Anyway, the silver that Zhou Chengkang brought with him bought snacks and fabric embroidery thread for her and her children.
"It's a lot of money." Zhou Chengkang led Xi Yu and whispered, "So many people live in the inn eating and drinking Lazar, and all the silver that the older brother picked up was returned. Because some of them were bought by them. After buying jewelry, my sister-in-law went to buy jewelry. It is said that she bought it for seven or eight taels of silver. In the end, she got four taels of silver. It took about 20 taels before and after."
"They should have a lot left earlier, and later they sold the yard..."
Li Qinghe raised his eyebrows, "Should there be more left?"
"Even if there are leftovers, there shouldn't be too many." Zhou Chengkang said casually, "They have craftsmanship. As long as the guys are still there, they will definitely not die of starvation."
This is also true, that tofu can make a lot of money in a year.
The atmosphere was not bad, and Mei was very happy. Although the money was spent, he was saved. Zhang Haiyao was also very happy. This time she went to the county seat from the Zhang family and stayed home for two days, and then she could continue to come and go again. Li Qingmiao doesn't matter, but it's always good to come back safely after having been there for nearly two months. The only unhappy person is probably Zhou Boss.
He huddled in the corner and ate silently. He didn't say much, gobbled it up, his whole body was much thinner, and he should have suffered a lot.
When someone asks, he just answers and never speaks actively.
It doesn't matter if you don't like to talk, but after so much effort to save people back, there is no thank you, and my heart is always frustrated.
However, this is my elder brother, what else can I do?
At most, there will be less contact in the future.
After a meal, Li Qinghe helped clean up the dishes, and then planned to go home.
However, there was a sudden quarrel in the main room. It was Zhou's mother's voice, angrily and puzzled, "No, what are you doing if you don't go?"
Then there was Boss Zhou’s rough voice, “I’m farming. Anyway, after the separation, those lands are enough to feed our family.”
When the two of Li Qinghe came in, they saw Mei's face in the house crying, and Xili beside him was also shocked. This child has been taken by Mei's recently. After going to the county town, so many people together did not treat him badly. He was also infected with that kind of nervous atmosphere. At this time, he was so scared to cry, his eyes were red.
When Mei met, he hugged him, and the mother and son began to cry.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Chengkang asked aloud, "It's a good thing that the eldest brother is back. This time it's a life of nine deaths, so you can live a good life in the future."
I haven't said this before. Fortunately, it was Lin Zhixian who met with Zhou Chengkang as security. Zhou Chengwen must have not killed anyone. This will be the thorough investigation. If a county magistrate who is not so patient is replaced, with the idea that he would rather kill by mistake than let it go, Boss Zhou will not be able to return at all.
You know, those two robbers were sentenced to be executed at the end of Autumn. If Lin Zhixian hadn't been sitting on it, he was already in death row waiting for the autumn to be executed.
Still not allowed to collect corpses!
Boss Zhou originally stood at the table with a serious face and confronted Zhou's mother, but suddenly squatted down, holding his head and crying.
The family of three cried, and Zhou's eyes were red.
Zhang Haiyao quietly touched Li Qinghe's side and said in a low voice, "Just now, my sister-in-law explained that I started selling tofu in the morning, and my eldest brother is not willing."
Boss Zhou over there howled, "As soon as I went to the street, so many people stared at me! Some even came up and asked me if I had murdered? They said I had been in prison for two months...I can't bear it, people They say I am a thief!"
Hearing what he said, Li Qinghe realized that he probably couldn't accept everyone's strange gazes.
But in fact, people are just curious.
Live your own life, just after a while.
She thinks so, and Zhou's mother over there has already said so, "It's just that I am going to make you out. It's not that I want to force you out, but if you don't go out, others will be more curious to ask questions. If they ask, you just say it. That thick-skinned man, who has been in prison for two months, is still a boastful capital. Why is it so difficult to accept when he gets here?"
"When you picked up those packs of silver in the first place, didn't you think there would be today?"
"Don't mention the silver." Elder Zhou shouted loudly, "The thing I regret most in my life is picking up those packages of silver!"
"You regret that things have happened, and I didn't ask you to pick them up." Zhou Mu was not afraid of him, "what's the use of you being murderous with me? Have the ability to go out and be brutal at others by yourself!"
She looked at the mother and son who were crying in their arms, and scolded, "Mei Hua, you make tofu for him tomorrow morning. If you don't go, get out of me. See if you have nothing to eat or drink, do you want Face? It’s just idle for me to see!"
