After paying, Chen Miao still let her two sons go into the basket. The two of them were a little clever. Instead of playing with fresh toys like the children, they put down the toys and curiously picked up the edge of the basket and looked outside.
I have no idea what to buy in terms of food, there is space in it, I just looked at the utensils.
She left, and the three young men following behind all left dejectedly. They were married and had sons, so they really overthought themselves.
Chen Miao saw that there was a peanut candy store in front of her, which she could give the children to eat.
In this day and age, you can rest assured that whatever you eat is absolutely harmless.
There was actually some melon seed candies. I bought a pound of each kind. I was really not used to having to wrap them with wrapping paper. I happened to have the cage I just bought in my hand. I just put it in so that the two children could eat it.
It is also convenient to wear.
Of course the sugar kids liked it. Seeing her sons' satisfied faces, Chen Miao had a smile on her face.
Yun Shan picked up a piece of peanut candy and handed it to Chen Miao's mouth, and Yun Xin also handed him a piece of melon seed praline candy.
It’s a lie if I’m not touched. I opened my mouth and sucked in the candies given by my two sons. I mumbled a thank you in my mouth.
I saw a shop selling cloth in front of me. Although the stuff was rough, it was made of pure cotton. Although there was some in the space, I still felt it was lacking. After asking around, I found that it was really cheaper than the county cloth shop.
"Auntie, I want to buy more, but there is really no way to take it back."
People also saw her with two such small children. "How many do you want?"
"Mom, I can cover everything, but I wonder if I can ask for less money?"
"Daughter, let me tell you that the reason why my price is cheaper than that of the cloth shop is that I don't want to make more money for bad reasons. Don't worry, the price is definitely low. I have hundreds of feet of coarse cloth here. You really
All of them?"
Chen Miao nodded, "You can take them all." She thought about saving more cloth. This thing is used a lot. If there is really a disaster and there is no food, where will the cotton be used to spin cloth?
"Daughter, if you buy them all, I will give you some good cloth, but not much, only one piece."
Chen Miao didn't know what so-called good cloth was, but it would be fine if someone could provide it.
"Okay, ma'am, you have to send it to me. Otherwise, you can tell me your home address and I can pick it up."
"Daughter, you go to my house. My old man has been gone for a few years, and only two of his daughters are married. I don't have a car at home, and I can't even put it in the cart I brought to you."
Chen Miao nodded, "Okay, I'll pick it up tomorrow."
After remembering this lady's address, she continued to go to the market.
"Chen Miao, Chen Miao."
She turned around and saw a woman in the village named Third Aunt calling herself.
"Third aunt, second sister-in-law, are you all here to go to the market?"
"Yes, you three have bought a lot, right?"
He was carrying baskets and baskets in his hands, and it looked like there were quite a few.
"I don't know how to knit. I saw that the baskets made by other people were pretty good, so I bought a few more. Third aunt, what are you going to buy at the market?"
"Your third uncle is here to sell grain. It's a penny cheaper at the market than in the town, but it's safe."
Chen Miao nodded, knowing all this. In fact, nothing is as important as safety.
"Chen Miao, you mother can take my car when you get home."
"Third Aunt, I don't know when to go back yet. You can go back when you should. You don't have to wait for me. Just take the car when you catch up with me."
Chen Miao saw that they didn't buy much. In fact, those who came to the market to sell goods were usually things from their own homes. It can be said that generally country people who can make a living and are handy will make their own necessities. The baskets and baskets they bought themselves are in the homes of ordinary people.
That's not a problem at all. You can make it up in a short time just by sitting there.
"Okay. Chen Miao, be careful. There are too many people in the gathering. You must keep an eye on the two children."
Chen Miao felt warm in her heart. Even though it was just a simple instruction, in her heart she thought it was good for herself.
After they separated, the mother and son continued shopping. There was actually a seller selling wild jujube noodles. In fact, these are children's favorite food. They can't be sold for much, but they take a lot of effort.
The two little ones didn't know what it was and didn't ask for it. When they saw a hemp rope seller, they needed a lot of it.
The seller was an old man. Looking at him, Chen Miao thought of his grandfather. Although it was the 1980s, his grandfather still had no time to spare. His hands were covered with calluses. At that time, he was holding
Grandpa's hands are particularly hard. Because of his age, his fingers are no longer flexible, but he can still twist hemp rope.
"Grandpa, I want all the hemp ropes."
"Girl, what do you need so much hemp rope for? They're not that thick."
"Grandpa, I can use them. How much do they cost?"
"If you want it all, just give me twenty copper coins."
Chen Miao took out the money, which contained a lot of hemp rope, and put it into two baskets. Although it was inconvenient, she still bought it. Seeing the folds of the old man's smile piled together, she was also happy.
Opposite there was a middle-aged man who was also selling hemp rope. When he saw that the little girl had bought so much, he said, "I also have hemp rope here," without even negotiating the price.
Chen Miao turned around and took a look. This middle-aged man only sold thick hemp ropes. She needed this. She went over and asked if the price was acceptable. She spent thirty copper coins and bought two bundles of thick hemp ropes.
.Both baskets are full. There is still half of the big market that has not been rushed. It is too inconvenient to carry it like this.
Fortunately, I met Uncle Wang from the village soon, and he had almost sold out his grain.
"Third uncle, help me carry the basket back."
Wang San nodded, "Zhong. Xiaofeng's wife, I'll be back in a while. Will you take the car?"
"Third uncle, I can't. It's hard to come here. I want to take a look around."
"Zhong, I'll pull the basket back for you, put it here."
Feeling much more relaxed now, the mother and son continued to go to the market. They saw someone selling embroidery.
Chen Miao thought it was quite novel, and her needlework was only average. When she was a child, a bunch of young girls learned how to make insoles from the elders at home. She knew how to do simple things, and she already felt very good if she could sew a flower. That
Sometimes I envy my little sisters who can sew patterns like magpies climbing branches.
Squatting down and looking at the embroidery on the stall, I was really surprised. "Grandma, your hands are so skillful."
"Hey, what a coincidence. I live alone. I can't do it anymore at my old age. I only have this little skill. Who can buy these if life is not easy now?" If life were not too difficult, I would not be willing to come to the big market.
On the market, there are actually big markets every day, but they are not in the same village. She has already attended three big markets, but nothing has been sold.
It's not enough not to come. I don't have much food, and I want to buy myself a coffin quickly. I'm afraid I'll be buried wrapped in a straw mat.
Thinking of this, the old man's eyes turned red. Why is it so difficult to live in this life?
