Xia Zhi asked Sun Lan'er what she wanted to buy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It was the first time for Sun Lan'er to visit such a large grocery store, and she felt fresh when she saw everything. However, when Xia Zhi asked her what she wanted to buy, she shook her head and said that she didn't need to buy anything.

Even if she buys something and goes home, I'm afraid it won't be her turn to use it.

"Sixteen, you don't care if I embroidered the purse or you embroidered it yourself, the money from the sale belongs to you. Buy whatever you like. Sun Lan'er said to Xia Zhi sincerely.

It's not the first time she's said this.

Xia Zhi smiled, and she was not polite to Sun Lan'er. She knew Sun Lan'er's concerns, and at the same time, she also knew that with Sun Lan'er's experience, I am afraid that she would not be able to learn to make her own decisions in the short term.

Then take your time, she will be the master for Sun Lan'er first.

When Xia Solstice asked Xiao Shu'er and Xiao Heiyu'er again, the two children also shook their heads. They all said that there was nothing to buy, and Xia Solstice was amused.

Little Black Fish and Little Tree didn't have anything to buy, just that there was nothing they wanted to buy in this grocery store. They want to go to the market to buy something to eat.

"Okay, then let's go to the market!" Xia Zhi said with a smile.

The children left the grocery store on their way to the market. At this time, it is the busiest time of the bazaar. The summer solstice held the little black fish, and the little black fish held the big green.

"Don't run around, get lost again!" Xia Zhi instructed Xiao Shu'er again.

"I looked at the little tree. Sun Lan'er said immediately, and then took Xiao Shu'er's hand.

Layue doesn't need to be told, she follows wherever she goes on the summer solstice.

Because I thought about buying some fruits, I went to the fruit market first on the summer solstice. There aren't many fruits on the market now, and in a month's time, it will be the peak season for all kinds of fruits. Xia Zhi looked around, and stopped when he saw that there were plums for sale. She had eaten Fu plum in the backing mountain, although it did not have the strong taste of autumn plums, but it was also delicious.

Xia Zhi let the little black fish taste it first, and seeing that the little black fish liked it, she took out the money and bought half a basket.

"Take it back to my grandfather and grandmother, as well as the third uncle and three aunts, and the big guys will try it. Xia Zhi said so, and then, she bought a few more melons, which happened to fill a basket.

This basket of things is not light, Sun Lan'er is the oldest and the most powerful, so she rushed to lift the basket.

After coming out of the fruit market, Xia Zhi went to the omnivorous stall to buy some pine nut candy, hazelnuts, walnuts, fried peanuts, etc., these candies are the usual snacks of several children. Then, at Xiao Shu'er's request, she bought a pound of Jiang rice noodles at another stall selling snacks.

The noodles are deep-fried and coated in fine powdered sugar, which is sweet, fragrant and crispy, and is of course very popular with children.

When Xiao Shu'er was pampered by the Tian family, she could only ask the Tian family to buy her one, two, two or two at most. Xia Solstice is so generous, which makes Xiao Shu'er more and more determined to follow her sister's heart.

His sister is stronger than his mother, isn't it a little bit.

After walking around like this, I just walked to the edge of the riverbank. Wooden tables and benches have been fenced off with straw, but they are makeshift eateries in the market.

Xia Zhi took these children into the house, and then sat around a table. What she meant, after walking around, everyone just took a break, ate something to fill their stomachs, and drank some water to moisten their throats.

"Sixteen, that's expensive. "It's the first time for Sun Lan'er to eat outside, here she is the oldest, but she is also the most nervous.

"It's not expensive, Sister Lanzi, don't worry, our money is enough. Xia Zhi said this, and asked for two meat buns for each person. Then she called the children who sold the water and bought a bowl of water for each of them.

In the middle of summer, you will get thirsty if you walk around the market. I don't know who was the first to come up with this idea, but some children came up with cold water in pairs to sell. The water they sell must have been brought up fresh from the well, it was very cool, and they would add some sugar to the water. This kind of water is cool and has a sweet taste, which can be said to be very cool and thirst-quenching.

The children who sell water at the market are not very old, that is, the age of the little black fish and the little tree.

Xiao Shu'er drank water and ate steamed buns to his heart's content. Because he saw that the children who sold water were about the same age as him, he was very emotional.

"If I lived in town, I would sell water. ”

The little black fish looked at the back of the water seller, and raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Xiao Shu'er's words. He was going to say this, but Xiao Shu'er took the lead.

"How much money can I make selling water, I and Sixteen, but I can earn a lot more than this. The little black fish snorted and said a little arrogantly.

