Dressed as the head of the lazy village
Chapter 26 Let's go, Chapter 1 Go to your house. ([-])
Wang Dawei picked up the ball of paper and stuffed it into his arms, frowned and said to the little fool, "Why did you come here?"
The three people in the shop also looked at Wang Dawei, and the tall and thin man asked, "Are you here to find this little husband? Are you the new village head of Lazy, Tiangan'er Village?"
Wang Dawei nodded, walked behind the little fool unobtrusively, and acted as his strong backing: "Exactly."
The attitude of the tall and thin man towards Wang Dawei and the little fool was completely different, it would not be an exaggeration to say that one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.They had read the letter written by the little fool, knew some of the information, and even guessed, at this moment they said to Wang Dawei earnestly: "You are too big, the husband who bought it not long ago dared to let him go Street? The money at home was stolen! If it wasn’t for the brothers who stopped you for you, you would be in big trouble!”
Wang Dawei froze for a moment when he heard "Yinzi", and glanced at the little fool without any trace, and the other party lowered his head guiltily.Before, he argued that he was not a thief and did not steal anything, but now he was caught by the owner. He was a little embarrassed and a little scared.
Wang Dawei...will be very angry.
The old man with old cheekbones stroked his beard and said, "You youngsters, you will be so beautiful after a few breaths of pillow wind. Did he say that he likes you and is willing to live a stable life with you and will never leave? You got dizzy and took him out? This is all a routine, a lie to you, we have seen it too much!"
Obviously nothing happened, but because of his professional habits, Wang Dawei suddenly had a sense of the picture: the little fool shared the bed with him, lying in his ear and saying that he was happy with him... It doesn't even matter where the camera is shot, how the action moves Think it over!
...No no no!I'm a serious actor! How could I shoot something that can't be aired! Σ(っ°Д°;) っ! ! !
Wang Dawei couldn't help but blush with embarrassment at his own brain.In the eyes of everyone in the shop, it seems that the old man has hit the mark.The tall and thin man sighed, and patted Wang Dawei on the shoulder: "Brother, be careful when you go back, take care of the money at home, don't waste your personal money...Your husband is actually literate, these people who have read Ah, there are so many squishy intestines! If I want to see it, I will lock him up in a room and tie him up with a rope. After a year or so, he will not be able to run away when he is pregnant with a child!"
The old man also agreed: "Don't feel bad, the daughter-in-law bought by someone in ten miles and eight towns is dishonest. They all do this. There are also those who are afraid that someone will run away and break their legs."
They saw the little fool writing just now, and found that the handwriting was very neat: there is no nine-year compulsory education these days, and there are not many people who can read.Like the three people in the delivery shop, except for the old man with high cheekbones who is a child who has studied for two years and can write letters for others, the other two only know some common characters and cannot write. out of control.
The handwriting written by this little husband is even more neat and beautiful than that of the old man, it cannot be mastered overnight.Even if ordinary farmers have money to send their children to study, they will definitely not send a little brother there.Brothers who can read these days, either they are very rich and have status in their families, so they hired someone to teach them specially;
No matter which one is found, it will be a big trouble.
Their Miaozhu Prefecture and its surrounding Yazhou and Shizhou are located by the sea, and they are often hit by disasters, and the people are poor.Therefore, the labor force is very important to a family, and patriarchy has become the norm.Some families often drown their daughters or younger brothers on the spot after giving birth, resulting in an imbalance of male to female ratio, and the boys cannot find wives when they grow up.
Therefore, it has become a common practice to buy wives from outside. For example, in Miaozhuzhou, two out of every five people have bought wives.Due to the high demand, formal human trafficking cannot satisfy the local market, and looting and selling have gradually become common practice.
At least half of these foreign wives were plundered and sold.The government is also very clear that although plundering and selling is illegal, the law does not blame the public, and they will turn a blind eye to pretend they don't know, and even help cover it up.
After cutting off the way of plundering and selling, do they want them to watch that the people under the rule can't get a daughter-in-law and the birth rate drops?Who will plant the fields, and how will they collect taxes?This is a famously impoverished place, and even taxes cannot be collected. Do we need political achievements?
And the people, of course, don't want the daughter-in-law they bought at a big price to run away.Therefore, the government and the people were unexpectedly united on this matter: everyone helped each other, and the women and brothers who were looted and sold were not allowed to run away!
If this little husband's father is really a man of fame or power, if he makes a fuss about looting and selling, it will affect all places in the world!
Which family has no relatives and friends, and the daughter-in-law of the neighbors is sold by looting?
For example, these people in the shop, the eldest daughter-in-law of the old man with high cheekbones, the daughter-in-law of the brother-in-law of the tall and thin man, and the daughter-in-law of the taciturn man who has never spoken are all stolen and sold.
They said to Wang Dawei: "They all come here like this, they accept their fate after giving birth to a child."
After hearing what they said, the little fool felt a chill run up his spine.
This place... turned out to be such a hell on earth!It's not scary to meet a wave of bad people, but it's scary that no one around is good... He even foolishly ran to the county government office to ask the county magistrate for help, thinking that the government would send him home.
He's so stupid...it turns out he was wrong in the first place.
Wang Dawei was also silent for a moment, and cupped his hands towards the shoppers: "Thank you for the reminders, brothers and uncles, I will definitely watch him closely in the future, and there will be no mistakes like this again."
After finishing speaking, he grabbed the little fool's slender arm and dragged it out of the door, as if he was wearing a cuckold, and said viciously: "You bastard, dare to lie to your grandpa, let me see how I deal with you when I go back! Just break your leg and forget it!" !"
The little fool was frightened by his sudden change of face, and his eyes widened in horror.
But everyone in the delivery shop showed satisfied smiles, continued to eat tea and sunflower seeds, and watched Wang Dawei drag them out.
"Children can be taught." The old man with high cheekbones was very pleased.
After leaving the shop door, Wang Dawei restrained his aura, but he was still holding onto the little fool's arm tightly.
Wu Gaoshu was still standing under the tree in front of the yamen, guarding his donkey cart, frowning.Seeing Wang Dawei dragging someone back, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't get lost."
When they came out of the yamen after completing the land deed, they saw that the donkey cart was empty, and the little fool had disappeared.
Wang Dawei's complexion was not good at that time.Wu Gaoshu was also a little anxious, he came out to check the title deed, if Wang Dawei's foolish husband got lost, even if it wasn't his responsibility, he would inevitably feel a little guilty.
Fortunately, Wang Dawei made a trip and found him.At this time, seeing that the little fool had two bags of tears in his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were red as if he had suffered a great grievance, Wu Gaoshu casually asked, "Where did he go to play? Was he bullied?"
"Runned to the delivery shop next door, bumped into the official inside, and was reprimanded a few times." Wang Dawei said.
Only then did Wu Gaoshu realize that Wang Dawei's complexion was not very good-looking.Wang Dawei's face had already been dark for a long time because of the disappearance of the little fool, but now it has turned livid.
Maybe he was implicated and reprimanded by the official... Wu Gaoshu thought about it, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't take it to heart, some officials smell bad... Hey, don't mention it."
But these words reached Wang Dawei's heart.
That's right!Those stinking officials! ! !
Who are they?Even if things like plundering and selling gradually become a common practice, it's fine if the people don't raise officials and don't investigate.After all, it was an ancient feudal society, and the requirements should not be too high.
But now someone ran out to ask for help, and they were blocked!
Although the people in the delivery shop all showed a good attitude for Wang Dawei, Wang Dawei didn't appreciate it at all!
In modern times, Wang Dawei, as an influential public figure, always forwarded Weibo of lost children every time he saw them; The abducted children who came out had to stay in the local orphanage because they couldn't remember their home address. He originally thought about paying out of his own pocket to subsidize the money to send the abducted brother Cheng back, but Cheng didn't want to.
A party member like him who has devoted his life to public welfare will not join forces with these criminals! ! !
