The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 205

After the Pearl Lane House was purchased, because the family was not moving, they just bought a residence in Jixing Town, so that Lu Gu and the others could have a place to eat and live. Never been sloppy.

Not to mention the liveliness of the housewarming day, several tables were set up in the front yard. Their family, together with Shen Shunde, Shen Shunwang, and Shen Xuanqing, several aunts and uncles came over. Naturally, the Yang family was no exception. Da Chen, who grew up together since childhood, also came to join in the fun, and Luo Biao did not fall either.

Shen Xuanqing felt that as soon as he left, only Lu Gu and the children were left in the house, and he was a little worried. Even if there were dogs at night, even the good boys were pulled over by mule carts.

When I got into the mule cart from my hometown, the good boy was not used to sitting, so he jumped off the cart as soon as he picked it up, and let it run. Anyway, I used to run in the mountains before. Woolen cloth.

Jixing Town was far away, and Lu Gu also felt sorry for the good boy. Before halfway, the good boy who was panting with his tongue stuck out got on the scooter, took out the bamboo tube and poured the water into the palm of his hand to let the dog drink.

The good boy who was still resisting the scooter, after drinking water and lying down in the car, seemed to feel so comfortable, so he stopped jumping down, sticking out his long tongue and leaning to one side.

After the others went back, there were only three people in the town, Lu Gu. He was new to the town, so he slowly explored the people and things nearby.

On the fifth day of moving in, early in the morning, the sky was dark blue, Shen Xuanqing woke up, and had to rush the morning market to open the shop door, he had to kill a few rabbits in advance.

He was washing in the front yard, and Lu Gu came out after putting on his clothes, but the child hadn’t woken up yet.

“The bamboo shoots are gone. If I encounter a vegetable seller on the way, I will buy two and come back. You can just come and get them. You don’t have to go to Zaoji.”

“Well, I see.” Lu Gu agreed as he walked to the kitchen, where the water tank was placed.

There is a well in the backyard, which is more convenient than in the hometown. You don’t have to run too much to fetch water. When Shen Xuanqing is away, if Linger sleeps, he can fill the tank with a few more trips.

The tandoor in front of the kitchen has been lit, and there is a clay pot for boiling water. He looked into the pot and saw that two white eggs were being boiled in it. If it is getting hot today, the steamed buns can be eaten cold, and there is no need to get up early. Move the cauldron again.

The kitchen is full of pots, bowls and pots, and red paper is pressed in the rice vat and noodle vat. Wei Lanxiang pressed it when they moved in, saying that they would take out the rice noodles after eating the vat, and the jars of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were neatly arranged. , the firewood is pulled from the hometown, two whole cars, enough for them to use for a while, no need to buy any more.

After washing up, Lu Gu entered the room and took a look. Brother Ling was still asleep, and he didn’t wake up. He quietly closed the door and left, and sat with Shen Xuanqing on the stone table in the courtyard, smashing eggs and eating steamed buns.

“There are still a dozen or so rabbits. I’ll go home when they’re sold out. I’ll pull two baskets of eggs, duck and eggs, save some to eat, and take the rest to the shop to sell.”

As Shen Xuanqing was talking, the good boy who had just woken up came out of the main room, stood in the courtyard, and shook his hair. After shaking his head, he seemed to be refreshed. When he saw the two of them eating, he whimpered and went over here. Walk.

Their dogs don’t sleep in kennels very much these days. They live under the eaves like people. The sacks used for sleeping have been used for a long time. Lu Gu will take out the straw and wheat straw and replace them with clean ones, and wash them by the river after a while. The skin of the sack is dried in the sun and used for the dog. After all, the sack is sometimes placed in the main room during the day, so it should not smell too bad.

As soon as Lu Gu broke half of the buns for the good boy, he heard Linger cry in the room, and quickly put down the food in his hand.

With him taking care of the children, Shen Xuanqing didn’t have to worry too much. After breakfast, he went to the backyard to pull ten rabbits and a few chickens and ducks on a trolley, and left from the back alley.

