Until the end, everyone had a lot of things in their hands and couldn't hold them anymore, and the three little ones all held those snacks in their hands.

"Eldest sister, let's buy too many dim sum, we can't take this anymore, what should we do?" Xia Jiu looked at everyone's hands full of things, and became worried, and he hadn't bought the meat and vegetables he ate for the New Year.

This day is about to spend fifty taels to go out, if it was left in the past, she felt that fifty copper plates were too much, and today she actually spent fifty taels, I can't think about it.

"It's okay, let's go home first, put our things down, and then I'll come out with Xinghe to buy the rest!"

Xia Qiyue had already planned to let the children go shopping, buy one and send them home, and then go out with his younger brother to buy others.

Otherwise, it would be so cold that the two children would not be able to stand it at all.

"Good! Let's go back now! Xia Jiujiu was holding all kinds of pastries selected by the three children in his hands, and his hands were not frozen.

"Go back..."The little ones are already satisfied, and now they want to go home and eat delicious food, where do they want to go shopping on a cold day.

Xia Qiyue nodded, it's okay, hurry up and buy everything she should buy back, she still has to fry meatballs and steam steamed buns.

So, the six of them rushed home, and they didn't meet any acquaintances along the way, maybe the people in the village should have bought the New Year's goods a long time ago, plus they all lived in sheds, and there was nothing to buy, and the only patriarch's family who moved into the new house had already bought it.

Successfully arrived home, Xia Qiyue gave all the snacks he bought back to a few people and put them on the kang, let his sister take the three little ones to eat, and after warming up, he drove out with his younger brother.

This time I bought a lot of things, so I drove to avoid having to carry back such heavy things.

The two of them went straight to the market.

First of all, I bought pork, Xia Qiyue didn't have to buy so much, and I couldn't eat so much at home.

But Lao An's family is coming for the New Year, she was more or less a virgin at that time, thinking about the man she hadn't met, thinking about the two children at least Lao An's species, plus she wants to do business, and the children will have to take the imperial examination in the future, and the relationship with the family can't be too deadlocked, so I agreed to celebrate the New Year together.

I promised to say yes, I still let people eat and drink well, and I am not short of that bit of silver, if Lao Anjia is safe and does not be a demon, I can still be safe with them.

It's not a trouble to be able to get away with a little food, but she's afraid that they want more, and even hurt her children with some bad idea.

When Xia Qiyue arrived at the butcher shop, there was not much meat left, and the rest were lean pork ribs, backbones and the like.

The butcher shop owner saw that Xia Qiyue still knew her because she often bought meat from him.

"Girl, why are you here so late today? All the good fat is gone, and all that's left is the bones and lean meat! ”

Xia Qiyue smiled, "It's over with the children to buy clothes, it's okay, just weigh these two ribs for me!" Weigh me ten pounds of this meat again!" ”

The meat seller saw that Xia Qiyue was so good at talking, and he weighed the ribs for her in a slippery manner, two ribs looked like twenty-six catties, and one catty and ten copper plates were given, which was only two hundred and sixty wen, plus ten catties of meat, and fifteen wen a pound of lean meat, that is, one hundred and fifty wen, Xia Qiyue just wanted to pay the silver to the boss, and the boss said mysteriously, "Girl, I still have some beef here, do you want it?" ”

Beef? Xia Qiyue was puzzled, because in ancient times, cattle could not be killed casually, unless they were old cows that were too old to be cultivated or disabled cows.

"What? Is the meat good? Xia Qiyue asked.

The boss nodded like pounding garlic, "It's very tender, it's not an old cow, it's a five-year-old calf, I got it from a relationship, and I saw that the girl didn't buy fat today, so I wanted to give you a little!" ”

Xia Qiyue immediately nodded, "Okay, then the boss can buy as much as I can for me, I'll buy as much as I want!" ”

In the end, Xia Qiyue bought five catties of beef at a price of fifty wen a catty.

There is relatively little pork ribs, but it is not the kind without meat, and the lean meat is not pure and without fat.

With these five catties of beef, Xia Qiyue wants to use these five catties of beef to make beef dumplings to eat.

She didn't want any steak, beef stew or anything, she just wanted to eat a meal of beef and green onion stuffed dumplings, she hadn't eaten it for a long time, and she was hungry.

If she could, she still wanted to kill a cow to eat, and the cow in her space was not registered in the yamen, so it didn't hurt to kill it, even the three cows in the backyard were not registered, but she wouldn't kill the cow......

After buying the meat, now the vegetables are bad, I want to eat dumplings for the New Year, I bought pork, and there are vegetables in the space that can be bought, but now it is impossible to have those vegetables in the winter, so I can't take them out in Xia and July, so I can only take my younger brother to the market to try my luck and see if anyone is selling vegetables.

It was noon, so the people who sold cabbage and radishes in the market couldn't be found at all, only a one that sold potatoes, but it was almost gone, and the rest were small potatoes like a child's fist.

Xia Qiyue didn't like that gadget and didn't want to buy it at all.

"Eldest sister, why don't we go to the south side of the street and have a look!" Xia Xinghe proposed.

"Forget it, let's go home! There is still some food at home, it should be enough! Xia Qiyue shook her head, this is going to be the New Year, the vegetables must be sold fast, it's noon, they must all be sold out, and it's the same when she buys it from the space.

When the siblings returned home, they could hear a loud chatter from outside the yard.

"Sister, why are there so many people in the family?" Xia Xinghe's face was a little worried, and he quickly jumped out of the carriage and pulled the rope.

"The people of the old An family are here!" Xia Qiyue's face was gloomy, and she heard the voice of Lao An's wife from her voice.

She said that she wanted them to come over again in Chinese New Year's Eve, but they all came over so early, what is this going to do?

"What should I do?" Xia Xinghe didn't know what to do for a while? There is only the second sister and three children at home, maybe the house has been turned over, what should I do now?

"Let's go inside!" Xia Qiyue had already jumped out of the carriage and walked towards the courtyard.

As soon as I opened the courtyard door, I saw Liu Mei looking in with the kitchen door.

"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?" Xia Qiyue's cold voice sounded, and Liu Mei, who was frightened, almost fell down.

Quickly turned around, and greeted with smiling faces, "Oh, the fourth brother and sister are back?" Cold or not? Hurry into the house and warm up! ”

said that it was like this home was hers, Xia Qiyue ignored her, and walked straight past her to the kitchen, but saw that the kitchen had been locked, and secretly praised her sister for a good job.

"Fourth brother and sister, why is the kitchen still locked in broad daylight?" Liu Mei didn't seem to see Xia Qiyue's cold face, and stepped forward to look.

"I'm afraid of thieves!" Xia Qiyue still said coldly, but answered Liu Mei's question, "Sister-in-law, what is this doing?" What are you looking at through our kitchen door? ”

Liu Mei coughed embarrassedly, "Isn't it, your eldest nephew said that he was hungry, we came out early in the morning and traveled so far that we didn't drink a sip of water!" ”
