【】Chapter 11 【Part 34】(1/2)
It is also said that on the second day of Zuoxian County, the moment before leaving:
[The plan changes, Yongtingchen must follow. Do things safely, cooperate with the border guards. Protect your cousin and check your plans]
Pistol, bullet, Yongtingchen brings 1 set:
[The slingshots have always been sent to the border, thank you politely. The warlords fought in 1920, which led to too many problems. If so, the female family members in the family]
Mi Puqing's cousin, got up earlier:
[Crispy white flour pancakes, pack them in a cloth bag. Take out the stewed meat and cut them into large pieces to wrap them with old newspapers. The meat is carried early, and I bought it the day before. I can't hold it in summer, so I don't have to buy ice]
When I arrived at the train station, I realized the misunderstanding:
【I asked before, the answer is certain: Yes]
Didn't think much about it, both sides misunderstood:
[What the other party said about the morning, including the early morning. The first train passed by, at around 3 am]
One shift was returned that day, and you must wait in the afternoon:
[There is no choice but to walk back]
Mother and daughter cook together:
[Mung bean porridge, cold vegetables, crispy lard pancakes, fried pork skin with eggs and green onions, and large pieces of pork slices. Feng Shunong specially carried the meat, but it couldn't be stored in the hot weather. The old man strongly advised him to eat enough]
My cousin's name is 'qiao':
[Born in 1880, married in 1900. He has a peaceful and steady temperament and is a traditional woman. He is generally called Aunt Qiao and Aunt Qiao]
Leaving Zuohan County at around 16:00:
[1st room, seat. Aunt Qiao is dreaming, two men take turns dozing off]
After 0 a.m., arrive in Gongzhou:
[Look for a single gang, you will have 2 horses. 3 passengers, 1.5 cents on Anyou Street. If you don’t pay for the price in the middle of the night, the transaction will be completed]
It's easy to walk now, and there's nothing to say about it all the way:
【Aunt Qiao continued to doze off, two men were alert】
The grandfather of the two families went to bed early, and the two teenagers greeted him warmly:
【It's really tired, take a break】
At around 9 a.m., I found a Baiyang iron pot on the border:
[Taking ropes with straw, two brothers make homemade net bags. Holding pot]
Vegetable market, shops supply milk:
[At that time, glass bottles were in the 21st century, about 210 ml. In various regions and cities, there were no fixed bottle styles. There were large and small]
According to the shopkeeper, the bottle is based on the Gentile:
[What do you absorb...how much nutrients every day? I think you have to understand what the Gentile "ounces" is, it's really hard to make a difference]
I was dizzy when I heard it, so I just felt happy:
[Zero buy 1 bottle, 84-liter copper plate. Need to close the border and close the guard to half a pot]
Ask a question:
[This foreign thing has risen slowly (dialect: possible, price increase slowly)]
The shopkeeper's answer was honest:
[There are fewer people to buy, which is more expensive than water. The manufacturer understands]
Reed hand-woven large basket, made by two brothers:
【Buy eggs, fill them】
Passing by a certain money house and exchanging all kinds of small money:
[The coins of the Qing Dynasty are the same, and the coins of the Republic of China are the main ones]
Many face value. People live:
[It is rare for anyone to buy vegetables with silver dollars. Occasionally, the store doesn’t have a quota, what should I do? Ask me, do you have more? Or you can enjoy a little more. More directly, I’ll wipe it out. 1920, late June]
At that time, when large-scale commodity transactions were traded, many people were accustomed to counting “two”:
[Silver dollars, silver blocks, gold nuggets, silver ingots, gold ingots can all be used to test the quality and prevent copycats. However, gold is usually used as storage and remains unmoved easily, since ancient times.
Pockets of silver, broken gold:
[Strange shapes and vary in weight. In 1920, can you buy something? Yes. The best store, hawkers can't find it]
The weights and measures of the Qing Dynasty, and spoken language has always been following:
[For example, media advertisements, correspondence, family chat, unit gossip, neighborhood gossip]
For example, in 1920, the wife of Gongzhou told:
[Get some improvements, our mother comes over. Do you understand? Pull the cloth, buy some children... Put 10 hangings, don't mess around (improvement: decent meals. Come here: visit. Pull the cloth: buy cloth to make clothes. Put 10 hangings: bring 10 silver dollars. Pull the blind: It should be paid, but the money is not enough)]
The so-called 10 hangings, the 10 hangings of copper coins in the Qing Dynasty:
[The amount of currency exchange often changes. Only when the money in the Qing Dynasty could be used to run a rope. The copper plate of the Republic of China seemed to have no such function. Inertial thinking, the people understand it themselves]
After saying something off topic, press not to mention:
[Anyou Street. Zuoxian County brought cakes and meat. I didn't move on the road and was not hungry. The iron pot was hot and the table was set]
The beef before, homemade beef:
[Aunt Qiao helped out. The child is very sensible and diligent. He only said that he couldn't keep it hot, so he advised him to cut more meat. Wash raw vegetables and dip them in noodles sauce. Everyone drinks milk to save trouble]
Grandfather of the two families, radiant:
[Carry a cigarette and pour some yellow wine. The two children love to drink milk, and their little faces are very happy and chattering. The elders look at it and are happy]
Meanwhile, Muhuo Province Zuoxian County:
[Mipqing's cousin, born in 1901. He was called "Junyan" since childhood (Jun: pronunciation jùn, 4 tones. Juan: pronunciation xīn, 1 tones)
In the morning, Beifang. Siheyuan:
[Old elm bed is a rectangular box. The huge bed cover is solid all year round. Everyone knows that the old man is afraid of the cold and gets used to it]
The old man was muttering, Junxin was busy with work:
[Kang table. Lean meat porridge, not much, and light side dishes]
The old man asked:
【Child, what are your plans】
Junxin tells the truth:
[Your family is safe, go back to Jiang'an Dacheng. I already have my company and I have shares]
The old man really wants to untie the knot for this miserable woman:
【Rest, let’s talk】
With a sincere attitude, Junxin couldn't help but slow down:
【You said, I listen】
The old man paused, but his heartfelt words:
[You mother and daughter are good people, I have never seen them... live well. Some things are destined to be destined. Only when you reach your own mind will you understand that if you don’t say it, you will definitely be rich]
After hearing this, Junxin was silent:
【Sit down, sit down】
Unaware of it. Half an inch of facial muscles:
【Slow twitching. Strange】
A woman's eyes looked strange, and her pupils seemed to be in flames and rushed outward:
[I don't know why. I didn't notice the corners of my mouth, and a trace of desolation flew away. I can't say it]
Beech wood with cloud head and Ganoderma lucidum pattern Eight Immortals Table:
【1 meter long, 1 meter wide, 80 cm high. 1 pendulum on the desktop]
Pour yourself a cup of tea and wrap your hands:
[The legs were crossed tightly, and I thought it was winter. The upper body was forward and back, and the whole torso was gently swinging. The delicate fingers were desperately picking the cup]
The pendulum is tireless and boring beat:
【I don’t know how many years, I don’t know how many years it will be】
Gradually, the fire in the pupils went out a little bit:
【The eyes gradually softened. In the blink of an eye, the painting style suddenly changed】
