MTL - The Sweet Little Fulang-Chapter 218
"What did you say?" Shen Xuanqing thought that he had misheard, or that he might have misunderstood.
Lu Gu smiled and said, "I'll be back in two and a half months at most. I'll buy a good horse and sell some hides. The money from selling the hides should be enough to sell the horses, maybe there's more."
There are many men who have traveled south and north. It's not that he doesn't know. Just now Shen Xuanqing said that he would be away for a few months. He was a little flustered, and he was not willing. But when he heard about Shen Xuanqing's plans, he wanted to take him and Ling Geer to the Saibei grassland. And Jiangnan.
He didn't have any insight or ideas, and he was even a fool. He knew that, let alone far away, even Fenggu Town used to be far away, and the people and things in the town were out of reach in his eyes.
Now, however, he has come to Jixing Town, which is farther away.
Shen Xuanqing has the energy and knowledge. If their Linger has been to many places in the future, his knowledge will naturally become broader, and he will definitely be more promising than his Eminem.
"When you come back, tell me about the scenery on the road. The mark doesn't mean that there is any milk over there. The dried meat he brought is delicious. Remember to buy some when you come back. You should also bring dried milk. It will be cold after autumn. It shouldn't be bad on the road, pick a good horse and a more tame one, Linger will definitely ride it."
Lu Gu added: "Wait a few years, how old Lingge'er is, and I will go out to see it. You have recorded a place with good scenery on the way and take us there."
He was cowardly and useless, and never thought of walking out of this acre of land, but now, with Shen Xuanqing here, he is no longer alone, so what is there to dare.
Shen Xuanqing originally wanted to ask him why he nodded again, but when he heard these words, he didn't know what to feel in his heart, when it came to this, it was meaningless to ask, and he agreed: "Okay, I will definitely take you out, we will all go. "
Going out is a big deal. Once Shen Xuanqing leaves, there will be one less person working at home, so he must make some plans.
Life at home is getting better and better, and it is the year of peace. Wei Lanxiang does not want her son to go to the north.
She couldn't persuade her, and after thinking for a while, she went to find Lu Gu.
Shen Xuanqing brought Lu Gu and the child back early this morning. The shop will open tomorrow and leave in the afternoon.
Seeing her second son talking to his elder brother while feeding the mules in the backyard, she waved and said, "Guzi, come, mother, talk to you."
Lu Gu originally held Ling Ge'er next to him and listened, and he was about to go over when he heard the words, but Ling Ge'er stretched out his arms for his uncle to hold him, and he gave the child to Shen Yaoqing.
"Mother, what's the matter?" He sat down and poured two cups of tea, one cup for Wei Lanxiang.
Wei Lanxiang didn't mean to drink tea at the moment, she looked at her son behind her, and she shouldn't be able to hear it, so she said: "Second boy is leaving, why don't you persuade him, there is food and drink at home, and there is no shortage of food and drink. Qianliang, he wants to eat meat and drink, but if he doesn’t have anything, why bother to find fault.”
Originally for this.
Lu Gu was dumbfounded and didn't answer right away. In the end, he let Shen Xuanqing go. He couldn't think of what to say.
"It's not for other people. Brother Ling is at home. Why would he leave the child and go out?" Wei Lanxiang was a little more knowledgeable than the woman next to him, but the farthest place he had been to was Yuqingfu City. It's come far enough.
They are okay here, they are all acquaintances nearby, and everything is easy to do. Going north, there are robbers such as bandits and bandits, how can you not worry.
In this day and age, Taiping is nothing but compared to when she was young.
Seeing her frowning, Lu Gu looked very disapproving, he thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Mother, going out is not necessarily a bad thing, Erqing said that the horses in the north are cheap, and wanted to buy one for us, and the carpenter in the town also Okay, let's get a car, and I'll take you out in a big carriage later."
Every time the sister-in-law persuades her mother, she picks up the words that make her happy, and he has learned a bit because he is an elder, although he has never had the dignity of a mother-in-law, but how dare he say that he let Shen Xuanqing go and changed his mind. It's not true, and it's not false.
Sure enough, Wei Lanxiang paused and seemed to be thinking.
She had ridden in the Gu family's carriage last winter. The car was completely different. The carriage was ventilated from all sides. The big carriage was blocked by the car, so the wind would not blow directly on the face.
"You can't buy a horse anywhere, you have to go out." She spoke again, a little weaker than before.
It happened that Shen Xuanqing came from the backyard with the child in his arms, heard this sentence, guessed what they were talking about, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, the mark has been running back and forth several times, there will be no accident when you follow the horse team, go to On the way to the north, those bandits and bandits are all prepared, and Boss Qiu has spent a lot of money, so he will not be robbed when he follows him."
"I also want to go out and have a look. Dad didn't always say when he was there, the man's ambition is in all directions, and now the son has ambition, but this year, I will go to see the world, buy some fur from a horse dealer, and wait for next year to go up the mountain to fight foxes. If you make money, you won't go out."
Shen Shunfu had all moved out. How could Wei Lanxiang stop her? She was a little unhappy at first, but Shen Xuanqing shoved Linger into her arms. Her little Shuanger looked so distressed, and she was still a nanny. The milk shouted, she smiled happily, hugged her grandson and played with her, and didn't care about her son.
It's too early, and the two of them only talked about it with their family when they came back this time. As for the rest, they will discuss it slowly.
A few days later, Luo Biao, who had been out for more than two months, came back with the Qiu family horse team and ran to Jixing Town as usual.
