North and South groceries

When the new kang of the Chen family was ready, the old men and the old ladies were all nestled on the kang and refused to come down. They also sent servants to invite many old people they knew to come over, and prepared some snacks to invite people to come to his house to experience it. The warmth of the kang.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen doted on their grandson very much. Many people in Taiyuan City said that their grandson was spoiled by the elders in the family, and he was unable to accomplish anything.

This time my grandson got such a good item for them, so naturally I have to do my best to publicize it. On the one hand, it is to show off the image of my grandson, and on the other hand, it is naturally to show off. Look how filial my grandson is. With such a good and warm kang, how is your grandson doing?

Those old men and old ladies who went to Chen's house to experience the heated kang for a day trip were naturally very envious. Leaving aside the grandson of the Chen family, the heated kang in his house is really warm.

So in the next few days, some people sent people to Lishi County to invite Pankang masters. Lishi County is poor and poor, but it is not very far from Taiyuan Mansion. From Taiyuan, go through Fenyang first. , and then to Lishi, the total distance is less than four hundred miles. If you go horse racing, you will arrive in a few days.

As for the time when they brought people to Taiyuan City, it is already the first month, and more than half of this winter has passed, so who cares, anyway, it will be a day to warm up, they are so old, and not everyone can live to the next day a winter.

As for the two dark and strong men who were brought to Taiyuan Mansion by the young master of the Chen family, they naturally took the lead this time. In the days that followed, the business never stopped, and all the people who invited them to go to the kang Some wealthy families, while excited, the two of them never forgot what Luo Yong said at the beginning, don't look at what you shouldn't look at, don't take what you shouldn't take.

Those employers actually communicated with each other. Seeing the behavior of these two people, they have praised them several times in private. The wages are paid readily, and they are very relieved to introduce them to acquaintances.

In Lishi County, Luo Yong had brought the money and food they had earned these days, as well as gifts from many urban residents, back to Xipo Village for the New Year.

The return trip was in the Lin family's ox cart. I heard that they were going back to the village today. Lin Dalang drove the ox cart to the county town early this morning. Lin Wulang has recently earned a lot of money and food in the city, and the whole family can live a good year. , It's nothing to drive over to pick them up.

Regarding the income for the past few days, after discussing with several people, it was decided that all the money and food would be added up, half of which would be used by Luo, and the other half would be shared among the three of them.

In addition, there are some thank-you gifts for teaching people to cook the kang, and when they help people to cook the kang, sometimes the host will give some other things, and whoever gets those things will go to whoever gets them. Things are the most among the four, and the other three combined are not as much as he alone.

When I left the city, I took the same road that I entered the city at the beginning, and there were still high and low adobe houses on both sides of the road. This Lishi county town does not look like a prosperous place, but this time, these same scenery In Luo Yong's eyes, he was a little more kind.

Even if it is poor and depressed, it can't compare to those prosperous big cities outside, but this is the hometown of Luo Sanlang, and it is also the hometown of Luo Yong.This Lishi County is the place where Luo Sanlang's dream started, and it is also the first city that Luo Yong has seen since he came to this era.

On the day they went out of the city, the wind was not too strong, and there were fine snowflakes floating in the sky. This kind of weather is very common in winter, but it is not suitable for going out.

Many people in the city learned that Luo Sanlang and the others were going back to Xipo Village today, and they all came out to see him off. There was also a little lady who hurried over from a nearby alley, stuffed two pairs of cloth shoes into Luo Yong's arms, and then ran away in a hurry It opened, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Luo put away the shoes with a smile and didn't say much.He knew this little girl, her brother and her father had learned how to cook a kang from Luo Yong, and Luo Yong had seen her a few times, and every time he looked over, he saw a little girl with a red face.

The little girl was probably aroused, and Luo Yong didn't express anything special about it, neither approaching nor alienating deliberately.

Fourteen or fifteen years old is the age when she loves to dream, so it doesn't matter if she has a dream, when the time comes, she will wake up naturally.Luo Yong hoped that when she recalled today's scene many years later, she would still have a smile on her face.

"Sanlang, are you going to marry a wife?" Tian Chonghu's mood has been a little too high these days.

"Stop talking nonsense, be careful not to ruin that little lady's reputation." Luo Yong reminded him.

"Pretending to be that old master again." Tian Chonghu pouted.

It's strange to say that he and Luo Yong are four years apart, and he grows fast, not much shorter than Luo Sanlang, but these days in the city, everyone treats Luo Sanlang as an adult, and Tian Chonghu is treated like an adult by others. Be a little kid doing errands.

"If you talk nonsense again, I won't take you out next time." Tian Yong said to Tian Chonghu.

"I see, I won't talk nonsense." Tian Chonghu agreed honestly, and then said: "Uncle, shall we come out to help people in the next year?" Even if they can't get business in Lishi County, they You can also go to other counties, and you can also go to Taiyuan Prefecture.

