When he went back, Lu Yan rented a bullock cart. He Yunxi divided the things when he bought them. After entering the village, he went directly to the houses where he had helped find the people before and delivered cloth, meat and cakes to them one by one.
It was almost dark now. People who had gone out to farm had all returned home. When they saw Lu Yan and the others, they greeted them.
Lu Yan had little contact with the people in the village before, and he rarely talked. He was not very familiar with the villagers, and he was not very used to the villagers' enthusiasm. However, He Yunxi greeted him all the way, as if he were an authentic farm girl.
The carriage arrived at Wang Youcai's house, Lu Yan knocked on the door, and Wang Youcai opened the door.
"Uncle Wang, thank you for coming to us last time. This is a little bit of our thoughts, thank you."
After Lu Yan finished speaking, several young men handed the things to Wang Youcai.
Wang Youcai and Wang Yougen are brothers. They are both honest and responsible farmers. Seeing so many gifts, they were too frightened to accept them: "No, no, no, we just went to find you and lend a hand. We are all fellow villagers."
Yeah, where is the need for any kind of thank you gift?"
"In your opinion, it's a helping hand, but in our opinion, it's a life-saving grace. If it weren't for your help, my wife and I don't know when we would be able to get home, but by the time we get home, I won't be able to hold on anymore.
"Lu Yan said, "Actually, he should have come in person, but his leg is broken and he can't get out of bed now. So we had to come on his behalf."
"Master, you..." Wang Youcai's mother-in-law, Mrs. Huang, came out of the kitchen and saw Lu Yan and the others outside with a few things in their hands. Her eyes lit up and she immediately came over and said, "This is for our house."
Yes? Oh, you are so polite. How can you be so embarrassed?"
He said he was sorry, but his movements were not slow, and he took out a lot of cloth, pork and pastries.
Wang Youcai blushed and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Is there anything we can't accept as a thank-you gift from someone? This is the Lu family's sincerity, how can we live up to it? Right?" The one at the back said it to He Yunxi. He saw that He Yunxi was clean.
He was wearing neat coarse cloth clothes, his face and hair were neatly tidied, and he felt sour in his heart.
They are all women, how come she is so beautiful?
Just like a fox charmer.
He Yunxi didn't pay attention to her scrutiny and said: "Third Uncle, Third Aunt, this book is for you. Just don't mind it. We have to go to other people's houses, so we'll leave first. Goodbye, Third Uncle Wang and Third Aunt."
"Goodbye, third uncle, third aunt." The four little ones called out obediently, and He Yunxi and Lu Yan led them away.
After everyone left, Wang Youcai closed the courtyard door and shouted: "It's just a small favor, why are you so embarrassed to accept the gift?"
"What are you embarrassed to accept?" Huang put the things on the table, "Are you doing that as a small favor? If you hadn't gone there, Lu Laoer might have been dead by now. What you did was a life-saving grace! Besides,
Yes, they didn’t just give it to our family, they also gave it to other families. They took it from other families, so what’s wrong with us?”
Seeing that Wang Youcai was still making a face, she added: "You would be stupid if you didn't accept it! This meat is really good and fat. Now, I'm going to fry the meat to replenish the sticks and sticks."
Mrs. Huang left happily. No matter how unhappy Wang Youcai was, there was nothing he could do to his mother-in-law.
He Yunxi and Lu Yan went to send a few more, some of them contributed both times, some were present by Lu Yan that time and not by Lu Ming that time, and some were by Lu Yan but not by Lu Ming that time.
If He Yunxi was present both times, the gift should be heavier, and if the gift was only once, the gift should be lighter. In this way, all the things bought for more than one tael of silver were given away.
They finally went to Wang Yougen's house.
Hearing the knock on the door, Xiao Huang came out to open the door. Seeing Lu Yan and He Yunxi with four little guys, she asked, "Why are you here? Are you ready for dinner?"
"Not yet." He Yunxi had a good impression of Xiao Huang and responded with a smile: "Fourth Aunt, last time my husband-in-law and his second son were all thanks to Uncle Yougen, this is our little thank you gift.
I hope you don’t dislike it.”
Xiao Huang saw the things in the hands of several people and waved his hands repeatedly: "How can this be done? It's just a little effort, so I deserve some thanks."
"This is what it should be." He Yunxi said, "We have already visited other families, and yours is the last one. The other families have taken it in, so please don't be polite to us, Fourth Aunt."
"You guys, this is too expensive." Xiao Huang said.
"The fourth aunt has taken great care of our little ones in the past two years. Uncle Yougen saved our husband and the second child again. Such a small thing can't express our gratitude." He Yunxi asked the four little guys to help.
After putting the things in the main room of Wang Yougen's house, Wang Yougen and his two children came out in shock.
"What's going on?" Wang Yougen asked.
Xiao Huang quickly told them what had happened, and Wang Yougen quickly told them to take it back.
"These are our wishes. Uncle Yougen, please don't refuse." He Yunxi said, "We are here today and there is something we want to ask for your help with."
"If you have anything to do, tell me, Uncle Yougen who can help will do it for you." Wang Yougen said.
"It's like this. The tofu I gave you yesterday was made from beans. We plan to make some tofu to sell and collect soybeans and beans from the people in the village." He Yunxi said, "But we don't get along with the people in the village.
There aren’t many, and I don’t know who has the best and who has more. So I would like to ask Uncle Yougen to help us collect some.”
She had originally planned to leave this matter to Lu Ming, but since Lu Ming was injured, she planned to leave it to Wang Yougen.
"Uncle Yougen, we won't let you do it in vain. If you charge one hundred catties, I will give you ten cents for your hard work. How about that?"
"No, no, no, I'll help you buy some beans, and I won't pay for any hard work." Wang Yougen shook his head vigorously, isn't this burying people?
"Uncle Yougen, don't be too busy to refuse. I also have a request." He Yunxi said, "You help us collect the beans and help us control the quality. If the beans are too bad, we don't want them. And you can buy them for us."
It also takes effort to mention the foot of the mountain. Speaking of which, I think ten cents is still too little, so I might as well add a little more."
Wang Yougen said hurriedly: "No, no, no. Ten cents is a lot."
"Okay, then let's pay ten cents. As for the price of soybeans and peas, they are the same as those sold in the town." He Yunxi decided, "I'll start tomorrow, okay?"
"Okay. I know who has the better one in the village, and I will definitely collect it for you."
"Then I'll trouble you, Uncle Yougen. This is the money to buy soybeans and peas." He Yunxi took a few strings of copper plates from his backpack and put them on the table, "Then we'll go back first."
"Uncle Yougen, fourth aunt, goodbye."
After sending the person away, Wang Yougen was still a little confused. Why did he agree to collect the money?
