Chapter 21 Purchasing
Out of the pharmacy, Li Lanxi put the silver and copper plates into his purse and put them in his arms.
She thought of buying some trauma medicine just now, but Li Xiaohua followed, and it was not very convenient, so she had to lie, deliberately forgot the back basket inside, and now let her wait outside.
"Xiaohua, I forgot to take the basket, I'll go in and get it now, you wait for me here."
Li Xiaohua nodded hurriedly, really, she only cared about being happy, and forgot to carry the basket, but fortunately, my aunt remembered it, otherwise she would have disappeared when she went back to the basket, and she would not be scolded.
When the dog saw Li Lanxi coming in, he smiled and handed over the back basket, "I forgot to take the back basket, I was just about to call you."
Li Lanxi smiled and took the basket, "Little brother, I still want to buy some trauma medicine, my family often goes into the mountains, buy it back for backup."
Yes, since he picks medicine to sell, he must often go into the mountains, and the dog is not ambiguous, and he takes out a few medicine bottles to introduce her.
"These are all trauma medicines, general, five hundred yuan a bottle, this bottle is better, it costs one or two silver, you see which one."
Li Lanxi smacked her tongue, why is this medicine so expensive! Think about it anyway, the money came from the pit, forget it, just buy this one better.
"Then I want this bottle, thank you, little brother" Li Lanxi paid the silver, took the medicine bottle, blocked it with his sleeve, and seemed to put it in his sleeve, but in fact he threw it into the space.
The dog began to think that Li Lanxi would definitely buy a bottle of five hundred yuan, but he didn't expect to buy one or two pieces of silver, so he couldn't help but look at it twice, and thought that it was a peasant girl who didn't have much money.
By the way, I asked the dog about the way, Li Lanxi and Li Xiaohua went straight to the vegetable market, she was going to buy some meat to go back, in fact, she wanted to buy a lot of things now, but in the end she couldn't spend too much money, there are still a lot of coarse grains and potatoes at home, enough to eat, at first a little unaccustomed to eating, during this time, she is also used to it, not like those who have money, she immediately wants to eat white rice, she doesn't have that idea.
The vegetable market is crowded with people, and there are many people on the market day, and people from all over the world have gathered here, and there are many stalls and more people to catch the market.
The two came to the pork stall, and Li Lanxi found an aunt who looked more kind and walked over.
"Auntie, how do you sell this pork" Li Lanxi wanted to ask the price first.
When the woman selling pork saw the customer coming to the door, she greeted enthusiastically, "Girl, look at what kind of you buy, you can rest assured, the price of the aunt is fair, and she will not cheat people."
Li Lanxi looked at the pork and saw that it was quite fresh, pointed to the lard and asked, "What about this, how much is this a catty."
"This eight cents is a pound, buy it back and boil lard, it's fragrant, how much do you want, my aunt will cut it for you, and ensure that the scale is sufficient."
Li Lanxi thought, anyway, this thing can be stored for a long time when the oil is boiled, and the family is often reluctant to put oil, so he decided to buy more, "Auntie help me weigh these two plates, how many count."
The woman was even more happy to hear it, this fat girl looked dressed in general, but she didn't expect to be a big customer, so she hurriedly said "Look, girl, a total of twenty-six catties, two hundred and eight dollars, look at your first time, my aunt will give you a pig liver, I won't charge you money, you remember to come to my aunt next time to take care of business."
Li Lanxi looked at the pig bones on the stall again, it was said that this thing was very cheap, and no one ate it, so he asked tentatively, "Auntie, how do you sell these pig bones."
The woman glanced at the pig bones, "Hey, this thing is cheap, you want it, my aunt will give it to you, don't look at the lack of meat on it, take it back and stew it for a long time, add some vegetables to it, it's still delicious."
Li Lanxi responded with a smile, took out the purse, chose a half tael of broken silver, and handed it over, "Then thank you, auntie."
