daily struggle in ancient times

As the end of the new year approached, the shops of all sizes in the city were very lively. The two of them walked around for a long time and bought most of the things they wanted to buy before going to eat with their hungry stomachs.

Wei Yun had been doing business in the city for a long time, and it was clear which restaurant in the city did the best food. He didn't look at the others, so he took Huo Chengyi straight to a noodle stall by the side of the road, and ordered two bowls of stewed rice. meat noodles.

The two who supported the stall were a husband and wife who had done business with Wei Yun a few times. Seeing him bring a man over, he smiled and congratulated and said, "Brother Yun is married? That's a good relationship. If someone lives together, I'm sure you'll be happy." It’s much easier, my aunt wishes you to have a son soon and grow old together!”

Wei Yun quickly thanked him.

When the noodle bowl came up, the thick stewed meat on it could be seen to be taken care of by the shopkeeper. I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and someone who was eating noodles at the side shouted: "Shopkeeper! Your business is too partial , this little brother and his boss have too much stewed meat in their bowls!"

The aunt just glanced over and said loudly: "If you just got married like this little brother, I will get you more!"

The person at the same table with him quickly answered: "He has a tigress in his family, how dare he divorce his wife and marry another, I'm afraid his head will be broken as soon as he opens his mouth."

Everyone at the noodle stall immediately burst into laughter, and the person who was laughed didn't care, and said with a smile: "It turns out that there is a happy event, brother, I also wish you an early birth and a long and long life!"

It was like a head start, everyone at the noodle stall said auspicious words one after another, Wei Yun bowed his head the whole time in embarrassment, and almost buried his face in the bowl.

But these people are all kind, although they are shy, they are warm and happy in their hearts.

The couple ate a bowl of noodles, added some other things, brought some things for the family, and drove back to the village.

Brother Wei didn't see the two of them when he got up early in the morning. When he saw someone coming back with a cart full of things, he quickly greeted him: "Brother! Brother husband!"

Huo Cheng picked him up, and took out a greased paper bag from the pile of things in his arms: "Eat it!"

"Wow! Meat buns!" Wei Xiaodi's eyes lit up. The smell is from the Huang's bun shop in the city. Their meat buns are cheap and delicious, and they are Wei's favorite.

The meat buns were still hot, so Brother Wei hurried down and divided two between Brother Tong and Aunt Huo, and he only took one to chew.

Aunt Huo felt a little distressed. The meat buns cost three Wen each. How nice it is to make them at home.But she also knew that her son was filial to herself, so she didn't say anything after deliberating for a long time.

I bought a lot of things, including everything to eat and use. I didn't buy clothes, but I bought more than ten catties of cotton.There is still a lot of cloth at home when we get married, enough to make a new suit for everyone.Although there is no shortage of clothes for everyone this year, it is always a happy thing to have new clothes for the New Year, and it is also a good sign.

After tidying up everything, the couple freed their hands to look at the box given by the Han family.

The box is not big, but it is very exquisitely made. Two 20 taels of silver ingots are stuffed inside, and there are some small objects for children to play with, filling the small space to the brim.

Wei Yun thought for a while, and discussed with Huo Cheng: "I want to give the bulk of this thing to the brothers of the Hu family. If it weren't for them, the young master would not be able to find our house. Moreover, the money they sent these days is more than that." It was a lot before, I guess I took out a lot of my share, and it can be regarded as giving them back."

Huo Cheng naturally had no objection, "You can do it as you see fit."

He took a few small items from the box, thought about it, and exchanged two 20 taels of silver ingots for a 30 taels of silver bill.Cash is not easy to hide, but banknotes can be sewn directly into old clothes, which is easier to hide.

Afraid that he would not accept the two children when he went to Hu's house, Wei Yun turned his mind on Huo Cheng.The children in the village are all afraid of Huo Cheng, no matter how naughty a child is in front of Huo Cheng, they will not dare to show their pride, no matter how sensible the Hu brothers are, they are still two children.

Wei Yun pushed the things into Huo Cheng's arms, "Go and deliver them, I've been walking for a day, and I'm a little tired."

Huo Cheng glanced at him with a half-smile, but didn't refuse, took the things and went out.

Wei Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and went out to distribute the gadgets to the two children.

Han Pingji also sent some before, Wei Xiaodi was not so surprised, but Brother Tong, although he was greedy, he didn't reach out to touch it.Brother Wei also gave Brother Tong his own to play with before, and Wei Yun also said to share some of Brother Wei's things with him, but Brother Tong didn't want it, so Wei Yun didn't insist.

"This time it was given by someone else. You two are one and two. Neither is too much and the other is not too little. It's all right." Wei Yun said with a smile.

Aunt Huo on the side also smiled and said to Tong Geer: "Your uncle gave it to you, you can take it." Just as Wei Yun treats Tong Geer equally, Aunt Huo feels that Yang Wei's younger brother is not worth it at all. Not bad.

Brother Tong happily took the things away, and thanked him with a grin: "Thank you uncle!"

Wei Yun patted his head with a loving face, "What do you two want to eat for Chinese New Year this year?"

Brother Wei answered immediately: "Meat!"

Wei Yun was angry and funny, and pinched his little nose, "I want meat after eating meat! Besides meat? Is there anything else you want to eat?"

