Chapter 489 Wild Wine

When they came to the carriage, several people helped load the carriage. While loading, they frequently looked at the horse and the gorgeously decorated carriage.

"My dear, second brother, it's a carriage!"

"Look at that horse, it's so fat and strong, it's so well-kept!"

"I don't dare to think about horses. I just want to buy a cow head anytime. It doesn't matter whether it's a buffalo or a scalper!"

"In our place, even the cows can only carry one load, unlike here, where the road leads to home!"

"That's right! Our road is fine for people to walk on, but ox carts cannot pass. If the road can be opened, it will be much easier for us to get in and out."

"The road will be clear," Mr. Su whispered softly, and then urged, "You guys, please work harder, it will be dark if you go back to the ink."

They all heard the voice of Chang Ce not far away. Chang Ce returned to the carriage with a normal expression and took over the box he had prepared in advance.

"This is a little bit of our adults' wishes."

When she didn't answer, he added, "It's not anything valuable, just some ordinary pastries."

Su Ziling glanced at Shiba, and he immediately understood, "Give it to me."

Su Ziling looked at Chang Ce and said, "Thank you Master Shen for me." After saying that, she handed him the basket in her hand.

"This is the preserved egg we made ourselves. We eat it with the pepper. I have written down how to eat it. If you adults can't eat spicy food, you have to put less pepper."

Seeing him take the basket, Su Ziling carefully placed the basket on the ground and took out a jar of wine.

"This is the fruit wine I brewed myself. I want to thank Mr. Shen for taking care of me."

Chang Ce nodded in agreement.

Then I heard Su Ziling continue to say: "There are seven hundred kilograms of vermicelli packed in total. They are all bundled inside, one handful per kilogram, and the ingredients and other ingredients are also placed separately."

She paused and continued: "The originally agreed price was five hundred kilograms. If we can't get that much..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Chang Ce, "Miss Su, you are worrying too much. If you want to get something, we adults have a lot of people in our family, so naturally we will have to do whatever it takes."

As he said that, he took out two silver notes from his arms and handed them to Su Ziling, "Miss Su, this is the remaining silver."

Su Ziling took a look and saw two pieces worth one hundred taels. She shook her head and said, "The vermicelli is two hundred taels per catty. Seven hundred jins is a total of 140 taels of silver. Your young master already gave me one hundred taels of silver earlier. You only need to give me forty taels more."

There was a rare expression on Chang Ce's paralyzed face, "My young master also said that it is as much as it should be. Mr. Lu originally took 400 yuan per catty. Miss Su must not give up so much just because my young master is by his side." ”

Su Ziling: "???"

WTF?

No, why are there still people rushing to send money?

Chang Ce directly pushed two hundred taels of silver into Su Ziling's hand, "Seven hundred kilograms of vermicelli is two hundred and eighty taels, and the remaining twenty taels can be used to buy this wine and preserved eggs."

Su Ziling: "???"

Twenty taels for a hundred preserved eggs and a jar of wine?

No, her wine was worth some money, but why did she feel that the money was a bit hot to her touch?

Shiba grinned, "Girl, just take it. If you don't take it, the wine and preserved eggs will fall into the eyes of others, and they will think you are bribing that guy. Besides," he lowered his voice, "Then The guy is not short of money.”

In the end, Su Ziling only accepted two hundred taels of silver. The price of the vermicelli was already fixed and always was two hundred cents. It was their business to decide how much they bought and sold, and she couldn't mess with it here.

One hundred and forty taels of vermicelli, and the jar of wine is no less than five kilograms. Although her wine cannot be sold at a sky-high price, sixty taels is still more than enough.

After loading the vermicelli, Chang Ce and the others didn't waste much time. They exchanged a few pleasantries with Su Ziling and left. Shiba was also on the road with them.

Seeing the carriage leave, Su Ziling and the others set off and headed back.

Without the burden, the group of people moved much faster than when they arrived.

When I got home, it was already the beginning of Xu Shi (19:00), it was completely dark, and the torch in my hand was half lit.

"Ayuan, come in and rest for a while, then go back after eating."

"Uncle, I just ate this afternoon and I'm not hungry yet."

"Uncle, please go into the house quickly. We won't go in to rest. The Chinese New Year will be in two days. Let's have a good time then." (Chong Kezi: Chat)

Several people stood at the door and refused to go in no matter how they shouted. Su Ziling gave them five cents each, but they naturally didn't accept it.

She muttered that Su Ziling treated them as outsiders, "Eldest niece, you don't treat us uncles as your own. When did helping to pick out things actually count?"

"I don't dare to accept this money. If you take it back, your third uncle won't be able to break my legs? You can't harm me! We are all family members. If we need help in the future, we won't dare to ask you. ”

Seeing that they really refused to accept it, Mr. Su asked her to put it away, "Forget it if your uncle and the others don't accept it. Give them the torch. It's getting dark so fast that you can't see anything clearly in the blink of an eye."

After saying that, he looked at a few people and said, "Then you go back slowly. I won't keep you here anymore. Remember to come over to my house for dinner tomorrow morning. You don't need the money, but you have to eat, right?"

Several people smiled and looked at each other, "Okay! Let's have dinner at uncle's house tomorrow morning."

Hearing a sound outside the door, but not hearing anyone entering the yard for a long time, Su's mother stood at the door of the kitchen and said, "Er Niu, go see if your father and the others are back."

Su A'nai added two firewood to the fire pit. The flames were suppressed and the already dark room became much darker.

"I guess it's time to come back. Check to see if the food is cool. If it's cold, heat it up."

"The steamer is still hot, but the dishes need to be reheated." Mother Su said as she took out two firewood burning in the fire pit and put them into the large stove.

At this time, Su Zimu's voice came from the yard, "Aniang, my sister and the others are back."

"You're back? When you're back, hurry into the house. It's getting dark today and it's very cold. Let's sit by the fire and grill. I'll heat up some food and eat."

Su Ziling was so cold that she stamped her feet. Auntie Su dragged out the stool and said, "Come here and have a barbecue. Is it cold? I forgot to ask you to wear thick clothes when we set off. It's very cold in the mountains."

"It's cold. I didn't feel it even when I was walking. When I stopped, my face was numb from the cold." Su Ziling stretched out her hand to warm herself by the fire, then covered her frozen face.

"Eat a sweet potato to fill your stomach. Are you hungry? You didn't eat it when your father and the others were eating." Su A'nai took out a small sweet potato that was roasted until soft and gave it to her.

"I wasn't hungry at that time, so I didn't eat it. Grandma, have you eaten yet?" Su Ziling took the sweet potato. Pisu's milk had already been peeled for her. She held it in one hand to gnaw and put it in the other hand. Roasting by the fire.

"No, I just wanted to wait for you to come back and eat together!"

Hearing the gong pot bubbling, Su Ziling rubbed her nose and said, "Grandma, what's cooking in this gong pot? It smells so good!"

"Didn't I buy meat today? Your mother cut some and stewed the bamboo shoots. Didn't I listen to you and tell me to wait for Erniu to come back to eat the rest? I hung it in the well for you."

Su Ziling's eyes lit up when she thought that the pickle paste she had boiled could finally be eaten.

"It's just right. I'll prepare the dishes early tomorrow. Let's have a barbecue tomorrow. Then we'll bake it again when my third aunt and the others come back."

"Er Niu, pull the table and get ready to eat." Mother Su shouted while shoveling vegetables.
