Chapter 355 Fang Tianci received sweet potatoes from the caravan
Xu Qingye touched his nose.
"It took a few steps around."
Song Yuntang took a piece of chestnut cake and put it in his mouth. After taking a bite, he instructed the people in the clinic, "It's closing time today. Everyone should go back after you finish your work. Changgen, remember to lock the door and watch the fire. Nian'er, let's go home."
After saying that, he and Xu Qingye went out first.
Song Yuntang held the hot water bottle in his hand and ate the chestnut cake while saying, "Why did you think of picking me up today?"
Xu Qingye held chestnut cake in one hand and walked side by side with Song Yuntang.
"I came back from Tang Mansion early, and since I had plenty of time, I came here."
Song Yuntang glanced in his direction, his expression was the same as usual, no different.
"I've figured out what to give Madam Yang."
Xu Qingye looked puzzled.
"What?"
She smiled mysteriously, "You'll know when the time comes."
Looking at the smile on her face, Xu Qingye's eyes were filled with doting.
When Mrs. Hu saw the young couple coming back talking and laughing, her face was full of joy.
"Qingye and Tang'er are back."
Song Yuntang walked into the yard.
"Are grandparents all right at home?"
"It's fine." Mrs. Hu looked at the two of them and said, "Grandpa and grandma are planning to go back to Lushan Village tomorrow."
Song Yuntang raised his eyebrows, "So soon? We haven't even lived here for a few days."
Mrs. Hu waved her hand and said, "We've only lived here for four or five days, that's enough. You're all busy, so I won't delay your work. It's all thanks to you that grandpa and grandma have the opportunity to live in such a nice courtyard in this lifetime."
The main reason is that I am unfamiliar with the place, unlike in the village where I have so many acquaintances. When I have nothing to do, I can walk around and chat.
It's not fun to just sit here and do nothing. The key is that I still have to take care of the children outside.
Song Yuntang pulled her.
"Okay, let Wencheng take you back tomorrow. If grandma wants to visit the county town, ask mom and dad to bring you over."
Hu smiled and nodded, "Okay."
…
The next day, Xu Wencheng harnessed the horse-drawn carriage and sent several elders of the Xu family and Hu'er back to Lushan Village.
After the two cousins from Uncle Song's side delivered the shampoo to the county town, they took the things that Fang Tianci asked them to bring to Song Yuntang to the clinic.
My eldest cousin Song Xiangming unfolded the bag.
"Tang'er, Fang Tianci said that this is what he collected according to your request. It's called sweet potato. Take a look and see if it's what you want."
Song Yuntang came forward, took a quick look and nodded, saying, "This is what I want. Where did Fang Tianci collect it from?"
"He said that a caravan of merchants going to the south to do business came to the shop and had a meal there. They happened to pass by here, so Fang Tianci asked them about this thing. These sweet potatoes were brought back by those people from the coast." Song Xiangming said.
Song Yuntang nodded. There are ports in coastal areas, and fleets sometimes bring things that are not available on the mainland.
Fang Tianci is also a smart man.
Knowing that the caravan was well-informed, he directly asked someone to help find out.
It is the right person to entrust this matter to.
She squatted down and turned it over.
"Is that all that's in the bag?"
Song Xiangming shook his head and said, "There are still some. There are probably two or three hundred kilograms on the farm."
Song Yuntang nodded, "Then keep this small half bag. As for the rest, when my cousin returns to the farm, ask someone to dig a cellar and put the sweet potatoes in the cellar first. They won't freeze easily in the winter, and can be planted in the spring of next year."
Song Xiangming responded, "Okay, I'll keep this in mind."
Song Yuntang thought about it.
"Also, my second uncle's cousin Fulai wanted to find a job. If the farm is short of people, you can go ask him."
After what happened to Second Uncle and his family due to Ma's incident, they are probably living in dire straits now.
Since he had come to ask for help before, and Song Fulai seemed to be a good person, it would be a perfect place to arrange him in if they were short of people.
It’s fine if Song Chang, the youngest son of my second uncle, lives here.
He doesn't seem like a person who knows what's good for him.
Don't cause trouble for her when you go to the farm.
Song Xiangming smiled and nodded.
"Okay, these days my sister-in-law and Fulai have been arguing every day, and my nephew is often hungry. My mother and Third Aunt can't stand it, so they take the child home when they have time to let him have a full meal. It's not bad for adults to be hungry, and the child still needs to grow."
Song Yuntang hummed, "When he goes to work on the farm, he can save a lot on buying food. The price of food in the county should have increased a lot now, right?"
The smile on Song Xiangming's face disappeared.
"The price of brown rice has increased from 10 wen per liter to 15 wen per liter, which is the same as the price of white rice. The price of white rice has now increased to 20 wen."
Fortunately, they worked on Tang'er's farm, so they could continue to buy brown rice from the farm at the price of ten cents per liter. Otherwise, with such high food prices and so many mouths to feed at home, their situation would probably not be much better than that of their second uncle's family.
"Is my father's bean sprouts still for sale?" Song Yuntang asked again.
The second cousin Song Chengren at the side shook his head and said, "It has been a while since we sold any vegetables. Recently, the vegetables in the fields have grown, and there are fewer people buying vegetables. Uncle San only delivers some to the wealthy families in town from time to time. Jinyuan has been accompanying his sister-in-law these days, and has no way to make money. His sister-in-law often gets angry with him."
Talking about this, all the cousins felt that it was inappropriate.
Liu was pregnant, and her family almost made her their idol. Before, they thought that although she seemed a little weak to others, she was still capable of making a living. But after seeing that Jinsheng was getting better and better working under Tang'er, they began to feel uncomfortable.
But she didn't want to think about it.
If she didn't act like a troublemaker in front of Tang'er, wouldn't Tang'er make arrangements for them after the baby was born?
After all, he is my brother, how can it be so easy to give him up?
As for why Jinsheng can always work beside Tang'er, it is because he has been busying around her ever since Tang'er left home.
Song Yuntang nodded.
According to the date calculation, Liu is expected to give birth this month.
But she was not very willing to go to Rongshu Village.
She thought that she would prepare a gift for her nephew and let Song Jinsheng take it back.
Say something to shut their mouths; stay out of the show so as to have peace of mind.
Otherwise, every time I go back, something unpleasant will happen.
"After you go back, ask Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao II to ask my father if he is willing to go to work on the farm next spring. If Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao II want to go, that's fine too."
"As for my eldest brother, let's talk about it after my sister-in-law gives birth. If he is willing, he can help me raise the chickens and ducks on the mountain. Now that Tu Shi is not on the farm, Uncle Qiao and Second Uncle Qiao will be busy with farm work next year. I'm afraid Aunt Miao can't take care of it alone."
Song Xiangming and Song Chengren nodded.
"become."
They were also happy that their cousin was thinking about home.
Now that she has arranged a job for Jinyuan, Liu should stop gossiping.
