After coming out of the cloth shop, she went to find the salt shop in the direction that Xiao Er pointed to her just now, and walked for a few minutes. It cost a hundred wen to buy two catties of salt, and she couldn't help but sigh that this salt was really expensive, more expensive than the sum of several sets of clothes and shoes she bought. And because there were no tools to load, I spent a penny to buy two cloth bags to hold salt. After buying salt, she went to the blacksmith shop to buy knives and pots.

When I came to the blacksmith shop, there was no one inside, so I walked around the shop. Before he had walked a few steps, a very sturdy man came out of it, he was really strong, and the muscles on his body could be seen in his clothes. When the man saw that she was a little girl, she did not speak, but did not leave, so he sat on a stool on the side and looked out. Yang Xue looked at it for a while and couldn't understand it, so she asked, "Uncle, what is the price of these things?" The man looked at her seriously as if to make sure she really wanted to buy it, and then said, "What do you want to buy?" "I want to see the machete and the iron pot, if the knife is not too big, it is suitable for my use, and the pot is not too big enough for two or three people to eat." After hearing her words, the man became serious.

The man walked up to her, looked at the iron tool in front of her, and said to her: "According to your requirements, there are only a few things, this machete almost meets your requirements, but it may be a little bigger, but this is the smallest machete; No matter how small it is, it's just a kitchen knife. If you want to use these pots, these are small. As he spoke, he pointed out to her what he had said about machetes and iron pots. She followed the direction of his finger and looked at it one by one, and the man didn't speak as if he was waiting for her to think about it.

"And what about the price of this knife and pot?" Pointing to the two things she fancied, Yang Xue asked. The words of this knife are ninety, and the words of the pot are seventy. "Can I take a closer look?" "Of course, but you have to be careful not to bump into it." She didn't know if he was talking about something not to knock on him or herself, but she still took a serious look. The first thing I looked at was the knife, she held the knife in her hand to try whether she could use it, and after a few attempts on it, everything else was fine except for a little heavy. However, she saw that the knife was too blunt, so she asked, "Can this knife be so blunt that it can cut things?" The man paused for a moment and then smiled: "Little girl, this knife hasn't been opened yet, if you are sure to buy it, I will open it for you." ”

Hearing the man's smiling words, Yang Xue was a little embarrassed, but she still said calmly: "I haven't bought it, so I don't know, I'm sorry." "It's fine." Then she looked at the iron pots that the man pointed out, and after looking at it for a long time, she chose an open pot that was not particularly small. Then she said to the man: "Uncle, I can buy two things for less." "The price is not high, little girl, I don't say that this thing is the best, but the quality and price are definitely the best in town." "Uncle, you should be cheaper, I'll buy two, I also heard that you are good here, you give me a cheaper price, I will come to your house to buy it in the future."

The two went back and forth several times and finally set the price, the price did not change, but I bought an extra kitchen knife, the original price was fifty yuan, and now the three things add up to two hundred yuan, and she also asked someone for a sewing needle. Since it was not enough to buy an extra kitchen knife and copper plate, she spent another piece of silver, and after making up for a penny, she also discussed with others to temporarily put things here to get them for a while. After asking the location of the nearby grocery store, she went to buy a basket, and she definitely couldn't get it back without carrying so many things.

After buying the back basket and about to leave, he suddenly remembered something, and then turned back and asked the boss, "Is there anything for ignition?" "You're talking about fire folds, yes, five wen one." "I want one, by the way, two more bowls." and spent seven more texts.

After shopping, I went to the iron shop to put on the knife and pot, and then went to the cloth shop to put on the clothes and shoes I had bought before, thanked the boss, and then left with my things on my back. Although the basket looked very full, it was not particularly planted, so she went to the grain store to see if she could buy some food.

When I came to the grain store, I first asked Xiao Er about the price: ten wen a pound of rice, five wen for broken rice, eight wen a pound for white flour, five wen for cornmeal, three wen for black flour, and three wen for miscellaneous noodles. In the end, I bought one catty of white flour, two catties of black flour, and two catties of cornmeal, and spent a total of twenty-five wen. Since I didn't buy much, I spent another penny to buy two burlap bags for things.

Now the basket was getting heavier and heavier, and she was not going to buy anything anymore, but in the end she bought something again. Because when he passed by the pork stall, he saw that there was still some lard that was not sold, and then he thought that when he was at home in his previous life, when his family bought a new iron pot, they would wipe the whole pot with lard or boil oil in a new pot, so that it would not rust in the future. So she spent another thirty yuan to buy the lard, and finally when she passed by the bun shop, she smelled the fragrance and her stomach began to drum violently. She hadn't eaten anything since she was eating in the morning today, so she bought ten more white-flour steamed buns, two for one penny, and five for five.

But in the end, she was glad that she stopped at the bun shop and bought so many steamed buns, otherwise she didn't know what would have happened in the end.

Here's the thing: maybe she's too young or a girl, and she's gone to buy so many things and hasn't avoided being targeted by others. Originally, she didn't find out, but when she was buying steamed buns, maybe the boss saw that she bought a lot, or maybe the boss kindly reminded her when he gave her something. In fact, the boss didn't say anything clearly, just pointed with his finger, maybe the boss was also afraid of them. Originally, she didn't pay much attention, but then somehow she looked over and saw a man who looked like a gangster looking at her. Maybe the man didn't expect her to turn around and look a little flustered, but now she knew that there was a problem, and after thanking the boss, she walked quickly.

After finding out, she was actually quite flustered and scared, maybe it was luck or something, she met the first aunt again, and a group of them went out of town together. Seeing them, Yang Xue hurried forward to catch up with them as if she suddenly saw a savior, and said, "Auntie, it's a coincidence that I met you again, I don't mind with you." The others looked at her with some confusion and then at the aunt, but fortunately the aunt still remembered her and said, "The girl is you, you can come along." Then she explained to her companions what had happened to her, and there was no explanation for her, except that she had met her at the entrance of the town in the morning, and then the men went away without saying anything except to look at her occasionally.

After walking for about a stick of incense, I came to a fork, on one side was the direction where the aunt and they came from, and on the other hand was the direction when Yang Xue came. After she followed a group of them for a while, Yang Xue found that the man was not following behind, but for the sake of safety, she walked with them for a while to make sure that no one was following before separating from them. After parting, she slowly retreated back and went up the hill along the road she had come.
