Chapter 69 Gambling
"Of course not. I also study hard, but I'm not as good as you." Fu Bao made a grimace after speaking.

"My wish is over, how about you?"

Fu Bao sat on the sofa, hugged his knees with his hands, and rested his chin on his knees, looking at Wen Heng expectantly.

"I..." Wen Heng hesitated.

"I want to study, gain fame, and clean up the grievances of my grandfather's family."

"This is not a wish, it can only be regarded as your mission. What is your wish?"

"I hope there will be no more wars in the world, and no one will be hungry..." Wen Heng said slowly, his whole body seemed to be immersed in grief for an instant.

Fu Bao felt awkward for a moment, did she say something she shouldn't have said.

At this time, Wen Heng lowered his head, and in his mind, the scene of corpses and blood all over the ground in the Southern Barbarian land appeared. In the city not far away, there were old people, or children, women or teenagers, emaciated, and the granaries were empty.

"Cousin Heng..." Seeing Wen Heng's body trembling faintly, Fu Bao couldn't help shouting, shaking his body subconsciously.

Wen Heng raised his head abruptly.

The tears on his face were still wet, and his eyes were red.

"What's wrong with you?" Fu Bao asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, I just thought of some bad things." Wen Heng pulled the corner of his mouth hard, showing an ugly smile.

"Then, let's go to bed early." Fu Bao got up, blew out the oil lamp, took Wen Heng's hand and sent him back to the room, and after closing the door, he sighed.

Wen Heng, who was lying on the bed, closed his eyes and remembered the scene when he followed his grandfather to the land of the Southern Barbarians to fight against foreign enemies.

"Grandpa, I can't eat enough here, I can't sleep well, and there is still a war, and I will die at any moment. Why don't you go back to the capital?"

"Heng'er, if grandpa goes back, won't the people on the southern barbarian border be bullied?"

"Then grandpa, you are here to guard the border and fight against bad guys. What if you get injured?"

"Grandpa will be careful, but you have to remember that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. Heng'er, you must study hard and contribute to the revitalization of Daliang Kingdom."

"Well, I will study hard."

That was the first and last time he saw his grandfather when he was five years old.

When he got news of his grandfather again, it was the time when his mother took him to pay condolences to his grandfather, and it was also when they were hunted down.

After thinking about it, Wen Heng fell into a drowsy sleep.

The next morning.

Fu Bao was called up, and seeing Wen Heng who was nothing but a normal person, what she wanted to say was pressed down in her heart.

Two people ate Yangchun noodles, and then a lard fried egg for each person.

"Fubao, fifth brother will report the progress of the shop to you." Zhang Xiaowu saw Fubao eating and ran over quickly.

"In the shop, there are two double-door wardrobes, one three-door wardrobe, two chests of drawers, a dressing table, and a single sofa."

"Why are there so many? When did you make them?" Fu Bao was stunned. Didn't he just make the sofa that shopkeeper Feng wanted?
"For me, I also have the double-door wardrobe and chest of drawers in Ruige'er's room as exhibits. The three-door wardrobe is made of wood by my elder brother. It can be assembled directly, so it is fast. The dressing table is made from The sister-in-law's room was moved there, the single sofa, I wanted it before, but now let's set up a shop and sell it for money."

Fubao was surprised, and there is still this kind of operation, but after thinking about it, it is indeed possible, otherwise it would be a waste of time to do it again, and if there are samples, many people will buy it.

"Fifth brother, you've done a great job this time." Fu Bao stuffed the last bite of fried egg into his mouth, it was so delicious.

But eating lard every day is not good for the body. Why is there no vegetable oil in ancient times?

"If you don't have anything to say, then I'll go to Fucheng. It's opening today." Seeing that Fu Bao had nothing to say, Zhang Xiaowu turned and left.

Fu Bao and Wen Heng went to the school with their book bags.

"The third sister-in-law of the Zhang family, we're here to get the tofu." Six or seven people poured into the courtyard of the Zhang family's old house, all beaming.

"Today is six hundred catties, six people, and there will be more people in the future. Your representative will come to inspect the goods, three people, no more, no less." Xiao Li said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, six or seven people gathered around to discuss for a while, and then three people stood up.

"Chang Qing, this plate of tofu weighs [-] catties, so it's exactly [-] catties. If you weigh it and it's all right, we'll start the inspection." Mrs. Li glanced at the man in the black jacket and said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll come first." Chang Qing smiled and dug a small mouthful of tofu with a spoon to taste it, then sat aside.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, I'm here to inspect the goods too." After speaking, Li Sheng picked up a spoon and tasted it.

"I'll come too." Liu Ming imitated them and tasted it.

After about a quarter of an hour, none of the three had any unusual reactions.

Mrs. Li took out the contract, "Just sign this, Second Uncle Liu, you can read and read for everyone."

After Liu Ming took the contract, he read it over and there was no problem, "Then I will sign it first."

Signed, got the tofu and left.

The people behind got the tofu one after another, and then pushed the cart away.

The yard suddenly became empty.

"Everyone, let's rest for a while, and we will start grinding tofu in the afternoon." Mrs. Zhang called everyone to have something to eat.It must have been exhausting to have been working since before dawn.

"Sister-in-law, I'll talk to the village chief about recruiting people with the third child. The family depends on you." Mrs. Li said as she pulled off her apron.

"Well, let's go," Mrs. Zhang waved her hand, indicating that the two of them could leave.

When Mrs. Li entered the kitchen from the courtyard, she smelled a strong fragrance, and then saw Mrs. Zhang cooking something on the cauldron, "Sister-in-law, what are you cooking?"

After speaking, I saw that there was a plate of tofu on the side shelf. The tofu on this plate seemed to be heavier than the tofu made before.

"Five-spice juice, I will use it to make dried tofu later." Zhang Wang said with a smile. He started to study this five-spice juice a few days ago, and finally finished it today.

"Then this is for making tofu?" Mrs. Da Li valued the tofu beside him.

"Well, it's the same as making tofu, except that you need to press something heavy, and then press it for a longer time." Da Li turned off the fire while speaking, and just put the marinade in the pot. When the tofu is ready, directly cook.

Mrs. Da Li nodded, and then walked out of the room.

After going out, he was going to the field to check the situation of the sweet potatoes, when Li Fugui rushed up with a panicked expression, his clothes were torn to pieces.

"Big sister, big sister, you save me, you must save me."

"Fugui, what's going on with you?" Mrs. Li looked worried, looked at Li Fugui, and dragged him into the yard of the workshop.

"I owe money, and they want me to pay it back now. I don't have any money, big sister, can you lend me some money?" Li Fugui said hastily.

The horror on his face was terrifying.

"I just gave you two taels of silver a few days ago! Are you going to gamble again?" Mrs. Da Li was very angry!
