It was not yet noon when they reached the town, and it was not very hot because of the dark clouds, but it was a good day to go to the market.

The market is very lively, there are about 30 acres of open space are people next to each other shops and vendors, shouting and selling one after another, the fire-breathing acrobatics are all equipped with stunts, although the environment is dirty, but the smell of fireworks in the world is ten.

Some vendors set up everywhere can see that the croppers are still selling by-crops, and the vegetables, meat, rice and noodles seasoning are dazzling.

The coachman was going to visit relatives, put Shen Qingqing and the three of them down and left, Shen Qingqing came to the rally for the first time in such a lively place, standing on tiptoe and looking left and right.

Aunt Wang also entered the city with Grandma Liu, but she had to pretend in front of Shen Qingqing: "Our Jiudaoguan Town is lively." ”

"Jiudaoguan Town?" Shen Qingqing was attracted by this name. "Aunt Wang, do you know why it's called Jiudaoguan?"

Aunt Wang didn't speak, but pointed to the distance with a proud look on her face: "Look there." ”

Shen Qingqing looked in the direction and couldn't help but be shocked.

Because the summer sun is in full bloom, the distant scene is unobstructed, there are nine mountains in the distance among the mountains that are particularly conspicuous and go straight into the sky, a mountain range is like a natural pass, layer by layer, layer by layer, it is exactly nine passes.

That's a great name.

Aunt Wang pretended to be mysterious: "Qingqing, you don't know anything when you are young, it is said that there are old people who have met immortals when they were on the road on the nine mountains. ”

Shen Qingqing looked at Aunt Wang's exclusive news and never spread it, and felt funny in her heart, the Marxist education she received did not believe in cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, but this ancient people, especially uneducated farmers, had no sustenance in their souls, and it was understandable to believe in various religions and gods and monsters.

When Shen Qingqing was thinking about it, she suddenly felt the corners of her clothes tighten, and she saw Xiao Douding pulling her clothes, and her eyes kept looking at the place where the buns were sold.

The fragrance of the buns reached his nose, and Shen Qingqing also swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he hadn't eaten in the morning, and it was almost noon, so he was hungry for a long time.

Thinking about Xiao Douding, he is also hungry.

Shen Qingqing gritted her teeth: "Haohao, go, my mother will buy you meat buns to eat." ”

The meat buns are not expensive.

The two of them had a big meat bun each, and they were eating a lot of food, and when they were full, Shen Qingqing was thinking about what to buy.

There is no rice, flour or oil in the house, which must be bought, and there are many of these shops in the town.

Shen Qingqing walked into a rice shop, and the boss was not enthusiastic when he saw that she was dressed as a countryman: "See for yourself what you want." ”

"Boss, how are white rice and flour sold?"

"Thirty wen a pound of white rice, twenty wen a pound of flour."

"So expensive?"

According to the price, this white rice and flour will not be so expensive.

The boss glanced at her and snorted coldly: "Countryman." ”

When Shen Qingqing was about to speak, he saw a woman in luxurious clothes walking out of it, holding white rice in her hand: "Boss, these two catties of white rice are a total of thirty wen." ”

The feeling of this boss is to be blinded by her.

Shen Qingqing didn't speak, just raised his eyebrows, and the boss also knew that what he was doing was wrong, so he hurriedly sold Shen Qingqing a few catties of white rice and flour for five pounds less than the original price.

Xiao Douding didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten meat, and when he saw that the butcher's butcher's butcher stall couldn't move, he couldn't, so Shen Qingqing had to ask: "Big brother, how much is your meat." ”

"Fifty cents a pound."

"So expensive?" Shen Qingqing counted his silver taels, these fifty wen a pound was something he couldn't afford, but looking at Xiao Douding's pitiful eyes, Shen Qingqing was sad.

Suddenly, I saw the butcher put some pigs in the water next to him, and he had an idea and said, "How to sell them in the water?" ”

In ancient times, most people didn't like to eat water because of the conditions, but the butcher looked at Shen Qingqing and was generous: "Sister, if you want these waters, I will sell them to you for ten cents." ”

This is a good deal, Shen Qingqing paid the money to take the water, and when she just wanted to buy some vegetables, Aunt Wang pulled her: "These vegetable leaves are not worth two pennies, there are many in my vegetable garden, if you want, you can give a copper plate and pick it casually." ”

Shen Qingqing knew that rural people thought that green vegetables were cheap things, and they didn't spend money to buy them, so she thought about it.

I wanted to add something to the house, but I didn't have a few copper plates in my hand, so I had to give up.

The person pulling the ox cart happened to come back from visiting relatives, and Shen Qingqing followed Aunt Wang back to Anning Village.

After this tossing back and forth, the sun was setting when I got home, but I didn't have to worry about food when I got home.

Shen Qingqing took some vegetables and potatoes from Aunt Wang's vegetable garden, bought a lot of water in the market, and at night a plate of fried pork liver with green peppers, spicy fried shredded potatoes, and stir-fried Sijiqing.

