hidden old spring

Chapter 43

The master walked around the screen holding a book full of words in his hand. When he saw the county master sitting in the upper hand position behind the screen, a wry smile appeared on his lips.

Passing the booklet over, the master sighed.

"I don't know if this little girl got involved accidentally or if it was an unintentional disaster."

With a smile on his face, the county master flipped through the booklet and spoke slowly while reading the words on it.

"The frontline is tight, and it's normal for you to be worried when the grain requisition reaches us. However, our Anping County is just a small county. Even if the Hu people are really interested in food, they probably won't come to our Anping County."

"You mean, this little girl is just a coincidence?"

The county master didn't say yes or no. He calmly read the booklet and then said it.

"The little girl is very pitiful by herself, and the tofu she sells is cheap and benefits the county. Let her send some tofu to the yamen, and the original price will be calculated for her."

What does it mean?Do you want to protect the little girl?
The master thought about it and felt that this was not what he meant.

This should be a further test.

We still can't tell whether this little girl is a human or a ghost, so why not sell her a flaw and let her have contact with the county government. If she is really a spy, this will also expose her.

After thinking about this, the master smiled, cupped his hands, and agreed.

So Su Changan, who had just been escorted home by his two apprentices, received an order from the county government.

The county government asked Su Changan to deliver no less than 30 boards of tofu to the county government before breakfast, lunch and dinner. The price would be settled daily, and the government government would charge as much as he delivered.

Anping County is a medium-sized county with a permanent population of more than [-] people and more than [-] subordinate villages and towns. There are more than [-] official officials in the government office plus white servants (unofficial servants).

So what the Yamen said is that you can give away as much as you want, which is really not a lie.

This order is definitely a huge one for a small workshop like Su Changan. When someone from the Yamen came to talk about this, both Yin Dan and Tong Dan were present, and they instantly became excited after hearing this.

Being associated with the Yamen not only makes it easier to make money, Su Changan's safety is also guaranteed!
The two apprentices were extremely happy, but Su Changan was happy on the outside, but couldn't help but make calculations in his heart.

The yamen said that there should be at least 30 plates of tofu per meal. With so much tofu, even if the stone mill could grind out sparks, it still wouldn't be able to grind out that many beans.

Su Changan didn't have the idea of ​​being rich and contented. Since she started the tofu business, she only wanted to make it bigger and stronger.

She knew she had to seize this opportunity, and she also knew that the bulk of the soy milk still needed to be obtained from the system.

Of course, you can't talk about these things. She arranged the silver eggs and copper eggs with a smile on her face.

"Tomorrow you go buy as many beans as you can, as well as molds for making tofu. We need these today."

It's getting late today, but if Su Changan wants it, Li Dahu can still get it for her.

Su Changan took out all her savings and fifty candies and gave them directly to Yin Dan to let him do the work. At the same time, she also added.

"This is the last candy I have."

This kind of candy seems to be very rare here, and she doesn't dare to take it out continuously, so she said this.

Yindan solemnly put the money bag and the oil paper bag wrapped with sugar into his arms, then nodded solemnly to Su Changan, who still looked pale, and immediately gave his assurance.

"Master, don't worry, my disciple will definitely do it for you!"

Su Changan smiled and nodded, without saying anything more, but quietly watched the two children leave.

After the people left, Su Changan's expression fell.So, how was she going to smuggle so much soy milk under the noses of two living people?

Su Changan found it a bit difficult, but he still had to think about it no matter how difficult it was.

She forced herself to think about this matter, trying not to think about Li Da Niu she found today.

She didn't know how Li Da Niu was found, and she didn't want to think about it.

Su Changan was beaten out of stress by Li Da Niu, and she became her psychological shadow.

Stress is not something that only occurs after years of beatings. The root of stress is fear. Su Changan was beaten for the first time. He was beaten, cursed for no reason and accompanied by punches and kicks.

Su Changan also silently warned herself to be strong, but she had never directly witnessed a violent incident and could not control her instinctive fear.

Why do those who practice fighting need to have sparring sessions?Because not everyone can resist when faced with an attack.

Su Changan was obviously one of those girls who was so well protected that she couldn't resist violence.

She knew that she had psychological problems and knew where her shortcomings were. She had worked hard to adjust herself, to forget what had happened before, and to erase the shadow of Li Da Niu from her mind.

But obviously, the results were not satisfactory.

Now she was alone in the room, with Xiao Huang nestled at her feet. When she went to open the courtyard door, she instinctively locked Xiao Huang in the room. This was a subconscious behavior. She thought that Li The big girl will hurt Xiao Huang.

Xiao Huang is a mother now, and she is carrying a baby in her belly. She doesn't want Xiao Huang to conflict with Li Da Niu.

At that time, Xiao Huang was making a lot of noise in the house, but now he is sitting quietly at her feet. It seems to know her fear and it is comforting her silently.

Su Changan didn't think about it, but tears still fell.

She reached out to touch Xiao Huang's soft fur, but found that her hands were shaking.

She was actually still afraid, and certain shadows were always following her. This was not something she could avoid without thinking about it.

Su Changan forced a smile and gave up deceiving herself. She took the initiative to face her weakness.

"It seems I should also go find a fortune teller and ask."

After muttering this sentence, the room fell into silence. After a long time, Su Changan spoke again.

"Send her to jail."

It has to be said that from a certain perspective, Su Changan can be regarded as a kind of person who is too mentally strong.

She was scared now and couldn't get out of the shadow of fear independently, but she calmly found a solution for herself.

If you can't solve the fear, then solve the person who caused her fear.

Her face is still pale, her hands and feet are a little weak, and she is even crying.

But his thoughts have steadily shifted from smuggling soy milk to how to send Li Da Niu to prison.

She skipped the idea of ​​'keeping Li Da Niu away from her' because she knew very well that Li Da Niu had caused serious harm to her. Li Da Niu had become a 'defendant' and she should be prosecuted by the law. Sanctions rather than impunity.

Su Changan didn't do this before because of fear and subconscious avoidance.

Now she was sitting here alone, equally scared, but no longer escaping.
