"Apricot, are you alright? If I grind again, I won't take you with me? At the door of the second house, Ye Hao shouted at her sister in the house.

"It's coming, it's coming!"

As soon as her words fell, Ye Xing rushed out of the house at a trot like a small cannonball.

Stretched out his hand to hold his sister's hand, grinning brightly: "Sister, let's go?" ”

"Hmm." Ye Hao nodded and walked out of the gate with her mother.

Today, their family is going to the town to buy New Year's goods.

As for Father Ye, during this time, with the spring water in Ye Hao's space, he can barely walk a few steps down the ground now, but no one cooks for him, so he can only be wronged to eat bean bags at noon to satisfy his hunger.

Sitting on the ox cart that had been agreed in advance at the entrance of the village, more than an hour later, the family arrived outside the town.

Although it's not a big set today, there are a lot of people in the town, and at the end of the year, whether you have money or not, you will spend a few pennies to buy something good to go back.

Even if you can afford only a small amount of white flour and meat, it is better than nothing.

"Mother, how much white flour and polished rice should we buy this time? By the way, it's almost the New Year, and I have to send some to my grandfather and grandmother. ”

In the grain store, Ye Hao looked at her mother beside her and asked.

Xing Shi thought about it, and finally became angry, and said with a wave of his hand: "Buy a bag of thirty catties of white noodles, buy a bag of five catties, and the same is true for polished rice!" ”

Ye Hao smiled: "Okay! ”

I asked the price, paid the money, and told the shopkeeper that the things were temporarily placed in the store first, and they had to buy a lot of things this time, and it was inconvenient to bring such things.

"Do you still have brown sugar at home?" Ye Hao walked out of the store and asked her mother.

"It's not much, let's buy some!" Xing's didn't feel sorry for the money at this time, so he turned his head and entered the sugar shop again.

Life at home is much better now, and she is not as aggressive as before, and she is a lot more generous.

I bought a lot of miscellaneous things, and when I passed by the jewelry shop, Ye Xing's footsteps stopped, looking at the shiny jewelry in the house, and her eyes showed a longing light.

Ye Hao, who was beside her, saw this scene, smiled, turned her head and said to Xing's family: "Mother, for so many years, I haven't seen you bring any jewelry, it's better to... Go in and have a look? ”

She didn't say to buy it directly, only said to go in and have a look, this is to lower her mother's mental defense.

Let's go in and have a look, we don't necessarily have to buy it, don't you say?

As for once you're inside, hehe, that's another story.

"That's... Just go in and have a look? No woman can resist the temptation of jewelry, Xing hesitated, nodded and agreed.

Ye Ming and Ye Wenjun glanced at each other, and simply stood outside the door and waited, and the mother and daughter walked into the store.

"This lady, you can look at it at will, you like that, you can tell me."

As soon as I walked into the shop, I saw a young woman in her twenties, who greeted her and said with a smile.

"Okay." Originally, she was not very nervous, but when this woman said it, Xing became nervous, she nodded, feeling that she didn't even know where to look.

Ye Hao was completely the opposite, she was not nervous at all, her eyes first swept over the jewelry placed on the wooden table in the store, and found that there was nothing she wanted.

Turning to the woman, he asked, "Shopkeeper, I wonder if there are golden lilacs in your shop?" ”

She bought a pair of silver cloves for her sister before, and the family made money during this time, so she simply upgraded to gold.

"Yes, I'll give it to the little lady." The woman laughed, and soon brought a wooden box, in which were pairs of golden lilacs.

Ye Hao picked up the largest pair, gestured on her mother's ear, and nodded with satisfaction: "Mother, why don't we buy a pair for one person today?" ”

"It's... Wouldn't it be too much of a waste of money? Although Xing's heart was moved, he was still a little reluctant.

It is not easy for the family to save this money, she is willing to spend it on her children, but she will feel distressed when she spends it on herself.

"Mother, this is the new year soon, as the saying goes, the new year is new, besides, what are we making money for, isn't it just to make life better? Buy it, mother? ”

After Ye Hao finished speaking, she pointed to a silver hairpin in front of her and asked the woman, "Can I let my mother try on this silver hairpin?" ”

"No problem!" The woman knew from what the people in front of her had just said that this was a family that could afford things.

Hearing this, she happily took out the silver hairpin she pointed out and handed it to her.

Ye Hao took the silver hairpin, looked at it closely, and a touch of satisfaction flashed in her eyes, this is a plum blossom hairpin, although it is silver, but the workmanship is exquisite, and the weight is not light.

She inserted the hairpin into her mother's hair, and said with a smile: "Mother, look, isn't it very good-looking?" ”

There was a bronze mirror in front of several people, Xing Shi looked at the mirror a few times, and nodded: "It's beautiful, but..."

"Mother, don't be, buy it if you like it, when my brother marries in the future, your hairpin can always come in handy, you have worked hard for so many years, be kind to yourself!"

After Ye Hao finished speaking with a smile, she turned her head and asked her sister again: "Xing'er, which of these pairs of golden cloves do you like?" ”

Ye Xing's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, she pointed to one of them and said, "This!" ”

Hehe, she's been looking at it for a while.

Ye Hao nodded, and said to the woman: "These three pairs of golden cloves, as well as this silver hairpin, we all want them." ”

The woman smiled and squinted instantly, took out the abacus, and crackled and calculated: "Chenghui, a total of seven taels and seven cents of silver, and the odds are wiped for you, just give seven taels and seven cents!" ”

After paying the silver, Xing walked out of the store with his new jewelry and a distressed face, and kept chattering: "It's too expensive, it's too expensive, if your grandmother sees it, I don't know what she will say..."

Mother, it may be more convincing to press down the corners of your lips when you say this.

After the shopping, a few people carried bamboo baskets and things to the outside of the town, and got on the ox cart on the return journey.

After arriving home, they returned to the house with their things, Xing Shi roughly organized the things, looked at Ye's father on the kang and discussed: "This is about to be the New Year, I'll go to my mother's place later, right?" ”

"Today I went to the town and bought a bag of five catties of white flour and polished rice, so can I take some with me?"

Ye Zhengming hesitated and said, "I see that you still have brown sugar to buy, why don't you bring a catty over?" And our home-brewed wine, bring a jar too, right? ”

When Xing Shi heard this, his face, which was still kind before, changed in an instant: "No! That wine is for money! ”

"A pound can be sold for 600 Wen, and a jar weighs five or six pounds, you are willing to do it, I am reluctant!"

After all, that's my mother, my father, although Ye Zhengming didn't say this, but looking at that face, he was aggrieved.
