008 Seen in the hearts of the people for a long time
They got out of the car and screwed things into the town of Red Maple, as the name suggests, there are many maple trees planted in this town, and now it is the season of the maple leaves, and the streets are lively and festive.
Ah Chen took her to a store that collects prey, a grocery butcher shop.
He can occasionally catch some small animals on the outskirts of the back mountain, and at first he kept them for his own food, but he gave up if he didn't handle them well and sold them in the town for money.
He came and went and was quite familiar with the shopkeeper, his family was more sincere, he accepted any prey, and the bid was high, so he brought it here later.
"It's Ah Chen, and there is also prey sent today?"
Shopkeeper Li was holding a goatee at the front desk, looking like an amiable little old man.
"Yes, it's still a gray wolf." As he spoke, Ah Chen handed him the processed wolf skin from the back basket, and Feng Qinglan also put the wolf meat in his hand on the counter.
Shopkeeper Li then realized that she was with He Achen, "Who is this?" "Wasn't it his sister who came with him before? Could this be my sister?
Feng Qinglan doesn't look very old, but in fact, she is only eight years older than Ah Chen.
"It's my stepmother, please ask Uncle Li to calculate the price, we still have to go shopping." Looking at Shopkeeper Li's surprised eyes, Ah Chen directly changed the topic.
Yesterday he saw with his own eyes, shopkeeper Li chatted with a stranger who sold prey for most of the day, from the time he came to sell things to the time he left after buying things, they were still chatting.
"Okay, okay, these two are about the same color as the one yesterday, and the size is too, or count the same price as you, three taels and one, this is six taels, you can take it."
Shopkeeper Li touched the wolf's fur and nodded with satisfaction, and ordered five taels of silver and the usual copper coins from the cabinet drawer to them. It's no surprise to Ah Chen's cold-talking little temperament, hey, it's not cute at all.
"The shopkeeper has a heart." Feng Qinglan looked at the actions of Shopkeeper Li, smiled lightly, accepted the money, and said goodbye to him.
"Yes, there will be prey coming to me in the future." Shopkeeper Li stroked his beard, squinted and smiled.
This lady has really good eyes and is smart.
He had enough money in his drawer, but he thought it would be convenient for the two of them to buy small things, so he changed them to the usual copper coins. Although Feng Qinglan is thin, she is quite tall, about 1.7 meters, and she can see the small movements of the shopkeeper Li clearly.
Out of the grocery butcher shop, they went to buy things, today did not rush to the market Achen did not take bamboo shoots to sell, because there are not enough, this kind of shop or restaurant is not accepted, can only be sold to the citizens who rush to the market.
Feng Qinglan bought a lot of things, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, all kinds of seasonings, rice, flour and meat bought two catties each, as well as pots and pans, cotton cloth needlework...... In short, she almost made up for what she lacked at home.
Then he took Ah Chen into an alley, put the heavy objects and fragile items into the space before he went to buy others, and the six taels of silver he just earned spent four taels, hey, the money is really good to spend.
"Actually, there are things that don't need to be bought...... Ah Chen was a little distressed about the money, but he thought that the money was earned by the wolf she killed, and what she wanted to do with it was her business, and he couldn't care about it.
"If you want to buy it, you need it at home." Feng Qinglan tilted his head and saw his expression of wanting to speak and stopping, and sighed helplessly in his heart.
It's still a raw one, and Ah Chen distinguishes her from them very clearly. But don't worry, over time, at least her existence is being accepted.
It was almost noon when we got back to the outside of town.
"I'm sorry Uncle Niu, I've kept you waiting." It is true that a lot of time has been delayed by the many things I bought, and Feng Qinglan said politely and implicitly.
"Don't get in the way, old man, it's rare for me to steal half a day of leisure, chatting with people!" Uncle Niu pulled the sweat towel and said goodbye to the owner of the tea shop with a smile, and went to lead the car.
The two women got into the car with a basket filled with only cloth and cotton, and went home all the way home, and when they arrived at the door, they carried the packaged rice noodles in their hands and pushed the door in.
No one came to disturb her today, and Ah Ran was so idle that she pulled out all the weeds in the yard.
Suddenly I thought it was fun to make a fuss two days ago, but what's going on?
"Buying so many things? It's going to cost a lot, hey. Ah Ran muttered quietly, she thought the same as her eldest brother, the money from selling wolf meat was what the stepmother deserved, and how she wanted to spend it was her business.
After all, she didn't get anything good from marrying their father, and they were embarrassed to ask for her things...... But this money will not be saved at all, right?
The little girl wrinkled her face to help carry things, and Ah Yang ran out of the house when she heard the sound and hugged Feng Qinglan's thighs, and smiled at her with a small round face the size of a palm.
"Stepmother, Ah Yang smells sweet!"
"The little nose is really smart, the stepmother bought you candied fruit and sugar cakes." As he spoke, Feng Qinglan took out two packets of things wrapped in oiled paper from the back basket and handed them to Ah Yang.
"But you can't eat too much at once, otherwise you'll have a toothache." Raising his hand and rubbing Ah Yang's little head, Feng Qinglan was extremely pleased.
Ah Yang is the youngest and closest to her, but she was bought for just a few ordinary meals......
"Ah Yang knows, thank you stepmother~" Xiao Ah Yang said sweetly, rubbed on her leg and happily took something into the house.
Ah Chen and Ah Ran can't say anything when they look at it, it's good for the little brother to be happy, and it's good for the stepmother to return to normal.
If it can be so good all the time, it would be good.
"How about making braised pork for you at noon?" Feng Qinglan asked, picking up the pork in his hand.
"Everything."
Feng Qinglan: ......
She knew that she couldn't ask anything, forget it, she wouldn't ask in the future, and her actions proved everything.