Wang Dawei didn't want to talk more about this with Wu Gaoshu, after all, they were still at the gate of the yamen.He said: "Brother Wu, I'll take him to the medical clinic first, and meet at the gate of the city at sunset."
"That's right, that's the serious business." Seeing Wang Dawei's expression soften, Wu Gaoshu heaved a sigh of relief.He discovered it last time, and this kid's serious face is really scary... "I'm selling sugarcane on the street in front of me. You can ask the guy to deliver you when you buy something. I'll go to the gate of the city at sunset."
The two agreed and parted ways.Without saying a word, Wang Dawei dragged the little fool to the direction of Shuimayi.
"Let go of me...it hurts so much from you grabbing me..." The little fool struggled until Wu Gaoshu was no longer visible after walking away.The angry Wang Dawei is so scary, even scarier than when he turned into a pervert and a lewd demon.The little animal's intuition made the little fool want to stay away from him.
The water horse station is not too far from the delivery shop, two streets away, and there is a post house for entertaining officials in the middle, three points and one line.
Shuimayi is adjacent to the main road and official road, and there are many stalls selling food nearby, which is quite lively.Wang Dawei stopped, didn't go that way, but dragged the little fool to find a secluded and deserted place, and then let him go.
The little fool clutched his wrist and took several steps back, relying on a tree to cover half of his body, he felt a little safer.
He stole Wang Dawei's money, Wang Dawei must be very angry, his wrist has purple marks!So fierce and terrible!
He had long discovered that Wang Dawei seemed to hate thieves. Before the county magistrate framed him for theft, he was interrogated several times by Wang Dawei.Now that he really committed the crime in his hands, will he be beaten? QQ
Wang Dawei almost laughed angrily at him.If there is one good person in this world who is willing to let you go home, then that is my party member, okay? !
But looking at those rabbit eyes with tears in their eyes and red corners, Wang Dawei still couldn't bear to curse out.
He felt around his waist and took out ten taels of silver from his belt.
In this world, an acre of good fertile land can be sold for six or seven taels of silver. The fields in Tiangan'er Village were originally fertile fields, but they were ruined because of the laziness of the villagers.Dian has been raised by Wujiazhuang for a few years, but it is not very good.In addition, Wu Gaoshu was the village head of Wujiazhuang, so he sold it to him for five taels of silver per mu.
Four acres of paddy fields total 20 taels.It costs about five or six taels of silver to pay food taxes, and the rest of the money has to be arranged for group weddings, and it is inevitable that there will be emergencies in helping new refugees settle down.
"That's all I can take out now, and I don't want the money you took from my room last night. You can go and go back to your house." Wang Dawei pointed to the water horse station not far away.
The little fool was completely stupid this time. "you……"
Isn't he dreaming? ?Wang Dawei is so generous, don't hold him accountable for stealing money, let him go and give him back the money? ?
Wang Dawei endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back, and complained: "Why don't you discuss it with me? If you have a way to go home, you can tell me. If we send letters together, those guards will not be suspicious... ..."
The guard was obviously just in case the bought daughter-in-law would run away, but he was very friendly and trusting to the locals, and he would not believe that the locals would be stupid enough to let the bought daughter-in-law go.
As long as they pretend to be ordinary couples and send letters to their relatives, they will not end up like this now!
But it's too late to say that now.If Wang Dawei were to send the letter at this moment, those guards must be vigilant, knowing that there was a "traitor" among the locals.
Seeing the little fool's fear of him, Wang Dawei sighed and said no more.He put the silver on the ground in front of the little fool, turned around and left.
It's like feeding a vigilant animal...Wang Dawei thought as he walked, he wouldn't dare to eat if he stood nearby, and he wouldn't dare to eat until he walked away.
Vigilant, suspicious, and... not very well-fed.Wang Dawei felt a little sad.
He thought he was really good to this little fool, little liar, and little villain... When he ran into him for "stealing" and was chased, he didn't report it on the spot, and found that he pretended to be stupid and didn't expose him on the spot. And pay him to send him away...
Although he would spend a lot of money for charity in modern times, but because he was born in an orphanage and was afraid of poverty, Wang Dawei has never felt very secure about money.
To put it simply, he will only spend half of his entire property: if he has 100 yuan, he will save 50 yuan and spend the other 50 yuan.
If there is 5000 million yuan, 5000 million yuan will be saved, and the other [-] million yuan will be invested for public welfare.
I'm afraid that when the investment fails and the loss is too large, it will be beaten back to its original shape and penniless.
But now, he took out assets that far exceeded his own, and even overdrawn the public property that was originally intended to be used as village fees to the little fool.
At this time, Wang Dawei had to admit that he was indeed obsessed with sex.
It's amazing to look good.Wang Dawei thought angrily, and cursed himself for being worthless.
It's not like I haven't seen such a good-looking person in modern times, and I haven't seen myself being tempted.Are there any beauties in the entertainment circle who are fat and thin?As a popular front-line man, how many people want to hug his thighs, and how many fans just want to sleep with Wang Dawei.
She herself looks good too, okay?
But now he is lame, so he likes that little liar.
Wang Dawei recalled the first time he saw the little liar, those red and pitiful eyes exposed in the pile of wood.
Maybe...it was through those eyes that I saw myself helpless in the orphanage, and thousands of friends who were equally helpless, that's why I...
A young man who doesn't know love and hate, is the most excited in his life...? ? ? ?What a mess!Wang Dawei got rid of the weird thoughts in his head, and decided to use shopping to resolve the sadness of broken love (?.
He had drawn up a recipe for the group wedding last night—it was a recipe, but it was just cooking a few big pots of vegetables, and each person scooped up a bowl or two, without setting the table.
Braised pork with potatoes in brown sauce, stewed cabbage and blood sausage with big bones, fried wild vegetables with lard, and a pot of seaweed and egg drop soup, which is considered a good meal in the village.
After all, their village is a village that eats porridge almost all year round.
The potatoes, cabbage and eggs in these dishes can be purchased from people in Wujiazhuang and other surrounding villages, and the price can be cheaper.The wild vegetables are picked directly from the mountains, and the pork and lard are much needed, and they can also be ordered directly from the pig farmers in the nearby villages.Only condiments such as seaweed, salt and soy sauce have to be bought in the city.
Before reaching the grocery store, Wang Dawei saw a bookstore first, and walked in after turning around.
He was going to buy some pens and paper to record the village's public accounts, such as the income from selling Zhao Shitou's land, such as the expenses of the collective wedding. In the future, the village will also record the income.
Regardless of whether the villagers can understand it or not, making an account book will show that he is magnanimous, so as to avoid those who suspect that he is greedy for the money from selling the land and let him spit it out multiple times.
Although he wasn't the soft persimmon that the original owner was easy to pinch, he didn't like trouble either.It's best to shut the mouths of the villagers so clearly.
In addition, he himself has some things to remember in his daily life.For example, the menu of a collective wedding, a list of things to buy.
Now he uses a small wooden stick to scratch and write on the leaves. It will be fine for a day or two, but the leaves will rot after a long time.It is really inconvenient to not have a pen and paper. Even the document for his succession as the village chief was written in Wu Gaoshu's pen and paper with the cheek of Wu Gaoshu in Wujiazhuang...
Wang Chengliang also left a copy of the village's household registration book, but he has no pen and ink, and cannot register the household registration of the refugees.
The bookstore clerk looked at his clothes, but he didn't neglect him because of his simple clothes. Hearing that Wang Dawei wanted to buy some paper and pens, he thoughtfully led him to the area where cheap pens, inks, papers and inkstones were placed.These days, there are not a few poor farmers who rely on reading to get ahead. Who knows which piece of cloud has rain, and they will get ahead.
If you don't keep the one in front of you, you can become Tian Shelang in the court and ascend to the Tianzitang in the evening.
