Yesterday, there was a change.,Medium,Ask for votes~~^-^

——————

Xia Xiaoman adhered to the principle of poverty alleviation and insisted on refusing to buy high-end luxury goods, even if he only bought two good silk fabrics for the clothes, and two ordinary plain cloths for the lining, he 'spent' a total of less than three taels of silver. Except for the dim sum, the more than one tael of silver was spent, and the remaining five taels of silver were all used to buy rice, white noodles, chicken, duck, fish, and meat. And Xia Xiaoman only then saw the purchasing power of money in an agricultural society.

What can you buy for five taels of silver?

Let's look at the price: 11 pounds of terrier rice; white noodles nine wen a catty; Pig 'meat' and 'mutton' are 60 wen a catty; beef 'meat' is slightly more expensive, about 100 wen a catty; a female 'chicken' weighing three or four catties weighs 100 wen, and if it is a male 'rooster', it is only 70 wen; 'chicken' eggs are 5 wen and 3 pieces; in winter, there are few green vegetables, fresh vegetables and dried vegetables are sold relatively expensive, pickles are sparse and cheap, and the pickles in the largest jar are only about 40 wen.

Wei Kai is also an excellent purchaser, and his bargaining skills are very good, so he bought most of the New Year's goods for five taels of silver, and occupied a full place outside Xia Xiaoman's suitcase on the cart.

Originally, there were two rough envoys in the back car, who brought Xia Xiaoman to carry luggage or something, and did not leave a personal service, but also settled Xia Xiaoman and went back with the car. Now they can't sit in the car, so they have to sit directly on the wheel.

Xia Xiaoman originally wanted to hire another car, after all, it was a cold day, and it was not a problem for two elderly people to freeze outside the car. But Wei Kai said that it was far away from the carriage and horse shop, and it was not something that could be hired if you wanted to, and the two mothers-in-law were busy and sitting outside was not in the way, so Xia Xiaoman stopped thinking about it. She rewarded the two mothers-in-law with the hundred and ten dollars she wanted to use to hire a car, and the two of them happily accepted and thanked them. Xia Xiaoman pondered, this bonus is "rather fall into a group, not one person", anyone who falls will be disgusted, simply give up some money, and the little coachmen who came out will all be rewarded, Wei Kai also got a piece of broken silver to eat and drink, and everyone was happy for a while.

Xia Xiaoman is very satisfied with this price level, he now has one hundred and fifty or sixty taels of silver in his hand, if he really lives independently, but he can still 'stand' for a long time in luxury days, and besides, Fuze is the imperial capital after all, and the price is very likely to be higher than that of other provinces. Now it is only necessary to know the rent, and if the rent is not high, then independent living is feasible at least on a material basis.

Shopping all the way, stopping and stopping, it was already noon when I arrived in the north of Fuze City.

Most of the people living in the north of Fuze City are civilians, and the houses are much shorter, except for a few official main roads, the roads are mostly narrow. Xia Xiaoman, whose car full of New Year's goods arrived at the mouth of Towel Alley, said that they couldn't get in, so they had to ask Xia Xiaoman's car to go in first, and then beckoned people to carry things inside. Fortunately, the Xia family lives near the entrance of the alley, and it will not take a lot of effort to carry things.

The carriage stopped in front of the 'door' of the Xia family, and Wei Kai went to call the 'door' first. Here Cardamom jumped out of the car, put down the bench, and followed Fennel to help Xia Xiaoman down.

Xia Xiaoman had already looked at the living conditions in this area through the car window, and after getting used to seeing the carved beams and painted red walls and green tiles of the Nianfu, these low and old houses in front of him were standard slums. However, in the past, she was also used to seeing skyscrapers and low-rise bungalows, and she had long been accustomed to this huge contrast, so now when she saw this, she didn't even sigh, and she thought very realistically in her heart, how much does such ......a house cost ==|||

Cardamom was born as a bitter child, and when he tossed and turned in the hands of human teeth, he also lived in a shack, and he felt nothing about this house; Fennel is not. Although she came out of the slave house, but the family is quite rich, the house is rewarded by the house, after several repairs, although it is not as good as the big family, but it is better than the ordinary people, so when she sees the house in the towel lane, she only feels simple and dilapidated, and she is a little unhappy in her heart, thinking that the master must not be used to living here.