The woman found two hundred and ninety-two change, Li Lanxi looked at the pile of copper plates and had a headache, and she didn't bother to count them, so she put them directly in her purse.
The woman saw that Li Lanxi didn't count the money, indicating that she trusted her, and she was even more happy in her heart, and she poked a hole in the lard with a sharp knife with her hands and feet, and strung it with a straw rope.
Li Xiaohua quickly snatched the back of the back basket, looked at Li Lanxi and smiled, "Auntie, I'll carry it."
Li Lanxi didn't say anything, more than twenty pounds, she shouldn't have any problems, and the two went to other stalls to look.
After looking around, I bought a bag of brown sugar, spent fifty yuan, bought six strings of sugar gourds, spent twelve yuan, saw the one who sold the buns, spent another six yuan, and bought two big meat buns, the buns were ready to be bought back to her father, three yuan for one, it is quite expensive, the general steamed bun is only one penny, and the meat bun is two pennies, the reason why this sells for three pennies is that one is a big head, and the other is enough.
Li Lanxi handed one of the sugar gourds to Li Xiaohua, "This is your share, you can take it and eat it."
Li Xiaohua shook her head and waved her hand, "I won't eat it now, I'll keep it and go back to eat with everyone."
Li Lanxi didn't ask anymore, wrapped it in oiled paper again, and put it in the back basket.
Li Xiaohua thought about the number of sugar gourds, and counted them as if they were not enough, and asked puzzledly, "Auntie, is the sugar gourd enough?"
Li Lanxi replied indifferently, "It's enough, I don't like to eat this, I don't need it, you children can eat just enough."
Li Xiaohua couldn't help but feel a little strange, her aunt actually said that she didn't like to eat sugar gourds, she remembered that her aunt used to drool for a few days for a string of sugar gourds!!
Okay, Li Lanxi doesn't know what Li Xiaohua thinks, anyway, it was before, and now she really doesn't like these things that children like.
The two of them walked around casually, and they were not very interested in the things they were selling, even if they were interested, she couldn't buy them now, seeing that Li Xiaohua couldn't take her eyes off the bright head rope, she spent six yuan to buy six head ropes, and there were three girls at home, just two for one person. 、
Li Lanxi handed the two to Li Xiaohua, these two were hers, and asked her to take them first.
Li Xiaohua was speechless excitedly, holding the head rope and couldn't put it down.
She used to use Li Lanxi's old head rope, or the hemp rope at home, and it was the first time she received such a colorful new head rope.
"Thank you, aunt...."
Li Lanxi smiled, girls love beauty, and a head rope is happy like this.
Seeing that the time was almost up, he walked to the city gate.
When I arrived at the city gate, Uncle Niu's car was still there, and there was no one in the car.
When Uncle Niu saw the two of them, he quickly knocked the cigarette stick and came over to help load the back basket into the car.
Li Lanxi looked at the sun, the sun was getting hotter and hotter, and when he got home, it was almost noon, so he asked, "Grandpa Niu, when are we leaving?"
Uncle Niu looked around, it seems that no one is going back by car today, and many people will choose to walk back in order to save money.
"Let's go now, it's going to be hotter when it's late, let's go now, and we can catch lunch when we go back."
The three of them rushed back in an ox cart, and along the way, Li Xiaohua was dozing off, maybe she got up too early in the morning, which would be a little unsupportable, thinking that there was no one else in the car anyway, Li Lanxi asked her to sleep on her stomach with the back basket, and the person was asleep, and she kept writing the head rope in her hand, and she was reluctant to let go.
Li Lanxi shook her head, hey, buy a flower for her next time, it makes people feel distressed.
Uncle Niu's driving skills are good, and he staggered several times, Li Lanxi thought that he had to rush to the ditch, but fortunately, nothing happened in the end.
Uncle Niu's face is normal, he can catch this road with his eyes closed, and he is familiar with the road, but there are indeed too many potholes on this road, and shaking is inevitable.
