town

The three sisters and brothers went to the east of the village to find Li Hujun and said that they wanted to go to the town to have a look. This Li Hujun is also a warm-hearted person, and immediately packed up the rabbit skin that had been nitrated, and after taking his ox cart to place the batch of goods properly, he let Liu Susu and the three sisters and brothers sit on the ox cart.

It's just that Liu Susu and the three of them felt that it was really inappropriate, and they were already embarrassed to let Li Hujun take them to the town. Why are you embarrassed to take Li Hujun's ox cart now, and this cow is valuable to the Zhuang family. Ordinary ox carts generally only pull some grain crops and the like, and rarely use ox carts to pull people.

In fact, it is not that the ox cart cannot be used to pull people, but the responsibility of the ox is great. A family's fields are generally cultivated with cattle, and like the average farmer, the family can not afford to raise a cow, not to mention that raising cattle needs careful care, it is said that buying a cow is the cost of the average farmer for a year, so the average farmer is not willing to spend a year to buy a cow. Of course, there are also people who borrow cattle from other people's families who have a good relationship with them, but even those who borrow cattle in this way are responsible for taking care of the borrowed cows.

Therefore, Li Hujun let Liu Su and Su sit in the ox cart, which was really surprising to them, especially Liu Manman, she knew best what the cow represented for the villagers.

"Uncle Li, we won't sit in this ox cart, and it's the same when we go to town." Liu Manman excused.

Liu Susu is a little eager to try, she is used to taking buses, subways, planes in modern times and don't know what it's like to take an ox cart, oh, by the way, she has ridden a horse in modern times, but it is a landscape horse for taking pictures. After paying a hundred yuan for the horse farm, the administrator of the horse farm led him around the horse farm and it was over, which was Liu Susu's only experience in riding a horse.

Now that Li Hujun said that he would let them ride the ox cart, not to mention that Liu Susu was still a little excited in his heart. After all, both the cow and the horse are four-legged animals, and the feeling of doing it should be similar to the feeling of riding a horse. Of course, Liu Susu selectively ignored the fundamental difference between cattle and horses.

Li Hujun was immediately unhappy when he heard Liu Manman say that he would not take the ox cart, "What's the matter with this kid of you?" What's wrong with riding an ox cart? Do you brothers and sisters still look down on me? ”

"That's not what I meant, we really can't sit on this ox cart." Liu Manman hurriedly explained. However, Liu Manman's explanation was obviously not convincing, because Liu Susu and Liu Tiandong's eyes were fixed on the cow body.

Li Hujun also found that Liu Susu's eyes had been on the oxcart body, and immediately laughed: "Man girl, you see that your brother and sister want to sit on my oxcart." Don't talk so much, sit down and let's get up and go to town." Liu Manman felt extremely embarrassed, but it was difficult to say that the two sisters and brothers had to sit on the ox cart.

The breeze of May, so soft, floats the fragrance of the locust flowers on the side of the road, gently blowing the cheeks and sideburns of everyone, driving the small trees and grass to dance together, when a gust of wind blows, the trees there pull out new branches, highlight the tender green shoots, look at it, like a green ocean. On both sides of the mountain road, there are wild flowers blooming with purple and red, red like fire, pink like xia, white like snow, flowers blooming, competing for beauty, fragrant and charming.

Liu Susu has long been attracted by the beautiful scenery along the way, and you must know that these shelves cost money to see. Now you can appreciate it without a penny, which is also a beautiful thing.

And along the way, Li Hujun couldn't stop asking Liu Susu and them some questions because he was talkative, but sometimes he would ask Xu more or less. Liu Susu is also a shrewd person, and when she saw this, she knew that this Li Hujun might have some kind of affection for her mother.

However, it is also Xu's kind and gentle, and he is not bad. Although she is a widow, Xu is only twenty-nine years old this year. It is not difficult to understand Li Hujun's interest in the Xu family, but I don't know what kind of attitude the Xu family has towards Li Hujun, but there is still a large family of the Liu family. If Li Hujun really wants to be with the Xu family, I'm afraid there is still a very difficult road to go.

