"What's the matter with Qilang?"
Luo Yong also heard that this gentleman wanted to talk to him. Just like when Si Niang and the others were hungry and wanted to have a meal, she could ask him if she was hungry. Brother, did you take the opportunity to ask him.
"I am worried about the disagreement." Du Xi sighed leisurely.
"If the things Qilang had planned were not harmonious, it would not be achieved?" Luo Yong asked him.
"..." Du Qilang thought for a while and said, "That's not the case."
"Since that's the case, why should Qilang be worried?" Luo Yong said with a smile.
"..." Du Qilang touched his chin, and for a moment he couldn't remember why he was worried just now. Since those people couldn't stop him, why did he still worry about this?
In this way, the smoke disappeared.
Du Qilang was in a good mood and talked too much. Along the way, he talked a lot about the interesting things in Chang'an City to Luo Yong. Many of them had something to do with Luo Yong.
"... An old man thought that the peony cushion Meng Lang was not allowed to be used by the juniors in the family. His daughter-in-law wanted to use it, so she stole his son. His son couldn't do it. So she came to me to give him advice, and then I gave their old lady a cushion. In less than two days, his son and daughter-in-law were all used. The family was very peaceful, but there was nothing to do."
"Recently, many people in Chang'an City are swaying on the streets wearing wooden clogs, just to see the pair of wool socks on their feet. Tsk, I'm really not afraid of the cold..."
"Sometimes ago, Yu Shishi Liu wanted to build a kang at his home. His family came out to find a craftsman. When they asked your disciples how much a kang cost, your disciples said that a kang cost ten cents. When his family heard that it was so cheap, how could it be worthy of his family's wealthy family? So they asked someone else to ask. Finally, they found a group of craftsmen with bright clothes and neat appearance. They said that they specially set up kangs for noble people, and a kang costs one hundred yuan."
"As a result, the old lady in his family only slept for one night and was not good. She invited the doctor to see it. The doctor probably saw a lot of such cases. When he went there, he touched the kang first. He was startled and screamed, "How could you sleep on the kang? You obviously put people on the fire and roast them! It's not good to keep them in heat? You also have to burn firewood at all times, and it's cool and roasted. Which old lady can withstand this?' Hahaha! When we arrived, the kangs had to be dismantled and re-plastered."
"My disciples have never caused any trouble in Chang'an, right?" Luo Yong said with concern.
"Where can it be? The saint knows that this kang is from you Lishi County, and that the skills of your disciples are authentic. He specially sent palace servants to the public to find them to enter the palace to serve as the Emperor's Emperor's Kang. No one in the palace said that your disciple's kang is not good at using it. At this time, who is still in the trouble of finding this?" Du Qilang said.
After Xuanwu Gate, Li Yuan retreated. He has been living in the Tai Chi Hall with Li Shimin for many years, and the relationship between father and son is naturally somewhat subtle.
The process of Li Shimin's throne at that time has already been criticized by many people. Later, he also paid great attention to the shaping of his own image. No matter what the actual relationship between father and son, on the surface, today's saints are really filial and meticulous. At this time, he set up a kang for his own son. Those who are knowledgeable and tactful naturally say that this kang is very good and the most authentic in the world.
Luo Yong was also much more at ease when he learned that his disciples could have such a layer of guarantee in Chang'an City.
After all, people in small places have never seen much in their lives. When they first went to Chang'an City, they were afraid that they would cause some trouble, or they would be involved in some complicated relationships inexplicably, and they were called cannon fodder. Now it seems that he was too worried.
The two of them walked along the way and said that when they met Xie Kui who had sent Tamura Masato Zou Lizheng and returned, it was almost dark.
"There is still a long way to go to Xipo Village, but I want me to give you a gift?" Du Xi stretched his waist and got off the donkey.
"No, you can go back to the city by yourself." Luo Yong said.
When they said goodbye on both sides, Luo used a donkey cart to continue walking towards Xipo Village, while Du Xi and his servant drove the cart to Lishi County.
Although Xipo Village is also good, it is not as serious as the guest house. It is very inconvenient to live in Luojiayuan. The food is not as rich as the city. Recently, even the watery vegetables are sold in Lishi County. It is warm pot, sake, barbecue and fried noodles, and a can of Dongpo pork from Xipo Village comes from time to time. It is really good to eat. No wonder Yan Liulang stayed here for a while and then swelled like the noodles-fried cake.
"Why didn't Langjun go into the city? He ran here instead?" After the carriage ran for a distance, Xie Kui asked Du Xi.
"My husband, I feel a little lonely today and want to find someone to talk to you." Du Qilang said quietly.
"Why is Luo Sanlang okay?" Xie Kui asked him.
"It's so good, I don't worry at all that he will stab me in the back." Since childhood, growing up in the sword light and shadow. For Du Qilang, as long as he doesn't stab the knife in the back, that's the best. There are only a few people in this world who will not betray me. Don't you see that even Chang'e stole Houyi's immortal medicine and ascended by himself.
