Chapter 528 Boots

Gu Dashan asked Qin Sanlang to stop the mule cart: "Xiaoyu and I will go find Old Man Mi, and you will send Sanbo and the others back."

Qin Sanlang responded, but said to Gu Qingliang: "Brother Qingliang, come and practice your hands."

Since Gu Jinli's family bought the mule cart, the family began to learn how to drive the mule cart.But with few cars and many people, Gu Qingliang never had a chance to practice. He was very happy when he heard this, and ran over to Gu Dashan and said, "Uncle Dashan, can I try it?"

Gu Dashan has a good temper, so naturally he will not object: "Success, you practice, but be careful, don't bump into talented people."

After hearing this, Gu Qingliang became a little scared, and rushed to Gu Dalin who was not far away: "Uncle, come and teach me."

His younger uncle is the fastest learner, and now he can drive a mule cart to the county seat.

Gu Dalin listened, walked over, sat on the front of the car, and taught Gu Qingliang.

Gu Dashan and Gu Jinli got off the mule cart, went to the lo-mei shop to get a basket of lo-mei, and turned to the bamboo forest behind the shop.

Qin Sanlang has been following them silently. Gu Dashan and Gu Jinli seem to have gotten used to it, and they don't think there is anything wrong with Qin Sanlang following them.

Gu Jinli also disliked Qin Sanlang's slow walking, and turned to him and said, "Brother Qin, hurry up, we have to go back to the village after we finish talking."

With such long legs, why does he walk so slowly?

Qin Sanlang laughed after hearing this, followed after a few strides, took the basket in her hand and said, "I'll get it."

Gu Jinli was not polite to him and asked him to take the basket.

It's past noon now, and Old Man Mi just woke up. Seeing the three of Gu Jinli, he asked, "Why are you here? What's the matter?"

Mrs. Mi said dissatisfied: "You old man, you can't come if you have nothing to do? Do you think your house is a golden nest? It's just a broken house. You can have fun secretly when you have guests. Hurry up and bring the stool to the house. They sit on the mountain."

Old Man Mi knew that Mrs. Mi was bored, and he was eager for someone from the family to spoil her, so he yawned and went back to the house to get a stool.

Qin Sanlang followed in.

Old man Mi heard Qin Sanlang's footsteps with good hearing, and turned his head to stop him: "You don't need to come in, it's just a few stools, the old man can handle them."

Qin Sanlang smiled, turned around and came out without saying anything.

Not long after, Old Man Mi took out some stools and put them outside the house: "Sit down."

"Thank you, Grandpa Mi." Gu Jinli was talking, took the lo-mei from Qin Sanlang, and handed it to Mrs. Mi: "Grandma Mi, this is the lo-mei from the shop, I'll bring it for you to try."

Mrs. Mi was not polite to them, she accepted the stew, and sighed: "There is too much meat stew, there are more than half of the basket, next time I will just get some vegetarian stew, our old couple's teeth are not very good, we eat vegetarian stew It's better to chew."

Gu Jinli said: "Grandma Mi, this meat stew is fat and thin, and it's easy to chew."

Although Mi Laoweng and his wife are old, they are not old enough to chew meat, but they know that meat is expensive, so they don't want to eat their meat for nothing.

Mrs. Mi listened, and brought the lo-mei into the house with a smile, and brought them a basket and a bag of dried bamboo shoots after a while: "I dug these when the bamboo shoots were at their best. How long, you take it back and eat it, it tastes great and has a special chewy texture."

Gu Jinli thanked Mrs. Mi and took it with a smile.

Old Man Mi asked them: "What is the purpose of your visit?" It was impossible to come and see the old couple specifically.

Gu Dashan told them the reason for his visit.

Old Man Mi was surprised when he heard that: "You bought Songzi Zhuang? You also want to invite us old couple to see Zhuangzi?"

Songzizhuang is what the old people in the town call Zoujiazhuangzi outside the town. It is named after the two pine trees behind Zhuangzi.

Gu Dashan nodded: "Well, it's Xiaoyu's idea. I'd like to ask Uncle Mi to do me a favor."

Old Man Mi remained silent, and made Mrs. Mi anxious: "Old man, why are you pretending to be dumb when you talk?"

It would be a pity if such a good job should not be done.

Old Man Mi glared at Mrs. Mi, and asked Gu Jinli: "Girl, why did you invite us to see Zhuangzi? Zhuangzi is a lucrative job, so you should find someone you can trust to see it, or simply buy someone to watch it. .”

No matter what, it's not their husband and wife's turn.

"Grandpa Mi and Grandma Mi are people we can trust." Gu Jinli said: "You two elders have been able to help Huyun watch and guard this wasteland for many years. Needless to say, you are the most trustworthy people. We also trust you two elders. As for buying It will take time for a servant to go to see Zhuangzi, it is impossible to buy a servant who suits you just after buying Zhuangzi today."

"Crops are still planted in that farm, and it's already September, and the crops are about to start earing, so I have to ask someone to watch it quickly, and then arrange someone to carry water and fertilize, so that the ears of rice can be filled with grout and grains, otherwise the harvest of this season may not be enough." Ruined for nothing."

Mrs. Mi urged Old Man Mi: "Don't hurry up, old man, rice is the most abundant thing in Songzizhuang, and rice is so precious. If you delay, I don't know how much food you will waste."

Gu Jinli knew what old man Mi was worried about, so he simply said: "If Grandpa Mi is undecided, you can send a letter to Huyun Temple to ask, and the temple owner will definitely agree when he knows."

Old man Mi narrowed his eyes when he heard this, glanced at Gu Jinli, and said briefly: "...Well, let me watch for you for a while. As for whether we should continue to watch for you in the future, let's talk about it later."

This is what it means to go to Huyun Temple to ask Hu Guanzhu.

Gu Jinli nodded and agreed: "Okay, then you can watch it for us for a while."

Then he said to Gu Dashan: "Father, give me the money."

She is poor and has no money with her now.

Gu Dashan took out 20 taels of silver and handed it to Old Man Mi: "You take the money first. It contains the wages of your old couple and the wages for hiring someone to take care of the crops. I will trouble you."

Old Mi was not polite, and accepted the money: "If there is any leftover, I will return it to you."

He said again: "Songzizhuang is not far from us, just outside the town. My old man has no other skills, but he has lived in the town all his life, and he knows a lot of people in these villages. You don't need to do farm work in the village. Worry, the old man can find someone to do it for you. Don’t worry about the things in the farm, as long as the old man is watching, no one dares to sneak into the farm to cut the crops."

Food is expensive.In the countryside, whenever the grain is ripe, there will always be people who steal other people's grain at night, but Old Man Mi is a very senior old man in the town. As long as he speaks, no one would dare to steal.

Gu Dashan was very happy when he heard that, and after thanking Old Man Mi, he took Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang away.

As for the contract or something, the old man Demi officially agreed to sign it.

On the way, Qin Sanlang was carrying the dried bamboo shoots, deliberately lagging behind a certain distance, still looking at Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli found out, and said to Gu Dashan: "Father, I'll help Brother Qin get things."

Gu Dashan is the most lenient to children, and nodded with a smile: "Go, slow down, if you are tired, bring the dried bamboo shoots, and Dad will take them for you."

"Hey." Gu Jinli responded, ran to Qin Sanlang, took the basket in his hand, and asked, "What did you see?"

He must have seen something at Mi Laoweng's house, otherwise he wouldn't have given her a wink.

Qin Sanlang said: "A pair of boots, long straight horse leather boots."