However, this guy is also very clever and has a wink. Although he led Wang Dawei to the cheap area, he said: "Our store is the largest bookstore in Qiongshui County, and we sell more books, paper and pens than other places. Even the prince There is also Xuelang paper used in the government! But you scholars are very good at practicing calligraphy, so it is not too late for me to use it in high school. The raw edge paper and Yuanshu paper produced in Miaozhu Prefecture are also very good. of."
Scholars have a good face, so he can cover up the shame caused by poverty for them.
Raw edge paper and yuanshu paper are both made of bamboo, and the quality is inferior to rice paper.In addition, it is produced locally in Miaozhu Prefecture, which saves transportation costs, and the buddy really thinks it is a good deal.
Wang Dawei followed his introduction, and saw that the guy was referring to some yellow paper.
Wang Dawei: ...
Isn't this the true color of bamboo pulp that has become popular in modern times for advocating environmental protection... toilet paper?A lot of drawing papers have also begun to do this.
Oh, it's a little worse than the quality of paper.After Wang Dawei touched it, he commented numbly in his heart.
The raw edge paper is not much different from modern bamboo pulp paper, one side is smooth and the other is rough. Wang Dawei once experienced it, and the comfort is not as good as ordinary toilet paper. Of course, the raw edge paper is slightly thicker than toilet paper and toilet paper, and the paper quality is a bit brittle. Like the homework paper I used when I was a child...
If it is used to write brush characters, the rough side is easy to smudge, while the smooth side does not support ink, and it needs to dry smoothly after writing.
If you pick up the writing vertically after writing, you may be able to shed ink.
Yuanshu paper is even rougher, a low-profile version of raw-edged paper.
But even these papers, which are inferior to modern toilet paper, are not cheap.Raw edge paper costs a hundred pennies a knife, and yuan book paper costs seventy pennies.There are seventy sheets for one knife, and the width is four feet, which is quite a lot.
Fortunately, he is not a real scholar, and it doesn't take a lot of paper to do some simple village registration.In the end, Wang Dawei bought half a knife of raw-edged paper, a duck feather pen, and half a piece of low-quality residual ink, which cost a total of 130 Wen.
He stopped buying the inkstone, and he planned to go to the mountain to find a stone to replace it.
It was the first time for Wang Dawei to know that duck feathers can also be used to make pens. It is made of duck breast hair. The tip of the pen is very soft and not easy to write.
After leaving the bookstore, Wang Dawei went to the grocery store again, and bought two catties of salt, one catty of soy sauce, and two taels of seaweed, which cost three hundred Wen, of which soy sauce was the bulk.
Miaozhu Prefecture is near the sea. Although Qiongshui County is inland, seafood such as seaweed and dried shrimp are quite cheap.Two taels of dried seaweed can be soaked into a large pot, and a dozen eggs are added to it. If it is not enough, just add water to it.
Wang Dawei looked at the things in his hand, and asked the boss, "Is there any sugar?"
Braised pork still needs to be fried with sugar to taste better, and stir-fried wild vegetables can also be added with a little sugar to enhance the freshness.
"Yes, I have the most complete stock here, even honey." Wang Dawei bought several hundred dollars, and the shopkeeper was very happy, so he brought the jar over on the spot.
Wang Dawei saw that there were two kinds of sugar: one was amber-colored viscous syrup like honey, which was the raw material for sugar-blowers and sugar paintings he had seen when he was a child; Sesame candies, but without sesame seeds.
Both are maltose, which was called caramel in ancient times.It just doesn't have the white sugar that is common in modern times.
Wang Dawei fell into deep thought.There are many people growing sugar cane in Miaozhu Prefecture, but there is no sucrose... Then he remembered that sucrose was very rare in ancient China, and it was impossible to purify the pure white sugar of modern color, but mainly brown sugar and brown sugar, and Do more medicine.Ordinary people use maltose instead of sugar.
This is due to the fact that he acted in a TV series "Sugar Dynasty" about the development of China's sugar production not long ago. However, the background of the time was in the Republic of China, and Wang Dawei didn't study the further knowledge too carefully, just glanced at it briefly.
Today, even maltose, known as Yi, was a light luxury product in ancient times, more expensive than salt, costing seventy Wen per catty.It's not like salt is a must. Ordinary people don't buy sugar when they have nothing to do.
Curious, Wang Dawei bought a little of each item and spent another fifty Wen.
The shopkeeper didn't think he bought too little, so he took the money cheerfully, and praised Wang Dawei for his filial piety: ordinary people would not be willing to buy such expensive candy to eat, and it is used to honor the elderly at home, so there is "Han Yi Nong" The word "sun" refers to the happy life of the ancient old people.
Play with your grandson while eating candy, not to say give candy to your grandson.
Wang Dawei was a little embarrassed by the praise, and silently withdrew his hands that wanted to taste a piece of malt candy on the spot.
This time I bought a lot of things and it was still early, so Wang Dawei asked the shop assistants to help deliver the goods to the place where Wu Gaoshu sells sugar cane, while he wandered around the city.
He has been traveling for so long, and he has a lot of things to do every day. He came to the county town in a hurry and left in a hurry.It seems that he hasn't fully understood the world yet.
... This "toilet paper" is so expensive, salt is so expensive, and there is no white sugar world.
Wang Dawei turned around the cloth shop, and then entered the gold shop.Ignoring the clerk's disgusting gaze, he went out and looked at the roadside stalls one by one.Slowly learning about the world...and prices.
However, as he walked, Wang Dawei, who had been avoiding reporters' paparazzi all the year round, noticed something was wrong: it seemed that someone was following him!
Turning around suddenly, I saw the little fool standing a foot away, standing aggrieved.
???
"Why didn't you leave?" Wang Dawei was very surprised.Isn't this little idiot just like an arrow?
The little fool pursed his lips aggrievedly: "I... I have no guide, so I can't go!"
He was also happy and touched at the beginning, took the money left by Wang Dawei and walked to the station until he reached the gate of the station...
He was abducted here, without a guide, no bodyguard would dare to escort him.Instead of following the bodyguard bureau and driving on his own, not to mention that the road is not safe, he can't walk the official road without a guide, can't enter the city along the road, and can't go home with only 12 taels of silver.
Miaozhuzhou is more than 600 miles away from Xing'an County where his home is located. He has to pass through many cities and be interrogated many times along the way. He dare not take chances, thinking that he is lucky enough to escape every time.
As long as it is found that there is no way to lead, it is a refugee who deliberately smuggled|immigrated, and according to the law, he will be imprisoned or reduced to slavery for sale.
If you want to lead the way, you must have a reasonable purpose, such as visiting relatives, doing business, etc. First, the local village head will issue a letter of introduction, and then the county magistrate will approve it.
Wang Dawei may be able to cooperate, but he will definitely not be able to pass the county magistrate...
The little fool felt aggrieved, and deliberately frowned from the ugly Korean one-character eyebrows into even uglier eight-character eyebrows.
Wang Dawei: ...
Oh, it turns out that in ancient times, guides were still needed.Wang Dawei thought to himself, what is that, we actors in TV dramas never think about these things, we can go wherever we want, and give us a horse and we can reach the end of the world.
Wang Dawei bought a few meat buns, then went back to the noodle stall nearby and handed them to the little fool: "Eat, the rice noodles will be ready in a while."
The little fool took out the money on his body and pushed it back to Wang Dawei: "I'll give it back to you." He bit his lower lip: "I'm sorry, I stole your money. I..." He couldn't tell that he didn't do it on purpose. For this kind of words, I have to confess honestly: "I originally thought about going home and asking my father and brother to pay you back a hundred times."
He whispered: "I will repay you in the future." Wang Dawei was willing to give him money, although he failed, but he also accepted the love.
Wang Dawei was not happy that the little fool stole his money.But...it's understandable.After all, he also knows that even in modern times, it is very difficult for abducted women and children to escape by themselves.
Among them, some extraordinary means were used, which was also a helpless move forced by the form.
And... who made himself obsessed with sex?Wang Dawei shook his head, and said softly: "I'll talk about this later, let's eat first."
The little fool lowered his head, held the bun and took a bite.
