Chapter Eighty-Eight: Go to the county seat
Of course, Liu Manman would not ask who told Liu Susu these truths, after all, Liu Susu had been to the town several times. It's also normal to meet some people.
"By the way, eldest sister, didn't you say last time that your embroidery has been embroidered? It just so happens that we will take it to Aunt Su tomorrow, otherwise Aunt Su should be in a hurry for such a long time. Liu Susu said.
Originally, Liu Susu didn't say anything about it, and Liu Manman wanted to bring it up, but now that Liu Susu said it, of course he wouldn't disagree.
"Well, I'll clean it up later."
After dinner, the family discussed what they should do when they went to the county seat, because this was the first time Liu Susu and Liu Manman went to the county seat. Xu was very uneasy, and had to let them go when he thought of his family's livelihood.
"Mother, you don't have to worry, we must be careful that there will be no trouble when we go to the county seat." Liu Susu assured Xu. "Besides, you have a lot of things to do at home tomorrow, my eldest sister and I are not here, you must be careful of your aunt." Liu Susu was not very relieved of the Xu family.
"Second sister, I won't go to my husband's place tomorrow, I'll help my mother at home." Liu Tiandong said.
As soon as they heard Liu Tiandong's words, Xu is and Liu Susu's faces basically darkened immediately.
"No matter what is not as important as your study now, besides, you only go for one day and you won't go the next day, what do you make Mr. think? That gentleman would like someone like you who is anticlimactic? Liu Susu reprimanded, this was also the first time she said anything serious to Liu Tiandong.
She has always been very spoiled by her attitude towards Liu Tiandong, but Liu Susu will not be a little vague on the issue of reading. She will not let Liu Tiandong become a weak scholar who does not distinguish between grains and grains, nor will she let Liu Tiandong delay his studies for the sake of family work.
"Brother Dong, what your second sister said is right, you still study hard. We'll just do the work, and then we'll have someone to help tomorrow. Xu said softly.
Liu Tiandong also knew that the second sister and his mother were unwilling to delay him from studying, so even if Liu Susu reprimanded him, he felt that this was a kind of love from his family.
"By the way, mother, will there be a carriage when we go to the county seat?" The last time Liu Susu remembered that when she was in the town, she saw a horse-drawn carriage that was specially used to transport guests from the county seat to the town.
"You're talking about the big car shop." Xu Shi Dao.
Was it originally called a big car shop? Liu Susu nodded: "It should be." ”
"There is a big car shop in this town, but I don't go to the county seat every day, and the car and horse fares are also expensive." Xu Shi Dao.
Liu Susu thought to herself whether it was expensive or not, but second, did she really want her to walk back and forth for a hundred miles? She couldn't bear it, so she would rather pay a little more than walk hundreds of miles.
"In this way, my eldest sister and I will leave early tomorrow morning to ask the big car shop in the town if we are going to the county seat, and we will have to do such a long journey." Liususu Road.
Xu nodded: "It's okay, if there is really a carriage to go to the county seat, I will be more relieved, otherwise you two little girls will still be carrying spicy cabbage to walk so far." ”
"I'm fine, it's just that Su Su is still young, if she really walks so much, she will definitely not be able to stand it." Willow vine road.
"Okay, let's decide, go to the big car shop in the town early tomorrow morning and ask, if there is a carriage to the county seat, we will make a carriage, if not, we will walk." Liususu Road.
Liu Susu believes that everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as all his thoughts start to slowly get on the right track, a qiē will become very good.
Because the decision was to set off early in the morning, Xu Shi helped to pack the spicy cabbage left over from last time in a ten-pound sauce jar, and gave Liu Susu and her pancakes overnight, saying that they were worried that the big car shop would not have a car for them to eat on the road.
After such a total pack-up, it was already dark.
"Susu, you will bring some silver with you tomorrow." Xu admonished.
Liu Susu shook his head, "No need, mother, let's just take some carriage and horse fares, and don't bring the rest." ”
Xu didn't agree to anything, and in the end, Liu Susu had to carry another five coins of silver into the close-fitting purse that Xu sewed for her.
"Mother, look at it now." Liu Susu patted his purse.
Xu finally nodded with satisfaction. "That's pretty much it."
After cleaning up, the family chatted for a while, and talked about how to arrange the manpower for pickling spicy cabbage, before falling asleep.
The next day, before dawn, Liu Susu got up from the bed, and it was strange that in his previous life, Liu Susu was basically a night owl-type character, who didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and didn't get up the next day if the sun didn't shine on his buttocks. When I got here, all the bad things were naturally improved.
Because he was going to the county seat, Liu Susu found a set of pale yellow cotton skirts, the skirt was originally only pale yellow, but Xu's ingenuity embroidered plum blossoms on the skirt. It looks a lot more elegant, if it weren't for the fact that he was going to the county seat today, Liu Susu would still be reluctant to wear this pale yellow cotton skirt. After washing my face carefully and rinsing my mouth.
Liu Susu went to find Liu Manman, although Liu Manman and Liu Susu lived in the same room, but Liu Manman got up earlier than Liu Susu, and was already making breakfast in the kitchen.
Because the family has just been separated, there are no pigs and chickens yet. There are not so many relatively housework, and now that Liu Susu is fully focused on making spicy cabbage, it is even more impossible to buy these.
"Big sister." Liu Susu shouted.
Liu Manman was scooping the water from the pot and glanced back at Liu Susu. "You're up? You go and ask Brother Dong to get up and eat, and my mother is watering the vegetables in the vegetable garden. ”
Liu Susu said "oh" and went to tell Liu Tiandong to get up and eat.
After eating, Liu Susu and Liu Manman went to the county seat, and Liu Tiandong also went to Mr. Xu was left alone at home, waiting for the helpers to come over and cook spicy cabbage together.
"Sister, we have to go faster." Liu Susu was a little worried that the big car shop would not have a carriage to go to the county seat today.
Liu Manman nodded, "Okay, let's go faster." When I went to the town, I first gave the embroidery to Aunt Su, and then we met at the entrance of the big car shop. ”
The two sisters had the heart to speed up their pace, but it didn't take much time to get to the town, and Liu Manman went to find Su Qing from Dexiufang.
Liu Susu went to find the big car shop, and it took several inquiries along the way to find the big car shop.
When it was outside the big car shop on Liusu Road, several carriages were parked in front of the big car shop, and the guys were busy unloading the goods.
A medium-sized man in a melon skin hat is urging the guy to unload.
"One or two hands and feet are a little sharper, and there are still a bunch of goods in the county that have not been transported."
As soon as he heard this, Liu Susu's eyes lit up. Hey, there's a play, these people will definitely go to the county seat later.
Liu Susu strengthened his courage and stepped forward. asked the man wearing the melon skin hat, "Uncle, are you going to the county seat?" ”
