169 Safe all the way
This time I walked all over the street.
Sheng Qingqing also bought three bundles of cloth from a cloth store.
It's not a high-quality fabric, but compared to what she is wearing now, it is already a step forward.
It's another season, and the clothes at home are not only old, but also have holes and patches everywhere, and it's long overdue to change. What's more, the two children in the family have grown a lot taller in the past few months because of the nourishment of the spring water, and they really should change their clothes.
Of course, these three bundles of fabrics were finally stuffed into the space by Sheng Qingqing, and when she arrived at the gate of the town to wait, she was a little girl who was empty-handed, looked lonely, and pitiful.
No, it's not empty-handed.
Sheng Qingqing shook a small cloth bag in her hand in a good mood.
This small cloth bag is sewn with the roughest and most common linen, and it is a gray color, it looks really inconspicuous, and it is only the size of a palm, and it is thrown in Sheng Qingqing's hand at this time, which is completely unnoticeable.
And in this small cloth bag, Sheng Qingqing's biggest harvest of this trip is stored...... One.
She bought several seeds from the stall owner, not to mention the more precious cherries and grapes, which had already been collected into the space by Sheng Qingqing, but there were several other types of seeds that were incidental, such as radishes, lettuce, etc., but they were packed in such a small bag, which was used by her to attract people's eyes at this time.
If you come to town and you don't get anything, you're afraid you'll be suspicious.
Sheng Qingqing thought like this, and shook the small cloth bag in her hand more vigorously. Although linen cloth is not beautiful and not soft at all, its advantages are also very obvious - it is tough and strong, and it will not be easily damaged.
She had not waited long at the gate of the town when she saw a familiar figure sitting on an ox cart, slowly approaching from a distance.
"Sister-in-law, you're here!"
Sheng Qingqing hurriedly greeted.
When the woman saw Sheng Qingqing, she also looked relieved.
"You're on time." She saw a lot of passengers who stayed in town and refused to go back. After all, they all spent money to come to town, and there is always a kind of desire to earn the car money back.
As for how to earn it back?
Naturally, the longer you stay in the town, the better, and I wish I could take this opportunity to do everything I wanted to do in the town at once.
And when you meet such a passenger, you have to bother the woman to spend time waiting, in the end, it is a village, although the mouth is stern, but it is not good to really tear the skin because of such a little thing. It's rare to meet Sheng Qingqing so punctual, and even came early.
Thinking of this, the woman's face became a little more relaxed, "Qingqing, can things go smoothly?" Have fun in town today? ”
Sheng Qingqing nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "I'm happy, I not only ate delicious cakes, but also bought the seeds that Uncle Kong requested, and I can plant them in the backyard when I go back!" ”
Shengjia Village is so big, even if it is a trivial matter, if it happens in the morning, it can spread throughout the village in the afternoon. Kong Gaoming's matter, the people of Shengjia Village also know about it. At first, the big guys didn't accept Kong Gaoming well. After all, Kong Gaoming was with a vicious woman like Liu Qiucui, and no one knows if he was also very bad-hearted. But later, the old village chief came forward, which can be regarded as a proof, and the big guy reluctantly allowed Kong Gaoming to live in the village.
It wasn't until Kong Gaoming stayed in the village for so many days that he had more contact with the people in the village when he was busy farming, and the people in the village probably understood that Kong Gaoming was a good-tempered person, so they didn't resist as much as before. A small number of people became friends with Kong Gaoming, although they communicated all day long about matters in the fields.
The woman obviously knew about Kong Gaoming, and she was not too surprised at this time, so she had to say as if to herself, "I didn't expect your Uncle Kong to help you plant a backyard." ”
Sheng Qingqing smiled and didn't answer.
Sure enough, the woman didn't care if Sheng Qingqing answered. In fact, her attention at this time was shifted to Sheng Qingqing's hands. Because the small cloth bag had been swaying, the woman saw the small bag for the first time, and she asked curiously, "Qingqing, what seeds did you buy?" ”
Sheng Qingqing didn't hide it, opened the bag with her hand, poured out some of the seeds in the bag, and put them in her palm.
Because it was a giveaway, the young stall owner didn't tidy it up, just selected a few common seeds, stuffed them into a cloth bag, and was done. Because Sheng Qingqing told him that these seeds were planted in the backyard, it was not so particular.
For people living in rural areas, almost every family will have a small piece of land in their backyard, but they don't expect to grow much food, most of them are just used to grow some fruits and vegetables for their families to have a chance to try, or small dishes such as onions, ginger and garlic.
The woman's house is also quite large, and this small piece of land is reserved in the backyard to grow things. But she didn't have the luxury of going to the town to buy seeds for such a small crop.