Liu Susu shook his head, well, now is not the time to think about this. If the Xu family and Li Hujun were really fated, he would naturally help them succeed at that time.

"Uncle Li, do you often go to the town and know where there is an embroidery workshop in the town?" Liu Susu still decided to ask Li Hujun to see if he knew where there was an embroidery workshop, because it was much better than his sister and brother going to the town to mess around.

"By the way, we've been talking for so long. I haven't asked you what you're doing in town? Li Hujun realized it later.

"We ......" Liu Manman was intercepted by Liu Susu before he could say anything, "It's nothing, we just went to the town to buy some seeds, and I have been pestering my sister to embroider a purse for me in the past few days." My sister said that she didn't embroider well, so I wanted to take it to the people in the town's embroidery workshop to see how my sister was embroidering. ”

Liu Susu didn't tell Li Hujun the truth what she was going to do in town, after all, she and Li Hujun were just acquaintances. Even if there was a reason for the Xu family, they didn't dare to tell Li Hujun that they were going to sell embroidery.

Li Hujun didn't ask them anything, after all, in Li Hujun's heart, they were just children, and it was also a child's nature to go to the town to see the excitement. If they really told Li Hujun what kind of business they were going to do, it would scare Li Hujun.

"It's a pity that I don't know where there is an embroidery shop in the town, although I say that I have been in town for a long time, but most of the time I go directly to the leather store to sell my nitrate. I didn't pay attention to any embroidery workshops for a while. Li Hujun felt very embarrassed, but he really didn't pay attention to these trivial matters as a big man.

After arriving in Huangliu Town, Liu Susu and the others agreed with Li Hujun to gather under the big poplar tree on West Street for two hours, and then go back to Siyingzi Village together.

On both sides of the street are teahouses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops. There are also many small vendors with large umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides of the street. The streets stretch east and west to the quieter suburbs outside the city, but the streets are still full of pedestrians: some carry burdens, some drive ox carts to deliver goods, some drive donkeys to pull wagons, and the houses on both sides are lined up, with tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, etc., and on either side of the alleys are shabby and quaint moss-covered courtyard walls near civilian courtyards, some of which are covered with dense green creeper vines.

The three sisters and brothers of Liu Susu are in this Huangliu Town for the first time, and Liu Susu is better. But Liu Manman and Liu Tiandong were surprised, Siyingzi Village has the best house of the landlord's family, but in this town, there are many houses that are better than the landlord's family. The clothes worn by the people in the town are dozens of times better than those worn by the people in Siyingzi Village.

I saw a long skirt wearing a dark blue brocade passing by Liu Susu, and the skirt was embroidered with white dots

Plum blossoms, with a white brocade belt to tie the slender waist that is unbearable. Twist your jet-black hair into a bun

, only inserted a plum white hosta. Although concise, it looks fresh and elegant to the mirror to freshen up. The girl with a thin powder on her face

Pass.

The girl was so beautiful that she walked into a fat powder shop and said something to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper smiled and took out a box of fine rouge from the cabinet and handed it to the girl, who poured it

He is also a cheerful person. He took the rouge and just looked at the color of the rouge and paid the money. Liu Susu was not there

Keep looking, because they still have to find the embroidery workshop.

Xu searched for about half an hour and didn't find the embroidery workshop, and Liu Manman's heart was already very lost. She knew that there was nothing as simple as Su Su said, just go to an embroidery workshop in the town and put the embroidery on consignment. Now they've been in town for so long, and they still haven't seen a shadow of the embroidery.

Liu Susu was not in a hurry when she hadn't found the embroidery workshop yet, because she was observing everything in this Huangliu Town.

This Huangliu Town is not a big town, but because Huangliu Town is a traffic fortress, this Huangliu Town is much more prosperous than ordinary towns, and there are naturally more people doing business in this town.
