Pastoral Pretty Lady

Chapter 12 Life is not easy

The thin monkey sighed, and continued: "All the food in our village is bought in the town or village. Our town and village are close to the border, in order to prevent neighboring countries from buying food and vegetables. Our county magistrate It is stipulated that grain stores should not sell more than 100 catties of grain at a time, and no more than 30 catties of vegetables at a time. They are only allowed to buy more grain and vegetables before the mountains are covered by heavy snow in winter. In this way, if it is to be transported out of the city or village, it is still It has to be checked carefully."

Hearing what the thin monkey said, Gu Xiaoyu couldn't help asking: "The regulations are so strict, what about some big families or restaurants?"

"Large families and restaurants usually let those stores deliver them directly. We can't let others deliver them in the case of our cottage. Usually, we usually go to the city to buy once in about ten days. When there is a lot of need, we will try to find a way to get them. Some landlords bought it at a high price. The Chinese cabbage we ate was bought from a landlord in the name of buying New Year’s goods last year when the Chinese New Year was approaching. This spring, there are few vegetables in the village, so we rely on cabbage to buy wild vegetables However, fortunately, here we rely on the mountains, we can usually hunt and hunt, and there is no shortage of meat. If there is no food, we only eat dried meat.”

After hearing this, Gu Xiaoyu sighed, all he could think was that the life in the village was hard, and the bandits all enjoyed food and drink spicy food. Looking at it now, the life of the bandits in Panlongling is also quite miserable.It's hard for them not to harm the people in such a situation.

Seeing Gu Xiaoyu like this, the thin monkey thought she disliked the cottage, and hurriedly said: "Actually, we all think this is pretty good. At least it won't be like a famine, and it won't be like a famine. It won't be like a famine. By the way, today It happened that the village owner brought a boy to the town to buy some grain and oil, and he should bring back some vegetables and fruits!"

After hearing this, Gu Xiaoyu smiled at her: "I thought you only feed the old people and children that kind of food, I made it difficult for you."

The thin monkey waved his hand: "It's okay! You can help us think of more food, I'm so happy that it's too late!"

Just after eating, the group of brats from the cottage rushed in:
"Sister Xiaoyu, sister Xiaoyu, I heard that your illness is still not cured, let's come and see you!"

"Sister Xiaoyu, look, these are the flowers I picked for you, your illness will be cured soon!"

"Sister Xiaoyu, hurry up, I want you to cook us more delicious food!"

The last little guy was only 4 years old, fat, and he looked like a snack. She licked her lips while talking.It seemed that he was reminiscing about the delicious food in the morning, but it made Gu Xiaoyu laugh out loud.

After hearing this, the thin monkey hated iron for being weak: "You little guy, why are you thinking about eating? I can't blame you for being so fat!"

After finishing speaking, he revealed the truth to Gu Xiaoyu: "This little guy is called Xiaopang, and he is also an orphan adopted by us. You can see that he is so fat, but he still likes to eat meat very much. Our village owner asked him, he is so fat. Why do you still eat meat? What did you say?"

"Oh? How did you say it?"

"He said that even if you are fat to death, you still have to eat meat!"

What the thin monkey said made Gu Xiaoyu and the other children laugh.Xiaopang seemed a little shy, turned around and ran out.

But as soon as he went out, he stumbled back and ran back: "The owner of the village is back, the owner of the village is back! He and Uncle Wang En bought a lot of oil and vegetables! They also bought candied haws, come out and eat!"

After hearing this, the children rushed out immediately...

For these children, Gu Xiaoyu still has a good impression.Although they are a little naughty, they are also very sensible.For example, Little Fatty, although he is a snack, but in front of delicious food, he did not forget to invite his partners to share.

Just thinking about it, Xia Tian rushed in.

After getting along with Xia Tian these two days, Gu Xiaoyu evaluated him as a precocious and warm man.Although he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, because of his past experience, he is extraordinarily stable and considerate. It is rare to see him with the heart of a child.

But today, he was in a hurry, full of sadness.

Gu Xiaoyu hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Xia, what's the matter? Why are you so anxious? What happened to the cottage?"

Xia Tian shook his head: "The cottage is nothing. My Panlongling has always been relatively low-key, and I don't bother the people. Even if I do business, I do those corrupt officials or evil people. And our cottage is hidden. The government is not willing to bother. This time something happened, I’m afraid it’s you!”

"How do you say that?" Could it be An Ran's matter?
"An's family collected ransom money to save people, but they couldn't find the gate of Luoyingpo's village. Hei Fatty asked a young man to tell them that you and An Ran escaped by taking advantage of yesterday's mountain torrents. Now the government and An's family are looking for you everywhere. Everywhere in the city Not to mention the portraits all over the place, there is another reward, 10 taels of silver for anyone who finds you, and 20 taels of silver for anyone who finds you! If you go down the mountain now, I’m afraid you will be sent to An’s house right away.”

After hearing Xia Tian's words, Gu Xiaoyu frowned.Although he had expected that An Ran's death might cause some troubles to him, he never expected that the portraits would be posted all over the city.That's right, the An family didn't care about this daughter-in-law, but they still cared about the eldest grandson, An Ran.Hey, whether it's in the previous life or in this life, for her, I'm afraid no relatives care about her so much!But it is very rare for Xia Tian to take care of himself like this.

She smiled wryly, and said, "I also guessed that there might be some trouble, but I didn't expect it to be so big. Brother Xia, I'm sorry, this matter has caused you to worry about me."

After hearing this, Xia Tian pretended to be annoyed: "Xiao Yu, how could you be so alien to me? Not to mention that we have known each other since we were young, even if we just met yesterday, you can treat An Ran so proudly, and then you can graciously agree to hand over to Xiao Yu." I can't ignore your business how the monkey gets food. In fact, I wanted to tell you that since you have nowhere to go now, you might as well stay in the cottage and I will support you!"

It has to be said that Gu Xiaoyu's heart beat a few more times when a warm-hearted man with outstanding looks said such words to him.Um, handsome, so handsome.

However, immediately, she regained her sanity from the nympho state.

Facing the momentum of Anjia, she can only hide now. If she is discovered, it will be difficult for her to explain this matter clearly.What if she was beheaded under the name of a murderer, or if she was made to be a widow for An Ran for the rest of her life, how wronged she would be!

And this cottage is a good hiding place.She likes it here, and also likes those brats, why doesn't she stay?

Thinking of this, she nodded: "Brother Xia, I will not be polite. However, since I stay in the cottage, I will definitely not eat and drink for nothing, and I will contribute a little bit."

Xia Tian was afraid that Gu Xiaoyu would dislike them and these bandits would not agree, so she was very happy to hear her say that: "That's it, I'll discuss it with other family members in the village."

At this moment, an arrogant male voice suddenly came from the door: "Village Master, I don't agree with her staying!"
