Chapter 106 The Huangxian family walks sideways
The matter of Tan'er Cult has been confirmed, but it's time to prepare to return to the village to celebrate the New Year.
Huma didn't understand the hint in the shopkeeper's words. If he had the opportunity to become the shopkeeper of this village, he would naturally have a lot more money, food and blood.
Especially for the shopkeeper in this branch, who has a high position, lives a comfortable life, and can do everything conveniently, but he suppresses this idea in his heart.
In my early days, I actually planned to find a way to leave and remain anonymous after learning the skills of the New Year Watcher.
Now, because they know the identities of Erguotou and Miss Baijiu, a delicate balance has been formed between the three of them, so there is no need to be so anxious about leaving.
But after Hu Ma analyzed herself, she still felt that it was not a good thing to come forward too early.
After all, I have never even worshiped Tai Sui once before. Thinking about it, I actually became the shopkeeper, which makes me feel a little uneasy.
However, although the shopkeeper has the intention of leaving, it is not a matter of the past few days. What is currently in front of him is arranging for the guys to go back to celebrate the New Year.
Hu Ma had made a promise to the clerks earlier, and now that he had received instructions from the shopkeeper, he had carefully calculated the remaining money and food in the village. Except for the balance after next spring, the rest was planned to be distributed to the clerks in the village.
Not only that, Zhuangzi also slaughtered the sheep he had exchanged for not long ago. He also went to the village to order a pig, then divided the meat and asked the guys to take it with him. These days, he can bring a large piece of pork. Going back to celebrate the New Year is a very decent thing.
Logically speaking, people cannot be killed in this village. Even if they are released to celebrate the New Year, someone must guard the village.
However, the shopkeeper also said that it would save him time to stay in Zhuangzi this year.
According to the favor given by the old shopkeeper to teach him the Dharma, Hu Ma should actually stay with the old shopkeeper to celebrate the New Year. However, after what happened not long ago, Hu Ma no longer gets too close to the inner courtyard.
This distance made both the shopkeeper and Hu Ma feel much more relaxed.
Now everyone is just tacitly understanding it. All Hu Ma can do is prepare money, food and meat for them.
There is no need to worry that no one will take care of them. The old servant and the young man have already returned to the village.
It's ridiculous to say that these two people had already left before the people from Tan'er Cult came over. I think the old shopkeeper had made a decision at that time to win the blood food and not return to Zhuangzi, but he didn't expect what happened. There was an accident and they were recruited again.
“Brother Hu Ma, can we really bring so many things home?”
When Hu Ma distributed all the money and food to the guys and set a time for them to go home, not to mention how the other guys cheered, even Zhou Datong felt like he was in a dream.
The half-fan-sized pork, sheep, two pieces of cloth, and three bags of polished rice made him stare straight at him.
Not to mention, everyone still has a few small silver cakes in their arms.
"not enough."
Hu Ma took one look at it and said, "We have to rent a big car and walk back to Dayangzhai for several days. How can we carry it?"
Zhou Datong said: "I won't be tired even if I carry these things for a month."
Not only did he nod, but Zhou Liang, Zhao Zhu, and even Li Wazi, who was now as thin as skin and bones, also nodded.
It's not that they never thought about making money, returning to their hometown in fine clothes, and having a good time in front of their parents, uncles, and wives in the village, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.
Having been out for only a few months, you can bring so many things back to the village?
Faster than the calamity...
But Hu Ma knew in her heart that bringing these things back to the village would bring a beautiful scenery, but in fact they were not easy to come by.
If he hadn't had the help of reincarnations, and if he hadn't survived the hole dug by the old shopkeeper, let alone bringing these things back to the village, it would have been a question of whether all five of them could have survived.
It looks like a dream, but secretly, tuition fees have been paid.
Of course, it was also because I was in charge for the first year and didn't want to be mean to my subordinates.
Otherwise, if everyone else's money is deducted and they are all brought back to the village, the money and food will be at least three times as much.
There are a lot of good things in the library.
They often conduct accounts once a year in these divisions, and the surplus is what Zhuangzi needs.
Due to the special distribution situation, there is basically no green food, only meat, cloth, money and grain, which is already shabby.
“If you want to leave and carry it back, I don't have any problem with it.”
Thinking of this, Hu Ma smiled at Zhou Datong and said, "But I'm going to the city to rent a big car. Will you guys go?"
Zhou Datong immediately raised his hands: "Go, I'll go..."
“Today, can you finally go into the alley?”
Hearing these words, Hu's face dropped. Zhou Datong really didn't want to do anything bad this week.
But my own words...
…It seems that after refining that place, you will be free!
Suppressing his reverie, Hu Ma got up early one morning and took Zhou Datong, Liang and Zhu with him to the city. He bought some fashionable gadgets only available in the city, such as couplets and firecrackers, and then went Went to the mule and horse shop and hired a large cart for two taels of silver.
