As for the issue of accommodation, it is also simple.
Now Mrs. Yuan will not come to stay in the inn. Only Mrs. Wang lived in her earlier house. Wu and Meng Yingzi can live in it. In addition, let Tao Xiuer move there too, freeing up her house for Meng Chaoqun and his wife.
live.
Luo Daquan, Ma Liang and others slept in Du Chuanfu's room. Yang Dalian went to work at a shop in the town, and Du Chuanfu was alone, and it was spacious. As for Meng Cheng, he lived in the same room as the Tao brothers.
With this arrangement, it's not crowded and it's just right.
Song Qiu took a look around and found that his family was also a "rich family" with a son named No. 23.
It's amazing.
During the New Year’s Eve dinner, you have to sit at two tables!
It was really lively.
The twelfth lunar month is about to enter, and the weather is getting colder. People on the road are bundled up tightly. Some are still running for life, and there are also groups of people rushing home to celebrate the New Year. They go north and south every day.
There were many people passing by.
Bamboo curtains were hung in the tea shed to block the wind, and a brazier was set up every day to keep the charcoal fire going. People taking a rest could sit inside and eat hot food without feeling cold.
There was also a brazier inside the inn, which made it extremely hot inside.
There were enough people, so Song Qiu didn't need to do anything. She just sat behind the counter, holding her head, looking at the account book, and thinking about some things in her mind.
When the busiest period of the meal came, all the eight tables in the inn were full and it was hard to cook anything. So Song Qiu put on an apron and went into the kitchen, took a pot and took the spoon himself, helping with the work for a while.
After the busy work was over, everyone was busy tidying up, cleaning everything inside and outside.
Song Qiu stood on the porch and looked at the tea shed where there were still many people resting their feet. There were fewer people passing by on the road. The sky was getting a little gray and it looked like it was going to rain in the evening.
Sure enough, as soon as the Shenshi time passed and the tea shed was packed up one after another, Yuan Hua and his wife were just busy arranging everything into the inn when a light rain started to fall from the sky.
On the official road outside, you really can't see a single passerby.
Soon, the light rain started to get heavier and heavier.
Song Qiu looked at it and asked the Wang family to prepare dinner and take a rest after eating.
As soon as the food was prepared here, a group of people came to stay in the rain outside.
Since Yang Huirong and his party left, the inn has not had any guests for four or five days.
There were not many people in this group, only five or six guards, protecting a middle-aged man.
Tao Zheng hurried out to greet the middle-aged man. He didn't say much when he entered the inn. Only the first guard talked to Tao Zheng, opened four upper rooms, asked for hot water, and asked delicious meals to be prepared and delivered to the room.
go.
Then the group went straight into the room.
The prepared meals were temporarily unavailable, and the Wangs had to work hard to prepare the dishes for the guests before they could eat by themselves.
At this time, Song Qiu had already asked Yuan Hua and the others to eat first and then return home.
After the guests finished their work, everyone heated up the dishes and ate them happily.
When a guest came to stay, Song Qiu told Tao Zheng and others to entertain him carefully, and then prepared to return to the village with Lihua and Aling.
Du Chuanfu came out of the inn, looked at the horses and carriages in the stables, and whispered to Song Qiu, "Girl, those horses... look like war horses."
War horse?
Song Qiu thought about the middle-aged man he had glanced at just now. He had a tall and straight posture, and he was full of aura, including several guards. He looked a bit like a man in the military.
"There are guests staying here. We don't have to worry about it. We will treat them well. They will leave early tomorrow morning," Song Qiu said.
Du Chuanfu nodded, sent Song Qiu and others down the path into Songshan Village, watched them go away, and then turned back to the inn.
After returning home, Mrs. Yuan had also eaten and was relaxing by the fire in the upper room of the Zhang family. Seeing Song Qiu and others coming back, Mrs. Deng quickly waved them all in to warm up.
"At noon, Lihua's aunt came back with a basket of jujubes, harvested from under her own tree. They are very sweet. You all have a try."
The dumpling basket is filled with jujubes, which are juicy and sweet at first glance.
Song Qiu and others sat on the small bench, each grabbing a few and tasting them.
It's such a small piece that you can finish it in three or two bites.
Seeing that everyone was eating, Old Deng and Old Yuan continued their leisure time.
"Xiangye said when she left that the old woman was now watching the family members take medicine every day and tidying up the house inside and outside, for fear that she would leave. She also treated Huihui well and even gave her some medicine.
Got new clothes."
"Don't worry about whether Jia Sheng's body can be taken care of well. As long as Xiangye and Huihui have a good life, I will rest assured. Huihui is really the only one in my life, so raise Huihui well, that's all."
Old Mrs. Deng said and glanced at Song Qiu, "Just like A Qiu, no matter what happens, a girl is still more promising than a boy! My sister, you have had your share of hardships now. From now on, you can just enjoy A Qiu's blessings.
"
Old Yuan also glanced at Song Qiu, smiling from ear to ear, and followed Old Deng's words and said: "Isn't that right? Don't be impatient when calling Xiangye, be patient, they are still young, take your time.
Take your time, it's really something that is not in your life, and you can't force it. I look at Hui Hui today. She looks good. How sweet is her little mouth? She is just a little weak, but she has to take good care of her. "
Old Mrs. Deng nodded and said: "Yes, Xiangye said that she also took Huihui to see the doctor. Her foundation is a little weak, but there is nothing else. She needs to eat more refined grains to support her. It will be fine when she grows up.
.”
Just like Stone Egg now, it can only be treated carefully and raised intensively.
Thinking of her little grandson, Mrs. Deng couldn't help but think of Mr. Zhang in the cell, and his expression became calm.
If Zhang Laodou hadn't thought of it, Shi Dan'er would never have suffered this fate.
When Hu Gua was born, he had no brains. He only listened to his father and harmed his own son.
Fortunately, this person has now changed his mind, otherwise Miao, the third daughter, would have been miserable.
Old Deng was thinking about something in his mind. He looked at Song Qiu and couldn't help but ask, "Aqiu went to the county town, right? Is the road in the county town easy to walk? There are not many people there. Get up early and go there early."
Just one trip, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back that day, right?”
Song Qiu just pretended that he had never been to the county town before and was curious about the county town. Seeing that Lihua and the others were also listening, he carefully picked up the details of his trip to the county town.
"From our town to the county seat, there is a big road, and it is wide! It is not too bumpy to take the mule cart, but it is a bit far. It took more than two hours before I started from the town! Let's go from our village.
, we definitely can’t walk back and forth, and if we really need to rush back, we’ll have to walk at night, which is inconvenient.”
Yes, otherwise why would it be difficult to go to the county seat?
There were very few people in their village who had gone all the way to the county seat to see it.
Old Mrs. Deng listened and had an idea in her mind. She didn't say anything more. She just wanted to wait until Dong Gua came back from the Cheng family's vacation and then talk to Dong Gua about what was on her mind.
