Chapter 27 Someone Forcibly Bought Potatoes

"The current market price is like this, how can you blame the third brother? Besides, I asked the third brother to help buy it." Luo Qingqing said with a smile.

It was only when Luo Xia came here that he put down the heart he was carrying.

Of course, when I go back to the room and talk about the matter, I will be scolded by Mrs. Zhou: "You little bastard! Spending your sister's dowry money, I don't even know how distressed I am!"

Luo Xia came to be wronged, but she didn't dare to say it, she could only divert the old lady's attention: "...Mom, I'm serious, my sister seems to be really well! She was smiling at me just now!"

"Bullshit!" Mrs. Zhou glared at San'er, "Your sister has always been fine!"

"Oh, yes, yes, mother, you are right."

...

Before dawn the next day, Luo Qingqing and Mr. Luo each carried a few potatoes, joined the villagers, and set off for the county in the Zhao family's ox cart.

Luo Chunsheng and Luo Xialai also hitched a ride and went to the town to recruit workers.

When the ox cart arrived at the county seat, the night had just receded a little bit, and the gates of the outer city had not yet opened.

"There's a tea shed over there, let's go and wait." Luo Qingqing pointed to a place not far outside the city gate.

Everyone hesitated... Drinking tea costs money.

Luo Qingqing pointed to the cow lane: "This is outside the city. Our cattle are too conspicuous. Although the imperial court has always enforced strict laws against stealing and slaughtering healthy cattle, in today's world, everyone can't get enough to eat, so it is inevitable Some people take risks for a short while."

This is true.

Zhao Erniu, the owner of the bullock cart, first agreed to Luo Qingqing's proposal.

Just kidding, if something happens to the cow in his hands, his father will beat him to death!

Mr. Luo naturally supported his daughter unconditionally, and it was difficult for Cunzheng and the other person who came with him temporarily to say anything. Besides, when they entered the city, they would have to rely on Luo Qingqing!
The tea shed costs three Wen per person, and only hot water is provided, and there is no other food.

Luo Qingqing didn't dislike it either, so she took out the warm potatoes and peeled them to eat.

The others also brought out wild vegetable cakes and coarse noodle steamed buns, and put them in hot water, which was much better than gnawing dry food.

It was still early, and there were not many people in the tea shed. Except for Luo Qingqing's table, there was only one table in the corner. There were only three of them. They seemed to have stayed there for a long time, and they were lying on the table to catch up on sleep.

"Fourth, what are you two eating?" Village Zheng didn't dare to talk nonsense to Luo Qingqing, and couldn't suppress his curiosity, so he asked Mr. Luo.

Mr. Luo was the fourth brother in that generation, but the three older brothers above are no longer there. Even the older generation in the village or those of his peers still used to call him the fourth or fourth brother.

"Yeah, it's Lao Xiang's fault." Luo Baozhu, who came with Muramasa temporarily, couldn't help asking.

Mr. Luo glanced at Luo Qingqing, saw her nod slightly, and then said generously and somewhat ostentatiously: "This is called potatoes, and it is a kind of grain that my family Qingqing found."

"Everyone have a taste too." Luo Qingqing took out three not-so-big potatoes and handed them to Muren Zheng, Luo Baozhu and Zhao Erniu.

The three of them couldn't help but hesitate: "How can this be done, we can't afford to eat so much gold now."

It's just that the saliva can't help but secrete.

Luo Qingqing was about to say something more, when someone snatched the potato from her hand.

"Your potatoes and beans, I bought them!"

The other party dropped a bank note as a charity, and was one of the people at the table in the corner.

Luo Qingqing quickly collected the bank notes, and stopped Mr. Luo who wanted to argue with others: "It's getting late, the city gate is about to open, let's go to line up first, so as not to have to wait for a while."

A few people had just walked not far before they were stopped again.

Or the guy who snatched potatoes just now...

"stop!"
