Chapter 172: The Pastoral Life of a Peasant Girl (22)

Gu Wantang and the others paid a deposit of two hundred copper coins, set four sets of winter clothes, four pairs of shoes, and after receiving the shopkeeper's note, Gu Wantang smiled at the shopkeeper, "We will pay the rest of the balance when we come to pick up the winter clothes." ”

The shopkeeper looked at Gu Wantang and was actually more curious, because Gu Wantang was literate, although he didn't write nonsense, but after seeing Gu Wantang look at all the strips, the shopkeeper still smiled, and then looked at Gu Wantang curiously, "Are you literate?" ”

"It's just a matter of knowing some of the simpler words."

Shen Qingyu looked at Gu Wantang with a deeper look when he heard this, when he was a child, he secretly went to a private school to listen to a few days of classes, and he also knew some words, but the shopkeeper just wrote, and he only knew a few of them.

Although Gu Wantang's family background was good when she was young, Gu Wantang was a girl after all, so naturally she had never been to a private school, so Gu Wantang would never know how to read.

But now what Gu Wantang shows is that he knows words, and looks at Gu Wantang's appearance, and it is definitely not the kind of casual appearance that only knows a few words, Shen Qingyu looked at Gu Wantang for a while before he took his gaze back, "I still have to buy other things, let's go!" ”

Gu Wantang nodded, and then followed Shen Qingyu towards the outside.

There was only one blacksmith shop in this town, so Gu Wantang and the others went directly to the blacksmith shop without any hesitation.

"Uncle Yang, I'll buy a pot."

Uncle Yang, who was striking iron, stopped his hand, and then looked at Shen Qingyu, "It's Shen boy, didn't you just buy a pot not long ago?" Why is it here again, is Uncle Yang's craftsmanship regressing? Burned out the pot so quickly? ”

Shen Qingyu shook his head, "Uncle Yang, no, I'm just separated from the family, and I don't have a pot yet, so I'm just going to buy one."

This pot will be used for a long time after that, so Uncle Yang has to help me choose a better one, otherwise it will burn out when the time comes, and I will come to Uncle Yang for trouble. ”

Uncle Yang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, Shen Cuihua's temperament is known to everyone in the market, if the pot is only bought for a few days, it will be broken, with Shen Cuihua's temperament, it is strange not to come to his shop to make trouble, as long as it is not Shen Cuihua's pot is problematic, it is excellent.

"Shen boy, don't worry, Uncle Yang's pot is the best, I guarantee that you will use it for ten or eight years, you wait, Uncle will go and get you one."

Uncle Yang immediately entered the house, and after a while, he came out directly with a pot, "Shen boy, look, Uncle got you the best." ”

Shen Qingyu looked at the pot that Uncle Yang took out, "How much?" ”

"You've bought a lot of them before, and you know the price, so I'll count you for eighty dollars!"

When Shen Qingyu heard this, he directly took eighty dollars to Uncle Yang, and then picked up the pot and put it on the back basket, "Thank you, Uncle Yang, I still have to buy some things, so I won't bother Uncle." ”

After coming out of the blacksmith shop, Shen Qingyu took Gu Wantang to the grocery store again, and after buying a lot of spices, he went to the grain store to buy some coarse grains, fine grains and a little flour. 168 Books

Seeing that the back basket was almost full, Gu Wantang said to Shen Qingyu, "Do you want to buy anything?" ”

Shen Qingyu shook his head, "Don't buy it, there are so many things, it's good if we carry it back, so naturally we won't buy it." ”

When the two of them replied to Shenjia Village, it was already noon, although it was said that everyone went home to cook, but more of them were still in the field and had not gone back, and when they saw Shen Qingyu coming back with Gu Wantang, they were all pointing at the two of them.

"Did these two Shen Qingyu make a fortune? Buy so many things. ”

"They have the money to buy things, but they don't have the money to give Shen Cuihua two, Shen Cuihua knows, I'm afraid that it will turn Shen Qingyu's family upside down!"

"Shen Cuihua is too ruthless, she costs two hundred copper coins a month! Two hundred copper coins in our homes may be used for half a year! ”

"Shen Qingyu wants to split up with the Shen family, this is the price he has to pay, since he agrees, then naturally he should pay."

"Also, since the girl of the Qin family got better, her whole person has changed a lot, she looked dirty before, but now she looks good."

"Qin girl's appearance is originally with her mother, and the more she grows up, the more she looks alike, when she was stupid before, she still felt that Qin girl was not worthy of Shen Qingyu, but now that this girl is good, I feel that Shen Qingyu is a little unworthy of Qin girl."

Shen Qingyu and Gu Wantang didn't seem to hear the conversation of those people, the two of them walked back and forth between the markets, they were already very tired at this time, and what they wanted to do most now was to go home first to rest and rest, and other things would wait until they got home.

Shen Cuihua was originally waiting at home for dinner, but after hearing the people in the village come to sneer and say something, Shen Cuihua hurried directly towards Shen Qingyu's house.

"Shen Qingyu, you come out for me."

Shen Qingyu had just taken a sip of water, and was going to talk to Gu Wantang, but Shen Cuihua's loud voice came directly from outside, he frowned, and after putting down the bowl, he went out directly.

Shen Cuihua was just about to scold, but when she saw Shen Qingyu walking out of the house, she rolled her eyes, and then said directly, "I heard that you went to the market to buy a lot of things, since you have money to buy things, then shouldn't we give me the money last month." ”

Hearing this, Shen Qingyu directly took out the two hundred coins that had been prepared from his arms, "This is last month's silver money, mother, you order a little." ”

Shen Cuihua frowned when she heard this, then took the silver coin, and clicked it directly, after realizing that it was not wrong, Shen Cuihua put the silver money directly in her arms, and then looked at Shen Qingyu, "What?" Didn't you bring anything to me and your father when you went to the market? ”

Gu Wantang originally planned to sit in the house for a while, but when she heard Shen Cuihua's words, she came out of the house directly, "Mother, didn't we say that we would give you silver money every month, since the silver money was given, it was naturally given, why did you still ask us for something?"

Today at the market, a child asked me for something, and I gave him a meat bun, do you want a meat bun? ”

Shen Cuihua's face turned black when she heard Gu Wantang's words, she was not stupid, what Gu Wantang said was like saying that she was a person who asked for food, Gu Wantang said it so bluntly, Shen Cuihua still had no intention of leaving.
