Chapter 203 Li Laishu Enters Linjia Village
Li Laishu and Zhao Da rode their horses at full speed on the winding mountain road. After half an hour, Li Laishu arrived at the fence at the entrance of Linjia Village on horseback first.
Zhao Da was driving the carriage and was always some distance behind Li Laishu, and was still running wildly on the road.
Seeing that not only was the gate at the entrance of Linjia Village wide open, but there was no villager patrolling, Li Laishu always felt that something was strange, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
After Zhao Da caught up, Li Laishu stopped worrying about it and continued riding into the village, with Zhao Da following closely in his carriage.
After the two dragon guards arrived at Linjia Village, Patriarch Lin felt extremely safe. He not only ordered the people from Linjia Village and Lijia Village to stop patrolling, but also ordered Master Lin Si, who was in charge of guarding the fence gate at the entrance of the village, not to close the gate during the day.
Li Laishu thought that there was no one patrolling the village entrance, but he didn't know that Dian Twelve was on a big tree at the entrance of the village, paying close attention to the movements around Linjia Village. When he saw that it was two yamen runners entering the village, he ignored them.
……
The simple houses in Lijia Village were built around the drying yard opposite the clan school. A large courtyard was left in the middle of the village, and the entrance of the village was facing the gate of the clan school.
After asking the people of Linjia Village about the situation of Lijia Village near the clan school, Li Laishu rode his horse to the entrance of Lijia Village...
Zhao Da followed closely behind in his carriage.
……
Li Laishu's family built three main rooms, two side rooms and several bamboo beds. Most of the pots, pans, tables, chairs, benches, bedding and clothes in the house were given by the Lin family.
The three main rooms face north and south, with the living room in the middle and bedrooms on the east and west sides. Each room is more than ten square meters in size.
There are two side rooms behind the main house, one for kitchen and one for toilet.
The kitchen is about ten square meters and is connected to the main room.
The toilet is more than ten meters away from the main house.
……
"Mom, I have something else to do at home. I'm going back now."
After chatting with Zhang for a while at her mother's house, Li Xianglan stood up to say goodbye, and walked out of the main hall while talking...
"Okay, Lan'er, come and sit with me when you're free."
Seeing Li Xianglan getting up to say goodbye, Zhang did not try to keep her and quickly got up to see Li Xianglan out.
……
As soon as she walked out of the main hall, Li Xianglan saw Li Laishu and Zhao Da entering Lijia Village. She said in surprise, "Mom, look, my brother and the people from the county government are here. They must be here to inform us to collect the relief grain!"
Zhao Da was dressed in the uniform of a yamen runner. Even though Li Xianglan and Zhang didn't know him, they knew he was from the county government.
"Lan Er is right!"
Li Xianglan said she would do it, but Zhang still didn't quite believe that there was such a good thing as receiving relief food. Now that she saw her son and Zhao Da coming, she instantly felt that this was true and said happily.
……
After entering the village, when Li Laishu was wondering where his simple house was, he suddenly saw Zhang and Li Xianglan walk out of the house, and then drove his horse towards the mother and daughter...
"Mother, sister, how did you know I was coming?"
When he was riding his horse about ten meters away from the main hall, Li Laishu tightened the reins, dismounted, and shouted.
"Your sister came to her parents' home for something, and was about to go back when she saw you enter the village."
Hearing Li Laishu shouting, Zhang responded.
……
"Brother, is the county government going to distribute relief food?"
Seeing Li Laishu tied the horse to a tree next to the house, Li Xianglan couldn't wait to ask.
"Who told you that, sister?"
Li Laishu was surprised.
“My third sister-in-law said so this morning.
When I told my uncle and mother just now, my uncle believed it, but my mother didn’t quite believe it.”
"Shu'er, is this true?"
As soon as Li Xianglan finished speaking, Zhang asked hurriedly.
"Mother, elder sister, this is true. Third sister-in-law is not talking nonsense. Zhao Da and I are here for this matter."
When Li Laishu heard that it was Tang Qiuhe who revealed the news, he understood. It seemed that the food and water that appeared in the county government office were really related to the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce, otherwise how could his third sister-in-law know about this.
"That's great! I don't have to worry about my family now."
Li Xianglan said happily.
"I never thought this would be true. I never dared to dream of such a good thing!"
Zhang said excitedly.
……
The three of them ignored Zhao Da as they talked, and Zhao Da quietly parked the carriage in front of the main room.
