The Pastoral Medicinal Fragrance of the Imperial Concubine

Chapter 86 The relationship between your daughter-in-law and Liu Langzhong is really good (2)
After a while, Hao Dan went to the village to call for help.

Since everyone saw the crazy grain prices yesterday, today they are all in a state of depression. Many men in the village are squatting at the entrance of the village, discussing their future with sullen faces.

"Brother Yu, what do you think we should do?" Goushengpai looked anxiously at Yu Xiuman who was squatting under the old locust tree and smoking tobacco, "Why don't we go to the city to work again?"

"Nowadays, people in the city are busy doing business, so there is no work!" The old kidnapper interjected.

"That's right, you didn't look at yesterday, the city is full of people, it takes a long time to enter the city, and you still have to work! It will take a few days to do it!" Yu Xiuman squinted her eyes, pretending to be deep , that heart is actually very anxious.

"Uncles and uncles, our family wants to build a shed. My sister said, just eat and don't pay wages. Are you willing to do it?" Hao Dan squeezed in and said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, they were all ready to move, but Yu Xiuman was moved, and waved his hand first to ask: "Didn't you pay back ten copper coins for the house last time when you repaired the house? Why is there no wages this time?"

"Yes!" Everyone echoed.

Hao Dan smiled, "Uncle, you also know that the price of food has risen now. My sister said that there are two big steamed buns for each person! Calculate according to the current price of food, how much will you get?" money?"

Hao Dan gestured with his hands, that one steamed bun was as big as the mouth of a bowl, and two of them would weigh half a catty, if not, it would be enough for the whole family for a day!

"I'm going, I'm going!" Goushengpa yelled first.

"I'm going too, I'm going too!"

Then two more people signed up.

Anyway, I can't squeeze in the city now, and I'm idle when I'm idle, so I can do it when I have food!

"I'm going too!" Soon, more and more people crowded, originally only wanted four people, but now there are more than a dozen people signed up, Hao Dan looked at those people, couldn't make up his mind all of a sudden, so he had to say, "Then You go to my house and let my sister-in-law decide who she wants, will it work?"

As soon as everyone heard this, they all responded and rushed towards Hao's house.

At the moment Leng Ping is researching how to separate the moxa velvet from the wormwood to make moxa sticks. Finally, after walking around the yard and looking at the stones, Leng Ping suddenly had an idea.

She remembered that she had seen a large mortar for making rice cakes in the south, and beat the rice cakes in it with a long mallet. If she could grind a large mortar of that kind, throw wormwood in it and smash it, and the moxa would be natural. It will be huddled into a ball, and then sifted out with a sieve or something, it should be ok!

Just do it when you think about it, Leng Ping was anxious to go out when she saw Hao Dan coming with a group of people.

"Sister, these uncles and uncles all want to work in our house!" Hao Dan wondered.

Leng Ping took a look and saw that they were all acquaintances, Yu Xiuman, Lao Guaizi, Cao Dabi, and the leftover dog, most of them helped repair the house that day.It is estimated that when Hao Dan saw that these were all people who had done work for him, he didn't know who to ask for and who to reject, so he simply called them all and let Leng Ping decide for himself.

"Uncles and uncles, this time it's just a small shed, so we don't need so many people! Just now, the aunt next door said it was already done, so you can stay, uncle!" Leng Ping pointed at the leftover dog.

The dog leftover dad hurriedly responded happily.

"I still need a mason, just two handymen!" Leng Ping said again.

After all, there are few decent masons, and there is no dispute about this point. In the end, Cao Dazi was decided, but everyone was fighting over the candidate for the small worker. Leng Ping finally waved her hand and said: "Then these two uncles Come on, the remaining uncles and uncles, don't worry, when my family builds a big house, I will definitely trouble the uncles and uncles!"

Those who were selected were overjoyed, and those who were not selected naturally had their own opinions, but they heard Leng Ping say that they would build a big house, so they could only murmur in their hearts, at least there was still hope, so they nodded gone.

"You also said that you want to build a big house. This little girl has a strong tone!" The old kidnapper was not selected, so he was naturally unconvinced. As he walked, the old kidnapper muttered in a low voice. , he laughed and said, "This little girl is too good at doing things. You said that you don't need others, and you can't do without you. She still wants to build a big house. If you don't approve the land, can she build it?"

Yu Xiuman was also dissatisfied, but she still put on a face and said, "I'm not a serious mason, and I won't do small jobs if asked!"

"Yes, yes!" The old kidnapper chuckled, and followed Yu Xiuman along the embankment to the village in a fawning manner.

Hao Ren was lying in the grass on the embankment with a book on his back. Just hearing this, he sat up, as if he was deep in thought.

Finally sent the man away, and confirmed with the leftover father about the wood needed, Leng Ping handed over the task to Hao Dan, and then hurried to the stone seller in the next village. After describing it for a long time, the man finally understood , but it takes time to polish such a large stone mortar. Leng Ping was in a hurry to use it, so she added another ten texts, and ordered the delivery in the evening.

After the Shijiu matter was settled, Leng Ping began to worry about what kind of moxa roll to use, and finally decided to use rice paper. After returning home, she went to Hao Ren's schoolbag without saying a word.

"What are you doing?" Leng Ping was flipping through the pages when she heard a sinister voice behind her. She turned her head and saw Hao Ren standing at the door holding a book, staring at Leng Ping's little hand in his schoolbag.

"I want to find some rice paper to use!" Leng Ping waved her hand generously, she was doing a serious job, even if she was caught, she would be fine.

"What are you doing?" Hao Ren stepped forward, pulled the schoolbag in front of him, raised his face, and asked again verbatim.

"Make moxa sticks!" Leng Ping didn't want to have any conflicts with this kid while she was busy working, just to satisfy his curiosity.

Hao Ren hesitated for a moment, then opened his schoolbag, carefully took out two pieces of white rice paper, and handed them to Leng Ping.

"Only two sheets?" This rice paper is only A4 size, which is enough to roll a few moxa sticks. What's more, it's the first time to do it by hand, so it will definitely waste some!

"Do you know how expensive this rice paper is?" Hao Ren said through gritted teeth.

On weekdays, when he practiced calligraphy, he would write on stones with water on his blemishes. He was only willing to use rice paper when handing in homework to his master. These two sheets cost dozens of words, and he still hates it!

"I'll pay you back later!" Leng Ping rolled her eyes, snatched Hao Ren's schoolbag without saying a word, and took out all the remaining dozen or so rice papers inside.

"No!" Hao Ren objected, and reached out to grab it, but he was not as tall as Leng Ping, and he couldn't reach the rice paper that Leng Ping held high above his head even on tiptoe.

"Give it to me, give it to me!" Hao Ren yelled loudly, his face flushed red, his little hands stretched out long, and he stood on tiptoe vigorously, his whole body was about to lie on Leng Ping's body.
