Chapter 39: Understanding

Tang Shiyu and Xu's mother, who happily went shopping, didn't know that they were despised, and even if they knew, they could only reply "How do you know?" ”。

Who let the family guess correctly, they were originally poor ghosts, or poor ghosts who have been poor for more than ten years.

As for temperament, Mother Xu grew up with the Su family and learned a lot, without spilling, she only has a little less connotation than the wives of those big families, and it is still okay to support the scene.

And Tang Shiyu has no inferiority complex in her bones at all, as for who gave her self-confidence, it must be the nine-year compulsory education in her previous life.

The streets are bustling with people, each busy with their own lives. Man is the strangest animal in the world, and everyone has their own mind and consciousness.

Consciousness directs the body to do what its soul wants to do, and of course there are times when it can't control it.

"Boss, let's have two bowls of noodles!"

When he arrived at a small noodle stall, Tang Shiyu shouted to the busy boss.

"What kind of noodles do you want, egg noodles, shredded pork noodles, or lo noodles?" The boss was a middle-aged man, dressed in a short suit and wearing a gray apron in front of him, and he replied without raising his head while busy with the work at hand.

"Two bowls of lo mein"

"Mother, let's taste the taste of lo mein." Tang Shiyu took out two pairs of chopsticks in the chopstick cage, took out the handkerchief in his arms and wiped it, and handed a pair to Xu's mother.

If it had been in the past, she would never have been so particular. But now that she has that condition, she must be poor.

"Cheng, when the small courtyard is finished, my mother will make you something to eat." The smile on Xu's mother's face also grew.

"Mother's everything is delicious!" Tang Shiyu didn't coax Xu's mother to be happy, but seriously, Xu's mother can fry a plate of simple green vegetables into a state banquet that can make people's appetite move.

"Old sister, your son is really filial!" For the subtle ancients, Tang Shiyu's words made people's hearts burn when they heard it, so the boss was busy and teased.

"The boss is polite, this little brother of yours is also a good one." Mother Xu pointed to a young man who was also busy on the side, and saw that the other party's face was seven points similar to the boss, and at first glance it was father and son.

"This kid in my family doesn't have much talent, he just eats after me." The boss said modest words, but the expression on his face was proud.

As a parent, who doesn't like others to praise their children, praising their children is equivalent to praising his achievements, because every child is a parent's achievement.

"Boss, you guys sell everything here!" Tang Shiyu looked at the stalls selling all kinds of goods in the distance and thought thoughtfully.

"That's not it, if you want to say it's lively, it must be that we are lively in Xicheng, and the vegetable market in Dongcheng is all for nobles." The subtext of the boss is that Xicheng is mass consumption.

"There are a lot of people selling things here, there are a lot of people buying things, and the streets are so clean, which shows that all the stall owners are their own people!" Tang Shiyu seemed to talk casually about homely things.

"The streets are cleaned every day, and we consciously take away the mess." The boss didn't think much about it, he just thought that Tang Shiyu was curious.

"It's hard for you to do this business, and it's hard to think that the business is not good! This official master is also a good person, and he actually paid out of his own pocket. Tang Shiyu's first sentence was to compliment the other party, and the latter sentence was meaningless.

"What's good or bad is to support a family. Cleaning the streets is all paid by us small vendors, and every morning the officials in the yamen come to collect the money, but they don't collect much. "Everyone knows these things, and the boss feels that there is nothing to hide.

asked what she wanted, Tang Shiyu opened the topic, asking too much would only make people think that she was here to inquire about the news.

After chatting a few more words, until the noodles were served, the young man put a bowl of noodles in front of Tang Shiyu, and she casually replied with a thank you, but the other party's face turned red for a while.

Tang Shiyu secretly sighed, he was really an innocent young man.

After putting a mouthful of noodles in her mouth, she was silent on her face, but she couldn't help but complain in her heart, where is this lo mein, it is simply a waste of the word "lo mein".

In her previous life, before the end of the world, she had eaten all kinds of lo mein, and she had never eaten such unpalatable, but she couldn't say that! If she dared to say such a thing, the knife in the boss's hand would definitely wipe her neck.

With the attitude of not wasting it, she closed her eyes and devoured a bowl of noodles. When the boss in the distance saw it, he nodded secretly, he had a feeling that his craftsmanship was affirmed.

This also made him have a good impression of Tang Shiyu, until after she left, the boss showed an aunt smile on his face and asked her to come back next time.

And after Tang Shiyu heard it, he stepped on his left foot and almost fell down with his right foot.

A little episode passed like this, and the rest of the time was to buy and buy, and everything had to be bought. Pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, until the four hands of the two of them couldn't hold anything, they chose to turn back.

After arriving at the small courtyard, they put down their things and went to Buzhuang non-stop, but they didn't even have a bed cover. If you don't hurry up, you can only sleep on the bare board at night.

Even if two quilts cost two taels of silver, the main reason is that cotton is too expensive. Cotton has not yet been cultivated on a large scale in this era, which has also led to high prices.

In the end, I pulled a few feet of cloth, mainly because Tang Shiyu only had a men's dress, which was washed at night for the past few days, and had to be worn the next day whether he did it or not.

In modern times, it is normal to dehydrate from the washing machine and wear it the next day. But this is in ancient times, and you can only wring it out desperately one night, so that you can do it faster the next day.

When I passed by the grain store, I bought a few catties of rice, not because they didn't want to buy more, but because they really didn't have much money, only more than five taels of silver left, and they needed money everywhere else.

On the way back, Xu's mother was not very interested, and she didn't have to guess to know the problem of worrying about money. Tang Shiyu didn't promise anything to the other party, and before she made money, no matter what she said, she couldn't comfort the other party.

She can only talk about other topics casually to distract the other party.

For Xu's mother, she regarded the other party as her own family in her heart, if it weren't for herself, Xu's mother would not have suffered so much with her.

On the contrary, Xu's mother treats her as her own life, no matter what she does, Xu's mother never asks her why she knows this. At the beginning, she would be cautious about what she did or thought, and she must have been a fool before.

But she later found that no matter what she said or did, Xu's mother did not have any suspicions. It seems that the other party has a kind of fascination with her, and she feels a lot of pressure.

This bottomless trust touched her very much.

How many people can do this, even if it is impossible for biological parents to do it.
