He was still wearing the linen green clothes. In the dim light, it was faintly visible that his shoulders were broad and his waist was narrow and tight. Even though his steps were not steady, Li Tannian could be sure that such a majestic figure would not stand out even among the crowd.
People can see his presence at a glance.
"Dad!" Dabao shouted.
Lu Zhi walked up to them in three or five steps, holding a cane.
He looked Li Tannian and Dabao up and down, and couldn't help but frown: "Why didn't you call me for such a big matter?"
After all, he was also the man in the family, and he felt a little angry when he was ignored by this thin and weak woman again and again.
Just now, if he hadn't seen that neither she nor Dabao came back, he would have thought of going out to look for someone. Now, I'm afraid he would be kept in the dark!
"Isn't there something wrong with your legs and feet?"
"Me!" Lu Zhi was speechless.
Although he had problems with his legs and feet, he was still good at beating people. In order to prevent this skinny woman from suffering, he wanted to say a few words, but was interrupted by Li Tannian.
"Okay, Dabao and I can solve it, right, Dabao?" Li Tannian lowered his head and glanced at Dabao, and saw Dabao smiling at her.
Originally the most thoughtful guy, at this moment, there were two shallow dimples in his smile, and he was amazed when he saw Li Tannian.
Lu Zhi felt that he couldn't explain it to Li Tannian. Seeing her pulling Dabao away, he could only hold back his anger and follow them step by step.
In the evening, when we sat down at the table, everyone was very hungry.
The boiled fish has been simmered for too long and is a bit old, but it is still spicy and delicious.
Each of the four little ones ate two large bowls of white rice, until their bellies were full.
After the meal, Li Tannian went to the stagnant pond to collect crayfish.
The crayfish in the four fish and shrimp baskets can hold three large buckets of fish and shrimp.
When I was going back, I met a group of villagers who were watching their return from the ancestral hall.
The villagers all said something about Master Bai and Lu Zhier being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall.
Li Tannian secretly said that he deserved it and went home.
In the next two days, she tried adding spicy crayfish and five-spice oil braised crayfish.
As a result, the crayfish business got better and better, and Li Tannian gradually increased the amount of crayfish from two barrels to three barrels.
One bucket is braised, one bucket is stewed in five-spice oil, and the other bucket is spicy.
As the reputation of crayfish spreads, not only individual customers will come to buy it, but also nearby tea shops will come to purchase half-barrels and half-barrels of crayfish to sell.
When encountering this kind of thing, Li Tannian's service attitude is very good, and he will usually send it to a tea shop. After all, there are too many crayfish in the village, and it is a good thing that there are many people buying them.
On this day, she closed the stall and took Dabao, Erbao and Sanya to a nearby teahouse to deliver goods. As soon as she collected the money, she saw a thin and frail figure leaving the teahouse.
The straight bridge of her nose and her handsome facial features gave her a sense of familiarity, resembling her senior brother who depended on her in the last days.
In fact, in the days since she came to this other world, she has tried her best to adapt to everything here, and rarely thinks about things in the end of the world.
But when she saw that familiar face and eyes, she seemed to have returned to the days when she and he were dependent on each other.
She remembered that when she was framed, her senior brother was on the way here. Is it possible that he also traveled here with her?
Li Tannian's expression tightened and he hurriedly wanted to chase him out, but Erbao grabbed his sleeve.
"Mother, look at Third Sister!"
He pointed towards Li Tannian, who saw Sanya telling everyone about "Journey to the West" on the small table in the teahouse!
The little guy was not big, but he was very powerful. He just stood on a small stool beside him and kept talking vividly. He also patted the gavel from time to time. With that style, he really looked like a storyteller!
"Third sister made a bet with the storyteller that she must go up to the stage and tell people about Journey to the West." Erbao said weakly.
Li Tannian's eyelids twitched. There were people from all walks of life in this teahouse, and she didn't like Sanya hanging around here.
Just as he was planning to take the little guy away, he heard a storyteller with a long beard wearing a long gown, holding a folding fan in his hand, walking over.
"Madam, are you telling this story to your children?"
He paused, then smiled and said: "This story is really good, I wonder how much this lady will charge."
Dabao stood aside with a dark face, obviously not approving of Sanya coming to the stage to tell stories to people.
"Gang Sanya made a bet with the storyteller. If everyone likes the story she tells, the storyteller will pay for it for us."
Buying a story? What follows what!
Li Tannian was afraid that the man just now would go away, so he looked outside anxiously.
"Yes, madam, I will give you two taels of silver, what do you think?" At this time, the storyteller said again.
Two taels of silver was no longer a small amount, and both Erbao and Dabao looked shocked.
At this moment, a round of applause came, and Sanya came down from the table. Li Tannian did not bother to talk in detail with the storyteller, and pulled Sanya out of the teahouse.
But at this moment, outside the teahouse, where is the figure of the man just now?
Li Tannian was disappointed. Mr. Scholar thought she didn't like the price, so he chased her out again: "Madam, please tell me a price. If it's possible, we'll pay your price."
Li Tannian didn't answer and asked instead: "A thin man came out of here just now. Sir, do you know who he is?"
The storyteller looks confused and is thin?
There are so many people coming and going in this teahouse all day long, how can he remember to stay?
The three little ones on the side looked at Li Tannian at the same time, secretly becoming wary.
Why does mother want to inquire about other men? Doesn’t she still want to live with her father?
"I don't know, madam, why haven't you said what price you want?" The storyteller spoke again.
Li Tannian frowned, hiding her disappointment. She stretched out her right index finger: "One hundred taels!"
This is a masterpiece, and Li Tannian felt that even a hundred taels would not live up to its reputation.
One hundred taels! The storyteller was shocked.
"You can think about it." Li Tannian pulled Sanya and started to leave.
The storyteller hurriedly stopped her again: "Madam, let me give you five taels of silver first: you tell us the story of the first few chapters, and I will pay you the rest of the money as soon as possible. How about that?"
The storyteller is an old man, and he knows in his heart that if he can't make money back by then, he won't want the rest of the stories.
Li Tannian thought about it and realized that it was just a business deal anyway, and if he didn't do it, it would be in vain, so he immediately agreed.
The three little ones on the side watched this scene silently. They were not happy about the five taels of silver. On the contrary, they all had great uneasiness on their faces.
If Mom really falls in love with someone outside, what will they do, and what will Dad do?
No, no one can compete with them for their mother-in-law!
Sanya's round eyes rolled, and she suddenly had a plan on her mind!
