Chapter 150

Autumn is pervading, the green leaves and grass are gradually turning yellow and dry, and there are not many prosperous plants and trees, but the greenness in the wheat field is not diminished. Every day, Wei Lanxiang would come and walk around, to prevent any cattle and sheep from breaking the reins from stealing food.

Early in the morning, Lu Gu and Shen Yan also followed, and the three of them entered the field separately, and when they saw the weeds in the wheat seedlings, they were uprooted, saving the weeds from deceiving the crops.

The sky today is very good, the sky is blue and high, the sun is shining down, and the autumn wind blowing is not very cold, which is quite refreshing.

Lu Gu straightened his waist, stepped from the field to the ridge with his toes avoiding the wheat seedlings and stepped on the gap, threw a handful of weeds into the bamboo basket, and went back to feed the cattle and sheep.

In the morning, Shen Xuanqing carried a few rabbits in a big bamboo basket and said that they were going to sell them in the town. In addition, they had to talk to places such as pubs and restaurants. In the future, they raised more rabbits, and they could not sell them all at random. Can sell some to restaurants.

He didn’t bring Lu Gu because he wanted to find someone to negotiate.

It just so happened that there were various jobs to be done at home, and Lu Gu didn’t follow him. The embroidered handkerchiefs would be the same when they were sold next time.

The good boy was always naughty, afraid that he would step on the wheat seedlings, so Lu Gu kept him at home to watch the gate, Shen Yaoqing went up the mountain to collect firewood, and Ji Qiuyue was the only one at home to take care of the children, so it would be better if he stayed with others.

They were not the only ones who came to the field to pull weeds. They also met Shen Shunwang and Zhou Xiangjun who were passing by the field, and after a few words, they went to their own field.

Although it was quite tiring to work, it was a good day today, neither too hot nor too cold, which made people feel physically and mentally refreshed. When Zhaoer woke up in the morning, he went into the room and hugged him for a while. The three-month-old baby is bigger than before. A little, his face was soft and white, and he kissed several times.

Zhao’er is a good-natured doll. When someone kisses him, he thinks he is playing with him, and he will laugh.

The child smiled, making the adults happy. Lu Gu was in a good mood until now, and he lowered his head to carefully clean up the weeds. Although it was autumn, the weeds were resilient and would always grow.

On the other hand, Shen Xuanqing didn’t go to the morning market after arriving in Fenggu Town. As soon as he entered the town, he shouted along the street. In autumn, the hare’s fur was thick and strong. The rabbits raised at home did not run in the wild. The six that came out were all quite fat.

Usually a fat rabbit can sell for at least 30 cents. He shouted to sell hares all the way, and someone really stopped him and asked the price.

Shen Xuanqing put the bamboo basket on the ground, picked up a fat rabbit from it, and said, “This rabbit is fat and has thick fur. If I really want it, I will give my aunt fifty cents.”

“Fifty pennies!” The woman carrying the basket raised her voice and shook her head, “This is too expensive, too expensive.”

Shen Xuanqing carried the fat rabbit in front of her, weighed the weight with his hands, and said, “Auntie, look at how fat this one is, and the fur is thick, if you buy one, you can eat meat and make it with rabbit fur. Collars or shoes, keep warm in winter.”

Rabbit fur collar.

His words made the woman who originally thought it was too expensive to look at her again, but she still picked and said, “How can this rabbit be so expensive, the usual price of thirty or forty wen, you’re good, but it costs fifty wen. ”

Shen Xuanqing said calmly: “Auntie is joking, let alone thirty wen, even a 35 wen rabbit is not fatter than this, now it is late autumn, when the rabbit’s fur is the thickest, the price will definitely be higher. Increase it, if my aunt really wants it, I won’t say a false price, how about forty-eight wen?”

“Forty wen,” the woman said, looking into the bamboo basket.

“Forty wen can’t be done. I don’t have this price. Forty-five wen, I will let my aunt take it.” Shen Xuanqing was very kind. Seeing that the other party was looking at the rabbits in the bamboo basket, he stretched out his hand and took out another one. He said, “These two cost forty-five pennies. Auntie can pick one at random.”

“Why do I see that one is fatter.” The woman said, pointing to the other gray rabbit in the basket.

