The wealth of rebirth is deep in the mountains

Chapter 114 Brothers Meet
The shop in the city has already been settled, and Xiaodao took an additional 50 taels of silver notes from Xiaomi, and brought two young people who had been friends with him on weekdays to live in the shop directly.

Shopkeeper Chen helped to see this shop. Although it is located on the busiest commercial street from time to time, it is not far away.There are two facades in the front, and the yard in the back is still spacious.There are two wing rooms on the left and right, which are convenient for storage or living.The most important thing is that there is a well in the corner of the courtyard, so you don't have to go to the neighbor's house to fetch water.

Xiaodao is very ambitious, repairing, cleaning, transporting goods, keeping accounts, these are all done by himself with his two younger generations.Whenever there is something he doesn't understand, he runs to Chen's house, learning while asking, busy like an ant before the rainy season.

After a few days like this, when he returned to the village, Xiaomi was shocked.

There is no other reason. When they went down the mountain, they were three strong young people. When they came back, they turned into thin monkeys.

It happened that Aunt Liu sent some mountain goods to Xiaomi. Seeing her son like this, she felt very distressed.Xiaomi asked the reason, but Xiao Dao didn't care, and replied, "The other ones are okay, but no one cooks for them. The three of us took a bite, and they were either mushy or undercooked!"

Xiaomi felt guilty when she heard that, although she tried her best to keep herself busy these few days, she still didn't put all her thoughts at home.

"How about this, is there any aunt or aunt in the village, who has nothing to worry about at home, and goes to the shop to wash and cook for Brother Xiaodao and the others, and the wages can be compared to the sisters-in-law who work in the thatched hut down the mountain."

Aunt Liu originally wanted to go by herself, but the daughter-in-law had just given birth to a young grandson, the eldest grandson was studying, and both the man and the eldest son were too busy, so she couldn't leave.Hearing Xiaomi's words, she thought about it.Not to mention, she really thought of someone.

It turned out that the Guo family in the village had a girl named Honggu who married out more than ten years ago, gave birth to a child but died at the age of eight, her husband's family bought a concubine for the man, and she went back to the old man with Li in a rage. Bear Ridge.Although her brother and sister-in-law treated her very well, Honggu was a hard-headed person who was good at hunting in the mountains, catching fish in the river, and farming.The only thing is that he doesn't like to talk and doesn't want to meet people.Even though the ups and downs are so lively now, she has never joined the party.

After hearing the whole story, Xiaomi felt sympathetic, and said, "You don't need to show your face when you go to the shop, as long as you take care of Brother Xiaodao and the others' basic necessities. Why don't you go and ask, auntie?"

"Okay, I'll go right now."

It was about her son's food and clothing, Aunt Liu was not in a hurry, so she immediately went to Guo's house.

Xiaomi has always been kind and generous to others, and he is trusted by the villagers, and the shop is full of young people from the village, there are no outsiders.

When she got to the shop, she cooked and washed clothes, tidied up the house, cleaned the yard, and even took care of tidying up the warehouse.

The villagers saw that the Lu family opened a workshop and warehouse, shipped vermicelli and cornstarch, and they also took out their own treasures from the bottom of the box.

A piece of white fox fur from yours, two sables from mine, wolf fur from his family, dried mushrooms, wild fungus, all kinds of walnuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, whatever you can think of, I packed them up and sent them to the shop.

Speaking of which, this shop is no different from our own business.In the future, if you don't need to tie up a bullock cart when you go to the city, you will be looked down upon by others, and you will be sent directly to the backyard of the shop. The fodder is ready and you will be given water to drink.In case it gets late and can't make it back, you can still sleep in the shop, feeling at ease and at ease.

Thanks to the hard work of the whole village, the greenhouse on Laoxiong Ridge has been completely built.

All of a sudden, every household has a smoking chimney and a small house that is as warm as spring.

The women were careful, and stopped working in the powder workshop, so they learned how to grow vegetables from Xiaomi.

How to prepare subsoil, how to breed and germinate, and how to water, really, as Xiaomi said, as long as you are willing and diligent enough, you can learn it easily.

Seeing this, the men gathered together to discuss, and before it snowed, they hurried into the mountains to hunt a few more times, shaved their furs and sent them to the shop, supported the pocket knives, and added some income to the family.

The most important thing is to look for their sense of existence as the pillars of the family. Of course, no one said this.

Not to mention how busy Lao Xiongling was, and how he worked together to get rich, but only said that Lu's second child hit the horse and ran to the wilderness academy.Originally, it was two horses instead, and he brought food from the family, and when he was extremely sleepy at night, he found a tree hole for a night, and he didn't even go for a night, so he arrived in two days.

Today is not a day for the academy to take a rest, and the weather is also cold, so the small town outside the wasteland academy is a bit deserted.

Lu's second son rode over, which aroused everyone's curiosity.

When he arrived at the side door of the academy, he was about to yell, but suddenly remembered his little sister's instructions, so he took out a handful of copper coins from his pocket and handed them over.

"This little brother, my brother's surname is Lu Mingqian, and he is your mountain chief's closed disciple. I came to tell you something about my family, please help me to spread the news."

He was used to being rough and bold, and it was rare for him to say something in such a polite way. The doorman didn't think much of it, but it made him feel awkward.

