Cannon fodder also wants to live (through the book)

49 Chapter 49

After all, the villagers went to the town to prepare some things, such as meat.

Most of the meat sold in the town is dog meat, with very little fresh pork, and more chicken than dog meat.

It's not a pity to kill the chickens now. Others don't know. Anyway, the chickens fed by Zhang Caixuan basically have no eggs, and there may be one egg in four or five days.

The two went to the town on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. Compared with the last time, this time was much more lively, and the food was still in short supply. As long as they saw someone take out the food, someone would jump on it in an instant, and it would be gone soon.

I bought a rooster, but Zhang Caixuan didn't buy dog ​​meat. Anyway, I have bacon and pickled pig's feet at home. It would be nice to stew one. There are only two of them, and the usual meals are good, and they are not gluttonous.

,all in

Qin Sulin started by lighting the fire, and Zhang Caixuan cooked. After a long time, Qin Sulin also discovered that she is really good at cooking, and the dishes she makes are always better than others.But he would add some strange things into it, he believed in her very much, so far the two of them have eaten strange things, such as fungus and bitter gourd, without any problems.

On the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhang Caixuan cooked the meals and stewed a pot of dry rice in a rare way. When the lid was opened, the fragrance of the rice combined with a little burnt smell came out, making people salivate uncontrollably.

Stewed pig's feet, fried bacon, fried fungus, fried egg pancakes, and a plate of green vegetables.To say that the most unattractive thing is the plate of green vegetables. There is nothing to do about it. The ground is fine. Afterwards, the green vegetables softened when they met the water. The two sat at the table, and Qin Surin took out a The small wine bottle is the sweet-scented osmanthus brewed last year. Zhang Caixuan picked up the wine glass and asked with a smile, "What are your New Year's wishes?"

Qin Surin held the wine glass, with a serious expression on his face, he pondered for a moment and remained silent.

Zhang Caixuan couldn't help laughing, "Looking at you, it's like thinking about major events in life."

Qin Surin looked at her with soft eyes, but still didn't speak.

Zhang Caixuan touched his wine glass and said with a smile: "Anyway, Chinese New Year is celebrated every year, so there is no need to be so cautious."

Qin Surin drank silently, and said, "I'm very lucky to be with you."

Zhang Caixuan listened, her smile restrained a bit, she was also cautious, and said sincerely: "I am also very lucky to be with you."

Hearing this, Qin Sulin's eyes became softer, "Caixuan, I hope next year we can sit together for the New Year like this. There are meat, vegetables, and fungus on the table. The most important thing is to have white rice."

Zhang Caixuan glanced at the bowl of white rice with a smile, and felt better. This is because he saw that he likes to eat white rice.

In fact, Zhang Caixuan doesn't like to eat steamed buns very much, they are coarse-grained steamed buns. This was in her previous life, and she couldn't eat it once a year.

It was better in the Zhou Mansion, at least it was white flour steamed buns, without any messy grains in it, and when she returned to Qingshan Village and lived in Zhang's house, the steamed buns cut her throat at first, she was really not used to it.But when I think about it, I am very lucky to be able to eat coarse grain steamed buns. Anyway, I have to get used to it sooner or later. Steamed buns fill my stomach.

Even after marrying Qin Surin, white rice is not often made.

After Qin Surin finished speaking, he was quite happy to see her, and asked with a smile, "What about you?"

In fact, the reason why he thought about it for so long was because what he wanted most... was a child of him and her.But children born in such a year may not be well taken care of.Let's wait until the days get better.

Zhang Caixuan tilted her head and thought for a while, "I'm the same as this year, so I'm very satisfied."

The two clinked glasses again. In the bleak cold wind, the room in the small courtyard glowed with dim candlelight, making it look a little warmer. The low voices and laughter that came out from time to time were extraordinarily warm, matching the last day of the twelfth lunar month. The cold days and nights seem to be less cold.

After the new year, everyone is looking forward to the warmer weather, waiting for the snow to melt, so that they can clean up the land and plant seeds.

But God didn't seem to hear everyone's expectations. In the blink of an eye, it was the tenth day of the first lunar month, and it was still the same cold.

Even if you are not afraid of the cold and go to the field, the frozen grass is hard, like a knife to the touch.The ground is also hard, and a hoe can't dig in at all.

Even if the ground is turned over by force, the seeds will not germinate.

Fortunately, there is no more snow, and it is much safer to go to Huanxi Town than before. There are more people walking, and the road is easier to walk.If you are brave, maybe you can go to the capital to have a look.

But no one wants to go for the time being, including Zhang Caixuan.

The current capital city should also be difficult.

The people in Qingshan Village lost the freshness of years ago.Feeling lifeless, with no hope for tomorrow.If it is really impossible to plant the land in spring, then in autumn...

More people have caught a cold recently than before.Years ago, the weather was cold, and everyone was at home, and if it was impossible, they could still lie in bed.But now that spring is starting to think about planting, many people don't believe in evil, and go to the field to cut weeds. After trying for a long time, the weeds are not cut down, and the ground is not dug out, but people catch cold.

In the medical clinic in Huanxi Town, wind-cold medicinal materials have already sold for three hundred yuan a pair.And everyone knows in their hearts that if the mountain really does not thaw, people who want to gather herbs will definitely not be able to pick them up, and the price of this medicinal material will definitely increase.