“Auntie, that one is fat and expensive, so it can’t be sold for forty-five cents.” Shen Xuanqing said with a smile.

The woman who can tell him to buy a rabbit must have dozens of copper coins in her hand. The woman picked it up and asked him to take another one from the bamboo basket, trying to lower the price, but seeing that he would not let go , and finally took out forty-five cents to buy a rabbit, and finally did not waste these words.

But even if she doesn’t buy it, Shen Xuanqing doesn’t care about it, she will find the next customer.

Putting the copper plate into the purse, and putting the purse into his arms, he was in a good mood. Even if he didn’t smile, his star eyes looked gentle, and he became much more docile than the sharp silence before.

This change is not unusual, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and there is a husband to accompany him day and night.

He actually came here today to find Luo Biao, but he couldn’t say something to Lu Gu, so he had to find an excuse.

After selling two rabbits along the street, he also went to the alley next to the brothel. Speaking of which, he can really inquire at Luo Biao today. Besides the girls and Shuang’er earning money in the brothel, the wine and meat are not for the guests to eat for nothing. The men who went to the brothel said that it was better to drink flower wine, and they always accompanied one or two dishes or meat when drinking.

At the entrance of the brothel, Sister Yao accompanied her benefactor to send it out, shaking a handkerchief in her hand. Shen Xuanqing’s eyes stayed on the handkerchief for a moment, and then he turned into the alley.

I met Luo Biao in the town two days ago. Lu Gu was there at the time, and it was difficult to ask about the Li family. After returning, I was busy chopping wood with Shen Yaoqing. After two days of delay, I got a chance today.

Unfortunately, the black lacquered door was locked, and Luo Biao should be in the building.

Although they had known each other for so long, Shen Xuanqing had never entered the brothel, and the man next door happened to come out. They knew each other because of Luo Biao and had drunk together.

When Rong An saw it was him, he asked, “Second brother Shen, come to Luo Biao?”

Shen Xuanqing nodded: “Exactly.”

“He should have rested at Hongyao last night. Just in time, I want to go in the building and help you find it.” Rong An was very hearty. After drinking together, it was easy to do such a small thing.

“Thanks a lot then.” Shen Xuanqing thanked him.

Diagonally opposite is the small door of the brothel, Rong An quickly entered, and it didn’t take long to see Luo Biao hurried out with his belt on.

Luo Biao wiped his face and laughed repeatedly: “Second brother Shen, I never wanted you to come here today.”

As he spoke, he opened the door and turned to let Shen Xuanqing advance.

“Are you on duty today?” Shen Xuanqing asked smoothly.

“It’s all night work on duty. There are few people during the day, and there are not many troublemakers, so don’t worry.” Luo Biao said carelessly, letting Shen Xuanqing sit down, and he went to the small kitchen to scoop up water and wash his face first.

Shen Xuanqing put the bamboo basket on the ground and glanced at the fat rabbits that were crowded into a pile. The two that were just sold on the street were forty-five coins.

When Luo Biao was ready, he came over and asked, “Have you ever eaten, Brother Shen?”

Seeing several gray-haired fat rabbits in the bamboo basket, he praised: “Second brother Shen’s hunting skills have become more and more proficient, and the rabbits are all caught alive.”

Shen Xuanqing smiled and said, “You don’t know, I hit a few breeding rabbits before. These are the scumbags. Now that they are grown up, they will be brought to the town to sell.”

“That’s it.” Luo Biao didn’t feel embarrassed to flatter him wrongly. He picked up the pot and wanted to pour two cups of tea, but the water was cold, so he had to put down the teapot and said, “I’m going to buy some meat buns and come back. What do you want to eat?”

Shen Xuanqing said, “I’ve already eaten at home, so don’t worry about me.”

Luo Biao nodded and went out with the teapot. When he came back, he bought six big buns and filled the teapot with water.

Although he had eaten it, but could not bear the hospitality, Shen Xuanqing also took a bun to eat.

After Luo Biao devoured a steamed bun, he was not so hungry because of the food in his stomach, so he informed the Li family one by one without asking Shen Xuanqing.

Li Mingshan’s sweet wife and concubine are in the arms, and he hasn’t been to the brothel for a long time. Five or six months ago, Luo Hongsu and Lu Wen were pregnant one after another. The Li family was lively and happy for a few days, and his old lady went to the temple to make a promise To worship Buddha, she took the car to go out, gave charity along the way, and even the beggars on the road got happy money.

