Chapter 4 Rush to the Gathering

Jiang Wei glanced at the heavy back basket behind him, "No." After speaking, he walked out of the yard with Xiao An in his arms.

When passing by a house with an open door, a man in a light brown linen robe sitting in the courtyard was weaving a bamboo basket, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, he looked up and saw that it was them, his face was happy, and he immediately asked, "Qingnan, go to the town to sell meat again?" ”

"Hmm." He replied lightly.

Li Gen hurriedly walked out, "Give Uncle ten catties." ”

"It's almost the end of the year, and the family hasn't bought meat yet, so they've been shouting for a few days that they want to eat meat."

Xiao Qingnan put down the basket when he heard this, casually took two pieces of meat and handed them to him, Li Gen counted fifty copper coins and gave it to him, "Qingnan, give you fifty wen first, and give you the remaining fifty wen another day." ”

Xiao Qingnan seemed to be accustomed to it, took the copper coin, and nodded.

Seeing this, Jiang Wei frowned, this man is too easy to talk to.

She walked over and snatched a piece of meat directly from Li Gen's hand: "This piece, you can buy it another day." ”

The man clearly wanted to pay the bill, and just now she saw that he had enough copper plates in his cloth bag.

Li Gen was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Qingnan and said, "Qingnan, this?" ”

She glanced at him meaningfully, if he dared to agree, he wouldn't have thought about it today.

Xiao Qingnan seemed to have some feelings: "I'll buy it another day." Then he picked up the basket and walked away.

Jiang Wei glanced at Li Gen lightly, hooked the corners of her lips, mocked nakedly, and then hugged Xiao An and followed behind Xiao Qingnan.

Li Gen's face was ugly, and he scolded in a low voice: "Slut! ”

……

The two of them didn't meet anyone all the way, and when they got out of the village, they crossed the mountains and mountains, and the mountain roads were rugged, which was very difficult to walk.

Xiao Qingnan glanced at her unintentionally, seeing that her face was relaxed, her steps were steady, and her body was not bent.

After walking for two hours, I arrived in the town, and the bluestone slabs paved the ground, and the houses of different heights sat on both sides, and the vendors gathered in front of the door, shouting and shouting, and it was noisy.

Jiang Wei, who was accustomed to purity, was a little uncomfortable, Xiao An saw that her eyebrows were wrinkled into a straight line, and she covered her ears with two small hands very intimately, "Mother, so that it won't be noisy." ”

The voice was much quieter, Jiang Wei felt a lot better, and kissed him lightly on the cheek, "An'er is so good." ”

Xiao Qingnan's eyes darkened, and his dark eyes looked at her, why did this person change his personality so much.

"You take the dog to the front noodle stall to eat noodles." As he spoke, he gave her all the fifty copper coins on his body.

Jiang Wei shook her head, "Buy some buns first, cushion your stomach, and eat them together when the meat is sold out." ”

As he spoke, he walked towards the bun shop not far away. "Uncle, how do you sell buns?"

"Two vegetable buns and one meat bun." Lao An looked at her with a smile and said.

"Four meat buns, two vegetable buns." Jiang Wei counted five copper plates for him.

The old man took it and asked, "Pack together, or separate." ”

"Separate."

The old man nodded, wrapped the bun separately with leaves, and handed it to her.

Jiang Wei turned her head to Xiao Qingnan and said, "Put it in the back basket." ”

Xiao Qingnan took it, took a meat bun and gave it to Xiao An, and put the rest of the backhand in the back basket.

The two of them found an open space, placed the basket on the ground, and then stood aside in silence.

Xiao Qingnan stretched out his hand to take Xiao An, who was eating steamed buns, and said to Jiang Wei, "You eat first." ”

"Hmm."

Jiang Wei picked up the vegetable bag in the basket and ate it very quickly.