He came back in the middle of the morning, the sun came out, and Lu Gu was washing Ling Ge'er's hair in the courtyard.
The child squatted in a small ball by the tub. Because it was really hot, Lingjun only wore a red apron and trousers. The exposed white and tender arms were like lotus root joints, and the meat was round and round, and two small hands were constantly on the tub. He stirred the water inside, and stretched out his hand to beat it, and the water splashed, making his own face all over, but he couldn't stop laughing.
In such a mess, Lu Gu's clothes were inevitably wet, and even his hair was wet by the splashing water. He was helpless and washed his hair first according to Linger.
Now the child can run and jump. No matter how hot the weather is, he will never stop. He seems to have an endless mental head. Every day he plays with sweat all over his head. He smelled it last night, and he smelled it. Lingjun is playing.
"Close your eyes, and you're done." He took a wild bath bead from the small basket next to him, and rubbed white foam in his hand.
Children love to play in the water in summer, and they can cool down. Brother Ling is still obedient, so he closed his eyes tightly when he closed his eyes, and his small faces were tightly packed together. Lu Gu couldn't help laughing when he saw it.
"Amu told you to open your eyes and then open them again, otherwise your eyes will hurt, do you know that?" He rubbed the white foam on Ling Ge'er's hair and said while washing.
"Yeah!" Ling Ge'er hummed hard, but he was very well-behaved.
One big and one small squatted in the courtyard and tossed for a while, and finally finished washing, and there was not much water left in the wooden basin, and it was all thrown to the ground.
Lu Gu simply asked Ling Ge'er to stand up, not to play with the water at the bottom of the basin with his **** pouted, and took a cloth towel to wipe the child's hair.
"Alright, alright, Eminem."
Linggeer was thinking about playing, and usually speaking, swallowing a few words is not easy, but when he is in a hurry, he speaks quickly.
Lu Gu wiped him for a while to save the water from running down his head, and then he patted Linger's fleshy little **** and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go play, don't go out, dry your hair in the courtyard. ."
There was still some water at the bottom of the wooden basin, and Ling Geer squatted down to play again.
Seeing him happy, Lu Gu was about to scoop up another ladle of warm water. The sun was too hot today, and it would be cooler to play in the water. He never thought that "sister-in-law" would suddenly sound at the door.
The good boy lying in the shade suddenly got up and shouted outside.
He looked up and saw that it was Luo Biao.
"slim Shady."
Brother Ling also saw the big man walking in from outside the courtyard gate, and was so frightened that he hid behind Lu Gu.
Luo Biao didn't shave, his clothes were dirty all the way, and his voice was loud. If it wasn't for an acquaintance he knew, even Lu Gu would have to be vigilant.
"Good boy." He shouted. Good boy also recognized Luo Biao and stopped barking. He asked again, "When did you come back?"
Luo Biao carried a shackle on his shoulders and a burden, and said with a smile, "I just came back today, and I just went to the shop."
He put the sack and the bag on the stone table in the courtyard, unpacked the bag, there was a clean cloth bag inside, unwrapped it was a bundle of jerky, and said in a loud voice, "It's hot, it's hard to bring anything else, so I got some. Dried meat."
When Brother Ling heard that he had something to eat, he stuck out his little head from behind Lu Gu's legs, but he didn't dare to go forward, he just looked at it from a distance.
Seeing this, Luo Biao asked with a smile, "Why, don't you recognize Uncle?"
He has been gone for almost three months, and the child is not even two years old. It is common to forget about people.
Lu Gu asked with a smile, "Have you eaten? I'll cook. I have a few eggs at home. I'll fry them for you."
Luo Biao was not polite, nodded and said, "Then I will trouble my sister-in-law."
Lu Gu paused for a moment, but he was fine, Luo Biao looked a little fierce with a beard on his face, and Lingjun was obviously a little scared, so he said, "I boiled water, originally to wash my child's hair, and I finished washing it now, There is still in the pot, you can rest for a while and wash it raw."
Luo Biao scratched his head, looked down at his slovenly appearance, and he was a little embarrassed. He smiled and said yes.
"I'll ask you Sister Hong and Brother Xiaoshan to come and play with you, okay?" Lu Gu looked down at Brother Ling and asked.
Unlike Zhao Er of Rou Dun Dun, the younger Ling Jun was not so courageous. He held on to Eminem's pants, but it was too hot for the children to follow the fire in the kitchen.
"it is good."
Ling Ge'er agreed in a soft voice.
So Lu Gu picked him up and said to Luo Biao, "I have tea. If you are hungry, put the cakes under the bamboo basket on the table and drink some."
"It's done." Luo Biao was packing his robes and luggage in front of the stone table. The sun was shining in the yard, so he simply took his things and sat down in the hall, drinking tea and cakes.
Xiaohong from the Liu family next door was playing with her younger brother Xiaoshan. Hearing Lu Gu calling her, the little girl gave a crisp promise and led her younger brother over to play. Lu Gu poured some water for them. It was hot and they would definitely be thirsty.
Luo Biao was sitting in the main room drinking tea. When he saw a few children, he said with a smile: "Come on, I have some jerky here, so I can grind my teeth."
Seeing that the children didn't dare to go over, Lu Gu went in and took a few sticks to share with them. The jerky was so firm that Linger couldn't bite at all, he was really grinding his teeth.
"Hide in the shade and play, don't run out." He told the three children before entering the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm watching here and don't let them run around." Luo Biao said while eating the cake.
"Okay." Lu Gu nodded with a smile, an adult was really more at ease when he was outside, so he went to cook.
