Chapter 13: The Town Expedition

"Ahem, ahem!" In the end, I choked, "Big ...... Sister-in-law...... cough cough cough," he hurriedly picked up the porridge on the side and drank two sips, "Sister-in-law, let's come back, we will definitely come back for dinner, don't worry, we won't be late." After Lan Xiuwu finished speaking, he picked up another piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth desperately, "Sister-in-law, I'll go first." Then he picked up the remaining half of the porridge on the side, quickly poured it into his mouth, and then ran away.

"Sister-in-law, I'm also full." Looking at Lan Xiuwu's eating appearance, and then looking at Lan Xiuwu and the four girls, people are more angry than others, why is Lan Xiuwu so anxious, isn't he afraid that she will call him to wash the dishes.

"Well, this is the third uncle's, the fourth girl, you put the rest away, I may not be back until the evening." Su Yanniang carefully explained everything at home before picking up her little baggage and going out.

The fourth girl, Lan Yaoyao, was guarding at home, taking Lan Yao with her by the way, this child was still young and didn't understand anything, and the second sister-in-law and second brother were not there, so Lan Yaoyao took the initiative to take care of the child.

"Brother Niu." At the head of the village, Ah Niu is a long-term worker who helps the Li Zheng family, and he always goes to the town three times a month, Brother A Niu is doing a cow, and he just walked to the entrance of the village and saw a car of people, Su Yanniang was embarrassed to call people.

"Xiuyuan's family, you also go to town!" The village was the most lively at this time, everyone was ready to go out to work, and when they saw the sister-in-law of the Lan family, they all greeted each other.

"Yes, yes, third aunt." After getting on the ox cart, Ah Niu hit the cow with a small whip, Niu Mou screamed, and began to take a step out of the village.

The people in the cart were all going to the town to do business, so there were chickens and ducks in the cart, and some vegetables and so on, and they were sitting on the edge.

"It's still just right, the road to the town is too far, there is an ox cart to sit on, and you can save a few dollars." In fact, there are donkey carts in the village to go to the town, but they have to collect money, and they go back and forth once a day, and the things they bring can't be exchanged for much money, if you remove the money for the car, and the stall fee, there is not much left.

So at that time, Li Zhengyi proposed that he would let his ox cart enter the city three times a month, and the villagers immediately exploded, although the number of times was not much, but it could save a lot of money, and vegetables and chickens and ducks were not sold every day, and they could save up and go again.

Over time, the villagers have been waiting for the free car three times a month, and today Su Yanniang finally got a place, she sat in the car and listened to the villagers say that the town is prosperous, and where there are many rich people, and the price will be a little higher.

When the sun was half high and it was expected to be the hour, Su Yanniang got down from the ox cart and wiped her sweat. "This is the town." Ah Niu put them at the entrance of the town and went to work himself.

The first time I entered the town, in fact, this is not the first time I have come to the town. I remember that when Chong Xi's concubine was sold by the Gao family to be the old imperial cook, she was taken into the town by a carriage, but at that time she was very scared, and she didn't dare to see what the town was like, although she had been living in the town, but she had no chance to go out at all, and was trapped in that compound for six years.

As soon as she thought of the past, her heart was very heavy, and she especially missed the dead ghost husband who had been out for four years, and now she didn't know where he was.

However, this mood was only for a while, and she quickly remembered the purpose of her visit today, and she walked with the villagers holding chickens and ducks.

After a while, the bustling market appeared in front of her, her eyes lit up, she walked quickly, and bumped into people several times, she kept apologizing, but her eyes kept staring at the things of those small vendors.

"Aunt Yang, set up a stall here, do you want to collect money?" She walked around, her feet were almost gone, and when she finished walking a circle, she saw the eldest lady who had just sat in the car together, she hurriedly walked over, sat on the ground, and asked.

"Yes, but here, the money is relatively small, I have a small place, and I can bargain with those who collect money." As soon as these words came out, Su Yanniang understood.

You must collect money here, but it depends on the location you put if you charge more or less. "Auntie, business here is good." Su Yanniang is still chatting, taking advantage of the fact that the eldest lady's business is average now, and chatting a few words.

"It's okay, I've got a few customers, and they're coming later." Aunt Yang looked around and whispered, "But don't say it." ”

Looking at Aunt Yang's cautious look, Su Yanniang nodded as if she didn't understand, "Don't worry, Auntie, I don't understand anything." With that, another pair of eyes stared at the people who walked.

She knew what Aunt Yang meant, and the customers came to buy things from her, especially the price would be a little higher, but Aunt Yang wanted to ensure that her things were good.

