Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 60 was caught

Perhaps because they had escaped famine, and because they were close to the mountains and were afraid of bandits, the Bai family paid special attention to the issue of safety, and the cellar was built differently.

Like other people in the village, a cellar was dug under the utility room where grain is stored next to the west wing. This is a cellar. This is a cellar. You two brothers can guess where it is.

In the backyard is an earthen house next to the pig pen where pig food is cooked.

Gu Erzhu stretched his legs and stepped back and forth on both sides of a bluestone slab in the open space where the firewood was placed, and soon heard a "crunching" sound.

A hole appears ahead.

I took a torch and explored forward. In front of me was an earthen step with earthen walls on the edge. It was very primitive.

Going down the steps, suddenly a stone room appeared in front of us.

The middle is divided into two parts by a row of wooden frames from the ground to the top.

There is a vat and an urn on one side, and there is a thick wooden board on the ground on the other side.

"Dad, is this even new food?"

"Grandpa Bai said that I just saw the tank he opened and didn't take a closer look."

"Their family should secretly exchange grain every year. New grain is put in and old grain is pulled out." Gu Wenxuan pointed at the red paper attached to the tank.

Gu Erlang took a closer look and couldn't help but smile, "It's true, you can still smell the fragrance of ink. Dad, where is the blowhole here?"

"Look up there." Gu Erzhu pointed to one side, "That's the blowhole, and above it is the firewood shed.

Don’t forget this, you have to talk to your wife in private.

Something really happened, and my father and I happened to be away from home, so your mother and the others had to hide here to avoid trouble.

Of course, it is necessary to be on guard against others. The Bai family also has daughters-in-law and granddaughter-in-law.

When we move in, the three of us will have to find an opportunity to block the entrance and see if we can change it to come in from the other end..."

Gu Erzhu took his two sons to see the cellar. Mrs. Liu also asked her old daughter to accompany her eldest grandson, while she took her two daughters-in-law to the kitchen to see what was missing.

Ma Shan took the opportunity to quietly ask Mrs. Liu, "Mom, can you tell me how much money you spent to buy it?"

She regretted asking, and quickly made amends, "I didn't mean anything else, I just couldn't help but want to ask you."

Ms. Liu laughed and shook her head, "There's nothing we can't say.

It is said that nearly 40 taels of silver were spent on building this house.

But this is not a city, and the house is quite old.

The Lao Bai family was kind and they didn't ask for much.Including all the things that went to the Yamen to sign the deed, your father spent almost 35 taels of silver to buy it. "

"The price is not high."

definitely.

Our father-in-law is no ordinary person.

Whoever is taken advantage of will not be him.

As for the 22 acres of land deed, Zhou Banxia guessed that he couldn't hide it.

It was out of desperation that he approached Second Master Gu, and then he approached Uncle Gu and made the promise to return the money.

Otherwise, his mother-in-law would have been married off as he wished, but she would have been offended.

Those who are still careless don't know that once the money is handed over, they will be held in the palm of the old man's hand again.

"Do you have enough money? I have it on hand. You and my father should not go to outsiders to borrow money and incur debts."

Zhou Banxia nodded in agreement, "Just say how much is missing.

We are a family. There is no need to tell what is yours or mine. It must be clearly divided. "

Ms. Liu looked at her two daughters-in-law with relief, "No need for now, your father and I still have some money on hand. Even to the outside world, it must be said that you two raised 30 taels of silver for mother."

Understand!
clear!

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very funny.However, speaking of this, Mrs. Liu also mentioned something to her two daughters-in-law.

Because the child's father was eager to get the Bai family's yard, he agreed to a condition put forward by the Bai family.

The Bai family has land that is rented to others for management in the village. If the descendants of the Bai family want to buy land and build houses in the village in the future, her children and grandchildren will have to help negotiate peace.

This doesn't mean that her children and grandchildren will have to help the Bai family's children and grandchildren settle in Qinghe Village in the future, but it means that Uncle Bai wants a promise to leave a way out for his children and grandchildren.

Since she had promised her, even though it was not written into the contract, based on Uncle Bai's actions today, she still hoped that her daughter-in-law would not let her and her husband break their promise one day.

Zhou Banxia would naturally not refuse.

The other party also has fields in Qinghe Village, so this condition is not excessive.

It's just like my mother-in-law said, mostly leaving a way out for my children and grandchildren.

Ma Shan immediately looked at Zhou Banxia.

Zhou Banxia blinked his eyes.

Let’s not mention it for now. Their daughter-in-law’s purpose in buying land is simply to supplement the family income.Once the land is purchased and the land deed is obtained, it will not be too late to discuss it with my mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked around the kitchen, checked out the household items that needed to be purchased, and then moved from the front yard to the backyard. Gu Erzhu and his son also came up.

"Dad, the weather is getting colder and colder. We are not afraid of snow, but we are afraid of rain. We must hurry up."

Gu Erzhu was about to say that he would first find someone to choose an auspicious day to move into the house, and then wait for a few days to renovate the house. After hearing this reminder from Mrs. Liu, he quickly divided the work first.

He simply took his two sons out to do their work, and asked Mrs. Liu to take her daughter-in-law at home to prepare meals for the master and helpers.

He left at once, so fast that before Mr. Liu could ask how many people he needed to help, the father and son ran away directly from the back door.

“Mom, don’t be in a hurry for the meat, just go back and let Zhuangzili deliver it.

I'll go first to see whose family hasn't had time to pickle vegetables, and I'll ask everyone to join in. How many can I buy back first? "

Liu, think about it.

Considering that the child's father has run away, her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will inevitably look at people's faces when they go back, so they might as well buy a yard and let the two children buy vegetables before the news spreads.

"Okay, you and Sanya go together. Who asked why you bought groceries? Don't embarrass your mother. Let's discuss and find an excuse." Mrs. Liu said and quickly reached for her money bag.

Zhou Banxia and Ma Shan didn't refuse either.

I want to supplement my family income, but when I don’t have the opportunity.

The two sisters almost visited Qinghe Village, but they also bought a lot of white rice, which is Chinese cabbage, mustard greens, radishes, etc. and asked each family to help send them back.

Also this time, Zhou Banxia discovered that farm vegetables include not only cucumbers, eggplants, winter melons, pumpkins, tomatoes, and peppers, but also several types of beans.

Fortunately, she was with Ma Shan, otherwise if someone asked her what kind of beans she wanted and couldn't answer, she would have become famous in Zhou Banxia.

Ma Shan is also very good at talking.

Real sales talent.

When buying fresh vegetables, she, the sister-in-law, would always praise the clean dishes she encountered, saying that it would be a pity not to buy such good vegetables for her parents' family.

The Ma family is a village that employs long-term workers to raise livestock and game. It is not far from Qinghe Village, but the family still lives in the old house halfway up the mountain.

No one doubts that her parents' family didn't dry vegetables this year.

She can't, her husband's natal family is in the same village.

If she wants to go out to buy dried vegetables, her mother can run over in less than a quarter of an hour to see if she has too much money and can't spend it. What kind of dried vegetables can she buy? It's not like she doesn't have them at home.

"Three!"

got caught.

Li shouted.

Ma Shan almost died laughing.
