Chapter 29 Silver Reward

 Ziyu took a look at the compact little courtyard. There were more and more people in the house, and this small courtyard was no longer suitable for living in.

The room at home is limited, so the goods brought back can only be piled in the room where she lives, which is also convenient for storage.

Seeing that it was getting late and the journey was tiring, even Ziyu, who was made of iron, could not bear it.

“Brother Hong, you will be responsible for Xiao Luo’s daily life from today on. I will be out for a while the day after tomorrow.

 The safety of your home is up to you. Supervise their exercise on a daily basis. "

Ziyu took out another one hundred taels of small denomination silver notes and gave them to Hong Feiyang, and took a look at Xiao Luodao who was having a good time.

“Children like to go out and play. Remember to buy some gadgets for them and buy them whatever they want to eat.”

 Including the government reward, we got a total of 3,800 taels, and I asked my brother to check it out.

"This, this, this... is too much!" Hong Feiyang stuttered and didn't know what to say. He earned more than 600 taels of silver in three days, which was a good thing that he had never dared to think about in his life.

 She placed the smallest share in front of Xiao Luo, one share to Cheng Yuanju's three children, and one share to Hong Feiyang.

It is really inconvenient to take Xiao Luo out, and I don’t know how many winds and rains I have to go through along the way.

I just came over from the government. One of the robbers was a "many-faced man" who was wanted by the government for many days.

 “Thank you for the reward, little brother!”

He likes to harm wealthy families the most, and has a reward of up to three thousand taels.

“Chen Da, take an elbow and cut it into thin slices, bring it to the door and ask people passing by to taste it.”

Hong Feiyang, who has been in contact with Ziyu for a few days, already knows the status of Xiao Luo in his heart, and must protect Xiao Luo for the sake of a good life in the future.

Ziyu glanced at Xiao Luo who was still playing outside, ignored him, and went straight back to the house to rest.

 “Yes, young master!”

The bone-in elbows, after braised, sell for sixty cents each, which is exactly three times the price of raw meat.

 Although it is not as good as the previous life, it is quite good for this era.

“Change the spice pack every half a month, and the meat and offal must be braised separately, otherwise the flavors will be transferred and affect the taste.

Only by traveling alone can one shorten the time.

 After the two of them entered the main room and sat down, Xiao Wu clasped his fists and whispered.

Zi Luo's eyes were filled with tears, and her mouth was deflated again and again. Although she was very sorry to leave her brother, she knew that it would be hard for her brother to take him with her when he went out.

“Young Master, I want to go out with you so that I can have someone to look after me on the way. At least someone can help you catch a car or something.” Hong Feiyang said reluctantly when he heard that he was asked to stay at home.

Ziyu smiled and cut out a warm elbow herself, divided it into three parts and brought it to the small courtyard.

Xiao Wu wiped the sweat from his forehead, took the banknotes and left in a hurry with the two guards.

Ziyu counted out five hundred taels of silver notes and put them on the table, and said to Hong Feiyang who came in.

“Five hundred taels of silver notes are your reward for killing the bandit.”

 “Brother, it’s delicious!”

 “My words are the rules. We will cooperate again next time if we have a chance!”

The alluring aroma of braised pork floats in the small courtyard, attracting people passing by outside to go around the door and poke their heads in the air.

Eat whatever you can’t sell out that day, make sure it’s fresh. "

“It’s delicious! My brother’s cooking skills are beyond your imagination.

“Haha, just listen to Brother Ziyu. Thanks to your help along the way, otherwise my life would have been left to me.

On the way back, Ziyu had been secretly observing Hong Feiyang and found that although he was big, he was not as careful as he was.

Xiao Wu will take his leave now. The caravan will set off back to Jiang Mansion tomorrow. I hope we will meet up soon. "

 Brother has to go out for something and will be back in a while. "Ziyu said cruelly, looking at Xiao Luo whose face was slowly falling.

Ziyu really couldn't get used to being called a hero by a grown man, which made her seem so old.

“No, it’s more convenient for me to come and go alone. If you go with me, you have to take Xiao Luo with you.

 Xiao Luo, who was smiling happily after eating, fed Zi Yu the largest piece of braised pork on the plate.

Just when Ziyu was about to go back to her house to rest, there was a quick knock on the courtyard door, and in came the two guards who had left and returned.

Be obedient and play with Brother Hong at home. You are not allowed to run around or cry.

I have something to discuss, could you please lend me a moment? "

 Sister-in-law Chen, who had learned a lot, admired Ziyu even more. She didn't expect that this young boy knew so many things.

 …

 “Let’s all have a taste!” Ziyu looked at the people who were collectively swallowing their saliva and said in a funny tone.

 He is considered a rich man!

“Protect Xiao Luo well. There will be more money in the future. Take him back to the house to rest as soon as possible.”

 She recalled what she had seen in her previous life: burning oil, frying sugar until brown, boiling spices, and adding sugar to water and boiling.

 “Brother Hong, come in!”

Xiao Wu took out a stack of banknotes and pushed them in front of Ziyu. After seeing him counting them in person, he was about to leave.

Ziyu flicked the banknote in his hand and shouted.

With those quick movements, he was afraid that Ziyu would leave him behind and do something murderous and swindling.

 When cleaning the pig, add green onion leaves and flour and knead it repeatedly. After marinating, it is sold for fifteen cents per catty, and the pig head meat is twenty cents per catty.

"Little fifth brother, take these one thousand taels and divide them among your brothers. Anyone who sees it will have a share!"

“Hero, Xiao Wu came uninvited and caused a lot of disturbance, please forgive me.

“Sister-in-law Chen, follow me into the kitchen and teach you how to prepare brine. From now on, you can brine some pig heads, pig trotters, and pig offal every day and sell them at the door.”

“Brother, how can this be so embarrassing? Brothers can’t come up with anything decent to thank you, so how can they still accept your money!

 This is against the rules! "Xiao Wu quickly looked away, bowed his head and declined again and again.

Ziyu stared at Xiao Wu with a half-smile, and only looked away when she saw sweat forming on his forehead.

 Xiao Wu was complaining in his heart, but he must never encounter something like that again, it will kill someone!

 Remember, if Xiao Luo is safe, it means that all of you are safe, do you understand what I mean? "Ziyu's little face sank, and she said with great momentum.

 The four children in the family were so greedy that they stayed in the kitchen and swallowed their saliva.

Also coming with him was Steward Xiao Wu. He took a look at the small courtyard, smiled and said, cupping his hands.

He is too young and traveling all the way is hard and unsafe.

“Brother, you have to come back soon! Xiao Luo will wait for you obediently.”

The next day, when Ziyu stretched herself out and went out, Mr. and Mrs. Chen were already cleaning the elbows they had bought.

Ziyu explained it in detail to Mrs. Chen while doing it, and finally let her go after watching her actually do it.

 Ziyu went back to the house and prepared a small bag of marinade according to the recipe she remembered from her previous life.

Although Chen Da, who knew the price, was a little reluctant, he still obeyed Ziyu's words.

  In order to find something to do for the idle people at home, Ziyu also took great pains.

 “Brother Xiaowu, you’re too polite, just call me by my name!

 Here you are, heroes, heroes, you are shouting loudly, please come inside! "

“Be good, brother will definitely come back early. When you go out, you must follow Brother Hong closely and don’t follow others.

 When you are older, I will give you a pony! "Ziyu coaxed.