Two days after the appointment was made, the mules and horses went to the village to pick up the person, and then sent him all the way back to the village, and then the person came back by himself.
Zhou Datong and others have never had such experience in controlling money. They were dazzled by the dazzling array of new things in the market. Some bought tiger head hats to wear, and some bought them for their little girls. A colorful kite, comb and other objects.
Hu Ma just let them go. He only warned them not to rush into the alley, but he also promised them that when our brothers earn more money, he will take you to Goulan to listen to music next year!
There is a saying, the world is short of supplies, the city looks lively, and there are only a few things that can be bought.
Of course, the joy of returning home with a full load is common to both worlds.
At noon, he had a full meal at a steamed stuffed bun shop, and then Hu Ma went to the meat market and bought two cages of chickens, asking Zhou Liang and Zhao Zhu to carry them for him. Zhou Datong still felt a little strange: "Buy pigs and sheep." That's fine, why do you buy so many chickens?" "Of course I have my uses."
Without further ado, Hu Ma brought them back and put the two cages of chickens on the cart.
Before they were put away, Xiao Hongtang would send these things directly, but now Xiao Hongtang couldn't get these two cages, so Hu Ma decided to deliver them in person.
Before leaving, I thought about it and took Li Wazi with me again.
Li Wazi was excited and excited. He was useless now. Although Hu Ma took care of him, he couldn't get involved in many things. What happened now?
“Just follow, there's no danger.”
Hu Ma noticed his anxiety and said with a smile.
Li Wazi puffed up his chest and said, "Follow Brother Mazi, I won't be afraid of anything."
Of course, his face turned slightly pale, which meant he was still scared.
Once bitten by a snake, he has been afraid of well ropes for ten years. Now let alone say that the stove is useless, even if it is not useless, it will not be prosperous.
The courage has been frightened.
Hu Ma took Li Wazi and went out while it was dark. After a while, Xiao Hongtang pointed the way in front and pulled the cart to a big rock in the wilderness. Hu Ma stopped. , let Li Wazi sit aside and the two of them rest.
Gradually, the night became darker and darker, and suddenly she heard the chickens in the cage making a noise. Hu Ma raised her head and knew that the guest was coming.
"oops…"
A gust of wind blew by, and he first heard Li Wazi's shrill voice.
I saw him jumping up, twisting his body, squatting next to the cage, and said in surprise: "So many?"
Hu Ma smiled and said, "Isn't the ten promised to you?"
“The little steward is a person who pays attention to people...”
In the grass on the roadside, yellow-brown things were running back and forth quickly, making squeaking sounds, which scared the chickens in the cages and made them flutter around, making them very uneasy.
“One, two, three, two, three, one…”
Li Wazi was about to hit the cage and was counting over and over again, but he didn't know how to count and couldn't count clearly.
“enough to count.”
Hu Ma smiled and said: "But I have to tell my good neighbors that I am going back to the village to celebrate the New Year. Please don't be too aggressive during this period. Don't hurt the folks, and don't break into other people's houses."
"And there are probably no night watchmen these days, but you should also be careful. It's best not to get close to Zhuangzi. Our shopkeeper is still in Zhuangzi. If he sees you, he probably won't be as easy to talk to as me. "
“He is just a shopkeeper, what are you afraid of him doing?”
Li Wazi turned his head, cocked his head, and said proudly: "We are all friends with the Red Lantern Lady!"
"What?"
Hu Ma was shocked: "When did you get involved with that person?"
“Just a few days ago…”
Li Wazi said: "You brought a lantern and went there. My youngest son also helped the Red Lantern Lady to show the way..."
“That's it?”
Hearing this, Hu Ma was startled: "How did that kid play when he went back?"
Obviously you almost died at that time, but now you still feel that you have gained a relationship?
It's a bit funny, but the Huangxians of this family are also used to being arrogant and overbearing. They can't get along well and they will definitely not listen to themselves.
I can only remind myself.
After delivering the things, he pushed the trolley and left with Li Wazi and Xiao Hongtang. Li Wazi walked more than ten feet before he suddenly woke up with a start and had no idea what had just happened.
I just heard a crowing of chickens and dogs behind me, the sound of a chicken's neck being bitten and sizzling blood, and the sound of chicken feathers flying around. It was scary in this late night, so I hurriedly followed Hu Ma.
"Shopkeeper, we will set off the day after tomorrow. After the New Year, we will be back fifteen years ago."
When they arrived at Zhuangzi and asked Zhou Datong and the others to pack their things, Hu Ma went into the inner courtyard and reported to the old shopkeeper: "I have already ground the rice and noodles in the kitchen, and the village has also agreed to kill them later." Pig, just send me another half of the film."
"If you have any other instructions, I will make arrangements before I leave."
"there is none left."
The old shopkeeper's voice came out after a while, saying: “Just don't wait until fifteen, come back early!”
“There are still many things to do in the spring, and I want to entrust them to you one by one.”
"yes!"
Hu Ma agreed.