"My husband should be careful." Hearing what he said, it seemed that he was not wary of Na Luo Sanlang, which was not a good thing.
"I know." Du Qilang sighed again.
"There are three cans of Dongpo pork in the car. I just bought it from the Na Luo family yard. I wrapped it in fur and put it in the car. It should still be hot now." Seeing that his husband's mood seemed to be not very good, Xie Kui said.
"It's still eating." Du Qilang replied to him.
"..." It turned out that he had already eaten it. Xie Kui sniffed and told me, "Leave some for me."
"To be honest, you've eaten there just now?"
“Not.”
"Will I believe you?"
"If you don't believe me, you will ask."
On the other side, when the master and servant walked away, Luo Yong quickly took out a few darker coral velvet blankets from the space, put two on the car board, two on the legs, and two on the body.
These blankets were all factory orders he collected for ten yuan per person. Some were extra goods, while others were defective products. In those years, such coral velvet was very low. Just this was twenty yuan per person. Those fellow villagers didn't think it was cheap. Fortunately, they didn't think it was cheap, otherwise there wouldn't be any left in Luo Yong's space now.
Wrap yourself up like a wool ball, then take out a box of white rice, a box of boiled meat, hot soup and hot rice, and then some spicy food. After eating a few bites of the meal, you will immediately feel hot.
"An...An..." Smelling the fragrance, Wu Gong was no longer at ease.
"What, do you want to eat?" Luo Yong jumped out of the car with a blanket, picked up two balls of rice with chopsticks and put them in his palm, and fed them to Wupeng: "Eat it, eat it, this is white rice, and even Si Niang and the others have no need to eat it."
Five pairs were panting and chewing rice, and they ate very sweetly. When Luo Yong saw him gasping, he reached out to smooth his neck: "I'm really tired today. I'm fine. If I'm tired, please walk slowly."
"Ann..." Wu said with a corresponding sound, but I don't know if I understand it.
Luo Yong thought about it and then touched a carrot from the space for it to eat: "This is a good thing, and ordinary donkeys cannot eat it."
"..." When the five couples saw the red thing, they didn't dare to put their mouths. They just smelled the strange fragrance. They couldn't help but turn their noses over and smell them again.
"Do you eat or not? I'll put it away if I don't eat." Luo Yong said.
"Crack!" After biting five to one bite, it was crisp and sweet, which was indeed very consistent with the taste of the donkey. After a few bites, I bit the carrots so that only the small piece on my head. Luo Yong refused to give it to him, so I put it into the space, planning to put it in the ground and see everything when I have the chance.
Each person and donkey filled their stomachs, drained water, and took a break and continued on the road. It was late at night before finally reaching the entrance of Xipo Village. Luo Yong collected all the blankets when he approached the entrance of the village.
She endured the low temperature that could freeze people to death, shook and hurried on the donkey cart. When the car got on the slope in front of his house, before he knocked on the door, Ernie came out, but she was waiting. She couldn't sleep peacefully without seeing Luo Yong come back. She was lit with an oil lamp and knitted sweater while listening to the movement outside.
"Why did you come back so late?" Er Niang quickly pulled the donkey cart to the yard. On the other side, Peng Er had already closed the gate of the yard.
"I didn't go to Xiaohe Village first this morning, so I could come back so quickly." Luo Yong got out of the car and ran to the grocery store, covering his ears while running. He must not have frostbite in his ears. He had grown these two ears when he was a child, and he had blisters one by one, and would still run water after it broke. It was very itchy in spring.
"I see that Tamura Masato came back before dark." He handed over the work of unloading the truck and feeding animals to Peng Er, and Ernie also came to the grocery store.
"I happened to meet Du Xi and his servant, and they were kind enough to give it to me." Luo Yong said.
"If I had known this, if you didn't drive the donkey cart, you would have been able to come back in the cart." Luo Erniang first made him a bowl of corn porridge to warm his stomach, and then asked him, "But I'm hungry, can I cook some ginger for you?"
"Okay." The things I just ate were almost digested, and Luo Yong felt that he could still eat a big bowl of ginger.
When Peng Er saw that his brother and brother were talking, she had nothing to do with her. After saying hello, she went to bed first. She had to get up tomorrow morning to cook pig food.
Because the Luo family has sufficient ingredients and is not afraid of eating too much of those pigs, Peng Er added another meal to them in the past two days, pressing them three times a day, just pointing out that they can grow faster and they can produce more pork when they are slaughtered.
When Luo Erniang was cooking, Luo Yong slowed down, then washed his hands and faces with hot water, and soaked his feet.
As soon as the foot was inserted into the hot water, goose bumps all over his body, and the air conditioner inside his body was stimulating, and within a short while, his body became warm.
After the second wife cooked the ginger, she went to Luo to use the house to help him cook the kang. When he finished eating the linger and went to bed, the kang was already warm.
The next day, without any surprise, Luo Yong went to bed late again. When he got up, Peng Er fed the pigs.
