Chapter 8 Buying Candy Comes to Town for the First Time
It was the second daughter-in-law of the Shi family, Li, who gave birth to a son soon after entering the door, and was now the only boy among the grandchildren of the old Shi family.
"Second sister-in-law, Liuli just came to talk to me." Pearl said timidly.
Li Shi walked straight to the two of them, glanced at the opened caramel candy, and sneered: "Pearl, I didn't say you, although this caramel is not a valuable thing, in the end it is also our family, you can give it to people at every turn, you don't have to ask people to say that you turn your elbow outward, blindly helping your mother's family." ”
"Second sister-in-law, I ......" Pearl blushed meanly.
Liuli stuffed the caramel back: "Sister, I'm done, you can take it back." ”
After speaking, he didn't look at Li, turned around and left.
She didn't want to quarrel with the Li family, even if she was happy for a while, it was her sister who turned around and suffered.
Back at home, Ruri found a rag bag, let Amber and Coral lead the way, and went with them to the place where the hawthorn was picked yesterday.
Although it was the late autumn season, no one picked this thing at all because it was sour. Looking at the red fruits hanging on the tree, she seemed to see copper coins beckoning to her.
"You two be careful, don't prick your hands."
"Got it."
Although the two children are small, they are also wild, and picking hawthorn is no slower than glass, and after a while, they will pick a full bag.
At the end of the day, the three of them picked a lot of hawthorns, and piled them all in a corner of the house, which was full of a lot of space. Now that it's cold, no amount of heaps will go bad.
Liuli went to wash her hands and cook, and the amber sighed at the pile of hawthorns.
"What's wrong?" Ruri was amused by his appearance.
"Hey, when will I finish eating all these hawthorns," and the taste is still so unpalatable, Amber said in his heart.
"It's not for you to eat", Ruri scratched his little nose, "Sister is taking it for money." ”
"Money?" Amber was surprised, and a fool would buy it.
Liuli didn't explain, and went to her own business.
On the second day, Liuli arrived at Aunt Liu's house next door at the agreed time, and Aunt Liu's son drove a donkey cart to send the two to the town.
This is the first time that Liuli went out in ancient times, and he looked around with natural curiosity, and when he reached the halfway point, he saw a house hidden under the bald branches.
"Whose house is this, and how did you build the house so well?" Ruri couldn't help but ask curiously.
Aunt Liu smiled when she heard this: "This house has been there a few years ago, and I heard that it is a special courtyard built by a large family in the capital, which is specially designed for leisure and entertainment." ”
Mountain village holiday villa, I didn't expect the ancients to pay attention to this, Liuli understood.
In the middle of the morning, when they finally arrived in the town, Liuli got off the bus at a bustling market, and Aunt Liu and her son went to their in-laws' house to eat and drink, and explained that Liuli was still waiting for them here in the afternoon.
Liuli responded, happily strolling around the market.
If you want to say that this ancient bazaar, it does have some meaning, although it is not as lively and prosperous as the modern one, but it is also a variety of shops and stalls, eating things, rouge gouache, cloth and clothing.
Liuli walked around, and I really didn't see anyone selling rock sugar gourds.
She also went to find a dim sum shop, but she saw the eight-treasure sweet cheese in the mouth of the coral girl, but there was no rock sugar gourd.
Completely relieved, Liuli inquired and found a stall selling caramel candy, asked the price, and said that it was two pennies and one tael. She didn't say anything at first, and then went to a few other candy sellers to inquire, shop around, and found that the price of this one was quite pertinent, although it was not the cheapest, it was indeed the best quality in the same price range.
There are two companies that cost two or two, and the sugar looks dirty and seems to be a lot of impurities.
Liuli had a total of 16 yuan left by her eldest sister, she was ruthless, and she spent 10 yuan to buy half a catty at once, and she relied on the vendor to spare her, so she left satisfied.
There are still six cents left, Liuli doesn't dare to spend it anymore anyway, I don't know if the sugar gourd business can be done, it's going to be spent all at once, and I have to ask my big sister to help, her life in her mother's house is sad enough.