I don’t live at the butcher’s shop at night, no one is worried about it, and it’s not too far away, and the livestock are kept in the house.

It’s not that I didn’t think about putting the good boy in the shop, but before Lu Gu moved in, Shen Xuanqing lived alone in the town, and the dog of a family in Willow Alley was groped and he couldn’t find it no matter how he looked. , I later heard that it was stolen by a few idlers, slaughtered and boiled the pot of dog meat.

These days, there are people stealing chickens and dogs everywhere. It’s better to be on guard. During the day, it’s fine. When Lu Gu took his child to the butcher’s shop to find him, he was a good boy. As soon as night fell, he wouldn’t let the dog go out, and only guarded the home in the house, with an alert.

“I’m leaving, you remember to close the door.” Shen Xuanqing got the scooter and shouted ahead.

“Understood, you can go.” Lu Gu urinated in the courtyard with Ling Geer in his arms. He got up and went to the backyard to close the closed back door with the latch.

As soon as the child woke up, he couldn’t sit for a lot of things. He coaxed Brother Ling to play for a while, gave him milk fruit, and remembered that he had not cleaned and sprinkled, so he pulled the wooden cradle to the main room, let the child sit in it, and brought a small rattle. With the mud pig and mud dog, let Linger play where he can see, and if he bites these playthings, he can take it out of his mouth.

The door opened wide, and Lu Gu quickly swept the floor in the house, and then came out to sweep the main room, fearing that the child would be choked by the dust, his hands and feet were very light.

As for the front and back yard, before he finished cleaning the main room, Linger threw the rattle in his hand and stretched out his arms for him to hug.

Only the three of them lived in the house, and they were not sloppy. At least the front yard was not dirty, and there were at most a few persimmon leaves on the ground. He didn’t need to be busy in the back yard. Shen Xuanqing would clean it when he had time.

The ground couldn’t be swept. He held the child in one hand, and dusted the tables, chairs and benches with a feather duster in the other. He swept the dust every day. His hands were light, and there was not much dust to dust at all.

Just after putting down the feather duster, the good boy who was not full after eating half a steamed bun stood by the stone table and whined at him, making a look of grievance.

On the stone table, there was still half of the steamed bun that Lu Gu had not finished eating just now.

The last time he and Huanger ate meat together and was beaten by Shen Xuanqing. This time he came to town because he was afraid of stealing the dog’s medicine. He was taught not to eat food from outsiders. That’s it, so far it doesn’t move anything given by others except for the steamed bread bones that their family members poured into the dog food bowl or thrown on the ground.

“Come on here.” Lu Gu laughed. He wasn’t hungry for a while, so he gave the half of the stone table to the good boy, and went to the kitchen to get him another steamed bun.

The sun had already come out, he had nothing to do at home, he simply carried the child with his back pocket, locked the courtyard door and went to the shop, with the good boy by the side, not too far away.

The surname of the east neighbor is Liu, and there are three generations of grandparents and grandchildren. There are seven or eight people in size, and the house similar to them seems crowded.

“Auntie going to buy food?” Lu Gu asked with a smile when he saw Madam Liu carrying a vegetable basket.

He is no longer as timid and cowardly as he used to be.

“Yes, are you going to the shop?” Mrs. Liu has the problem of gossiping and she doesn’t dare to let her know anything. She can’t hide her words at all. The old man has scolded her for this matter, but she is not bad. , see who can say two words.

She added, “Do you still have rabbits? If you have, keep two for me. In a few days, my mother-in-law’s old sister-in-law will be celebrating her birthday. I’ll bring them over to get some meat.”

“Yes, I’ll keep it for you.” Lu Gu agreed with a smile.

“Okay, I’ll go get it then, you’re busy, I’ll go first.” Mrs. Liu agreed, she was busy shopping for food, and she had to bring her little grandson when she came back, so she was in a hurry.

The entrance of the alley is on the east, and Lu Gu walks eastward. There is a teahouse in the house next door to the west. There is also a storyteller. Shen Xuanqing said that he had no time to turn around and took him to listen to the book.

