MTL - The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family-Chapter 495 hard winter
Yan's second son also called the five boys in the village who were rotating as book boys in the government office.
The first batch of Luo’s five irons came, and the three irons were the most decent. They had good eyesight, read the most characters, and had a studious heart. Yan Huaiwen found that he often lingered outside the school, and decided to give him a regular book boy. For the quota, let him spend half a day in school and half a day running errands beside him.
The environment is the most experienced person. I haven't seen him for a while. The three irons have changed a lot. They have recognized all the people in the government office and learned how to be courteous. He also took the remaining four rotating book boys.
The Luo family sent him a bookcase of the same style from the Yan family, and they came to find Qi Wu to make a dozen. He was about to buy pens and inks, but Yan Xiangheng stopped him, and he gave his old pen to Santie, and the inkstone and ink sticks were shared by both of them. As for the paper, it is even better, you can make it yourself.
After that, Yan Xiangheng had a companion. He didn't regard Santie as a bookboy, but Santie strictly demanded himself according to the standards of bookboys. The summed up experience is taught to those who come later.
This batch came from the Wang family's big dragon and tiger, and the Cui family's big dog and little dog.
Today, Santie took them to Huju City for a walk. It’s enough to be a schoolboy and stay in the school. They can do errands, not just in places like government offices, like barns, and blacksmith workshops. There are a lot of people who are sick and grab medicines here, and places like medical centers and pharmacies have been running frequently recently.
…
Yan Lao Er put a little haggis in the mutton pot.
His teacher liked it.
Then he picked a piece of soft and rotten mutton that was moderately fat and thin, and put it into his elder brother's bowl with serving chopsticks.
Yan Huaiwen just started to move his chopsticks, picked up the mutton, dipped it in Yan Laoer's homemade dry dish dipping sauce, and put it in his mouth.
Chew slowly.
Yan Yu prefers honey-glazed lamb chops and roasted lamb legs, especially the latter. Her father added dogwood powder, which has a slightly spicy taste and a strong salt and pepper taste. She can even taste a little MSG in it to enhance the freshness, woo woo Woo! Thanks dear dad, this is the taste!
Layered leg of lamb, the skin is scorched and oily, and the inside is chewy. Add a clove of garlic, and sprinkle a little dipping sauce in the dry dish. No vegetable bag, just put two pieces of meat on top of each other...
Mouth full of oil!
She hurriedly made one for her grandfather, another for her teacher, and her uncle. After thinking about it, she made it for her hard-working father and elder brother, and finally it was her turn to swallow the food. At that moment, tears of happiness filled Yan Yu's eyes.
It's not touching, it's spicy.
The big cloves of garlic I picked by myself have to be swallowed with tears in my eyes.
Compared to eating by himself, Wang Gonggong prefers to feed Xiao Er.
Look how delicious his grandson eats.
After Yan Yu finished eating, he couldn't sit still. His father had already turned on the toasting mode, probably because the uncle was on the table, and he couldn't let go.
Eunuch Wang was happy today, but he drank two more glasses. Master Tian and Yan Huaiwen also drank some with him.
After drinking for three rounds, there was another hot scene with Yan Lao Er. The people at the table became more familiar than before, and the topics were much more casual. They no longer limited themselves to the content that was actually related to themselves, and would also gossip about others.
Yan Yu said hello to the elders, then got off the table and ran to find Brother Santie and the others.
"Xiaoer, are you full? Have some more?" Santie asked her with a smile.
Yan Yu smiled and said, "I'm full, I can't eat anymore."
"What were you doing this afternoon? Why didn't I see you?" She asked curiously.
The three irons counted the places they ran today, and revealed a message to Yan Yu, "...we don't have much iron material for Huju, and Uncle Yan wants to discuss with the people in Xizhou Prefecture to see if we can go first. Credit us a batch of iron."
"Xizhou..." Yan Yu frowned, and said, "It's not easy to deal with. Last time they came to rescue, the food and grass would be just a reminder."
She thought of the sum of money she had just lent to Shigong, and said: "Let's put together a piece of money here, and we should be able to get it together. If we can buy it directly with money, it's better not to open our mouths."
It is difficult to repay favors.
Da Gouzi said: "It's not just iron, many people have been sickened by the cold weather, and they get medicine when they see a doctor...the medicine is not enough, so I have to buy it."
"Where do we go to buy medicine at this time, the drug dealers don't come to Guanzhou in winter, we can only go to the south to collect the medicine by ourselves, the road is not easy to go back and forth, I'm afraid it will take several months, It will be spring by then." Yan Yu said.
Even if you can buy back the medicine, what's the use of it?
The people in Huju are not like the people in Xiao'an Village. They came to Guanzhou from the sudden cold of Qishan Mansion. New cotton clothes, if you can’t afford it, try to wear thicker ones, carry a stove when you go out, and don’t be stingy with the charcoal. Recently, you have added a lot of sheepskin. With that quick lady, she has already made a whole body for the children at home. .
Speaking of which, Xiao'an Village used a lot of Huju's iron materials.
A single iron arrowhead doesn’t cost much, but it can’t support a large number, and the furnace tube also costs materials. Xiao’an Village can’t wait for every family to have one.
Little Gouzi said: "Our family still has medicine, how about selling it?"
Xiao’an Village has also tasted the sweetness of collecting and selling medicine, and the children all remember it.
Perhaps the adults next door would never have guessed that a table of children was worrying about what they shouldn't be worrying about, discussing in a serious manner how to solve the problem in front of them.
"The ones in your family can't do it. Let's go to the pharmacy today. They have more medicines in one store than yours. They don't get it. Have you seen the people outside the medical center? There are so many..." Wang Dahu gestured with his hands .
Yan Yu thought for a while and said: "Buying medicine is worse than buying ginger. Drinking a bowl of **** soup will keep you warm for a long time..." She added: "Our charcoal business also needs to be adjusted. There is so much firewood, we need to reduce it, or lower the price, so that they can keep it for themselves.”
"It would be great if they could also wear sheepskin clothes." The little dog muttered.
Besides Yan Yu, he is the youngest here, but he can also tell that the people in this city are not warm at home, the kang is not hot, or they don’t have thick clothes to resist the cold when they go out.
Sheepskin!
Yan Yu said silently in her heart.
Naturally, I hummed a familiar melody...
There are no guns or cannons, the enemy made them for us.
There is no sheepskin, no sheep, and the enemy will not give it away, so we can pull it ourselves!
…
After dinner, it was getting late.
Master Tian said: "The road is not easy to walk at night, so why don't you just rest for a day and leave tomorrow?"
"We know each other well, go back to the village tonight, leave early tomorrow, and enter the city when the city gate opens. It's better not to be late, so that the mothers don't worry about it at home." Yan Lao Er said.
I really didn't expect that I would confirm my marriage with the prince today, and I missed the time to go back.
Overwrote again~
Well, I don’t have full attendance anyway, so you can update the time at will~ hehe~
In winter in the north, it’s so cold, it’s so cold, no matter what you wear, standing outside for a long time, it feels so cold that your bones are almost frozen, but it’s so refreshing to eat candied haws and ice cream in winter, cough, stomachache Okay, don’t try it lightly, it will hurt~(*▽*)~
