Chapter 152

Song Zhenping also ate until his eyes were narrowed into slits. Only now did he return to his youthful appearance, full of hope for his future life.

Song Liyun went to buy another ten candied haws under Xiao An's reminder.

When he left home yesterday morning, Hei Jin held onto the wheel and did not let go. Xiao An left, and he wanted to go to Fucheng with him.

There was no way, Song Liyun herself was going to Fucheng for the first time, and she had business to do, so she couldn't bring the big monkey by her side.

Hei Jin had no choice but to promise to bring some delicious food back, and Hei Jin walked away resentfully.

Candied haws are also wrapped with a few dry leaves.

Only now did Song Liyun know that the leaves were specially prepared in summer.

Most of the articles in the Wu Dynasty were wooden boxes and wooden boxes.

Including the leather goods purchased by Wanjia, they are also packed in heavy wooden boxes, and the outside is wrapped with oilcloth.

It seems that when I go back, I quickly pick up the things soaked in the water and arrange it on the schedule.

After eating candied haws, Xiaoan was attracted by the candy man's stand next to him.

So the three of them watched others playing sugar paintings again, and finally Xiao An got a sugar phoenix, and happily held it in his hands and swaggered through the market.

When it was time for dinner, Song Liyun originally wanted to take the two brothers to a restaurant for dinner, but Song Zhenping refused.

Just buy some steamed buns and go back to the inn to eat.

Until now, Song Zhenping has never spent any money by himself.

He didn't know the specific cost of ordering food at the inn.

Seeing with his own eyes today the cost of the medicine, and the purchase of candied haws and candied phoenix already made his heart ache!

Song Liyun no longer reluctantly went to the restaurant, but found a small restaurant that looked clean.

Mutton soup with steamed buns.

Although the shop is small, the taste is still good.

It's just that the three brothers and sisters of the Song family are used to eating some green vegetables every day. In the past two days, apart from dry food, they have eaten all kinds of noodles, and their mouths feel a little tired.

After eating, Song Liyun started to buy food to fill his small warehouse.

Money can be earned at will, but food is hard to find.

In the future, even if all the money in the family is gone, he can still sell food for emergencies.

The price of grain in Pingyang Prefecture is lower than that in Qili County, and no one cares how much they buy.

With Song Zhenping's cooperation, she "packed" thousands of catties of grain into her small silver bag.

Now all the food in her storage space is added up, enough for Bao Linju to close the door and eat for three years.

The other is the seeds and various agricultural tools that Song Zhenping needs.

Song Liyun also chose a set of carpenter's axes and planes.

Stay another night at the inn.

Early the next morning, when the city gate just opened, the Song family's carriage left Pingyang.

The exit from the city went smoothly, but a mile outside the city gate, a group of refugees directly blocked the way of the carriages and horses going out of the city.

In front of the Song family's carriage, a car was forced to stop, and those people rushed up and surrounded it.

Song Liyun soon heard yelling and screaming, and was pulled out by a homeless man with a burden, and ran outside with his arms in his arms.

The people in the carriage wanted to chase them, but they couldn't get away. They could only yell angrily, beat the refugees who surrounded them with whips, and wanted to drive away quickly.

On the other side, some refugees in dirty clothes also rushed towards the Song family's carriage.

Song Zhenping squeezed the reins tightly and trembled all over. Only now did he know what the inn clerk meant when he said he wanted to grab something.

Being stared at by the refugees at this time, he was like a little lamb surrounded by vicious dogs.

Song Liyun had been prepared for a long time, before the refugees approached, she stood up, took out two stacks of dry biscuits and threw them vigorously on both sides of the carriage.

The dry biscuits flew far away and landed on the ground, causing a burst of cursing.

The women, children and children who were walking behind stopped coming and started picking up cakes.

The few men who ran to the car were not reconciled, and shouted: "I beg you kind people, give me something more!"

But his hand came over to grab the basket beside Xiaoan.

Xiao An screamed in fright, Song Liyun hugged him, and at some point a black stick thick as a thumb appeared in his hand, and hit those outstretched wrists hard, saying in his mouth: "Brother, hurry up and go!"

"Ah! Ahh!"

A man screamed and fell out of the crowd with his arms folded.

Although Song Zhenping was afraid, but when he heard Xiao An screaming, he no longer softened his heart. He swung his whip and whipped those refugees.

After running for several miles, no more refugees were seen, and the old horse gradually slowed down.

The car in front of them was parked on the side of the road, and the man sitting on the shaft looked angry. It was obvious that his things had been robbed.

Song Zhenping had lingering fears. When he was at the inn, the staff said that those refugees only wanted to get out of the city, not enter the city.

Just because people leaving the city must have something in their parcels, and they need to hurry, they don’t have time and can’t afford it, and it’s not easy to attract the officers and soldiers of the city to trace them if they lose a few small parcels.

It was intentional, and now he couldn't have any sympathy for the refugees.

The mood of going home is like an arrow.

After getting rid of the refugees, the carriage moved slowly again.

Xiao An was fiddling with the things he bought for Hei Jin and Aunt Yun, while listening to his brothers and sisters talking.

When it was dark, the three brothers and sisters finally returned to Suijin Town.

This time, there were no Song brothers waiting for the door, only Hei Jinyan crouched on the wall and looked around.

The moon is bright in the sky, and squatting on the courtyard wall can see far away.

When the carriage appeared outside the woods, Hei Jin screamed happily and jumped down from the wall.

Han Ming and Yun Niang also came out to welcome them.

When the masters of Baolinju came back, they were immediately full of laughter and delicious food.

The next day, Song Zhenping went to the guard to return the horse, and took the opportunity to sell it.

Song Liyun went to the Broken Gold Guild Hall in the town.

Now the guild hall is being taken care of by Mr. Zhang and others. There are tables, chairs and benches inside, and the townspeople can have tea and chat here when they are free.

It was still early for Song Liyun to arrive, and only an old man was sweeping the floor. When he saw her entering the courtyard, he quickly put down his broom to welcome her.

At his age, he shouldn't be so respectful to Song Liyun, the daughter of a military family, but this guild hall was funded by the Song family, and they only need to take care of it every day, and they can receive tea money to subsidize the use of the Jinglaotang.

This is the Song family doing good deeds, so when they saw Song Liyun at this time, they couldn't help saying respectfully and flatteringly: "Morning girl, the hot water has just boiled, and the girl is just drinking the first pot of tea."

Song Liyun shook her head, put a basket of side dishes and a few catties of white noodles in her hand on the table, looked at the empty tea table and asked, "No one is drinking tea and playing cards now? Is there any credit for a day?"

The old man said with a smile on his face: "Now the people in the town are either farming or serving vegetables, and they also make vermicelli. They have less time to sit around and only earn fifty yuan a day."

Although people in the town have less free time, they all like to come here to sit and inquire about some news.

I used to sit around for a long time with nothing to do, but now I have money in my pocket, and I don’t feel bad about spending a penny or two for tea.

"Oh! That's not bad!"

Song Liyun raised her eyebrows. With the income of fifty renminbi, the Jinglaotang can basically eat more fine grains.

Hearing her coming, Old Man Zhang also hurried over from the Hall of Respect for the Elderly: "Miss Song, what's the matter?"

"I have something to tell everyone, please ask the old man to inform the head of the town to come here."

"Okay!" Old Man Zhang responded immediately, and was about to go out and notify each house.

The original intention of setting up the Suijin Guild Hall was to provide people in the town with a place to chat, and it was also a convenient place to gather for meetings.
