Chapter 8: Plums
Chen Ping didn't notice Liu Cheng's strangeness at all, because in her opinion, pulling down her hand is really nothing, modern people, how normal it is to meet and shake hands, there is nothing to talk about taking advantage of.
As for Liu Cheng, although his original intention was to change, he was made the decision by Chen Ping, but he didn't blame Chen Ping, he could see that Chen Ping was also for his good.
Liu Cheng wanted to retract his hand, but Chen Ping pulled him and started looking for other shops, and Liu Cheng didn't know how to react for a while.
No, he is a man, he can't take advantage of Chen Ping, thinking of this, Liu Cheng used a skill and gently broke free of Chen Ping's hand.
Chen Ping didn't care, she was trying to pull Liu Cheng out, and now that she came out, she should let go.
Liu Cheng led Chen Ping to the other two stores, one for nine taels and the last one for eight taels, and the angry Chen Ping pulled Liu Chengcheng away, unwilling to say more to them.
In fact, Chen Ping doesn't understand the market here, yes, the people in the tunzi raise a chicken is expensive, but the salt is even more expensive. This is not her time, salt is ordinary, salt is a precious thing here.
You must know that Taoyuan Town and the outside are not circulating, and many things are scarce, especially salt, which is necessary for life, and no one can leave it. That's why the price of salt is expensive, because there's a place where you can produce a little salt, so that the town won't run out of salt. Otherwise, this town, Tunzi, would have had a problem because there was no salt.
Chen Ping is still a modern thinker, and feels that Liu Cheng suffers, so he does not let Liu Cheng change.
"Let's go to the first one to change, the house is running out of salt."
Liu Cheng said a little embarrassedly, if you can, no one wants to look at people's faces, but people are under the eaves, and they can't help but bow their heads.
If his family affairs are successful, he will need salt for treats in the future, and this salt will become more and more expensive, and he is afraid that if he does not change it at this time, it will be more difficult to change it in the future.
"No, don't worry about the salt, I'll get it for you. Isn't it salt? What I have is, let's not change it. ”
Chen Ping was angry, although she didn't know the situation here, but she had thought about it, she had a stone tablet and could bring things over. According to what the stele told him, it was the first time that she could bring five catties of things, so she could bring salt.
Liu Cheng looked at Chen Ping with some surprise, he didn't hear it wrong, right? Chen Ping said she could get salt.
"Brother Liu, believe me, I will definitely get you salt, let's not exchange it for chicken."
Chen Ping looked at Liu Cheng and said very firmly, she decided to bring Liu Cheng salt tomorrow.
Liu Cheng looked at Chen Ping, Chen Ping's face was serious, it didn't look like he was talking big, and it wasn't like deceiving him, he nodded, he believed in Chen Ping, and at the same time he felt a trace of gratitude in his heart, Chen Ping's sister is really a sincere person.
Chen Ping didn't know what Liu Cheng was thinking, if he knew, he could only sigh, this person's mind was too simple.
Chen Ping followed Liu Cheng to the place where the cloth was sold, and the final result was that Chen Ping pulled Liu Cheng out again, she didn't want Liu Cheng to exchange the chicken for the cloth, not because she was reluctant, but because she felt that the clothes made of the cloth here were not good-looking.
She planned to go back and buy a few suitable clothes for Liu Cheng, although she was not a big money, she could still afford this thing.
Liu Cheng followed Chen Ping with a little blush, Chen Ping said that she could get the cloth, he was a little reluctant, but now Chen Ping said yes, he didn't force it.
Although he was held by Chen Ping several times, he could see that Chen Ping was a hearty girl and had no other thoughts, which made him a little embarrassed, but he did not feel embarrassed, nor did he feel that Chen Ping was frivolous.
Chen Ping followed Liu Cheng to look around, the street here sells things like that kind of small stalls, you can give money, you can exchange things, it's very lively.
Chen Ping looked down and found that the currency in circulation here was silver dollars.
You must know that the silver dollar was out of circulation at the end of the thirties, so the time is just right.
But in this way, her money can't be spent here, but it's okay, she has a Taoyuan monument, and she has something, so she doesn't have to worry about not being able to exchange it.
Chen Ping watched Liu Cheng change out the insoles, mushrooms and other things, and change some daily necessities.
Chen Ping blocked it, anyway, there are a lot of these things in the tunzi, and she can change them if she needs to.
After the change, the two of them went back with the chicken.
Originally, Chen Ping saw that there were a lot of food sellers, Liu Cheng wanted to change one or two things for her, but she didn't let her, the Liu family had a hard time, she didn't want Liu Cheng to break the bank, she wanted to change it, and she would just exchange it for something herself in the future.
When they arrived at the entrance of the tunzi, they met a man.
A woman, it should be said that she is a young girl, about seventeen or eighteen, about the same height as Chen Ping, but she looks a little thin, Chen Ping estimates that the other party is only about ninety pounds, which is the kind of model figure that modern people envy.
Her facial features are delicate, but her skin is a little dark, and she has the simplicity of a peasant family.
It's really good, why are people so slim, how can they be like themselves, Chen Ping looked down at her somewhat thick thighs, she has walked so many ways today, and I don't know if she will lose weight.
"Brother Chengzi is back, why did you get the chicken back, didn't you get the salt?"
The young girl laughed when she saw Liu Chengcheng, of course, she also glanced at Chen Ping a few times by the way, and nodded at Chen Ping.
"Meizi, why are you here? I didn't change the salt this time. ”
Liu Cheng shouted, but he didn't say why he didn't get the salt.
"Is the shopkeeper not going to change it for you? They're really, and they think they're from the town and look down on us. Don't be afraid, I'll go to town tomorrow, find my uncle and tell me, he is familiar with the shopkeeper, he can give me a chicken can be exchanged for a catty and two taels of salt, and I will change it for you. ”
Meizi hurriedly comforted Liu Cheng and took care of the matter.
Chen Ping watched silently beside her, she looked at this meaning, this girl named Meizi seemed to be a little interesting to Liu Cheng.
But it's no wonder that Liu is handsome, sturdy, diligent, and has a good personality, and it's normal for someone to like it.
"No need, Meizi, let's go back first."
Liu Cheng shook his head and refused Meizi's kindness, he didn't say anything about Chen Ping helping to get salt, because he didn't know how much salt Chen Ping could help get it, in case he could get a little, he told Chen Ping, others also wanted to find Chen Ping to get salt, but Chen Ping didn't, isn't that embarrassing?
If Chen Ping really changed the salt for him, he could change the plums privately if he needed them.
"Okay, grandma is in a hurry."
Meizi didn't say much, nodded, and secretly glanced at Liu Cheng again, and the three of them walked back together.
When the three of them arrived at Liu Cheng's house, Grandma Ma saw that the chicken was brought back again, and Liu Cheng did not change the salt or cloth, she was a little strange and asked.
Liu Cheng didn't say much, so she didn't ask.
She understands her grandson, if she doesn't change, there must be a reason, if her grandson doesn't say it now, it must be difficult to say, and she will say hello when no one is around.