Aunt Yang's family is not easy, her man had an accident and let go early, leaving a few children, who were raised by Aunt Yang. Alas, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, anyway, Su Yanniang also came to learn the scriptures, she thought about how to attract business if she started with her crayfish. After all, not everyone dares to eat crayfish.

On the third pole of the day, Aunt Yang's old patron had not yet come, and her face was slightly anxious, "Auntie, I have a flatbread here, you can eat one too." Aunt Yang turned around and looked at Su Yanniang embarrassedly, "Xiuyuan's family, how is this good." Although she was embarrassed, she couldn't help but swallow when she saw the golden flatbread.

"I brought it, brought steamed buns, let's just take a few sips of cold water, hold it up and pass." Although Aunt Yang was anxious, she couldn't help it, after all, the old patron couldn't come, and she had nowhere to find someone.

"Come, auntie, I learned a lot today, and thank you." took a piece of bread and stuffed it into Aunt Yang's hand. "Yo, there's an egg in it!" Aunt Yang was shocked, isn't this Xiuyuan family going to be unable to open the pot? How can there be egg cakes to eat?

"Haha, no, it's just a little bit of it, alas, I don't know anything." After speaking, she lowered her head slightly sadly, Aunt Yang also knew the situation of the Lan family.

"Alas, girl, no one knows everything from the beginning, you look at me, if you don't fight for yourself, just wait to starve to death." Aunt Yang's maiden family is a showman, she has also learned a little something, and what she said is very reasonable.

"Yes, auntie, let's eat, I'm definitely hungry after so long." Su Yanniang came prepared today, she specially packed twenty cakes, and she could send one to the people in the car when she went back, she wanted to pave her road first.

With the little abacus in her heart, Su Yanniang slowly ate the cake, took out the water bag, and drank a few sips of water. Gradually quieting the market, her eyes were a little confused, and gradually became firm.

On the way back, some people were happy and some were worried, Aunt Yang's old patron did not come, she could only sell her eggs at a low price, she could have received a lot of money, but she could only recover half of the previous budget. "Well, what the hell is going on today?" She sat on the bullock cart and sighed.

Su Yanniang, who is familiar with the things of this day, also lowered her head slightly, she chatted with Aunt Yang this day, and also looked at the noisy market, she also went around a few times, and finally looked at a corner, not very public, small corner, but it is facing the road on both sides, this is definitely a good position, now that there is no one in that position, she thinks about the next time she takes the ox cart, she will prepare some to try.

Just go back, and think about what to do, it won't have a business at the beginning, the most important thing in front of her is to solve tomorrow's three meals first.

The ox cart is relatively stable, the road is relatively long, there are not many people talking on the way back, some are just on the ox cart, some will say a few words excitedly, but most of the faces have a slight tiredness.

And Su Yanniang also closed her eyes, she may have to face the Gao family when she goes home, she must cultivate her spirit, but she must not lose. She knew that her path had just begun, and no matter how difficult it was, she had to grit her teeth and persevere.

Before she arrived at the door, Su Yanniang heard Gao's loud voice, and she slowly approached.

"Hmph, look, you can't open the pot at home, let you go and live a good life, if you don't go, look, you're going to suffer with the family again." Gao's voice is simply penetrating, and you can hear it when you stand at the intersection.

As soon as I heard this, I knew that Gao was bullying the four girls while she was away, she was so hot, it was going well today, but now when I heard Gao's voice, I was in no good mood.

Anger calmed down, rubbed her sore legs, straightened her back, and strode towards her door. At this time, it was already dark, and some of them had already finished eating and walking on the road for the sake of fuel-saving lamps. So Gao's voice was heard by many people.

Some people's faces flashed unbearably, but the Gao family was notoriously unreasonable and pungent in the township next door, so no one went up to persuade her.

Stepping into the door, at a glance, I saw Lan Xiuwu standing aside with a smug smile on his face, Gao Shi standing in the middle with a wide arm and a big belly in his waist, and the four girls standing at the kitchen door, cowering. And Lan Yao was holding the legs of the four girls, and his face was full of fear.

"Auntie, auntie." With a crying tone, Lan Yao could only shout Su Yanniang, he was young, although he had seen his mother splash several times, but he was really scared. and my aunt, who was also trembling with fear.

"Yo, this is the second brother and sister are back!" Gao was tired of scolding, and while panting slightly, Su Yanniang spoke. As soon as he heard her voice, Lan Yao immediately hugged the little aunt, "It's good that the eldest aunt is back, auntie, let's not be afraid!" ”

"Ah, big ...... Sister-in-law! Gao Shi had a momentary loss, but then she thought of Su Yanniang's politeness to them before, and she couldn't help but stop her thick waist again.

"It seems that the family is doing a good job."
