Under the flower field fence

Chapter 5
Huamu smiled innocently, and said dotingly to Huali, "You are my sister, I don't spoil you, whoever spoils you, please put on grandma's coat, it's cold outside."

Huali just looked at Huamu with a happy face. She was lonely and helpless in her previous life. The one thing she longed for most was to have someone who loved her. Now that this wish has come true, how could she be unhappy?

.

Huali looked at the white snow on the side of the road and didn't continue talking.

Huamu didn't force Huali, and seeing that Huali didn't want to talk, she started talking to Li Da, who was driving the carriage, "Uncle, we can't let my grandma and the others know about selling wild boars, otherwise they will try to ask us to take out the money. I want to keep this money to buy quilts for my sister, since winter is still so long, I should also buy the food that should be bought, otherwise I will not be able to survive the winter."

Huamu is a calculating person. Although he was always naive before, as long as things are not too much, he will compromise, but compromise does not mean that he is stupid. He used to think that he should respect his grandparents and uncles.

If it wasn't for Huali's sudden illness, he wouldn't have seen through the warmth and coldness of human relationships, and if it wasn't for Huali's insinuations, he wouldn't be so hard-hearted and wanted to fight for some rights for himself.

Li Da knows Huamu's grandma Huahe's nature very well. She is a person who wants to be greedy when she sees something good. I came to play."

Huamu nodded and sat down in peace, while Huali looked at Huamu appreciatively.

"Sister, what kind of eyes do you have? It makes my brother feel embarrassed." Huamu lowered her head and smiled innocently.

A faint blush appeared on her thin face, looking at the shy Huamu, Huali laughed loudly.

"Brother and sister are admiring you, don't be embarrassed, grandma and the others have done too much, our family is already poor enough, father and mother have passed away for so long, and I didn't see them help a little, instead they put the valuable things in our house Let’s go, my brother can’t be too honest, it’s easy to suffer.”

Huali's words won Li Da's appreciation, "Your sister Huamu is right, you can't be too honest, even if you are honest, it depends on the person. I don't think grandma's family is really bad."

Huamu scratched his head, "I know now, I can see clearly after my sister got sick, so I won't be so stupid anymore."

When Huali was sick, she needed money to hire a doctor, but Huamu went all over her uncle's house, as well as his grandma's house, but couldn't borrow a single coin.

If Li Da and Li Kang hadn't heard the news of Huali's illness, came here in a hurry, and hired a doctor with money, Huali's life would really be lost, and what they didn't know was that the real Huali It was indeed dead, and the Huali standing in front of them had been resurrected to replace the host.

The carriage soon arrived in the town, and Li Da's house was closer to the market, so it took less time than usual to go to the market with flowers and trees.

I have heard of Huali. Li Da is a good hunter in the village, and the prey he hunts will be sent to restaurants for sale, and he is very familiar with selling wild boars.

In the back alley of Jixiang Restaurant, Li Da and Li Hu lifted the wild boar out of the car, and then knocked on the back door of Jixiang Restaurant.

After a while, a man who looked like a junior opened the door.

Li Da and Xiaoer seem to be very familiar, and when they met, they immediately said, "Xiao Lizi, call your shopkeeper Tong, I have something good to sell to him."

Xiao Er, who was called Xiao Lizi, looked at the wild boar on the ground, and his face was happy, "Brother Li has got a big guy. I'll call the shopkeeper right away after you guys."

After speaking, Xiao Lizi entered the house.

After a while, there was the sound of messy footsteps, and a middle-aged man in his forties came out. As soon as he came out, the man saw the wild boar on the ground, and his face was also beaming. Dude, quickly bring it in."

Li Hu and Li Da tacitly lifted up the wild boar and carried it to the yard.

Huali quickly followed after the wild boar was put on the ground, Li Da pointed to the wild boar and started talking.

"Shopkeeper Tong, this wild boar weighs at least 150 catties, how much do you think it's worth?" Li Da was also straightforward.

Shopkeeper Tong has been in business for so many years, and he has developed a pair of piercing eyes, "Well, this wild boar is indeed about 150 catties. You estimate it very accurately, so I will calculate it for you according to the market price. Now a catty of pork is fifteen yuan. This wild boar is about 110 catties after killing the pigs, and everyone is old acquaintances, so I will calculate it at 120 catties, and the total is [-] Wen."

Shopkeeper Tong has already given Li Da a discount in this way. After all, they sell live pigs, not slaughtered ones. Shopkeeper Tong has to butcher the pigs himself. According to Huali’s understanding, the price of wild boars here is not more expensive than domestic pigs. .

As soon as Li Da heard that there was still a reason for his refusal, he hurriedly thanked shopkeeper Tong.

Shopkeeper Tong carried silver taels with him. He took out an ingot of one tael of silver, and then counted eight hundred copper coins and handed it to Li Da. The transaction was considered completed.