Noodles are a rarity in Miaozhu Prefecture. There are few wheat growers here, and rice is mainly grown and eaten.According to legend, soldiers from the north went to fight here and were not used to eating noodles, so they invented rice noodles in the shape of noodles to relieve their homesickness.
Therefore, the price of steamed stuffed buns that needed flour was also quite expensive, only five cents for one, but Wang Dawei bought four for him in one go.
The little fool is also a northerner, and he is used to eating pasta.Bite down a bun, and feel as if I have returned to my hometown.
The skin of the buns is soft and firm, and the delicious and rich gravy overflows into the mouth, making the little fool's nose a little sore.
Although Wang Dawei took advantage of the danger of the refugees, he bullied men and women (letting refugees marry the villagers of Lazy Man Village), he was fierce and perverted, and he often turned into a perverted obscene devil...but Wang Dawei was willing to give money to him. He is a person who is neither relative nor relative, and let him go home, just... he is quite a good person.
When Wang Dawei left him money, he was really moved: he who stole Wang Dawei's private money knew best how much Wang Dawei had.
And...he came back because he couldn't do without Wang Dawei's protection.
After finding that he could not go home without a guide, he also thought about hiding in other places with the money.But the makeup Wang Dawei painted on him could not last forever, once the real face was revealed, the county magistrate would be able to catch him very quickly.
If he wanted to move around the county and its surroundings freely and find a way to go home, he still had to rely on Wang Dawei.
The little fool sniffled, ate a bun and wiped his mouth: "My name is Song Xie."
After he finished speaking, he peeked nervously at Wang Dawei's face, and seeing that his expression was the same without any fluctuations, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: He was very afraid that Wang Dawei would meet with the county magistrate after hearing his name and knowing his background. a reaction.
"I... I want to borrow to live at your house first, and then slowly think of a way to go home, okay?" He looked at Wang Dawei pitifully with a pair of rabbit eyes: "I will make it up to you when I get home."
Song Xie is the richest man in Xing'an County, Yuxiu Prefecture, and the second son of the Song family.
The Song family not only has a net worth of several 10 taels of silver, but his father, Mr. Song, is also the first discoverer and promoter of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn in the country. Yuxiu Prefecture, where Xing'an County is located, ranks first in the country in terms of annual grain output, surpassing those places in the south where two or three crops are grown.
Therefore, his father's name was even heard in the sky, and he was praised by the emperor as a contemporary Shennong.Xing'an County has become the only way for officials to be promoted.All the officials working in Xing'an County have a good relationship with Mr. Song, and they all hope that Mr. Song can discover some high-yielding crops to improve his political performance when he is in office.
And Master Song himself has no family relatives, nor is he extravagant or extravagant.There is only a very beloved husband, a boy, a younger brother, and a daughter.And love the three children equally regardless of gender.
It was rumored that this year Song Xie's eldest brother, Song Bai, married and went to other state capitals. The business in Xing'an County has gradually passed into the hands of Song Xie himself.
After all, it is an absolute patriarchal society. It is a rare thing for the younger brother of the richest family to be in power. How many storytellers tell it as a legendary gossip story!
But also because of this, the Song family's business rivals deceived him that he was young and a little brother, secretly found someone to kidnap | kidnapped him, and was sold by the kidnappers to a plunderer.
On the road, Song Xie saw the opportunity to jump off the ship and escape. He arrived in Qiongshui County by accident, so he asked the local yamen for help, promising that as long as he was sent home, the Song government would definitely pay him a lot.
The county magistrate of Qiongshui County can be sent to the poor and remote area of Miaozhu Prefecture, which shows that his political achievements and connections are not good, and he probably can't afford to bribe the officials of the official department.
So after he confirmed Song Xie's identity, he had a wrong thought: If he sent Song Xie home safely, at most he could only get money and a favor from Mr. Song's gratitude.But if he takes Song Xie as his concubine, he can get one-third of Master Song's family property and connections!
Not to mention that Song Xie was already beautiful, which made him want to move.
When the time comes, the raw rice will be cooked and the rice will be cooked. No matter how angry Mr. Song is, he has no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it.And in order to keep their children from being tortured by the main wife, they will give a lot of money to please.
The county magistrate's calculations were crackling, but Song Xie ran away.This is simply the tens of thousands of taels of silver in hand gone to nothing, and a good meal for a few days has been posted.This makes him not angry, how can he arrest him even if he is not wanted by the whole city?
Song Xie was very afraid that Wang Dawei would have the same idea as the county magistrate if he knew his life experience.He struggled all the way whether to tell Wang Dawei the truth, but at the moment he was eating a bun, but he made up his mind:
There is no risk-free thing in this world. If you want to seek help, you must properly tell Wang Dawei the truth.Otherwise, the same thing will happen again.
Besides, anyway... Wang Dawei is at least younger than the county magistrate and... well-looking.She doesn't have a family either, so what happened to her with Wang Dawei, that's also her official wife!
Thinking of the sister-in-law who let her elder brother marry, Song Xie's back gradually straightened.
Wang Dawei, who knew nothing about Song Xie's inner changes:? ? ? ?
Why are you puffing up your chest while eating?Is this choking?Wang Dawei poured him a glass of water without any hassle: "Don't talk while eating."
Song Xie: ...
"It's fine to make up for it. You can stay as long as you want. But we can't have more lazy people in our village. You usually have to work with everyone." Wang Dawei winked at him.Wang Dawei didn't have any idea about Song Xie's sudden announcement of his name. He just took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms and joked: "Little rabbit is more suitable for you. The first time I saw you, I felt that your eyes The red one looks like a rabbit, and it looks like it’s running away.”
Embarrassed, Song Xie reached out to snatch the letter torn up by the courier, and said angrily: "That's my nickname, only my parents can call it, you are not allowed to call it!"
At this time, the old man selling rice noodles smiled and said with a large bowl of noodles: "Stop making trouble, be careful not to touch the bowl."
Song Xie immediately sat down obediently, holding up his chopsticks and looking at the old man eagerly.
This old man is very good at cooking, and the soup base is also rich.Just now, the two of them found it just looking for the scent, but now seeing the real thing, Song Xie's mouth is watering.
He likes to eat since he was a child, and his biggest hobby is eating!
In fact, he was not as good-looking as he is now, even a little chubby.As the saying goes, one fat ruins everything... Later, he was starved and thin on the way of looting and fleeing.
At that time, the sudden arrival of beauty made him unaware, so he did not guard against the county magistrate QAQ.
However, the old man brought the rice noodles to Wang Dawei.In a feudal patriarchal society, it is natural for the man in charge to be the first.Wang Dawei watched the little rabbit's bright eyes gradually fade away, his heart softened, and he quickly pushed the bowl in front of him: "You eat first."
Song Xie was pleasantly surprised in an instant, and happily ate it, oh, it's so delicious!
When the old man brought another bowl over, seeing that Song Xie had already eaten it first, he was stunned for a moment.He smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen such a loving couple like you. Sometimes you fight and fight, and sometimes you give way... It's not long since you got married, right?"
Song Xie choked on a mouthful of powder, wanted to defend himself, but remembered that he was combing Fu Lang's hair now in order to pretend, so he blushed and remained silent.
Wang Dawei glanced at his red ears, and said, "Where, the child is already two years old."
Song Xie: "???"
The old man selling|fan was also surprised: "Then you two got married early enough." This guy looks only seventeen or eighteen, but he is already the mother of a two-year-old?Wouldn't it be fourteen five to get married?
There are few women and brothers in Miaozhuzhou, and it is difficult to get married. It takes several years to save money to buy a daughter-in-law. Generally, people get married several years later than other wealthy places. The [-]th Five-Year Plan is really very early.
Wang Dawei continued: "That is, our childhood sweethearts have fallen in love with each other since we were young."
The old man was really envious: "You guys have such a good relationship. It would be great if my son could marry a wife early." It's a pity that there are no women of the right age in their village or the surrounding villages.
