MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 208
The two found a secluded place in the corner and sat down. After ordering wine and food, Luo Biao said, "If you don't come to me, I will also come to you."
The guy made a pot of wine and poured it for the two of them. Shen Xuanqing raised his glass and touched him, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The hunter in Niujiazhuang knows that you have raised a lot of rabbits. Last winter, he also built a rabbit shack and raised a lot of rabbits. He heard that you sent them to the building. In the past few days, he asked someone to ask him for help and drink with the chef to deliver benefits. ."
After speaking, Luo Biao lowered his voice: "At the time when the chef paid the bill to the upstairs, a rabbit was 50 cents, and I bought our rabbit at least 45 cents. The one surnamed Niu sold to the chef for four. Ten Wen, grabbing business, I met Brother Shen who came back from you in the town two days ago. He told me that he might not send rabbits to the building. I didn't reply to the building. thing."
The relationship between the chef and Luo Biao is the same. Since there are greater benefits, naturally they will not let the money in hand run away.
Shen Xuanqing smiled and said, "It seems that it is God's will. If it can't be done, forget it. We won't fight with him.
Since he can see it, Luo Biao no longer cares, just drinking and drinking, it is a sigh.
"What's the matter?" Shen Xuanqing asked. When he saw Luo Biao in the alley just now, he saw that his face was not very good, his brows were sad, and he was absent-minded and lost when he walked to the tavern.
Xiao Er brought two dishes, a big elbow and a green mountain bamboo shoot mixed with fungus, and a plate of peanuts, one meat and one vegetable, and the two chatted while eating.
Luo Biao raised his head, Zier finished the wine in the wine cup with a sip, and said with a sigh, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, it's not that I'm too old, and I don't have a home yet, so I'm worried."
Shen Xuanqing picked up the jug to fill him up, and said, "If you don't dislike it, let my mother keep an eye on it for you to see if there is a suitable one, but I don't know what you want to choose, daughter-in-law or husband?"
Luo Biao smiled bitterly and said, "There is no difference between a wife and a husband. I have no reason to dislike it. It's just that I have a reputation for running errands in the building. Most of the children of good people don't want to hear it."
After drinking several glasses of wine, he was depressed and no one could tell him, but when he saw Shen Xuanqing, he couldn't stop talking, and said, "I'm good with Hongyao, I didn't know anything when I was young two years ago, and I told her that I will earn money in the future. We paid money to redeem her, and we lived together, but when we entered that kind of place, even if the madam only spent five taels to buy her, and wanted to redeem her, it turned out to be three hundred taels."
"Hongyao has a hard life, but she grew up well. When her parents die, she is just a gambler. What will happen to her? The girls who entered the building will be chained to it for the rest of their lives. How many of them can come out? I made a promise to make her happy for nothing."
Luo Biao looked stunned after speaking, and there seemed to be tears in his eyes.
Shen Xuanqing hadn't seen the red medicine in his mouth, so he listened without interruption, and poured another glass of wine.
"I know, I don't have that fate with her, she..." Luo Biao couldn't go on, so he just drank.
Seeing that his expression was wrong, Shen Xuanqing frowned and asked, "What happened?"
There was a knock between the wine cup and the table, Luo Biao choked up, raised his hand on his forehead to cover his eyes, and when he had calmed down, he said in a hoarse voice: "Three days ago, it was not yet dawn, I was not on duty that night, and was sleeping. She was woken up by the call, said her, and jumped off."
There was already a cry in the back, and he couldn't say anything else. He still covered his eyes with his hands, and could only hear a suppressed low cry.
Shen Xuanqing, who was about to take the wine cup, gave her a hand, but she didn't expect it to be like this. After a while, she asked, "Well, it's a good burial? I have some in my hand. If you don't have enough, just say it."
Luo Biao wiped away his tears, put down his hands, and said, "She once put some silver money with me, and she saved it with the madam on her back. I have some of it myself. I bought a coffin and buried it in the south."
Outside the town of Fenggu Town is a mass of burial mounds, most of which are the last places for prostitutes and beggars. Some of them don’t even have broken straw mats.
The prostitutes have no household registration, let alone family ancestral graves, so they can only be buried there.
"You don't know how happy she was when I told her that I wanted to redeem her." Luo Biao looked stunned and said to himself, "When she secretly gave me the money, let me save it for her, In the future, we can buy a house, maybe even a few acres of land. Although she has been in the building for several years, she still remembers the weaving and sewing. Let me farm the land and make firewood to earn more money, so she can buy back the cloth so that she can give it to me. Make new clothes."
He suddenly laughed again and said, "I don't know her craftsmanship yet? Even a handkerchief embroidered secretly can't be seen as a pair of mandarin ducks."
After laughing, he opened his mouth and was stunned, the tears in his eyes became more and more obvious, and when he regained his senses, he wiped away the tears and said, "I only have money in my eyes, I know that even if I collect three hundred taels, I will not be able to bring her out. ."
"When you look good, you don't live badly in the building, but just because you look good, it's more difficult to redeem yourself. She also knows that, so she finds short-sightedness."
Shen Xuanqing patted his shoulder for comfort.
After a jug of wine was eaten, the sadness and grief were said, and his heart was no longer so depressed. Luo Biao wiped his face, picked up the jug and saw that it was empty, so he called Xiao Er to make another jug.
"It was said to be drinking, but I ate most of it." He said with a smile.
"It's okay." Seeing his ugly smile, Shen Xuanqing sighed in his heart and asked, "Then what are your plans in the future?"