Since the young man guarded the door, he is naturally familiar with the inside and outside of the academy. How could he not recognize the closed disciple of the head of the mountain, so he quickly collected the copper coins and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, big brother, I will report it right away. You just Take the horse and sit at the tea stand outside the back door, it is convenient to stay in a shop nearby. Then I will ask Mr. Lu to look for you there."

"Okay, thank you, little brother."

Lu Er Er grinned, led the horse around and finally found the back door of the academy.

For some reason, Lu Qian came so fast that he was already waiting at the door.Seeing the second brother's face covered in dust and haggard, he was startled, remembering what happened to Du Youcai last time, so he said, "Second brother, but something is going on at home?"

Gouzi also jumped up and down worriedly, "Second Young Master, are you the only one here?"

Lu Laoer waved his hand and shouted, "The house is fine, give me a sip of water quickly, I've been thirsty all the way."

Lu Lao San pulled him to sit by the wooden table of the tea stand, and ordered a pot of warm tea. Lu Lao Er drank it heartily, and finally said, "The jujube tea is not as good as millet tossing."

Lu Laosan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it, but he was relieved. Since the second brother still has the heart to taste tea, it's not a bad thing to come this time.

The dog had a good nose, pulled the two horses, patted the big baskets on both sides of the saddle, and asked with a smile, "Second young master, miss asked you to bring food for our young master again?"

"That's right," Lu Er Er complained, "I packed four full baskets, and I ate half of the baskets on the way, so the rest is here."

Gouzi grinned. He didn't know if he was surprised that Lu Er Er could eat so much, or because he felt sorry for the delicious food that ruined his mouth, but when he thought of the other two foodies in the academy, he immediately suggested, "Young master, you sit with the second young master. I'll move things in first."

"Go," Lu San didn't know what this kid was thinking, and waved his hands with a smile, but Lu Er shouted, "Save some for me, I still have to eat on the way back."

It's a pity that Gouzi's ears are stuffed with chicken feathers, so he can't hear a word at all.

Lu Er Er laughed and scolded a few words, that's fine, he is an older brother, so naturally he loves his younger brother.

Lu Laosan looked at the tea stand, except for the old man who sold tea, there were no outsiders, and then asked, "What's the matter, little sister, why did I ask my second brother to come all the way?"

Lu Er Er unwrapped the package on his back, took out the envelope that he kept close to him and gave it to his younger brother, "Look for yourself, I don't understand."

Third Lu opened the letter and read it, but he showed a smile, "It's a pity for our little sister. If it's a man, I'm afraid the Lu family will definitely rely on her to make their family famous."

"What's wrong with the girl, now our family depends entirely on my little sister."

Lu Er Er didn't care, as if it was only natural for the little sister to be in charge of the family, and she didn't have the self-consciousness of being an elder brother.

Lu Laosan also argued with his brother, and after thinking about it, he said, "I need to arrange this matter. Second brother, you stay nearby first, and I will come to you at night."

Lu Er Er remembered that the college did not allow students to stay outside, and his younger brother said that it proved that he usually had a good time in the college.

So, he pointed to the inn called Ping An on the opposite side, and said, "I'm staying here, my little sister brought me money, don't worry about it. Go and do your work!"

"it is good."

The two brothers separated, and Lu San went straight back to his dormitory.

Gouzi is sweating profusely from work, and the family sent a lot of food and necessities this time. The clothes are good, and it is not easy for anyone to share them, but the food is not enough, and it is easy to attract wolves.

He was so busy, he wished he could hide everything.

Lu Laosan glanced at the four wicker baskets on the ground, and saw that there were four or five kinds of dim sum and a lot of dried sausages, but there were only two jars of meat in the altar, guessing that the little girl must be worried that it would not be easy to carry on the road.So he pondered for a while, and said, "Pack a box of snacks, a box of dry sausages, and a jar of altar meat. I will send them to Mr. Xiaojing."

Gouzi had a bitter face when he heard the words, and his heart ached, but he also knew that this matter could not be avoided, so he dawdled and began to prepare.

Lu Qian tapped him and said with a smile, "Don't be so weird, hurry up and get ready. Besides, Xiaomi will definitely be preparing for Ziheng and Buqi, so don't be greedy and lose your manners."

"Yes, sir."

Gouzi's face became even more bitter, and he didn't dare to stop.

Now there are still a few months before the big exam next spring, but all the students who take the exam have no fixed homework, most of them are the husband who made the thesis, they wrote the article and handed it in, and the husband gave pointers, but they are more free and easy.

Lu Qian had only been taught by the head of the mountain yesterday, and he came to the door again today, which made the old servant at the gate very strange.But when he saw that the servant behind him was holding something in his hand, he laughed.

"Young Master Lu, go in quickly, the master was still talking about you just now."

Lu Qian saluted with a smile, and took out an oiled paper bag from his sleeve and handed it over, "Lu Bo, my little sister brought some food over. These are a few pieces of snacks to honor you alone, please don't be disgusted."

This old servant was brought by the old dean from his family. It is said that he has served by his side for many years, and he is very much relied on by the old dean. He has never neglected Lu Qian because he came from a poor family. Uncle, very respectful.

"Yeah, I still have my share, so thank you, Mr. Lu, for thinking about it."

The old servant smiled and accepted the oiled paper package, and finally led Lu Qian's master and servant in.
