After lunch and a few more gossips, Li Laosi and Li Yong each carried a big wicker basket on their backs and set off on their way to the barracks.

Two palm-wide cloth bags are added to the wicker basket, so that the shoulders will not be strangled when carried on the back.

The basket is lined with several layers of cotton cloth, which is breathable and insulated, so that the buns will not become wet due to being piled up.

That is, the two of them beat their horses and ran, and the heat emitted from behind was like white wings, which was very joyful.

Everyone was standing at the entrance of the village to see each other off, and there was still a bit of sadness and sadness. Seeing this, they couldn't help laughing.

"Why does it look like two birdmen on horseback?"

"Haha, I want to say this too!"

"I hope the steamed stuffed buns haven't cooled down yet when we arrive at the camp."

"I'm not afraid of being too cold, it's much warmer this season."

After everyone said a few words, they dispersed to get busy.

Li's second son didn't want to delay the children's class tomorrow, so he found his old mother and planned to go to the city immediately.

Mrs. Li didn't stop her, Zhang Luo said, "You go to Mr. Wen's first, and bring some butchered vegetables and meat buns for Mr. Wen and Wen Hai. I'm afraid they don't cook often on weekdays, so they always deal with it." eat."

Soon, the pork was tied up with hemp rope, and the food was packed. Mrs. Cui asked Sister-in-law Qiong to bring two cloth bags, one big and one small.

The old lady smiled and helped to divide, and then carefully instructed her son a few words.

The family's carriage was harnessed, and Jia'an's family was clamoring to go to the city to play together. Li's second son simply took Brother Mao in his arms, and Jiayin was the only child left at home.

It's not that Li Laoer doesn't love his niece, it's because the niece is too young for him to take care of as a grown man.

Fortunately, Jiayin was thinking about being with her mother, obediently accepted Erbo's promise to buy snacks, and sent them away with her little hands.

Tao Hongying's eyes were red, and she was really reluctant to part with her husband, but there was a lot of work at home, and her daughter kept following her, so she had no time to be sad.

Besides, Li Lao Er brought his nephews into the city, and unexpectedly ran into Liu's carriage at the gate of the city.

Liu Zhiheng just came back from Xianhe Town, and when he heard that Li Laoer was going to find Mr. Wen, he gave the basket brought by Li Laoer to Chang Sui.

"Tell Madam, I'll go see Mr. Wen too, and I'll go home at night."

After all, he changed into the Li family's carriage and left together.

Chang Sui was left with a wry smile, the Elder Master hadn't come back for half a month, and the Eldest Madam didn't know how to look forward to it at home, but it turned out that she couldn't enter the house like this!

The plan for a year lies in spring, and in this season, whether it is the common people or the court, the most important thing is the upcoming spring sowing.

Even the most diligent censor closed his mouth at this time, not daring to speak casually, for fear that something would happen and disturb such an important moment.

Therefore, after going to the court in the morning, there are almost no people on the Yushitai in the afternoon. From the upper officials to the small officials, they fished collectively.

Mr. Wen is also reading and writing at home at the moment, and the books were sent by Luo'an College.

Jiaren was a careful child. Even after copying a copy of the Guo family's library and leaving it in the college, he didn't stop the pen in his hand. He continued copying while reading, and then sent the extra copy to the small courtyard.

Mr. Wen understood that this was the disciple's concern, and he was afraid that he would be sad because he was kicked out by his family when he was free.

He simply filled the book with his feelings every day, and asked Wen Hai to give it to Jiaren after finishing a book.

Although the two teachers and students haven't seen each other for a long time, they are closely connected in this way.

Mr. Wen was surprised and happy to see Li Laoer and Liu Zhiheng bringing their three children to the door suddenly.

"Why are you here when you are free? Are you not busy at home?"

Li Zhiheng waved his hand, "I met Mr. Er at the gate of the city, so we came here together."

Li Laoer also smiled, "The family killed a pig today, and my mother was thinking about asking me to send you a piece of pork, so you can eat fresh."

Wen Hai took the food and saw that the butcher dish and steamed stuffed buns were still warm, so he smiled and said, "It's great that Mr. Er is here, what should my husband and I have to eat? My cooking skills are too bad. After practicing After such a long time, cooking porridge without sticking is the best level."

Everyone laughed and hurried to help set the table.

Liu Zhiheng didn't eat either, so he simply had a meal.

Second Li was drinking tea and talking with Liu Zhiheng and Mr. Wen.

Wen Hai took two buns and was about to take a few children to play in the alley.

The second Li picked up the purse and handed it to him, "Brother Hai, these boys want to buy sheepskin balls, if you know where they are sold, take them for a walk. There is another thing, if you can stop by and ask me a few questions It's even better."

Wen Hai took the purse, and said with a smile, "Mr. Er just give orders."

Li Laoer simply talked about what happened in the valley today, Wen Hai took the order, and soon took the three boys out.

Liu Zhiheng gnawed on the steamed stuffed bun and said, "People in your valley are constantly coming and going. This is stealing someone's business and giving you eye drops behind your back."

Mr. Wen nodded, "I'm afraid it has something to do with those restaurants in the city."

Liu Zhiheng shook his head, "I think it has more to do with these flower-appreciating courtyards outside the city. You must know that they also attract customers with the scenery. Their business was very good at first, but after the Broken Gold Beach, it has been greatly reduced. This year, I saw The orchard in Suijintan is about to bloom again, and the literati in the city have talked about it, so it made those families anxious, right?"

"Forget it, we'll know when Wen Hai comes back. Let's eat, this pig-killing dish is really delicious, and your traditional craftsmanship in the Northland is authentic. I have eaten it twice in restaurants in the city, and the taste is very strange."

"Yeah, why did the family think of killing pigs again, but it's not the Chinese New Year?" Liu Zhiheng and Mr. Wen asked about the village affairs while eating.

Li Laoer said, "This fat pig is dishonest. He jumped the wall and fell to his death. He had no choice but to kill it. It happened that the fourth son and Li Yong came back from the military camp and let them have a good meal. They carried more than 200 steamed buns and left." gone."

"The fourth child and Li Yong are back? They rarely have a good time. How is the pier? Is the training hard?"

Mr. Wen and Liu Zhiheng are considered to be half of the village, so they also know a little about Mr. Yan's alias as a soldier. At this time, they said, "I heard that the Yan family is making a lot of noise, and they are looking for people everywhere. Li Yong is also bold. It will be troublesome if it is discovered."

Li Laoer smiled and said, "Fourth, they came back before dawn in the morning, and left after lunch. They didn't meet any outsiders, so they were not afraid of being discovered. Both the fourth and Li Yong were much stronger, especially Li Yong. , I'm afraid that if my own mother is in front of me, I won't be able to recognize him."

"Oh, that's how it is. The army really trains people. Lord Hou also has a way of leading troops. The same soldiers guarding the riverside are like tigers in the hands of Lord Hou. They are evenly matched in battle with barbarians. In the hands of the Marquis of Dingbei It's been losing ground." Liu Zhiheng couldn't help complaining, looking down on Marquis Dingbei very much.

Mr. Wen also nodded, "Every time Lord Hou takes the lead in a battle, he fights the enemy bravely. But Hou Dingbei hides behind the generals, for fear of being hurt by the barbarians and causing low morale. How can he win the battle."

While chatting and laughing, they finished their meal, put away the bowls and chopsticks, changed the tea and water, and waited for Wen Hai to come back.

Wen Hai didn't delay either, and led the children back within an hour after going out.

In the middle of the night, the treasures will make a fortune, order a five-star praise and good-looking, and encourage Huahua who is still working hard to code during the holidays~~~
