Chapter 201 Residence

Unknowingly, on the way to Yue Liao, the Meibei family passed from summer to autumn.

Autumn comes early in Yanzhou.

At the beginning of August, the land was dry and yellow.

Mayberry and the others spent an entire midsummer in poverty and floods;

As the wind coming out from the north gradually brought a chill;

As you get closer and closer to Liao, there are more fields around you;

The surrounding colors have also faded from the midsummer green, and gradually turned into the unique harvest yellow of autumn.

When they arrived outside Yue Liao City, Mei Pei got out of the car and lifted up her silk hat. She looked up at the tall khaki city wall and couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

This towering city wall standing deep in the grassland is no less imposing than Yunzhou Fucheng.

Looking at the patrolling soldiers on top of the city, Mei Berry didn't know why she felt so safe.

It seems like this is what soldiers should do.

On the contrary, it is crazy people like Chen Yuan and the soldiers under him who bring fear to people, which is the strange existence.

After entering the city, compared with the tall and thick city walls outside the city, Yueliao County is indeed very "simple" inside.

The entire county is covered in earthy yellow.

It is no exaggeration to say that in Yueliao County, not to mention the capital city of Yunzhou, Meibei is much worse than Jinbai County.

Although the system also explained to Meiberry that the gray-yellow mud houses in the county were made of stone on the inside, but they were just painted with an extra layer of adobe on the outside.

Winter is very cold in Yunzhou, let alone Yanzhou further north.

Therefore, the walls of the houses built by the people here are basically multi-layered and very thick.

The market here is not too big. After taking a closer look at the products sold, Meiberry found that they were about the same level as those in Lihu Town before.

This is difficult to comment on.

Yue Liao is said to be an important county in Yanzhou, so why does it look so ordinary?

But compared to plum berries, Mei Youqian likes this simple taste very much.

"I just listened to the cries of the meat sellers here. The high-quality mutton costs more than ten yuan per pound, which is more than one-third lower than the price in Yunzhou. After I go back and settle down, I will buy some mutton...

"

From the moment he entered the city, Mei Youqian could be said to have listened in all directions and looked in all directions. Finally, he opened his mouth and thought about what to eat tonight.

As he spoke, he turned to look at his wife, laughing non-stop.

Wei Meili rolled her eyes at him angrily, and then said: "Buy some more so that we can all get together in the evening. Those who have been sleeping in the open recently need to make up for themselves."

As she said that, Wei Meili turned her head and stared at Mei Bei's small body again, as if the meat she had raised earlier was gone again.

Just when Mei Youqian was talking about eating, Mei Bei looked at Mr. Xue on the side, eavesdropping with his ears raised. Compared to him, the look in Tian Qi's bright eyes had already betrayed Mr. Xue.

Mayberry couldn't help laughing.

"Would you like to eat the pot?"

Mei Qian raises his hand, Yanzhou becomes very dry after autumn, and mutton is most suitable for nourishing in autumn and winter.

Shopkeeper Ma looked at the relaxed atmosphere of Mei Qi and others and naturally did not disturb them.

The residential areas in Yue Liao are also very interesting. The closer they are to the Outer City and Wengcheng, the larger the area occupied by each household is.

You said it would be fine if they were rich, but looking at those shabby houses, you can't tell how rich they are.

Meiberry curiously asked about the situation there, and shopkeeper Ma explained that there were actually more herdsmen there.

They have little time to enter the city throughout the year, but in winter they have to herd sheep and horses back to the city.

This is a little more restrictive than the herdsmen on the grassland who can do whatever they want.

But that’s fine too.

At least, mutton is cheap.

Just as Mayberry and the others saw when they entered the city,

The house that Mei Berry and his three families lived in this time was a row of small flat-top mud houses with yards.

The name Flathead Tsuchiya was given by Meiberry.

Just like the houses Mayberry saw earlier, there was no way to hide from the yellow adobe on the outside of the house they lived in.

The four houses are side by side and upright, similar to the one their family lived in Jinshui Village.

The structure of the house is also very clear, including the kitchen, main room, and two bedrooms.

