Chapter 9 Rush to the market
"Of course, mother, you are so good to me, I remember it in my heart." Liu Man'er was thinking about what gift to buy for the Fang clan in her heart, and turned her head to look at Ye He and Liu Fusheng again: "Xiaohe, Fusheng, tomorrow my sister will take you to the town to play." ”
"Yes, yes!" The two replied in unison.
Their expressions were a little excited, after all, they are all children, and it is always fun to be able to go out to play, although Liu Man'er has some problems with her brain, but in the town, she has been to it several times, and she still won't lose it.
"You're still home tomorrow." Fang's family was a little uneasy.
"Mother, don't worry, I specially called Ye Yuan to accompany me, and he agreed." Liu Man'er swallowed the food in her mouth: "Xiaohe and Fusheng have always been very well-behaved, and there will be no problems." ”
Fang was still a little hesitant, but thinking that the work at home was almost done, although the two children were young, they had also helped a lot during this time, so they also nodded and agreed.
"Yay!"
Ye He immediately shouted, and Liu Fusheng's face was also happy.
Seeing the smiles on their faces, Liu Man'er also smiled slightly, she beckoned to Liu Fusheng, Liu Fusheng hesitated, and still walked over.
Liu Fusheng is already six years old, but he looks like a four or five-year-old child, although his body is still strong, but he is really thin, and the spring breeze will blow his face full of chapped marks, which looks like a little plateau red.
Alas!
Liu Man'er sighed in her heart, stroked Liu Fusheng's head, and said, "Little brother, you are really too thin, my sister will definitely make good money in the future, so that you can both eat delicious food and wear beautiful clothes." ”
looked up at everyone, including herself, dressed like a beggar, tattered, except for a little cleaner, the rest of the clothes were patched with patches, looking extremely shabby, which made people feel sad.
"Our family is really sensible." A kind smile appeared on Fang's face, "I am relieved to see that you are so good to your younger brothers and sisters, and in the future, when I leave, this family can be delivered to you with confidence." ”
"Mother, what are you talking about?" Liu Man'er frowned and said, "My mother is a person who wants to live a long life. ”
A kind person like the Fang family is rare in the whole village, and Liu Man'er likes her even more kindly, being kind to her own people and being friendly to others, but she is not blindly cowardly, stupid and deceitful.
"Man'er's little mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter now." Fang still smiled lovingly, but didn't say anything more.
Several people sat silently in the small kitchen, eating the food in their mouths.
The two children, Ye He and Liu Fusheng, are very sensible, although they haven't eaten meat for a long time, this meal is rare today, although they eat a little wolf, but what makes Liu Man'er feel sad is that none of them went to clip the meat in this bowl, just a little sauerkraut and vermicelli, with a little soup, forget it.
"Why don't you eat meat?" Liu Man'er was a little puzzled, stretched out her chopsticks, and picked up the meat and put it in their bowl.
When the two children saw the meat in the bowl, they still refused to put their mouths down, but glanced at Fang Shi with blank eyes, and saw that Fang Shi didn't say anything, but nodded slightly, so they lowered their heads and ate happily.
This scene made Liu Man'er feel more and more sad, these two children are really too sensible.
I don't know what the original owner has in his head, and in the past year, he has relied on his strength to bully the two children like this, and after that, how can he be good to these two children in order to make up for it.
Silently picking up the rice in the bowl, she was hungry for a day today, and now, this is obviously a very delicious meal, but in her mouth, it tastes like chewing wax.
The next day, Liu Man'er got up early, however, when she opened the door, the two heads instantly appeared from outside the door, and Liu Man'er couldn't help but smile when she saw that it was Ye He and Liu Fusheng, "Why did you two get up so early?" Have you rinsed your mouth and washed your face? What about mothers? ”
Liu Fusheng nodded, meaning that he had rinsed his mouth, while Ye He replied: "My mother is coaxing Chenchen, the third brother went to the school." ”
"What about your eldest brother?" Liu Man'er blinked her eyes and asked.
Last night, Ye Yuan slept on a stool, and this morning, when she got up, she found that there was no one in the room.
"The eldest brother and the second brother went to the field to pull weeds." Ye He replied timidly: "He said that he won't go to the town today, so sister-in-law, will you still take us to the town?" ”
There was some expectation in these words, and after she finished speaking, she looked directly at Liu Man'er with her almond-like eyes.
Liu Man'er walked over, stretched out her palm, and made a gesture to hit her, which frightened Ye He and quickly turned her head, but Liu Man'er put her hand on the back of her head and grinned, "Of course you go, you guys go and get ready, and after I rinse my mouth and wash my face, we'll go." ”
"Hmm!" The two nodded heavily and ran away.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Liu Man'er smiled again, and then sighed again.