As soon as he left the door of Jixiang Restaurant, Li Da handed over the silver to Huamu.

Huamu glanced at the money in his hand, and really felt that he was not suitable for managing money. He was afraid that he would soften his heart at that time, and when Huahe came to ask for it, he would give it away again.

Huamu handed the silver and copper coins to Huali, and then Huamu said, "Sister, let me take care of the silver at home in the future. My brother can't keep the silver, and you are a girl, and you will be in charge of the house when you get married. Now you will take care of it." You practice practice."

Huali didn't reject Huamu, and carefully put away the money, "I'll give it to you when brother needs money in the future, and uncle, let's find a place to eat, I'm so hungry."

Li Da looked at the happy two siblings and felt relieved. His deceased sister was most worried about the two children before she died. In the past two years, he has also tried his best to help them, watching the two children day by day. Sensible, to be honest, he was really happy in his heart.

"Girl Li, uncle will take you to eat Chaos today."

Upon hearing the name Chaos, Huali couldn't help drooling. She really didn't expect that there are so many imaginary things similar to the earth in this time and space.

When she first came here, Huali thought she had returned to a certain dynasty, but when Huamu said that the dynasty she appeared in was the Ji Kingdom, Huali instantly became fortified.

She has never heard of the Ji Kingdom, and the life of human beings here is a bit like the ancient China. The food in this era is similar to the modern China. There are corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes and peppers, and the way of eating is similar to modern times. .

The only difference is that apart from food, there is nothing in the modern imagination.

Li Da drove the carriage to a stall on the side of the road and stopped.

Huali and the others jumped out of the carriage and took a small look at the roadside stall. At this time, there were already four or five people eating hot chaotic soup, and the low tables and stools did not affect the appetite of the diners.

And the owner of Chaos stall, an old man in his fifties, doesn't forget to continue taking care of Chaos in his spare time.

"How many guests are there?" The owner of the chaotic stall saw a customer coming, so he rushed up to greet him.

Li Hu hurriedly said, "Four of us, four of us, the boss can arrange a place for us."

The boss brought several people to an empty table and asked with a smile, "Do you want a big bowl or a small bowl?"

Huali always felt that this question was very interesting, so she raised her head and asked the boss, "Is there any difference between the big bowl and the small bowl?"

Seeing that Huali didn't understand, the boss explained enthusiastically, "This small bowl costs only three renminbi a bowl, but the big bowl costs four renminbi. I think a small bowl is enough for you, little girl. There are too many big bowls, and you can't finish it." It's not good to waste it."

For the boss's kind reminder, Huali is very useful, "Then you give us three big bowls and one small bowl."

After hearing this, the boss went to cook and eat.

Looking at the still snowy sky outside, Huali turned to Li Da and said, "Uncle, they buy pork again. I want to buy meat."

"Why does Li'er want to eat meat? There will be meat in the chaos later." Li Da rarely buys these things, usually he hunts prey on the mountain by himself, and when he really wants to eat, he peels one rabbit.

Huali actually just wanted to invite Li Kangshi and Li Da's family to dinner, but she was afraid that if she said it, Li Da would not let her buy it.

"Yes, uncle, I haven't eaten meat for a long time."

As soon as Huali mentioned this matter, Huamu felt guilty. Before the weather was cold, he had prepared money for the winter, but once Huahe was sick, and when he asked him to borrow it, Huahe said After a few soft words and crying a few times, he foolishly lent out the money, but he didn't know that the borrowed money would be borrowed but never repaid.

The money was originally intended to be used to buy rice, noodles and some expenses, but Hua He's family didn't return it, so Hua Mu and the others had to eat the sweet potatoes they had grown themselves.

Thinking of this, Huamu feels that he is still lucky. As long as the wild boar's money is saved, it will last half a year. Thinking of this, Huamu feels relieved.

Li Da felt a little sad when he heard Huali say this, "Didn't uncle buy you meat when you were sick?"

As soon as Li Da said this, Huamu lowered his head, while Huali looked at Huamu in surprise, "Did brother have such a thing?"

Huali knew that this brother must have softened his heart again at that time, and must have been cheated away by the group of top relatives at home.

Huamu was very embarrassed, and felt very guilty, "Well, when my uncle gave me the meat, my uncle saw it, and he snatched the pork from my hand without saying anything."

As soon as Huamu finished speaking, Huali patted the table with her hands in an atmosphere, "It's really shameless."

Huali's words made the diners in the chaotic stall look at her involuntarily, and Huali realized that she seemed to have overreacted just now.

Sitting down calmly, Huali had a gloomy face, "Brother, if something like this happens in the future, you will call me, and I will deal with them. They are really bullying."

Huamu feels even more guilty and uneasy when she looks at Huali like this. Huali can be so strong, it should be because watching him is useless, so that's why she is like this. If he is more useful, will Huali still be that innocent little girl?Is it still the carefree sister?