The only difference was the flat roof. Mayberry stood in the relatively spacious yard and took a look. There was a ladder beside the wall. It seemed that the roof could be climbed up.

Okay, she thinks it's pretty good.

Standing in the yard, Mei Berry looked with satisfaction at the two horses gifted by Jiubaoxuan that were grazing leisurely in the stables in the yard, as well as the mules next door who were still snorting at the horses.

Mayberry couldn't help but laugh.

The mule cub is taller than the horse in the sour family.

The fighting chicken is now completely unwilling to live in the chicken coop, and wanders around the yard like a king patrolling his territory.

Fat Tiger paid no attention to anyone, lying on the roof enjoying the sun spa.

The leisurely and carefree life of our few little animals is completely different from the busy schedule of their family of three.

"Berry! Have you cleaned up the outside?"

"Ah, right away."

After her mother called her back to her senses, Mayberry picked up a broom and started sweeping the floor.

Yue Liao is not only dry, but also very windy and sandy.

Meiberry and the others don't know when Jiubaoxuan built this house, but because the windows were not closed, there was a lot of sand and soil on the floor, not to mention the yard.

Mei Mei's yard is in the middle, and next door is Mei You's house and Mr. Xue's house.

Mei You's family, Mei Bei, is not worried, but Mr. Xue is. How can he clean the house at such a young age as Tian Qi?

Meiberry was worried, but the movement from next door clearly told Meiberry that she was overthinking.

Given Mr. Xue’s status, how could Jiubaoxuan ignore Mr. Xue?

"Ah, where did you find this shelf? There's so much dirt on it. Clean it up quickly and add some baskets later.

Ah, and in the house, my old bones can't do any work. Tian Qi is still young and not as tall as any of you... Hurry up, otherwise how can I rest at night?

If I'm in a bad mood, I won't give you any medicine during this period."

Meiberry took a broom and sneaked to the next door to take a look. It was very good. Inside were the guys from Jiubaoxuan who were working diligently.

Those five and three thick men, with fists as big as casseroles, could only pick up rags, and brooms, which made Meiberry call him a good guy!

Meiberry couldn't help but feel pity for these people.

But then she thought about it, Mr. Xue was a doctor-level figure with excellent medical skills. In addition, what Jiubaoxuan was doing behind the scenes seemed quite dangerous. If you thought that the medical boss was in charge, then Jiubaoxuan was indeed

It must be provided well.

By the way, share the firepower with her family.

Mr. Xue's venomous tongue is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

During the past few days on the carriage, Mr. Xue actually chatted with her mother about her teaching issues, asking her to behave herself.

Then, with the temperament of her parents and her father's lack of restraint, Old Man Xue was so angry that he chased her father and scolded her.

The scene of "Dad walking around the car" should not be repeated too often.

When Mei You met, he only said that Mr.

He didn't have time to think about it when he had something to do. Just like now, Mei Mei prayed that Jiubaoxuan would let Mr. Xue do the medicine every day.

After Mei Bei's house was cleaned, Mei Bei followed Mei Youqian to the market to buy vegetables and meat.

The climate in Yue Liao is very dry and windy and sandy.

When I was cleaning at home just now, Mei Youqian cultivated a small vegetable patch in the backyard. If Mei Mei didn't have spring water at home, I don't know how many buckets of water I would have to carry to water the ground thoroughly.

So when he went to the market, Mei Youqian not only wanted to buy meat, but also some vegetables.

There are still relatively few types of fresh vegetables here, just cabbage and radish, but to Meiberry's surprise, there are sellers of dried vegetables here, including many dried mushrooms.

When Mei Bei asked about it, she learned that there were still people here who went out of the city to pick mushrooms on the rolling Cangshan Mountain to the east.

The key point is that the main mushrooms on Cangshan Mountain are non-toxic fungus and hazel mushrooms.

It's probably the kind that Meiyou won't find poisonous ones even if he closes his eyes.

After Meiberry told the news, Meiberry specifically told Mei You about it when the three families were eating mutton pot at Meiberry's house in the evening.