Think about last year, Mrs. Sun had several fights over twenty cents a pack of medicinal materials.Now there is a package of three hundred cash, but no one is making trouble anymore, so they obediently take it and leave.

Those who have extra silver at home may even think about saving a little more.However, this is far-sighted. More people think that after a period of time when the weather gets warmer, they can plant land and collect herbs. It's all in the hand.

The weather is so cold, Zhang Caixuan didn't give up her efforts to toss in the field. You must know that she is a wasteland, and even in a good year, she can't harvest much. What's more, in the current weather, whether the seeds can be harvested is a problem.

Since she was free, she and Qin Surin simply went to the town to have a look. In any case, there must be some clues from the reactions of the people in the town and the prices.

This time the town is a little different from before. There are a lot more fabrics and furs. The materials are slippery, and there are all kinds of furs. There are all kinds of pure white fox furs, but they are relatively expensive.

The first thing Zhang Caixuan noticed was that there were more people on the street who were dressed differently from those of the farmers. They looked like stewards and servants of rich families.

There are so many stewards, most likely... from the capital.

She really didn't get it wrong, these people came from the capital, and in the days before the year, it became more and more difficult as you went to the back, and you couldn't buy suitable things with money, such as fresh meat and vegetables.

After finally watching the snow melt on the road, the people from the capital city went out of the city to the town.

When it comes to food, it has to be in the homes of these farmers.

What's more, he brought his servants to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital.There is no shortage of food for the time being, and the real big family has a special Zhuangzi to supply rice and vegetables.What was taken back last year is enough to feed this year, but the food is gone.

Therefore, these stewards still need to replace fresh meat and vegetables.

Green vegetables are impossible, no one can grow them in this kind of weather.

Qin Surin took a fancy to the pure white fur, "Uncle, how do you count?"

It's funny to say, but now many people don't ask how to sell things when they buy things, but how to calculate them.Because some people want to exchange things and don't want copper and silver.The middle-aged man in front of him, who was dressed as if he was in charge, seemed to be not short of money.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Qin Surin, his eyes fell on his pure black cloak, with a genuine smile on his face, "We want white rice, if there are two hundred catties, you can take the fur."

Zhang Caixuan quietly gave Qin Sulin a hand. Although two hundred catties of white rice is not expensive, she was crazy to spend two hundred catties for a cloak. If she had to choose, she would rather stay at home and eat white rice.

Qin Sulin squeezed her hand reassuringly but didn't say any more, and pulled her away.

Zhang Caixuan said in a low voice: "It's really not necessary, I already have a cloak, and I think it's just right to use that."

The gray one is just right, she doesn't want to be so ostentatious, no matter what time it is, such a top-quality white fox fur is not cheap, and wearing it on her body will show that she is a fat sheep.It's okay now, when the situation gets worse, wearing such a cloak may... attract thieves.

It's still good luck to recruit thieves, if you recruit the bandits' concern...why spend money to make money?

Putting herself in danger for no reason is not in line with her goal of living a low-key life.

Qin Surin pulled her hand into the cloak, squeezed it, and said in a low voice: "I will buy it for you in the future."

"Caixuan?"

A surprised woman's voice suddenly sounded from under the eaves of the shop diagonally opposite the two of them. As soon as Zhang Caixuan raised her head, she saw Madam Qian.

She was also a little surprised to suddenly see someone she thought she would never see again in her life. ,all in

Qian Momo was still following Qing He, and beside her were two stout women, and a little further away there were two more people.

Qian Momo was a little uncertain at first, Zhang Caixuan's current attire was very different from when she was at the mansion, and her spirit was also different.When she was at the mansion back then, she had lowered her eyebrows and was pleasing to the eye, submissive, covering up her outstanding appearance, without any sense of presence.

Now, although she is wearing ordinary clothes and the gray cloak on her body is also dusty and inconspicuous, but seeing her, she feels that she is in a good mood, her eyebrows and eyes are stretched, without a trace of melancholy, she seems to be living a good life .

Seeing the surprise on Zhang Caixuan's face, Qian Momo was sure it was her, and said with a smile, "Caixuan, is this Miss Biao's brother?"

Zhang Caixuan nodded, pulled Qin Sulin calmly, and said: "This is my husband, you probably know it too."

After Qian Momo looked Qin Surin up and down, she said with a smile: "Back then, the eldest son of the Qin family was extremely intelligent at a young age. I followed Madam and I heard of it occasionally."

Qin Surin's face was serious, "Mama was joking."

It was just a scene, but in the eyes of the servants of the Zhou family, apart from being Qin Shuxian's own family, the Qin family is a declining family.Because of Qin Shuxian, no one dared to tease her face to face.

Qian Momo was noncommittal, "What did you buy? Did you get it?"

Zhang Caixuan said directly: "Let's take a stroll."

Qian Momo smiled and said no more about this, "Madam asked about you a few days ago. I am worried about whether your life is going well."

Of course Zhang Caixuan didn't believe this. Mrs. Zhou Liao went to her home to pick up Qin Shuxian last time, but she didn't even give her the end of her eyes.
