56 Chapter 56

There are many families in the village whose houses are just enough to live in, and brothers who live together have to build another house when they get married, so it is normal for the village to build one or two houses at a time.

More people live in a crowded room like the Zhang family. If they want to vacate a room, they have to ask Zhang Quanyun's family to move out.

What's more, there are many people in each family, and the a la carte is not enough to eat by myself.

Seeing her smiling eyebrows, Qin Sulin seemed quite happy, and said: "Caixuan, it's cold outside, you go in, you'll be home in a while, we'll have white rice in the afternoon."

When Zhang Caixuan heard his last sentence, her eyebrows arched beautifully, and she said, "Okay."

After the carriage entered the village, it went directly across the village to the west of the village. Now it is not uncommon to go to the town.Even if someone saw their carriage, no one stopped it.

After arriving home, Zhang Caixuan went to the kitchen, Qin Sulin went to the backyard to disassemble the carriage, and really stewed a pot of rice, saw the fungus on the table while eating, Zhang Caixuan thought for a while and said: "I don't know if the fat steward wants this? "

Qin Surin nodded, "Take some to try tomorrow."

Zhang Caixuan thinks that she should ask for it. Although it looks a bit ugly, people in the capital now have no food to eat, and they can't bear to eat meat and eggs every day.

The two of them finished their meal and went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes. There was a knock on the door outside.

When she saw Zhang Quanyun with a sallow complexion at the door, Zhang Caixuan had a feeling that she really came.

Zhang Quanyun was still so dilapidated, with withered and yellow hair, and looked out of spirits, "Caixuan, you..."

Zhang Caixuan didn't speak, and waited patiently for her to finish speaking, and didn't intend to invite her in.Apart from the blood relationship, the two are still strangers at all.

Zhang Quanyun hesitated for a while, "Caixuan, do you have a vacant house?"

Zhang Caixuan was not surprised, she shook her head and said, "It's gone now."

Zhang Quanyun's eyes widened, "Why? You have so many houses."

Zhang Caixuan said directly: "Everything has been planted and served."

Zhang Quanyun looked at the house opposite her, seemed a little disappointed, and said, "It's all right, I'm going back."

Seeing her walk away, Zhang Caixuan was a little angry. It is easier for men to find a house and move now, so it is easier to talk.Although the legendary uncle Zhang Caixuan had never met, just looking at Zhang Quanyun's clothes and what she heard from Wu Shi, it was obvious that she was not a responsible one.

Fortunately, she was not a difficult person, so she refused and left.

In the kitchen, Qin Surin had already packed the dishes, and when he went out, he saw her standing at the door, "Who was it?"

Zhang Caixuan said casually, "My aunt, she asked me if I had a vacant house."

He picked up the empty basket on the side and planned to pick vegetables on the opposite side.

Qin Surin was also with her and asked, "Go away?"

Zhang Caixuan nodded, "No matter who it is, I won't agree anyway."

It's not just a matter of stinginess, but it's inconvenient to live with someone.In the future, she and Qin Surin may sell vegetables every day, how can they get some unfamiliar people to live together and watch them come and go.

You can't go to the town to sneak the food home, right?

It was originally her own home, so Zhang Caixuan didn't want to be so troublesome. It was largely because of this that she insisted on building a house.

Qin Surin nodded, "I won't find anyone to live with us in the future."

Only their children can.

Thinking of the child, Qin Sulin looked at her flat belly, it is a disaster year, let's talk about it later.

The two picked two baskets of vegetables, which were more than yesterday, which was requested by the fat steward.Of course, there are relatively more rice.

The next morning when the sky was getting dark, Qin Sulin's carriage set off. When he saw Zhang Caixuan sitting beside her with a piece of cloth wrapped around her head and only her eyes were exposed, he was a little helpless, "It's so cold, don't go, isn't that fat steward?" Ordinary people, nothing will happen."

Zhang Caixuan raised the basket in Yang's hand and said, "I have to give this to him."

In that basket were her soaked fungus, which had already been mixed, and she gave it to the fat steward to try, and then sold some to him.

Qin Surin wouldn't force her to do anything, she insisted on going without him stopping, and just said: "Then you go in."

When the two arrived in the town, it was still early, and they went directly to the intersection of Luoshui Village, where a green horse-drawn carriage was parked quietly. From the outside, it was unclear whether there was anyone inside.

When they arrived in the carriage, the curtain was lifted, revealing the smiling face of the fat steward.

The round body got out of the carriage neatly, and asked with a smile, "You guys are here? Did you bring them?"

Qin Surin took out two baskets from the carriage, the fat steward was even more satisfied, and stretched out his hand to open the carriage.He smiled and said, "The white rice you want."

Qin Sulin loaded Mi into the carriage, and the fat steward smiled and said, "Are there any more tomorrow?"

The two cooperations were quite pleasant, Qin Surin nodded and said: "Yes."

The fat steward was even happier, "Then it will still be here tomorrow, and the price will still be the same, okay?"

Qin Surin agreed, seeing that the fat steward turned around and was about to leave, he hurriedly said: "Housekeeper, I have something for you to try."

Sure enough, the fat steward stopped, turned around in doubt, looked at Qin Surin holding something black on a white porcelain plate, frowned and said, "Is this something edible?"

Qin Surin took a large piece with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, saying, "It's absolutely fine."

Zhang Caixuan followed behind Qin Sulin, and said, "When we have no vegetables to eat in winter, we eat fungus."

