Chapter Forty-Six: Buying Spree
Xia Jiujiu, in the eyes of her sister, reluctantly ate two buns one by one.
The two children looked at the meat buns, and Xuan'er suddenly said, "Brother Lobby and Brother Second Cousin once said that meat buns are particularly delicious, so they really didn't lie to me." ”
Xia Qiyue's nose was a little sour in an instant, the two children were three years old, not to mention the meat buns, even the fine grains were eaten after she came.
Usually there is no division between them and their children at all.
"Eat it! In the future, my mother will give you steamed buns every day, okay? Xia Qiyue's voice softened and softened.
As long as these two children are there, they will no longer be lost, even if the man who was in the army dies outside, she can take good care of the two children alone.
"Mother, just eat steamed buns, you can't eat meat buns every day, then your mother is too tired, Ke'er doesn't want it!"
The little girl's eyes suddenly turned red, and the meat buns that she had eaten half of them suddenly felt unfragrant.
Xia Qiyue coaxed again, "Ke'er and Xuan'er are too young and thin, they need to eat better to grow up faster, so as to protect their mothers, doesn't Ke'er still have to make good food for her mother?" How can I make it for my mother if I don't grow up? ”
Otherwise, the children's thinking is still simpler, listening to their mother's words, the two children took a big bite of the buns.
Finally able to sleep peacefully, Xia Qiyue and the other four finished eating the buns and turned off the oil lamp in the house, and then went to bed and hugged the two children to sleep.
She didn't wake up until dawn when An Wang knocked on the door.
Hearing the sound of An Wang's knocking on the door, he quickly opened the door.
I saw An Wang holding a small cloth bag in his hand, "July, my aunt brought you some grain, although it is not fine grain, at least give the children a hot porridge!" Hurry up, let's cook porridge with my aunt! ”
Xia Qiyue wanted to refuse, but An Wang's family didn't allow her to refuse, so he pulled her to the stove room.
"Auntie, I'll take the pot and water first..."Xia Qiyue hurriedly spoke.
An Wang smiled at this time, and waited for her to take the pot and water out.
glanced at the small iron pot in Xia Qiyue's hand, his eyes lit up, but he nodded instead, "It's good that you can think about buying a pot, don't care about anything in the future like in the village!" Although the two children are the seeds of Lao An's family, they are also the meat that fell from your body, don't leave them alone! ”
Xia Qiyue sounded a little confused at first, but thinking about the original owner's approach, the original owner didn't care about the unequal treatment of the children in Lao An's house most of the time, which was also the reason why Lao An's family became worse.
She didn't speak, just nodded.
An Wang's gave him about half a catty of brown rice, and Xia Qiyue had to cook porridge, but he took out the coarse salt he bought and put some in An Wang's porridge.
Of course, the patriarch's family has salt, but they are a little reluctant to eat it all at once, so they eat a dish with salt in two days or put some salt in the wild vegetable paste.
Several people also ate coarse grain porridge deliciously, Xia Qiyue looked at the four people who were not picky eaters, and then looked at themselves who couldn't swallow it, shook his head and smiled, and forced himself to eat the porridge in the bowl.
When I first came, the wild vegetable buns were all delicious, and I couldn't eat coarse grain porridge after two days of good days, what is the reason.
After eating and decocting the medicine for the two children, Xia Qiyue couldn't sit still.
She looked inward and saw that the crops were ripe, and she was itching and wanted to go out and buy something and come back.
At least buy some bedding, cloth and clothes, and then buy a clay pot to pickle some pickles, and usually drink porridge and eat steamed buns to eat together.
Cabbage, pickled side dishes, pickles and pickles are all delicious, and she can't take them out to cook and eat them generously, so she can only eat them like this.
Besides, she wants to see if she can cook something in the space today.
Raising chickens is not only for eggs, she mainly wants to drink chicken soup and eat chicken, but the chicken tastes too big when cooked outside, it is not safe, if it is cooked in the space, secretly take it out to drink and eat, it should be better.
"Mother, do you still want to go out?"
Without waiting for Xia Qiyue to say that she was going out, Xuan'er had already seen her intentions and asked first.
Xia Qiyue smiled, this kid observed her expression really well, and actually saw that she was going out.
She stepped forward and touched the little brains of the two children, "Yes, my mother still has to go out to have a look, will you listen to my aunt obediently?" ”
"Is it dangerous?" Xuan'er continued to ask, he usually doesn't talk much, but he will get to the point when he speaks.
"It's not dangerous, my mother just went out to buy something and came back, don't worry about coming back soon!"
The warmth in her heart passed, and she knew that while she was sincere to her two children, the two children were also truly loving her.
After speaking, he explained to his younger brothers and sisters, and asked them to lock the door and not let others come in and go out.
She still went out through the corner door of the backyard, for fear of alarming the patriarch's family and An Laozhuang's father and son.
After coming out of the cul-de-sac, there was a restaurant opposite the medicine hall, but the doors and windows were closed, and there was no business at all.
Walking along this street in Xia Qiyue, the town can't be compared with Liulin County, but I still see a few open for business.
Among them are cloth farms and grocery stores.
Xia Qiyue has silver tickets in her hands, so she went to Buzhuang first, she bought more things from Buzhuang, and the silver tickets would not be too prominent.
When I entered the cloth village, I saw that although the door was open, there was no one, not even the shopkeeper.
"Anyone? Shopping! Xia Qiyue tried to shout.
No response.
"Is there anyone? Is the shopkeeper absent? Shopping! ”
shouted again, only to hear the door curtain shaking, and a woman in her thirties came out of the back door, looking at Xia Qiyue's sloppy dress with a somewhat unkind face, "What do you want to buy?" ”
Listening to this voice, Xia Qiyue knew that the shopkeeper looked down on her, but she didn't turn around and leave, and she really didn't see a second cloth village in the town.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any ready-to-wear here? I'm going to buy ten sets! Inside and out! ”
If you look down on her, then she will buy it to make her look affordable, and money can make the devil grind.
At this moment, the shopkeeper was indeed shocked, and he didn't dare to look down on Xia Qiyue anymore, so he hurriedly took her to choose clothes for her.
Adults and children have ready-made ones, and Xia Qiyue chose two sets of inner and outer clothes for each of the five people, and then began to choose fabrics.
I wanted to buy cotton again, but there wasn't much cotton, only ten catties, and it was all wrapped up in Xia and July.
Not only that, but also the eight sets of existing futons in the cloth village are also fully rounded.
At this moment, the store was almost cleared, but there was also a lot of silver, a total of 11 taels and 5 coins of silver.
"In this way, if you buy so much, I'll be cheaper with you, just give you a whole dozen or one taels!"
The shopkeeper couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
Xia Qiyue looked at a large pile of Luo Laogao's bedding and cloth cotton, as well as ten sets of ready-to-wear clothes that were neatly wrapped and wrapped, although she didn't know the consumption level here, she still felt that it was almost worth the price, so she nodded and paid the silver, and asked the shopkeeper to follow her to send the things to the corner gate in the backyard of the medicine hall.