The three people in the shop also looked at Wang Dawei, and the tall and thin man asked, "Are you here to find this little husband? Are you the new village head of Lazy, Tiangan'er Village?"
Wang Dawei nodded, walked behind the little fool unobtrusively, and acted as his strong backing: "Exactly."
The attitude of the tall and thin man towards Wang Dawei and the little fool was completely different, it would not be an exaggeration to say that one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.They had read the letter written by the little fool, knew some of the information, and even guessed, at this moment they said to Wang Dawei earnestly: "You are too big, the husband who bought it not long ago dared to let him go Street? The money at home was stolen! If it wasn’t for the brothers who stopped you for you, you would be in big trouble!”
Wang Dawei froze for a moment when he heard "Yinzi", and glanced at the little fool without any trace, and the other party lowered his head guiltily.Before, he argued that he was not a thief and did not steal anything, but now he was caught by the owner. He was a little embarrassed and a little scared.
Wang Dawei...will be very angry.
The old man with old cheekbones stroked his beard and said, "You youngsters, you will be so beautiful after a few breaths of pillow wind. Did he say that he likes you and is willing to live a stable life with you and will never leave? You got dizzy and took him out? This is all a routine, a lie to you, we have seen it too much!"
Obviously nothing happened, but because of his professional habits, Wang Dawei suddenly had a sense of the picture: the little fool shared the bed with him, lying in his ear and saying that he was happy with him... It doesn't even matter where the camera is shot, how the action moves Think it over!
...No no no!I'm a serious actor! How could I shoot something that can't be aired! Σ(っ°Д°;) っ! ! !
Wang Dawei couldn't help but blush with embarrassment at his own brain.In the eyes of everyone in the shop, it seems that the old man has hit the mark.The tall and thin man sighed, and patted Wang Dawei on the shoulder: "Brother, be careful when you go back, take care of the money at home, don't waste your personal money...Your husband is actually literate, these people who have read Ah, there are so many squishy intestines! If I want to see it, I will lock him up in a room and tie him up with a rope. After a year or so, he will not be able to run away when he is pregnant with a child!"
The old man also agreed: "Don't feel bad, the daughter-in-law bought by someone in ten miles and eight towns is dishonest. They all do this. There are also those who are afraid that someone will run away and break their legs."
They saw the little fool writing just now, and found that the handwriting was very neat: there is no nine-year compulsory education these days, and there are not many people who can read.Like the three people in the delivery shop, except for the old man with high cheekbones who is a child who has studied for two years and can write letters for others, the other two only know some common characters and cannot write. out of control.
The handwriting written by this little husband is even more neat and beautiful than that of the old man, it cannot be mastered overnight.Even if ordinary farmers have money to send their children to study, they will definitely not send a little brother there.Brothers who can read these days, either they are very rich and have status in their families, so they hired someone to teach them specially;
No matter which one is found, it will be a big trouble.
Their Miaozhu Prefecture and its surrounding Yazhou and Shizhou are located by the sea, and they are often hit by disasters, and the people are poor.Therefore, the labor force is very important to a family, and patriarchy has become the norm.Some families often drown their daughters or younger brothers on the spot after giving birth, resulting in an imbalance of male to female ratio, and the boys cannot find wives when they grow up.
Therefore, it has become a common practice to buy wives from outside. For example, in Miaozhuzhou, two out of every five people have bought wives.Due to the high demand, formal human trafficking cannot satisfy the local market, and looting and selling have gradually become common practice.
At least half of these foreign wives were plundered and sold.The government is also very clear that although plundering and selling is illegal, the law does not blame the public, and they will turn a blind eye to pretend they don't know, and even help cover it up.
After cutting off the way of plundering and selling, do they want them to watch that the people under the rule can't get a daughter-in-law and the birth rate drops?Who will plant the fields, and how will they collect taxes?This is a famously impoverished place, and even taxes cannot be collected. Do we need political achievements?
And the people, of course, don't want the daughter-in-law they bought at a big price to run away.Therefore, the government and the people were unexpectedly united on this matter: everyone helped each other, and the women and brothers who were looted and sold were not allowed to run away!
If this little husband's father is really a man of fame or power, if he makes a fuss about looting and selling, it will affect all places in the world!
Which family has no relatives and friends, and the daughter-in-law of the neighbors is sold by looting?
For example, these people in the shop, the eldest daughter-in-law of the old man with high cheekbones, the daughter-in-law of the brother-in-law of the tall and thin man, and the daughter-in-law of the taciturn man who has never spoken are all stolen and sold.
They said to Wang Dawei: "They all come here like this, they accept their fate after giving birth to a child."
After hearing what they said, the little fool felt a chill run up his spine.
This place... turned out to be such a hell on earth!It's not scary to meet a wave of bad people, but it's scary that no one around is good... He even foolishly ran to the county government office to ask the county magistrate for help, thinking that the government would send him home.
He's so stupid...it turns out he was wrong in the first place.
Wang Dawei was also silent for a moment, and cupped his hands towards the shoppers: "Thank you for the reminders, brothers and uncles, I will definitely watch him closely in the future, and there will be no mistakes like this again."
After finishing speaking, he grabbed the little fool's slender arm and dragged it out of the door, as if he was wearing a cuckold, and said viciously: "You bastard, dare to lie to your grandpa, let me see how I deal with you when I go back! Just break your leg and forget it!" !"
The little fool was frightened by his sudden change of face, and his eyes widened in horror.
But everyone in the delivery shop showed satisfied smiles, continued to eat tea and sunflower seeds, and watched Wang Dawei drag them out.
"Children can be taught." The old man with high cheekbones was very pleased.
After leaving the shop door, Wang Dawei restrained his aura, but he was still holding onto the little fool's arm tightly.
Wu Gaoshu was still standing under the tree in front of the yamen, guarding his donkey cart, frowning.Seeing Wang Dawei dragging someone back, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay, I didn't get lost."
When they came out of the yamen after completing the land deed, they saw that the donkey cart was empty, and the little fool had disappeared.
Wang Dawei's complexion was not good at that time.Wu Gaoshu was also a little anxious, he came out to check the title deed, if Wang Dawei's foolish husband got lost, even if it wasn't his responsibility, he would inevitably feel a little guilty.
Fortunately, Wang Dawei made a trip and found him.At this time, seeing that the little fool had two bags of tears in his eyes, and the corners of his eyes were red as if he had suffered a great grievance, Wu Gaoshu casually asked, "Where did he go to play? Was he bullied?"
"Runned to the delivery shop next door, bumped into the official inside, and was reprimanded a few times." Wang Dawei said.
Only then did Wu Gaoshu realize that Wang Dawei's complexion was not very good-looking.Wang Dawei's face had already been dark for a long time because of the disappearance of the little fool, but now it has turned livid.
Maybe he was implicated and reprimanded by the official... Wu Gaoshu thought about it, and comforted him in a low voice: "Don't take it to heart, some officials smell bad... Hey, don't mention it."
But these words reached Wang Dawei's heart.
That's right!Those stinking officials! ! !
Who are they?Even if things like plundering and selling gradually become a common practice, it's fine if the people don't raise officials and don't investigate.After all, it was an ancient feudal society, and the requirements should not be too high.
But now someone ran out to ask for help, and they were blocked!
Although the people in the delivery shop all showed a good attitude for Wang Dawei, Wang Dawei didn't appreciate it at all!
In modern times, Wang Dawei, as an influential public figure, always forwarded Weibo of lost children every time he saw them; The abducted children who came out had to stay in the local orphanage because they couldn't remember their home address. He originally thought about paying out of his own pocket to subsidize the money to send the abducted brother Cheng back, but Cheng didn't want to.
A party member like him who has devoted his life to public welfare will not join forces with these criminals! ! !
Wang Dawei didn't want to talk more about this with Wu Gaoshu, after all, they were still at the gate of the yamen.He said: "Brother Wu, I'll take him to the medical clinic first, and meet at the gate of the city at sunset."
