Chapter 9: Helping Others
Fu Ciyi glanced to the side, her skin was fair, and her side face was exquisite.
Soon, he quietly looked away and said indifferently: "Mother's meaning." ”
"Oh."
Yan Fu Ning answered, remembering the road as she walked, and she could go to the town alone next time.
The two didn't say anything more all the way.
After another half an hour, we finally arrived in town.
The streets of the town are paved with bluestone slabs, with gently curled eaves on both sides, and there are many shops and pedestrians and vendors.
Fu Ciyi's eyes wandered the street, saw a bookstore, and said sideways: "Two quarters of an hour later, this place will converge." ”
"Okay." Yan Funing nodded.
Seeing him walk away, her eyes moved to the side of the street, and there were many people squatting on the ground, with different vegetables in front of them.
It was a way to set up a stall like this, but she soon found that the problem was that people who came and went generally only asked, and rarely bought it.
If she was like them, it would be difficult for her to sell out the oyster mushrooms in her back basket in two quarters of an hour, so she would have asked an inn or tavern.
Paying attention, she walked towards a restaurant in front of her.
Halfway through, a little girl's cry caught her attention.
She followed the prestige, only to see a man in his twenties holding the little girl at the door of the medical hall, and his voice was choked: "My daughter is crying like this, can she do it well, help me see it first?" ”
The people in the medical hall replied to him at the top of their voices: "Look at your appearance, it's a question of whether you can come up with a penny, what if you can't afford it?" ”
While comforting his daughter, the man begged: "Please help my daughter heal her arm, and I will make up the consultation fee when I go back!" ”
At this time, the doctor in the museum came out slowly: "Your daughter's arm will be useless if you don't look at it again, if you have money, go back and get it first." ”
As soon as he heard this, the man was so anxious that he almost cried: "If you don't look at it again, it will be wasted, please help take a look as soon as possible!" ”
Just as he was about to kneel down and kowtow to plead, Yan Funing bent down slightly and grabbed the little girl's arm.
With just one touch, she knew that the little girl was just dislocated.
Then he took the little girl's wrist with one hand, supported her elbow with the other, pressed his thumb against the radial head, and stretched and bent with skill, and a slight snap sounded.
The doctor in the hall glanced at Yan Funing and said to the middle-aged man: "Your daughter's arm is touched by irrelevant people like this, and it is even more difficult to heal again." ”
The man was puzzled: "This girl, my daughter's arm ......"
Yan Funing touched the little girl's face and asked gently, "You raise your arm to see, does it still hurt?" ”
The little girl blinked her tear-beaded eyes, raised her little arm, and suddenly laughed: "It doesn't hurt!" ”
The man happily asked, "It really doesn't hurt?" ”
The little girl shook her head and said in a milky voice, "Daddy, it really doesn't hurt anymore." ”
The man pinched his daughter's elbow in disbelief to make sure it didn't hurt anymore, and then remembered to thank the girl who was carrying the basket.
The father and daughter looked around, where was the figure of the girl?
At this moment, Yan Funing had already entered a restaurant.
"Boss, this is a wild oyster mushroom picked in the mountains, can you get a good price?"
She put down the basket and took an oyster mushroom for the shopkeeper to see.
The shopkeeper took it and pinched it, nodded and praised: "Yes, fresh and tender." He immediately compared the number, "Since this is wild, I will give you twenty-five wen a catty." ”
Yan Funing didn't know what level the twenty-five wen was, and recalled the part of the book that cost money, and there was very little description of prices, so she had to ask: "How much is a pound of rice now?" ”
The shopkeeper looked at her, seeing that she was not dressed like a person with no money, and thought, which daughter of the family came to experience life in order to be able to be in charge of her in-law's family in the future.
So he frankly quoted a price: "Ten cents a catty." ”
"Then do you want my wild oyster mushroom?"
The shopkeeper bowed: "It's really wild, I want it." ”
Yan Funing discussed with him: "These oyster mushrooms were picked by my own hands, for the sake of this hard work, can it be counted as thirty wen a catty?" ”
How can there be such a bargain? It can be seen that the girl in front of her is indeed from a big family, and she has no concept of money.
This basket of oyster mushrooms is estimated to have been picked by her family.
The shopkeeper smiled and shook his head: "It's five cents, girl." ”
Raised his hand and ordered Xiao Er to weigh it, except for the back basket, the net weight of oyster mushrooms was seven catties and eight taels.
Yan Funing discussed again: "Then even if it's eight catties, it's better to calculate it, a total of two hundred yuan." ”
"The girl will settle accounts!" The shopkeeper smiled, "It's up to you, count eight catties, and remember to bring your family to my store for dinner next time." ”
The shopkeeper asked Xiao Er to accept the oyster mushrooms, counted two hundred dollars to Yan Funing, and saw that she had no money bag, so he gave a red rope.
Yan Fu thanked him, put on the copper plates one by one with a red rope, and put them in his sleeve pocket.
The sleeve suddenly became heavy, and she carried the empty basket on her back to the grain and oil store across the street.
I bought rice and flour at the grain and oil store, and bought some spices by the way, but the two hundred wen were almost used up, and there was still ten wen left.
Estimating that the appointed hour had arrived, Yan Funing walked quickly to the street.
This basket contained twelve catties of rice, five catties of flour, and spices, which made her shoulders ache.
Where did the delicate body of the female partner carry such a heavy object, and after only a few steps, she was out of breath.
Fu Ciyi had been waiting for a while, and when he saw her coming, his breath was very unstable, so he quietly glanced at her back basket.
The contents of the basket are packed in cloth bags, like rice noodles and the like.
This woman really sold the oyster mushrooms.
He coughed lightly: "Do you want to take a car?" ”
At this moment, the driver he met when he came shouted at them: "The little couple should take the car, and the two of them will pay ten cents." ”
The pain in Yan Funing's shoulder made her care less about what others called her and someone.
Moreover, they are indeed husband and wife now.
She quietly pinched the only ten copper plates left in her sleeve pocket, which could buy a pound of rice.
The driver patted the two vacant seats next to him: "The little couple has already saved money when they come, do they have to save money when they go back?" It's not that economical. ”
Yan Fu Ning really couldn't carry the back basket full of rice noodles, pursed her lips and was about to speak, when she heard a cool voice sound.
"When our husband and wife came, we paid the copper money in advance, and my father-in-law gave you two more copper plates, how can you give up our seat to others?"
The driver smiled: "If you don't come for a long time, I want to rush back first, and then take you with me on the next trip." ”
The young woman snorted, turned to Yan Funing, stretched out her five fingers and flipped them a few times: "Fifteen yuan, you give us fifteen yuan, and these two sons will give it to you." ”
Yan Fu Ning said: "We won't sit on the seats you have booked." ”
The young woman scoffed, "Can't get fifteen pennies? ”
Fu Ciyi stood beside Yan Funing and asked lightly, "Do you want to sit?" ”
"Nope."
Yan Funing pinched the copper coins in her sleeve pocket again, she really couldn't take out fifteen pennies.
If you can walk, you can naturally walk back.
Not wanting to look at the young woman's face anymore, Yan Funing took a step and left.
Suddenly, there was a light on her back, and she hurriedly looked sideways, only to see someone carrying the handle on the back basket.
"I'll carry it." He said.
