Anyang is in another world

Waking up early in the morning, thinking of the conversation at the village head's house yesterday, Anyang felt that there was a long way to go.Not to mention that the marriage is coming soon, even if it is economical and simple, the etiquette cannot be discarded, and there is still everything that should be there. I don't care about being laughed at, but when the new husband marries in, the marriage arrangements are a head short of others, and he will be looked down upon by others.Moreover, marriage is a big event once in a lifetime. Although we haven't met each other yet, we must give him a beautiful wedding within our ability.The house at home is dilapidated, and I can't fill my stomach. If I want to change the status quo, I'm afraid I have to pick up old craftsmanship.

But the most urgent task is to improve the predicament at home first.Now I have no land and no money, so I still have to go up the mountain to find some wild animals to make a living, save some money, buy some piglets, chickens, and raise some livestock, so that the life of the family will gradually improve. The most important thing is to build a few new houses and have a safe and comfortable place to live.

Although I don't have any money now, I can do it myself and clean up the inside and outside of the house first.The original owner was a young man who lived by himself since he was a child. He had no relatives to teach him, and he never paid attention to the furnishings of the house.Anyang fetched a basin of water from the well, took out a clean cloth, soaked it, and started cleaning the house.Wipe the Eight Immortals table clean, tidy up the kitchen, clean up the floors in several rooms, and put everything in order.After a busy morning, I was sweating and a little hungry.

I picked four eggplants from the vegetable garden, peeled them, put them in a bowl, steamed them in a pot, peeled the garlic and smashed them, threw them into a bowl, put a little oil in the pot, and cooked them two days before adding them. The wild salamander found in the mountains, sauté until fragrant, pour it into the eggplant while it is hot, add a little salt, and this steamed eggplant puree is ready.Since there is no rice at home, I can't make pasta, so I have to steam another meal of brown rice, which is not bad with the fragrant tomato puree.But it’s not a problem to always eat brown rice. Besides, Anyang is a true northerner, and he still likes to eat more pasta.

I learned from Grandma Li that tomorrow is a big fair in the town. If there is anything missing at home, I can make Mr. Niu’s ox cart and buy some necessities in the town early tomorrow morning. The round trip of the ox cart only costs two cents. The foot fee is still a good deal.

Anyang counted the copper coins in his hands, and then remembered the wild mushrooms he picked up a few days ago, which should be sold at a reasonable price to subsidize some households.Put away the mushrooms and put them away. I originally thought that I would go to the mountains again today to hunt wild animals and pick up mountain treasures, so that I could sell more tomorrow to supplement my family's wealth.However, it was getting late and I was a little tired today, so I stopped thinking about going to the mountain, and planned to go to the mountain early on a cool day after Daji, and look for it.

Before thinking too much, someone knocked on the door of the house. "Boy An, are you at home?"

"Hey, here we come!" Anyang put down what he was doing, washed his hands, and hurried to open the door.

"Grandma Liu, why are you here when you have time?" An Yang asked suspiciously.

"Boy An, didn't you tell you Grandma Liu that there are good chicks for you to keep, no, Grandma brought them here for you."

An Yang patted his forehead, "Grandma Liu, you see, I have a lot of things to do these two days, I seem to be busy and forgot, but thanks to you thinking about it, I sent it here, come in quickly, drink a bowl of water, and cool off."

Grandma Liu walked into the yard with Anyang while smiling. "Boy An, I said this because I have met my grandma. Not to mention that we have been neighbors for many years, you can be regarded as I watched you grow up. Besides, your grandma and I have a close relationship. The guy in our family I'm getting along well with your dad, so I should take care of it."

"Let's not talk about that for now, boy An, is he satisfied with the little chickens brought by Grandma?" Said Grandma Liu put the back basket behind her on the ground, revealing a group of bright yellow little things.

Anyang brought a bench and a bowl of well water to Grandma Liu, and said with a smile, "What did Grandma say, you watched him grow up, just like your son, so you can choose him well of."

Grandma Liu laughed out loud, pointed at Anyang's forehead and said, "Oh, you weird boy."

Looking at the twenty lively little chickens in Grandma Liu's box, An Yang smiled and frowned, really dozed off, someone brought a pillow, the help was really timely.From memory, I know that the chickens here cost two cents apiece, and twenty chickens are worth forty cents. Anyang took out forty cents from the purse hanging around his waist and stuffed it into Grandma Liu's hands.