There are too many people in the family, and there are few who can work, and the most important thing is that there is little land, so that a family will eat several catties even if they eat rice every day.
Ahhh
What to do? What to do!
You have to find a way to make money.
But after thinking about it, she didn't have any great skills, she was poor when she was a child in her previous life, and was raised by a man who picked up garbage until she was eight years old, and then her own parents came to the door, and she still followed them.
She will always remember that scene, her adoptive father, so reluctant, but unfortunately, when she was young, she loved vanity and couldn't take care of her father's feelings, just thinking about escaping from this poor home as soon as possible, and when she grew up and repented, it was already too late.
In her parents' house, she eats and wears like a princess, but after all, she is not a princess, she can't have the temperament of a princess, but she develops an arrogant temper, and finally the family business was taken away by the adopted daughter of her own parents, and she also came here sadly after her death.
In her life, she has done many wrong things, but those wrong things are irreparable.
Now, she just wants to cherish the present, however, she realizes that there is very little time for books, and she doesn't know anything.
I think that at the beginning, she had also read a lot of time-traveling novels, and those heroines, they either traveled to the nobility of the family, wrote poems, paintings, dances, ate and drank, and intrigued. Either you have good cooking skills, or you are directly graduated from an agricultural university, and what crops you study can even save the world.
And she, isn't she the protagonist of this world at all? She won't know anything.
But she didn't have any other wishes, she just wanted to protect Ye Yuan and protect the family well, after all, Ye Yuan was not only her boyfriend in her previous life, but also her adoptive father's biological son.
So in this life, she must take good care of him, love him, and even protect him.
The little hand was clenched tightly, Liu Man'er ran to the kitchen, in the kitchen, Fang Shi was carrying Ye Tianchen on his back, he was busy at the moment, after seeing her, he hurriedly turned out two hot sweet potatoes from the stove:
"Man'er, are you hungry? The freshly baked sweet potatoes are fragrant. ”
"Thank you, mother, I'm not hungry, you can eat." Liu Man'er said that she was still washing her face with water.
After Liu Man'er picked herself up and was about to leave, Fang brought a big back basket over:
"Man'er, aren't you going to town today? Can you help my mother take out these straw ropes and sell them? ”
This straw rope is specially collected by a wharf in the town, but a bundle of straw rope is only a penny, a bundle of straw rope is ten meters long, two fingers thick, about ten catties, Fang's these straw ropes, probably can be sold for three pennies.
"This bundle of straw rope can be sold for three cents, and when the time comes, my mother can give you a penny to buy candy to eat, and you can get the remaining two cents back, and my mother will leave you to pull the flower cloth and make clothes, okay?"
The Fang clan was like coaxing a child, coaxing Liu Man'er so much, in fact, she didn't need to say so much, Liu Man'er would also nod her head and agree, but the original owner couldn't carry it clearly in his mind, so the Fang clan could only coax like this.
When Liu Man'er and the three of them were ready to leave for the town, Fang took out a few sweet potatoes from the stove.
To be honest, this kind of sweet potatoes roasted with wood fire are so fragrant, Liu Man'er felt salivating just by smelling them, sweet potatoes are not a valuable thing anyway, when Fang wanted to help put these sweet potatoes into Liu Man'er's back basket again, and let them take them to eat on the road, Liu Man'er did not refuse again.
On the way, the two children were very happy, jumping and jumping, and the world of the town was a big garden for them, full of temptation.
But in fact, for Liu Man'er, it is also the same, she is also very curious about the world.
The town is her first window, not to mention anything else, understand the prices, and then know that she should fight in that direction!
Today is the day of the market, and there are a lot of pedestrians on the road, and when I see Liu Man'er, most of them show a look of watching a good show.
"Yo, stupid mother, why is your mother willing to let you go out today?" Some people began to greet her when they saw Liu Man'er, of course, most of the people wanted to tease her.
In the past, Liu Man'er couldn't see their eyes, but now, Liu Man'er didn't allow these people to bully herself like this, didn't she see it, the two little children who were still around her just now have slowly moved away from her at the moment, and this feeling is as if she will embarrass them.
This reminded her of her father, who was far away from her at that time, and at that time, she was also like this, and now she knows what kind of pain her father must have felt in his heart at that time!
Originally, since she wanted to become a normal person, she wanted to say hello to these people, but seeing the actions of the two children, she suddenly lost interest.
Carrying the basket on his back, he didn't even pay attention to them, and Liu Man'er walked forward alone.
"Yo yo yo, look at this stupid girl, now that Ye Yuan of her family is back, she is still proud, and she doesn't even pay attention to us saying hello to her."
There were some playful voices of women in the back, who seemed to be bored by Liu Man'er's ignorance.
