Chapter 0416 singing double reeds, killing pigs
Sitting upright, looking at Luo Cheng, "Brother Luo Cheng, I have a plan to help Hu Laoqi return the land and rescue the villagers, and also knock Mu Xuan down."
Luo Cheng frowned slightly, "Good lady, you just reminded me not to have conflicts with Mu Xuan, why do you want to hit him again?"
Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "No direct conflict or knocking are two different things."
Luo Cheng was confused by her, "Tell me, let me see."
Li Jiaoni blinked and smiled, "Where are we, we pretended to be here to buy New Year pigs. I wonder if Hu Laoqi caught Mu Xuan and met a peacemaker by chance."
Luo Cheng suddenly realized.
He pinched Li Jiaoniang's nose and said, "Cunning."
"How can I be cunning? Facing those treacherous people like Mu Xuan, my cunning is a witch." Li Jiaoniang disagreed.
Wuzi held a small jar and ran into the main hall with a smile.
"I brought the candy. This is the candy my third uncle gave me yesterday. I haven't eaten it yet." Wuzi put a jar as big as a bowl on the table and said with a smile.
Li Jiaoniang uncovered the lid and smelled it, "It's sugar, it's so fragrant."
Some of the sucrose sold during this period will be added to the sugar shop, which is sweet and fragrant.
People eat sugar not as seasonings, but as supplements.
Because the sugar making technology is complicated, the sugar on the market is not as popular as it is in modern times, and the price is relatively expensive, several times more expensive than that of modern times.
Wuzi found another small bowl and poured some sugar into the bowl.
On this side, Luo Cheng picked up the small wooden stick and picked out the three taros that were buried first from the fire.
Li Jiaoni couldn't wait, and reached out to press it, "Soft and mature. Come on, one for each person."
Wuzi smiled and said, "Then I'm welcome."
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.
She pinched the taro and wanted to peel it, but was snatched by Luo Cheng.
"I can peel it myself." Li Jiaoniang was speechless.
"Aren't you afraid of being hot?" Luo Cheng raised his eyebrows.
Li Jiaoni laughed, she thought Luo Cheng wanted to steal her food.
"So hot." Wuzi, who was no one felt sorry for, happily shook his taro with his robe.
"I'm so anxious that I can't eat hot taro, let it cool down before eating." Luo Cheng said lightly.
Wuzi laughed, "I'll let it cool down before eating."
Luo Cheng peeled off a taro, blew it, and sent it to Li Jiaoniang's hand, "It's not hot anymore."
"Thank you, Brother Luo Cheng." Li Jiaoniang smiled and took it in her hand and started eating.
Outside the house, Hu Laoqi laughed loudly and said, "Official Luo, Mrs. Li, I found out that several families want to sell pigs, and the prices are the same. It depends on which pig you choose, and I will ask someone to tie it up."
Luo Cheng patted the taro scalp on his robe, stood up and walked out.
Li Jiaoni also got up and followed.
Mu Xuan, who was tied to a chair in the empty room, whose eyes were narrowed slightly, Guanren Luo, Madam Li?
Why are they here? They are in the same group as the ones who kidnapped him?
Li Peiyu was also surprised, what? Li Jiaoniang was with the kidnappers?
She can't spare Li Jiaoni!
"Pick one of them, it's a good pig that's jumping around." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile, "If the pig is good, after I go back to the city, I will ask which one wants to buy pork. The introducer will come and buy it."
The Lu family should buy New Year pigs, and they will definitely want them in the tavern opposite the clinic.
Hu Laoqi was overjoyed, "Oh, if Miss Li helped introduce the buyer, then she would be the nobles of those families."
"Hey, I'll talk about the noble or not. It's too early to flatter me first." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

Hu Laoqi smiled and said, "It's the same, haha, by the way, Guanren Luo, Miss Li, you say you can pick one of it casually, then I'll pick the one closest to my house and drive one over. It's snowing, it's inconvenient to drive a pig that is too far away."
"Okay, you can make an idea." Li Jiaoni said generously.
Hu Laoqi waved at them and wanted to drive the pig.
But Li Jiaoni waved to him and signaled him to enter the room and talk.
Hu Laoqi was smart, blinking, and without saying a word, and followed him into the house.
Luo Cheng looked at the empty house and followed him into the house.
Wuzi has always been an obedient child. When he did not ask for instructions, he would sit quietly, but ask about Hu Laoqi's affairs.
Li Jiaoniang walked to the back door and then said in a low voice, "Hu Laoqi, I just discussed a plan with my official. Do you think it is feasible?"
Hu Laoqi bowed to her and said, "Please speak with Madam Li."
"Let's play and sing a double act." Li Jiaoniang whispered.
Hu Laoqi couldn't understand and blinked and asked, "What is a double act?"
Li Jiaoniang thought to herself, is this another modern word? She said, "It's very simple. Brother Luo Cheng and I are red-faced, you are black-faced. We pretended to pass by here, just to buy New Year pigs. We met Mu Xuan by chance. Then, I am a peacemaker and we will negotiate with you terms."
As soon as Li Jiaoniang explained, Hu Laoqi immediately understood.
"I, Hu Laoqi, are the best at this kind of thing." Hu Laoqi smiled, "Miss Li, a good idea."
Li Jiaoniang said, "It's too early to implement the plan now. Let's lock them up for a while and make them afraid and cooperate honestly."