"Uncle and my sister must be more capable than me, hehe, hehe. Xiao Shu'er immediately said flatteringly. This little guy is very honest in front of the little black fish, the little black fish said that he didn't dare to say the west, and he didn't dare to steal the limelight of the little black fish.

The little black fish snorted, glanced at the little tree's dog-legged appearance, and suddenly felt much more comfortable.

After eating and drinking, Xia Zhi continued to take a few children to the market, and naturally bought some things in a piecemeal manner, and then walked to the stall selling meat.

Xia Zhi remembered what Tian said that the oil at home was running out. When Tian said oil, he naturally meant lard, that is, meat oil. In this era, Zhuang households generally used meat oil, and they were more frugal. A family buys a fan of oil and boils out the oil, which is about enough for a year.

As for vegetable oil, because it is more expensive, they use very little. This is a little bit of a bit that I don't get used to after coming here on the summer solstice. But she also understands this habit.

On the one hand, lard is cheaper, on the other hand, everyone eats more vegetarian in this era, and eating more lard is only good for the body. And I have to say that the lard boiled vegetables are fragrant.

Even in the era before the summer solstice, many people would secretly add lard to the dish in order to make it more fragrant. Although this is not very healthy, after all, at that time, there was an abundance of materials, and everyone was a little overnourished.

In this era, there is no need to worry about overnutrition.

Xia Zhi thought about it, so he bought a fan of oil from the butcher. "Go back and boil the oil, the oil residue is just to make dumplings. ”

Hearing Xia Solstice say making dumplings, the little black fish's eyes suddenly lit up, and the little tree cheered even more.

"Sister, I haven't eaten dumplings after the New Year. After Xiao Shu'er cheered, he said to Xia Zhi with some grievances.

Their family's life is far more than that, it is because the Tian family wants to save money for their mother's family, so they will live a tight life. Xia Solstice snorted on the little black fish's head.

"When the new wheat comes down and grinds the noodles, my sister will make you a few more dumplings. ”

"My sister is the best. The little tree immediately sang praises to the summer solstice.

"It's sweet in your mouth. "The summer solstice played the little tree again.

I bought a plate of oil, and Xia Zhi saw that today's pork fat was very good, so he bought another knife of pork belly, and planned to go back and cut the oil to eat it slowly.

Now there is no refrigerator, and she does not have ice cubes ice cellars that can replace the function of refrigerators. And after the meat slices are boiled out of oil, they can be stored for a period of time in this season, and it will definitely be fine for ten days or eight days.

At this time, everyone carried some things in their hands, even Da Qing also hung a bag under his neck.

The little black fish leaned into Xia Zhi's ear and muttered a few words.

"Sixteen, do we have enough money to bring?" Then, the little black fish asked Xia Solstice again.

"Enough. "The summer solstice reassured the little black fish, and then the little black fish and Daqing led the way, and everyone walked to the most riverside market.

There is still some distance away, and you can smell the smell of seafood from there.

There is a large piece of land near the sea under the jurisdiction of Beizhen Mansion, and Linshui Town is a big town store near the sea in Beizhen Mansion. Therefore, during the peak season, fishermen from the seaside will walk to the nearby villages to sell seafood, and on market days, there are also many fishermen's stalls here.

Of course, in addition to fishermen, there are also reselling vendors. No matter who sets up the stall, there is always seafood to buy at the waterfront market.

The name of the little black fish is Xiaolong, and everyone knows that he loves fish and shrimp very much. The little black fish ran into the seafood market first, and then beckoned to the summer solstice to let her hurry up.

Xia Zhi smiled secretly in her heart, and quickened her pace, she also loves to eat fish and shrimp.

"Sixteen, sixteen, here!" When Xia Zhi walked into the seafood market, the little black fish was standing in front of a stall and calling her.

It was a stall selling all kinds of cockles. Here in Beizhen Prefecture, all kinds of seafood with shells are called cockles. This season is the time when there are the most cockles.

The little black fish loves to eat this, and the summer solstice also loves to eat it.

I asked the stall owner about the price, and Xia Zhi asked for a discount, and then I bought a basket of cockles. Seeing that there were scallops for sale next to him, Xia Zhi picked a big one and bought some scallops.

"Sixteen, are you going to be the one we ate with Li Xia?" The little black fish couldn't help but ask in a low voice when she saw Xia Zhi buy a large scallop.

Xia Zhi smiled and nodded: "I haven't done it before, I'll try it when I go back, I'm afraid it's not as delicious as what is made in other people's restaurants." ”

"Sixteen is delicious. The little black fish immediately said, serious.