"Shu'er, how many kilograms of relief food can one person receive?"
After calming down, Zhang asked.
"Mom, let's talk about this later. This is Zhao Da."
Li Laishu was anxious to check the situation at home, and reminded as he walked into the main room.
"It's all my fault that mom was so happy that she forgot to greet everyone. Don't be offended, Zhao Da. Come in and sit down!"
"Lan'er, make two cups of chrysanthemum tea."
"Okay, mother."
"You're welcome, Aunt Li."
As they were talking, several people walked into the main room.
……
After seeing Zhang arranged Zhao Da to sit down at a round table in the main hall, Li Xianglan handed him a cup of wild chrysanthemum tea.
"Thank you, Sister Li!"
Zhao Da was thirsty, so he didn't care whether the tea was hot or not. He just said thank you, picked up the cup and started drinking.
"You're welcome!"
-
"Mom, the makeshift house is well built and the furniture is also easy to use. It's really great!"
After looking at a few rooms, Li Laishu felt relieved and returned to the main room to praise sincerely.
"Shu'er, your eldest sister's in-laws not only sent a lot of useful things to our family, but also invited our women to live in the Lin family and our men to live in You'ran. We owe the Lin family a big favor."
"Brother, come and have some tea."
Li Xianglan brought a cup of wild chrysanthemum tea to the round table and greeted them.
"Thank you, sis!"
Li Laishu had been busy all morning and was now hungry and thirsty. He did not bother to talk to Zhang anymore. After thanking her, he went to the round table, picked up the teacup and started drinking.
"Be careful of the burns!"
Seeing Li Laishu pick up the teacup and drink, Li Xianglan couldn't help but remind him.
……
"Mom, I've been busy all morning and I'm hungry and thirsty now. Is there anything to eat at home?"
After taking a few sips of tea, Li Laishu asked.
"There's nothing to eat at home. Your eldest brother and his friends drank some wild vegetable porridge this morning and went out. So mother had no choice but to cook some wild vegetable porridge for you..."
As Zhang spoke, she walked towards the kitchen door...
"Mom, don't worry. The several hundred kilograms of food that my son bought is still on the carriage. It won't be too late to cook it after he unloads the food."
Hearing Zhang's words, Li Laishu felt lucky that he had bought so much food. After saying this, he put down his teacup and walked towards the door of the main hall...
Zhao Da hurriedly got up and followed.
Zhang and Li Xianglan were overjoyed when they heard this and hurried to follow.
……
Li Laishu bought twenty-three bags of millet, each bag weighing twenty kilograms, which Zhang and Li Xianglan could carry.
After several people carried twenty-three bags of grain into the dormitory and stacked them, Zhang hurriedly untied the rope to look at the grain in the pockets.
When Zhang saw that his pocket was filled with yellow millet, she was surprised and happy, and suddenly felt that it was not safe at all to keep the food in the makeshift house.
Millet is a good thing. A handful of millet can save a life in a famine year, not to mention that there is so much millet at home.
"Brother, did you buy these millets at the Tang Family Escort Agency? Is the refined rice sold at the Tang Family Escort Agency only five cents per pound?"
Seeing the food in her pocket, Li Xianglan suddenly remembered what Tang Qiuhe had said to her and asked hurriedly.
"Did Big Sister hear from Third Sister-in-law about the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce?"
Seeing Li Xianglan nod, Li Laishu continued: "Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce not only sells a large amount of cheap food in Tangjia Escort Agency, but also sells a large amount of cheap water, and even provides water for free later.
Two days before the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce opened, coarse grains were sold for 10 wen per pound, and refined rice and flour were sold for 15 wen per pound.
Later, the Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce slashed prices, selling miscellaneous grains for three cents per pound, and refined rice and flour for five cents per pound.
I went there quite early and bought millet at Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce for 10 wen per pound.
Even so, I don’t regret it. Wanyuan Chamber of Commerce suddenly closed down last night. From now on, even if I want to buy millet at 10 cents per pound, there will be nowhere to buy it…”
"Zhang, is the second son back?"
When Li Laishu heard the voice of Village Chief Li outside the house, he stopped talking abruptly.
"The village chief is here, let's go to the main hall and talk."
After greeting everyone, Zhang hurried to the door of the dormitory...
Li Laishu, Zhao Da and Li Xianglan hurried to catch up.