Luo Biao took a bite of the meat with his chopsticks and said, "The old lady has raised her eyebrows and raised her eyebrows at me these past few days. I guess I won't be able to stay in the building anymore. It's better to come out. Squint at me behind my back."
The guy poured a drink for them, Shen Xuanqing raised his head and finished drinking, and said, "If you don't have a place to go, there are many houses in my hometown, if you don't dislike it, you can live with peace of mind. ."
"Second brother Shen is kind to me, but I really can't handle it. Yesterday, I heard Mr. Qiu say that they are going to sell horses in the north. It will take two months after they leave. When they are so old, it is time to go out and meet the world."
Luo Biao took a sip of wine and said: "The caravan is recruiting people. I have no great prospects in my life. It's okay to be a thug to **** the delivery. This trip is a long way and I earn a little more than the building."
Now that he had an idea, Shen Xuanqing didn't force him to stay and asked him, "When will you leave?"
"Early the day after tomorrow." Luo Biao replied.
Shen Xuanqing raised his glass: "Okay, I will practice this for you, and come back to Jixing Town to find me."
"Definitely." Luo Biao finished, and the two drank it.
In the afternoon, after the hottest time of noon, the number of people on the street gradually increased.
"Auntie, my man is not here. I have to take the child and see the shop again. This chicken can't be killed." Lu Gu hugged Linger, who had just cried, and took out the hen with the other hand from the cage.
When the old woman at the door heard this, she frowned and said, "How come I'm not here for a while? If I don't come out to buy chickens, I'll save my hands."
Lu Gu said with a smile, "I'm really sorry, he went out."
"Forget it, forget it, don't." The old woman was unhappy and left.
He wasn't annoyed either, since he didn't want it, he put the hen in the cage again.
The place in the shop is small. Brother Ling is used to staying in his old home and new house. He likes open and bright places. After staying with him for a long time in the shop, he wants to go out. The brother became angry and cried.
He walked out of the door and looked at the street, but Shen Xuanqing hadn't come back. Thinking of Brother Ling's temper, he probably didn't sleep in the afternoon, so he went back to the shop and hugged the child and patted him to sleep.
Came here this morning and brought a small quilt. After Linger fell asleep, he put the child on the bed. Half of it was enough to cover it.
He came out and sat in the front to rest, occasionally glancing in the crack of the door, for fear that the child would roll off the bed.
Fortunately, not long after, Shen Xuanqing came back.
Lu Gu hurriedly poured tea, Shen Xuanqing sat down and said, "The pig is tied in the backyard. I will bring it to kill tomorrow morning. After entering the town, I will shout along the road, saying that the pig will be killed tomorrow."
If you want to do business, you have to put down your face. He shouted all the way along the street, even if no one agreed, and the news of the pig killing spread, people who wanted to buy would naturally come to see it.
"One chicken was sold, and an aunt came over to kill the chicken. Brother Ling was not good, and cried as soon as he put it down. I could only tell her that she couldn't kill it, and she didn't want it." Lu Gu also sat down and smiled at the same time. He talks about today's events.
"Don't forget it." Shen Xuanqing put down the tea bowl: "Where's the child?"
"Sleep, keep it in the room." Lu Gu asked him again: "Are you hungry? Have you eaten at noon?"
"Eat, what about you two?" Shen Xuanqing agreed with a smile.
"After eating a bowl of noodles, I asked for an extra poached egg. I ate a small half of it for Brother Ling, and then gave it milk fruit." Lu Gu smiled. Now he is used to staying in Jixing Town, even if he is alone, would be too nervous.
"That's good." Shen Xuanqing was relieved, he paused and said, "I won't send rabbits to the brothel in the future, I have already told Biaozi."
"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded. If you don't send it, you won't send it. There are shops that can make money.
Shen Xuanqing was a little hesitant at first, but Lu Gu was not an outsider, so he whispered to him about the Niujiazhuang hunter and Hongyao.
Lu Gu and Luo Biao were actually not very familiar with each other, and they didn't talk much, but Shen Xuanqing said that Luo Biao was a good person, so he believed it.
He had never seen Hongyao, but after listening to it, he knew that she must be a good girl.
"Guzi, do you still have any eggs? Weigh a few for me. There are really many people eating scrambled eggs today." Mrs. Zhao from the noodle restaurant next door was wearing an apron, and she shouted before she even walked.
"Okay." Lu Gu hurriedly agreed, got up and asked her how many she wanted.
Life and death are impermanent in the world, cry a few times and sigh a few times, and you always have to continue living your life when you look back.
The mule kicked and turned into the back alley and stopped at the back door of the sixth house.
At the entrance of Pearl Alley, Ji Qiuyue turned in with Zhao'er in her arms. The front yard door was wide open. Before she entered the yard, the good boy got up from the ground with a whimper, and when she saw it, she wagged her tail and rubbed her tail.
"Sister-in-law." Lu Gu was making the bed in the east wing, when he heard dogs barking and Zhao'er's voice outside, he quickly came out.
"Da Qing came in from the back alley." Ji Qiuyue smiled.
"I'll open the door." Lu Gu hurried to the backyard.
Ji Qiuyue put down Zhaoer and let him run on the ground, and the boy immediately came to play with Zhaoer.
Shen Xuanqing wanted to go hunting in the mountains and earn extra money. It was not good to leave Lu Gu and the children alone in the town, and there must be someone to look after the butcher shop. After he went for several days, only Shen Yaoqing came over.
Shen Yaoqing is a man. In order to avoid suspicion, he had to pull her and Zhao'er together. He also came to stay with Lu Gu for a few days to relieve his boredom.
It was like this last time. She was familiar with the door and the road. She went into the east wing to take a look, and went in to make the bed herself.
