Chapter 221 Eat well, drink well, live well

  The officials guarding the city of Bohai City didn't believe that Su Jingchen and the Sun family were related. In fact, it was just for profit. In fact, whether they were allowed to enter the city was a matter of their lip service.

  Su Jingchen secretly gave five taels of silver to each of the two guards of the city, and the two officials let them into the city, but told them not to stay in the city, but to leave quickly by boat.

  After Su Jingchen entered the city, he found the cattle and horse market and sold the horses, and then brought the Sun family to Luzhou by boat.

  Like Yu Xiaolian and his family, they also landed in Weicheng.

  Because of the previous experience, Su Jingchen still pretended to be a gourd, saying that the Sun family was his relatives.

  The city guards in Weicheng saw that Bohai City had let people in, so they didn’t make it too difficult for them, and let them in after receiving the benefits.

  During the period, Su Jingchen wanted to write a fake marriage letter between him and Sun Manyu, so that he could save a lot of interrogation and money.

  But due to Sun Manyu's reputation, Su Jingchen didn't do this.

   It's just that there are too many Sun family members, not to mention anything else, just eat a meal, you get a lot of food.

   Seeing that the Sun family's food was getting less and less every day, and they were about to run out, Su Jingchen began to spend money to buy rice for them.

  In just over a month, he found that the two hundred taels of silver he carried with him and the eighty taels of silver he sold for the horse were almost used up.

  It’s so delicious, it’s just food, not accommodation. The group of them never stayed in an inn from the beginning to the end, and they all slept in the open air.

   It’s just that food is expensive. Brown rice and coarse grains cost two cents a catty.

  In addition, every time you pass through a city, you have to bribe the officials guarding the city. Bribes alone account for a large part of the cost.

  When he arrived in Weicheng, Su Jingchen only had twenty taels of silver left, so there was a scene where he pulled Sun Manyu over to lie.

  Su Jingchen said, "If you don't come again, I really don't know how to bring them to Los Angeles."

  If he had gone by himself and got off the boat, he would have bought a horse, and he would have already arrived in Los Angeles by this time.

  Yu Xiaolian is actually very grateful to Su Jingchen. If it weren't for him, she might have to rush to Bohai City. Now she can pick up someone halfway, so Yu Xiaolian is really happy.

  Yu Xiaolian and Su Jingchen said that they came to pick up the Sun family, because Sun Manjiao, the little granddaughter of the Sun family, was abducted to Los Angeles by Ren Yazi, and she happened to see her.

   Then he asked Su Jingchen, where is your father? What about Yao Shi?

   Isn’t there no water to eat in the north? Why aren't you with me?

  Su Jingchen replied evasively, Yao is dead, and his father was with Zheng Yuanfeng in Linzhou. Zheng Yuanfeng was very foresight, and bought several pieces of land in advance, each with natural springs.

  Let’s put it this way, there are only a dozen water sources in the entire Linzhou, and Zheng Yuanfeng owns seven of them.

   also said that some time ago, King Jin went to Beidi for disaster relief, and it was Zheng Yuanfeng's mansion who was borrowed.

  Yu Xiaolian listened, and praised in her heart, Zheng Yuanfeng really deserves to be the richest man in the future, and ordinary people really can't match this smartness, so she just reminded him, and he knew how to use it reasonably.

   Over there, just selling water, you can make a fortune by selling it!

  Su Jingchen and Yu Xiaolian inquired about Su Jingyue's recent situation again, and learned that Su Jingyue eats and drinks well, and goes to school every day, and expressed his gratitude to Yu Xiaolian.

  Yu Xiaolian couldn't help complaining about Su Jingchen's meal. If it didn't happen that the little tiger insisted on delivering food to the ruined temple, she really wouldn't be able to meet Su Jingyue. A few days later, Su Jingyue might have wandered somewhere.

  If Su Jingyue really can't find him, Su Jingchen should blame himself for the rest of his life.

  For Yu Xiaolian's reprimand, Su Jingchen just listened honestly and didn't dare to reply. He was glad that Yu Xiaolian picked up his younger brother, and for this he specially thanked all the gods and Buddhas in his heart.

  Yu Xiaolian packed two big bags of steamed buns this time, a total of more than one hundred, and handed Su Jingchen one bag, and she took the other bag herself.

  When the two returned to the ruined temple, Sun Daji's wife and Sun Erji's wife had also returned. They only picked up a small amount of firewood, which had already been burned at the bottom of the pot.

  The weather is too cold, cook some rice soup to drink, not only can you eat full of water, but also warm your body.

  The people poured the water in the water bag into the iron pot, and then put all the water bags together, and a few people went out to ask for water from the houses in the city.

  When Yu Xiaolian and Su Jingyue came back with two big bags of steamed buns, everyone's eyes lit up and they licked their lips involuntarily.

   Seeing this, Wuye Sun hurriedly said, "I can't eat it, save it for tomorrow, and everyone will have porridge later..."

  Sun Siye also said that now is not the time to eat and drink well, as long as you don't die of hunger, let Yu Xiaolian wrap up the steamed buns and save them for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

  Yu Xiaolian would not listen to them, "I met me when I was eating and drinking well. Today we not only have to eat and drink well, but also have to live well. I will take you to a hotel later."

  Yu Xiaolian said as she distributed steamed buns to everyone, "Eat them all, if you are full, it's enough."

   Several little guys were stuffed with steamed buns by Yu Xiaolian, but they didn't dare to bite. They all looked at their grandfather.

   Sun Wuye and Sun Siye looked at their little grandchildren, looking at them eagerly, and could no longer be cruel, and murmured, "Eat, eat, eat enough."

  As soon as the old one spoke, the young one opened his mouth and bit the steamed bun, gobbling it voraciously, finishing a steamed bun in a few mouthfuls.

  Sun Manzhi grabbed two steamed buns and gave one to his grandfather and fourth grandfather, "Grandpa, these steamed buns are delicious, sweet."

   Sun Daji's wife was also fed a mouthful of steamed buns by his eldest son, "That's right, why are these steamed buns so sweet? Could there be sugar in them?"

  This steamed bun is from a supermarket. When modern people use yeast to make dough, they like to put some sugar to promote fermentation. Therefore, this steamed bun is not only thinner than ancient steamed buns, but also sweeter than ancient steamed buns.

  Ning Chuyu's mother and daughter didn't dare to leave the ruined temple after their buns were robbed. Duan was afraid that those beggars were waiting outside to **** her, so she didn't dare to go out.

  At this time, seeing the Sun family members in the ruined temple eating a white flour steamed bun, Duan urged Ning Chuyu to go and get two steamed buns.

  Ning Chuyu refused, and sat on the steps outside without moving.

  Usually they ate food, but never gave it to those people, how could she have the nerve to eat other people's food?

   Another one, they have been with these people for almost half a month, and the wife of Fourth Master Sun couldn't walk on the road, and wanted to take their carriage, but her mother didn't let her.

   Now her mother actually wants to eat other people's white flour steamed buns, why is her mother so embarrassed?

   Seeing that her daughter was useless, Mrs. Duan glanced at Ning Chuyu, walked into the ruined temple openly, and went straight to the place where the steamed buns were placed.

   "Oh, there are still so many steamed buns, can't you eat them? It just so happens that my daughter and I haven't eaten yet. I'll take...

   Oops, you kid... why did you hit me? "

  After Sun Manzhi handed the steamed buns to his two grandfathers, he sat in front of the pile of steamed buns and ate the steamed buns. When he saw Duan Shi coming to pick up the steamed buns, he immediately hit Duan Shi on the back of his hand with great force.
