Chapter 49: Delivery in town
Early the next morning, Cui'er packed up the twenty wicker baskets to be delivered, looking at the sky outside, Cui'er had the heart to say what she was going to say yesterday, and seeing Lian Qingshan's bad face, she couldn't bear to say it.
"Mother, are you going to town? Is it okay to take the big girl with you? The big girl who got up early saw that Cui'er had already packed her things, and begged Cui'er with her eyes.
"Big girl wants to go to town?" Cui'er looked at the big girl blinking her big eyes flickering, with an innocent and cute look, she had already promised it in her heart, but she couldn't help but tease her, "The town is far away, if the girl can't walk halfway, what should I do?" ”
"It's okay, the big girl has a lot of strength, she can walk!" The eldest girl replied seriously, and then pulled Cui'er's cuffs and begged carefully, "Mother, take the eldest girl to the town, the eldest girl has never been to the town!" ”
"Big girl......" Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er, then at the big girl, and called to the big girl with a slightly dark face, "Your mother is going to do business, what are you doing with a little child?" ”
When Lian Qingshan said this, his heart was fighting fiercely, in his eyes, after Cui'er sold the wicker basket this time, Xu Wei would not come back, the big girl went to make trouble for her, Cui'er was kind-hearted, and she was definitely reluctant to throw the big girl in the town, so she had to send her back.
Even Qingshan himself knew that if he could pretend to let Cui'er leave as if nothing had happened this time, there would be no next time, and if Cui'er couldn't leave this time, then he wouldn't let go again...... His heart was conflicted and struggling, and when he was entangled, he heard Cui'er's voice like heaven.
"Okay, the big girl is willing to go to the town, my mother will take you there, it just so happens that there is no food at home, let's go to the town, get more meat and vegetables, and come back for the big girl to eat!" Cui'er touched the top of the girl's forehead with a smile, said hello to Lian Qingshan, and took the girl to the town.
Lian Qingshan sat on the kang, looking at the back of Cui'er, who had gone away, and only felt that it was a general blessing for the rest of her life after the catastrophe, great, Cui'er would come back, Lian Qingshan's heart was sweet and happy, and he stood unconsciously for a long time, until his legs were slightly sore, Lian Qingshan came to his senses, sat on the kang with a smile, and made up the basket with his heart.
Let's say that Cui'er carried twenty baskets on her shoulders, led the girl to the town, and when she walked to the entrance of the village, she happened to meet Aunt Lu who was going to go to the town to sell female celebrities.
Cui'er had the experience of the last time, this time she brought an old clothes, and before putting the burden on her shoulders, she wrapped the flat burden with the old clothes, so that she would not be too panicked.
Half an hour passed, and the big town was already in sight, Cui'er wiped the sweat on her forehead with her cuffs, and suddenly remembered that she didn't wipe her face with the bottom of the pot this time.
"Auntie, you go to the town first, I'll rest here, and I'll leave later!" Cui'er put down the flat shoulder, pulled the big girl over and wiped her face, and said to Aunt Lu.
"Okay, there's no two steps left, you take the big girl to rest for a while, and when the things are sold, let's see you at the door of the Qian family's grocery store and go back to Tunzi together." Aunt Lu was not ambiguous, and after answering, she took her daughter Huazhi to the town, today they are going to sell things, and there will be no good place to go late.
Cui'er watched Aunt Lu go away, took the girl to rest for a while, then stepped on the ground and touched something that could paint her face, and after tinkering for a long time, she finally turned a white and tender pretty face into black, and Cui'er took the girl to the town with confidence and boldness.
"Mother, why do you want to blacken your face?" The big girl held Cui'er's basket and asked with a blink of eyes.
"My mother is a little darker, it looks fierce, when they sell things and buy things, they don't dare to ask my mother for money!" Cui'er really couldn't explain why she blackened her face, so she could only say vaguely.
"Wow, mother, you're so amazing!" The big girl didn't know that Cui'er was telling a lie, and she thought it was really facing Cui'er's starry eyes, and her little yellow face was red with excitement.
"Let's go, let's send the basket later, let's go buy delicious sugar cubes for the big girl, and then buy a piece of meat, let's go back and make meat pieces to eat!" Cui'er looked at the big girl smiling with crooked eyebrows, stretched out her hand and pinched her little face, feeling that the little face under her hand was really thin, and immediately decided to make the big girl fat.
Cui'er rubbed her shoulders, picked up the burden of twenty wicker baskets, and dragged the girl to the town. Soon after Cui'er left, two people, a man and a woman, arrived.
"It's really unlucky, I walked for more than ten days, but I haven't even walked out of this mountain, and I was kicked out again when I returned home." A man in a long robe walked to the edge of the woods, found a rock, and sat down.
"Yoshiro, we can't get out, what can we do now?" A sixteen or seventeen-year-old woman held the woman's hair in a bun, followed from behind, looked at the angry man, hesitated for a while, and still asked.
