The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Yan Laoer came over, firstly to see how the charcoal was burning, and secondly to talk to Qi Wu about opening doors, windows and furniture.

The amount of charcoal burned was more than he expected. Qi Da and Qi Wu also built a wooden platform to raise the ground and built a shed.

"Master, I can fight." Qi Wudao: "This is the window and the cabinet and so on, Second Brother Yan, don't you plan to make it look better?"

He knows his craft well and definitely has nothing to do with good looks.

"My family is not picky about these things, as long as it is easy to use, but, Qi Wu, you brothers can't just rely on your health to fight like this. You can't make money. You can't make it if you are tired. I see the matter of digging medicine in the mountains. Let’s forget about our brothers, just charcoal and incense sticks are enough for us.”

Yan Lao Er felt sorry for his brother.

Without him watching from the side, Qi Daqi and Qiwu would like to let the fire continue to burn.

There was a lot of charcoal, and there was also a lot of piled wood, all of which were felled by Qi Da and Qi Wuyi with ax and ax. In a place where he could not see, I don't know how much these two people suffered secretly.

"It's just this charcoal. I also think that we can't just have the four of us. We need to add some people to help share the burden."

Qi Wu would only say: "Second brother Yan, we are not tired, really, not at all."

Yan Laoer sighed, and it was clear at a glance what the honest leader Qi Wu was thinking.

I can't bear to let go of these jobs that can make money.

It's not easy to refute him, so I can only keep saying that I am not tired or tired, how could I not be tired.

Yan Lao Er moved the charcoal to the bullock cart, and Qi Wu was not allowed to do it, so he did it himself.

I was so tired that I looked back at Qi Wu, the tall man squatted aside, looking at him pitifully, like a big abandoned dog, about to cry.

Yan Lao Er walked over and squatted opposite him.

"Qi Wu, we have started to make money now, let's sell the charcoal, and the incense sticks are also selling well. I will settle the accounts later and share the money with you. We don't want to be rich, so we simply dress and eat , is it enough?"

Qi Wu followed his words and thought for a while, then nodded foolishly.

Yan Lao Er gave him time to react, and waited for him to nod before saying again: "Look, if you are exhausted, do you have to see a doctor and take medicine? The medicine is not cheap, and it is quite bitter. Rice smell?

It's all about rushing things to catch up, so we are busy spinning around like a spinning top, but we have to be a bit lazy in our busy schedule, don't you understand? "

Qi Wu couldn't understand this, Second Brother Yan told him to be lazy and do less work.

"Second brother Yan, my fourth brother hasn't married a wife yet." Qi Wu lowered his eyes not to look at him.

This is Qi Wu's heart disease, his fourth brother's marriage.

Yan Laoer almost didn't come up in one breath.

"Qi Wu, how much do you think it costs to marry a daughter-in-law?"

Qi Wu said very seriously: "Second brother Yan, I have been inquiring about it all the time. If the talent is good, why not five taels of silver."

Yan Laoer: "Is that the market in Qishan, or before the famine, and you haven't inquired about it recently?"

Qi Wu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"Go back and ask your old lady if there is anyone in the west and north of the village who is interested. You are not much different from your relative, shouldn't you also look at it?"

Yan Lao Er thought about the age of the two brothers, what a crime, he has to marry a wife and have children at such a young age, but the world is like this, he can only follow the crowd.

Qi Wu felt uncomfortable, and said in a low voice: "I'm still early, show my fourth brother first."

If Yan Laoer hadn't stayed with them for a long time, I'm afraid I couldn't see that this fellow was blushing.

Is this face darker again? Charcoal smoked?

Think back to Qi Si again, and freeze on a face full of dust and wind.

He cleared his throat uncomfortably, and the culprit for tossing the two young men into such a state was none other than him.

"Go, come back with me."

Qi Wu dawdled and was unwilling to leave.

"What about the old charcoal, I'll stay and watch."

Yan Laoer said with a serious face: "What are you looking at? No one is here during the day and there is nothing missing, so I have to leave someone here to watch at night? Hurry up and go home and sleep."

Qi Wu got into the car slowly, not at all as agile as he usually works.

Yan Laoer hurriedly urged him, and when he sat down, he called Sanbao to leave.

On the way, he was still nagging: "If I'm not at home in the future, let my mistress or your sister-in-law watch over you. You are not allowed to sleep here at night, and you are not allowed to burn so many piles, and you are not allowed to cut so much wood."

He made up his mind to find someone to help with the work, but just by Qi Wu's reaction, he knew what would happen to Qi Da and Qi Si, and he still had to take care of his brother's mood. This matter should not be rushed, it had to be taken slowly.

When the two returned to the village, Yan Laoer only lay down and then got up again.

There was charcoal on the ox cart, he thought for a while, but he didn't bring the fragrant soap, so he put the wrapped ginseng on his body again.

After running around the brick factory, the charcoal in the car was sold out. It was agreed to pull the bricks tomorrow, and Yan Laoer took the remaining charcoal to Yongning City.

He went to several pharmacies to inquire about the price of ginseng, and also inquired about the medicine to treat the disease.

The answer is that the price of the latter has doubled several times, and there is no market for the price.

The price of the ginseng medicine shop ranged from thirty-seven taels to forty taels, which was a little higher than when he asked a few days ago.

It seems that due to the epidemic, there is a shortage of medicines in pharmacies, and the overall price of medicines has also risen.

Yan Lao Er thought about it, but he was still not willing to sell it.

According to his daughter's vision, once their raft could walk in the river, they would go upstream and downstream to buy grain.

Longxing and Fengming in the upper reaches are close to the mountains, so this wild ginseng may not seem expensive, if you want to sell it at a higher price, you have to go downstream, go to Changping, or simply go to Linhai Mansion to inquire.

Taking the opportunity of asking the price at the pharmacy, he inquired about Gu Feng's situation.

It is said that now, like Huju City, the city gates are sealed, and those who get sick in the inner city are removed and resettled separately.

The victims outside the city did not know what happened. Some said more than half of them died, some said they were taken to remote places for medical treatment, and some said that some victims fled and went to Changping...

The news contradicted each other, but it was so hot that it was impossible to tell the actual situation of Gu Feng.

Yan Lao Er went to Huimin Hall again.

Dr. An was invited away by him for a few days, fearing that his family would not feel at ease, so he rushed to Yongning, so he wanted to drop by to report that he was safe.

The old doctor sitting in the hall recognized him, grabbed him immediately, and kept asking about Dr. An's situation.

He explained to others for a long time before the old doctor let go of his hand, and the shopkeeper and his staff surrounded him again.

Yan Laoer: No need to do that, he won't run away, really.

They surrounded him for no other purpose than to ask their young master if he was doing well, where he was now, and what was going on in Huju City.

Yan Laoer answered one by one, especially the separation and isolation of Huju City, he said very carefully.

The shopkeeper asked him to wait a while, but the clerk ran out and had to wait for three quarters of an hour. He came back with a bundle, panting, and handed it to him, asking him to take it to their young master.