Grandma Liu immediately turned dark, "Boy An, this is not treating Grandma as a family member."

Anyang hurriedly explained, "Grandma, it is because we are as close as family that the boy gave you this money. Brothers are clear about the accounts, and your family is not rich. I can't do things against my conscience because of the friendship between the two families, and take your money." It's cheap, and besides, you know the kid's temper, if you don't accept the money today, then I won't keep these chicks either."

Grandma Liu sighed, "Your boy has grown up, but you still have such a stubborn temper. It's fine, Grandma will just accept the money. If there is any difficulty, you must tell Grandma, and Grandma will find a way for you."

Anyang scratched his head with a smile, and sent off Grandma Liu hey-hee.Looking at the little chicken on the ground, I couldn't help but feel overjoyed.Carefully placed the chickens next to the chicken coop, fearing that the pheasants would chase them away. After waiting for a while, the pheasants did not move. Grab some small fish and shrimps, supplement yourself, and add extra meals to the chickens.

Thinking of Grandma Liu who just came to give away the chickens, Anyang learned from the memory of the original owner that the relationship between Grandma Liu’s family and his family is indeed like that of the family, and it is very good. They have been neighbors with the original owner’s house for many years. After Mammy passed away, she took good care of the original owner.Grandma Liu's man is also surnamed Liu, named Liu Qiang, and he is a good farmer in the village.Introverted and calm, not talkative, is a real person.Grandma Liu raises some chickens at home and sells some chicks in the village to subsidize her family.Grandma Liu's eldest son, Liu Ren, is the same age as Anyang, and is a good brother of the original owner.

Anyang sighed that there are still many good people in this world.The original owner, a seven-year-old child, can't live without the help of these "relatives" when he grows up to be an adult. In the future, he will definitely repay them within his ability.

Cuckoo, I was thinking about it, and when I looked up, I found that it was already dark. Anyang drove the chicken back to the chicken coop, went into the vegetable garden, took out a handful of cabbage, scalded it with water, and simply made a vinegar slip , stewed some brown rice, ate a delicious meal, then washed up and planned to go to bed early, get up early tomorrow, and go to the town to do some shopping.

Thinking about going to town today, Anyang woke up early the next day.Wash up, put on a clean piece of clothes, pour out all the copper coins from the purse, bought chickens for forty cash yesterday, counted and left 460 cash, took out [-] cash and put it under the pillow, and the rest Put it in your purse.Spread out two omelettes and eat them, put on the basket, and walk to the entrance of the village.

Arriving under the old locust tree in the village, nearly half of the people were already seated in the old ox cart. Anyang walked quickly, took out two Wen and handed it to Uncle Niu, and got on the cart.

"Boy An, why are you going to the town?"

Anyang turned his head away, and replied with a smile, "Grandma Sun, there are some seasonings missing at home, go to town and have a look."

Along the way, those middle-aged grandmas kept asking questions, which made Anyang feel a little ashamed. Although he knew before that a woman is worth [-] ducks, now he really realizes that this group of grandmas are not inferior.

After finally reaching the town, Anyang quickly got out of the car.Looking around, I followed my memory to find the restaurant where the original owner sold wild animals and delicacies. I sold the mushrooms in the basket to the restaurant. Because of the large quantity, I got fifty cents.Carrying an empty backpack, Anyang went into the general grocery store, bought some vinegar and soy sauce, and found that there was pepper in the store. He was overjoyed, and hurriedly bought some. Although white sugar was a little expensive, he always had to buy some spares.I bought a lot of seasonings here and there, and the shopkeeper smiled from ear to ear.I bought some flour and rice, not to mention, this fine flour is extremely expensive, I bought five catties, and spent 120 Wen.Scattered and scattered, a total of 180 five cash was spent, and the change was wiped out. After paying 180 cash, the purse was flattened.

Anyang put the things in the back basket, turned around and went to the cloth shop, and asked the price. The thickest cloth cost eight yuan, and a suit of ready-made clothes cost seventy yuan. The village asked Grandma Li to help the grandmother who made clothes in the village make two sets of clothes for a wage.

I went to the meat market again and bought some fatty meat and pork belly. The butcher shop owner sold it to the end, leaving some big bones and internal organs that no one wanted, and gave them to Anyang cheaply.

After Anyang bought it, he looked at the sky and saw that it was not too early. He bought three sesame seed cakes for three Wen on the street, put them in a basket, rushed to the ox cart, and wandered back home.