Li Qinghe secretly backed out and went home.
"Big Brother is still embarrassed?" I was quite surprised.
But on another thought, the matter did not fall to him, no one could say that he was hypocritical. After all, two months in jail for the simple village, whether he is really guilty or not, is a piece of talk. And in the eyes of the villagers, there are no good people who are in prison.
"It will be fine after a while." Zhou Chengkang disapproved.
Zhou Mu's words were correct, he didn't want to go, it was before the end of the mountain and water.
The more at this time, the more magnanimous they must be. According to their previous intentions, they would like to send Xili to study in the town in the future. If Zhou Boss is now guilty, Xili will inevitably be a little eye-catching when he is in town. Besides, if you just farm the land, it would be very difficult to support a scholar.
The more open he is now, the less there will be no discussion in the future.
The next morning, because Zhou Chengkang did not come back for a long time, many things in the house needed to be purchased. The two went to the town early in the morning. When they left the village, they happened to meet Zhou's boss who was so slow and unwilling to go. The carriage came, and he hurriedly waved, "Old fourth, take me for a ride."
When others came up, Li Qinghe asked curiously, "Where is your carriage?"
Boss Zhou was silent, "Sold it."
In fact, she can’t be blamed. Zhou Chengkang hasn’t talked about it yet. In fact, when the husband and wife are alone, they don’t talk about other people’s homes, especially the two of them. They are not happy with each other. When talking about this, it’s not a problem for themselves. ?
Seeing him walking on the road now, Li Qinghe just asked casually. Seeing that Boss Zhou's complexion was not so good, she knew that she had said the wrong thing, and she was really embarrassed in the carriage. She even touched the outside to sit with the father and son.
When he arrived at the town’s entrance, he let down the people. Zhou Chengkang saved the carriage and took his wife and children to the street. Today’s big fair, the town is very lively, and the autumn harvest will start in a while. Now these people are busy preparing farm tools. Quite lively.
The family of three went shopping for half a day, bought things, and went to the jewelry shop in the town. It's not for shopping, but Xu's side asks them to send back a few letters every year.
Sometimes Li Qinghe would stop by when he came to town, and this time it was true.
Take it over and open it. Xu said in the letter that after the autumn harvest, she will take Bin'er back to live for a while.
Since she left the town, the mother and daughter have not seen each other for several years, and Li Qinghe missed it a little. The guy greeted them to look at the jewellery. The two refused with a smile. When Zhou Chengkang came back earlier, he helped her bring some, and the town was worse in terms of workmanship and style than in the county.
After going out, the family of three plans to go home. It is now noon, and there are a lot fewer people on the street. The two arrived at the entrance of the town and hugged Xiyu into the carriage. Li Qinghe circumvented the carriage from the other side. Suddenly saw a person squatting in front of her when she circumvented the carriage. She was so frightened that her heart was beating, clutching her chest to see clearly in front of her. People, she was a little speechless, "Brother, why are you still here?"
Wasn't it the boss squatting behind the carriage? The two buckets of tofu next to him were really full and didn't move at all.
"I..." Boss Zhou grabbed his hair, "I dare not go over."
Zhou Chengkang stretched out his hand to pull him, "Actually, you are too worried, there are really not so many people who know you." He picked up tofu and took him to the town's mouth. At this time, many people have to go home, and many people pass by. Seeing the tofu all around, after a few breaths, he sold half a bucket.
However, some people found out that it was Boss Zhou and asked him with a smile, "Is it all right? They say that there is no bed in the prison, is it true?"
Just curious, not malicious.
Boss Zhou felt better. Besides, what he had learned to do in business was to welcome people with a smile, not to be stern, and grinned reluctantly, and said, "If you don't have a bed, just sleep on hay."
Hearing this, the people around shook their heads, "That can be a crime, but fortunately it is summer. If it is winter, wouldn't it be cold to death?"
Zhou Chengkang only helped him a few breaths before returning home with his wife and children.
In the following days, Boss Zhou went there every day, from the embarrassment at the beginning to the calmness later. After a long time, I found that his mother's words were correct. People asked and asked, and their curiosity was satisfied, so they didn't ask.
In a blink of an eye, in mid-July, the villagers began to dig sweet potatoes. This thing is indeed full, but it is also strenuous and has to be digged out of the soil one by one. The advantage is that the excavated soil has been turned over.
Li Qinghe still invites people, because they can't do much.
