008 Enter town
As soon as the woman came, she shouted, "Oh, it's finally here." As he spoke, he pointed at Cheng Zhao'er, "Hey, aren't you the little daughter-in-law of Geng Yiyuan's family?" Why did you come out today, your mother-in-law actually let you come out? Oh, don't sit still, help me get the stuff over. Cheng Zhao'er looked at the big basket in her hand, frowned, and just wanted to refuse.
Over there, Wang Shi spoke: "Auntie, Zhao'er is holding the child in her hand, I'll help you get it." This Zhao'er has been out of confinement in the past two days, so I asked her to accompany me to the town for a walk. Buy some needlework or something. ”
Wang Guijia pouted and said, "Okay, you can take it, be careful, it's full of eggs!" ”
Another gossip came to Cheng Zhao'er's side and said, "Your kid's name is Zhao'er, tell me, how your mother-in-law usually treats you." Did I hit you? ”
Cheng Zhao'er almost wanted to jump out of the car and run, this woman smelled when she came up, and she didn't know if she came out without cleaning, even if it didn't matter, the key was that she was too gossipy. Cheng Zhao'er has no doubt that as long as she says something, she can't keep it, she hasn't come back today, and this wild crane village has spread all over the village. And it's a different version, the one with oil and vinegar.
Fortunately, she hadn't spoken yet, and Uncle Zhang had already spoken impatiently: "I said Wang Gui's family, you can't get up, you're the slowest, you see it's dawn, and you're still grinding there." ”
Wang Gui's family choked, turned her head and quarreled with Uncle Zhang again, but fortunately, she didn't have time to talk to Cheng Zhao'er. Cheng Zhao'er pulled Yuanyuan into his arms and talked to Wang.
Cheng Zhao'er looked at the ox cart, pulled by an old ox in front, and behind it was a wooden plank, with four wheels underneath, it was really the first time in his life to sit in such a car.
However, fortunately, although the car is broken, at least it is much faster than walking, and it is not tiring. It's very upside down, though!
In such a cranky thought, the ox cart swayed to Qiuhua Village, Wang's mother's village, Qiuhua Village is very close to Yehe Village, where Wang and Cheng Zhaoer are located, and it usually takes less than half an hour to walk. They both belong to the area under the jurisdiction of Shimo Town.
Wang Shi saw that Uncle Zhang had parked the ox cart at the entrance of Qiuhua Village, pulled Cheng Zhao'er and jumped out of the car, and said, "Uncle Zhang, please wait for a while, at most we will come back in an hour of incense." ”
Uncle Zhang didn't squeak, took out his dry tobacco stick and waved it, meaning that he knew. Only Wang Guijia muttered unhappily: "Hurry up, who is wrong with my morning market!" Why are you so young......"
Wang and Cheng Zhaoer didn't hear it, and hurriedly walked to Wang's mother's house. Wang's mother's house is not far from the entrance of the village, and it is only two or three families away.
When I walked into the village, I could see the house of the Wang family from a distance.
The Wang family's house is also earthen embryonic, but it occupies a large area. I heard that although Wang's eldest brother is a farmer, he has a flexible mind, and often makes small things or sells the things at home, but he has a good life. Her father usually farms at home and helps take care of the children, and his life is also very comfortable.
When I arrived at Wang's house, I only had time to say hello to everyone in the Wang family, and handed Yuanyuan to Wang's sister-in-law, who had just given birth to Wang's second nephew.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, several people rushed to the town without stopping.
Fortunately, the ox cart saved them half the time, and it only took more than an hour to arrive. After arriving, he said that he would let Uncle Zhang wait here to go home together, and Wang gave Uncle Zhang four dollars. and Wang Gui's family, who was still chattering about Wang and Cheng Zhaoer's delaying her time, parted ways!
Cheng Zhao'er looked at the bustling crowd around her, and saw that Wang's was a little distracted, so she said, "Sister-in-law, you go to see Brother Zhao first, I'll just take a look for myself." I can write down the road myself, just get to Uncle Chamber's concentration at the end of the day. ”
Wang Shi thought about it, and then took Cheng Zhaoer's hand to confirm it again and again, Cheng Zhaoer repeatedly assured that he was fine, Wang finally stuffed Cheng Zhaoer with five yuan, and told Cheng Zhaoer to buy something to eat when he was hungry, and then reluctantly left.
Cheng Zhaoer couldn't shirk it, and thought that it was really inconvenient for him to be penniless, so he accepted it.
Seeing Wang away, Cheng Zhaoer began to carefully observe this town!
This is Stone Mill Town, although it is a town. However, if you want to say that it is prosperous, it is really not enough, at least for Cheng Zhaoer, who is used to seeing prosperity in his previous life, these are really not enough.
Moreover, the whole town, the passage of the so-called main road is really narrow, the houses on the side of the road are good, no matter how old the houses are, they look very classical, so that Cheng Zhaoer has a feeling of visiting the ancient city and town, and it is a little dizzying.
At this time, it may coincide with the morning market, and the men and women have already started their activities, including big girls and little daughters-in-law who carry vegetable baskets to buy vegetables, and some who have set up breakfast stalls to sell steamed buns and noodles. There are also some vendors selling delicate and quaint small items.
The wooden doors on both sides of the street also opened one after another, and the man yawned as he opened!
Cheng Zhao'er took a closer look at their clothes and found that most of them were coarse linen clothes, and some were fine linen. There were only one or two people in the sporadic scene, who obviously looked like wealthy people, and they were wearing silk!
Cheng Zhao'er frowned, and he didn't know if there was no cotton here, or if there was no cotton in this Great Xia country. In short, she didn't see the presence of cotton.
Although this era is unknown to Cheng Zhaoer. However, fortunately, the harshness of women is not as terrible as imagined, at least there are many women from small families who show up for their livelihoods and the like.
Moreover, Cheng Zhaoer has also heard of many widows remarrying, or remarrying divorced women and divorced women. Even because of the frequent wars in recent years, the imperial court very much encourages women to remarry, give birth to more children, and grow up to add strength to the army! Isn't Zhang a widow remarried?
When Cheng Zhao'er heard such a situation, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, if it reached the era when the legendary woman couldn't even get out, Cheng Zhao'er probably wanted to die!
Listening to the shouts of the hawkers, Cheng Zhaoer secretly calculated. A steamed bun with bud grain noodles is the size of a man's fist, only a penny, and although a bowl of Yangchun noodles looks clear and watery, although the noodles don't look very white, some are black and yellow. It's the same color as the bud grain pastry that Cheng Zhaoer had eaten before. It's probably noodles made from bud valley noodles! But with a spoonful of the store's special miso in it, a guy who resists heavy loads on the dock can almost fill his stomach. And such a bowl of noodles is only 2 yuan.
