made an appointment with Xiao Bao Niang and Cui Niu Niang, found a big basket to carry the child, and the three women and two children went to Huangsha City.

Cui Niu's father broke two ribs and injured his muscles and bones for a hundred days, and Cui Niu's mother also watched it very closely. Afraid that he would go to the market to steal a drink, he didn't bring Cui Niu, leaving her at home to keep an eye on her father.

Xiaoya also accompanied Cui Niu's house to play, but Xiaobao was also carried in the basket and went together.

Because of the New Year, there are many people in the surrounding villages to buy New Year's goods, and today's market is much more lively than before. After making an appointment to buy things, they went to meet at the gate of the city, and went to buy things.

"Mother, Xuan Xuan is not heavy, or Xuan Xuan will come down and go by himself!"

Sanniang looked at the crowds around her, and said uneasily: "Xuanxuan is not heavy, and my mother can still carry it." When you get to a place where there are few people, my mother will let you down, be good, take a blanket and cover it yourself. ”

Xuan Xuan obediently continued to sit on the back basket and pulled the blanket to cover Sanniang's back. The little hands are not idle, from time to time haha to cover her ears, along the way to meet a soldier in the camp, who knows will respectfully say hello to Sanniang, if you bring your family, you will also give Xuanxuan a few pieces of candy to buy for their children.

The sugar in the north is very rare, and it is very common maltose, but it is sold a little expensive, and ordinary people only buy some for their children during the New Year's holidays.

Because Sanniang herself also likes to eat sugar, she will buy some every time she goes to the market.

Sanniang carried the child on her back for a long time to find the tailor shop at the end of the street, the shop looked very simple on the outside, but the inside was spotlessly cleaned, and the fabrics were neatly placed. The boss is a woman in her early thirties, and everyone smiles with three points, and she was dialing the abacus when Sanniang came in.

"Yo, such a handsome little lady, it's the first time I've seen the slave family after staying in Huangsha City for more than ten years."

"Boss, I don't know if there are red jackets worn by children in the shop? I want to buy my son new clothes for the Chinese New Year. Sanniang smiled and gently put the basket on the ground, and Xuan Xuan immediately jumped out of the horse.

"Hey, what a handsome young man, what a blessing for the lady!" I didn't see the child in the basket just now, but I will see it, and the proprietress 's eyes lit up. It's really a woman who has been in the north for a long time, and she manages the inside and outside like a man, all of them are dark and strong, and she has never seen a mother and son as handsome as the pair in front of her for a long time.

"The proprietress can take it out for me to see?"

"It's convenient and convenient, the lady came at the right time, the first few people in the shop just came in from the field to wear a batch of ready-to-wear clothes worn by children, to ensure comfort and warmth, the little boy must look good when he wears it." As she spoke, the proprietress lifted the cloth and came out of the back room with a few festive-colored ready-to-wear clothes.

Seeing that Sanniang is not like an ordinary woman, the proprietress is all high-quality goods.

Looking at these small clothes embroidered with auspicious ruyi patterns and small delicate tiger heads, Sanniang looked at it and liked it, compared the size with it on Xuanxuan and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this ready-to-wear garment?" ”

"Seeing that the lady is a sincere person, the slave family can't do the bad things that pit people, so let's charge six taels of silver for a set. It's a little more expensive, but it's all good material, and the slave family has to make some money by transporting it from other places. ”

The materials are all good materials, and how can there be a reason to sell them at a low price in business? This proprietress can not only speak out, but she does not deceive people.

Although six taels of silver is in an ordinary family, it is enough for a family of three to live for two months. But last time, Xuan Xuan received a bunch of meeting gifts that were quite generous, and Wei Ci also had a military salary every month, and he could afford six taels of silver.

Sanniang looked at the old jacket that Xuan Xuan made for him, it was actually quite ugly, and the little guy and his father didn't dislike it.

