Chapter 63
August 28

It is advisable to travel.

The weather is still as usual, bright and early.

The sun has exposed half of the body, and the light shines on the earth through the clouds.

At the dinner table, brother drank porridge slowly.

Qingqing wiped the corners of her mouth clean, and asked suspiciously, "Brother is so slow today~"

Song Huan caught a glimpse of brother's little porridge left, and laughed, "Maybe he has no appetite."

Hearing Song Huan's laugh, Ah Di hurriedly ate the last mouthful of porridge left in the bowl.

Qingqing looked at brother whose speed had suddenly increased again, feeling puzzled in her heart, her eyes moved to brother's stomach and frowned.

Brother is not feeling well?

Only when Qingqing is sick will she lose her appetite, other times she has a good appetite...

After Ah Di dried his mouth, Song Huan got up and took Qingqing's bag in his hand, "Let's go, take your things and go to school."

Brother obediently ran into the room and put on the bag.

Fu Yuanzhi also came out together.

Song Huan looked at Fu Yuanzhi, "Aren't you in a hurry?"

Fu Yuanzhi shook his head, "It's not too late."

Song Huan nodded, "Then let's send brother to school together..."

Brother's eyes lit up, and he looked at Fu Yuanzhi expectantly.

After seeing Fu Yuanzhi's agreement, Brother jumped up and down to hold Qingqing's hand, with a cheerful voice, "Qingqing, let's go to school together!"

Qingqing looked at the brother who was suddenly happy again, and replied sweetly, "Okay!"

The two of them were like two happy little squirrels, jumping out to the yard, turning their tails and waiting for the two big squirrels behind them.

Along the way, the two little squirrels were happy in front, and the two big squirrels were behind.

From time to time, my younger brother would look back at his elder brother and elder sister.

Bright and warm light hit the two of them, emitting a halo like fluff.

They both have outstanding appearances, one is tall and straight, the other is slim, talented and beautiful, as if they were created in heaven.

A thought ran through his mind like lightning, but Ah Di missed it all at once.

Scratching his head, doubts flickered in his eyes.

Although he didn't catch it for a while, the trace of the lightning strike was still there, and he would always slowly find the answer along the trace.

Song Huan and Fu Yuanzhi returned to the courtyard, and the two began to eat court food.

After eating, Song Huan took out the few things he had prepared, and put the two dishes in small earthenware pots, which was convenient for hot dishes.The outside is also well wrapped with a layer of oil paper, lest the oil leak out and stain the cage and the things in the cage, it will be bad.

Fu Yuanzhi took the healthy one and put it in the cage.

Song Huan saw that Fu Yuanzhi had packed almost everything, then went to get the hoe, hatchet and bamboo basket, and the two left the yard in silence.

There was no words all the way, and Fu Yuanzhi broke the silence when they left the city gate until the two of them were about to part and leave.

His eyes seemed to be glued to Song Huan's body, and his whole body exuded an abandoned puppy, his voice was slightly low, "This trip will last for several months, you and brother should take good care of yourself."

Song Huan's eyes dodged a little, but he didn't look at Fu Yuanzhi, and nodded, "You also take care of yourself, pay attention to rest, and combine work and rest."

Song Huan thought for a while and then continued, "If you need anything, you can send a letter back."

Fu Yuanzhi nodded obediently, "You too, don't take care of things alone, I'm always here."

The two parted, and Fu Yuanzhi didn't leave until Song Huan disappeared.

Song Huan quickly climbed up to the tall stone mountain covered with moss in the bamboo forest.

Looking at the people below who were drifting away towards Fucheng, Song Huan jumped down again and walked slowly into the deep forest step by step.

Everything in the world, due to fate, cannot be separated from the word fate.

Meeting is fate.

Parting is fate.

The fate comes to meet, and the fate separates.

Moreover, they are not considered to be separated, but only temporarily separated.

The scorching summer is fading away, and the winter is coming.

Jiazi month, Bingwu day

the second day of the winter month
Auspicious: Destroy houses, cure diseases, do not take other things, destroy buildings.

Taboo: Everything is not appropriate.

Don't take other things, divide what is appropriate and avoid.

Should be: neither good nor bad

The taboo is: you should not do anything except what is specifically mentioned.

Bad wall: demolition of the wall.

Everything is inappropriate: There are also appropriate and taboo.

"Advisable: everything is inappropriate": It means that there is no special thing to do on this day.Ominous or not, Ping.

"Ji: All things are inappropriate": It means that doing things on this day is taboo and fierce.

At a roadside stall, an old Taoist was counting the days of a middle-aged man and analyzing the meaning.

Generally speaking, today is not suitable for doing anything.

Song Huan passed by and listened.

Although she is not very superstitious, she is inexplicably uneasy.

This unease actually started in August.

When she passed the rice shop and saw that the price on it had changed from the original six cents a catty to ten cents a catty, she had a guess.

At the beginning of August, they hadn't moved out yet.

The big guys in Darongshu Village are cutting rice in full swing.

At this time, a few people suddenly came from the village, wearing commoner clothes, although they may not be very rich, but they are not enough to need to be patched.

He is tall and strong, and his words and deeds are not timid.

This is of course not the point, the point is that these people came to buy food.

Yes, it is normal to harvest and sell rice, but it is very abnormal for them to harvest rice at a price that is two cents higher than in previous years.

When the weather is good and the weather is good, grain has been collected at the price of two cents per catty for several years. Why did it increase by two cents this year?
It is even cheaper than the price of white rice sold in the town.

The people who came to harvest the rice were not locals, and they could tell the difference by their strong local accent.

The big guys are not stupid, there must be something wrong with it.

Sure enough, it finally appeared after three months.

Song Huan has been here for three years, and there is basically no fluctuation in food prices. There are only slight differences due to differences in local consumption levels and quality, and the gap is not too big.

Just like Taiping town is four coins a catty, and the county is six coins a catty. The difference in price is actually the difference in quality.

The white rice in the town is sieved directly after pounding the rice, and there will be broken rice and scattered rice husks.

It's different in the town, it's all white rice and whole, there is no such defective broken rice.

The two cannot be compared together, because they are not at the same level at all.

In the rice shop, there are stacks of rice bags, and the price board of each category has changed, and basically it has increased by a few pennies.

Song Huan has had the habit of hoarding grain over the years, but she will not hoard it all at once, rice is prone to worms, and although putting star anise can be delayed, there will always be some that are not well preserved.

Song Huan was also preparing to buy food today, so he noticed the change.

Song Huan's original plan to buy only twenty catties will be changed.

According to the dosage of myself and brother, about [-] catties per month.

Except for porridge in the morning, I basically eat white rice at other times.

There are still about ninety catties left before.

If the situation is as she imagined, at least the food at home must be stored until August next year, which is the time of the autumn harvest again, so as to ensure that they will not starve to death.

Ninety catties is enough for him and brother to eat for another three months, and it will only be January next year.

And she has to add one more person. Fu Yuanzhi doesn't know what the situation is, so she has to prepare in advance.

As the saying goes, if you have a lot of food in hand, you don't panic.

Song Huan roughly estimated that he didn't bring that much silver with him, so he turned around and went home to take ten taels of silver.
