Chapter 171: Habit Becomes Nature
The Jiang family was so gracious that Yu Shu pursed the corners of his lips and finally took a step back.
"Okay then, ** sister, then I'll be cheeky."
Jiang smiled, called Sister Shu'er, and the group went to Fu Ji.
After eating, Yu Shu's family continued to buy the rest of the things and prepared to return.
Rural people are always reluctant to take a carriage to the market, but there are too many things to buy, and Yu Shu wants to be extravagant. But after asking the price, both Shen and Meng were reluctant to pay the twenty yuan for the carriage and horse, and they were stunned to carry a bunch of things home.
"Mother, just twenty dollars, just take a carriage, and the bad guys can save a little light."
Shen stubbornly walked to the side with something heavy, "What carriage are you sitting in?" I didn't come like this before, and it doesn't make sense to go now. Twenty yuan is enough to buy a lot of tofu to eat, and even the meat can weigh a catty. Why bother to inflate someone's pockets? ”
Shen has always been frugal, and Yu Shu knew that he couldn't screw her, so he turned his head to look at Meng.
"Sister-in-law, you can also help me persuade my mother, it only happens once a year, and it's nothing to sit like this once."
Meng Shi shook his head, "Shu'er, let's walk, it doesn't matter if you can't hold it, my mother and I have a lot of strength, just take more." These things are not as heavy as Chai He, and these are all good things, and I am all strenuous to take them. ”
As he spoke, he was afraid that Yu Shu would not believe it, so he picked up a bag of flour and threw it into the basket on his back, and then he had to go to get the meat and bones.
Seeing this, Yu Shu hurriedly reached out and grabbed the heavy flesh and bones, and nodded resignedly.
"Okay, okay, listen to your walk, okay? Brother Cheng, take your own candy and books by yourself, don't let your mother get tired. ”
With that, the four of them set off towards Qingshui Village.
Yu Shu persuaded a few words, but the two were indifferent, Yu Shu couldn't, so he had to take some things and follow them back.
In fact, if she insisted on taking the carriage, Shen would definitely take it.
However, she also knew that if she took the carriage and spent the twenty wen today, she might have to struggle in Shen's heart for a long time, just like her mother in her previous life.
They are poor, so they are frugal, year after year, day after day, and it becomes an instinctive habit that cannot be broken all at once.
She remembers that in the first few years of her work, although the salary was not particularly high, it was more than that of ordinary workers, and she also contributed articles to some magazines and websites at that time, and there were more or less manuscript fees, and her life was still quite good.
Once, her parents, who collected waste for a living, didn't know what was going on, so they were deceived by someone and defrauded more than 1,800 yuan.
She has always been an optimist, and after she learned that her parents had been deceived by one thousand eight, she counted one thousand eight to her parents at that time, so that they could forget about it. But after that, she heard her mother sigh for half a month, and she always mentioned it from time to time......
Thinking of this, she didn't force Shen to take the carriage.
But she was thinking that maybe she should buy a carriage or something for her family, otherwise after she and Chu Yu left, they would have to personally deliver goods to Fu Ji and even other shops.
The business is getting bigger and bigger, relying on manpower alone, I am afraid that the money will not be earned enough, and people will be tired first.
