Chapter 1877 (1/2)
The hunting team is divided into three teams and goes out once in ten days. But it's only temporary. The three teams will go out together when the weather gets cold.
Under the propaganda of Nika and others, the arrows in Nitti's hands were publicized as weapons of war. So Nico went hunting with his team and wanted to borrow his bow and arrow.
For a simple reason, Nico was not familiar with the bow and arrow. You can't use weapons skillfully, even if the bow and arrow are no better. Moreover, he didn't think this set of bows was very powerful.
After hearing his explanation, Nico thought that Nitti had made sense, and then he dismissed the idea. He didn't tell anyone about it.
But when Nissan came to borrow the bow and arrow, he told the villagers that NiTi was mean and hid the good things.
As a result, this word reached nitier, who went straight to Nissan's house and beat him up. But after that, he told his family that he would go hunting instead of Nissan.
The people in Nissan's family have nothing more to say.
In an instant, it was October, and the day when the villagers went out to market. But this time it's not the same as before, because we need to buy a lot of salt, so this time it's divided into three groups.
Qi Xuan followed him to the town. He met Suki and told him to replace the gold necklace with paper, brush and paint.
After hearing this, Suki looked at him and said, ”there is paper for sale in the town, but there is no brush or paint you said.”
Qixuan is a fool. Don't think about it. In such a poor place, you can't even read books. Who will learn to draw.
”Even if there are these things in the county, they will be very expensive,” said suchi. I'm afraid you can't buy so many things for these few liang of silver. ” Although he didn't see paintbrush and paint, they didn't sell in the town. Think about the price.
Qixuan often uses a paintbrush and the best ivory. It's carved by the best craftsman. It's worth several hundred liang of silver. He is very precious to this brush. And the paintbrush used in ordinary days can also be used for ordinary people's daily life for several months. It's only two or three liang of silver. You can't afford a paintbrush. Paint and rice paper, let alone.
After hesitating for a long time, Qixuan finally gave up buying paintbrush, but bought 16 Jin of cotton and other necessities. In addition, I bought 20 jin more salt than expected.
It's the peak of the hunt. All the meat that can't be eaten should be salted. This is also the reason why the village comes to the town three times for purchasing.
This time, Qixuan also picked up more than one hundred and twenty Jin of things to go back. Fortunately, after this period of exercise, we can also keep up with everyone's pace.
Back home, Qixuan was so tired that he didn't want to move, so he went straight to bed.
When I woke up, aunt Dou had already prepared the meal and waited for him to come.
This time, the dishes are very rich, including stir fried beans, stir fried potato, braised pork, and an egg and wild vegetable soup.
Qixuan asked, ”where are the eggs from? Did the village head's family give them?”
Aunt Dou nodded and said, ”sister Yijia gave me two eggs.” Now it's cold. She's going to hold a nest of chickens next spring.
Qixuan nodded his head and didn't speak.
After dinner, aunt Dou asked, ”don't you mean to buy a paintbrush and paint? Why didn't I see what I just packed? ”
Qi Xuan said with a kind voice: ”there is no such thing in the town. I have to go to the county seat. Suki said these things are very expensive, three Liang silver can't even afford a paintbrush. ” The longer he stayed in AGA village, the deeper he realized how extravagant he had been before.
Aunt Dou said, ”if we don't have a brush, we can make it by ourselves. If we don't have paper, we can draw on the ground.”. Without paint, we went to the mountain to pick flowers and dye them with juice. ”
Qixuan heard a smile and didn't say anything more. Layman, also just say such childish words. There is at most one outline drawn on the ground. But this painting, which can see a contour. But he didn't tell Aunt Dou about it. Every line is like every mountain, let alone aunt Dou, who doesn't even know a word.
”I want to make paintings and sell them for money. How can I sell them on the ground?” This is a euphemism.
”Aunt Dou looked a meal, turned to smile and said:” we do not worry about food and clothing now, it does not matter if we can not sell money In fact, before, she couldn't understand many words of Qixuan. And this is the gap.
Now I'm busy making a living without a moment's rest. Naturally, I don't think of anything else. Wait for winter nothing, let him stay in nest all the time do nothing, which can stay.
Qixuan sighed and said, ”let's go step by step.” I can't help it. When I draw on the ground in winter, I'll be practicing my basic skills.
After a few days' rest, Qixuan followed nig and Nitti up the mountain to hunt. After walking for two days, I only saw the robes of Swertia deer and the small animals like pheasant and hare. I didn't even see a boar.
The next morning, no prey was seen. When nigh saw that everyone was tired, he said, ”sit down and have a rest.” This time, I'm afraid it will be useless.
Just as we were eating dry food, we suddenly heard a roar. Nika cried excitedly, ”it's a big bug. Big brother, it's the roar of big insects. ” If they can hunt big insects, they will have a good year.
Nigh's face changed. ”Shut up.” Such a loud cry may attract the big insects.
Nika can't speak any more.
As a novice, Qixuan can only stand by and listen, and has no right to speak for the time being.