The fat steward was dubious, reached out and put a piece into his mouth, then his eyes lit up, and he said, "It's really not poisonous?"

Qin Surin laughed, "How come? You saw me eating just now."

The fat steward immediately asked, "How many do you have?"

Zhang Caixuan took out a small cloth bag, about a catty, and said: "Here it is all, take it back and soak it in warm water for half an hour, it's a bit cold to eat mixed in this weather, you can also fry it in a pan, if you add some meat, Tastes better."

The fat steward narrowed his eyes, "What do you want to change?"

Zhang Caixuan smiled, "Take it back first, and we'll talk about it after you test that it's not poisonous."

The fat steward had a half-smile, his eyes were even smaller, he stretched out his hand to take it, and said, "Sure, since you trust me, I can also guarantee that if you take it back and the master likes it, I promise I won't treat you badly."

The fungus was naturally sold, and because a pound of dried fungus produced a lot of foam, the fat steward gave them fifty catties of white rice, and said that if there was any safe new food, he would take it.

Qin Surin would sometimes bring some extra vegetables to sell to other stewards, but the stable one was always only the fat steward.The fat steward called himself Yuan, although he didn't directly say his identity, but it was obvious that he was very extraordinary. ,all in

Half a month later, Zhang Caixuan and the others exchanged for a little more than a thousand catties of white rice.She was taken aback when she took stock, and only lamented that there are indeed many rich people in the capital.But the vegetables growing at home are almost gone, so I have to keep the ones from Guanshi Yuan's side, which will be a big deal in the long run.

Zhang Caixuan went with Qin Sulin every day, and their carriage could not completely avoid the villagers when they went to the town, basically everyone knew it.And the villagers finally accepted that there would be no harvest in the field this year, and began to study the possibility of building a greenhouse. ,all in

When I got home that day, just after eating, Hu Niuniang came, holding a handful of green vegetables, and passed them to Zhang Caixuan after entering the door, "I planted them, and they look very gratifying."

It's really good.

She didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly, "I came today to ask what the price of this vegetable is? Don't dare let us mess up the price."

Zhang Caixuan raised her eyebrows, thought for a while and said, "It's easy to exchange for ten catties of coarse grain."

Hu Niuniang slapped her thigh and stood up, almost exclaimed, and it took a while to recover her voice, "Really?"

Zhang Caixuan nodded, "If you find a decent manager, it may be higher, mainly because there are few vegetables now."

Where is the few, it is clear that they are the only family.But the price will definitely drop in the future.

Hu Niuniang got up and walked around the room twice, barely suppressing her excitement, and said: "This time you really took care of me, I remember it, I'm going back now, I'm ready to try it tomorrow."

When I walked to the door and turned around, I remembered something, "By the way, can you take me to the town tomorrow?", all in

Zhang Caixuan nodded, handed the dish back to her, and said: "Take it back, if you don't eat it yourself, it's good to exchange it for food, I don't lack this."

Hu Niuniang waved her hand, "It's for you. I'm happy to grow it, so I want to give you a taste."

Zhang Caixuan smiled and reminded, "It's worth ten catties of grain!"

Hu Niuniang had already walked into the yard, she turned around and said with a smile, "Even if it's worth a hundred catties of grain, I wouldn't be able to earn it if it weren't for you."

Zhang Caixuan shook her head with a smile.

Now in the village, the only ones who can really grow vegetables as high as a palm, besides her family, are Yang Xuan'er and Gu's family. The others are only those who bought bricks from her, including those who bought bricks from Hu Niuniang's cousin and daughter-in-law. That one, I heard it can be eaten.

As for others, such as those who use firewood to light a fire outside the house, and those who directly use mud to build a greenhouse, they are still only sprouting now, or they have sprouted long ago but they just don’t grow.Some even died because the heat was too high or too small.

Early the next morning, when Qin Sulin's carriage passed by the door of Huniu's mother's house, she got into the carriage with a basket, and there was only a handful of vegetables in it, similar to the one given to her yesterday.

Zhang Caixuan didn't ask too many questions, she was a little silent along the way, Hu Niuniang seemed a little bit excited and a little bit anxious, in short, it was very complicated.

When they arrived in the town, Niuniang Hu left without hesitation, but Zhang Caixuan didn't want to keep her. She and Qin Sulin delivered the vegetables to the intersection of Luoshui Village. There was already a carriage waiting. Not here, went to the street.The one staying here is a smart young man, the nephew of Guanshi Yuan, called Yuanyuan.

Yuan Yuan was not at all like his uncle except for his cleverness. He was thin and thin. When he saw the two of them smiling, he stepped forward to take the basket and handed him a purse.

Starting today, they have changed to cash.This is also the reason why Zhang Caixuan is willing to bring Hu Niuniang along, it's not so eye-catching.

There weren't many greens at home, and today they only brought some for Yuan Yuan. They took a leisurely stroll and bought a few eggs before setting up the carriage to go home.

Just turning up the road to Qingshan Village, I saw Hu Niuniang holding a basket in one hand and a broken sack in the other.

Qin Surin stopped the carriage, and Hu Niuniang didn't refuse, and climbed into the carriage after thanking her.Opening the curtain and seeing Zhang Caixuan inside, her brows and eyes burst into a warm smile, "Caixuan, I listened to you and specifically looked for that decent steward. I really didn't expect that I could exchange fifteen catties of coarse grain."

Zhang Caixuan smiled and said, "Auntie knows how to do business. But don't expect too much. When there are more vegetables in the future, they won't be so valuable."
