Chapter Twenty-Nine: Your Last Name is Dai?
Old man Sun, who was smoking dry cigarettes, nodded when he heard the words and said: "Grandfather knows, Xiangen has the heart to let you come back and talk about it, and I will let your father quietly buy grain when I go back, and you don't make a noise so as not to cause trouble." You take this......" Old Man Sun took out a string of copper plates from under the pillow and handed it to Sun.
Sun knew that the family's money was in her father's hands, and her grandfather only had a few copper plates at most, so how could Sun ask for it, if it was known by a few younger siblings, I was afraid that my grandfather would no longer be able to suppress them.
"These are not given by others, they are all the filial piety money that you and Hsien Geen gave to your grandfather in the past, so let's use it to buy more food...... Grandfather has no ability, can't help you anything......" Old man Sun spit out a puff of smoke rings, the smoke rings flickered and scattered in front of his eyes, and the old man who had experienced the vicissitudes of life looked at his eldest granddaughter through the smoke, alas, this child has paid too much for the family, but who called her the eldest daughter.
The Sun family was carrying the string of copper plates in his sleeve, and his heart was extremely heavy, to be honest, the Sun family had a large population, and in a famine or disaster year, life was even more difficult than the Dai family.
Maybe Zhong didn't want to go, and he didn't stuff a few copper plates for Sun, but Sun didn't ask for it, so he pushed her mother away and walked out of Sun's house, before leaving Sun's house, Jiao rushed out of the house and stared at Sun's cuffs silently, and Sun's guilt disappeared in an instant.
After returning to his home, Sun didn't mention anything about his mother's family, but he was in a trance all afternoon.
Dai Xiangen didn't know what happened when Sun returned to his parents' home, but he could feel Sun's abnormality, he couldn't do anything, he could only explain in detail how to go to the county seat over and over again, Sun's strong spirit remembered Dai Xiangen's words, Dai Shuanglin also sketched a walking route in her mind, she had never been to the county seat so she remembered to be extra attentive.
On the second day, before the rooster crowed, Dai Shuanglin got up.
When Sun came to call her, Dai Shuanglin's hair had already been combed, and after eating Dai Shuanghong's hot leftovers, the two set off with their burdens, wearing stars and moons to drive thirty miles, a woman and a half-grown child had to walk for more than half a day, and the task was heavy and long.
Turning from North Street to South Street is the way to the county seat, Sun once accompanied Dai Xiangen to the county seat to see a doctor, but at that time Sun Dawen was with him, and now she let her take her little girl on foot, and the apprehension in her heart can be imagined.
Passing by the Gu family's door, the Sun family looked at Dai Shuanglin and looked at the Gu family several times, and couldn't help but reach out and pull Dai Shuanglin forward, and muttered: "Don't look at it, my mother asked, Brother Min'er can't come back for the time being, Brother Min'er's leg is afraid that it will be useless, and your aunt is looking for someone to sell land." ”
"I know" Dai Shuanglin nodded gloomily, the Gu family is actually about the same as the previous Dai family, if you want to say that you are not hungry, but you usually have to live a frugal life, if you want to spend a lot of money to treat your illness, you will definitely break your muscles and bones.
Because of this, these days the Gu family is in chaos, Xiao Chen cries every day, abducting the Chen family's uncle also came to make trouble, Chen was troubled by his mother's family while remembering the youngest son of Fucheng, and he had to sell land according to the will of his own man, and he was haggard for a while, and when he saw Sun's that day, Chen's tears fell, and it seemed that it was Sun who really cared about her, and he was better than his brothers and sisters.
The two of them hurried all the way without saying anything, and did not reach the Mashan Pass until ten o'clock at dawn, and there were no people on the road before and after, and Sun said to sit down and rest for a while.
The wolf howl in the mountains came, and Dai Shuanglin was so frightened that he leaned towards Sun's side, and Sun was also afraid, and faintly regretted taking Sister Lin out.