Brother Wei and Brother Tong looked at each other, smiled silly and said, "I want to eat croquettes, sweet potato and rapeseed, fruit and stir-fried dumplings! Brother, you like sticky bean buns, so make some more of this."

"You have everything you want to eat!" Wei Yun said, then turned around and asked again: "Where is Brother Tong and mother? What do you want to eat? You earned a lot this year. I went to Han's house today, and Han's family gave me a thank you gift." , we have money this year, so we will cook more delicious food during the Chinese New Year. This is only once a year, and it doesn’t cost much.”

Aunt Huo swallowed what she was going to say when she heard the words, Brother Tong looked at him and whispered, "Fry some salty food, grandma likes it."

Wei Yun responded immediately: "Okay, our Brother Tong is really filial!"

Brother Tong was a little embarrassed by the praise, and he smiled cutely. He ate well these days and he was in a good mood. .

After a few people talked for a while, Huo Chengcheng came back with a paper bag.

"Have the things been delivered?" Wei Yun asked, "Why did you bring something back?"

Huo Cheng nodded, "They took the things. These are dried mushrooms, which were originally saved in summer to supplement rations in winter. Now that they have the money, they don't need it anymore, so they took some for me."

Wei Yun breathed a sigh of relief, "That's it, I thought the two children were confiscated."

Huo Cheng glanced at him sideways, and said coolly: "If you let me go, don't you mean that they are sure that they dare not refuse? Why are you worried again now?"

Wei Yun just pretended that he didn't understand, and turned around to tease the two children again.

Several people had extra meals in the afternoon, and they were not too hungry in the evening. Wei Yun didn't cook at all, but baked sweet potatoes and steamed buns, and ate a little casually.

Maybe it was because of what happened in the afternoon. In the evening, Huo Cheng gave Wei Yun a lot of trouble. He was so tired that he let the other party clean up for him, and he didn't want to move at all.

When he was hugged in his arms after cleaning up, Wei Yun was already in a daze and was about to fall asleep.But after all, he still had something in mind, so he braced himself and said, "Today, I was discussing with my mother what to do for the New Year. Do you have anything to eat? I'll make it for you during the New Year."

Huo Cheng stroked his tight back, absent-mindedly: "Anything is fine, I won't pick."

Wei Yun yawned, "That's fine, then you can eat with everyone."

He leaned himself into Huo Cheng's arms, and continued: "I suddenly remembered today, if Tong Ge'er wants to talk about kissing, the boss of the Hu family is the right one. He is about the same age as Tong Ge'er. Although he is a little poor, he is practical and capable. And willing to endure hardships, one day I will be able to survive.”

"There are only two brothers in the Hu family, and there is no elder. Brother Tong doesn't need to serve the elderly when he gets married, and he can be the master of his own house. With our help at that time, life will definitely be better, but it's a little bit to say now. It's too early, we have to look again..."

The more he spoke, the lower his voice became, and in the end it completely turned into an even breathing sound.

Huo Cheng didn't understand how the topic became like this, but this didn't prevent him from frowning.

When Wei Yuntou started talking to him about this matter today, he actually didn't have any thoughts in his mind, but now when it comes to a specific person, he feels uncomfortable and protests.

He thought about the situation when he went to Hu's house today. At that time, he still felt that the boss of Hu's family was a man who knew how to advance and retreat and knew how to be grateful. Looking at it now, it is clear that he is tactful and sophisticated.

Brother Tong has such a solid personality, what should he do when he meets such a cunning person!

It doesn't work, you have to think about it again.

Early the next morning, Wei Yun heard this man telling him with a serious face that the boss of the Hu family was no good, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

"You man, I just mentioned it in passing yesterday, Brother Tong is still young, and there are still several years to consider!"

"The boss of the Hu family is not good either, he is not a good match." Huo Cheng insisted.

Wei Yun glanced at him with a smile, and teased: "When we got married, people in the village also said that you were not a good match, but you see, what they said was also wrong? Didn't you think that the brothers of the Hu family had a good character? He is tough and repays his kindness, he is a good person worth entrusting, why do you look down on him so much now?"

"That's different." Huo Cheng frowned into a plain word, "Making friends and getting married are two completely different things, and the places to look at are also different..."

Wei Yun couldn't listen anymore, and said angrily: "You are full of food and worry about it, so it will be difficult for you to think so much now. I understand it. If I give birth to a little brother in the future Son, don’t you have to worry about someone snatching your child away every day? Are you tired?!”

The little brothers in the Great Zhou Dynasty could only give birth to men and brothers, so Wei Yun didn't talk about daughters.He never expected that Huo Cheng, who is usually fierce and reliable, would be such an extreme son-in-law.

Huo Cheng looked at the back of him going out, and said silently in his heart with true feelings: I'm not tired.

But what Wei Yun said was also true. Huo Chengcheng felt uncomfortable when he thought that his beloved little brother was going to be married off by others.

But my little brother always wants to marry. The saying that gossip can kill people is never alarmist, but how can I guarantee that my little brother will marry a reliable one?

After thinking about it, Huo Cheng felt that it was still necessary to start with a baby. Tong Geer was already too late, but at least it would take five or six years to get married, so there was still time.

Thinking about it this way, the boss of the Hu family is not so annoying anymore.