"That's right, that's the serious business." Seeing Wang Dawei's expression soften, Wu Gaoshu heaved a sigh of relief.He discovered it last time, and this kid's serious face is really scary... "I'm selling sugarcane on the street in front of me. You can ask the guy to deliver you when you buy something. I'll go to the gate of the city at sunset."
The two agreed and parted ways.Without saying a word, Wang Dawei dragged the little fool to the direction of Shuimayi.
"Let go of me...it hurts so much from you grabbing me..." The little fool struggled until Wu Gaoshu was no longer visible after walking away.The angry Wang Dawei is so scary, even scarier than when he turned into a pervert and a lewd demon.The little animal's intuition made the little fool want to stay away from him.
The water horse station is not too far from the delivery shop, two streets away, and there is a post house for entertaining officials in the middle, three points and one line.
Shuimayi is adjacent to the main road and official road, and there are many stalls selling food nearby, which is quite lively.Wang Dawei stopped, didn't go that way, but dragged the little fool to find a secluded and deserted place, and then let him go.
The little fool clutched his wrist and took several steps back, relying on a tree to cover half of his body, he felt a little safer.
He stole Wang Dawei's money, Wang Dawei must be very angry, his wrist has purple marks!So fierce and terrible!
He had long discovered that Wang Dawei seemed to hate thieves. Before the county magistrate framed him for theft, he was interrogated several times by Wang Dawei.Now that he really committed the crime in his hands, will he be beaten? QQ
Wang Dawei almost laughed angrily at him.If there is one good person in this world who is willing to let you go home, then that is my party member, okay? !
But looking at those rabbit eyes with tears in their eyes and red corners, Wang Dawei still couldn't bear to curse out.
He felt around his waist and took out ten taels of silver from his belt.
In this world, an acre of good fertile land can be sold for six or seven taels of silver. The fields in Tiangan'er Village were originally fertile fields, but they were ruined because of the laziness of the villagers.Dian has been raised by Wujiazhuang for a few years, but it is not very good.In addition, Wu Gaoshu was the village head of Wujiazhuang, so he sold it to him for five taels of silver per mu.
Four acres of paddy fields total 20 taels.It costs about five or six taels of silver to pay food taxes, and the rest of the money has to be arranged for group weddings, and it is inevitable that there will be emergencies in helping new refugees settle down.
"That's all I can take out now, and I don't want the money you took from my room last night. You can go and go back to your house." Wang Dawei pointed to the water horse station not far away.
The little fool was completely stupid this time. "you……"
Isn't he dreaming? ?Wang Dawei is so generous, don't hold him accountable for stealing money, let him go and give him back the money? ?
Wang Dawei endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back, and complained: "Why don't you discuss it with me? If you have a way to go home, you can tell me. If we send letters together, those guards will not be suspicious... ..."
The guard was obviously just in case the bought daughter-in-law would run away, but he was very friendly and trusting to the locals, and he would not believe that the locals would be stupid enough to let the bought daughter-in-law go.
As long as they pretend to be ordinary couples and send letters to their relatives, they will not end up like this now!
But it's too late to say that now.If Wang Dawei were to send the letter at this moment, those guards must be vigilant, knowing that there was a "traitor" among the locals.
Seeing the little fool's fear of him, Wang Dawei sighed and said no more.He put the silver on the ground in front of the little fool, turned around and left.
It's like feeding a vigilant animal...Wang Dawei thought as he walked, he wouldn't dare to eat if he stood nearby, and he wouldn't dare to eat until he walked away.
Vigilant, suspicious, and... not very well-fed.Wang Dawei felt a little sad.
He thought he was really good to this little fool, little liar, and little villain... When he ran into him for "stealing" and was chased, he didn't report it on the spot, and found that he pretended to be stupid and didn't expose him on the spot. And pay him to send him away...
Although he would spend a lot of money for charity in modern times, but because he was born in an orphanage and was afraid of poverty, Wang Dawei has never felt very secure about money.
To put it simply, he will only spend half of his entire property: if he has 100 yuan, he will save 50 yuan and spend the other 50 yuan.
If there is 5000 million yuan, 5000 million yuan will be saved, and the other [-] million yuan will be invested for public welfare.
I'm afraid that when the investment fails and the loss is too large, it will be beaten back to its original shape and penniless.
But now, he took out assets that far exceeded his own, and even overdrawn the public property that was originally intended to be used as village fees to the little fool.
At this time, Wang Dawei had to admit that he was indeed obsessed with sex.
It's amazing to look good.Wang Dawei thought angrily, and cursed himself for being worthless.
It's not like I haven't seen such a good-looking person in modern times, and I haven't seen myself being tempted.Are there any beauties in the entertainment circle who are fat and thin?As a popular front-line man, how many people want to hug his thighs, and how many fans just want to sleep with Wang Dawei.
She herself looks good too, okay?
But now he is lame, so he likes that little liar.
Wang Dawei recalled the first time he saw the little liar, those red and pitiful eyes exposed in the pile of wood.
Maybe...it was through those eyes that I saw myself helpless in the orphanage, and thousands of friends who were equally helpless, that's why I...
A young man who doesn't know love and hate, is the most excited in his life...? ? ? ?What a mess!Wang Dawei got rid of the weird thoughts in his head, and decided to use shopping to resolve the sadness of broken love (?.
He had drawn up a recipe for the group wedding last night—it was a recipe, but it was just cooking a few big pots of vegetables, and each person scooped up a bowl or two, without setting the table.
Braised pork with potatoes in brown sauce, stewed cabbage and blood sausage with big bones, fried wild vegetables with lard, and a pot of seaweed and egg drop soup, which is considered a good meal in the village.
After all, their village is a village that eats porridge almost all year round.
The potatoes, cabbage and eggs in these dishes can be purchased from people in Wujiazhuang and other surrounding villages, and the price can be cheaper.The wild vegetables are picked directly from the mountains, and the pork and lard are much needed, and they can also be ordered directly from the pig farmers in the nearby villages.Only condiments such as seaweed, salt and soy sauce have to be bought in the city.
Before reaching the grocery store, Wang Dawei saw a bookstore first, and walked in after turning around.
He was going to buy some pens and paper to record the village's public accounts, such as the income from selling Zhao Shitou's land, such as the expenses of the collective wedding. In the future, the village will also record the income.
Regardless of whether the villagers can understand it or not, making an account book will show that he is magnanimous, so as to avoid those who suspect that he is greedy for the money from selling the land and let him spit it out multiple times.
Although he wasn't the soft persimmon that the original owner was easy to pinch, he didn't like trouble either.It's best to shut the mouths of the villagers so clearly.
In addition, he himself has some things to remember in his daily life.For example, the menu of a collective wedding, a list of things to buy.
Now he uses a small wooden stick to scratch and write on the leaves. It will be fine for a day or two, but the leaves will rot after a long time.It is really inconvenient to not have a pen and paper. Even the document for his succession as the village chief was written in Wu Gaoshu's pen and paper with the cheek of Wu Gaoshu in Wujiazhuang...
Wang Chengliang also left a copy of the village's household registration book, but he has no pen and ink, and cannot register the household registration of the refugees.
The bookstore clerk looked at his clothes, but he didn't neglect him because of his simple clothes. Hearing that Wang Dawei wanted to buy some paper and pens, he thoughtfully led him to the area where cheap pens, inks, papers and inkstones were placed.These days, there are not a few poor farmers who rely on reading to get ahead. Who knows which piece of cloud has rain, and they will get ahead.
If you don't keep the one in front of you, you can become Tian Shelang in the court and ascend to the Tianzitang in the evening.
However, this guy is also very clever and has a wink. Although he led Wang Dawei to the cheap area, he said: "Our store is the largest bookstore in Qiongshui County, and we sell more books, paper and pens than other places. Even the prince There is also Xuelang paper used in the government! But you scholars are very good at practicing calligraphy, so it is not too late for me to use it in high school. The raw edge paper and Yuanshu paper produced in Miaozhu Prefecture are also very good. of."
