Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Liu Yu heard what Liu Yan said and pointed to the fried longevity fruit in the bamboo plaque under the eaves.

"When we went to buy Wuzui yesterday, my grandpa and grandma didn't stop either. They were fried in the past two days."

"Okay, our two companies have also sold out. Let's strike while the iron is hot and get up early tomorrow to sell out what we have."

Nian was looking for old clothes in the house. It was getting colder and colder every day. The weather was just fine these days. When it started to rain, it would become completely cold.

When the weather is good, I need to take out my cotton clothes, cotton trousers, and thick mattresses to dry them in the sun to remove the moisture and the smell of the cabinets that lasted all summer and autumn.

At this moment, he heard the arrival of his two grandsons and walked out of the door. He said to them: "When I was settling the accounts earlier, I forgot to include the money that your grandfather paid for renting the cattle from Huang Laosan's family. You guys have an idea in your mind. This time If you borrow cows again, you have to keep them with you when you divide the money."

When the two heard that this was the case, they nodded quickly and said, "That's right."

After finishing the matter, the two of them didn't stay much longer. Farmers rarely have time to spare all year round, so the two of them had to rush up the mountain to pick up some dead branches to keep warm in the winter.

...............

When the rooster crowed on the second day, Liu Yu was already dressed neatly. After washing herself, she tied a forehead band on her forehead as usual.

Seeing nothing wrong with the water shadow in the basin, I walked out.

The first night, the first and third rooms delivered all the roasted longevity fruits, and Liu Yu pulled the cart over.

He moved bags of fried longevity fruits from the house to the car, and when Liu Fusheng borrowed the cow back, Liu Maoye happened to come over with Liu Fan, Liu Yan and Liu Shan.

Without any delay, they put all the things in the car, including the food boxes from Pei Lan's restaurant and a bag of chestnuts for Pei Lan.

Liu Maoye held the cow rope, Liu Yu held the torch, and they set off.

Apart from giving the cattle some water to drink along the way, everyone didn't stop much. They hurried and hurried slowly and finally arrived at Xiawuzui in the middle of the hour.

Several people led the oxcart and rushed straight to the stone bridge where they went last time. Several people were already waiting under the locust tree beside the bridge.

Seeing Liu Yu and his party coming across the bridge, he hurriedly waved: "Why are you here so late, little brother? We have been waiting for a long time."

They came to the town in the morning, and this was the first place they arrived. Seeing that a few people didn't come, they went to buy other things first, and finally visited the entire market town.

I originally thought I would go home if I couldn't wait any longer.

Fortunately, the longevity fruit seller finally came.

"Sorry, sorry, our home is thirty miles away from here. I got up in the middle of the night, but I didn't expect to be late."

After Liu Maoye stopped the bullock cart, he apologized to the waiting people.

As soon as they heard that they had traveled thirty miles to come, their anger disappeared. It was no wonder that such a long journey was not easy.

No one would suffer this if they were not doing it for a living.

Liu Yu and the others quickly opened their pockets, took out the scale, and first scooped out a ladle and put it in the dustpan.

Liu Yu crushed a dozen of them with her hands and pushed the dustpan forward.

"Thank you all, uncles and grandpas, for supporting us. It was newly fried here yesterday and the taste is exactly the same. You all should try it."

The few people were not polite, each pinched some and began to taste it carefully: "Well, not bad, the taste is still the same, the more you eat, the more delicious it becomes."

The taste was right, and several of them were not short of money, so Liu Maoye started weighing the food with three jins for you and five jins for me.

After the first portion was weighed, Liu Yu took the oil paper bag and asked how much it needed to be crushed.

The old customer hesitated a little: "Young man, are your hands okay? Otherwise, I'd better go home and smash the bricks myself. It will taste just as delicious if I smash them myself."

Liu Yu was stunned, her heart warmed slightly, she shook her head and said with a smile: "I am naturally stronger than others, so you don't have to worry."

After saying that, he started to squeeze it, and when it was about a third of the way, the old man stopped him.

"That's it. If you can't finish it all at once, it will easily become damp and it won't taste crispy."

Yesterday, a vendor came to town selling longevity fruit. In order to sell the fruit, he had to crush the hard and strong fruit shell with his bare hands.

The news spread quickly, and some people who didn't know it originally heard about it a little bit. The shop owners in the town who didn't catch up were all curious to inquire about it.

When they heard that there was such a ruthless person, everyone was curious. As soon as Liu Yu and the others stepped into Xiawuzui today, the customer who bought longevity fruit yesterday recognized him.

Everyone said they knew it from the neighbors next door, but within two-quarters of an hour, the cart was surrounded by water.

There are those who really like this food, mostly just to watch the fun. In the end, whether they are watching the fun or looking at the strangeness, they all buy more or less, ranging from one pound to five or six pounds.

Liu Yu and others have gone through yesterday's experience. Although today is busier than yesterday, they are busy in an orderly manner and there is no trouble.

After about an hour of touching, Liu Shan began to shout loudly: "No more, no more, the last few kilograms have been sold, don't wait any longer."

"How can you be so dishonest, young man? Isn't there a bag left on the ground behind you?"

"That's not it, that's chestnut, we gave it away to others."

Everyone heard that it was given as a gift, so they forgot about it. The young man started to make noises and asked them to take out the chestnuts and sell some.

They rarely have chestnuts here, and when cooked, chestnuts are pink and glutinous, delicious and filling. If the price is right, it doesn't hurt to buy some.

"It really doesn't work. We were rushing home a while ago, and a kind person gave us a meal. This was given to him. If we sell it, we would be rude." Liu Fan came up to smooth things over.

The older ones liked to hear these polite words. After confirming the Liu family's gratitude, they turned around and gave some advice to the young man who was shouting "Huan".

Let them know how to respect the old and love the young, and don't let outsiders think that they don't know polite words, so that a few young people will run away.

"Young man, we can wait for you when you come back. You can bring some chestnuts next time. We don't have many chestnut trees here, so you have to try your luck if you want to eat fresh ones."

Liu Maoye and others looked at Liu Yu, waiting for him to speak. After all, these people came here to see the walnuts crushed with their bare hands.

"I'm afraid it will take a few days. To be honest, chestnuts are not bad. You can always pick them up if you work harder. The longevity fruit is very hard to find. There are only a few trees in total, and the fruits they bear are countless. .”

Liu Yu estimated the remaining walnuts on the tree and said vaguely without daring to confirm.

Everyone nodded when they heard that there was still something to sell, but they were afraid that Liu Yu and the others would come at some unknown time and miss it, so they ordered three kilograms for you and five kilograms for me.

"Let's do this. You guys name a trustworthy store. When the time comes, we will deliver the items there. You can just go and get them. As for the deposit, forget about it. Each of you should hand over the money to the store owner in advance, and he will transfer it to us. , Don’t worry, the scale will still be high.”

Most of the people who want to make reservations are shop owners in the town, and everyone in the neighborhood is familiar with them. It is easy to recommend a trustworthy person to collect a few kilograms of longevity fruit on their behalf.

This is a good idea. To be honest, they are just acquaintances with Liu Yu and others. They asked them to pay the deposit in advance. They are also afraid that Liu Yu and others will run away. Although they don't have much money, it would be bad to be deceived and treated as fools. The heart is not.
