   Chapter 49 49 Preparation

   Li Yu and Zhou Jia saw the shop, and it was already Shen Shimo when they came out of the shop. The two hurried back and finally returned to Xishan Village at the end of You Shimo.

Li Qing and Li Mei were standing at the door and looking forward to it. Li Qing saw the mule cart coming from a distance, and pointed to the mule cart happily, "Auntie, it's Brother Jixiang who is driving the cart, and my sister and husband are back." Li Mei saw The auspicious hanging heart finally fell back into the stomach.

   The car arrived at the door in a short while, and Li Yu jumped out of the car, smiled and said to Li Mei and Li Qing, "Auntie, Ah Qing, I'm back."

   Li Mei just wanted to speak, but Zhou Jia also got out of the car and smiled at Li Mei: "Aunt Li, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for coming back late and you are worried."

  Li Mei nodded with a smile, "It's good to come back, just to come back," after a second thought and asked, "Mr. Zhou, are those bags available for sale?"

Zhou Jia smiled and replied: "It's easy to sell, according to today's volume, those bags can be sold for three or four days at most, please bring everyone to work a little faster, and make more bags, while those who follow the trend have not yet. When we do it, let's get our name out there first."

   "Is it really that good to sell?" Li Mei looked at Li Yu, Li Yu nodded with a smile, "It's really good to sell, those people will buy three sets of large, medium and small together."

   "That's good, I've made so many at once, I'm worried to death," Li Mei looked at a few people happily, "You haven't eaten yet? Come in, I'll roll out the noodles and cook them for you."

   Li Yu quickly pushed Li Mei into the room, "Aunt, it's getting dark, Mr. Zhou is busy going home!"

   Zhou Jia smiled politely upon seeing this: "Yes, Aunt Li, I have to go back, and I will come to disturb you next time."

   Li Mei poked Li Yu and complained in a low voice, "You kid has no reason to drive away guests."

  Li Yusan smiled and watched Li Mei keep silent. Zhou Jia turned around and picked up a food box from the car and handed it to Li Qing, "Aqing, take this in."

  Li Qing bowed and took the food box, "Yes, sir."

A few people sent Zhou Jia away, turned around and closed the courtyard door, Li Mei said to Li Yu, "It's getting dark, I'll let you Aunt Li and the others go back first, don't be so late next time you go out, Go wash and wash, and I'll cook noodles for you."

   Li Yu assured with a smile: "I see, this time there is something wrong next time."

  Li Qing put down the food box and hurriedly poured out the water for Li Yu, "Sister, wash quickly, you're tired!"

  Li Yu took the handkerchief and said to Li Qing with a smile: "Fortunately, go and do your homework! Go to bed early at night."

  Li Qing nodded and went back to the house. Li Yu ate some noodles, washed up, and went back to the house with Li Mei to rest.

   After two days, Zhou Jia went to Qingshan, and met Xia Tao for a gathering at home.

   After the meal, the two went to the study, and Zhou Jia asked him with a smile, "Last time you said that we were talking in detail, what happened? Also, why don't you take the township exam next year?"

Xia Tao sat next to Zhou Jia and said in a low voice, "My uncle wrote a letter saying that these few years may not be peaceful, and he asked me to retake the test in two years. First, the third prince fell off his horse and lay unconscious on the bed. It has been more than half a month, and the empress openly said that the concubine ordered someone to do it, but the concubine did not recognize it.

Second, there are several places in Daqi suffering from drought this year. It seems to be quite serious. Everyone is worried that if the drought continues, it may affect Dayong. My uncle said that my aunt should save more water and food for emergency. need. "

After hearing this, Zhou Jia bowed to Xia Tao gratefully, "Zijing, fortunately there is still you, after grandfather left, the news in the capital was sealed by her. Last time I went to the mountain to collect medicine, she was almost sent by her. The person who came here was killed, but luckily I ran away when I met Miss Li."

Xia Tao looked at Zhou Jia and sighed, "You are too, having a father is not the same as having a father and mother. Although my father and mother are gone, I still have an uncle and aunt who are devoted to me. Your family is really unique. It's a bad debt, your father actually has two daughters-in-law, one is the grandfather, the other is the grandmother, the other lives in the country, and the other lives in the capital, and they are both married by the matchmaker, what did your grandfather and your grandmother do in the first place?"

Zhou Jia leaned on the back of the chair and smiled bitterly: "I don't know the grievances and grievances of the previous generation, since my mother left, I vowed never to return to the Zhou family in the capital, no matter how they argue with me. It doesn't matter."

"You're right if you don't go back. As far as the trash in your family is concerned, I don't think the Zhou family in the capital will survive for a few years. My uncle said that the methods in the back house are even more dangerous than the court," Xia Tao said as he embraced Staying at Zhou Jia, "To be honest, are you interested in that girl Li?"

"You jumped too far!" Zhou Jia patted Xia Tao with a blushing face, "Don't talk nonsense, I just admire her perseverance," she said while pushing Xia Tao out. , "You're all full of food and drink, so why don't you leave quickly."

  Xia Tao turned back and pointed at Zhou Jia, and laughed loudly: "Haha... Our little Xier Hongluan star has moved."

"Fuck you," Zhou Jia pushed Xia Tao out, and the two came out of the study quarreling. After Zhou Jia sent Xia Tao away, he wanted to tell Li Yu about the grain storage as soon as possible. He went out to buy a few bundles of sugar cane and brought them with him. With auspiciousness, he took the cloth and tung oil back to Xishan Village to Li Yu's house.

Zhou Jia asked Jixiang to unload the goods, called Li Yu aside, and whispered to her: "Miss Li, I got a piece of news that there are several places in Daqi suffering from severe drought, and if it continues, it may affect Dayong. You look at saving more water. Grain for emergencies, you just need to know about this, don’t make it public, and if you hire a few more people to make bags, I’ve already asked Zhaocai to pull a few carts to Qingzhou House.”

  Li Yu replied gratefully: "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I know what I have in mind, and the custom-made bag is ready, you can take it with you too!"

   Zhou Jia glanced at Li Yu and nodded with a smile, "Okay, the tea oil has already been sold out and the doubanjiang is coming soon. I'll settle the bill with you when I come next time."

Li Yu nodded, took out the customized bag from the wing and put it on the car, and sent Zhou Jia back to the courtyard. Seeing the sugar cane under the eaves, Li Yu thought that Zhou Jia was grateful for her life-saving grace, so he did it. I didn't take these things to heart. I was worried that the drought in Daqi might spread to this side.

   Li Yu secretly planned in his mind what to do to prepare for the possible disaster. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a clue. He thought: I'd better hire someone first.

  Li Yu went to the wing, called Li Mei out, and said to her, "Auntie, go to the village to find a dozen more women who are not too much to talk about and do their duty. We have to hurry up."

Li Mei went through it in her mind, and the women she had contacted said to Li Yu, "Aunt Chen's house, where I bought rice last time, and your sister-in-law of Aunt Li,...they don't talk much, but they are neat and tidy. Why don't I go to some of their houses first?"

   "Okay, let's go!"

Li Mei took off her apron and went to the village to recruit people. Li Yu went to the wheat field and looked at the cisterns. Seeing that the water in the ponds had just covered the bottom of the ponds, Li Yu thought to herself. People fetch water and fill it up before planting food.
