When going to bed at night, Xiaoru said to Xiaoruo: "Sister, your hands are split like that, apply some clam oil at night, don't be reluctant, I'll buy it for you when it's gone." ”

Xiao Ruo laughed unnaturally twice: "It's so squeamish, when the weather is warm in spring, the cracks on your hands will be fine." ”

Xiaoru persuaded: "It's not a question of being squeamish or not, it's that your hands hurt uncomfortably when you dip them in cold water, and besides, I didn't buy you clam oil before, so why don't you keep it." ”

Xiao Ruo tightened the quilt for her sisters: "Forget it, it's too cold, I don't want to get up when I lie down, and I'll wipe it tomorrow." ”

When Xiaoru heard her say this, he gave up and closed his eyes and went to sleep.

When I got up the next day, the weather was even more gloomy, Xiao Ruo looked at the sky: "I'm afraid it's going to snow this day, Xiao Ru, don't go out of the stall today." ”

Xiaoru quickly put on his clothes: "Let's wait until breakfast to see, if the weather doesn't improve a little after breakfast, I won't go out of the stall." ”

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Xiao Ru went to the room to wipe clam oil, and stood in the wind every day to set up a stall without rubbing some clam oil, no matter how good the skin was, it would be blown out, and this little money would not be saved.

As a result, when I opened the clam oil box I used, it was empty, and Xiaoru shouted outside the door: "Sister, where do you put your clam oil?" Give me a little, mine is out of use. ”

After a few seconds, Xiao Ruo replied: "My clam oil has long run out, so I didn't apply it when you asked me to smear some clam oil last night, and it's not good to tell you the truth, I'm afraid you will spend money." ”

Xiaoru walked out of the room: "It's all used up, so bring a few boxes back by the way when you buy goods today." ”

He asked again: "What about the eldest sister's alabaster, give it to me first for emergencies." ”

Xiao Ruozhi hesitated and said: "I came in a hurry, and I forgot the bottle of alabaster at home." ”

Xiaoru said regretfully: "Have you forgotten your home? When you go back, you won't even have a bottle left! ”

Xiao Ruo didn't say anything, she didn't dare to tell Xiao Ru that the day after she took the bottle of alabaster back, she was robbed by her sister-in-law to be filial to her mother-in-law, saying that she didn't give her mother-in-law any good things, so she was beaten by Liu Hui for this.

For breakfast, a pot of cabbage boiled noodles, Xiao Ruo cooked a boiled egg for Xiao Jian according to Xiao Ru's previous explanation.

After breakfast, Xiao Chu went to the village near the county seat to buy chickens and ducks.

The two sisters analyzed the weather for a long time, and felt that it seemed to be a little brighter than when they just got up, I'm afraid it won't rain today.

So the two sisters divided into two ways, Xiao Ruo went to the county seat to buy cotton wool and cloth, Xiao Ru took Xiao Jian to Hanzheng Street to buy goods first, and by the way, he approved thirty boxes of clam oil, and then went to set up a stall.

Yesterday's goods were almost sold, and today they must be replenished, otherwise there will be too few clothes, and people will not want to come and take a look.

Xiao Ruo hurried to the county seat, first went to the supply and marketing cooperative, pulled the fabric, and then took it to the tailor shop to do it.

She also knows tailoring, of course, she can only do the appearance of these rural people wearing a large placket, but it is too slow to do it by hand without a sewing machine, and there are still a few days before the New Year, and it will be handed over to the tailor shop to do, not to mention that the craftsmanship is better than her own, and the speed is fast, which can ensure that the younger brothers and sisters can wear new clothes on the day of the New Year.

The fabric used to make duvet covers and sheets is small, if you buy it at the bazaar.

There are homespun cloth spun by the villagers in the bazaar, the color is relatively single, only blue and black, but it is still possible to make bed sheets and quilt covers, thick, used, the only drawback is that the color fades very badly, because their own dyeing is not as good as the machine dyeing, but it is cheap, and there is no cloth ticket.