At this time, she held Xia Xiaoman's arm, looked around, and really wanted to say to her master, how can such a house be lived, it is better to go back after a look. But this is the master's mother's house! She could only bite her lip and press that sentence under her tongue. I am kind, but when I tell my master that her mother's family is not good, isn't she dizzy?

She was annoyed, and suddenly felt a warmth in her hand, Xia Xiaoman's hand was on hers, she was shocked, thinking that the master had noticed something, and hurriedly looked up at Xia Xiaoman, but saw Xia Xiaoman with an embarrassed face, gagged and mouthed, but didn't say anything.

Fennel was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "What does the master want?" ”

Xia Xiaoman shook his head awkwardly and said, "It's nothing...... Nothing ......."

She was impulsive just now, and wanted to ask Fennel, and when she saw the original version of her father and mother later, what did she call her...... Embarrz, I haven't paid attention to this title since I beat her through, no one has ever called her own father and mother in front of her, how does she know what to call it, I didn't think about it yesterday, this is coming to an end, stupid, what's it called? Call Mom? Mother? Mother? Mother? Madam? Wife?

…… Eniang...... Ahem, of course, it's impossible......==|||

Although she wanted to know the title, she opened her mouth and didn't ask it. Hell, if she grabs the maid and asks, I'll have to call my mom what's her name...... The maid will collapse......&_<|||

Call Mother. She finally decided. In the end, it's better to call it in writing, although it always makes her feel fake by calling her own mother like this, but it's better than making a mistake.

The 'door' panel made an empty sound because of the decay of time, as if knocking on it could shake off a little dust and dirt slag. A crisp response came from the courtyard: "It's coming...... Who? ”

The one who came to answer the 'door' was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old young 'girl', and her appearance was seven points similar to Xia Xiaoman, especially her eyebrows and eyes, if she wasn't thin, the whole face might be more similar. She was wearing a half-worn plain coat and no headdress on her head, but she wore a red agate bracelet on her wrist with her cuffs exposed, which at first glance looked particularly incongruous.

She opened the 'door' and was stunned for a moment, and then saw Xia Xiaoman behind Wei Kai, before Wei Kai opened her mouth to speak, she screamed first, and did not greet the guests, but turned around and ran back, shouting: "Mother! Mother!! The eldest sister is back!! ”

It turned out to be called Niang. Xia Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief, very good, he finally knew what to call it. If she wants to scream one by one, it is really awkward. But, hmm, why did she think this girl seemed to be more frightened than surprised...... Sweat......

Looking at the emaciated back of the 'female' child, a complicated feeling floated in her heart.

If you cross over and occupy someone's body, you should take on all its obligations while enjoying all the rights of this body. Rights and duties are always tied together, and no one can enjoy one or the other. She knew this, and after calling, she told herself over and over again. But in her heart, she really has little interest in carrying the old debt of the "original".

Whether she is 'selfish' or anything, the reality is that when she can't even support herself, it is difficult for her to plan to support her family who is a stranger to her. Therefore, she has always firmly believed that it is okay to help with poverty alleviation, but there are limits, don't make trouble for yourself.

But when she really saw these people suffering, she didn't know if she could be so sure. It doesn't matter whether empathy is overflowing, it's just that sometimes, when faced with something, it's really impossible to be indifferent.

Wei Kai saw that the 'girl' child had gone back to report the news, and said to Xia Xiaoman in a very low voice very quickly: "Auntie's 'milk' and 'milk', I have already told my in-laws that you accidentally fell, and I can't remember so much about the past." ”

Xia Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, then understood, and nodded: "Hmm." Good. I see. ”

Wei Kai bowed down and said respectfully: "I'm waiting here to freeze my aunt's 'milk' and 'milk', anyway, it's my own family, please go to the hospital." ”

While he was talking, the 'girl' who had just run in led a pair of middle-aged husbands and 'women' to the 'door', followed by a five or six-year-old boy behind him.

It is said that the 'daughter' is like a father, and the son is like a mother, which is not false at all, and the Xia Xiaoman sisters are like being ripped off their father's face, and their appearance is very similar. The 'woman' has no resemblance to the two 'daughters', but is derived from the same genetic system as the son.

The same face has a different expression, there is no hug and crying when relatives meet, and it is not as completely alienated and indifferent as strangers.

The smiles on the faces of the two parents seemed to be a little reluctant, and the words seemed to be trying to warm up, but they didn't feel any warmth.

They said, "The big girl is back......"
