Next comes another round of supplies.

In the grocery store, I bought a basket of dozens of eggs.

Last time I came to sell eggs for money, this time I came to buy back.

I swept away all the miscellaneous things in the kitchen.

I found out that the grocery store even has sauerkraut!

She was overjoyed. Pickled fish, pickled cabbage with vermicelli, pickled cabbage with meat...

She bought a knee-high ceramic jar directly.

It’s just quite expensive.

It is more than twice as expensive as before. Food is not cheap nowadays.

An old lady who was delivering an oil umbrella to the grocery store for consignment talked to her about this.

Li Changle listened to her chatter for a while, and then bought two umbrellas from her...

I also went to the rice store and bought two bags of grain. I still have work to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

There is no shortage of sweet potatoes at home. If there is a shortage, she will plant some space seedlings, which will last for a long time.

There are still large bags of refined rice in the system warehouse that have not been eaten, and there are plenty of ingredients for eight-treasure porridge.

She planned to wait until the wheat was harvested and then keep two loads of space grain to grind into flour for her own consumption.

Basically she doesn't need to buy food.

When spring comes, she will plant a rice field on the farm.

There are also system warehouses for items such as soy sauce and sugar, including seafood and dried goods.

When I got to the meat stall, I asked for the remaining half of a rib, a pig's stomach, a pig's liver, a plate of lard, six pounds of pork belly, and almost a pound of rice noodles.

Two large bones are given as a gift.

Stall owners selling pork can close their stalls early today.

She will go back to Lushui Village tomorrow, and she will be able to earn back the money she spent today!

The apples in the woodshed in the yard should have borne fruit long ago!

And the lychees she had forgotten!!!

If she hadn't heard a female guest in the private room asking if there were any grapes for sale in Liping just before she walked out of Wanjia Restaurant, she probably wouldn't have remembered it.

There are no more grapes, but she has apples and lychees, which she can eat and sell forever.

……

On the way back, Leng Yi hired a bullock cart to carry him back.

He wanted to hire a carriage, but Li Changle refused.

A horse-drawn carriage cannot carry as much as an ox-drawn cart.

She really bought a lot on this trip, including food, clothes and daily necessities. She spent a lot of money and her wallet was empty.

When they walked out of the city gate, they met Gu Jingyan, and they were both stunned.

"How did you find me?"

"Why did you come to the county?"

The two said in unison.

Li Changle: "..." It must be a misunderstanding. She glanced at Lin Hai behind Gu Jingyan and realized that Gu Jingyan had left the manor early in the morning.

"Are you done yet?"

"Yeah." He frowned and looked at Li Changle who was sitting on the ox cart with a bunch of things, and then looked at Leng Yi next to the ox cart.

"Come out early to do some shopping?"

Li Changle waved at him while sitting in the car, "No! Come here, I'll make some room for you to sit."

Lin Hai, who was standing by, was about to remind his general that he was still holding the horse, and the general could ride back with the young lady.

Before he could even open his mouth, he saw his general walking towards the young lady.

"it is good."

Lin Hai: ???

The driver looked at these two passengers whose appearance was extremely inconsistent with the pile of things behind them, and wondered why they were still following two followers.

The driving of the ox cart made him very nervous, fearing that the cart would overturn and kill someone.

Along the way, Li Changle told Gu Jingyan the story of this trip.

Gu Jingyan listened calmly. After she finished speaking, he turned his head and asked Li Changle, "Aren't you afraid that those people might target you?"

"We have Leng Yi and Leng Er here, so we can just reject everyone who comes. They can't use force against me, right?"

Gu Jingyan said: "Not necessarily, it is possible that a cornered dog will do something desperate.

Reveal your identity when necessary. The title of General's wife can still intimidate people."

"Or, let Leng Yi and Leng Er go find County Magistrate Li and ask him for help." He had just greeted Li Huaitong.

The more he talked, the more worried he became. "I asked you to go to Beiding with me, but you didn't want to. You can do whatever you want under my nose."

Li Changle was pleased to hear this, "Don't worry, if we really can't make it, I'll let Leng Yi and Leng Er take the three of us away and look for you."

Gu Jingyan had no choice but to pull her rosy face, "Remember to ask Leng Yi and Leng Er to send a letter to me if there is anything."

"I know. Have you said it more than once?"

" ..."

The intermittent conversations between the two reached the ears of Leng Yi and Lin Hai, who were deliberately slowing down their pace behind them.

Lin Hai, who was leading the horse, shook his head, "The general has changed."

"That's not bad. The general has someone he cares about, so he won't completely ignore life and death no matter where he goes."

Leng Yi listened, and although he didn't say anything, he agreed with what Lin Hai said in his heart.

It was just past dinner time when we returned to the village.

Jiang made new noodle soup for the four of them, blanched spinach, fried eggs, and used sliced ​​pork liver as the soup base.

Gu Jingyan and Li Changle were eating in the inner courtyard. Gu Jingyan told her that someone would come to Xiaoleshan soon to take away the sweet potatoes, fish and shrimp.

A path was cut through the fence on the Xiaoleshan side so that people could walk through without having to go through the main gate of the farm. After all the grain was transported away, Liu Tiechui would repair the fence on the other side.

Li Changle asked him, "How many people are coming?"

"A group of people left Xiaozhou Village this morning. The soldiers used war horses to transport food. Fortunately, they don't have to go to the battlefield for the time being."

"This batch of grain from Xiaoleshan may be transported in two batches, and the soldiers transporting wheat are also on their way."

Li Changle: "We will sow wheat seeds tomorrow. We don't need to rent a big iron hoe for sowing, we can just broadcast the seeds. When we harvest the wheat, we can rent a harvester, the kind that has the three functions of harvesting, threshing and bagging in one machine?"

Gu Jingyan nodded.

Iron lumps can be used for everything. I really have to admire the talented people in China who can make these exquisite items.

Jiang had already prepared lunch for Yu'er and Li Shixi. They went out for some fun and came back to see their mother.

Li Changle interacted with the child for a while and found that Yu'er had finally woven a decent web today. He praised her a few words, then let her wipe her hands and face and climb into bed to take a nap.

Li Shixi took the two handwritten books that Li Changle bought for him, held the brush and began to practice calligraphy.

She was distressed to see him practicing calligraphy every day, "Aren't you tired of practicing like this every day?"

"My grandfather also practiced calligraphy when he was young. Studying is a boring thing. From ignorance to knowledge, from incompetence to proficiency, nothing is easy."

Li Shixi raised his head with a firm look, "Uncle is right, aunt, I am not tired. Compared to my uncles who work so hard every day that they can't even straighten their backs, studying is the least tiring thing."

"My grandfather said that reading makes people wise, and practicing calligraphy can improve one's character."

Li Changle nodded repeatedly, not daring to raise any more objections. She was not worthy.

When she was nine years old, her handwriting was uglier than dog's...

"Shixi is awesome! He has the awareness of studying at such a young age. You are all right. Learning is no small matter!"

Li Shixi was praised, lowered his head shyly, and took up the pen.