In her opinion, it is not enough to plant anything on such a small piece. Most of the common vegetable seeds are available in the village, so why waste money on a ride to town.
As the woman expected, these seeds poured out by Sheng Qingqing are indeed very common seeds, most of which can be found in the village, although there are no in a small number of villages, but if you go to the neighboring villages to look for them, it is estimated that you can find some.
Speaking of which, if Sheng Qingqing spent a ride to the town today just for these common seeds, it would definitely be a big loss.
However, Sheng Qingqing took her family's car today, and the money finally went into their family's pocket......
When the woman thought of this, she swallowed back all the words she had spoken. After a while, he smiled again: "It's not too early, hurry up and get in the car, let's go back to the village early, it's safer." ”
There were no street lights at night, the roads were bumpy, and if you waited until it was dark to start your journey back, no one knew what would happen. What's more, there were only two of them on this ox cart, and they were both women and children.
Sheng Qingqing did not doubt him, and got into the ox cart neatly.
It was much more comfortable to go back than when I came, and although it was inevitable to carry some goods on the ox cart, most of them were bought by the villagers by the hands of the women. The people in the village don't have a lot of money in their hands, and they don't buy much at one time. At this time, Sheng Qingqing was sitting on the ox cart, and she could still relax and half lean on the goods, not at all like when she came in the morning, she was so crowded that she couldn't breathe.
The woman didn't say anything about Sheng Qingqing's move of leaning on the goods. Looking at Sheng Qingqing's small figure, he doesn't weigh much, even if he leans on the goods all the way, he won't let the goods have any problems.
And after this day's rush, Sheng Qingqing was also a little tired, and fell asleep unconsciously in the swaying movement of the ox cart.
I slept soundly until ......
"Qingqing, wake up!"
A loud shout rang in his ears, like thunder. Sheng Qingqing, who was still in a dream, was suddenly awakened. Ignoring the beating of her heart like a drum, she sat up abruptly and looked around vigilantly.
However, this look ......
“…… Are we back in the village? Sheng Qingqing was a little confused.
Although her body was awake, her mind was still outside the world, and she had not been combined with her body for a while.
The woman stood beside her, and saw her blank expression clearly, and immediately burst out laughing.
"yes, yes, we're back in the village." She smiled and said, "You get out of the car quickly, I still have to send the goods down." ”
The goods of an ox cart will naturally not be just something to be purchased by a family. The woman was about to bring the goods from house to house on the ox cart, collecting the money by the way.
Sheng Qingqing rubbed the corners of her forehead, barely retracting a little bit of intelligence. She was also embarrassed to stay on the ox cart longer, so she hurriedly got out of the ox cart, thanked the woman again, and went home in a trance.
It was nothing to be woken up suddenly, the problem was that the woman's voice was so loud that it scared her for a while, and the moment she woke up, Sheng Qingqing felt that her three souls and seven spirits were out of her body for a moment.
At this time, the sky is still hanging tomorrow, exuding a slight warmth. They set off from the town from time to time, and I don't know if it was because of the lack of goods in the car, the speed of the return journey was much faster, and at this time, looking at the sky, it should be the next moment, at most it is only unitary time, and there should be a little distance from dinner.
That's a blessing......
Sheng Qingqing eased up, feeling that her thoughts were a little clearer, so she quickened her pace and rushed home.
She wasn't at home all day today, and she left in the morning in a hurry, without explaining much, and I don't know if the two children were in a hurry......
However, Sheng Qingqing, who was so worried, was shocked by the scene at home when she arrived at the door.
"What are you guys doing here?!"
When the two children in the courtyard saw her, they immediately cheered in surprise, and they couldn't care about the things in their hands, and they all ran towards Sheng Qingqing.
However, when the two children were about to hug her, Sheng Qingqing decisively stretched out her hand and pressed the little heads of the two children expressionlessly.
"Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?" Sheng Zhizhi asked very aggrievedly, as she spoke, her hands and feet were swiping, as if she wanted to rush over.
Sheng Siming's big eyes were also wet at the moment, although he didn't speak, he could see the doubts and accusations in his heart at this time.
It's like saying that I haven't seen them for a day, and the eldest sister doesn't want to hug them!
"It's not that I don't want to hug you...... Sheng Qingqing took a deep breath, suppressed the emotions surging in her heart, and tried her best to warn herself that she couldn't beat and scold children at will, so as not to hurt their self-esteem.
It took a long time for her to ease her emotions and ask in a calm tone as much as possible, "Before the eldest sister hugs you, who can tell me what you were doing in the yard just now?!" ”
She withdrew her hand holding the two children, but in the blink of an eye, it reached for the small pit in the center of the courtyard.