Scholars have a good face, so he can cover up the shame caused by poverty for them.
Raw edge paper and yuanshu paper are both made of bamboo, and the quality is inferior to rice paper.In addition, it is produced locally in Miaozhu Prefecture, which saves transportation costs, and the buddy really thinks it is a good deal.
Wang Dawei followed his introduction, and saw that the guy was referring to some yellow paper.
Wang Dawei: ...
Isn't this the true color of bamboo pulp that has become popular in modern times for advocating environmental protection... toilet paper?A lot of drawing papers have also begun to do this.
Oh, it's a little worse than the quality of paper.After Wang Dawei touched it, he commented numbly in his heart.
The raw edge paper is not much different from modern bamboo pulp paper, one side is smooth and the other is rough. Wang Dawei once experienced it, and the comfort is not as good as ordinary toilet paper. Of course, the raw edge paper is slightly thicker than toilet paper and toilet paper, and the paper quality is a bit brittle. Like the homework paper I used when I was a child...
If it is used to write brush characters, the rough side is easy to smudge, while the smooth side does not support ink, and it needs to dry smoothly after writing.
If you pick up the writing vertically after writing, you may be able to shed ink.
Yuanshu paper is even rougher, a low-profile version of raw-edged paper.
But even these papers, which are inferior to modern toilet paper, are not cheap.Raw edge paper costs a hundred pennies a knife, and yuan book paper costs seventy pennies.There are seventy sheets for one knife, and the width is four feet, which is quite a lot.
Fortunately, he is not a real scholar, and it doesn't take a lot of paper to do some simple village registration.In the end, Wang Dawei bought half a knife of raw-edged paper, a duck feather pen, and half a piece of low-quality residual ink, which cost a total of 130 Wen.
He stopped buying the inkstone, and he planned to go to the mountain to find a stone to replace it.
It was the first time for Wang Dawei to know that duck feathers can also be used to make pens. It is made of duck breast hair. The tip of the pen is very soft and not easy to write.
After leaving the bookstore, Wang Dawei went to the grocery store again, and bought two catties of salt, one catty of soy sauce, and two taels of seaweed, which cost three hundred Wen, of which soy sauce was the bulk.
Miaozhu Prefecture is near the sea. Although Qiongshui County is inland, seafood such as seaweed and dried shrimp are quite cheap.Two taels of dried seaweed can be soaked into a large pot, and a dozen eggs are added to it. If it is not enough, just add water to it.
Wang Dawei looked at the things in his hand, and asked the boss, "Is there any sugar?"
Braised pork still needs to be fried with sugar to taste better, and stir-fried wild vegetables can also be added with a little sugar to enhance the freshness.
"Yes, I have the most complete stock here, even honey." Wang Dawei bought several hundred dollars, and the shopkeeper was very happy, so he brought the jar over on the spot.
Wang Dawei saw that there were two kinds of sugar: one was amber-colored viscous syrup like honey, which was the raw material for sugar-blowers and sugar paintings he had seen when he was a child; Sesame candies, but without sesame seeds.
Both are maltose, which was called caramel in ancient times.It just doesn't have the white sugar that is common in modern times.
Wang Dawei fell into deep thought.There are many people growing sugar cane in Miaozhu Prefecture, but there is no sucrose... Then he remembered that sucrose was very rare in ancient China, and it was impossible to purify the pure white sugar of modern color, but mainly brown sugar and brown sugar, and Do more medicine.Ordinary people use maltose instead of sugar.
This is due to the fact that he acted in a TV series "Sugar Dynasty" about the development of China's sugar production not long ago. However, the background of the time was in the Republic of China, and Wang Dawei didn't study the further knowledge too carefully, just glanced at it briefly.
Today, even maltose, known as Yi, was a light luxury product in ancient times, more expensive than salt, costing seventy Wen per catty.It's not like salt is a must. Ordinary people don't buy sugar when they have nothing to do.
Curious, Wang Dawei bought a little of each item and spent another fifty Wen.
The shopkeeper didn't think he bought too little, so he took the money cheerfully, and praised Wang Dawei for his filial piety: ordinary people would not be willing to buy such expensive candy to eat, and it is used to honor the elderly at home, so there is "Han Yi Nong" The word "sun" refers to the happy life of the ancient old people.
Play with your grandson while eating candy, not to say give candy to your grandson.
Wang Dawei was a little embarrassed by the praise, and silently withdrew his hands that wanted to taste a piece of malt candy on the spot.
This time I bought a lot of things and it was still early, so Wang Dawei asked the shop assistants to help deliver the goods to the place where Wu Gaoshu sells sugar cane, while he wandered around the city.
He has been traveling for so long, and he has a lot of things to do every day. He came to the county town in a hurry and left in a hurry.It seems that he hasn't fully understood the world yet.
... This "toilet paper" is so expensive, salt is so expensive, and there is no white sugar world.
Wang Dawei turned around the cloth shop, and then entered the gold shop.Ignoring the clerk's disgusting gaze, he went out and looked at the roadside stalls one by one.Slowly learning about the world...and prices.
However, as he walked, Wang Dawei, who had been avoiding reporters' paparazzi all the year round, noticed something was wrong: it seemed that someone was following him!
Turning around suddenly, I saw the little fool standing a foot away, standing aggrieved.
???
"Why didn't you leave?" Wang Dawei was very surprised.Isn't this little idiot just like an arrow?
The little fool pursed his lips aggrievedly: "I... I have no guide, so I can't go!"
He was also happy and touched at the beginning, took the money left by Wang Dawei and walked to the station until he reached the gate of the station...
He was abducted here, without a guide, no bodyguard would dare to escort him.Instead of following the bodyguard bureau and driving on his own, not to mention that the road is not safe, he can't walk the official road without a guide, can't enter the city along the road, and can't go home with only 12 taels of silver.
Miaozhuzhou is more than 600 miles away from Xing'an County where his home is located. He has to pass through many cities and be interrogated many times along the way. He dare not take chances, thinking that he is lucky enough to escape every time.
As long as it is found that there is no way to lead, it is a refugee who deliberately smuggled|immigrated, and according to the law, he will be imprisoned or reduced to slavery for sale.
If you want to lead the way, you must have a reasonable purpose, such as visiting relatives, doing business, etc. First, the local village head will issue a letter of introduction, and then the county magistrate will approve it.
Wang Dawei may be able to cooperate, but he will definitely not be able to pass the county magistrate...
The little fool felt aggrieved, and deliberately frowned from the ugly Korean one-character eyebrows into even uglier eight-character eyebrows.
Wang Dawei: ...
Oh, it turns out that in ancient times, guides were still needed.Wang Dawei thought to himself, what is that, we actors in TV dramas never think about these things, we can go wherever we want, and give us a horse and we can reach the end of the world.
Wang Dawei bought a few meat buns, then went back to the noodle stall nearby and handed them to the little fool: "Eat, the rice noodles will be ready in a while."
The little fool took out the money on his body and pushed it back to Wang Dawei: "I'll give it back to you." He bit his lower lip: "I'm sorry, I stole your money. I..." He couldn't tell that he didn't do it on purpose. For this kind of words, I have to confess honestly: "I originally thought about going home and asking my father and brother to pay you back a hundred times."
He whispered: "I will repay you in the future." Wang Dawei was willing to give him money, although he failed, but he also accepted the love.
Wang Dawei was not happy that the little fool stole his money.But...it's understandable.After all, he also knows that even in modern times, it is very difficult for abducted women and children to escape by themselves.
Among them, some extraordinary means were used, which was also a helpless move forced by the form.
And... who made himself obsessed with sex?Wang Dawei shook his head, and said softly: "I'll talk about this later, let's eat first."
The little fool lowered his head, held the bun and took a bite.
