Chapter 433 434 Sending Fish

  Tang Yong saw Li Yu walking towards the bamboo forest, and said to Mrs Su, "Winter gourd, motherfucker, send the crucian carp and mullet in the bucket to Mrs. Dong's."

   Mrs Su glanced at Tang Yong reluctantly, "Head of the house, the child caught these fish early after a busy day. I want to take it to the town and sell it for a hundred and ten cents, so that I can also subsidize the family!"

Tang Yong rolled her eyes at her, "What do you know? Why don't you think about the fact that the land rent was reduced by 30% to us. How much money can we sell for 30% of the grain? With 30% of the grain at home, the children will be able to eat a full meal, and even If you can save some for the famine years, go quickly."

   Mr. Su thought about it too, and nodded happily, "The boss, just listen to you, I'll send it to Mrs. Dong's."

   Mrs Su washed some hands in the ditch, carried the fish and drove Li Yu to Zhou's house.

As soon as Li Yu walked to the door of the house, Mrs. Su came after him with a bucket, and smiled at Li Yu with a hearty smile: "Mrs. Dongjia, this is the crucian carp and mullet that my two sons touched in the river. I'll bring it for you to taste."

   Li Yu smiled, "Thank you, come in and sit for a while, I'll return the bucket to you."

   Mrs Su shook her head cautiously and said, "Mrs. Dong, I won't go in, I'll take the bucket and leave."

Seeing Li Yu coming back, Xinghua hurriedly ran over to take the bucket, Li Yu whispered, "Get a pack of brown sugar and candied fruit, and then go to the kitchen to get a piece of fatter meat, put it in the bucket, and bring it to her. go back."

   "Yes, ma'am." Xinghua carried the wooden barrel to the kitchen. When Chen Ma saw the two mullet in the barrel, each weighing two to three kilograms, she smiled and said, "This fish is good, it can be used for raising people."

  Xinghua cleaned the wooden bucket, asked Mrs. Zhang to get a piece of fat, then went to get a pack of sugar and a pack of candied fruit, and when she arrived at the gate, she returned the bucket to Mrs. Su.

   Mr. Su took the wooden barrel and saw the contents in the barrel, and was busy picking it out and returning it to Xinghua, "Mrs. Dong's family, there are only a few fish, and the child went to the river to touch it. You are too polite."

Li Yu smiled and said: "Sister Su, if you gave me fish to eat, I should return the gift to you. Besides, the vegetables in the yard are all for you and your family. If you have a little thing, don't be polite. , when you have free time, come and talk to me."

   Mrs Su nodded, standing upright and bowed to Li Yu, "Mrs. Dongjia, thank you, for giving us 30% less rent,

You don't know, the rent of the Fan family was 10% higher than that of other families. I don't think that the steward who came during the autumn harvest last year will give us a 10% increase. In the cold weather, we don't pay wages and let everyone else. Digging lotus roots in the pond,

As soon as he came, he had to pay 70% of the tenancy rent. After paying the rent, there was a little food left. From the second half of last year to now, the family is all brown rice, bran and some dry vegetables. One winter, till this spring planting,

  I was still worried about how to get through this year. Mrs. Dongjia, you and the owner are very good people. Once you come here, you will lose 30% of the rent for us. We will have enough food for this autumn harvest. "

Li Yu didn't expect that the steward sent by Chu Fu, just arrived last year, he added 10% of the rent to the family, as well as lotus roots. It seems that there is a lotus pond on the village. This royal steward is not all the same as Chu Sihai. In the royal family, there are still guys who oppress the people with unknowing conscience!

   "Sister Su, if you don't have enough food for the autumn harvest, you can come to my house to borrow it and return it to me after the autumn harvest."

   "Thank you, Mrs. Master, the weather is warm. The children went up the mountain to chop some firewood and took them to the town to sell. They bought some brown rice and went home, and added some wild vegetables and beans to fill their stomachs."

   Mrs Su raised the wooden barrel and said with a smirk, "Thank you, Mrs. Dong, you can see that I'm long-winded, I won't delay you going home."

  Li Yu nodded and watched her stride away before turning around and walking back.

Entering the yard, Mr. Wen came out of the room with his eyebrows pinched. Seeing Xinghua follow Li Yu's straw hat, he smiled and said, "What's wrong with Xinghua today? Was scolded by your wife? "

  Li Yu glanced back at her, Xinghua's eyes reddened, "Grandpa, my wife doesn't scold people! I heard Sister Su talk about the days they lived, and I remembered the days when they were at home."

  Mr. Wen smiled and said, "It turns out to be homesick! Where is Xinghua's family?"

   "Yes! You girl has never heard of your family!" Li Yu also said with a smile.

Xinghua wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled bitterly, "Grandpa, Madam, my home is in Xingfu Town, Yunzhou. After my father passed away, it was very difficult for the family. I just ate half full. After two years, my mother also left, and the family still owes a lot of money.

   My uncle and grandfather sold me and my sister. My life was good, and my wife bought me home. My sister still doesn’t know where I was sold? I don't know if the family she went to has a good wife and master? "

Mr. Wen sighed and said with relief: "Xinghua, don't worry, if you are extremely peaceful, there will be a good day, and your sister is the same, maybe she is also worried about how well you are doing! Let's go to the Taoist temple in a few days. Go to Sanqing and ask Sanqing to bless your sister to go to a good family."

   "Thank you, old man." Xinghua saluted.

   Li Yu asked with a smile, "Sir, have you been to Hengshan Town? Is there a Taoist temple nearby?"

Mr. Wen recalled cheerfully: "Yes, there is a restaurant in Hengshan Town where fish balls, steamed buns and roast chicken are delicious. Sanqingguan is less than an hour's walk to the left in Hengshan Town. The Lord is an old friend of mine and Xiaoxi has a good relationship with his grandfather.

  I wonder if the old Taoist priest is still there? However, if you want to go Xiaoyu, you can only go after the child is full-term. "

"Hey! I'm taking a few more steps now and you are all worried. You can go if I don't go! When you want to go, let Xinghua and Xiaojiba accompany you! Let's go eat fish when Yanger comes to Zhuangzi. ."

  Mr. Wen also wanted to go out for a walk, patted his palms and smiled: "Okay! It's better to hit the sun if you choose a day. We will set off for Sanqingguan in the morning tomorrow."

  Xinghua looked at Li Yu yearningly, "Madam, I want to go too!"

   Li Yu smiled and waved, "Go! Xinghua goes too, go and talk to Xiaojie again and take him with me. I'll go back to the house to sleep for half an hour, and call me later."

   "Yes, ma'am." Xinghua happily ran to find Little Jitter.

  Mr. Wen went around the back garden and walked to the stove again, when he happened to see Chen Nummy killing mullet.

  Mr. Wen smiled and said, "This mullet is really good, how would you like to eat it?"

  Mother Chen bowed her knees and said, "Grandpa, I want to cook something for the little loach to eat. This food is good for those who are injured."

  Mr. Wen smiled and said: "Well! Mammy is right, the little loach has no old disease, and eating mullet soup is good for his injury,

  If a person with an old disease eats it, some will return to the disease after two or three hours. Before stewing, ask if the person has an old disease. "

  Mr. Chen didn't expect that the old lady of the Zhou family knew all this, so she respectfully saluted, "Thank you, the old lady for teaching me."

  Mr. Wen didn't like to talk politely to people. Seeing Mammy Chen being so polite, he didn't want to say any more, so he waved his hand and turned away.
