The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 540 Defense (5)
Xiao Mingyu didn't expect that Mrs. Han was worried about her marriage, and was moved.Leaning on Han's body, she said, "Mother, don't worry too much. Now that the income is limited, the expenses cannot be reduced. Save as much as you can."

"Mother knows. When we get to the capital, we have to find a way to buy some property. We can't just sit and eat. Fortunately, when we left the capital, mother brought out all the private houses. Otherwise, our mother's life would be really worrying." Han Shi sighed again. "Ming Yu, mother knows that you are capable, but you are a girl after all, so you should pay more attention so as not to ruin your reputation, you know?"

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "Mother, don't worry, my daughter knows."

Xiao Mingyu was not as far ahead as Han Shi thought, and he didn't have a precise understanding of the rules of the capital.What Xiao Mingyu is thinking now is that since he has no money, he should find a way to make money when he gets to the capital.Since there is no door in the family, let her do it.Since it is possible to suffer all kinds of criticism and ridicule, you should be mentally prepared early to avoid being watched by those people.

As for the marriage, Xiao Maoyang is gone, she has become a child without a father, and her family business has also declined.Marrying Zhou Qian, I never thought about it before, and Xiao Mingyu doesn't even think about it now, it's completely impossible.After a few years, if you have to marry someone, then find a reliable, responsible and self-motivated person with a relatively simple family.As for the relationship, let's develop it slowly after marriage.

Xiao Mingyu's thoughts are very realistic and cold, but Xiao Mingyu is not suffering, not only is she not suffering, but she can also get happiness from it.Isn't it a happy thing to plan your own life and manage your own life?
I had no dreams all night, woke up the next morning, had breakfast, took advantage of the sun to come out, and took out all the bedding and clothes to dry.The women take out the dirty clothes and wash them.

Han took Cheng Geer to sit in the yard to bask in the sun, and Lu Si also fed Kang Geer out.Of these two people, one has a dead husband, and the other has a husband, which is equivalent to not having a husband, and they both have such a small child. Although they are separated by generations, they also have a common language.The two sat together and talked about raising children. Han Shi taught Lu Si his experience, and Lu Si listened attentively.

Mrs. Tan was helped out by the mothers-in-law.After raising her for so long, although she has not recovered yet, she can barely walk a few steps.

Han said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is here, sit down."

Mrs. Tan sat down and looked around, "When did you two get so familiar with each other? Let's see how happy you are chatting and what you're talking about."

Lu Si was a little afraid of Mrs. Tan, so Mrs. Han said for her, "What else can we talk about, isn't it just about how to raise children. Sister-in-law's legs are much better."

Tan stretched her legs and nodded, "It's much better. I can get out of bed and take a few steps. But the doctor also said that I try not to move my legs and don't put pressure on them. But I just feel stuffy when I lie on the bed. See The weather is so nice, let’s go out and have a look.”

"Sister-in-law should come out and take a look. I haven't seen my sister-in-law for a long time, and she has become quite haggard."

Tan sighed, can she not be haggard?Glaring at Lu Si, Lu Si didn't lift his eyelids, hugged the child tightly, and didn't say a word.

Han knew it well, "Sister-in-law still needs to relax, children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

Tan smiled, "Yeah, the fifth brother and sister can think about it, and the fifth brother has only left for a few days, and the fifth brother and sister have figured it out, and they can live their lives as they want."

Han said, "So what if it's not like this. Is it really good to wash your face with tears every day? The dead die, and everything disappears once they die. It's just that the living have to go on living. It's hard to hurt Inevitably, how can I still be sad and sad every day. The children are still young, if I don’t stand up, relying on Mingyu alone, my mother is too incompetent. Sister-in-law, don’t you think? ?”

"The words of the fifth sibling always make sense. When we arrive in the capital, it will be the territory of the Han family. Then the life of the fifth sibling will naturally be the best among us." Tan said slightly sourly.

Han sneered, "Sister-in-law is wrong. My husband passed away, so I naturally want to keep the festival for him."

Tan shi raised her eyebrows and looked at Han shi strangely.However, Han's behavior has always been a little weird, and Tan doesn't pursue it.The three of them had their own thoughts, so naturally they couldn't talk together, and they broke up after a while.

Xiao Mingzhen came back with three big carts of goods, including vegetables, fruits, grains, cloth, and medicinal materials.Xiao Mingzhen went to see Xiao Mingyu, but now that he encountered something, he could only discuss it with Xiao Mingyu.Xiao Mingzhen said with a sad face, "All prices have increased, more than three or four times. If it doesn't rain, I think it will go up even more. It may be ten times or twenty times by then. Even the price of medicinal materials has doubled." many."

"This is natural. After a major disaster, there will be a major epidemic, and medicinal materials will be the most valuable at that time. With those speculators, it is estimated that this society has already started hoarding medicinal materials."

Xiao Mingzhen nodded, deeply convinced, "You're right, when I went to buy medicinal materials today, I met that speculator. I took the medicine according to the prescription and bought all the medicinal materials in the medicine shop. I asked about the work in the medicine shop , Those medicinal materials are used to prevent and cure epidemics. These people are very hateful."

Xiao Mingyu thought for a while, "Third brother, since we are not in a hurry to leave now, you have to work hard again and bring people back to buy as much medicinal materials and food as possible. If there are not enough carriages, buy a few more carriages. If the guards If not enough, we will recruit some more guards."

Xiao Mingzhen looked at Xiao Mingyu suspiciously, "Sister Mingyu, what are you worried about?"

"I am worried about riots, and I am even more worried about famine." Xiao Mingyu said bluntly. "We still have a lot of distance from the capital, and we haven't even walked halfway. Look at the meaning of God, this year, we don't plan to let people have a peaceful life. I am worried that if we go further, we will not be able to buy food if we have money." Just in case, I have to make more preparations."

Although Xiao Mingzhen felt that Xiao Mingyu was worrying too much, he still followed his advice.In short, it is best to take precautions before they happen, and it is best if it does not happen.If the situation Xiao Mingyu said really happened, he would not panic if he had prepared and had food.

On this day, Xiao Mingzhen went back and forth on the way to buy grain.In the end, those grain merchants seemed to have sensed something. When they saw Xiao Mingzhen, they either closed their doors directly, or bluntly said that there was no food.Even though there is still a lot of grain in the warehouse, he refuses to sell another grain of rice.

All the grain merchants unite and are reluctant to sell, and the price of grain rises like a wind, which Xiao Mingyu did not expect in advance.The Xiao family actually acted as the driving force behind the rise in food prices, which indirectly brought a lot of trouble to the lives of the local people.If the common people knew that the cause of the incident was just because the Xiao family wanted to hoard more food, they would definitely chop it up with a kitchen knife.

Fortunately, the Xiao family ran fast.Stayed in the inn for another night, and set off early in the morning to continue walking towards the capital.Because there are a lot of supplies, the convoy has also been stretched and the speed has slowed down.