“Don’t say it, the life of that kid named Li is really good.” Luo Biao said and sighed, no matter what family heirs are important, he is old now, but he has never been married, and he is inevitably envious. .

Both wives and concubines were pregnant. Li Mingshan stayed at home for more than a month. Four months ago, he sneaked into the brothel, and he came every three to five.

Yao Jie, who got a little benefit from Luo Biao in the building, followed his instructions and used all her means to serve Li Mingshan, making him extremely happy, and often stayed in the building at night.

Yao Jie’er was able to work so hard, not entirely because of Luo Biao’s words. Several girls and Shuang’er made a lot of money from Li Mingshan, and the mother in the building was strict, but they all had the skills and hid some money for themselves.

Once Li Mingshan stayed in the building for three days and didn’t go home. He was brought over by the big housekeeper of the Li family, Ding Huyuan, and was directly **** and brought back. Zhengshu was suddenly kicked at the door, how could he not lose his temper, pointed at the big housekeeper and scolded him, but he was taken back.

Li Mingshan is easy to inquire about these things. Lu Wen has two children who are pregnant. It can be said that since he married, Xu felt ashamed of his identity, so he seldom went out, and it was difficult to inquire about news.

Hearing this, Shen Xuanqing guessed one or two points. According to Lu Wen’s self-esteem, if he was not greedy for wealth, he would not suppress his lofty temperament to be a concubine. Now that he is pregnant, Li Mingshan is still going Running in the brothel, thinking about it, must be uncomfortable.

He has nothing to do with Lu Wen anymore. If Lu Wen hadn’t threatened him last year, he wouldn’t have asked Luo Biao to do those things.

People are not sages, and now that Lu Wen is not happy, he feels a little happier in his heart.

“Second brother Shen, these people are really like-minded. I just asked Hongyao and the others to earn more money from the surnamed Li. He has a lot of contacts with his alcoholic friends. I went to the casino half a month ago to play. A few times, I met that kid at the casino.”

Luo Biao took a sip of tea and said with a smile: “He doesn’t know me, but I know him. We little scoundrels are called to drink on weekdays. Those old masters and young masters don’t treat us as serious people, but they don’t know if we treat them like them. It was clear to hear about that.”

“People often say that eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling is a big taboo in life. He is all involved in Li Mingshan, and it will definitely not become a climate in the future.” He put down the teacup, lowered his voice and said: “I heard that Miss Yu in the building often sees a doctor and prescribes medicine, but She didn’t want to tell what kind of illness she got, and few people in the building knew about this girl. This girl didn’t have the name of Hua Kui, but she was not bad. When I was in the building yesterday, she even asked the servant girl to ask me about Li Mingshan. Likes, they are all hard-working people, she wants to earn more money, maybe she can redeem her life in the future, so I will help.”

After Luo Biao finished speaking, he smiled.

Li Mingshan was often held and coaxed in the building. After he got married, he accepted his temperament for a period of time, telling his mother to think that he had changed his temperament, and asked him to take care of family affairs. Getting richer and richer, which kiln sister is not envious? He is just a small helper, other things are up to Miss Yu to take care of.

Shen Xuanqing also smiled, but he didn’t take it to heart. That’s how people are. Bad habits accumulate from small to big.

But it’s too early to say these, as long as he knows that Lu Wen’an is safe and doesn’t push Li Mingshan to deal with them, he doesn’t care about anything else, he has his own life.

“I’m here today, and there’s something else I want to ask you.” He put his hand on the tea bowl, preventing Luo Biao from wanting to add tea.

“Second brother Shen, just speak.” Luo Biao put down the teapot and said.

Shen Xuanqing said: “The building also cooks food. I have a lot of rabbits and chickens and ducks now, especially rabbits. If you can talk to the building, the price can be negotiated. If you want the best, then I will do it again. Find a home.”

“What do I think, don’t worry, I will be able to handle this matter.” Luo Biao agreed very simply.

Shen Xuanqing smiled and bowed his hands to thank him, and asked Luo Biao to repeatedly call him too outrageous, not treating him as a brother, and also punishing him with a cup.
