Winding alleys, walking on bluestone roads, iron lamps hanging on both sides swaying in the wind.

"Here..." is really biased.Luo Wangshu looked at the children playing around the dilapidated wooden house, and silently swallowed the following words.

The man coughed a few times from time to time, his voice suppressed. "Go to the end and turn a corner and you will be there."

"Hmm..." Luo Wangshu always felt that something was wrong, "Do you know someone who sells things?"

The man forced a smile and nodded.

"I don't know how to call it? My name is Luo Wangshu, and she is my wife, Li Li."

What Luo Wangshu said was natural, the obedient man was taken aback, he looked at Li Li in disbelief, and even looked him up and down, his gaze could be regarded as horrifying.

Mo Li smiled and said nothing, which was his default.

In the next second, the man concealed his shock very well, and said, "Mr. Luo, I'm Xu Xiao."

"Well. Are you coming soon?" Along the way, Luo Wangshu thought that the wooden house he saw was already dilapidated enough, but after turning a corner, he realized that it was not the most dilapidated, only more dilapidated.

Xu Xiao hurriedly stepped forward and took out a key from his waist and skillfully opened the door. Luo Wangshu would be really stupid if he didn't know that this was Xu Xiao's home.

Now that they are all here, there is no need to go back, let's take a look and say, if someone is cheating, with Xu Xiao's weak appearance, Li Li can beat him with one hand.

Li Miaomiao had never seen such a dilapidated house. The wooden boards on the door were crumbling, and even the roof tiles were not complete.Silently grasping Mo Guang's hand, he was slightly relieved when he got a back grip with the same strength as his own.

It looks quite broken from the outside, but when I entered, I found that there were many simple wooden frames in the small yard, on which were hung good-quality rice paper, and on the wooden frame beside the door were large and small writing brushes, the quality Better than the ones I saw in the study.

"If you don't mind, come in and talk. The outside is a pen and rice paper, and the inside is ink and inkstone. There are not many, but I guarantee that the quality is very good..."

Before Xu Xiao finished speaking, he heard the sound of a broken bowl coming from the room, and he ran into the room in a hurry.

Luo Wangshu and Mo Li who were left behind looked puzzled. Out of curiosity, Luo Wangshu walked to the door and looked into the dark room.

Fur, bamboo, and some unfamiliar utensils, Luo Wangshu blinked, and they were quite complete.

"My lady! What are you doing!"

Faint voices could be heard in the room, Luo Wangshu didn't dare to go in, as a stranger, he just took a look, and by the way, he moved out a few small benches very familiarly, and let Li Li and the two children sit in a row , Listen to the corner... Cough, the story.

"Husband, just let me die, I don't want to see your great future ruined, so what face do I have to see my mother?" The weak crying of the woman came to her ears intermittently.

Luo Wangshu looks at Mo Li: Is it true?

Li Li shook his head and looked at Luo Wangshu's hand. He was idle anyway, he was not interested in other people's affairs.

Luo Wangshu didn't want to listen on purpose, but just wanted to buy a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.Well, well, he admits that the days without TV are a bit boring, and listening to the corner is also good.

"My lady... Qing'er, if you're not here, what's the point of my life?"

There was a lot of crying, Luo Wangshu picked out his ears, and couldn't bear it any longer, and yelled into the room: "Is the thing still for sale?"

The crying in the room stopped, and only Xu Xiao said: "Qing'er, don't worry, we will have money to see a doctor after selling the things, don't do stupid things, I will come when I go."

"Husband..."

After Xu Xiao came out, his eyes were red, and his expression was even more haggard. He wiped his face, forced a smile and said, "Let me tell you a joke. Everything is here. There are not many kinds of ink. There are better ones." There are also inferior inks. The better ink has a cyan luster, the second is black, and the worst is the ink with red, yellow and white luster. We don’t have that kind of pen. We have rabbits here. Brushes made of wool and wool, and papers include raw Xuan, cooked Xuan and semi-cooked Xuan. If you want to practice calligraphy, it is recommended to use cooked Xuan or semi-cooked Xuan. As for the inkstone, we only have ordinary stone inkstones for the time being, Mr. Luo, take a look?"

"How much is the price?" Luo Wangshu didn't understand these things, but when he looked at Mo Li, the latter nodded slightly, which was regarded as a recognition of the quality.

Xu Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "Six-foot Shuxuan, a brush, a piece of high-grade ink, a stone inkstone, and two small pens, a total of five taels of silver, how about it?"

"Five taels?" Luo Wangshu raised his eyebrows, rubbing his right hand on the stone inkstone.

"The minimum is five taels, no less." There was a faint pleading in the words.

"Well, pack it up." Luo Wangshu said after a brief silence.

"Thank you Mr. Luo!" Xu Xiao happily went to work.

The woman in the inner room leaned against the wooden door and put on an outer shirt with large and small patches, looking sadly at the busy Xu Xiao, her swollen body could hardly show any facial features.

Luo Wangshu glanced at her and turned his face away, feeling a little heavy in his heart.

Xu Xiao quickly packed the things, "Mr. Luo?"

"Let's get another set." After taking the things, Luo Wangshu murmured.

Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, "That's great!"

After packing the things, Luo Wangshu took out the money bag from his sleeve and gave him 20 taels of silver ingots, "Here."