Noodles are a rarity in Miaozhu Prefecture. There are few wheat growers here, and rice is mainly grown and eaten.According to legend, soldiers from the north went to fight here and were not used to eating noodles, so they invented rice noodles in the shape of noodles to relieve their homesickness.
Therefore, the price of steamed stuffed buns that needed flour was also quite expensive, only five cents for one, but Wang Dawei bought four for him in one go.
The little fool is also a northerner, and he is used to eating pasta.Bite down a bun, and feel as if I have returned to my hometown.
The skin of the buns is soft and firm, and the delicious and rich gravy overflows into the mouth, making the little fool's nose a little sore.
Although Wang Dawei took advantage of the danger of the refugees, he bullied men and women (letting refugees marry the villagers of Lazy Man Village), he was fierce and perverted, and he often turned into a perverted obscene devil...but Wang Dawei was willing to give money to him. He is a person who is neither relative nor relative, and let him go home, just... he is quite a good person.
When Wang Dawei left him money, he was really moved: he who stole Wang Dawei's private money knew best how much Wang Dawei had.
And...he came back because he couldn't do without Wang Dawei's protection.
After finding that he could not go home without a guide, he also thought about hiding in other places with the money.But the makeup Wang Dawei painted on him could not last forever, once the real face was revealed, the county magistrate would be able to catch him very quickly.
If he wanted to move around the county and its surroundings freely and find a way to go home, he still had to rely on Wang Dawei.
The little fool sniffled, ate a bun and wiped his mouth: "My name is Song Xie."
After he finished speaking, he peeked nervously at Wang Dawei's face, and seeing that his expression was the same without any fluctuations, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: He was very afraid that Wang Dawei would meet with the county magistrate after hearing his name and knowing his background. a reaction.
"I... I want to borrow to live at your house first, and then slowly think of a way to go home, okay?" He looked at Wang Dawei pitifully with a pair of rabbit eyes: "I will make it up to you when I get home."
Song Xie is the richest man in Xing'an County, Yuxiu Prefecture, and the second son of the Song family.
The Song family not only has a net worth of several 10 taels of silver, but his father, Mr. Song, is also the first discoverer and promoter of high-yield crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn in the country. Yuxiu Prefecture, where Xing'an County is located, ranks first in the country in terms of annual grain output, surpassing those places in the south where two or three crops are grown.
Therefore, his father's name was even heard in the sky, and he was praised by the emperor as a contemporary Shennong.Xing'an County has become the only way for officials to be promoted.All the officials working in Xing'an County have a good relationship with Mr. Song, and they all hope that Mr. Song can discover some high-yielding crops to improve his political performance when he is in office.
And Master Song himself has no family relatives, nor is he extravagant or extravagant.There is only a very beloved husband, a boy, a younger brother, and a daughter.And love the three children equally regardless of gender.
It was rumored that this year Song Xie's eldest brother, Song Bai, married and went to other state capitals. The business in Xing'an County has gradually passed into the hands of Song Xie himself.
After all, it is an absolute patriarchal society. It is a rare thing for the younger brother of the richest family to be in power. How many storytellers tell it as a legendary gossip story!
But also because of this, the Song family's business rivals deceived him that he was young and a little brother, secretly found someone to kidnap | kidnapped him, and was sold by the kidnappers to a plunderer.
On the road, Song Xie saw the opportunity to jump off the ship and escape. He arrived in Qiongshui County by accident, so he asked the local yamen for help, promising that as long as he was sent home, the Song government would definitely pay him a lot.
The county magistrate of Qiongshui County can be sent to the poor and remote area of Miaozhu Prefecture, which shows that his political achievements and connections are not good, and he probably can't afford to bribe the officials of the official department.
So after he confirmed Song Xie's identity, he had a wrong thought: If he sent Song Xie home safely, at most he could only get money and a favor from Mr. Song's gratitude.But if he takes Song Xie as his concubine, he can get one-third of Master Song's family property and connections!
Not to mention that Song Xie was already beautiful, which made him want to move.
When the time comes, the raw rice will be cooked and the rice will be cooked. No matter how angry Mr. Song is, he has no choice but to pinch his nose and admit it.And in order to keep their children from being tortured by the main wife, they will give a lot of money to please.
The county magistrate's calculations were crackling, but Song Xie ran away.This is simply the tens of thousands of taels of silver in hand gone to nothing, and a good meal for a few days has been posted.This makes him not angry, how can he arrest him even if he is not wanted by the whole city?
Song Xie was very afraid that Wang Dawei would have the same idea as the county magistrate if he knew his life experience.He struggled all the way whether to tell Wang Dawei the truth, but at the moment he was eating a bun, but he made up his mind:
There is no risk-free thing in this world. If you want to seek help, you must properly tell Wang Dawei the truth.Otherwise, the same thing will happen again.
Besides, anyway... Wang Dawei is at least younger than the county magistrate and... well-looking.She doesn't have a family either, so what happened to her with Wang Dawei, that's also her official wife!
Thinking of the sister-in-law who let her elder brother marry, Song Xie's back gradually straightened.
Wang Dawei, who knew nothing about Song Xie's inner changes:? ? ? ?
Why are you puffing up your chest while eating?Is this choking?Wang Dawei poured him a glass of water without any hassle: "Don't talk while eating."
Song Xie: ...
"It's fine to make up for it. You can stay as long as you want. But we can't have more lazy people in our village. You usually have to work with everyone." Wang Dawei winked at him.Wang Dawei didn't have any idea about Song Xie's sudden announcement of his name. He just took out a crumpled piece of paper from his arms and joked: "Little rabbit is more suitable for you. The first time I saw you, I felt that your eyes The red one looks like a rabbit, and it looks like it’s running away.”
Embarrassed, Song Xie reached out to snatch the letter torn up by the courier, and said angrily: "That's my nickname, only my parents can call it, you are not allowed to call it!"
At this time, the old man selling rice noodles smiled and said with a large bowl of noodles: "Stop making trouble, be careful not to touch the bowl."
Song Xie immediately sat down obediently, holding up his chopsticks and looking at the old man eagerly.
This old man is very good at cooking, and the soup base is also rich.Just now, the two of them found it just looking for the scent, but now seeing the real thing, Song Xie's mouth is watering.
He likes to eat since he was a child, and his biggest hobby is eating!
In fact, he was not as good-looking as he is now, even a little chubby.As the saying goes, one fat ruins everything... Later, he was starved and thin on the way of looting and fleeing.
At that time, the sudden arrival of beauty made him unaware, so he did not guard against the county magistrate QAQ.
However, the old man brought the rice noodles to Wang Dawei.In a feudal patriarchal society, it is natural for the man in charge to be the first.Wang Dawei watched the little rabbit's bright eyes gradually fade away, his heart softened, and he quickly pushed the bowl in front of him: "You eat first."
Song Xie was pleasantly surprised in an instant, and happily ate it, oh, it's so delicious!
When the old man brought another bowl over, seeing that Song Xie had already eaten it first, he was stunned for a moment.He smiled and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen such a loving couple like you. Sometimes you fight and fight, and sometimes you give way... It's not long since you got married, right?"
Song Xie choked on a mouthful of powder, wanted to defend himself, but remembered that he was combing Fu Lang's hair now in order to pretend, so he blushed and remained silent.
Wang Dawei glanced at his red ears, and said, "Where, the child is already two years old."
Song Xie: "???"
The old man selling|fan was also surprised: "Then you two got married early enough." This guy looks only seventeen or eighteen, but he is already the mother of a two-year-old?Wouldn't it be fourteen five to get married?
There are few women and brothers in Miaozhuzhou, and it is difficult to get married. It takes several years to save money to buy a daughter-in-law. Generally, people get married several years later than other wealthy places. The [-]th Five-Year Plan is really very early.
Wang Dawei continued: "That is, our childhood sweethearts have fallen in love with each other since we were young."
The old man was really envious: "You guys have such a good relationship. It would be great if my son could marry a wife early." It's a pity that there are no women of the right age in their village or the surrounding villages.
