"Xiao Jun'er, what are you talking about? What is the sixth-grade wild ginseng?"

Zhao Yejun's mother came back from get off work, wearing an apron and preparing to cook.

"A friend of mine from the Northeast sent a telegram saying that he had a six-grade wild ginseng tree and asked me if I wanted it."

Zhao Yejun spoke very quickly and quickly explained the matter.

He looked at the dark sky outside and regretted that he came back late. The post office was already off work and he could only wait until tomorrow to contact Xu Dahai.

"I can't leave these two days, Mom, why don't you go to the Northeast for me?

Buy that six-grade wild ginseng tree and give it to grandma and grandpa and the others. They will definitely be happy. "

"What nonsense are you kidding!? I'm not going to work anymore?"

Zhao Yejun's mother was very happy when she heard that she was going to give ginseng to her parents, but she was even more frightened when she was asked to go to the Northeast.

……

The next evening, there was a gorgeous sunset on the horizon.

Xu Dahai was taking Xiao Tingzi to his mother's yard, chatting with his grandma.

"Grandma, look, this is the photo I took for you."

"What?"

Grandma's eyes were dazzled, and she could only see the photo clearly with the help of the dim light. She saw that she was wearing a gray gown and a blue cloth turban, standing on the edge of the vegetable patch.

On the left are two ripe straw flowers, also called Yi Zhang Hong, which are as tall as one person. Their large clusters of pink or red flowers are in full bloom.

"Oh, when did you take the photo? I'm old and no longer look like a human being."

Grandma was so happy that she burst into laughter and felt that taking pictures was very novel.

My mother was cooking, so she also walked in with a smile and looked at the photos together.

Sudden.

There were footsteps outside the yard, and several dogs ran in first, followed by Wang Xiuxiu:

"Xiaohai, the postman sent a telegram from Yanjing."

Thinking it was something important, my mother and grandma stopped talking and started to stay quiet.

"Let me see."

Xu Dahai took the telegram and found that it was indeed sent by Zhao Yejun.

It was just that there were more than two hundred words on it, full of apologies, saying that he couldn't get away, and hoped that Xu Dahai could take ginseng to Yanjing to trade in Yanjing, and he had prepared good wine and food.

"Hey! This guy Zhao Yejun, do I need his drink?"

Xu Dahai laughed and cursed.

But if you think about it carefully, you can also go to Yanjing. Firstly, you can trade ginseng and make a lot of money. Secondly, you can see your courtyards. Thirdly, you can have some fun in Yanjing with your wife Wang Xiuxiu. .

It's really relaxing to stay in the countryside.

But after staying for a long time, it is inevitable that I will feel a little bored, so I just went to Yanjing to relax.

Go back to your own courtyard for dinner.

Sitting cross-legged at the kang table, eating steamed rice with steamed pork belly, he expressed his thoughts.

Wang Xiuxiu used her little fingers to tuck the broken hair around her ears, and she was also very moved:

"Xiao Tingzi still has to go to school. We went to play. Why don't we leave her at home alone?"

"She... let her go to her nursery to eat, and sleep with Xiaoxiang, Xiaohua and the others."

Xu Dahai wanted the little girl to take leave, but considering that the final exam was coming soon, he decided to forget it.

Wang Xiuxiu burst into laughter.

"Humph!"

The little girl pouted dissatisfiedly and touched the big fat cat next to her.

"You still have to study, there's nothing you can do about it... Don't worry, your dad and I will bring you delicious food when we come back."

Wang Xiuxiu quickly touched her daughter's little head and comforted her with a smile.

Silent all night.

In the morning, it was misty and the dogs were still sleeping. Many diligent villagers had already driven their ox carts to work in the fields.

"Moo~"

The old scalper barked, and the melodious voice floated in the village.

Xu Dahai turned left and right in the village, went to Changgong Yang Wei's country, put down the key, and told him that he and his wife were going to Yanjing.

After returning, he drove Wang Xiuxiu away on a motorcycle.

"The fog is really heavy! Please ride slower."

"Well, the sun will come out in a while and the fog will dissipate."

The dirt road was full of potholes, and the motorcycle was very bumpy when driving on it.

Xu Dahai couldn't help but miss the roads of later generations.

The road is so flat, it’s so fun to ride a motorcycle on it!

Even if you don't ride a motorcycle, you'll feel much more comfortable riding a [-]-bar or walking.

"Today is the Longxing Township Fair."

After arriving in Longxing Township, there were too many people at the market, so we pushed the motorcycle away.

First, I went to my father-in-law’s house, put down the basket of goose eggs I brought, and temporarily stored the motorcycle here.

Then take the train to the county seat, then to the city, and reverse to Yanjing.

……

"We've passed Shanhaiguan again."

It was another night. Xu Dahai, who had taken the train through Shanhaiguan many times, was able to remain calm, but there were many people on the car who were going to Guanli for the first time, and their faces were pressed against the car glass to look out.

Chatting non-stop.

Wang Xiuxiu hugged Xu Dahai's arm and said with a smile: "Everyone is so happy."

"Yes, after passing Shanhaiguan, you will soon reach Yanjing."

After arriving in Yanjing, they took a taxi directly to a courtyard house in Xicheng District. The main bedroom in the main room was fully covered with bedding. The two of them were sleepy and tired, so they quickly lay down on the kang and took a nap.

The sun is tilting a little bit.

It was around three o'clock in the afternoon.

There was a sound of footsteps in the yard, followed by Lao Dian's voice full of surprise: "My boss? Is my boss here?"

"Old lunatic?"

Xu Dahai quickly put on his clothes and shoes and came out.

I saw the old man wearing a coarse cloth gown, with his sleeves rolled up, and his old face full of smiles.

"Master, when did you arrive?"

"I arrived in the morning. After a good sleep, I didn't expect it to be almost three-thirty now? Come on, let's go buy some food on the street."

Wang Xiuxiu was still getting dressed, but Xu Dahai didn't let Lao Dian enter the house and took him directly outside the courtyard.

Come out of the alley.

Entering the main street, under the guidance of Lao Dian, we walked all the way to a small restaurant.

“Boss, even though this store is quite small, the food it cooks is quite delicious and the price is cheap!

It would be nice if I came here in the morning. There is tofu curd, which is delicious. "

The small restaurant was only a dozen square meters and was simply decorated. Lao Dian walked in with Xu Dahai, raising his head and loudly calling to his mother-in-law to come over and order.

"Old man, are you bringing your friends over? What do you want to eat?"

The plump boss lady had a pimple at the corner of her mouth. She immediately came over with a smile and a clear and cheerful voice.

It's not dinner time now.

In addition, my wife Wang Xiuxiu was still waiting at home, so I simply ordered two cold dishes and two portions of rice, packed them up and took them home to eat.

on the way back.

Xu Dahai smiled and said: "Old man, how are you doing in Yanjing recently?"

"How's it going? Hey, there are more and more foreign devils! There are even more fake foreign devils!"

Laodian was half a body behind Xu Dahai, with a sullen look on his face:

"This world... I can't see through it. I managed to beat them away back then, but now why are they allowed to come in so arrogantly? ?

I heard you were invited to come in! Then why did you beat them away in the first place..."

"Hahaha~"

Xu Dahai laughed instantly, but then asked: "Has the price of pork in Yanjing dropped?"

"Yes! The price per pound has dropped by [-] cents, which is a good thing. The price of chicken has also dropped."

The old man soon became happy again.

After chatting and eating all the way back to the courtyard, Wang Xiuxiu took the food, put it on the plate, and set the table.
