This house is in the shape of a courtyard, but there is a small house behind it!

There are five main rooms, which are very large. Only when you enter, you will know that this is a connected room. All five rooms are connected. This is the place for meetings!

The east and west wing rooms are for the personal guards, and the small house behind this "meeting room" is where Xiao Wei lives.

To be honest, this small house looks really inconspicuous!

"Do you feel wronged by living like this?" Xiao Wei was reading a book in the house, and when he looked up and saw Tie Qing coming in, and he was spitting around, he knew what he was thinking.

"No, I think it's quite simple." Tie Qing handed him a small bundle: "This is the clothes made for you at home, and you wear it when you sleep, and this one, it's dad rubbed wormwood and smoked mosquitoes for you." For the things I use, order a plate on the windowsill in the house at night, it’s good to smoke mosquitoes.”

In fact, wormwood is twisted into hemp rope, coiled up, and dried in the shade. In summer, it is used to smoke mosquitoes. It can be regarded as a natural mosquito coil.

"It's just a gift, why are you here?" Xiao Wei saw that his brother-in-law was a little excited, but after the excitement passed, he calmed down.

"I just want to ask, what do you mean? Do you have any ideas?" Tie Qing sat on Xiao Wei's kang, took a sip of water from the bowl in front of Xiao Wei, this water was drunk by Xiao Wei himself, and burned boiled water, soaked some tea leaves.

It's completely cold, and drinking it quenches your thirst very well.

"What idea!" Xiao Wei threw the things in his hand on the table: "I'm looking at the account book, there is no shortage of gold and silver in the army, but gold and silver can't be eaten, I know, many people are waiting I started to buy food to supplement the army's food and grass, but they are more concerned with my attitude!"

"Attitude?" Tie Qing's puzzled look gave Xiao Wei the urge to complain: "Yes! They all want me to support them, or to submit, but no matter how you say it, you can't joke about the lives of 30 troops! I was given half of the grain, what about the other half? There is no shortage of gold and silver in the army, so should I spend this money to buy grain? What about the supply from the court? Besides, those people secretly asked the grain merchants to raise the price, I want to spend a lot of money to buy food, how much will I have to pay!"

After all, Xiao Wei is a man from a farming family, and Xiao Wei is also very careful in the army.

"Then can't you give a memorial to the emperor?" Tie Qing remembered that he was a general, so he should have this right, right?

"Seven or eight memorials have been published, but there is no reply." Xiao Wei was also very angry, but he couldn't help it: "I know what it means to be "the sky is high and the emperor is far away."

From the very beginning, he basically submitted two memorials every month, urging for food and grass. He has no shortage of ordnance, gold and silver, but food!

Because the place is far away, it takes half a month for his memorial to come and go. He has to wait for a reply before continuing to submit the memorial, right?

But the boss just didn't answer him!

If he could rush to the capital by himself, he would have already rushed!

But he couldn't, and even his subordinates couldn't leave the post without authorization, because there was still a confrontation here.

There is no real reliable person in Beijing, so it is difficult for him to do this.

And Xiao Wei really didn't want to get involved in those messy things.

"Well, if you don't need money, I'll go." Tie Qing said, "I have a way."

"Let's hear it?" Xiao Wei felt that he had nothing to do, but his brother-in-law, whom he couldn't see through, would have it?

"That's the way. I'll dump the grain and sell it to you." Tie Qing spread his hands: "Simple, right?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Xiao Wei lost energy when he heard it: "Basically, the local grain surplus is controlled by those grain merchants. It is very expensive to transport grain to other places. The price of the local grain merchants is almost the same, I still have to pay a high price to buy grain, and I will be criticized or even framed as cronyism... I have seen this kind of thing a lot!"

If he could go to other places to buy food, he would have sent someone there long ago, and still use iron green?

"I don't want the shipping fee." Tie Qingxin said that his Myriad Creature Space can be loaded!

Not to mention millions of catties of grain, hundreds of millions of catties can hold it. He has never packed so much grain, otherwise he would be able to feed everyone in the base by himself in the last days.

"You don't want to pay for the shipping costs and let my brother live a hard life with you?" Xiao Wei rolled his eyes at him: "Come on, I will find a way for this matter, you, go wash up, and come later Eat here with me."