Xiao Douding didn't even have the time to speak when he ate, and finally, wiping his oily mouth, Xiao Douding shouted: "Mother, the food you cook is really delicious." ”

This time, Xiaodouding was not wrong, because there was oil in the house, Shen Qingqing deliberately put more seasonings and oil when cooking, which was full of color, flavor and flavor.

Shen Qingqing sandwiched a piece of pork liver and put it in his mouth, and the oil went straight to the inside of his mouth, and the fragrance of green onions and ginger instantly filled his mouth, and there was no fishy smell: "This pig is really bought right, not to mention that it is cheap and nutritious, and the food made is delicious." ”

Xiao Douding didn't answer her words, although he listened to Shen Qingqing's words and chewed slowly, he took one bite after another, and didn't stop at all.

In the end, Shen Qingqing wiped her mouth and smiled at Xiaodouding.

After eating and washing, the sky is also dark, and the night is mixed with the lights of thousands of homes to gild the sky with different colors.

Because of today's cooking, Shen Qingqing couldn't help but feel sleepy, if he had gone to sleep before, but when he looked down and saw that the fat on his body was about to droop to the ground, he felt uncomfortable in his heart, the body is the foundation of people, and exercise is still indispensable!

Thinking of this, Shen Qingqing pulled a mat and spread it on the ground as a yoga mat, and started yoga on top of it.

Before the crossing, she had signed up for a yoga class, so she almost remembered that with the stretching of the movements, her body really became a lot lighter.

Xiaodou Ding was playing with the spinning top, looking at his mother like this, he couldn't help but be curious: "Mother, what are you doing here?" ”

Shen Qingqing raised her legs and said, "Mother, this is doing yoga. ”

"Yoga." Xiao Douding's round mouth spit out two words, very curious. "What's the use of yoga?"

Shen Qingqing saw through the child's thoughts, and just closed his eyes: "Haohao, if you like it, you can do it together." ”

"Okay."

Xiao Douding's body is smiling, coupled with his fair skin and thinness, when he does yoga movements, he is fun and feels that the appearance of the little adult is extremely serious.

After half an hour of yoga, Shen Qingqing's body was sweating.

The farmers in the countryside don't take a bath every day, but Shen Qingqing couldn't stand the sticky discomfort on his body, so he burned a large basin of bath water in the yard.

At this time, it was getting late, most of the people in the village went to bed early, and the flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom, accompanied by a burst of fragrance wafting from time to time in the wind, and the cool breeze blew because there was no barrier from clothes, Shen Qingqing felt comfortable.

After taking a bath and closing the door, Shen Qingqing took Xiaodouding to rest.

I thought it would be the same as yesterday, but Shen Qingqing slept extremely uncomfortably.

Her whole person seemed to be a soul in a dream, and her body became transparent, and she drifted from home to Aunt Wang's house.

Aunt Wang was still sewing and mending clothes, her son and daughter-in-law had already slept, and they drifted along the path in the village to the gambler's house in the west of the village and the new daughter-in-law's house in the east of the village.

Shen Qingqing shook his head vigorously, wanting to wake up from the dream, but he didn't expect that the harder he struggled, the faster his body wandered in the dream.

In the end, he actually skipped Anning Village and came to Jiudaoguan Town.

At night, the town is much more lively than Anning Village, there are sons and brothers who are looking for fun, and there are night wonton shops that have just come out.

The body is getting higher and higher, and the scenery that Shen Qingqing sees is becoming more and more peculiar, the nine mountains seem to be Shen Qingqing's back garden, and you can shuttle freely, the mountains are full of fairy mist, and all kinds of precious herbs are everywhere, Shen Qingqing is itching to see it, if you pick it back, you may not be able to close how many silver taels.

"Shen Qingqing."

Suddenly, she heard someone calling her, Shen Qingqing was suspicious, turned her head and saw that she seemed to be back in the bazaar, the feeling of floating in the air was gone, there were people coming and going in the bazaar, there was an endless stream of vendors, and Shen Qingqing even saw the butcher who sold him pigs.

And it was an old man who was squatting on the ground who opened her mouth.

The old man's back is bent like a mountain in the distance, and his skin is chapped like old tree bark, but only a pair of eyes are bright, which makes people wonder when they look at it.

Shen Qingqing knew that this was a dream, but she couldn't wake up anyway, and she didn't know why, she actually reached out and helped the old man up.

The moment the old man stood up, the environment that was still real just now turned into nothingness again, and the old man was also floating in the air, I don't know when he grew a beard, the beard seemed to be an endless dragon whisker, and the white one seemed to be snow.

"Shen Qingqing, in order to reward you, I want to give you a treasure, and you can use this treasure whenever you want?"

"What?" Before Shen Qingqing could react, she saw the old man wave his hand, and she came to a strange place.
