After the Republic of China

Chapter 46
For the Zhang family, Nanny Miao is the authority. She usually decides what matters in the family.

Zhang Leizi subconsciously withdrew his hands and didn't let go of the burden, his mother's eyes had already stood up.

Father Zhang knew what his wife was thinking, and took what was in his son's hand.

Nanny Miao glared reproachfully at her son who was stunned aside, took the small package handed over by her wife, carefully unfastened the burden button, and nodded as she untied it, "That's right, it's a mandarin duck button. This thing has never been second-handed."

Zhang Leizi knew more or less about the inner courtyard of the house, and hurriedly said: "There shouldn't be any problems. Uncle Bai personally handed it over to me."

"It's him who needs to investigate more." Nanny Miao knows Bai Lao Er's personality very well, and Bai Lao Er is not a reliable person at critical times.

Father Zhang also has some opinions on Bai Lao Er, but he is not used to talking behind others' backs.

He knocked on the cigarette holder, and said to his wife: "What are you talking about, hurry up and read it, after reading it, I can give it to others."

The furoshiki is navy blue satin, firm and strong.

The untied mandarin duck buttons were scattered aside, and the things in the bag were neat and tidy, showing the owner's intentions.

Nanny Miao counted the things in the bag one by one, and said strangely: "Father, why are there so many things, and they are still marked with signs. Look, I don't know some characters."

Nanny Miao is Lu's dowry girl, she can read some words, but not many.

Father Zhang knew a lot of Chinese characters because he had an old uncle, Zhang Zhang, who took care of him.

Hearing what his wife said, he hurried over to take a look.

Mistress Miao was afraid that he might not be able to see clearly, so she lit the lamp.

"Really, thanks to your checking, there are still pills for us here. Miss, alas." Father Zhang was really moved.

Nanny Miao was both happy and distressed, and wiped her eyes, "Miss is as kind-hearted as our wife. That's enough, we've almost finished ordering, keep your own, and you can take the rest."

After taking down her own things, Nanny Miao roused her wife instead.

Father Zhang rolled up the burden skin, stuffed it into his arms, nodded, and went out.

Xiahewan and Daluozhuang are connected together, and going to Daluozhuang from the city must pass through Xiahewan.

Although the sky had already darkened, Father Zhang arrived at Luo's house very quickly.

The Luo family is gathering in the main room for dinner.

Hearing the barking of dogs outside, Uncle Luo threw away his chopsticks and said to his eldest son, "Songzi, go and open the door, it must be your Uncle Zhang who is here."

Luo Congsong had been waiting with his neck up for a long time, and when he heard this, he rushed outside happily.

The Luo family has a small family fortune. There are two front and back yards. The eldest son's family lives in the back yard, the old couple live in the front yard, and the youngest son's room. The barn is in the west wing.

Luo Congsong walked quickly, and arrived at the gate of the courtyard in a short while.

Cautiously, he spoke to Uncle Zhang at the door before opening the door.

Now that the years are in chaos, Father Zhang understands that Luo's family is careful, and he has to be careful when it's his family's turn.

Luo Congsong hugged Father Zhang into the main room, and Aunt Luo had already added some bowls and chopsticks to Father Zhang.

Everyone was acquaintances, and Father Zhang didn't refuse. After sitting down, he directly put the burden on the table.

Seeing the burden, Uncle Luo breathed a sigh of relief and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry for the trouble, brother, I'll let you go for a trip this late at night."

Luo Congsong immediately pulled back the burden, "It was done so quickly, Miss Shao is really amazing."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, his hands had already untied the burden.

Everything inside was immediately exposed.

Everyone was surprised to see a lot of paper bags.

Uncle Luo was very dissatisfied with his son's recklessness, glared at his son several times, and then smiled embarrassedly at Father Zhang.

Now that the things were given away, although Father Zhang felt that Cong Song was a little reckless, he didn't plan to take care of it.

Everyone was familiar with them, so he said to Uncle Luo indifferently, "It's all my own, it's nothing."

Luo Congsong also knew that he had made a mistake. Seeing that Father Zhang didn't say anything, he smiled embarrassedly, and then looked at the burden again.

Seeing that there was still a porcelain bottle inside, he glanced at his father and saw that his father was not stopping him, so he picked it up carefully and looked at it with the lamp, "Ah! This is a life-saving pill. Ms. Shao knows something, right?"

"What are you talking about?" Uncle Luo was shocked when he heard that there were Baoming pills, he quickly grabbed the porcelain bottle, and said to his wife who was staring at the bag, "Hurry up and send it to the back."

Aunt Luo knew how rare Ms. Shao's Baoming Pill was, so she took it and walked outside without being polite.

Seeing the performance of the Luo family, Father Zhang raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself, the Luo family might have something important to do.

In fact, Baoming Pills are also available at his home.

However, the existence of Baoming Pill is extremely confidential, and the Luo family also knows about it, and the lady even gave some to the Luo family.

Now, the lady sent it again. Could it be that the second boy of the Luo family is really with the lady?
Thinking of this, Father Zhang became uneasy.

No one in the Luo family is thinking about Papa Zhang's senses now.

Probably the medicine had arrived, and there was still a bottle of life-saving pills. Seeing his wife had left, Uncle Luo cheered Zhang Zhang up in a good mood, and sat down to drink and eat food.

Father Zhang saw that he was relieved, although he was a little bit unhappy, he didn't think about it too much, and at the invitation of Uncle Luo, he drank a little wine with peace of mind.

Outside, Meizi Lan, the daughter-in-law of the Luo family, came out of the kitchen, and said to the mother-in-law who was walking towards the backyard: "Mom, it's dark outside, let me deliver something."

She didn't know what her mother-in-law was going to do later, she just simply worried about the old man walking around at night.

Aunt Luo is an outsider, bright and generous, and treats her daughter-in-law very well.

Seeing her daughter-in-law wiping her hands and getting ready to pick up something, she hurriedly said, "No, just cook a few more dishes and send them to your dad."

The Luo family is an ordinary farm house, and the yard is not lit when it is dark.

Aunt Luo was carrying something in her hand, her eyes were normal, but she couldn't see what she was holding.

Lan Meizi saw her mother-in-law insisting, but she didn't see her carrying any heavy things.

Just in time, she was really reluctant to go to a woman's house later on, so she said, "Mother be careful", and went back to the kitchen to get busy.

Aunt Luo didn't have the time to talk to her daughter-in-law. She waved her hand, and she had already turned the corner.

"Who!" As soon as Aunt Luo stepped into the backyard, she was startled by a shout.

Knowing the rules, she didn't get angry, and quickly responded, "Goofy, I'm your Aunt Luo."

Gouzi is Luo Congbai's subordinate, and they live temporarily in the backyard of Luo's house.

"It turned out to be Auntie." Gouzi put away his rifle and said with a smile, "It's so late, what is Auntie doing here? Could it be that she is here to deliver delicious food."

Gouzi and Luo Congbai often come to the house secretly, and they are very familiar with each other.

Seeing his gluttonous appearance, Aunt Luo smiled and said with concern: "I didn't bring you any delicious food, but if you want something delicious, Auntie Ming'er will make it for you."

Gouzi is not polite, he nodded with a smile, "That's a good relationship."

Aunt Luo likes such a straightforward person the most, and the smile on her face grew wider, "Dog, have you all eaten?" As she spoke, she pointed her mouth at the main room in the backyard.
