MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 25

The mountain road is rugged, and the journey is tiring and difficult, but the full load of prey fills the heart with enthusiasm, and it seems that there is endless energy on the legs and feet.

On the hillside at the back of the village, two small dogs barked and ran home, just in time for Shen Yaoqing, who was carrying a **** to the ground, to hear it. He hurriedly looked over and saw that Shen Xuanqing was pulling the scooter, which seemed to be quite heavy, so he called to the yard. He put down his **** and hurried to meet him, rubbing two dog's heads in a hurry, otherwise they would have been rubbing against his legs and wagging their tails.

Wei Lanxiang and the three of them rushed out when they heard the movement. Seeing that Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing were doing well, the worry in her heart disappeared. Her eyes were reddish and full of emotion. There was a husband who was different. When he came down from the mountain, he was clean and neatly dressed, no longer as disheveled as a bandit and bandit, and smiled more, looking at him called a spirited head.

In this way, even if she died now, she would be worthy of Shen Shunfu when she went underground.

"Mother, sister-in-law." Lu Gu whispered to her and Ji Qiuyue.

"Hey, it's good to come back." Wei Lanxiang smiled happily, and followed Shen Yan to unload the bamboo basket on his back.

"Brother Guzi, can you give me one of these flowers?" Shen Yan saw that there were several mountain flowers on top of the bamboo basket. They couldn't tell their names. The petals rose from the bottom and turned from pink to orange, like the clouds in the evening sky. , very beautiful, because there are several, she couldn't help asking.

This is what Lu Gu saw when he was resting on the road. A few branches were broken from a cluster. They were originally brought for them. Wen Yan took it out from the inside and said, "It's for you."

When he saw Ji Qiuyue again, he handed it over and whispered, "Sister-in-law, there are you and my mother too."

Wei Lanxiang laughed so hard that she handed the flower back to Lu Gu, but Lu Gu shook her head and whispered no, so she gave it to Ji Qiuyue and said, "It's hard for you to be filial, it's just that your mother is old and still What Dai Hua'er does will be laughed at by the old monster."

The family chatted and laughed and pulled the scooter back together.

Shen Yan had beautiful flowers in her hair. Although she was young, her round face and almond eyes were pleasing, and she looked even more lovely when she wore flowers.

She was in a hurry, eager to go out and wanted to show off with girls of the same age, but the scooter pulled so many things back and told her to stop again. It's not too late to show off the flowers on your head.

"This is a black-hoofed sheep? Amitabha can sell for a lot of money, and there are a lot of pheasants." Wei Lanxiang looked at the things on the scooter, and saw one of them muttering one, and her heart was full of joy.

When she knew that the dry goods carried in the bamboo baskets of Lu Gu were all made by him, and she got Shen Xuanqing's wink, she was full of praise: "The millet has collected so many wolfberries, and there are also a lot of wormwood, it's amazing, can It’s a lot of money to sell, so tomorrow’s mother will make some rice wine for you, grab the wolfberry and cook rice wine to drink.”

Lu Gu looked at Shen Xuanqing's photos well and was so diligent. She was not biased towards her son's selfishness. The more she looked at Lu Gu, the more she felt that God's eyes were opened. : "Don't wait until tomorrow, mother will go with your sister-in-law."

Lu Gu bowed his head shyly when he was praised, but before he could look up, Wei Lanxiang carried a basket and went out with Ji Qiuyue to make rice wine.

Shen Yan also watched the scooter at this moment, plucked a few long Caiyu from the **** of a dead pheasant, and said to Shen Xuanqing, "Second brother, I went to Caixia and the others to play. ."

Happy to come back today, Shen Xuanqing didn't care about her craving for ducks, and even took a small cloth bag for her and said, "Share with them."

Shen Yan took it over and took a look. It was filled with wild fruits, with a bigger smile on her face, and she went out happily.

The things on the trolley were not unloaded, only three pheasants and two hares were taken down and left to Wei Lanxiang and the others to eat, and the rest would be pulled to the town tomorrow to sell.

Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing washed their faces and sat in the courtyard to rest. Shen Yaoqing didn't go to the ground. He took a bowl and sneaked into Wei Lan's incense room, grabbed half of the bowl of melon seeds, and sat under the eaves to chat happily with his second brother.

The melon seeds were bought two days ago. They were fragrant roasted seeds and nuts. Wei Lanxiang was not willing to take them out too much, thinking that if there was someone at home, it would be a good idea to serve this treat.

Lu Gu had eaten melon seeds twice at such a young age, but not many. Now he can sit down and eat slowly.

Some people make rice wine in Qingxi Village, and Wei Lanxiang and Ji Qiuyue also went to the tofu workshop in the next village, intending to stew tofu with meat sauce. There is no tofu in the mountains, so when they come back, they will not be rewarded.

It's just that the family hasn't bought pork recently. She inquired about it, and finally asked for half a piece from the village's husband, Lin Jinhu, and she will pay it back tomorrow.

When she came back to see Lu Gu and Shen Xuanqing resting in the courtyard, she did not let Lu Gu fight, and went to the kitchen with Ji Qiuyue to make a fire to cook. As for the melon seeds that Shen Yaoqing stole, she glared at the eldest son, this greedy, no Those who knew it thought it was a child.

But after staring at her, she smiled again. Speaking of which, she was partial to Shen Xuanqing, but it was not bad for her eldest son. The palms and backs of her hands were full of meat, but they were nothing but melon seeds, so they could eat them.

As for Shen Yan, the younger daughter is not comparable to the two sons. She always takes Shen Yan when she goes to town to sell eggs and duck eggs. Even if she doesn't speak, even Ji Qiuyue knows that she is bringing the youngest daughter to the festival. Not to buy a bowl of hot and sour beancurd is to buy a shortbread.