The proprietress saw Sanniang hesitate, but she also felt normal, after all, most of the northern borders were not very rich. only smiled, and still said very politely: "If the lady thinks it's expensive, it doesn't matter, there are some other things in the slave shop, and the slave family will bring it to you to take a look." ”

Seeing that she wanted to take the little clothes back to the room, Sanniang hurriedly stopped: "No need for the boss, I want this little tiger and calf, and help me get two adults out, my husband's shoulders are wider, and I may have to trouble the boss to change it." ”

Such a big business made the proprietress who had always only smiled like a flower, and said happily: "Lady wait, the slave family will go and bring it to you." ”

Wei Ci and his own have nothing to be picky about, they only changed their waists according to the size, and wrapped them together with Xuanxuan's. When Sanniang was about to pay, she suddenly saw two little red dresses in the corner, which looked very beautiful. The proprietress followed her gaze and sighed: "These two little dresses have been put away for a long time, but unfortunately the girls in the north are relatively cheap, and they usually pick up the old clothes of their brothers and brothers to cover their bodies, and few can get new clothes, and the little girl's dresses are difficult to sell now." ”

Seeing the two little red dresses, Sanniang suddenly thought of Xiaoya and Cuiniu, and said, "Boss, I want to wrap those two sets of little red dresses for me." ”

"Got it? Ladies and daughters, what a blessing. The proprietress smiled and praised.

Sanniang only smiled and didn't explain.

After getting along for a long time, those two little girls are almost like her own daughter. Obedient and sensible, Sanniang also likes it very much.

I bought dozens of taels of silver in the shop at once, and most of the back baskets were directly stuffed, and Xuan Xuan couldn't sit down. Helpless, Sanniang could only lead him to walk, but the little guy was very happy.

As he was leaving, the little one got new clothes and shouted happily, "Goodbye, beautiful aunt." ”

Sanniang smiled, but the proprietress was stunned.

If her child is still alive, she will be as well-behaved and cute as this child!

When the mother and son walked to the door, the proprietress suddenly trotted over with a pair of small tiger shoes, and said with a smile: "This is what the slave family does on weekdays, and it looks the same size as the size under the feet of the little boy, and it should fit well." The lady bought so many things for my slave family at once, which can be regarded as a gift. ”

I did buy a lot, Sanniang didn't shirk, took it with a smile, and said, "Then thank you boss." ”

"The lady is polite, the snow outside is slippery, and the lady walks slowly with the child."

Sanniang said goodbye with a smile and led Xuanxuan away.

Leaving the ready-to-wear shop, Sanniang took Xuanxuan to walk around the street and bought some of the things that the family lacked. After a circle, the back basket was already slowly a basket, heavier than carrying Xuan Xuan on his back.

When they arrived at the city gate of the appointment, Xiao Baoniang and they hadn't come yet, Sanniang put down the basket and waited with Xuan Xuan on the side.

"Hey, big brother, look, the little lady holding the child over there looks like a thief. It's the first time I've seen it in all my years in the North. ”

Sanniang heard the voice and turned her head to look. Outside the city gate, several men were staring at her. They were also wearing navy blue cotton jackets issued by the army, and they thought they should be soldiers.

The soldiers under the jurisdiction of King Zhenbei are strictly disciplined, and they are full of righteousness, and they will never be like those people, and their eyes are full of obscenity.

Seeing Sanniang look over, those who were angry whistled.

"Alas, little lady, it's freezing, do you want my brother to help you warm up!" The leader said, touching his chin and approaching obscenely, as if he was afraid that Sanniang would run away, and surrounded him separately.

A few people passed by, and they all ran away with their heads down.

Seeing them gradually approaching, Xuan Xuan struggled to let Sanniang let him go, opened his little arms to protect her, and shouted angrily at the approaching people: "Bad guy, don't get close to my mother." ”

"Yo he, this little bastard scolds us for being bad people, so how can we not be bad today?"

After saying that, several people laughed rudely.

The most intolerable thing for Sanniang is that others insult Xuan Xuan, and her eyes are instantly full of coldness: "The king of Zhenbei is strict in governing the army, and the soldiers under his command are all iron-clad, how can they get into a few of you dirty things." ”

"Good scolding, the little lady's voice is really ecstatic, I heard the brothers itching, come, let the brothers see, the little lady's person is more ecstatic than the voice, hehe." Listening to the little lady's coquettish scolding, several people stared at the small mouth that opened and closed, and the evil thoughts became even heavier, and they looked impatient.

Sanniang's face was ugly, and the hand holding Xuan Xuan was a little tighter.

At this moment, several soldiers in armor ran from the gate of the city, shouting from afar: "Animal, stop!" After shouting, seeing that those people were still a few steps away from the sister-in-law, before they had time to stretch out their hands, they breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly ran over.

When they got closer, they found that it was their wife who wanted to bully these bastards, and they all looked even more angry. The young lady who wants to bully them is simply not sure of life or death.