“Sister Wang.” As he walked all the way, he saw several families in front of him greeted each other, and he lived there for a long time, but he should not be familiar with it.

The houses in Pearl Lane are expensive, and people who don’t have a little money can’t afford them. Most of them have businesses.

When Lu Gu first came here, because he didn’t know what his neighbors were like, he was still a little uneasy. In the past few days, he didn’t say anything in private, and most of them were friendly on the face, and with Shen Xuanqing in front of him, he gradually became more at ease.

He didn’t think much about it. One was that Shen Xuanqing was much taller and stronger than ordinary men, and he was a butcher who could slaughter pigs and sheep. Even if he was a newcomer, most people would not easily provoke bullying. Kind, not bad looking, and cleanly dressed, at least at first glance, it makes people feel comfortable with each other.

The little people are busy earning money to make a living, how can there be so many idlers and people quarreling and deliberately embarrassing.

The good boy ran out a few steps away, then stopped and waited for him, Lu Gu walked out of the alley, everything on the street came into view, everyone selling steamed buns and biscuits were shouting, there were also soup noodle and wonton stalls, and the shops were all open. The taste was mixed, and the hawker who carried the burden and sold vegetables and fruits along the street passed by him.

It was so lively in the morning, completely different from the village.

When he saw the woman and husband who were selling eggs and ducks with baskets, he remembered the days when he and Shen Xuanqing were in Fenggu Town, and a slight smile appeared on his eyebrows.

Those who are afraid of dogs see the good boy, and avoid it from a distance. The good boy is smart and knows that he is outside. He walks by Lu Gu’s legs and doesn’t run around. Shen Xuanqing taught him, but sometimes Lu Gu feels a little bit different. In the same way, I always feel that their good boy is protecting the master. With a dog by his side, he is not so uneasy when he carries the child on the street where there are many people and is relatively unfamiliar.

When he walked to the street, he saw the shop selling pen and paper inkstones open, and he looked in subconsciously. Every time he passed by, he thought, he will come here to buy pen and paper books for Lingge in the future. It is so close and convenient. on.

Xixing Street was equally lively. Before reaching the butcher’s shop, he saw several people at the door.

Shen Xuanqing untied the two slaughtered rabbits from the wooden frame, and the two women who wanted the rabbit meat picked them up again, and finally took the one that they felt was big. Will vary too much, too big or too small for them to keep.

There was another woman who wanted a whole live rabbit, and Lu Gu just happened to come over. Shen Xuanqing went to the back to get it, and he watched from the front.

“Fat rabbits, chickens and ducks, come and see.”

When someone passed by the door and turned his head to look at it, he shouted a few words, so that people would know what it was for sale, and he was also soliciting.

Today’s business is not bad. After a busy morning of shopping, I sold six rabbits and two old ducks.

There was a duck buyer who asked him to help slaughter and pluck the hair. He was not busy at the time. Shen Xuanqing did not refuse and helped to slaughter it. , said: “I haven’t eaten meat for the past two days. I took advantage of the hot water in the pot to kill a chicken. I stewed it in the afternoon and I went back to eat it. The soup is not easy to mention.”

“Okay.” Lu Gu nodded and agreed. There were few people on the street. He was sitting and resting. When he inadvertently raised his head, he saw a slightly familiar figure walking on the street. He thought for a while before he remembered that How could the woman holding three pieces of cloth look like Li Wanyun.

He hugged the child and hurriedly got up, went to the door to see, Li Wanyun followed an eleven-year-old boy, the more he looked, the more he looked like, afraid that people would walk away, and tentatively shouted: “Wanyun.”

The well-dressed woman in front turned her head back, her face filled with doubt and tension, and she suddenly relaxed and happy when she saw that it was Lu Gu.

“Gu Zi, why are you here?” Li Wanyun walked back quickly and asked hesitantly after seeing Brother Ling, “This is?”

“My son, Linger.” Seeing that she was no longer as thin and pitiful as she used to be, Lu Gu was a little fatter, and her clothes were not even patched, clean, and even had two hairpins in her hair. happy for her.
