Chapter 18

Wang Qiuju didn't expect that this girl could buy so much? She glanced at Hu Chunhua.

"Okay, just seven pounds. I can also make cotton hats and cotton gloves."

"Sister-in-law, each of these cotton melon seeds is about four taels, more than eighteen, less than seventeen."

"Then let's go to eighteen. Your family doesn't have a scale, right?"

"Well, I'll go to my mother-in-law's place to get it."

"This third aunt doesn't weave anymore, otherwise we wouldn't have to go to the market to buy the cloth."

"My mother-in-law's eyes are not working anymore, and she is gone. But my aunt is still weaving, and she weaves densely, but she is too far away."

Hu Chunhua urged Wang Qiuju to get the scale. "Yuanyuan, we will go to the market in a moment. Buy the cloth and make it quickly, but don't catch a cold."

"Aunt, I don't know what I would have done without you." Su Yuanyuan really thought so.

"Ahem, why are you still so young? I feel sorry for you."

There are three children in the family, the youngest one is as old as this girl, so it is inevitable that I feel pity for her in my heart.

"Auntie, I am lucky to have met you, and it is also God's compensation for me."

"Silly girl, how can I help you? I will lend a hand wherever I can."

Wang Qiuju came back, followed by an old lady.

"Sister-in-law, this bag contains fourteen cotton melon seeds, and this snakeskin bag contains one or two."

In the end, it was seven pounds and three ounces, so after all, it was seven pounds and two ounces. That was eleven dollars and sixteen cents, which was one penny less. This penny could buy several pieces of candy.

"Third Aunt, Qiu Ju, I'm going back, and I have to take this girl to the market."

"Chunhua, I came here just to tell you that my nephew is also selling cloth at the market. If you want to buy from him, just mention it to my house."

"Okay, I'll definitely go there and buy it. I'll need a lot. This girl is making quilts and cotton-padded clothes. I'll buy her some floral fabrics. She's a girl after all, isn't she?"

"Isn't that right? Go ahead, otherwise there will be too many people."

The two of them delivered the cotton directly to Hu Chunhua's home. It was so safe. Although no one was found at home, the two of them had just walked through the entire village with the cotton bags. They were not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

It was already getting late. Those who usually went to the market with Hu Chunhua had already left, so it was just the two of them who went together.

I saw a lot of people along the way, and I also saw the old lady of Wang Laogen's family. She snorted when she saw the two of them, but didn't say anything. She also wanted to be embarrassed.

"Girl, what do you want to buy?"

"Aunt, I think I lack everything, but what I want to buy most is a saw. I got a lot of dead trees. If I use an ax or a hatchet, it's too laborious and I can't do it. I thought it would be better if I had a saw.

Okay, that saves you trouble."

"Okay, go check it out on the market, it should be there. I remember I saw that kind of hand saw, which one is suitable for you to use."

"Auntie, do you think I can get a trolley too?"

"Actually, we should get one. It will be used when pushing manure into the ground, but you don't have manure at home."

Hu Chunhua cursed Su Daqiang and his wife again in his heart. They were really not human beings. They took the excrement and gave it away directly without asking for money. Why didn't they think about this girl? They were really not human beings. They couldn't live well anywhere like that.

Mainly because I have a bad heart.

"I saw it was available on the market, so I bought it. It can also be used in the autumn harvest, because you are your own family and no one is willing to work with you. Then you will have to do everything by yourself."

Su Yuanyuan didn't think that far ahead. It was only when she saw someone else had a stroller that she thought of buying one.

Listening to it this way, this stroller is really indispensable.

Hu Chunhua is right. In the future, you will have to rely on yourself for everything.

"There are wooden carts and iron carts. The iron cart costs thirty."

"Auntie, I want to be strong. I'm just afraid it won't be easy to say."

"Yes, this sheep said it was money I lent you. My family's life is like that, and no one would believe me even if I lent it to you.

If not, just say you borrowed it from the village chief."

"Auntie, do you think it would be too conspicuous if I had an iron trolley?"

"Yes, you are still a child. But in the future, if you have two acres of land and you don't have a good vehicle for autumn harvest, when will you get it back?"

"Then we'll talk about it later."

"Okay, I'll lend you my car then."

Su Yuanyuan didn't refuse, it was indeed too conspicuous. Let's talk about it then.

"Girl, you can still buy some small odds and ends."

"Yeah, I know. Auntie, you said I will get rid of the soil embryo next year when it is warm next year. How about asking my uncle to help me find someone to fence the yard when I have free time after autumn?

As for me, I’m scared to sleep at night, I can’t even feed myself, and I can’t even raise a dog to make me brave.”

"That would be too tiring."

Su Yuanyuan smiled bitterly, "Auntie, who isn't tired?"

"Yeah, who isn't tired? I have molds and tile tools at home. You can take them back when the time comes."

"Well, I saw that your soil also has wheat straw in it. Is it stronger without adding it?"

"Silly girl, if you don't put in the wheat straw, the soil won't crack. It has to be put in."

"So that's what happened? Then I can put in the hay, right?"

"I have a big pile of wheat straw at home. You can stretch it out and use it. When you get home, you can pack a few baskets back."

"Auntie, you can't haul away the soil in winter. We'll wait until later. I'll just transport the loess to the yard when I have free time. It's not cold yet to do some work."

"Girl, just take it off outside, no one will touch it. You don't have to waste your efforts."

Su Yuanyuan nodded in an educated manner. In fact, she was afraid that the fruits of her hard work would be taken away by others.

"Girl, it's half a month before the twelfth lunar month. There are a lot of pigs being killed in our village."

Su Yuanyuan understood what Hu Chunhua meant. "Aunt, I just want to buy the cheapest ones that no one wants to buy."

"Well, I just want to tell you not to be conspicuous in public. If you need anything, I will buy it for you."

"Auntie, what's the cheapest?"

"Lean meat, go into the water."

"When the time comes, I will buy a pound of lean meat. If it is cheap, I will buy it. If it is too expensive, forget it."

This child is so sensible, Hu Chunhua sighed, and he didn't know what Su Daqiang and his wife thought, that they would abandon such a good child.

In the future, even if they want to admit it, even if they don't know how to do it, they will be scolded so hard that they won't be able to hold their heads up.

The two met many people in the village and greeted them all. Su Yuanyuan followed behind and called for people, and then nothing happened.

Everyone looked at this girl curiously. Hu Chunhua took care of her so much, and he thought of everything. But no one said anything.

When we arrived at the market, we had time to stroll around slowly. Now Su Yuanyuan felt that she was missing even more things.

But you can't buy too much at one time. You know your situation well, and I'm afraid someone will miss you when the time comes.
