Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Chapter 48: Sleeping in the mountains

On the carriage, Li Haitang bit the jerky, looked at the bank notes repeatedly, and suddenly became rich, feeling like a nouveau riche.

"Little brother, what do you like, don't hold back, tell sister, we will buy it all back."

Li Haitang was very happy. The eggs cost one penny, one thousand taels of silver, and the eggs he got in exchange were enough to pile up into a hill. From being poor and empty to suddenly becoming rich, she really didn't feel at ease in her heart.

It's easy to make money for a brainless fan. Li Haitang plans to write a storybook. She has seen countless cases. When the time comes, she will sell it to De Quanban at a cheaper price, and she will treat Xiao Taohong as a favor.

"Sister, you buy Jinhua ham, and make me some pork patties with preserved vegetables."

Li Jinhu licked the corner of his mouth and said slowly, "Brother Xiao is the savior of our siblings. You should buy some for Brother Xiao. Sister, make him a pair of shoes."

Xiao Lingchuan walked up and down the mountains all the year round, and he was the most expensive shoe, he was a man, and he couldn't do it, so he could only go to the tailor shop, which didn't fit his feet well.

Driving the carriage, Xiao Lingchuan lowered his head to look at his shoes. He really didn't notice that there was a hole in the front of the shoe, revealing his big toe faintly.

"Brother Xiao, the gates of Lucheng will be closed at sunset, so we won't be able to arrive tonight, right?"

In the streets and alleys of the border town, once again because of the excitement of the whole class, there were many people and vehicles, and the carriage moved slowly. It only moved one thousand meters in half an hour.

"Well, I'm afraid I'm going to sleep in the wilderness."

There is no inn outside Lucheng, and there are several villages nearby. If you go to the village to stay overnight, you have to walk more than ten miles.

"Then let's sleep out for the night."

There is a gauze curtain hanging above the carriage, which is lowered at night to prevent mosquitoes. The boards of the carriage can be tossed around, and it is more than enough to sleep three people.

There are hanging cabinets around the top of the carriage. All the things they bought, including bedding, are placed in the hanging cabinets, and fragile pots, pans, and pans are placed in the carriage stools in an orderly manner.

Out of the border towns, there are far fewer shops selling food. Most of the things Chunniang gives are dry goods, and she also wants to buy some soft ones.

In the evening, Xiao Lingchuan stopped his carriage outside Lucheng, went to fetch water from the stream, and came back with two pheasants in his hand.

"The steamed stuffed bun is getting cold now, why not heat it up and make a baked steamed stuffed bun."

The sky is dark and the clouds are billowing, indicating that heavy rain is coming.

Xiao Lingchuan quickly lit a fire, boiled hot water for the siblings to wash, and left the chicken feathers on the rest. He threw away the viscera inside, washed it with clean water several times, and fixed it with sticks on strings where the chicken wings and drumsticks were. .

Xiao Lingchuan brushed a layer of honey on the surface of the chicken, and soon, the oil under the chicken skin was roasted and fell on the fire, making a sizzling sound. The skin of the grilled chicken is golden in color, and the aroma of the meat spreads far away.

"Sister, brother Xiao is good at roasting chicken!"

Li Jinhu's eyes were fixed on the chicken, and he dismissed the baked buns. He was lost on the mountain and his stomach was growling with hunger. Brother Xiao roasted a chicken before taking him down the mountain.

At that time, he wolfed it down and licked his fingers after eating, but he didn't remember it until he went down the mountain, and he didn't leave a piece for his family.

"Taste."

Xiao Lingchuan divided the roast chicken into two and gave half to each of the siblings. Li Haitang couldn't wait to take a bite. The skin was dried out, the chicken was very tender, the honey skin was sweet, and the taste was a bit strange but delicious.

Before the second chicken could be roasted, the heavy rain arrived as expected.

The carriage was parked in a dry area in a mountain depression. After Xiao Lingchuan simply scrubbed it, he got into the carriage and sat opposite his siblings.
