Chapter Eighty-Eight: Buying a Pot
After eating, Ye Zhi paid the silver money casually, and said, "Let's go, let's go shopping." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Mu Yun glanced at Ye Zhi, didn't say anything, and followed behind Ye Zhi to buy something.
Ye Zhi went to the grain store first, bought fifty copper plate bud grain noodles, and bought two catties of millet, millet is much more expensive than bud grain noodles, but this family can't always eat bud grain noodles.
Mu Yun followed behind Ye Zhi, silently carrying things.
Ye Zhi thought about it and went to the place where the pot was sold again.
"How much is this pot?" Ye Zhi took a fancy to a black cast iron pot.
The pot seller glanced at Ye Zhi, and then said, "A hundred copper plates." ”
Ye Zhi was taken aback when she heard this price.
This is a pot, it's so expensive!
But this time...... Can you not buy it? Of course you can't buy it!
Although Ye Zhi wants to buy food and clothing, this pot is a must, if there is no pot, if you make bamboo shoots at home, you have to use that medicine jar to cook, which is too cumbersome and troublesome.
In order to make more money, Ye Zhi could only grit her teeth and buy a pot at this time.
"Can it be cheaper?" asked Ye Zhi.
The shopkeeper of the grocery store glanced at Ye Zhi: "If you don't buy it, leave quickly!
Ye Zhi looked at Mu Yun, she really didn't know much about this market, and she was a little worried that she would be treated as a big wrong.
Mu Yun bowed slightly, meaning that he could buy it.
Ye Zhi glanced at it, and at a glance, she saw that there were a few clay pots that were not good at the door of the grocery store, and they were burned out......
She blinked her eyes and asked, "Shopkeeper, I want this pot, can you give me some head?"
When Ye Zhi said this, she saw that the shopkeeper's face was not good-looking, and immediately continued: "I don't want anything else from you, I want these clay pots at your door." ”
The shopkeeper glanced at Ye Zhi, and then looked at the jars that I don't know how long they had been put away, obviously they couldn't sell them, and they were about to throw them away, and said, "Cheng!"
Ye Zhi immediately paid with a smile and let Mu Yun carry the pot, as for herself, she hugged three jars.
She looked at the remaining two jars a little unwillingly, and asked for a little rope from the shopkeeper to tie them around the edge, and hung them on her shoulders.
This pottery thing is not light, Ye Zhi suddenly felt that she was tired and bent over.
Mu Yun was willing to help Ye Zhi at this time, but he was carrying the pot, this was a big object, and it was really inconvenient to carry those things to eat.
Ye Zhi bought these things and walked outside.
When passing by the butcher shop, Ye Zhi paused and asked, "How do you sell this kind of fat and thin meat?"
"Eleven copper plates a pound. "The butcher who sells meat, seeing that Ye Zhi and Mu Yun are carrying so many things, can be regarded as enthusiastic, and thinks that the two of them should buy meat.
Ye Zhi thought about it, so she bought a pound of meat, put the meat in the jar, and continued to walk out.
This time she's really not gluttonous!
She bought meat for a reason, this is a new pot! It has to be boiled with lard, if you don't go through such a step, it will rust in the pot, if it rusts in the pot, it will not taste good at anything, and it will spoil quickly!
She is willing to buy a pot now, and there is no need to deduct this pound of meat.
What's more, in addition to boiling the pot with a little meat skin, the remaining meat can still be boiled and eaten.
At this point, Ye Zhi still wants to buy something, but she is also a little weak.
When she insisted on reaching the exit of the town, Ye Zhi felt that her whole person was going to be abolished, and she really didn't want to leave a step!
But at this time, she was reluctant to give up these jars.
She suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears, if she could be ruthless, she would not have worked so hard at that time to take less advantage and take two jars less.
Mu Yun paused, looked at Ye Zhi and said, "I'm a little tired, let's go back by car." ”
Ye Zhi's eyes lit up when she heard this: "This is what you said!"
Ye Zhi thought that Mu Yun, who was dead-eyed, would really ask to go back!
She was still hesitating just now, whether to tell Mu Yun to go back by car, and now that Mu Yun has taken the initiative to talk about it, where does she have any reason to disagree?
The two of them waited here for a while, and then they saw the blind old man of Ancun driving the ox cart out.
When he saw Ye Zhi and Mu Yun, he casually greeted: "Are you going back to the village, do you want to take a car?"
Ye Zhi hurriedly nodded like garlic: "Sit! Sit!"
If you really let her go back, she will definitely die of exhaustion halfway through.
The blind old man just said hello, probably just a habit, when he saw the people in his village, he would shout a greeting business, he really didn't expect Ye Zhi to take the car, he stopped the ox cart and said, "Then hurry up!"
There were already two people on the cart, and there were a few cloth bags on it, which looked quite heavy, and I don't know what was inside.
The reason why the blind old man went back at this time was to send the people in the car.
There were not many people in the car, Ye Zhi and Mu Yun put things on, and they were quite spacious.
Ye Zhi gave the money, and sat in the car and looked at the people in the car -- if she didn't give money, she wouldn't sit steadily! Anyway, sooner or later, why let the blind old man worry about it?
Sitting in the car were a young couple, probably less than thirty years old.
The male is very square, with a Chinese face, and looks more upright.
The woman's appearance is plain and impermanent, but it gives people a more shrewd feeling.
Mu Yun whispered: "This is Brother He Changshun, and the sister-in-law of the He family, Zhou." ”
He Changshun glanced at Mu Yun, took the initiative to smile, and said, "Mu Yun, you didn't buy anything this time?"
Zhou pulled He Changshun, which meant that He Changshun should not ask more.
He Changshun's face brought a hint of embarrassment, he just talked a lot, it was really not gossip, but a simple question.
When Mu Yun faced He Changshun, he was quite polite, with a slight smile on his face: "It's just some household things, these jars are all given by people, and they are worthless." ”
Ye Zhi was fiddling with the jars at this time.
These jars are not very round, but they are not broken, and they can hold things inside.
For the poor and white Mu family, these unsightly defective pottery jars are also good things.
After a few days, she bought some salt, and she could pickle some salt bamboo shoots and sour bamboo shoots......
After all, this fresh bamboo shoot can only be sold for one spring, and even if it sells well, it will not be sold in summer.