When buying the fabric of bed sheets and quilt covers, Xiao Ruo thought about it, two people had to sleep on each bed, and the single bed was really a little tight.

If you want to change the bed into a double bed, you have to buy a duvet cover and sheets for a double bed.

Two quilt covers and sheets plus four beds of cotton wool, Xiao Ruo, a thin woman, couldn't take it, so she first bought two five-pound quilts and cotton cloth for bed sheets and quilt covers.

When I got home, it was already twelve o'clock at noon, and Xiao Ruo put down his things and started making lunch.

At half past twelve o'clock at noon, he didn't see Xiao Ruo's figure, Liu Dayong was uneasy, Xiao Ruo came to bring him food from one to twelve o'clock in the past two days, and Xiao Ru went home for dinner, but now it's so late, I haven't seen Xiao Ruo's figure yet, shouldn't something have happened, could it be that Liu Hui came to the door to arrest Xiao Ruo back?

Liu Dayong couldn't hold his breath anymore, turned his head to look at Xiaoru, but didn't see anything unusual about her, and was trying to sell his clothes to customers.

Then it shouldn't be that Liu Hui came to the city to arrest Xiao Ruo back, so why hasn't Xiao Ruo come yet?

After another twenty or so minutes, Liu Dayong was almost restless, and saw that there were not many customers in Xiaoru, so he explained to the vendors around him, helped him look at the stalls, walked quickly to Xiaoru, and asked eagerly: "Xiaoru, why hasn't your sister come to change you home for dinner at this time?" ”

Xiao Ru was so busy that she forgot the time, and asked with her big eyes, "What time is it?" ”

Liu Dayong sighed very speechlessly: "It's almost one o'clock!" ”

Xiao Jian pulled the hem of Xiao Ru's clothes, raised his head and said pitifully, "Second sister, I'm so hungry." ”

Xiao Ru took out a dollar from his pocket and shouted at the boss who was selling baked cakes not far away, "Uncle, come have a sweet baked cake." ”

"Howler!" The uncle who sold the baked cakes responded happily, and ran over with a freshly baked sweet baked cake and handed it to Xiaoru.

Xiaoru pointed at Xiaojian with his chin: "Give it to him." ”

The boss gave the biscuits to Komi again.

Komi took a small bite regardless of the heat.

Xiaoru handed a dollar to the uncle and reminded Xiaojian: "There is syrup in the baked cake, you eat slowly, be careful that your tongue is burned." ”

Xiao Jian nodded while eating the baked cake fragrantly.

Uncle Baked Cake found change for Xiaoru, and went back to his stall.

Xiao Ru said to Liu Dayong at this time: "Eldest sister went back to the county this morning to buy cheap fabrics, it may have taken time to choose, so I haven't come back yet, Brother Dayong, don't worry, my sister will be fine." ”

Liu Dayong was a little embarrassed when he was told that he was in his heart, smiled, and said, "I'm not worried that your eldest sister will have something, but I just think it's strange, so I'm here to ask." ”

The two of them were talking, and Xiao Jian pointed to the right: "Second sister, eldest sister is here!" ”

Xiao Ru and Liu Dayong all turned their heads to look, and sure enough, Xiao Ruo came over with a padded jacket wrapped in the food for Liu Dayong.

Liu Dayong hurriedly returned to his stall, took the food sent by Xiao Ruo, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you go to the county seat in the morning and come back now?" ”

Xiao Ruo replied with a smile: "There are so many brothers and sisters who have to buy fabrics for clothes, it takes a lot of time, and after buying the fabrics, you have to send them to the tailor shop to do them, and then you have to buy the fabrics for bed sheets and quilt covers...... A lot of things, how can you come back so quickly. ”

Liu Dayong breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as it's safe, I'm afraid that you will have an accident on the road." ”