Tie Qing saw that he didn't intend to continue the chat, so he simply listened to him and went to wash up.

They left in the morning, and they ate something to fill their stomachs on the road at noon, and they are really hungry now.

It's all sunset time and it's time for dinner.

All meals in the army are from big pots, and Xiao Wei, as a general, is no exception.

The evening meal was delivered, a plate of stewed pork vermicelli, and two big bowls of melon and vegetable soup. As a general, Xiao Wei, the only exception was a plate of scrambled eggs with leeks. .

Then came a stack of corn pancakes.

"That's the only food you have?" Tie Qing was shocked, okay?

When he first came, although Lao Xiao’s family was also poor, he did not lack meat to eat. It was because he was hunting, and the general prey left some meat, no matter if it was pheasants or wild rabbits. The roe deer's meat is all delicious meat, the kind that is not short of oil and water.

Look at the food in front of me again, the pork stewed vermicelli, there are more vermicelli and less pork, but there is a lot of lard, which looks greasy.

The scrambled eggs with leeks look like they were fried in a big pot. It is estimated that several officials in office are all stir-fried vegetables in this pot.

Not to mention the melon and vegetable soup, this is a soup stewed directly after soaking the horned melon, and there is a piece of minced pork bone in it.

Corn pancakes are pretty good, but what's the use?

This food is not as good as theirs!

Their family ate egg-filled biscuits this morning. He taught Mrs. Xinghua to make them.

Millet porridge, salted duck eggs, and even shredded pickles are finely chopped, mixed with sesame oil, coriander, shredded green onion, and chili oil.

That dish of mustard greens is a pickle that Brother Xiao likes to eat, and it is a must for breakfast.

It is no exaggeration to say that the oil used in their pickles is more than the oil used in scrambled eggs with leeks!

"This food is not bad. If you don't come, the dish tonight is stewed salty bacon with dried potatoes." Xiao Wei waved his hand: "Sit down and eat."

At this time, Tie Qing really admired him: "I didn't expect that brother-in-law would be such a great general, why don't you eat small stoves?"

"Isn't this a small stove?" Who knew that Xiao Wei pointed at scrambled eggs with leeks: "It's rare that you are here, and they cook a dish. Although it's not very delicate, it's rare here!"

"Okay." Tie Qing sat down to eat, and he could still eat, which surprised Xiao Wei: "I thought you couldn't eat it!"

"How is it possible? I'm a poor kid who has suffered so much." Tie Qingxin said that you have never experienced the end of the world, let alone this kind of food, he has eaten worse food: "At that time, some food was good. gone."

"Well, I thought you lived so carefully at home, I thought you were from a wealthy family!" Xiao Wei had never had a serious talk with Tie Qing, and the atmosphere was good, so he said, "You really are Orion origin?"

"Yeah, I live a fine life for Xiaogeer." Tie Qing said: "Since I married Xiaogeer, I should be responsible for him, let him live comfortably, and let the second child enjoy a happy life."

In fact, he has nothing to pursue. He is full of food and drink, and has a husband who loves him, which is very good.

"It can be seen that my younger brother is a lot more squeamish at home!" This is what Xiao Wei is most satisfied with: "If there is something wrong with me, remember what I said today."

"Brother, you are well!" Tie Qing ate his meal and drank soup, and gave him a box: "Here are 360 ​​five pills, take one pill a day, remember, there are no other taboos, you should eat it , should drink, do whatever you want!"

"What kind of medicine are you? After I took it, I really feel very strong." Xiao Wei took the box, opened it, and saw that it was divided into four layers, each layer was filled with a hundred pills, only the thumb Belly-sized, it tastes sweet and sour with a hint of hawthorn and honey.

He couldn't eat the rest, but after eating, his body was indeed very comfortable.

"Exclusive secret recipe, eat it at ease." Tie Qing stretched his waist: "Where should I go to sleep?"

"You make a kang with me." Xiao Wei pointed to the back room: "I'm usually alone, and it just so happens that you're here, let's have a good talk."

"If you say that your life is not long, you will be spared, uncle, let me tell you this, with me, you will definitely not die, at least not young." Tie Qing said: "If you take good care of your life , take medicine on time, if you don’t deliberately seek death, you might live a long life!”