Busy, the autumn harvest is over, the cellars and warehouses of each house are full, in fact, after the sweet potatoes, no one in the village is really hungry. Even the neighboring town, or even the neighboring county, can fill up the stomach even in difficulties with sweet potatoes.
The farmers have worked hard for a year, but in fact, it is to fill their stomachs.
In the autumn evening, Xu's carriage arrived.
After a few years of goodbye, Xu's eye corners have a few more wrinkles, and Bin'er has grown taller, and there seems to be no change.
It was already night when they arrived. Taking advantage of the moonlight to enter the door, Xu sent away the coachman, leaving behind a woman and Bin'er's book boy.
Let Chen prepare hot water for them to wash, and then go to the kitchen to cook for them.
After washing, Xu's muslin shirt leaned against the kitchen door, smiling as she watched her cooking, "Qinghe, I can't help you."
Li Qinghe was startled and couldn't help but laugh, "Mother, why would you say that?"
Xu did not answer this, smiling, "Fortunately, seeing you are doing well, I am relieved."
I can’t answer this. The mother and daughter have not seen each other for a few years and they are very close. When they say this, Li Qinghe broke the topic and asked with a smile, "How long do you plan to stay?"
"What? I'm going to chase me away as soon as I arrive?" Xu asked with a smile. After the question, he became more serious. "In the future, I may live in the village instead of the county seat."

It is now noon, and there are a lot fewer people on the street. The two arrived at the entrance of the town and hugged Xiyu into the carriage. Li Qinghe circumvented the carriage from the other side. Suddenly saw a person squatting in front of her when she circumvented the carriage. She was so frightened that her heart was beating, clutching her chest to see clearly in front of her. People, she was a little speechless, "Brother, why are you still here?"Wasn't it the boss squatting behind the carriage? The two buckets of tofu next to him were really full and didn't move at all."I..." Boss Zhou grabbed his hair, "I dare not go over."Zhou Chengkang stretched out his hand to pull him, "Actually, you are too worried, there are really not so many people who know you." He picked up tofu and took him to the town's mouth. At this time, many people have to go home, and many people pass by. Seeing the tofu all around, after a few breaths, he sold half a bucket.However, some people found out that it was Boss Zhou and asked him with a smile, "Is it all right? They say that there is no bed in the prison, is it true?"Just curious, not malicious.Boss Zhou felt better. Besides, what he had learned to do in business was to welcome people with a smile, not to be stern, and grinned reluctantly, and said, "If you don't have a bed, just sleep on hay."Hearing this, the people around shook their heads, "That can be a crime, but fortunately it is summer. If it is winter, wouldn't it be cold to death?"Zhou Chengkang only helped him a few breaths before returning home with his wife and children.In the following days, Boss Zhou went there every day, from the embarrassment at the beginning to the calmness later. After a long time, I found that his mother's words were correct. People asked and asked, and their curiosity was satisfied, so they didn't ask.In a blink of an eye, in mid-July, the villagers began to dig sweet potatoes. This thing is indeed full, but it is also strenuous and has to be digged out of the soil one by one. The advantage is that the excavated soil has been turned over.Li Qinghe still invites people, because they can't do much.Busy, the autumn harvest is over, the cellars and warehouses of each house are full, in fact, after the sweet potatoes, no one in the village is really hungry. Even the neighboring town, or even the neighboring county, can fill up the stomach even in difficulties with sweet potatoes.The farmers have worked hard for a year, but in fact, it is to fill their stomachs.In the autumn evening, Xu's carriage arrived.After a few years of goodbye, Xu's eye corners have a few more wrinkles, and Bin'er has grown taller, and there seems to be no change.It was already night when they arrived. Taking advantage of the moonlight to enter the door, Xu sent away the coachman, leaving behind a woman and Bin'er's book boy.Let Chen prepare hot water for them to wash, and then go to the kitchen to cook for them.After washing, Xu's muslin shirt leaned against the kitchen door, smiling as she watched her cooking, "Qinghe, I can't help you."Li Qinghe was startled and couldn't help but laugh, "Mother, why would you say that?"Xu did not answer this, smiling, "Fortunately, seeing you are doing well, I am relieved."I can't answer this. The mother and daughter have not seen each other for a few years and they are very close. When they say this, Li Qinghe broke the topic and asked with a smile, "How long do you plan to stay?""What? I'm going to chase me away as soon as I arrive?" Xu asked with a smile. After the question, he became more serious. "In the future, I may live in the village instead of the county seat."