After eating the two vegetable buns, Jiang Wei took Xiao An, "You eat." ”

Xiao Qingnan was holding the meat bun, his heart was a little complicated, he just thought that the vegetable bun was for him.

After only eating a meat bun, Xiao Qingnan didn't eat it. Jiang Wei was puzzled, "It's not delicious?" ”

Then his face was serious: "You are injured and need to be fed." As he spoke, he bent down and forcibly stuffed the meat bun in the back basket to him.

Seeing that he had finished eating, she looked away.

At this time, a woman with a basket looked through the meat in the basket with her hand, "Is this wild boar meat fresh?" ”

"Killed yesterday." South Hsiao Ching Road.

"How much is a pound?"

"Seventeen pounds." Jiang Wei took over and said.

Passing by the meat stall just now, she paid attention to it, and the price of pork was about fifteen wen a catty.

"It's too expensive, can you have less."

The woman also knew that wild boar meat was rare, and the meat quality was much better than that of domestic pigs.

"How much do you give?" Jiang Wei is very unfamiliar with bargaining.

"Thirteen Wen!"

"Not for sale." She didn't want to say no outright.

The woman was taken aback by her serious tone, her face was unhappy, and she said loudly: "Why are you like this, if you don't sell it, you won't sell it, what kind of murder." So saying, he took the basket and left.

Jiang Weixing's apricot eyes flashed with a hint of puzzlement, looked at Xiao Qingnan and asked, "I murdered her just now?" ”

Seeing him hum and frown, she was already normal just now.

Xiao An whispered: "Mother, you have to laugh like me, so that people will buy meat." He grinned as he spoke, revealing two small tiger teeth.

Just now, the mother's expression seemed to be about to eat people, which frightened him.

Seeing this, the corners of Jiang Wei's mouth stiffly rose, and then her face was expressionless.

A smile flashed in Xiao Qingnan's eyes, he actually felt that she was a little cute at this time.

Not long after, someone came to ask, it was an uncle, wearing a dark blue jacket, pointing to the meat in the back basket and asking, "Little brother, how do you sell this meat?" ”

This time, Jiang Wei stood next to her and didn't say anything, she also knew that she was not a business material.

Xiao Qingnan said: "Sixteen wen a catty, no bargaining." ”

Uncle thought about it, this wild boar is only a penny more expensive than domestic pigs, and the price is cheap.

"Weigh me five pounds." Xiao Qingnan asked the vendor next door to borrow a rod and weigh it, and said skillfully, "Five catties and two taels, count you five catties." As he spoke, he handed him the meat.

"Thank you, little brother." The uncle smiled and counted the copper plates and handed them to him.

Xiao Qingnan handed them to Jiang Wei, and Jiang Wei put them in a cloth bag.

After guarding for half an hour, there was only one pig's head left in the back basket.

Xiao Qingnan didn't keep it anymore, put the basket on his back, and a few people went to the street to buy what they needed.

went to Buzhuang and bought Xiao An a pair of shoes to wear on his feet.

Then Jiang Wei bought two sets of thick jackets for Xiao An and Xiao Qingnan, and then bought two quilts and two pieces of cloth, which cost almost two taels of silver.

After putting the things in the back basket, Jiang Wei was about to go to the grain village to buy rice, but suddenly Xiao Qingnan took her hand and said, "You also buy two." ”

"I have." There are many clothes in the original body, and the fabric is not bad.

Xiao Qingnan pulled her and didn't let go, it seemed that she wouldn't let go if she didn't buy it.

Seeing this, the proprietress of Buzhuang narrowed her eyes into a line, smiled with a smile on her face, and stepped forward and said, "Sister, your father-in-law feels sorry for you, so you can buy two." And the end of the year is approaching, wearing new clothes to celebrate. ”

Jiang Wei's face was a little helpless, "It's just that light green one." ”

Xiao Qingnan took over and said, "Wrap the red one next to you." ”

"Okay, it's three hundred in total."