"If I can live past 50 years old, I will burn incense!" At this time, Xiao Wei didn't think so much, and later on his [-]th birthday, he drank several glasses of water and wine with Tie Qing.

"Don't worry, you will definitely live past the age of 50!" Tie Qing didn't have much sincerity, the eldest brother had no confidence in himself.

At this time, soldiers from outside came over and took away the empty plates and chopsticks, and someone came to bring hot water for the two to wash, and a pot of boiling water to make tea for the two, and then went down up.

During the whole process, they didn't speak.

In the room, a rope of dried wormwood that the old boss Xiao brought to Xiao Wei was lit for mosquito fumigation. After washing, the two of them lay on the kang, fanned each other with a cattail fan, and continued chatting by the way.

"I have saved a lot in the past few years. Don't worry, I have reserved a dowry money for Brother Xiao, not much, 1 taels of silver, for Brother Xiao." When Xiao Wei said this, Glancing at Tie Qing, he snorted when he found Tie Qing, as if he knew about it, he didn't do anything else.

Are you not surprised?

But when you think about Tie Qing's family fortune, it's likely to be quite a lot, and this silver is not food after all. When you are really hungry, gold and silver are useless, and food insurance is better.

"I have saved 3 taels of silver for the elders to take care of." Xiao Wei sighed, "The remaining 1 taels of silver will be enough for Brother Xi and I to marry."

In fact, he still has some loot, but he intends to leave them to Brother Xi. If he leaves earlier, Brother Xi will leave these things as a thought for Brother Xi. If he can have a child, it will be even more important. alright.

At least Brother Xi will have someone to rely on in the future.

The Tian family's family relationship is weak, this is the case in this generation at the beginning, and I dare not think about it in the future.

"Speaking of which, shouldn't it be time to arrange your marriage? When is this? After winter, you should be able to get married, right? Do you need anything special? I heard Brother Xi said that this There are rules for the dowry, but you can give some extra treasures to the emperor, do you have any?" Tie Qing turned over and asked his eldest brother: "I still have two old ginseng, it seems It’s worth a lot; there’s also a pair of Polygonum multiflorum in human form!”

These are all things in his living space. There are so many things, and he doesn't feel bad when they give them out.

"This is all treasure, don't talk about it!" Xiao Wei was so frightened that he almost sat up: "Where did you get it?"

"In the mountain, let me tell you, there are so many treasures in Xishan!" Tie Qing bullied them that they couldn't enter Xishan, so he dared to brag like this: "I also found a lake in Xishan with Beizhu in it. , hundreds of them, I dug them out, what do you want?"

"Give me the Beizhu, this thing does not have a certain status, it is usurping if you use it!" Xiao Wei rarely wiped off his sweat: "Don't pick Beizhu indiscriminately in the future."

In freshwater pearls, the North Pearl refers to the pearls produced in the northern region. It was also called "Pearl", "East Pearl" and "True Pearl" in ancient times. Because of its large particle size and strong pearl light, it has been synonymous with high-quality pearls since ancient times. On the brim of the emperor's hat is the inlaid bead.

This thing is a tribute pearl exclusive to the royal family, the bigger the more precious it is!

Dare to wear Beizhu without a reward, that is looking for death!

"Oh, fine, I'll give it to you when I get back." Tie Qing said unhappily, "I wanted to give Brother Xiao a nice bracelet."

"Use gold instead of pearls." Xiao Wei was about to be laughed at by him: "You really dare to think."

"Hey!" Tie Qing really thought so: "Then give my old mother-in-law a necklace, will you?"

"You go back and give it to brother Xi, and it's fine for brother Xi to give it to mother." Because brother Xi is the eldest son of the royal family, he can reward others.

That way you won't do anything wrong.

"Then ask him to give my husband some Beizhu as well." Tie Qing said, "I'll turn around and send him three hundred pearls, three people, one hundred pearls each."

Xiao Wei was surprised that Tieqing had so many Beizhu, Tieqing was in a good mood, this time his old mother-in-law and husband both had that pearl.

This topic just passed away. Xiao Wei did plan to propose marriage, but his plan was after winning the battle.

"Why?" Tie Qing was displeased: "You have to fight, and you have to win to get married? As far as I can see this year, it's likely that we won't be able to fight during the Chinese New Year."

"That's not necessarily true." Xiao Wei didn't think so.
