungry? Or has Su Luo been hungry?
Su Zimu handed over the snacks, but the child across from him didn't move at all. However, his stomach growled one after another, and it seemed that he was very hungry.
"You eat, I've been hungry before. I couldn't eat for a day or two. I almost starved to death. I know what it's like to be hungry. I'm not giving you alms or pitying you. I'm with you.
We are in the same boat, so you can eat it."
Xiao Yumei's heart skipped a beat.
Su Zimu has been going to Zhenninghou Mansion since confinement. When has he been so hungry that he can't eat for a day or two?
it is true?
Or are you kidding this kid?
Xiao Yu looked at Su Zimu and the child for a moment.
The child was silent for a while, then slowly turned his head, and moved the corner of his mouth, wanting to say something, but his actions were faster than his brain, and before he could say anything, his hand had already grabbed the snack Su Zimu handed him.
stuffed into his mouth.
Such a small piece of snack is not enough to satisfy your hunger.