Summer solstice laughs.

The things were almost bought, and it was a little early to look at the time, so the summer solstice took everyone back slowly. Sun Lan'er was carrying the heaviest things, and Layue and Xiao Shu'er were carrying baskets of cockles and scallops.

Sun Lan'er quietly asked Xia Zhi: "Sixteen, why don't you buy something for your two cousins?"

Xia Zhi didn't think about it, so he shook his head: "What do I buy for them, I'm not a breadwinner." I bought some food for Xiaoshu'er, and when I got back, I told them to share the food with Xiaoshu'er. ”

When Xiao Shu'er heard this, she smiled.

"The two of them must be embarrassed to grab food from Xiao Shu'er. Sun Lan'er said.

"It's up to them. Xia Solstice said indifferently.

Sun Lan'er sighed slightly: "Sixteen, when we got in the car, the eldest lady I saw looked at you. "If Xia Zhi has spare money in his hand, it is best to buy something for the eldest girl and the second girl, so that Tian's face looks good, and Xia Solstice can be just a little better.

This is Sun Lan'er's kindness.

"Sister Lanzi, you don't have to worry about this matter. Xia Zhi understood Sun Lan'er's intentions, so he explained to her slightly, "My mother's body, let her take care of it herself." I'm still young, so where do I care so much? ”

Besides, if you want to buy things for the eldest girl and the second girl, there are a lot of things to buy.

The eldest girl and the second girl came to Daxingzhuang almost naked, and they still have to live until they get married, and the meaning of the Tian family is that they are still counting on Xia Xiucai and the Tian family to give the two girls a dowry.

Xia Solstice wasn't going to help them. Her money has to be spent on the people she likes.

Sun Lan'er sighed, and told Xia Zhi: "I didn't dare to say that I wanted to go to the market, but my mother heard me say that you all came to the market, so she asked me to come with me." ”

When she spoke like this, Sun Lan'er glanced at Xia Zhi.

There's a lot of content in this look.

"Sister Lanzi, what do you mean ......?"

"I always felt like she wasn't in a good mood. She asked me to come to the market, I'm afraid it was for the big ~ grandpa ~ grandma, and my aunt to see, so that you can think she is good. Besides, I think she—she seems to have something else in mind......"

Xia Zhi thought about Sun Wang's usual personality, and had a rough guess. "Other ideas, it is estimated that it is the matter of the eldest girl and the second girl. Sister Lanzi, you pay attention to me, if she says anything, you tell me. ”

"That's for sure. Sun Lan'er nodded heavily, "Sixteen, she is not a good person, nor is she a ...... Serious people. ”

The three words of a serious person Sun Lan'er said in a very light tone, and her face was dyed a faint red.

Xia Zhi suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

When I walked back, Xia Zhi bought some more things.

Because the summer was hot, the summer solstice finally bought two mats from the stall selling mats. There are two kinds of mattresses sold in the market, one is made of straw and the other is made of bamboo.

Straw mattresses are softer, but bamboo mattresses are stronger and cooler.

These two mats are enough to spread out half a room's kang, enough for two or three people to sleep.

As a result, they couldn't hold it, but the stall owner saw that they were all children, and took the initiative to help resist the two mats to the place where the baskets were sold.

Xia Lao Liu and his wife were closing the stall, and they were very surprised to see Xia Zhi's children buying so many things and coming back. Xia Lao Liu helped pick up the mat and put it in the car, and helped a few children to move other things to the car.

Xia Lao's sixth daughter-in-law asked Xia Zhi: "Sixteen, why did you buy these old things, it looks like the New Year." ”

"Not much. Xia Zhi smiled, "Sister-in-law Liu, you count, how many families are we." ”

The Xia family has already separated, and counting Sun Lan'er, it happens to be four families.

Xia Lao's sixth daughter-in-law laughed. "Sixteen, I think you bought most of these things. ”

Xia Zhi grinned and diverted the topic.

On the way back to Daxingzhuang, Xia Lao's sixth daughter-in-law asked about the eldest girl and the second girl.

"Sixteen, I heard that you~ Mother brought the two nieces and nieces with you, and now they live in your house?"

"yes. "For this topic, the summer solstice naturally does not show much eagerness.

But even if she was obviously cold, she couldn't stop the enthusiasm of Xia Lao's sixth daughter-in-law to gossip.

"That day, Uncle Xiucai and his aunt came back from the backing mountain, and many people saw it. …… Both of them are older than you, and they don't look much like you~ mother. …… Are you all married?"
