MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 27

Shen Xuanqing was thinking about things, and he was a little lost in his thoughts. When the herbal husband said about the birth and rearing that day, he didn't think deeply. He just saw Lu Gu hugging the child, and his heart was suddenly touched. He has been thinking about it until now, so I only listened to what those people said at the entrance of the alley, and didn't care much.

He didn't forget what he said when he bought Lu Gu, but he didn't take it to heart. What's more, he made a decision with Wei Lanxiang at that time to let Lu Gu be his husband. It's not human, I don't usually think about it at all.

As for Lu Gu's look at him, because of such a timid expression, he didn't connect the events in the alley for a while, and said, "If your legs and feet are tired, sit up and I'll take you back."

Lu Gu shook his head and said no, he wasn't tired, he was far away from the alley, and then he thought to himself that he would be able to eat at the Shen family, he didn't want to be sold, for fear of meeting people like Du Hehua again, and then Shen Xuanqing is different from other people. As long as he is obedient and earns more money, he will not be sold again.

So he was a little relieved.

After leaving the town, there was still a long way to go to Qingxi Village. Shen Xuanqing missed him and worked hard all the way, so he let him get on the scooter and dragged him in front of him.

Country people do not have horse-drawn carriages, and they often use this scooter to carry people and pull things. Some people make money by driving cars. They use donkeys or mules to set up scooters, which can walk faster than people, and can run if the car is light.

Lu Gu sat on the scooter and looked at the tall figure in front of him. He didn't know what to think. He felt that such a Shen Xuanqing would not sell him.

When they came back, both the trolley and the bamboo basket were empty, so Shen Xuanqing pulled Lu Gu directly into the yard before stopping.

Wei Lanxiang, who was working under the eaves, greeted her. Beside her, there was a woman Lu Gu had never seen before. She was about the same age as her. As soon as Shen Xuanqing called out Auntie, Lu Gu got out of the car. He also shouted in a low voice.

"It's so late, are you hungry?" Wei Lanxiang helped Lu Gu take down the bamboo basket and asked them both with a smile.

"Mother, we've already eaten at noon, so we don't need to make it again." Shen Xuanqing picked up the sheepskin without revealing the leg of lamb inside, and took it into the kitchen.

"Erqing sold a lot today. I heard people say that you got up early and pulled a cart full of things to town." Aunt Zhou Yunzhi said with a smile, her voice was a little sharp, and suddenly reminded Lu Gu of Du When the lotus came, my heart skipped a beat.

Not all people with sharp voices are bad people. What Lu Gu cared about was Zhou Yunzhi's eyes and attitude when he spoke. He couldn't tell what was wrong, but it reminded him of Du Hehua.

Shen Xuanqing came out of the kitchen, listened to what she said and replied: "Auntie is joking, it's all worthless things, just watching too much."

"That's so much. People say that a small amount of money can make a lot of money. No matter how cheap it is, you will make a lot of money."

"No matter how much I sell, the money I earn is all small money. How can there be a big brother who does errands in the town and earns more money every month." Shen Xuanqing didn't want to talk to her, so she put the words aside.

A smug smile appeared on Zhou Yunzhi's face.

Wei Lanxiang's expression remained unchanged, she pulled a handful of green onions from the vegetable patch, and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, are these green onions enough?"

"Enough is enough." Zhou Yunzhi didn't look too small. She heard about Shen Xuanqing today, so she borrowed the onion to take a look. If you don't have anything, take the onion and leave.

She didn't know that Shen Xuanqing had already left a few food for the family, all of which were kept in the backyard.

After she left, Wei Lanxiang looked out the door, and then pulled Lu Gu back to the main room, whispering: "This is the aunt of your uncle's family, called Zhou Yunzhi, the village calls it Da Zhou's sister-in-law, and in the future Don't talk to her."

"And those people from the Dafang family, I'll tell you well when I look back, keep in touch with your third uncle and third grandma on a regular basis, and be careful with them, don't have to go there if you don't have anything to do. Don't tell them, if you hear something unpleasant, just ignore it, come back and tell me, there are Erqing."

Lu Gu didn't like the look in Zhou Yunzhi's eyes when he was talking about money, it reminded him of Du Hehua, and when he heard this, he quickly nodded and said that he had written it down.

After Zhou Yunzhi left, Shen Xuanqing went into the kitchen to chop the leg of lamb. Wei Lanxiang heard the movement and hurriedly told Lu Gu to go to the kitchen. Seeing that it was a leg of lamb, there was no reason to be unhappy.

Shen Xuanqing also gave her ten taels of silver and told her to smile, and even Lu Gu became more and more liked.

All the debts owed by the family were paid off, and all the money they earned was theirs. After Wei Lanxiang hid the money, she called Lu Gu into the room and showed him some clothes that were made.

I was so happy to be back yesterday, thinking that Lu Gu was too tired to drive the mountain road. She still had one cuff that was not tucked away, so she didn't mention her clothes. She took it out when she finished it today.

Shen Xuanqing paid the money for Lu Gu's clothes. This time, she didn't take any deductions from it. When she bought cotton, she even paid 80 yuan to go in. She made two thick jackets for Lu Gu, with both jackets and trousers. Save your legs from freezing in the mountains.

In addition to the jacket, there are three thick cloth clothes and a pair of shoes with cotton layers. These are all real materials. She can't do it alone, so she asked Ji Qiuyue to help.