"No." Tian Yong said: "Sanlang said he would teach us how to make tofu, have you forgotten? You can earn some money and food by helping people on the kang, but after all, it is better to make tofu in the village with peace of mind. If you are running around, how can you be at home?" good."

"That's right." Tian Chonghu said.Selling tofu in the village, he can also watch over his sister. Tian Chonghu is still worried that when he is not at home, his parents will sell his sister to someone else to be a little girl.It's just that if you want to make tofu, with their family's situation, they probably can't compete with other people in the village. Oh, I'm so sad...

It takes several hours to ride an ox cart on this road. Lin Dalang and Lin Wulang are very happy talking and laughing. Tian Yong and Tian Chonghu, the cousins ​​and nephews, also have a lot in common. Pocket all the way silly fun.

The pockets were full of clumps of soft and fluffy cashmere, which Luo Yong got from a family who asked them to cook a kang.

The family originally bought the cashmere, intending to waft it into the quilt as a quilt core. After Luo Yong helped them set up the kang, the family's demand for cashmere quilts was not as urgent as before. Evened some cashmere inside, and readily agreed.

Since Luo Yong came here, he often saw Luo Erniang and the others kneading hemp thread. The hemp fiber, the hemp thread kneaded by their hands, can be thin, soft and strong. With that kind of craftsmanship, it takes a few balls of wool Come out, it's just like playing.

When he was looking through the computers in the space earlier, he had seen some content about dyeing with natural plants, and he could use it now.

After rubbing the wool and dyeing it, it can be used to knit sweaters. Luo Yong knows a little bit by himself. In the past, when Grandma Luo was knitting sweaters at home, Luo Yong did it a few times when she was fine.

When Luo uses it, he only needs to tell Aunt Luo Luo Erniang about the general principle, and I believe that with the ingenuity of his two sisters, he will be able to make a sweater.

The first thing Luo Yong wanted to wear was turtleneck sweaters. How can there be no turtleneck sweaters in winter? I believe that as long as he can make things, the people of Tang Dynasty will definitely fall in love with turtleneck sweaters.

At that time, whether you are wearing a short brown robe or a deep coat, you can match it with a turtleneck sweater.As long as he imagined the scene of noble students walking on the avenue with a turtleneck sweater inside and a cross-collar robe outside, Luo Yong couldn't help being happy.

And those Wuling teenagers who like to hang out on horseback can also try turtleneck sweaters, it is very cold on horseback.It is also not easy for those officials who have to get up at four or five o'clock to go to court. In addition, I heard that the Tai Chi Palace where the emperor's family lives is also cold in winter and hot in summer...

Turtleneck sweater, cashmere long johns, hehe.

I heard from the villagers that when Sanlang and the others came back today, Luo Erniang and the others had been waiting at home early in the morning. They had burned the kang in Sanlang's house early and wrapped his favorite tofu corners.

Siniang Wulang climbed several times to the small dirt slope next to his house, waiting for his elder brother to bring them back delicious food.But Er Niang was a little worried, although the county town is good, it is not my home after all, San Lang is out these days, I don't know if he has lost weight.

It was so easy to wait until the ox cart of the Lin family arrived in front of the yard. The siblings ran out to have a look, but they saw Luo Sanlang lying in the ox cart with a burlap bag in his arms, sleeping soundly, and his body was still covered with a lot of cloth and fur. , It is said that it is a gift from the people in the city to Saburo.

When he was woken up while he was soundly asleep, Luo Yong squinted his eyes and looked at the crowd with a dazed look on his face.Erniang was very happy when she saw that he was sleeping with a flushed face and a good complexion. Instead of losing weight after entering the city for a few days, Erniang seemed to have gained some flesh. He went back to the house and continued to sleep.

Luo used this sleep to sleep until the next morning. He is only 14 years old now, and it is time for him to eat more and sleep more to grow his body.

He stayed up late and stayed up too much in the past few days, so it's better not to do that in the future, he still wants to grow a few centimeters, he doesn't want to grow into a short winter melon, he also wants to live a few more years, he doesn't want to be a short-lived ghost.

This trip to the city has yielded a lot. Now that the family has meat and food, and saved some money, they can finally live with peace of mind.

Take a wooden stick to the stove and stir the sauce jars one by one.

I heard that the sauce needs to be dried in the sun, and the sauce that comes out of the sun is more fragrant than the sauce that comes out of the shade, but the cold outside, put it in the yard for a night, and the sauce tank has to be frozen, let alone stir it with a wooden stick right now. Even if you hit it with a stone, you may not be able to move it.

Luo Sanlang was very worried about whether this batch of miso and soy sauce would be successful.

After breakfast, Luo Yong took out his bag of cashmere: "Sister, can you knead these into wool for me?"

"Wool?" Erniang asked in confusion.She had only heard of twine and silk, not wool.

"The thread made of wool is naturally wool." Luo Yong said with a smile.
