Chen Miao also noticed the changes in the old man. He really didn't know how to persuade him. Who living in this era wouldn't find it difficult?
"Grandma, how can such a big piece of cloth be embroidered in the middle?" Chen Miao likes this pattern, rich peonies, and the color scheme is really nice.
"It can be made into pillow leather."
Chen Miao understood now. She picked out a few patterns. "Grandma, how much does this cost?"
"Girl, why did you buy so much?" Although she wanted to exchange everything into money, she was also afraid that the girl would be beaten by the adults in the family if she bought it back.
"Grandma, I like embroidery, but I'm clumsy and can't do it. I'll use it slowly in the future, and maybe I can keep it for my sons in the future." Chen Miao said with a smile.
"These two boys are your sons?" The old man was quite surprised, mainly because this girl looked so young.
Even though people are getting married at a young age now, it doesn't look like this girl has ever given birth to a child.
"Yes, these are my two sons."
"Girl, stop spending money blindly. Men won't be willing to do it later." It's not easy for women. It's not worth being beaten and scolded by a man for spending money blindly.
"Grandma, it's okay, my man doesn't care about this."
The old lady sighed. Forget it, she can buy so much and she can change it into money, so why not?
Chen Miao happily gave the money, put the embroidery into a basket, and continued to the market with her two children on her back.
It's a leisurely stroll, everything looks good, but I don't need much.
I didn’t expect that there are people selling eggs? It’s not summer now, and there are very few eggs. Even if I buy more eggs, I won’t worry about them spoiling. Besides, my mother needs a lot of eggs. She even ordered ten chicks a few days ago.
I will raise more eggs next year. Just eating eggs can still satisfy the children.
The price of eggs in winter was a penny more than in summer, but Chen Miao still bought them all. There were thirty eggs in total. Since there was no place to put them, they kindly gave the basket to Chen Miao.
A caring person has been following them, watching her spend money, and knowing that this girl has a lot of money. Seeing the money, she has bad thoughts in her heart.
Chen Miao really didn't pay attention. She didn't think it was necessary. She just wanted to keep an eye on her two sons. In such a crowded place, it would be too tiring to pay too much attention to anything.
The more people walked away, the more people were selling things. Seeing that the peanut corners were particularly uniform, Chen Miao thought about it and bought ten kilograms. Then she went back to planting peanuts.
The peanut seeds in the space are all hybridized, and the yield must be higher than that of this era. However, it is still the food security of this era. Try planting some and try which ones taste better.
There are a lot of food sellers here. I saw some selling red beans and rice beans. I really haven’t grown them yet. When I saw these two kinds of beans, I thought of bean buns.
I bought five kilograms of one kind. The grains are full and I can plant some next year. Chen Miao sighed in her heart that poor people are like this. They always want to give away or sell the best ones. Looking at the beans he bought, he sighed. If only he must
Keep the good ones for yourself and eat them.
There were all kinds of food sellers, and the place she traveled to should be a plain area. There were many varieties of crops, and millet, so you could buy some. The millet porridge was delicious, and many people who bought it gave the bags to her directly. When she saw the sesame seeds
I also wanted to buy a pound, but there was no bag to put it in, so I had to give up. There was a livestock market in front of me, and although there was nothing I wanted to buy, I still took my kids to have a look.
"This is a cow." Chen Miao pointed to his two sons and said.
There are also people who raise cattle in the village. Cows are more capable than donkeys and their prices are also higher.
The two children were very curious about the cow, and they both looked at it. Chen Miao came closer, allowing the two children to see more clearly.
After watching it for a while, he moved on. The children had never seen a horse before, and Chen Miao didn't know what to say. It can be said that horses and donkeys are somewhat similar in appearance. The two children just looked at it for a while and then shifted their gaze.
.
They knew the sheep, they had them at home, but there were nothing new. The livestock here were just these types. After walking around in a circle, Chen Miao decided to go home.
I didn't want to go back the way I came, there were still so many people, so I just left behind the stall.
There were also sellers here and there, but Chen Miao didn't buy anything else.
There was no rush, so she walked back slowly. On the way, the two children wanted to sleep, and it was a bit windy. She really didn't want the children to fall asleep for fear of catching a cold.
He kept talking to the two brothers, and took out two biscuits from the space, which were particularly hard, just like teething sticks, and let the two of them eat them, speeding up their pace. When they got home, they were both energetic.
It's already one o'clock, so my mother-in-law cooks dumplings to eat.
After eating, she let them go to bed. She cleaned up the house and didn't see anyone selling shoes for children at the market. In fact, she had to make her own shoes to fit her feet.
In the evening, as I was preparing to have dinner, I heard a rapid knock on the door outside.
Chen Miao agreed and ran to open the door.
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"
Liang Caixia was a little anxious, "Third girl, you go up the mountain with your father. Your eldest brother and the others haven't come back yet. I'll stay at your house to look after the children."
Chen Miao nodded, "Okay, I'll put on my coat."
The couple also followed them into the house. Chen Miao was putting on her coat while talking to the two children, "You two stay at home with grandma, and you will sleep in a while."
The two brothers looked up at their mother. After all, they were still young and didn't know much.
"I'll feed them both."
"Mom, just one spoonful of porridge and one egg per person."
Chen Miao gave instructions and the father and daughter hurried up the mountain.
Because they were anxious, the two of them didn't speak. It was already dark, and now that they haven't come back, of course the family is worried.
That is, when I arrived at the sweet potato field, I vaguely saw a few figures.
Chen Miao called out to Chen Tong and felt relieved after receiving a response.
We only saw seven of them together.
Chen Dongsheng didn't scold the children, but he didn't say anything. The father and daughter also helped share some of the burden, and there were still more reds in the mountains. This thing is quite heavy.
Only Chen Tong was talking along the way, and it was actually intermittent. This day was just to collect food, otherwise I would never have been able to hold on.
"Third sister, Erdan and the others are still behind. No need to wait for them, they are not far from us."
"Don't be so late again."
"Third sister, we don't want to be late. These are the eggs and if they don't go back, I'm afraid they will take them away."
"Nothing is as important as life. If you encounter a wolf so late, you will never come back." It's impossible not to scare them. They are too courageous. If something happens, they will definitely regret it in the future.
The whole family didn't speak. In fact, they were really scared after dark and heard the howling of wolves. Even Chen Tong no longer insisted on continuing to pick.
Chen Miao sent her mother away, and after the mother and son took a bath, they lay down on the bed. She was quite calm, but Chen Tong was beaten, but Liang Caixia really hit him, beating him until he kept saying that he would never do this again.