For those two Siniang Wuro, Baba brought him corn porridge and lard to stewed pickles. Some sliced frozen tofu was added to the pickles. The lard was made of fat from the pork belly. Because his pigs were well raised, there was no odor. Their family ate this oil recently.
When he and his friends went to Lishi County together yesterday, Luo Yong asked Zou Lizheng how his pig looked now, but he was willing to kill it?
Judging from Zou Lizheng's reaction, he was still reluctant to let go. Luo Yong told him that if he killed the meat he had given to Zou Lizheng now, he could buy it twice the market price. Zou Lizheng was also a little moved, but he did not agree directly.
Some things cannot be done with money. It is like crops growing well in the fields. You say I will give you the money for buying grain now, and you will pull them all out, so many farmers are reluctant to let go.
The same is true for raising pigs. It is the time to grow well. Why do you have to kill them now? Many people can't resist the bend in their hearts.
If Zou Lizheng and the others refused to kill pigs in recent days, the Luo family's pigs would not last long.
There are also pigs in Xipo Village, but they all bought pig seedlings from their own home. Luo Yong had to buy pork with them, so they would spend more money and food.
Luo Yong thought about it, he should have been walking around the village these days to see what the villagers mean and what the price is about.
As a result, when he walked around, the pig price had not been found out, but he heard a little gossip about Luo spending 200 yuan a month to ask Lin Wulang and Aunt Luo to help him. They all said that the Lin family was crazy about money, but it was 200 yuan a month for drought and flood. It didn't require any investment and they didn't need to do heavy work. Why would the Lin couple be embarrassed?
"I mentioned this matter first, and I will not do the business of the two elders of the Lin family." Luo Yong saw that the news was wrong, so he quickly stood up and explained.
If it is allowed to develop, wouldn’t it be necessary to push Aunt Luo to the forefront? If the two elders of the Lin family were criticized for this matter, needless to say, they would definitely have a lot of dissatisfaction with the aunt. At that time, wouldn’t the conflict between the Lin family become a conflict between Aunt Luo and the two elders?
As for how this evil wind blows up, needless to say, Luo Yong also knows it in his heart.
If the Lin family didn't take it outside to talk about what he discussed with the two elders of the Lin family, who would know?
This matter cannot be separated from Lin Dalin's two houses. In Luo Yong's opinion, they clearly wanted to take the opportunity to find a case and arouse the dissatisfaction of the two elders of the Lin family with Aunt Luo. At that time, Luo Yongruo jumped out to stand up for Aunt Luo and then picked up the matter of dividing the family. Wouldn't their two houses be picked up ready?
Even if they didn't have the plan so carefully, they at least they were determined to mess up the waters with this matter. As for the situation of the Goro and his wife, they didn't care.
"Sanlang is also quite kind." To put it bluntly, you are stupid, are you a sucker?
"My work is to make date cake and cook Dongpo pork. If I change it, how can I feel at ease? The Lin family also has many work. Originally, I was worried that if my sister and brother-in-law were missing, they would be too busy. The two elders of the Lin family were very pleased and said that I was short of staff, just asking the aunt Wulang to come and help, but they never mentioned the money and food to me. Why did this come to the village and become like this?" Luo Yong's words were not completely fake. He found this matter first, and he proposed the wages himself.
"There is so much 200 yuan a month, but the two elders didn't refuse?" After all, the villagers still felt that the 200 yuan a month was really too much.
Although they have earned so much in making tofu recently, sometimes even more than that, the transaction of tofu is also seasonal. How can they earn so much in spring and summer?
In addition, it is hard and tiring. The elderly and children at home have to help. They care about the business at home and have to worry about it all day long. That is comparable to Luo Yong's work that costs 200 yuan a month to ensure income from drought and flood, and it is not hard and there is no capital.
"You said you gave me more, but I still felt that I gave me less." Luo Yong said, "Isn't it easy to raise a child? The two elders of the Lin family worked hard to raise their son to such a big age. Now they hired me for 200 yuan a month. Although they are at the entrance of the village, they are not as good as they were at home as they were before. When I think of this, I feel very guilty about them. Besides, my sister and brother-in-law are both strong and able to work. They work at home on weekdays and earn no less. The 200 yuan is really not too much."
How could the villagers not know that raising children is not easy? Especially at this time, some old people present, and when they think of the hard years before, they feel a lot of emotion in their hearts, and someone immediately said:
"It's really not easy for the old couple of the Lin family. In that age, I will support four sons and one daughter. Now that I'm older, I should enjoy the blessings of my children and grandchildren."
After such an explanation, this matter was basically revealed. Although some villagers still complained about the salary of 200 liters, Luo Sanlang was voluntarily, and it was not the two elders of the Lin family who forced them to do so.
Besides, those two old men have worked hard all their lives, and now they are old. Even if their behavior is a little inappropriate, the younger generation should be more considerate and tolerant. Since then, the remarks in the village have changed direction, and everyone says that the Lin family’s marriage is really good.
When Lin's mother heard this, she wiped tears in the room. She said to Lin's father:
Chapter completed!
