Taking the sack from Jiang Huaixu's hand, Jiang Sanlang lowered his hand and straightened the sack with a flushed face. "Little sister, have you become stronger again?"
"No, Third Brother, you are still so fragile."
Jiang Sanlang looked at his youngest sister speechlessly, then looked at Jiang Yao and then at Jiang Huaixu, and gave them a wink.
Jiang Huaixu looked at Jiang Yao and smiled kindly, "Just now, cousin Yao was frightened by Fu Tuan. I have already scolded Fu Tuan. Are you still angry, cousin?"
Fu Tuan complained to Jiang Huaixu: [It's not a tomato on my back, it's you who's blaming me.]
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yao quickly waved her hands and shook her head frantically.
Seeing this, Jiang Huaixu looked at Jiang Sanlang with an innocent face.
Jiang Sanlang thought to himself that his cousin seemed to be forced into this, and he didn't know whether to say it or not. He hesitated for a while, but didn't say anything.
There were two sacks of vegetables, so the three of them could only stand there for the time being and wait for Jiang Boliang and Jiang Miao to come over after they finished shopping.
Jiang Huaixu was impatient to wait, so he took the small box from Jiang Sanlang's cloth bag and went to the spice shop alone.
Jiang Sanlang was worried at first about Jiang Huaixu always leaving him, but later he got used to it. Now he would just hand things to Jiang Huaixu and ask him to sell them for more money.
When he returned again, Jiang Huaixu not only carried a cloth bag of silver and money, but also a sack of things.
"How much?" Jiang Sanlang ran over eagerly and asked quietly with sparkling eyes.
Jiang Huaixu patted the heavy cloth bag in front of him and whispered as he walked, "Twenty thousand coins, there are seven ounces and three ounces in the box, Third Brother, do the math."
Jiang Sanlang's eyes widened with calculations, and he held Jiang Huaixu's cloth bag tightly.
Jiang Huaixu couldn't bear to watch it, so he had to take off the cloth bag and let Jiang Sanlang carry it.
When Jiang Sanlang had enough silver, he remembered that Jiang Huaixu had brought back another sack. He opened it and saw a lot of meat, both fat and lean, as well as eggs, duck eggs, and the food he had promised to buy for Sister Wei.
He carefully tied the sack again, worried that the chicken and duck eggs inside would break.
Jiang Huaixu, who was sitting on the side of the street, was looking at the things piled up in the space. She had picked up a lot of things thrown away by the villagers along the way, as well as wolf and wild boar meat, all of which had to be taken out.
I have to go to Jiuxi Mountain with my second brother.
Having made up his mind, Jiang Huaixu returned to reality and waited for the arrival of Jiang Boliang and Jiang Miao.
After waiting for an hour or two, I finally saw the two people, and the sun had already set.
"Sanlang, what's in these three sacks?" Jiang Miao asked after jumping out of the car.
"Youngest sister bought the vegetables and meat."
Jiang Miao was surprised: "So many!"
He untied the sack of vegetables and found the cabbage on top, juicy and beautiful. He didn't know how to describe it, but it looked a lot like cabbage.
"This dish is a good choice. It looks delicious." Jiang Miao said with a smile. Then he loaded the three sacks into the truck.
Jiang Boliang parked the carriage and sat down with Jiang Huaixu in a row, feeling melancholy. "How can things be so expensive? They've doubled in price."
"Dad, have you asked if the carriage and horses are OK? Can the horses be sold?"
"Of course I can. The price is much higher than a cow. I can sell it as long as I have my household registration."
"That's great, it's also income. And I'll have to ask Uncle to pay me for the vegetables I buy when I get home."
Jiang Boliang said that the little girl was good at coaxing people. He knew that the little girl took those vegetables out of the small house and did not ask for money. However, since she took them out, she must have bought them with money. Although she earned money from the people in her own village, it would be wrong not to make a penny.
After everything was decorated, only Jiang Boliang's carriage could accommodate more people, so the three of them had to squeeze together.
It was extremely tormenting for Jiang Yao. She didn't want to touch Jiang Huaixu again. If she did, she would feel like she was covered in poison that would rot her body. On the way back, she fell into deep regret, regretting that she had made a fuss about coming to the county town.
In Jiuxi Village, Zhou Mancang found Jiang Zhengmao again.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Zhengmao, my father isn't feeling well, so I came here to tell you about the wasteland."
Jiang Zhengmao wanted to make friends with the headman's family, so he asked Zhou Lizheng about his well-being. Zhou Mancang almost thought that he had forgotten the life-and-death friendship between his family and the Jiang family.
On second thought, it was somewhat related. He said gratefully, "I have to thank your young lady. After she took my father's pulse, he didn't dare to delay and called a doctor that night. He took medicine and is now feeling much better."
"She's my cousin's daughter. She's got such good medical skills thanks to a master who taught her for half a year. After that, she learned everything on her own. Tell me, I've never seen anyone so smart in all my life!"
Zhou Mancang didn't want to believe it, but it was a fact that Jiang Huaixu could diagnose pulses, so he had to nod his head repeatedly as he listened to Jiang Zhengmao's bragging.
He admired this group of people. In just two days, they had renovated the houses. Except for the collapsed walls that had not yet been rebuilt, the houses looked very neat from the outside. Compared with the group surnamed Lin in the south, the difference was huge.
Not only that, he had just seen quite a few people doing carpentry work, and it seemed that there were quite a few skilled people among this group.
Thinking of this, Zhou Mancang's attitude towards Jiang Zhengmao became a little more enthusiastic. In Jiang Zhengmao's view, Zhou Mancang gave great affirmation to Jiang Huaixu's medical skills, and he felt more and more proud.
After talking for a while, Jiang Zhengmao finally remembered to ask Zhou Mancang why he came. Zhou Mancang hurriedly said, "I came to talk to you about the wasteland. Most of the wasteland is in the northeast of the village. My father said that these houses used to be rented out for rent, but now the county government has not yet announced it, so they will not be renting out the wasteland. However, they will definitely rent out the wasteland. It's one ounce of silver per mu. Please ask each villager to collect the money as soon as possible so that you can start reclaiming the wasteland as soon as possible while it's still warm."
After hearing this, Jiang Zhengmao's expression became more serious. "Brother Zhou, I understand. I will come to visit you in person the day after tomorrow at the latest. I've been really busy these past two days and haven't been able to spare the time. Please don't blame me."
Zhou Mancang quickly stood up and said, "Of course not! We all know your situation, so why would we bother with that? Village Chief Jiang, I'll go back and tell my father about this. If you have any difficulties, please feel free to come to me!"
Jiang Zhengmao stood up and walked away for a long distance before turning around and leaving with a frown on his face.
He was just thinking with his head down when he heard Jiang Wei's cry: "Uncle, uncle, something bad has happened! There are hooligans entering the village!"
