cumin? Xiong Zhuangshan looked up, and Cai Xue grabbed a handful of spices in his hand. He didn't know which spice was which, and naturally he didn't know which kind his husband pointed out.
"Wait a while after they finish their sacrifices, I'll go over and ask you." Xiong Zhuangshan said.
"Well, don't worry about it beforehand, left and right are just food, you can ask anytime, and when Cai Xue is done, don't add to the confusion." Tang Shou thought for a while, "Erlang, let's go to Auntie's to buy Pack cakes, when children are sick and don¡¯t want to eat, if they can eat something that they can¡¯t eat easily, they may still have some appetite.¡±
The two retreated quietly and went to Mother Xiong's house. There are people coming and going at the gate of Mother Xiong's house, some from the nearby town to buy pastries to sell back, and some runners who come to Xinghua Village to buy goods come to buy some food for themselves. It was bustling for a while, and the two came in without attracting special attention.
The two of them entered the courtyard and were about to walk towards the living room when Tang Shou stopped suddenly.
"What's the matter, husband?"
Tang Shou stretched out his finger, and saw Mrs. Xiong Wu standing not far away, and standing opposite her was a man in particularly shabby clothes.
Today's Xinghua Village has Xiong's family, and the running businessmen who come and go have brought a lot of economy, but some people didn't go out to work, and they cleaned up their homes. Those running businessmen who think Xiong's accommodation is expensive will be willing to live in it. In such a family. Pay a few cents for food every day, and you can eat some steamed corn bread and vegetables from the farm. Naturally, it is not as delicious as Xiong's family, but it is easy to control your hunger.
Therefore, many families around do not go out to work, entertain guests at home, and have a surplus of one hundred and eighty Wen a month. So now, except for a few villagers who are too muddy to support the wall, they are rarely dressed in such rags that they look like they were picked up from a garbage dump.
Mrs. Xiong Wu and the man stood in the yard outside the crowd, dozens of steps away from the house. This distance was just right, and the two of them talking alone would not attract attention. Others would just think they were talking It is a business matter, and as long as the two of them keep their voices down, no one will hear what they say.
The reason why Tang Shou noticed them was because he seemed to have seen the man pull Mrs. Xiong Wu's hand just now. Although she was thrown away by Mrs. Xiong Wu, she didn't see Mrs. Xiong Wu being ashamed. Instead, she looked around cautiously. , just a look of fear of being seen by others.
"Who is that person? Doesn't seem to be from the village?" Tang Shou has been here for more than half a year, and most of the villagers can recognize him, but he really has no impression of this person.
Xiong Zhuangshan shook his head and said, "It's really not from the village."
Tang Shou pondered for a moment, then called in the direction of Mrs. Xiong Wu, "Fifth Sister."
Seeing that it was them, Wu Niangzi's face suddenly changed, and she became flustered in an instant. She ran over quickly without even saying hello to the man.
I don't know if Wu Niangzi was scared or ran too fast. When she came to talk, she was out of breath, "Second brother, second brother Fulang, why are you here?" While talking, she secretly looked at Xiong Zhuangshan's expression cautiously.
Xiong Zhuangshan's face was still expressionless as usual.
Tang Shou said with a smile: "Cai Xue's son has developed a high fever, we bought some pastries and went to visit."
"Oh, that's it." Wu Niangzi looked extremely unnatural, she didn't know if she heard what Tang Shou said, and she looked absent-minded.
Tang Shou looked at Xiong Zhuangshan and saw that Xiong Zhuangshan didn't respond. He knew that Xiong Zhuangshan had always been impatient to meddle in other people's affairs, even if it was his own sister, he was not willing to meddle in other people's affairs.
Therefore, Tang Shou only nodded slightly and said: "Fifth sister, you are not too young. If there is a suitable family, you can come to propose marriage. If you want to come, Aniang is very willing to see you get married."
Mrs. Xiong Wu is Xiong Zhuangshan's younger sister after all, and there are some things that cannot be ignored, and she can't help but watch her go the wrong way and ruin her reputation. But since Xiong Zhuangshan didn't want to get involved too deeply with them, Tang Shou also based on this blood relationship, and let it go.
When the two came over, Mother Xiong was busy and didn't have time to talk. In addition to wrapping a small bag of pastries for the Cai family, she also wrapped a few catties of walnut cakes and sweet-scented osmanthus cakes for them, so she didn't ask for money.
