Chapter 230: Nongjiazi (seeking nutrient solution)


Although Xiao Lian didn't know what Xu Zifan wanted to arrange, she now had a blind trust in Xu Zifan. She felt that she was right to hear from the third brother, so she agreed without saying a word.
Then they went to the library, sent the books copied these days, and settled the accounts. In total, their income from this trip is two taels of silver! These silver coins were all placed on Xiao Lian. Xu Zifan deliberately wanted to exercise her calmness in treating silver coins. Anyway, he was right next to her and could prevent pickpockets. Xiaolian was so excited that she was puffing her face. She was looking at things she liked along the way, but she didn't mention a word of "want" that she was very sensible.
When they passed by a cloth shop, Xu Zifan vaguely saw Zheng Chuan inside, and took a closer look, really! He led Xiaolian in and said with a smile: "Zheng Chuan, what a coincidence, are you here to buy cloth? Do you want to make clothes?"
Zheng Chuan tensed all over, turned his head and nodded at him, then glanced at Xiaolian, pointed his hand at a dark blue cloth, and said: "I want this, and get me enough for a piece of clothing."
Xiao Er hesitated: "Guest officer, you weren't..."
"this one."
Zheng Chuan's tone was cold, Xiao Er nodded hurriedly, took the cloth and ruler to measure.
Xu Zifan stepped forward and looked at it, and said, "This fabric is good, but the color is a bit old-fashioned, Zheng Chuan, would you like to buy some other colors?"
"Dirty-resistant." Zheng Chuan simply returned two words and stepped aside, meaning to let them choose.
Xu Zifan thought for a while and nodded: "That's right, sometimes blood may be splashed when I go into the mountains frequently. This color is quite suitable. Brother Xiao, help me to pull a piece of this cloth, just enough to make a suit." Then he said to Xiao Lian, "Xiao Lian, you come to choose, you and your parents should make a suit and choose a good-looking one."
Xiao Lian was surprised: "Brother, I have it too? Isn't this... too much? Both my parents and I have good clothes, or... I'll make two more for you, and wait for you to come... …Uh…" Xiao Lian saw Zheng Chuan hurriedly shut up, and changed her words, "Are you still going to study? It's appropriate to change your clothes in the future."
Xu Zifan shook his head, "You don't need to be so saving. I don't want to go into the mountains and copy books anymore. You pick it quickly. We can't catch the donkey cart later, and we will go back."
Seeing that he was serious, Xiao Lian's heart beat faster, and smiled, "I'll pick the third brother?"
"Go pick." Xu Zifan urged, walked to Zheng Chuan, and asked, "Zheng Chuan, are you in a hurry? If you are not in a hurry, why not wait for us? Xiao Lian should pick it soon."
Zheng Chuan couldn't help but look towards Xiaolian, then nodded, "Well, I'm waiting for you."
When Xu Zifan saw him look at Xiao Lian, he thought it might still be possible. He can't tell them clearly that at most they will have a few chances to meet, and he must be present. If they are interested in each other, they will naturally show it. Doesn't Zheng Chuan seem a bit interesting? Otherwise, which man would look at the girl next to her brother? However, Zheng Chuan was quite constrained. After a few glances, he went to look outside. It was good and reasonable.
This was bad in ancient times. It was harder to marry a younger sister than to take the imperial examination. He had to hurry up to see the two older sisters, maybe he could find an excuse to let them go back to their natal home. In the memory, the second sister gave birth to a daughter and was complained by the mother-in-law. , Seems to be a bit contradictory; the eldest sister gave birth to the eldest grandson of her in-laws, but the child was raised by her mother-in-law, and the eldest sister was a little weak. The best way to help them is to support them. It should be enough to be admitted to the show.
Xu Zifan pondered for a while and found that Xiao Lian hadn't finished picking. He glanced at Zheng Chuan, who seemed to be in a daze, and broke the silence, "Zheng Chuan, I want to explore the mountains tomorrow, do you want to go?"
Zheng Chuan immediately turned his head and disapproved: "Deep mountains are dangerous. You are not familiar with the mountains. Don't go. Do you want to go to the cave? In the creek... the same goes for washing."
Xu Zifan touched his nose and looked around, then moved his head to lower his voice and said, "It's not for taking a bath. I just want to see if there are any precious medicinal materials. No one has picked it. Maybe I can find something."
Zheng Chuan hid slightly, "Are you short of money?"
Xu Zifan nodded and sighed, "I'm in short supply, I hope I can save it as soon as possible. In fact, you won't be able to go in, so you can help me cover it. If my parents ask me in the future, you will say that you went with me. That's it."
"I don't lie." Zheng Chuan said without hesitation.
Xu Zifan looked at him, took a deep breath, and smiled and said: "You are such a good boy, so please don't take the initiative to tell my parents. I guess as long as I go home safely, they won't ask you." He felt that they couldn't reach a unity on this issue, so he simply changed the subject, "Why do you always wear so much? Isn't it uncomfortable to cover your neck with such a high collar? It's not so cold yet? But you don't seem to be sweating..."
As Xu Zifan talks, the more he wonders, Zheng Chuan's dress is no different from modern suits walking under the sun? Isn't it hot?
Zheng Chuan said: "I am used to it to prevent hunting and injury, I am not hot."