"What to do? How do I know what to do! The man's face was very sour, and he gritted his teeth and said to Cui Niang, "We can't go back to our home, and you don't want to go to Nalian's house, so wait and see what the situation is in this town." ”
"Hmm......" Cui Niang responded softly, twisting her slender waist and walking to the man, "Yilang...... As long as I can be with you, I won't be afraid of anything. ”
"Alas, it's useless that I can't protect you!" Na Yilang looked at Cui Niang in front of him with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, her snow-white little face was like rain, and he suddenly hugged her in his arms and rubbed her a few times.
"Hmm......" I don't know if the action is too big, then Cui Niang actually pushed Yoshiro away, retched by the big tree, and vomited for a long time, then wiped the corners of her mouth with her cuffs, and looked at Yoshiro with some apprehension, "Yoshiro...... Don't I have it, do I? ”
When Yoshiro heard this, he sat there with a frightened face, and was speechless for a long time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As soon as she entered the grocery store, she saw the little guy who had entertained her before, Xiao Le, greeted her with a smile, "Sister-in-law Cui is here, our shopkeeper yesterday was still talking about when you will come to deliver the basket, this is not today!" ”
"It's fun, I'm also looking at the basket at home and I'm almost done, so I'll send it over." Cui'er greeted the young man with a smile, and after putting down the flat burden in her hand, she pulled the big girl who followed her.
"This is the daughter of our family, called Big Girl, Big Girl, come, call Uncle Lezi." Cui'er pulled the big girl over, looked at her wide-eyed and curious looking around, and couldn't help but dress her up and let her call someone.
"Uncle Leko!" Although the girl is a little ashamed, she really listens to Cui'er's words and calls people.
"Ah, how did you say this, hehe......" Don't look at Lezi, who is usually quite able to say, this is called an uncle by a little girl, and I am really embarrassed, I scratched my head at the moment, and responded to the big girl, "Sister-in-law Cui, I'm going to call our shopkeeper to come out!" ”
"Okay, there you go!" Cui'er's face turned red when she saw the fun, smiled slightly, and didn't say anything anymore, turned her head and put the wicker basket in place, then squatted in front of the girl, and said to the girl, "Girl, let's be obedient here, don't be noisy, and then my mother will sell the basket, let's go around the town first, so as to ask about your father's leg, and then go to the girl to pull two feet of flower cloth to make clothes for the girl, and then buy a piece of meat to go home, and stew it for the girl, okay?" ”
"Good!" When the girl heard that there were new clothes and meat to eat, her eyes suddenly brightened, and after she responded crisply, she took Cui'er's hand and looked east and west, obviously because of the novelty of this grocery store, but it was not troublesome at all.
Seeing that the girl was well-behaved, Cui'er also put her mind at ease, and when she turned around, she saw the money shopkeeper coming out from behind, so she stepped forward and saluted, "Money shopkeeper!" ”
"Cui Niangzi is here, it just so happens that I have a batch of new goods to be sent to the outside of the mountain these days, it's really time for you to come!" The money shopkeeper looked at Cui'er, and then at the big girl beside her, "Cui Niangzi got married early enough, and her daughters are so old!" ”
"Big girl, let's call the shopkeeper uncle!" Cui'er smiled and didn't answer, you can't tell an outsider, this child was not born by me, it was left by the former daughter-in-law, right? Although the eldest girl has remembered things and knows that she was not born by herself, Cui'er always pays attention when she speaks, and she doesn't want to say something and hurt the child's heart.
The big girl hid behind Cui'er with half of her body, looking at the chubby uncle in front of her, although she had a smile on her face, it made people feel a little scared, and hesitated for a long time before she slowly said, "Hello Uncle Shopkeeper!" ”
"Good!" The money shopkeeper himself didn't like children much, for Cui'er's face, he responded with a smile, and didn't say much gossip, first looked at the wicker basket that Cui'er brought, and saw that they were all of high quality and durable, so he nodded, "Well, the thing is good, just according to the contract we signed before, I will pay you the money!" ”
Successfully handed over the twenty wicker baskets, in exchange for three small strings of a total of 300 big money, Cui'er smiled and thanked the money shopkeeper, and saw the money shopkeeper enter the backyard, so he called a little fun, and he bought a pound of salt, a pound of sugar and three feet of flower cloth, and inquired about how to go to the medicine store in the town, and then led the big girl, happily out of the door of the grocery store.
Last time, after Cui'er sold the basket, there was only one bare pole left, and if she hadn't bought more grain when she bought grain, the workers in the store would definitely not give her own grain bags, so when Cui'er came to the town this time, she kept an extra eye, in addition to the basket to be sold, she also brought an extra basket, just for stuffing.
Sold twenty baskets and got three hundred dollars, this money has not been hot, and it directly cost another sixty yuan, Cui'er felt very distressed, and secretly calculated in her heart that she would have to use the clothes at home or something after she went back, and she still had to save money on it.
Walk along the road pointed by Lezi, and after two streets, Cui'er smelled the strong smell of medicine, needless to say, this medicine shop is nearby.
Cui'er was about to find someone to inquire, when she caught a glimpse of two familiar figures in front of her entering the pharmacy, and in an instant, Cui'er remembered who the woman among the two was, wasn't it the Cui Niang who was impersonated by herself and bought back by Lian Qingshan's four taels of silver?!
