A Happy Farmhouse: After becoming the group's favorite, the whole family rises
Chapter 178 Roar when seeing injustice on the road
Third Uncle came over to check on Mr. Zhao's injury and said that the bones were fine, only his tendons were stretched and the flesh was injured.
But even so, Third Grandpa still advised Grandpa Zhao to rest for a while and not walk around.
As for the medicine for wounds, Third Uncle only had two sets left, so after using them, I had to go to the county town to buy more.
So, after taking those two doses of medicine, Mr. Zhao felt that he had recovered well, so he wanted Zhao Xiaoshu to go to the county town to buy two more doses to take.
He is old, and it is difficult for him to recover from injuries caused by falls. In addition, it will take a hundred days for his broken bones to heal. I am afraid he will not be able to move around during this period.
So, the task of going to the county town to get medicine fell on Zhao Xiaoshu.
In his spare time, Zhao Xiaoshu heard Mu Tou muttering that Tian Danian would take a bus to the county town the next day, so Zhao Xiaoshu came up with the idea of hitchhiking.
"Okay! Let him eat early tomorrow! I'll call him when we leave!"
"Okay, I'll go tell him right away!" Mu Tou ran out happily to tell Zhao Xiaoshu the news.
These two people are of similar age and get along very well.
One envies the other because he is a scholar, speaks eloquently, and does things rationally and moderately; one envies the other because he is innocent and lively, has a father and a mother, and is smart and clever.
Most things in the world are like this, especially two people who can become friends. They either have similar interests and temperaments, or they complement each other and provide spiritual sustenance to each other.
This time, Tian Danian went to the county town just in time for the second day of the second lunar month.
The fresh meat at home has been eaten up a long time ago, so I have to buy some back, as well as some big bones, a few pig's trotters and a big pig's head, so that my family can have a good meal.
In Tianjia Village, it is widely said that February 2nd is a big festival. There is a saying since ancient times that "On February 2nd, the dragon raises its head, and you can eat pig's trotters and everything else."
In order to suit the occasion, Tian Danian still wanted to buy some pig's trotters, pig's heads and other things.
Wang's cooking skills are pretty good, especially her braised pig's trotters, which are soft and tasty. They tremble when you pick them up gently, and the meat and bones separate directly in one bite. They are very fragrant.
Early the next morning, Tian Danian called Zhao Xiaoshu, and brought Shitou Xiaochun and Hanhan, and they set off in a horse-drawn carriage.
As for Mu Tou, who had always wanted to join in the fun, he was ruthlessly rejected again.
Mu Tou felt aggrieved. His elder brother, second sister and even his youngest sister had gone out with their father countless times, but he had never been out once. His father was too partial.
Before reaching the county gate, Tian Danian saw the scene ahead from afar.
Among the people queuing to enter the county town, there were more and more refugees, more than double the number before the Chinese New Year.
The difference between refugees and locals is very obvious. Ninety-nine percent of those who are pale and skinny, wearing tattered clothes and carrying a rag bag on their backs are refugees.
Even the refugees who were pushing carts or driving horse-drawn or donkey-drawn carts looked tired and had no energy at all.
Once they entered the county town, Zhao Xiaoshu had to separate from the Tian family.
Tian Danian knew that Zhao Xiaoshu was going to get medicine for Old Man Zhao, so he gave him a few instructions and agreed on a place to wait for the car. Then Tian Danian cracked the whip and the carriage headed towards the east of the city.
When she came, Wang asked us to stock up more condiments like oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar at home. A lot of dishes are cooked during the Chinese New Year and a lot of food is used up, so it is better to stock up some to have some peace of mind.
Moreover, they had to go to the butcher's shop to buy meat and to the grain shop to inquire about the price of grain. The father and his two sons simply split up into three groups and proceeded separately.
Tian Danian drove the cart to the butcher's stall to buy meat; Shitou and Hanhan accompanied him to the grocery store to buy condiments; as for Tian Xiaochun, he was assigned to go to the grain store to inquire about grain prices.
Tian Danian was relieved about his daughter going out alone. With his daughter's skills, she would be invincible in Pinglin County. Even if there were those foolish enough to provoke her, they would probably be the ones who would suffer.
If Tian Xiaoman came along, it would be a different story. Tian Danian was worried about his little girl running around outside alone.
After they separated, Tian Xiaochun went straight to the grain shop.
The first place she went to was the grain shop where Shitou had worked before, because the shop had been looted by refugees years ago and a lot of grain was stolen, and even two of the young men were seriously injured. However, the shop was now open for business again, and the price of grain had increased significantly.
In previous years, a pound of millet cost eight cents, but now the price has risen to forty-eight cents.
Even so, there is still a purchase limit, and each person cannot purchase more than ten kilograms.
The same is true for other food items, and the situation is quite tense.
Tian Xiaochun went to two other grain shops one after another, and the prices of grain were basically the same.
At this moment, she was quite grateful that her family had stockpiled enough food. If she came to buy it now, she was afraid that with the same amount of silver, she would not be able to buy as much food as before.
She came out of the last grain shop and turned into a small alley, but suddenly heard a cry for help from the alley.
This voice - seems a little familiar.
"You little bastard! Why don't you let go? Do you really want to have a taste of the knife in my hand? Be careful, the white knife goes in, the red knife comes out, and your life will be over!"
"You are committing robbery! Robbery is against the laws of Dai Viet. Be careful or I will report you to the authorities and punish you with exile."
"Hey! Brothers, I didn't expect this young man to start arguing with me! The laws of Vietnam? I know them better than you do. After all, I have been in and out of the county jail several times. Why don't you learn your business and check your pockets? I don't believe that I have no money left."
Tian Xiaochun tilted his ear and listened. The more he listened, the more he felt that the voice was extremely familiar.
When they came out, their mother told them not to meddle in other people's business on the road. These days, life is much harder than before and it is not something they can handle.
Before he heard the voice speaking, Tian Xiaochun didn't want to meddle in other people's business.
After all, it is better to have less trouble than more, but after hearing that familiar voice, Tian Xiaochun had to stand up.
Because Tian Xiaochun heard that the robbed man who was threatening to sue the authorities and the law and was quibbling about words was Zhao Xiaoshu who lived next door to them.
