Chapter 276 Beggar

Chapter 276 Beggar

Author: 久l久

"Chu Man had a miscarriage?"

How long had that woman been married and she got pregnant?

Although Ying Bao found it incredible, she followed Chu Chu to her home.

As soon as they entered the door, they saw Chen Feng standing outside the door with a sullen face, Chu Man lying on a bamboo bed, and Fourth Aunt Wu checking on her.

"Is it true that she had a miscarriage?" Fourth Aunt Wu said to Chen Fengshi, "There's nothing else to do. Just let her go back and lie down for two days to recuperate."

Chen Fengshi glared at Chu Man with a look of boredom on her face and said, "Don't you know that I am pregnant? My fourth aunt said that nothing will happen, so she didn't want to get up and go home!"

Chu Man didn't have any feelings about whether he was sliding or not, but he remembered that Chen was bumping into him, and he couldn't help but cry loudly: "That little bitch bumped into him! Wuwuwuwu! If I don't say anything about her, she will."

Come to blame him! We are all here to bully him...wuwuwuwu...he begs to go home..."

Chen Feng rolled her eyes and said, "I can go back if I want, no one will stop me!"

After saying that, he turned around and left the house to find Chen Zhao.

Chu Chu hugged her little girl, glanced at Chu Man, and whispered to Yingbao: "Just now, cousin Chu Man came to his house and said she had a severe stomachache and that she was bleeding, so he went to call Granny Chen.

He called Granny Wu again, and... called me again..."

Ying Bao said nonchalantly: "It's okay, he has already eaten anyway."

She stretched her head over to look at her little girl, teased her, and asked, "Have you chosen a name?"

Chu Chu smiled: "That's not good. My husband said that he would not give her a name until she is one year old. Now she will be called Niu Niu."

···

Three months after Jiang Cheng's wedding, the bride returned home, and the entire Jiang family went to the county town again to meet with their enemies, hoping to meet relatives from the other side, such as uncles and uncles from both sides.

As long as the men represent the matter, the women will stay at home to prepare New Year's food.

Yingbao and Jiang Quan also followed, not only to have a kiss, but to prepare to close the business.

On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, as the saying goes, pigs are slaughtered to cut new year's meat. The county market is bustling with people, and various stalls occupy both sides of the road.

Jiang Quan and his little cousin visited those stalls and bought some interesting gadgets when they saw them.

The price of those things is not high, ranging from a few cents to more than a dozen cents, so it is most suitable to save them for making turntables.

Ying Bao was thinking about the flowers, melons, fruits, etc. in the cave, and wanted to take them out, but did he intentionally miss Jiang Quan.

She was carrying a small bamboo basket on her back. The bamboo basket had a lid, so she asked herself to walk around alone so that she could put things in the basket and take it back.

At that time, Jiang Quan saw another stall selling small porcelain dolls and squatted down to pick some, planning to buy more to take back.

That thing only costs thirty-five cents a piece, and it won't change color or rot, and will fade no matter how long it is left, so he decided to buy more.

Yingbao spotted the gap, quietly stepped back a few steps, and slipped behind a shop that bought lanterns. There was a high wall behind it and no pedestrians passed by.

He took the basket away from his body, then put his legs into the basket, and like a magic trick, he took out some bananas and melons from the cave and put them into the basket.

Seeing that the basket was almost full, I took out a lot of flowers and put them on my head.

Like wood dandelion, it is also called gardenia, peony, chrysanthemum, etc.

After putting the things away, Yingbao found that she couldn't carry the basket anymore.

When she was at a loss, a child came out from the lantern stand and stood in front of her.

"Yingbao, what am I doing?" The person who came was Jintong, Jiang Cheng's brother-in-law and Qiu Rong's seven-year-old brother.

Ying Bao: "I didn't do anything, why am I alone?" She looked around and saw no one else.

The golden boy wiped his nose and said, "He is alone." He glanced at the basket, blinked, and said in surprise, "It's so beautiful. Should I give it to his eldest sister?"

Some time ago, Jiang Cheng sent a lot of betrothal gifts, including jewelry and flowers on his head. The golden boy thought that these beautiful flowers should also be given to his eldest sister.

Yingbao: "Those are for business purposes." Don't give them away.

I was also afraid that the little kid would go back and learn nonsense, so I picked a few wood dandelions and two peonies and gave them to him: "Take them back to my eldest sister."

But the golden boy did not ask for it: "If he doesn't come home now, I will give it to her myself."

There were many guests at home, and his parents and eldest sister were entertaining the guests. He took the opportunity to sneak out and play for a while, not wanting to go back at that time.

Yingbao put the peonies back and stuffed him with a big peacock tree and two wood dandelions and asked him to put them in his pocket. Then he dragged the basket on his back and went out, standing on the roadside and calling his second cousin.

Jiang Quan was only three feet away when he heard his little cousin calling him and hurried over: "Where have I been?"

Ying Bao pointed to the basket on his back, "I bought a lot of new things, and he can't carry them anymore."

Jiang Quan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth when he saw the flowers, pods and other things in the basket: "Where did you buy them? The pods are bigger than ours."

It was the first time for him to see such a big and red Dapingji. He was so amazed that he picked one up and smelled it. The fragrance of the pingji was astounding to his nostrils.

"How much does one cost?" For such a large square, should we sell it by the piece? If it is a small square, we can buy more and resell them.

Yingbao thought for a while and said: "Fifty cents a piece." A pound weighs a pound, so at fifty cents it should be a pound.

"Bu bu bu bu eel." But if you resell it, you won't make much money.

Jiang Quan picked up the backpack and felt it was very heavy.

"Let's send those things back first, and then we can go shopping later."

He also bought a lot of things and wanted to take them back.

Ying Bao nodded, turned to look at the golden boy, and found that he was gone.

That kid was so elusive that he scared her just now.

The brother and sister put their things home and prepared to go to the market again.

Xiao Hei barked at them and followed them, wagging his tail.

When Ying Bao saw that it was as tall as a wolfdog, she rolled her eyes and went back to find a robe to put on it.

If you can't carry it yourself, you can let Xiao Hei carry it, so you can make the best use of everything.

Jiang Quan was afraid that his big dog would hurt others, so he tied a leash to it, and then led Xiao Hei outside.

Halfway through the walk, I suddenly saw children fighting not far away. When I got closer, I saw that it was a golden boy who was tearing up pottery with two children about his own age.

Ying Bao shouted and rushed over, pushed a child away, and pulled the golden boy over.

There were several scratches on the golden boy's face. He was pointing at the two children with a lot of snot and tears and crying: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...They are robbing him!"

When Ying Bao heard that it was a big deal, she chased the two children in a few steps, punched them and begged them to be beaten.

The fist is raised high but cannot be punched away.

A dirty child of a few years old was holding half of the pings that the golden boy had chewed. He was huddled at the east wall and munching hard. From time to time, he would bring it to the mouth of another child so that he could also take a bite.

Is that a beggar?

Yingbao was curious as to why the two children did not run away after they robbed Pingchang. Instead, they squatted at the east wall to eat, so they looked around.

She found a person lying on the east side of the wall. This person's eyes were closed, and his body was covered with a tattered linen cloth. He was motionless.

No wonder the two children didn't run away. This person was probably a relative of theirs.

Yingbao asked the two children, "Hey! Where do we come from?"

The resident beggars in the county rarely sleep on the east side of the wall in such weather. Most of them will find a ruined temple or a bridge to stay, otherwise they will freeze to death.
