Fast time travel: The villain male god keeps flirting

Chapter 245 "Little milk dog, too clingy (10)"

The two went to the market to sell firewood, and encountered officers and soldiers collecting taxes after the autumn harvest
"Oh, the rice in the rice jar has bottomed out, what can I do?" Shen said worriedly, the rice jar is the confidence in her heart, as the saying goes, don't panic when you have food in your hand, there are three of them in the family, but Food can't last for a few days.

Zhou Meng and Lu Lingye went to hunt pigweed and gather firewood together, while Shen was cooking at home. When the sun moved westward and the western sky was gradually filled with rays of light, both of them came back panting with big baskets on their backs.

"Mom, is the meal ready? I'm so hungry." Zhou Meng put down the basket and wiped her sweat.

Lu Lingye was also very tired. He let Zhou Meng carry the basket full of pigweed, and he carried heavier firewood. The rough hemp rope strangled his shoulders with blood. He bickered and joked with Zhou Meng.

"Auntie, I'm hungry too." He also shouted after Zhou Meng.

"Okay, the meal is ready, come and eat after a short break." They obediently washed their hands with water from the well, and didn't pay much attention to Shen's sad face.

When the two came to the main room, Zhou Meng saw the food and figured out what was going on as soon as she turned her head.

She didn't speak, and started eating silently with her rice bowl, trying to eat light vegetarian dishes, and didn't touch the only meaty braised eggplant braised meat on the square table at all.

"Ma'am, are we changing our tastes?" Lu Lingye wondered in his heart, and asked without thinking. Zhou Meng glared at him. Can this EQ become a powerful minister?Could it be that the emperor and other courtiers are all fools?

Indeed, there were only two dishes on the table, one was patted cucumbers, the other was braised eggplant, and the three not-so-exquisite porcelain bowls served rice soup instead of old rice. Shen was afraid that they would not be full, Specially steamed a few corn tortillas.

Seeing the faces of Shen Shi and Zhou Meng, Lu Lingye knew he had said something wrong, so he silently lowered his head.

Shen sighed softly, "Oh, we didn't harvest much food last year, and now our family doesn't have much food."

Zhou Meng thought about countless ways to make money for a moment, making paper, soap, glass... These were rare things in ancient times, and once they were invented, they would definitely make a lot of money!

However, ancient merchants were not easy to do. How could the little people in the mountains like theirs have the power to fight against those big merchants?

Not to mention, monopoly profiteering industries such as soap and glass!
Zhou Meng dismissed these thoughts honestly, but these thoughts were like seeds, which fell into her heart unintentionally.

Lu Lingye felt extremely uncomfortable. After all, it was because of him. He must have eaten up the Zhou family's food so well...

What can he do?
He questioned his heart.

Riding horses, hunting, playing...he can play what a dude can play, but he can't do business very well.

No, he knows a little martial arts, he can work as a nursing home for rich people and so on.

He raised his head suddenly, "Auntie, sister Qiao, let me take care of you."

"what?"

"what?"

The two were surprised one after the other.

Looking at their suspicious eyes, for some reason, a surge of courage suddenly surged in his heart.

He is the only man in this warm family, and he wants to be the pillar of the family.

He wanted Sister Qiao to always smile and never worry about daily necessities.

As soon as it was daylight, Lu Lingye got up early, dressed in the short brown linen clothes that farmers usually have, tied up his belt, tied up his trouser legs, put on soft cloth shoes, and drove the mountain road to the county town with two large loads of firewood on his back.

Zhou Village is surrounded by mountains. If you want to go out, the villagers who are familiar with the road will have to spend more than two hours on the road, and the road is relatively difficult, tortuous and muddy, so many people in the village can not go unless they have no other choice. If you don't go to the county seat, don't go to the county seat.

The sun just showed its face and shone on the young peasants on their way. Surrounded by green hills, the sky was high and the clouds were light. From a distance, it looked like a picture of a leisurely spring outing.

It's a pity that no one knows the heavy burden on the young man.

He gritted his teeth and persisted, his forehead was sweating, veins popped out on his neck, and his shoulders were strangled with deep bloodstains.

No one knew that this young man was once a young master who was well-clothed and well-fed. He did not touch the spring water with his ten fingers, ate delicacies from mountains and seas, and wore Sichuan embroidered suits. Even though his father didn't like him, he still lived a very wealthy life .

Now, everyone regards him as a humble and poor farm boy.

From cloud to mud, nothing more.

But Lu Lingye didn't think so, Zi Feiyu An knew Yu Zhile, what he wanted was not a rich life, but a warm home of his own.

After finally finding out the direction of the county seat, he rested for a while, and then rushed to the county seat without stopping, carrying firewood on his back.

"Xiao Langjun, do you sell firewood?" An old lady happened to return to the county from the outskirts of the city. When she saw the firewood of this young gentleman, she thought about the lack of firewood at home, so she hurried forward and asked.

The aunt's eyes were originally looking at the firewood, but she carefully looked at Lu Lingye, oh, this little man is really handsome, tall and handsome, he doesn't look like that country boy!
Lu Lingye didn't know what the price of firewood was, but he still said calmly, "Ma'am, you can give it to me at the previous price."

"A load of ten Wen, how about it?" said the aunt.

Ten pennies?How can it be so cheap?
You know, he used to eat far more than ten Wen for a meal, at least dozens of taels of silver!

However, the firewood he had worked so hard for a day was only a few dozen pennies?
"It's a bit small, ma'am, it's not easy for me to chop firewood, how about twelve coins?" He asked tentatively.

The aunt immediately changed her expression, "Bah, you think I'm a fool to ask for such an expensive price? Giving you a load of ten cents is already for the sake of your good looks."

The aunt who asked the price walked away angrily.

Lu Lingye smiled wryly, so this is life at the bottom?
No, this is just the beginning.

Panting, he came to the county town with a load on his shoulders, paid three Wen to enter the city, and asked countless shops and residents. The highest price was only twelve Wen a load, and the lowest was even eight Wen a load.

Selling to the highest restaurant, he gritted his teeth, touched the jade white pendant around his neck, and walked into the pawn shop.

He still chose to live, and he swore that he would redeem his mother's belongings in the future.

Holding the freshly baked 200 taels of silver bills, he took 100 taels and went to the restaurant to buy new tender and juicy braised pork.

Thinking of how Zhou Meng saw the meat, he secretly smiled.

He bought some more grain and carried it all the way home.

Hurrying quickly, he finally rushed back to Zhou's small courtyard before the sun set.

Before entering the door, he heard a commotion in the yard.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.
