There were many chickens, ducks, geese and eggs in the town. Ke Muqing asked about the prices and bought some if they were not expensive.

Over the years, the original owner has been reluctant to eat and wear clothes, and both the adults and children in the family have suffered severe health problems. Ke Muqing has money, so he plans to buy more meat to supplement everyone's health, so that everyone can be in good health when they go south.

The two bought an oxcart full of things, and when they were about to go back, they happened to meet a group of people from the Ke family.

"When I looked at it from a distance, I thought I looked like you. I asked your father to hurry up and catch up with the cow. It's really you and Wen Xiao." The old lady was shocked when she saw the things on the cow cart. "It seems that today I’m really willing to spend money.”

"How can these be used to sell wine? If I do things like this, how will other people in the village sell drinks in the future?" Ke Muqing explained with a smile, "Most of them are bought to eat at home. If I don't want to eat them, I will go south. How can I go on a long journey without good health?"

"You know, mother, you can rest assured." The Ke family came so early just to see if Ke Muqing, a rebellious girl, would act stupid again. It's rare to have a wine treat. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if there were not two bowls of decent dishes on the table? ?

Ke Muqing talked to the old lady for a while before being called to the front by Ke Xiucai.

"The price of grain in the county has increased by another penny per pound." Ke Xiucai said, "It's only been a few days since the price increased again."

"I found out when I passed by the grain store in the morning." When she asked Lou's family to buy grain, it cost five cents per catty. Now it costs six cents in the town, and fine grains, such as flour, are even more expensive, so Ke Muqing The flour on the oxcart is all purchased from the space mall.

The owner of the grain store is better informed than anyone else, and knows about any trouble outside before anyone else.

When food prices rise, it must be because someone outside has started to stockpile food in large quantities.

"This world simply doesn't give the poor any way to survive." Ke Xiucai sighed, and then said to Ke Muqing, "Mr. Zhou and his family are going south with us."

However, where did this come from? In the memory of the original owner, after the locust plague, the price of food was dozens of times what it is now. At that time, there was really no way for the poor to survive.

So Ke Muqing was extremely happy. Fortunately, there was a buyer version in the mall, so she didn't have to worry about how to continue to collect food quietly.

Not mentioning the price of food, Ke Xiucai did send some good news.

"That's great. With Doctor Zhou here, we won't have to worry about getting a headache or fever on the way." There is a doctor with superb medical skills in the team. This is great news.

Moreover, Dr. Zhou and his wife are both modest people, and they have been friends with Ke Xiucai for many years, so there is no need to worry about any discord on the road.

The oxcart rocked all the way to home. Ke Muqing thought that the Ke family should have arrived early, but unexpectedly, Ke Hongxiu and Ke Xuelian's family had arrived earlier.

When the ox cart arrived at the door, a carriage was already parked at the door.

As soon as Ke Muqing walked in, Ke Hongxiu came right after scolding her.

It's late but it's arrived.

"Well, Ke Muqing, something big happened to Xiu'e. You went to the county several times and you didn't even tell us sisters. What's the matter? Are we aunts not worthy of knowing about our nieces? Or something? "

"I was still wondering why Xiu'e's child was still lying in the room when we were all here. When I asked, I found out that something so big had happened to her. I really..."

Ke Hongxiu nodded at Ke Muqing, "It really makes me mad." "It's not that I have too many things to do in the county. I forgot about it when I sat down to talk to you. Now that you know it, it's not too late. Don't worry about it with us." Ke Muqing hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Of course I know that your aunt cares about your niece. Xiu Fang and the others have said that you and your parents have secretly helped and supported them over the years. You, the aunt, are much more qualified than me, the mother."

Ke Hongxiu was not so angry now and snorted, "I'm too lazy to pay attention to you. I'll go back and talk to Xiu'e."

Today, Ke Hongxiu and Ke Xuelian's whole family came together. They looked at the sisters' children, who were very polite. When they saw Ke Muqing, they all bowed and called aunt, and then looked back at their silly older children who could only grin. , Ke Muqing shook his head.

Ke Xiucai knew what she was doing when he saw her little move, "Children are taught. Your two sisters' children have never given up studying since they were enlightened. Your family..."

This time it was Ke Xiucai's turn to shake his head. Who among these children has picked up a book since Yang Daniu passed away? Who has ever put pen to paper again?

Reading makes people wise and rational.

In order not to be angry with Ke Xiucai, Ke Muqing did not tell the peasants that Ke Zhaodi had brainwashed the original owner that studying was useless and would only be a waste of money.

Fortunately, although the original owner was confused, he just did not force several children to take the merit test, but the original owner also knew the importance of literacy. Except for the youngest of the Yang family, who was not taken seriously by the original owner because she was a girl, the other children could not read or write. question.

The Yang family's small courtyard became more and more lively, and the relatives all brought their own tables and chairs. In a short time, there were more than ten tables in the courtyard.

Yang Shuangshuang was like a big sister, leading her children to place peanuts and melon seeds on tables. Yang Shuangshuang also had other snacks here. After a while, all the little ones in the clan joined in. One called her sister, and the other called aunt. , Yang Shuangshuang was so majestic that he couldn't stop grinning.

Old Mrs. Ke held up the tea cup and looked at it, then turned to Ke Muqing and said, "You, the eldest granddaughter, have a quick mind."

"Yes, this child is precocious, smart and has a stable temperament." Ke Muqing nodded, but unfortunately he was delayed by the original owner. He still didn't know a word at the age of ten. "Mother, sit down while I go outside to greet the guests. If you need anything, Just call that kid Shuangshuang.”

Yang Lizheng's family also came. When they entered, they sat down with Ke Xiucai and talked.

The Ke family's land was sold to a large owner from out of town. The customers who had visited the Ke family's land came back and Ke Xiucai introduced them all to Yang Lizheng.

Thanks to the sale of Ke Xiucai's land for fifteen taels per acre, and the increase in grain prices, the price sold by Yang Lizheng's family was several hundred cents higher than that of the Ke family's land.

As Ke Muqing guessed, only Zheng Qiushuang's parents and a grandson of about ten years old came to the Zheng family. When Yang Wenxiao saw it, he stood there uncomfortably and touched the tip of his nose.

I murmured in my heart, if I invite my sister-in-law's family here, I'm afraid my sister-in-law's family will even have to tie up the dog at home and eat it for nothing.

A large makeshift stove set up in a corner of the yard slowly lit up fireworks, and soon the aroma of meat began to spread bit by bit, and then filled the entire yard.

Small snacks can no longer seduce the children. Even the Yang family's own children ran to the stove to watch.

The baby babies who were still unable to control their drooling opened their eyes wide and drooled as they watched, such as Yang Chengshao and several other children in his family who were only two or three years old.