Lu Gu tried on the clothes, and they all fit very well. The new shoes are tight, with a thin layer of cotton on the upper and inside of the shoes, which is very warm. It is soft to step on, and the soles of the feet are also wrapped in soft cotton. He seemed to be stepping on the clouds, and the earth was soft.

Not to mention wearing it in the mountains in late autumn, such shoes are enough in winter.

In previous winters, he didn't have thick shoes and cotton clothes, so he was shivering and barely wrapped himself in the cold. Every year, he would get frostbite on his hands and feet, which would be painful and itchy in the spring, until the frostbite rotted away and the scabs had fallen off and new skin grew. Get over it.

He knew that this was the money from Shen Xuanqing, but Wei Lanxiang made the clothes, and his gratitude to the Shen family came out again. He was so grateful that he didn't know what to say.

Or Wei Lanxiang saw that he took off his cotton shoes and held them with wet eyes, smiled and folded the new clothes, put them all into his arms, and said, "In the future, as long as you and Erqing have a good life, With He and Meimei, our family will have a better life, we have everything we want to wear and eat, and we won’t be able to freeze until we’re hungry.”

Lu Gu nodded heavily with so many clothes and shoes in his arms. There seemed to be a choking in his throat, and he couldn't speak. He could only hum, with a muffled nasal voice.

After dinner waited for Shen Yaoqing from the field to come back, they ate a pot of stewed mutton with some medicinal herbs in it to make it more nourishing, because it was hot, everyone had a rosy face and seemed to be more energetic.

As night gradually fell, the dogs took up a place in the courtyard to chew on their bones. There was no one in the courtyard, so they all washed up and went back to the house to rest. The days are getting better and better, and he is sleeping in a dream with a smile on his face.

And Shen Xuanqing's house was lit with a little candle, the doors and windows were closed, and the two of them sat at the table to count the money.

Lu Gu put the small cloth bag on the table, and took out five pieces of silver from his sleeve pocket and put it on the small pile of copper coins. He no longer thought about Shen Xuanqing giving him the copper coins, and pushed them all over.

Shen Xuanqing was bowing his head and returning to the silver coins, when these things suddenly appeared in front of him, he looked up at Lu Gu subconsciously, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Gu didn't understand, and whispered, "The money is all there."

"Give it to me?" Only then did Shen Xuanqing understand, but this was Lu Gu's hard-earned money, how could he want it, he pushed it back and said, "Just keep it for yourself, and you have money in your hand to buy whatever you want. ."

He said, and put one ingot and five taels of silver into Lu Gu's hand, and said again: "If it's not enough, ask me for it again, and you won't be short of money."

Lu Gu was stunned for a long time, and finally put away the money in Shen Xuanqing's helpless smile.

The candle was blown out, and the room fell into darkness. Not long after Shen Xuanqing came up, he turned over and hugged Lu Gu.

He was equally happy today, except for the 10 taels he gave to Wei Lanxiang, the ones he kept plus the ones he earned in the past made a total of 29 taels of money. Move, and slowly build up your wealth for yourself.

The remaining nine taels of money, five taels were given to Lu Gu, he kept more than four taels for himself, and more than two hundred copper plates were not included in the scattered silver, which can be spent on weekdays, and these are enough for a long period of time. Time spent.

And this time I gave my mother a lot of money, so I don’t need to give it again next time I come back. The meat at home is basically his prey, and the vegetables are grown at home, so there is not much money to buy. It’s either he or Shen Yaoqing to buy oil and salt. Lan Xiang can also save some money in her hand, keep her own money for herself, and decide what she wants to buy.

The night is getting darker, people have the enthusiasm to move forward in their lives, and the days are also rushing, which is the best thing in the world.

In the evening, when the peasants returned home, the village was full of smoke, and it was peaceful.

Shen Xuanqing went out with a pheasant in the afternoon, saying that he had a few drinks with Da Chen and the others in the village, and Lu Gu watched him go out without saying anything.

After dinner, he and Wei Lanxiang went to Aunt Gu's house to buy cloth heads and colorful embroidery threads. This was the first time he said he wanted to buy something. Wei Lanxiang agreed and came with him.

With money in hand, Lu Gu chose a better cloth head and colored thread.

"What are you buying these for?" Wei Lanxiang asked him on the way back.

Lu Gu hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, "I see that Erqing's purse is old, so I will make a new one for him. I also want to make a few sachets. If I don't sell it, I can wear it to my family."

He often heard Shen Yan talk about Erqing, so he followed suit, but he had never called it like that before in front of Shen Xuanqing. Seeing that Shen Xuanqing's money bag was old last night, he thought about it for a long time in the morning. Although he was still uneasy in his heart, he still wanted to help make one. It should be right to do more.

When Wei Lanxiang heard this, she was both relieved and sighed that he was sensible, and she was somewhat surprised to ask him how to embroider sachets.

"My mother taught me, but I didn't do that well." He said honestly, but he was afraid that he didn't make it clear when he was finished, so he added: "My mother."

Speaking of this, Wei Lanxiang's eyes became more distressed, and it was pitiful to see that her mother was gone, and she suffered such a big crime at the hands of the black heart. She has sons and daughters. Just thinking about this kind of thing makes her heart sour, how much suffering a child who has lost her mother a long time ago will have to suffer.

Afraid of making Lu Gu sad, she said with a smile, "That's it, when it's done, give it to my mother, she will wear it everywhere she goes, and show it to others. Our millet may be patient."

"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded solemnly, Wei Lanxiang treats him well, not only Wei Lanxiang, but also the rest of the Shen family, what is it to make a few sachets, he has to work hard to repay him What about the Shen family?
