Chapter 40: Look at the excitement
Su Wen saw that there was not enough time, so she hurried to buy what she needed. But fortunately, I was lucky, and I bought everything I wanted. Because there is no need for a ticket, flour and oil are slightly more expensive than supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores.
White sugar is cheaper, and the popular thing in the countryside this year is brown sugar, confinement, replenishing the body, and sending brown sugar to relatives.
There are relatively few people who buy white sugar, and Su Wen buys white sugar, which is a lot cheaper.
Before leaving, there were still a few crucian carp left in the fish stall, which were also bought by Su Wen.
It's all wild, and you can't buy it if you want to eat it before you cross it.
When the artificially farmed crucian carp is stewed in soup, there is always a pungent smell of engine oil.
I went out in the afternoon, and it cost a total of eight dollars and two cents. The harvest is full, she can't carry the basket anymore, and when she gets home, her feet hurt, fade and hurt, and her arms are sore. When I arrived at the door of the house, I didn't dare to go in directly, and I was carrying so many things, in case I was seen, I wanted to gossip.
Now she just wants to make money secretly and get by.
Fine flour and sugar are all good things, and the second aunt and third aunt will grab it directly. Niu Niu, Zhuang These two bear children are even more difficult to deal with.
Little child, she can't say anything yet.
Su Wen didn't dare to take the main road into the village in front, and bypassed a locust forest behind the village, trying not to attract people's attention to enter the village.
Walking out of the acacia grove, there was an open threshing floor not far away, facing the straw piles stored in the brigade. One by one, like a small mountain bag, Su Wen walked halfway and heard an ambiguous sound from the grass.
As a veteran driver in modern society, Su Wen has read a lot of romance novels, and I heard it at once.
It's too bold, it's not dark yet! Dare to fight in the field.
What a load of firewood this must be!
Afraid of long needle eyes, Su Wen was about to speed up her pace, when she heard the panting voice of a man who was exercising violently, "Follow me, and I will take you to live in a big house in the future." ”
Hey? Why does this voice look so much like the third uncle?
"Just coax me, where did you come from the big house?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
Su Wen sneered, the big house that the third uncle said shouldn't be hers, right? It seems that the original seven sisters are still surrounded by wolves, and none of their relatives have any good things.
But let her meet it today, which can be regarded as a wake-up call.
The woman's voice was inaudible to Su Wen. It's only been more than half a month since she arrived, and most of the people in the village haven't recognized it. I wanted to hear it again, but the words behind it were really hard to hear, and she was afraid of being discovered, so she left quickly.
When I got home, I found that there was no one at home. Xiaomei is not here, it stands to reason that at this time, Xiaomei should feed the chickens at home.
Su Qing also came back from the tailor.
Su Wen was not at ease, put down her things, locked the door and went out to find someone.
****
At this time, in addition to the laborers who went to the field to earn a share of the work, almost one-third of the people in the village gathered near Su Xuewu's house.
Su Qing is also there.
She originally heard from the tailor that the eldest sister had quarreled with someone again, and she was not at ease. In the afternoon, the sun had just set, and I said hello to the master and went home first.
I'm afraid that the eldest sister will suffer.
However, when I returned to the village, I didn't hear anything bad about the eldest sister at all, but many people were talking about Su Pingfan.
Su Qing, who listened to the content of the discussion, was dumbfounded.
When I passed by the door of the second aunt's house, I found that the door was closed. But there were many people clinging to the courtyard wall, stepping on chairs and tiptoeing in.
It's like going to the countryside to show a movie in the city during the Chinese New Year.
"Second sister, here!" Su Xiaomei's short and thin little man crowded into the crowd and beckoned to Su Qing happily. After calling people over, he was very righteous and gave half of his bench to Su Qing.