"Oh, your shoulders and elbows are tied to something, which is quite protective. But you can wear lighter when you are not hunting. Although weight-bearing can strengthen your body, it is easy to have joint problems if you do not take it off for a long time. I can’t realize it when I’m still young, and these problems will manifest after the age of 30, so pay more attention.
Xu Zifan didn’t pay much attention before, and he said a few more words when he saw it. It’s also an occupational disease.
Zheng Chuan nodded uncomfortably, and thanked him, "Thank you, I know."
Xu Zifan thinks that Zheng Chuan may not be in contact with people for many years, and he is not used to chatting with people, and he can chat to death every time. Fortunately, he felt that Zheng Chuan didn't dislike him. He liked Zheng Chuan's character very much, and he wanted to befriend this buddy. He thought that Zheng Chuan was very afraid of being pestered by him and said a bunch of reasons, he found it very interesting, and continued, "Actually, you live on the edge of the village, and there are usually no people passing by. You can lock the courtyard door and just wear it. Clothes, I’m free at home and enjoy the whole body more easily? The light and soft fabric is the most comfortable. I can’t do it. It’s not convenient to take a bath at home, and I have to go to the mountains."
Zheng Chuan stiffened for a while, pouting his mouth without speaking.
Xu Zifan raised his arm and touched his arm, and tentatively said, "Eh, have you ever thought about getting a wife? You don't like to associate with people so much, how can you marry a desirable wife in the future?"
Zheng Chuan took a deep breath and said: "I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so I should take a step forward."
Xu Zifan was stunned, and saw Zheng Chuan go out, and hurriedly chased after a few steps, "Zheng Chuan, Zheng Chuan!"
He yelled twice, and said to Shaohua in surprise: "What's wrong with him? Did I say anything excessive? 】
[No, just a joke and chat among normal friends. He also reacted normally. According to the collected information, Zheng Chuan is a taciturn person who does not like to interact with others. 】
[I thought we were friends, we got along well in the mountains, and he helped me watch the wind and let me take a bath. ] Xu Zifan was puzzled like Monk Zhang Er, wondering, [It seems that making friends in ancient times is different from that in modern times. It's much harder. I still make money first. Shaohua, remember to scan carefully tomorrow. It's up to you whether I can come back safely in the mountains! 】
[Relax, the scanning range of 500 meters is enough for you to avoid the beast or escape. 】
[Very good, let's go earlier and spend more time looking for precious medicinal materials. 】
"Third brother, I have chosen." Xiaolian came to buy cloth by herself for the first time. After choosing for a long time, she said embarrassedly, "Third brother, are you waiting in a hurry? I think there are several kinds that are good. I hesitated for a long time. Decided."
Xu Zifan didn't care about it and said, "Soon, you will choose things like this, you pay."
Xiao Lian happily went to pay the money. It feels great that all the money is on her own, and she can still pay for things by herself. Xiao Lian always smiled on the way back and chatted with Xu Zifan. Xu Zifan and the others went back in a donkey cart, but did not see Zheng Chuan along the way. Xu Zifan reflected on it, maybe he should adapt to Zheng Chuan's rhythm, and he can be friends with less talking, and he doesn't have to chat, so at least he doesn't have to make Zheng Chuan walk home, which is weird.
When she got home, Xiao Lian couldn't wait to show them the money and fabrics she had earned in the rooms of Xu's father and Xu's mother, and she said excitedly. However, she deliberately lowered her voice and told Father Xu and Mother Xu not to be public. She said: "Second brother and second sister-in-law guard us, and we have to guard against them. Father and mother are separated. You must be on one mind with third brother. This money is earned by third brother. Can't give it to Big Brother and Second Brother!"
Mother Xu knocked her on the head and said amusedly: "You little girl still worry about this? Aunty is not a club, so what do you mean?"
Xiao Lian rubbed her head and said: "Then I am afraid that your heart will be softened? Some parents are just like that. That son's money subsidizes other children. You see that they are not doing well. The third brother is good and capable. We are so good to us, of course we have to stay with him. Besides, I am also taking precautions before they happen. Look at my sister-in-law a few days ago. Isn't it the money to make trouble? More is worse than less."
Xu's mother and Xu's father looked at each other thoughtfully, and Xu's mother sighed, "You, really followed your third brother and even slipped away. It's okay to save you from being bullied by your in-laws in the future."
"Who dares to bully me, my third brother will definitely help me." Xiaolian said indifferently. She gave all the money to Xu's mother and said, "Mother, third brother asked me to give it to you. keep it."
Mother Xu took the silver coins for a while and said to Father Xu: "Old man, I think we are not holding it properly. Xiao Lian is right. It is better to do more than to do less. These are all earned by the third child, and they are all given to him. Take it separately, we still have some income in farming. In the future, if the boss and the second have something, we can still move the share that belongs to us, so we won't mix with the third?"
Father Xu nodded, "Take it to the third child, as well as the money for selling bamboo products. The third child is filial, so we can only save the farming land. three."
Mother Xu gave it as she said, and immediately knocked on Xu Zifan's door. When Xu Zifan opened the door, he saw Zheng Chuan walking by. Because Xu's mother was holding a purse, he entered the house with Xu's mother without calling Zheng Chuan. It's just that he is a little puzzled, why does the cloth bag Zheng Chuan is carrying seem to be much larger than before? Did he go shopping again?