Of course Lu Gu didn't know it, he had just arrived after all.

After eating the melon seeds, the meal is ready.

The rice wine is exceptionally refreshing, the red wolfberry also looks good, and the tofu is simmered until it is scalding hot, and the mouth is smooth and tender with a strong meat aroma. I also fried the two fresh mushrooms and green vegetables brought back by Lu Gu. Another soft white flour bun, the white flour is fine, it is much more delicious than the miscellaneous noodles, this meal can be said to be very satisfying.

There was constant chatter and laughter in the yard, and everyone in the Shen family had smiles on their faces. Lu Gu didn't have to wash the dishes after eating. Ji Qiuyue asked him to go back to his room to rest and walked this way.

The day passed happily, and in the early morning of the next day, Lu Gu followed Shen Xuanqing to the morning market.

The official road is smooth, and it is much easier to walk than the mountain road. The scooter is pushed forward. Lu Gu has been used to running in the mountains for the past ten days. Walking on such a flat road suddenly feels relaxed. In the end, it is better to go down the mountain.

He was carrying a large bamboo basket. In addition to the wolfberry and wormwood, he also picked a lot of wild bath beads. This thing is much cheaper than the fragrant bath beads. Even people in the town often use it.

As for the dried mushrooms, he felt that there were not enough. He heard people say that it is good to eat. They can eat it themselves when they cook soup or stew in the late autumn and winter. Except for the ones he left in the mountains, they also bring some for the family. , If you find more fungi in the future, it will not be too late to sell them.

The two of them got up early, and it wasn't until the morning set that there were more people coming and going.

Because the scooter was pushed today, Shen Xuanqing brought two benches from home so that he could sit and rest.

Lu Gu's bamboo basket was placed on the back of the trolley, and it didn't take up any other space, so he only had to pay a share of the market fee. He took out the bundle of mugwort leaves so that people could see it, and put the cloth bag containing wild bath beads on the bamboo. Next to the basket, you can see it when you open the mouth.

Shen Xuanqing shouted, he hesitated for a while, and when he saw the old woman passing by, he whispered: "Bath beads are cheap, five dollars a penny, and goji berries are also available, three yuan."

Because it is dry goods, sanwen refers to a tael of sanwen, which is the market price of wolfberry. Last night, Wei Lanxiang went to the village to borrow a small name, and asked him to use it when he sold things, so he didn't have to go to the market to borrow others. Yes, otherwise you have to look at people's faces.

"Auntie, look at this bath bead, it's big enough, it can take two days to wash your hands." Shen Xuanqing heard his voice, a smile crossed his eyes, and helped him talk to someone.

Seeing the woman looking over, he said again, "The ones picked in the deep mountains and forests are better than those in the mountains in front of them, and they can still smell good after washing their hair."

Hearing this, even the two couples who passed by came forward, grabbed the handle and looked at it and smelled it.

Shen Xuanqing didn't lie, the tree that Lu Gu found was really good, it was the one they used in the mountains, and they could smell it after washing their hair.

"It doesn't smell as good as fragrant bath beads." A husband was picky, and he glanced at the wolfberry in the bamboo basket and tasted it.

Shen Xuanqing was used to seeing it, and said softly: "How can wild bath beads be compared with fragrant bath beads, we are cheaper, and they are already more fragrant than the next bath beads."

"In this way, I will buy six for a penny." The husband bargained with him.

"Mamma is joking, things are not expensive at all, and they are so good. My husband walked back to Guangshan Road for three hours, and it's not cheap." Shen Xuanqing did not agree.

This thing is like a cheap sale, only five people get one copper plate, and now a copper coin can't even buy a sesame cake. If the price is lowered, Lu Gu will be busy in the mountains these days.

The husband felt that he wanted something so much. Seeing that Shen Xuanqing didn't let go and didn't leave, he said a lot in his mouth. In the end, Shen Xuanqing said that if he bought twenty cents, it would be counted as six.

Originally wanted to buy ten cents to go back, but after hearing twenty cents, it was cheap, and the husband bargained again, which made Shen Xuanqing a little annoyed, and finally asked Lu Gu what he meant, as long as he bought fifteen cents, he would get six.

It was the first time that Lu Gu was selling something, and he didn't know how much he would give for fifteen pennies under his tension.

When the husband left, he reached out and took two more. Shen Xuanqing didn't see it. This kind of person is quite common when doing business. The most important thing is to make money with anger, so don't care too much.

As for Lu Gu, he also understands the truth. Besides, he sold it for fifteen cents at once. When Shen Xuanqing didn't pick up the money, the husband handed it over to him.

Fifteen copper coins are not light, they are heavy in his hand, but he has no time to think about it, because there are still two women who want to buy them, and the two of them just agreed with the husband to lower the price. Since there are six for a penny, they both want it Twenty texts, and after that, I have spared two more.

After Lu Gu finished counting the wild bath beads and collected the money, together with the fifteen cents on the scooter, there would be a full fifty-five cents.

The peasants are very happy to earn fifty pennies, not to mention Lu Gu, who has never touched many copper plates. When he passed through his hands, it was only ten pennies at most, when his mother was there.

This large amount of copper coins looked like a dream to him, but the dream would wake up. He reluctantly gave up the money and gave it to Shen Xuanqing.

Shen Xuanqing was puzzled, frowned slightly and said in confusion, "What are you doing for me? Didn't you bring a small cloth bag with you?"

Lu Gu thought he was going to put it all in a cloth bag, and then turn it over when it was sold out, and hurriedly did as instructed.

Just as he was talking, someone came to see the wild things, so Shen Xuanqing had to stop talking and turned around to get busy.