There was also an episode in which a small vendor who didn't know Xiong Zhuangshan and the others pointed at the two and asked Mother Xiong, "Why did they jump in line? I've already lined up for a stick of incense. Why don't they come first and give it to them?" ?¡±
Mother Xiong put her hips on her hips and replied, "This is my second son and my second son, Fu Lang. If they want it, I'll give them all and I won't have yours."
The two sent the cakes home before returning to Cai's house. The sacrificial ceremony was over, and the sacrificial table in the yard had been taken down, and the big pig's head and chicken were gone.
?nbsp; At this moment, with a humble and sad face, he begged the shopkeeper: "You can take some more dry tea, these are really good things! They were brought back from the Western Regions by my father at the risk of his life. I heard from people there , This thing they also got from far away.¡±
"It's not that I don't help you, I also sympathize with your father's experience. Last time, I made an exception and accepted these dry teas for your poor sake. As a result, they couldn't be sold at all. It was the last time there was a village People said it was for sacrifices, but I sold them at a loss, or no one would buy them at all." The shopkeeper said: "It's useless for you to talk to me so well, and those rich young men will be happy. Just pay for it, that¡¯s all.¡±
The shopkeeper said and pushed back the cloth bag brought by the man to him. The shopkeeper's attitude was firm, and the man knew that talking too much was unintentional, so he silently put away the bag.
At this time, Tang Shou and Xiong Zhuangshan were walking over, and they glanced at it accidentally, and it turned out to be Cumin.
Tang Shou was so excited that he almost yelled, the yelling reached his throat, he choked it back, and coughed twice.
The shopkeeper looked up and saw that it was the two of them, and immediately changed his smile, ignored the man, and greeted him warmly.
"The two still want those spices?" Because Tang Shou and Xiong Zhuangshan always came to buy things, the shopkeeper knew their faces, but didn't know their names.
"Well, yes, double the amount for me."
"Double the size?" The shopkeeper's voice trembled a little. The two customers bought medium spices, even medium, and such luxury items are not cheap. If it is doubled, it can make a lot of money. .
The shopkeeper tried his best to stay calm, looking at the glamorous two people now, he couldn't help thinking that when Tang Shou and Xiong Zhuangshan first came here, they were dressed in rags and patches, and they were completely heaven and earth like they are now. At that time, the shopkeeper didn't think highly of them, and regarded them as servants from a wealthy family who came out to buy things for Mr. Wang. After a long time, these two people came back every three to five times, and the shopkeeper knew that they bought this thing for their own use, but the shopkeeper never smelled any fragrance from them. I also asked curiously, but I didn't get any news from the question, and it was almost regarded as a spy, so I gave up.
Tang Shou looked at the shopkeeper and nodded slowly. In fact, his attention was not on the shopkeeper at all, but on the man. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the man leaving the entrance of the incense shop. Tang Shou said: " You prepare it first, Erlang and I go out to buy some things and come back later to pick them up."
They are all regular customers, and they always come to buy things, so the shopkeeper doesn't leave a deposit or anything like that.
Tang Shou and Xiong Zhuangshan left the spice shop and looked around for a while, finally saw the figure of the man on the right side of the long street, and the cloth bag in his hand, and hurriedly chased after him.
"This gentleman." Tang Shou caught up with the man at a corner, ran forward, and patted the man on the shoulder.
Seeing Tang Shou's smiling face when the man turned his head, he subconsciously wanted to ask "what's the matter", but accidentally his eyes fell on Xiong Zhuangshan who was behind Tang Shou.
The man was instantly frightened and jumped up, hugging the bag against the wall.
"You you, what are you going to do?" The man hugged the bag tightly, looking at them as if he was looking at robbers, for fear that they would come up and snatch his things.
Tang Shou explained: "We are not bad people, Erlang just has a fierce face, don't be afraid, in fact, we met in the spice shop just now."
The man took a closer look at the faces of the two of them, and seemed to have some impressions, but Xiong Zhuangshan was really too fierce, so he said cautiously: "I don't know what the two are talking about?"
Tang Shou pointed to the bag in his hand and said, "We just want to buy some cumin."
"Cumin? What's that?" The man wondered, "What I have in my hand is cumin."
"Kuming?" Tang Shou was only stunned for a moment, then he knew that Curan might be the name here. "Kuming is also fine, can you show us, if it is really what we are looking for, we are willing to pay money to buy it all."
