Chapter 17 The Usefulness of Beans

asked Chu Feng'er to get her a silver ingot, Chu Mingxing ran out with two umbrellas, and after a few people got into the car, Chu Feng'er chased after her and instructed: "Sister-in-law, if they are clamoring to buy something, don't buy it for them!" ”

"I know this in my heart, eldest sister, you can rest assured." Liang Yiyi neither agreed nor refused.

Chu Feng'er watched her drive the ox cart out of the yard, shaking her head silently, she could already predict that her sister-in-law would buy a few things for them.

Chu Mingxing and Liang Zigui held an umbrella, Chu Yunzhu held an umbrella for himself and Liang Yiyi, and there was no one on the trail.

The direction of Chujia Village and Shenjia Village is different. asked Chu Yunzhu before going to the right place.

It was already half an hour after the group went to the town, and after basking in the sun for so long, the four of them did not feel hot at all, but felt cool and comfortable.

I drove the ox cart to the market, where the vendors were shouting and looking around, and finally found a shop selling pork.

The three of them stayed in the car and waited for her, and Liang Yiyi jumped out of the car and walked to the pork shop.

"Boss, how much is a pound of pork?"

The boss glanced at her lazily: "Fifteen cents." ”

"This price is expensive, and it's already afternoon, the weather is so hot, this pork is not as fresh as it is in the morning, is it cheaper?" Liang Yiyi bargained.

"Okay, then I'll give you a penny." The boss doesn't care.

It's already afternoon, and there is still so much meat left to sell, so it's cheaper for her a penny, so let her buy more.

"Nacheng, cut me two catties of lean meat, and then three catties of fatty meat." Liang Yiyi tried to pick two pieces of meat that looked fresh.

Buy more and go back, and save three days and two ends of running out.

"Howler!" The boss yelled and got up from the bench to cut meat for her.

Liang Yiyi saw a pile of bones without much meat in the corner of the table, so she asked, "Boss, how do you sell these bones?" ”

The boss glanced at it and didn't think about it: "If you want it, I'll give you all the six cents." "These bones are not wanted, there is only a little bit of meat on them, and ordinary people will not even look at them, let alone buy them.

"Okay, then you can help me put it together with the meat." These pork bones can be used to stew soup, which is very useful for Zigui and Mingxing, who are growing their bodies, and they taste very delicious.

As soon as he retracted his gaze, he glanced at a wooden barrel on the ground, which contained a pile of large intestines and a pair of pig hearts. ”

"Two pennies." The boss didn't look up.

Liang Yiyi thoughtfully, the ancient water is really cheap, it is estimated that it is also because the ancient people did not have a good way to clean the large intestine of pigs, so no one wants to buy it, the pig water is done well, but it is fragrant and delicious.

In her previous life, when she was a military doctor, she always ran to various places, while healing the wounds of the soldiers in the army, she ate all the delicacies in that place, she was a foodie, she usually likes to cook for herself, she will cook many famous dishes, this simple cleaning of the pig drainage, for her could not be simpler.

The boss wrapped the meat in oiled paper, and used two lotus leaves to wrap the pig's water and pig's bones.

Liang Yiyi took out a silver ingot and handed it to him: "Boss, find money." ”

The boss looked at her in surprise, seeing that her clothes were made of the worst linen, but she didn't expect to be a rich man.

After saying 'wait,' the boss went into the shop to find money for her.

Not long after, the boss wrapped some broken silver in rags, and a few hundred copper coins: "Here are nine taels of broken silver, and nine hundred and thirty coins, you count." ”

After confirming that the amount of money was correct, Liang Yiyi put away the rags and asked, "My ox cart is not far away, and I can't take these things alone, can I bother the boss to help deliver these things to the car?" ”

The boss nodded, shouted sideways, and a woman came out of it, looking at what was supposed to be his wife.

The proprietress helped her get everything to the car, and Liang Yiyi thanked her.

Liang Zigui blinked and looked at the big bag: "Sister, what did you buy so much?" ”

"I'll buy some meat and pigs in the water, and I'll get them for you when I get back."

"Sister-in-law, you weren't cheated by the boss, were you? It takes a long time to clean this pig, how do you buy this? Chu Yunzhu said with a frown.

"I have a way to clean it up in half a pillar of incense, little sister, you just wait and see." Liang Yiyi smiled at her.

She got on the ox cart and drove it to buy some small shrimp, which were more expensive than pork, but she didn't feel sorry for the money, because the shrimp could be eaten for a long time.

"Do you want to drink tofu brain?" On this hot day, although I didn't feel hot after taking the pills, I still couldn't avoid thirst.

"What is tofu brain?" The three asked in unison.

Liang Yiyi was asked a little surprised, can't there be no tofu sold here?

Seeing that her expression was wrong, Chu Yunzhu said: "I only know that there is soy milk, but this is the first time I have heard of tofu brain, is this tofu brain delicious?" ”

"Probably delicious, I've seen it in my dreams." Since there is no tofu brain here, she can't say that she has eaten it.

"Is there any tofu for sale in the market?" Liang Yiyi asked her.

Chu Yunzhu tilted his head: "What is tofu?" ”

Liang Yiyi sighed in her heart, it seems that there is really no tofu to sell in this era, but I heard her say that if there is soy milk for sale, then the beans will always be sold.

Rushed to the car to find a grocery store, this grocery store looked very big, got out of the car, Liang Zigui and Chu Mingxing had to go in with her, Chu Yunzhu was very sensible: "Then I'll stay in the car and watch things." ”

"My little sister is so good, my sister-in-law will buy you candy later."

Hearing that there was candy to eat, Chu Yunzhu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Sister-in-law, don't, eldest sister won't let you buy anything for us." ”

Liang Yiyi smiled: "What's this, everyone can eat it when you buy it, and the eldest sister eats it herself, so naturally she won't say anything." ”

"Well, well."

With that, Liang Yiyi took the two children into the grocery store.

Xiao Er stepped forward and asked, "What do the guests want to buy?" ”

Liang Yiyi glanced around the store and found that the things sold were quite complete, so she asked, "I want to buy rice, little brother tell me the price of these rice." ”

The second child in this shop doesn't look as big as her.

Xiao Er smiled sharply, "Okay! ”

He introduced her one by one, and in the end, Liang Yiyi bought five cents a pound of rice and asked the shopkeeper to weigh her twenty catties.

When weighing rice, Liang Yiyi took Liang Zigui and Chu Mingxing around the store at will, and unexpectedly saw soybeans on the shelf, she asked out loud: "Little brother, how much is a pound of soybeans?" ”

"Soybean Qiwen money." Xiao Er responded loudly.

This soybean is the most difficult to sell in their store, because the price is more expensive than rice, and customers will buy at most one or two at a time for stewed soup.

Liang Yiyi supported her chin with her fingers and said to the shopkeeper: "Give me five catties." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, his sleeve was pulled by Chu Mingxing, and he whispered: "Sister-in-law, don't buy it, this bean is useless." ”

Liang Yiyi said patiently: "Sister-in-law bought soybeans to make them delicious for you, and there are many uses for these beans, you will know when the time comes." ”
