"If you guys let me know that you are disobedient, you will be beaten later."
"Uncle, we saw that little girl again today. She came to meet us carrying a bundle of branches."
"Don't worry about her affairs."
The young men stopped talking now, but they must be unconvinced.
At night, Yang Hongwen and his wife were lying on the kang, "Are you telling the truth?"
"No, I didn't pay attention before. When I saw the big wild boar, I thought that girl was evil. Then I remembered that after I got into the water, it was up to my chest. The little girl was not tall enough at all, but she just floated.
On the water."
"Can it still be like this? In fact, I don't believe that a little girl like her can kill a wild boar weighing several hundred kilograms. Even more, I don't believe that she can kill it by herself. I still want to go up the mountain and have a look.
Now I finally believe it. But can you give that little girl that much money?"
"I think it would be bad if someone was worried about her money.
Besides, I don’t want to be suspected. Three hundred yuan is a lot of money, but it’s someone’s life money, so it’s not much.”
"Yes, you didn't pay for it with your life. I heard from Chunhua that the girl's belly is green. She is also lucky. If something in her belly is damaged, there will be no way to survive."
Su Yuanyuan got up early the next day, but she couldn't let others cover her bed.
After eating a bowl of egg fried rice and a glass of milk, I felt so full and happy.
Everything is ready, just waiting for Hu Chunhua to come.
Su Yuanyuan knew that she didn't need tickets yet, so she could buy more things. But she couldn't buy too much at once. Anyway, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Hu Chunhua came over. She was accompanied by two women.
Su Yuanyuan recognized that these were the two people who gave her brown sugar and ginger that day.
"Auntie, third aunt." She greeted the big guy with a smile.
"Let's go to the market. Girl, what do you want to buy?"
Su Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Third Aunt, I don't have anything, but I want to buy a kitchen knife, an axe, and I don't have any basins."
"The blacksmith from the county will definitely come over today, and you should also buy a sickle, a hoe, a big pick, a digging shovel, a flat shovel, a flat knife, and a small hoe.
All these spring planting lands can definitely be used. Your family used to have six people. Now, although you only have land, you still have two acres of land. It’s hard work for a little girl like you. You’ll go there when the time comes.
You can’t borrow it, everyone has to use it.”
"Third Aunt, I understand. You guys will help me choose in a while, but I don't understand either."
"Okay, we'll help you choose, and we can also help you negotiate the price. By the way, you also need to buy a pair of scissors."
The four people were walking on the road, all talking about what they wanted to buy.
Su Yuanyuan was unsure, did she have enough money? After calculating this, she really had to buy a lot of things. Are you still thinking of buying some food?
"Auntie, I only have half a bag of corn kernels at home. I want to buy some grain."
"You don't have to go to the market to buy this. You can find it in the village."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. "Auntie, what can I buy?"
"You can buy everything, but not much white flour."
"Just buy a pound of white flour. I want to make some dumplings for my grandpa during the Chinese New Year."
"Okay. I'll help you organize things when you get back. My family doesn't have much food and there's nothing to sell."
"I have it at home, girl, what do you want?"
"Auntie, just give me one pound of white flour, two pounds of millet, fifty pounds of sorghum, and fifty pounds of corn."
In the little girl’s memory, there was a lot of sorghum planted in the village this year.
"Okay, I'll take it to you when you get back."
There are quite a lot of people going to the market like them. Because it is the slack time for farmers, everyone has been tired for such a long time. Now they finally have a chance. Of course, they all want to go out for a walk.
"Auntie, is there anyone selling cloth at the market? I want to make a dress. It would be better if there was cotton.
Of course, I have to prepare the farm tools first. I also have to set aside money to buy food. If I have enough money, I will buy it.
Auntie, how much does the food I just asked for cost?"
"Sorghum rice costs 10 cents per catty, and fifty jins is 5.5 yuan. White flour is 50 cents. Millet is 2 cents. Corn is 10 cents, which is also 5.5 yuan. Just give me twelve cents, and I will give you three catties of millet."
"Okay, thank you, aunt." Su Yuanyuan said as she took out twelve yuan and handed it to Meng Xiangtian's family. "Aunt, please put it away first. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold you in my arms for a while, and I'll want to buy everything I see.
.
In fact, I know that nothing is as important as food, and people will starve to death if they don’t have anything to eat. If there is only fifty cents left, just watch and order for me.” Zhao Guiying from Meng Xiangtian’s family did not refuse and took it directly.
In fact, she was also afraid that the child would spend all the money. The total was only sixty-three yuan, which sounded like a lot, but this girl was short of everything. She would not be without food when the time came.
Hu Chunhua didn't say anything. She also believed that the most important thing to buy was food. It seemed that this girl was a sensible person.
Now Su Yuanyuan felt much more relaxed and happy.
An hour later they arrived in the countryside. This was the biggest gathering.
"Auntie, can you go buy farm tools with me first, and then I'll wait for you on the side."
"Okay. The people selling farm tools are also outside." This way there will be no delay.
When Su Yuanyuan saw the iron tools on the ground, she really felt that she might not be able to go back. She wanted everything.
Kitchen knife, scissors, sickle, hatchet, hoe. Two shovels, a large pick, a small pick, a small hoe, and a knives. A total of eleven items.
"I said, Lao Yang, how much did you pay for buying so much?" Hu Chunhua asked.
"It will definitely be cheaper for you to buy it, so how about you give me a total of eighteen yuan? Do you think my price is reasonable?"
"It's okay to give you eighteen yuan, but you have to give me a shovel handle and a pickaxe handle."
"That's really not possible. You also know that those are not my goods. If you all match them, just give me two dollars."
"Then stick to this knife. You can see it. This is a farm tool bought for this little girl. Her cruel parents left her alone and left her with nothing. You should also take pity on this little girl.
child."
Su Yuanyuan followed Zhao Guiying's words with a very pitiful expression on her face.
"Okay, I'll go all out today. I'll stick it on." The iron tools are put directly into the frame, and the handles are directly tied together, so you can only hold them.
Su Yuanyuan gave her twenty yuan, and she felt relieved now. This money was still strictly forbidden to be spent.
"Auntie, you go shopping. I'm also looking around and want to buy some pots."
"Let's go. We'll go after I finish shopping for you."
The main reason is that the money in this girl's hand will be touched by others.
Su Yuanyuan looked at the aluminum basin and really didn't like it, but there was nothing she could do about it. Anyway, it was just a show.
