Chapter Twenty-Five: Miscanthus Seeds
When they arrived, Zheng and Ding Dashan were already there, and the two of them also bought a lot of things.
The Zheng family saw Erlin and them coming from a distance, and they also saw a lot of things in their hands.
Zheng muttered a little in his heart, how much did it cost 6 to buy so many things?
After the people got closer and saw it clearly, Zheng muttered even more in his heart, and his face was a little unsightly.
After they put down all the things, Zheng first took Wang's heart, and then said: "It cost a lot of money to buy such a thing, I said you, you can't spend it like this if you have money."
Especially you, Chunhua, Erlin is man didn't count in his heart, didn't he count in his heart, did you forget what I told you before.
I know you've saved some money, but you can't spend it like this, just say this cloth, even if you want to buy it, you can't afford to buy this fine cotton, it's so expensive, and even if you want to buy a little bit, why buy so much. ”
……
Zheng said to this Wang family, and she didn't mean to teach her a lesson, but she couldn't get used to seeing them spend so much money.
Wang was a little aggrieved, but she knew that what her mother-in-law said was right, it was all for their good, and she didn't defend it.
But Erlin said it on the side.
"Mother, don't talk about Chunhua, doesn't she also want to make new clothes for the two of you, this is also our little intention to be a son and daughter-in-law, don't blame her.
And these cloths are bought by the boss of the cloth village at a reduced price, although it costs a lot of money, it is also a lot more cost-effective than usual. ”
Zheng stopped talking after listening, knowing that she was wrong to blame her daughter-in-law, but she was still reluctant in her heart, such an old and expensive cloth is not cheap even if the price is reduced, although it is not her money, but she still has heartache.
"Even if the price is reduced, it's not cheap, and our peasant family just wears coarse cotton, how bad it is to wear this fine cotton."
"Mother, how can it be ruined, isn't this cloth just for people to wear, why can't we wear fine cotton."
Erlin disagreed.
"Then I can't wear this dress to work, I can't wear it."
"If you can't wear it to work, then wear it to your relatives, it's going to be the New Year soon, and it's going to be a face, Dad, don't you say?"
"Okay, old woman, it's hard to return it after buying it, and besides, what Erlin said is right, why can't we wear fine cotton.
Besides, we haven't treated you badly since you entered the door, you didn't buy it yourself. ”
Ding Dashan listened to so much and then looked at his daughter-in-law who was speechless, and said to his mother-in-law.
"Hey, what did you dead old man say, did I say anything?"
Zheng was not happy when he heard Ding Dashan's words, and wanted to reason with him again, but when he saw that there were still so many people around, he lowered his voice and said such a sentence without speaking.
As soon as these words fell, the Yimu family over there also came back, and they also held a lot of things in their hands.
When Zheng looked at it, he really didn't know what to say in his heart, one by one, alas!!
……
"Ah, Erlin, we didn't buy cotton, and it's still cold to make a single clothes to wear this day."
Wang looked at the things they bought and whispered to Erlin.
Erlin felt that too, they were still wearing cotton clothes, since they were going to do it, they would do better.
"Mother, I still have something I forgot to buy, you guys are waiting for me." Erlin said to Zheng.
"What, still buy it!!"
When Zheng heard that they were still buying, he didn't control the volume for a while.
"Mother, be quiet."
Looking at the eyes of the people next to him, Erlin was a little embarrassed.
Zheng also found out, so he lowered his voice and asked, "Why do you still buy things, you have bought so much." ”
"Your mother is right, Erlin, you can't spend all your money on this life."
Although Ding Dashan on the side said so before, he also agreed with Zheng's statement that the life of the peasant family is not like this.
"I know Dad, then I won't buy it."
Erlin heard his father say the same, and he didn't say that he bought it, and he didn't necessarily have to buy it, and he couldn't wear it on weekdays with cotton, so he still made a single coat, and if it was cold, he would wear an old coat inside.
Since Erlin said so, they also bought everything they wanted to buy, and the time was not too early, and the family rushed home.
And Xin'er shook and fell asleep soon on the road, and several children also fell asleep one after another.
It was not very late when the Ding family and his party arrived outside the village, around the time of Shen.
If they want to go home, they have to pass through the village dam, although there are not many people in the dam at this time, there are not many people, they buy a lot of things, Zheng is afraid that those people will talk about it, and she knows the mouths of those mothers-in-law in the village.
So, when they were not far from the village, they asked Yimu and Erlin to take back those large and valuable things from the path and carry some people back.
And the rest of them slowly drove the ox cart to the village.
"Yo, he, Aunt Zheng, they're back, I heard that your family has gone to the city, what good things have you bought here."
A woman in the dam who was about the same age as the Zheng family asked when she saw them coming back from the ox cart.
"Hey, what's the good thing, it's not because of the things in my heart before, we're afraid that it will affect her, so I took the family to Qingyun Temple to burn pillar incense and make a wish."
As soon as I heard Zheng talk about the previous incident, the people in the field stopped talking, and no one present had ever talked about their hearts before.
Zheng was very satisfied with this, and after a few words to them, he drove the ox cart back.
When they got home, the family took everything out of the car, gave the cows some water and fed the pigs.
While the cows were eating, the family was in the hall sorting what they had bought for the day.
There are really a lot of things, and there are still a lot of things after the Zhang family and the Wang family have picked all the things they bought.
It's also a coincidence, in addition to the Zhang family and the Wang family's concubine who bought a lot of fabrics, the Zheng family also bought a lot, two horses, but it is coarse cloth, which is much cheaper.
Zheng also wants to make new clothes for his family, the family has not made new clothes for two years, and this year Youyi took a lot of money back, and it is time to add a piece of clothing to the family.
At that time, there was no shortage of reasons when it was said that Wang's family.
After everything was picked, Erlin was ready to return the ox cart, and brought a jar of soju and a pack of snacks that they had bought before.
When he arrived at the village chief's house, the gate happened to be open, and Erlin shouted outside the door: "Uncle village chief, is Uncle village chief at home?" I'm here to return the ox cart. ”
"Here we are."
Soon, someone came out of it, and it was still Wang Cheng.
"Erlin is back."
"Well, no, I'm here to return your car."
"Erlin is here, come in and sit."
The village chief's voice could be heard from inside the house.
Erlin didn't refuse, and followed Wang Cheng in with wine and snacks.
"Uncle Village Chief, I'll return the car, this is the wine I promised you, how about you taste it."
After entering the hall, Erlin handed the wine jar and snacks in his hand to the village chief in the house.
"Well, I smell good, and I spent a lot of money, right?"
The village chief opened the wine jar and sniffed it, put it aside, looked at the things on the table and asked Erlin.
"It didn't cost much, and it didn't cost much."
The jar for wine is not big, and one jar is only two catties, and it is not how good it is, seven or eight pounds a catty, so it really doesn't cost much.
Dim sum is not a precious dim sum, it is just some ordinary pennies a catty, and it doesn't cost much.
In the end, Erlin also had a meal at the village chief's house before going back.