Xu Xiao looked at Luo Wangshu in embarrassment, "Master Luo, this... I can't find it, why don't you guys wait here for a while, and I'll go back when I go?"

"No need, this is what you deserve. It's good. I'll come to you again if I need it. Also, don't buy medicine for your wife. Buy some pork bones and stew them with a kitchen knife for an hour. Drink them for a month. Well, if you can, buy some eggs and vegetables, it will work better than medicine."

After Luo Wangshu finished speaking, he handed over the things in his hand to Li Li, "Let's go."

"Ah."

When everyone was almost at the gate, Xu Xiao came back to his senses and shouted: "Mr. Luo..."

Luo Wangshu replied impatiently: "Don't thank me, let's talk about it the day you become famous. All thanks without giving things are hooligans!"

Xu Xiao: "..."

Following the route in memory, Luo Wangshu tugged at Mo Li's sleeve, "You won't be angry if I give you so much money?"

Mo Li smiled after hearing this, "Daughter-in-law, you have made a lot of money. If you add up these two sets, you can't get 50 taels in normal times. Among other things, that ink is of the highest quality, the ink used in the palace. It’s just that, the Xu family has provided the palace with the Four Treasures of the Study for generations, but it’s a pity that they fell for unknown reasons in the past two years.”

"50 taels?!" Luo Wangshu was stunned, "Then he still sells it so cheaply?"

"After being seized by the government, no one dared to buy from him, for fear of offending the government. It's wrong to say it's a cheap sale. No one buys it. No matter how good things are, they can only be turned into dust." Mo Li said calmly, saying In the end, there was a sense of desolation.

"That's right. We also took a certain risk when we bought it. It's a big deal to give more money when we go to buy it next time."

It was already late when I went back, I rented a ox cart and rickety along the way, Luo Wangshu and the two children comfortably fell asleep leaning against Mo Li, the warm golden sun lightly fell, it was beautiful and warm.

After returning home, they were greeted by Mo Fang's blank eyes, "You still know how to come back?"

Luo Wangshu and Mo Li looked at each other, and the latter went to cook with interest.

Li Miaomiao and Mo Guang rushed towards Mo Fang with a tacit understanding, "Azu~"

Mo Fang lost his temper instantly after being hugged, and went to play with the two children.

Luo Wangshu saw that he had nothing else to do, so he followed Mo Li to cook. He likes stir-fried pork liver the most, so he can't ruin it.

Li Li looked at the ingredients in his hand and felt a headache, "Daughter-in-law, someone has eaten pork liver, but after eating it, it will make you feel uncomfortable, why don't we stop eating it?"

Luo Wangshu, who was about to light the fire, rolled his eyes and told him, "That person must have not been washed clean, and he hasn't marinated it with salt and cooking wine for 10 minutes. Listen to me, it's delicious."

"ten minutes?"

Luo Wangshu paused, and explained, "It's almost time for a cup of tea."

"Oh..." Li Li nodded, "What should I do after washing and marinating?"

"I don't know the specifics. Add some sliced ​​ginger, garlic and chili and stir-fry. I want something spicier."

Li Li pointed to the pig's intestines and asked, "Then how do you eat this?"

"Well, wash it and cut it into sections of one centimeter or less and no more than two centimeters. Add ginger and salt. If you have green vegetables, put some green vegetables. Cook it and eat it." Is this how pig intestines are boiled in memory?And it's pretty tasty.Luo Wangshu's stomach growled, "In short, you can do it, as long as it is cooked and the seasoning is right, it won't be unpalatable."

Mo Li: "Hmm..."

Stir-fried offal and boiled small intestine...is it really delicious?Li Li didn't know that he was about to open the door of the new century, and he would still cook according to his wife's orders. However, there was still a fish in the bamboo basket. If the food didn't taste good, he could cook another fish.

Because there was no cooking wine, Li Li added some rice wine from home, and strictly followed the steps Luo Wangshu said. As for how much to use, he had to rely on his own usual experience.

When the aroma came out, Li Li couldn't believe it. After the frying came out, he took a piece of pork liver and tasted it. It tasted really good.

"How is it? I'll just say it's delicious." Luo Wang happily tasted a piece, it was delicious!

Mo Li looked at a bowl of pork liver thoughtfully, and was finally pulled back by Luo Wangshu, "What are you doing in a daze? Continue."

"Ah."

For dinner, a bowl of pork liver, a bowl of boiled small intestines with green vegetables, and spicy rabbit meat made from wild rabbits brought by Li Hu. Several people gathered around a small square table and each ate two bowls of rice. , the bowls used by Mo Li and Li Hu are sea bowls.

After eating and clearing the table, Li Hu hugged Li Miaomiao and said to Luo Wangshu and Mo Li: "I won't go out from tomorrow, thank you for taking care of Miaomiao these days, I won't say anything else, in the future If you have anything to say, just say it, even if money can’t support it, you still have strength.”

"Miao Miao is very obedient, most likely she was playing with me." Luo Wangshu is not used to thanking others, and he doesn't have much emotion when speaking, but the tips of his ears are a little red.

During this period of time, Li Hu can be considered to have figured out Luo Wangshu's character. He speaks lukewarmly, but he is really kind, otherwise Miao Miao would not like to cling, so he just smiled when he heard the words, "Then let's go Let's go, come and play when you have time."

"Yeah." Mo Li sent him to the door, "It's getting dark, be careful on the road."

"Okay, you can go back too."