When Dai Shuanglin and Sun arrived at the county embroidery shop, it was almost time, Sun opened the baggage, one of the bags was folded neatly and neatly embroidered, and the other was full of various insoles.
Although the proprietress knew Sun, she also wondered: "Why did you come by yourself?" Where's your big brother? ”
"He can't come today because he has something to do, and he is anxious to wait for the money, so I came by myself, and I ask you to check one or two......" Sun rarely stammered people, but now he has to put down his body, for fear of being said by Jiao, people only recognize Sun Dawen and not her.
The proprietress of the embroidery shop did not know Sun's worries, and after careful inspection, she calculated the money for Sun according to the number of pieces, and saw Sun's surprised expression after getting the money, so she explained: "The embroidery work you sent later is not the same, there are good and bad, I will give the good one according to the high price, and the low one will be calculated according to the usual, na, this is good, and the price will be high." ”
What does Sun want to do with this?
She was shocked by the silver in her hand, when she came to the county embroidery shop with embroidery work, the proprietress saw her work and gave a price, and then, she got the hand has always been that price, where would she have thought that the price of Sister Hong's embroidery will not be as high as hers.
It's not good to say to outsiders about their own ugly things, Sun's thousands of thanks for holding the fabric out of the embroidery shop, Dai Shuanglin behind him grinding, step by step, Sun looked at it and said: "It's really said by you, you can buy a lot of food, go, my mother will buy you a big meat bun, hard work for our sister Lin." ”
Hmph, Dai Shuanglin's saliva was overflowing, but she couldn't help but shake her head and said: "I don't eat it, use the money of a big meat bun to add more, we can wrap a bun ourselves, the meat is vegetarian anyway." ”
The haze in Sun's heart was swept away, and there was a smile on his face, Sister Lin will plan, she will definitely not worry about the future, that is, Sister Hong, with this craft, she will not be afraid of hunger in the future.
I don't know what the scene was in front of the food shop in the past, but today the shop is almost overcrowded, and Dai Shuanglin and Sun can't squeeze in, so they can only wait outside to do it in a hurry. Seeing other people's bags of flour coming out, Sun was anxious and muttered, "What can I do?" It seems that what the child's father said is true, the grain store did not have such a good business before.
Dai Shuanglin was also anxious, the store was full of men piled up inside, she and Sun were useless even if they squeezed in, looked left and right, Dai Shuanglin saw that there was a little two at the door of the grain store to maintain order, so she pulled Sun to the direction of Xiao Er, and said a few words to Xiao Er while people were not paying attention, Xiao Er was not happy at first, Sun added, Xiao Er's eyes finally lit up, and immediately took the mother and daughter into the back alley and entered the grain shop through the back door.
"Stinky boy, don't look ahead, what are you doing in the back?" Seeing the three of them enter the door, the person who was directing the grain in the backyard frowned.
"Second housekeeper, this is my country aunt, it's inconvenient for all men in front of me, by the way, it's not to buy!" Xiao Er talked to the owner, and Sun and Dai Shuanglin were instructed in advance, so they were silent.
When the man heard whether to buy or not to change, his face softened slightly, and he waved his hand to let Xiao Er take Sun's mother and daughter to weigh the grain, as for whether it was a real aunt or a fake aunt, he didn't care.
In recent years, most of the grain stores have exchanged the first and second noodles for three noodles, and few have directly used money to buy grain, unless there is no food at home in spring and winter.
After the grain was bought, Xiao Er left with the two copper plates given by Sun and left satisfied, Sun saw that there was a lot of food, so he let Dai Shuanglin look at it, and she went to find the ox cart.
Dai Shuanglin was doing nothing, when he saw a splendid little boy walking into the alley, the little boy was followed by a handsome little entourage, when the two shook their fans and passed by Dai Shuanglin, the little entourage wrinkled his nose and fanned the wind very disgusted, but the little boy walked calmly, but suddenly turned around before entering the door, and said to Dai Shuanglin without warning: "Your surname is Dai?" The second girl of the Dai family? ”
