Chapter 36: The House Is Built (2)
"Girl, walk slowly."
The voice of the butcher stall owner also reached Mu Chen's ears from behind.
……
At the entrance of the ready-to-wear store:
"Jun'er, let's buy two more sets of clothes, I can't stand the ones I made for you."
Mu Chen made a dress for Mu Jun a few days ago, the feet were okay, there was no embroidery, it was too big and too wide, Mu Jun wore it like a child stealing adults' clothes.
"Sister, I already have three sets of clothes, but you only have two, sister, you can go and buy one."
Mu Jun thought about his three sets of clothes, and decisively decided not to buy them, a set of clothes would cost at least one hundred and fifty coppers, and if he saved a few sets, he could buy a good set for his sister.
But where would Mu Chen let Mu Jun get his wish, Mu Chen took Mu Jun and went to the ready-to-wear store where he bought the futon.
"Shopkeeper, you call a junior to pick out two sets of clothes for Jun'er that don't exceed three hundred coppers."
Mu Chen pulled Mu Jun in front of the shopkeeper, and Mu Jun couldn't struggle.
"Okay, girl, if you still want to buy it, then I'll have someone take you to pick what you like."
The shopkeeper looked, oh, it's a big fish, and the service is considerate.
"Jun'er, go and pick two sets with Xiao Er, only those that exceed are allowed, and those that are not allowed to be less."
Mu Chen looked at Mu Jun, and then he found a junior to pick out his own clothes.
The clothes in the ready-to-wear store are exquisite, and Mu Chen can't put them down, but in the end, he still picked out three suitable sets.
After settling the account for himself at the counter, Mu Jun picked out the clothes, and Mu Jun only picked two sets.
In the end, the five sets of clothes of the two were only one or two dollars of silver.
Watching Mu Chen spend money happily, Mu Jun was in pain, my sister is too loser, what should I do?
"Jun'er, don't be in a daze, we have to buy something else."
Mu Chen looked at Mu Jun who was in a daze, there was still a dull hair on his head, there was already meat on his face, and there was no salallow yellow, it looked like he wanted to pinch it.
"Oh."
Mu Jun followed Mu Chen at this time.
Subsequently, the two went to the rice shop to sweep around, Mu Chen directly bought a hundred catties of polished rice, because he couldn't take so many things, Mu Chen stopped sweeping, and discussed the things with the rice shop owner and put them in the rice shop.
After the things were placed in the rice shop, Mu Chen was relaxed, and went to the vegetable market to sweep again, and bought them all the way, spending three taels and five dollars of silver.
In the end, Mu Chen took some vegetables and went to the rice shop, while Mu Jun went to stop the ox cart.
……
"Boss, tell me how much copper is a pound of this mung bean?"
When Mu Jun came back, what he saw was that Mu Chen was asking the owner of the rice shop how much mung beans were a pound of copper.
Mu Jun hurriedly interrupted.
"Sister, I stopped the ox cart and came over, let's move things on the ox cart."
Mu Jun got out of the ox cart and quickly carried the back basket containing the ribs onto the ox cart.
"Okay, let's go back quickly, it's not too early."
Mu Chen looked up at the sky, the sun was shining, the house was going to be built this evening, and he would go back to cook, and the time would be about the same.
Mu Chen also joined the army of moving things, and the things were quickly loaded onto ox carts.
Mu Chen and Mu Jun also got into the ox cart and left.
……
The ox cart was swaying, and the speed was okay, and when they arrived at Mujia Village, it was time to eat, and after thinking about it, Uncle Lin and his party had not eaten yet, so Mu Chen and Mu Jun quickly moved their things down.
Back outside the thatched house, Mu Chen set up the pot and boiled the noodles, then he instructed Mu Jun, "Jun'er, you go and call Uncle Lin and his party over to eat noodles, just say: I will be at noon today, and I will invite everyone to eat in the evening." ”
Mu Chen patted Mu Jun's head.
"Come on, I'm going to prepare the condiment for the noodles."
Mu Jun then went to ask Uncle Lin and his party to come over and eat noodles.
When Uncle Lin and his party came over, Mu Chen had already put Zuo in the bowl, and there was a lot of oil and salt.
"Miss Mu, you are really willing, if we eat noodles at home, we put too much oil and salt, and we will be pulled by the tigress at home, don't you say?"
The group of people behind Lin Xin laughed.
"Uncle Lin, don't be joking, the noodles are going to be lumped."
Mu Chen brought a bowl over and sandwiched the noodles in the pot into the bowl.
"Miss Mu, don't be busy, we'll just clip it ourselves."
A strong man walked over, Mu Chen gave him the chopsticks in his hand, and Mu Chen then went to the thatched hut to rest.
"Sister, my enlightenment teacher has finished teaching."
Mu Jun looked at Mu Chen and took out the book he had brought back.
"So fast?"
Mu Chen looked at the four books, if they were all so fast, it would be okay.
"The teacher has tested me, saying that I have passed, let me take the book back, and the teacher will take me to buy it in the future."
Mu Jun looked at Mu Chen, and Mu Chen took a silver ticket out, worth ten taels.
"Jun'er, since your teacher said that he took you to buy books, that's fine, take the ten taels of silver, and my sister will buy you books."
Mu Chen took out ten taels of silver, without blinking his eyes, although the silver was not much, but who made Mu Jun her younger brother, for the family, never have to be stingy, let alone the only family.
"Thank you, sister."
Mu Jun lowered his head and took the ten taels of silver tickets given by Mu Chen.
"Study hard, you will have a future in the future, you have to cover your sister."
Mu Chen looked at Mu Jun in front of him, a little boy, who was beginning to take shape.
"Sister, I must be admitted to Xiucai before the age of twelve."
Mu Jun looked at Mu Chen with a promising expression.
"My sister supports you, but, at the age of twelve, my sister just needs you to be admitted to Tongsheng."
Mu Chen thought about it, and then told Mu Jun that it would be good to be admitted to Tongsheng.
In ancient times, children had a feeling of graduating from elementary school in Mu Chen's eyes.
"Sister, believe me, I will definitely be admitted to Xiucai at the age of twelve."
Mu Jun has a great pursuit of the goals he has set, and he will be admitted if he says that he will be admitted.
"Sister believes in you, Jun'er, just do your best."
Mu Chen finally patted Mu Jun's head.
When Mu Chen came out of the thatched house, Uncle Lin and his party had already gone to work, put away the bowls, took them to the stream, and washed them off with Mu Jun, and then Mu Chen took out the meat he bought in the morning.
The fat meat was cut into cubes by Mu Chen, put it in the pot, and refined the oil, not to mention how fragrant the oil residue was.
"Jun'er, bring a pot, I'll fill it with grease."
Mu Chen's first pot of oil should be out of the pot.
……
Small Theatre:
Mu Jun: "Sister, we should go back." ”
Looking at Mu Chen, who was asking the price of mung beans, he was helpless.
Mu Chen: "Oh, let's go!" ”
Mu Chen and Mu Jun left, leaving the rice shop owner messy in the wind.
Haven't you already asked about the price of mung beans, don't you really want to buy mung beans?
Why is it gone, my business.
"Boom ......"
