Chapter 54 The Welfare of Crossing Women
Su Zhi watched her cheap mother pull her little daughter away in a hurry like running for her life. She looked at Shen Zi'an, and the corners of their mouths showed a smile.
The purse was not sold in the end. Manager Su was very sorry. He told Su Zhi that if he wanted to sell embroidery in the future, he would sell it to her.
The young couple went out of Xiuzhuang and got on the ox cart. They didn't seem to have anything to buy. At this time, they were hungry, so they wanted to find a place for lunch.
While passing a street, they met Li Shi. He also came to buy things and carried a lot of things in his hand. Shen Zi'an asked him to put things in the car.
"OK, I bought this cow and car well. I don't have much land at home. If I have more, I will buy one. Brother, rent the cow to me at the beginning of spring, and pay according to the ground.
Li Shi grabbed Shen Zi'an's driving position. He sat there and waved his whip. His movements were good. At first glance, he was also a driver.
"You don't have to pay. Brother Shitou, you can take it to use it. It's far to pay."
Shen Zi'an said that Li Shi was very kind to him and took care of him since he was a child. He would not care about Li Shi for a little money.
Li Shi said, "That won't work. My own brother will settle accounts. You also bought this cow in silver. If I don't want money, won't everyone else use your cow for nothing? You also said that there is not much land, but I still have that little money.
Su Zhi smiled and said, "Brother Stone, don't pay. When I passed behind your house with Zi'an in the morning, I saw a persimmon tree planted in your yard, so just give us some persimmons."
Li Shi said with a smile, "If you want to eat persimmons, you can pick them. What's the money? I went out a few days ago. I had to pick the persimmon late, and I don't know if it's delicious or not. The persimmon is soft. I don't like it. If you like it, it's all yours.
"How can that work? If you don't eat, you can change money. Let's eat your persimmon, Brother Stone. Brother Stone, you use our cattle, that's the right thing to say.
Su Zhi actually didn't want Li Shi to use cow's money, but she saw that Li Shi was not a person who took advantage of others, so she proposed to use persimmons to offset it. She really likes to eat persimmons. The persimmon is picked and eaten softly. It can also be eaten crisply, and it can be dried into persimmon cakes. At that time, it can be used as a snack in winter.
"Then that's it." Li Shi also said simply.
The three of them went to a noodle stall, which was a shed, in which the shopkeeper worked in the shed. A mat is set up with some wooden sticks in the front, and some grass is spread on it to keep out the rain. There are a few broken tables and benches below. Many people are already eating there. Although it's a little cold now, they are eating hot soup noodles. It's not cold at all. Generally, we leave after eating, and no one is frozen here.
Li Shi tied the ox cart aside, and Shen Zi helped Su Zhi out of the car. As soon as the three of them walked in, they heard someone say hello.
"Ah, isn't this the Zi'an brother? Did you accompany your daughter-in-law to the market?
Su Zhi thought that she had met someone she knew. She looked up and saw two women sitting there with two little boys, looking at them. Su Zhi saw that Shen Zi'an's expression was normal. I know that these two women are not very annoying, and Su Zhi will also give a smile to this kind of person. After all, being born in the countryside should also be sociable, otherwise others will chew your tongue behind your back, and you will have no one to help you.
"Sister-in-law of the tree root, sister-in-law Li, such a coincidence. Daughter-in-law, this is the tree root sister-in-law, sister-in-law Li. I live not far from the bridge on the west side of the river.
Su Zhi smiled and saluted gently and said, "Sister-in-law of the tree root is good, sister-in-law Li is good."
Sister-in-law Li, the tree root sister-in-law, listened to Su Zhi's soft voice and felt that the little daughter-in-law's words were really nice. At this time, Su Zhi also took off the cloth covered with her face. The hair is neatly combed, and although there are still some spots on her face, it is not eye-catching. Except for those watery little girls and daughters-in-law, none of the peasant women in the village are either spotted and black. Su Zhi is not eye-catching at all. And her eyes are shiny, her lips are red and her teeth are white, which is very attractive.
Sister-in-law Li, the sister-in-law of the tree root, couldn't help but have a good impression on Su Zhi. I heard that she was a broom star before, but at this way, where does she look like a broom star? Her smile is clearly like a lucky star. Thinking about what happened yesterday, this is a lucky Immediately, the good impression was added to another layer.
"Okay, okay, the girl seems to be really getting better. Live a good life in the future. The good life will be in the future!"
Sister-in-law Li is the one who just talked. She is slightly fat. At first glance, she likes to talk, while Shugen's sister-in-law is gentle-looking. At first glance, she doesn't like to talk but has a good temper. When she saw Su Zhi looking at herself, she smiled at Su Zhi. There was a little boy sitting next to her, who was white and clean, while the little boy sitting next to Sister-in-law Li called Li Shi and Shen Zi'an, and now they are looking at Su Zhi.
"Little lock, Huzi, this is your fourth uncle Shen's bride. Call the fourth aunt quickly."
The tree root sister-in-law patted the two children and said that the two children immediately shouted happily, and Su Zhi also answered with a smile.
Sister-in-law Li said, "Let's talk as much as we can. Sit down quickly. The table is still empty. Let's talk while eating."
With that, Huzi called her to sit down, and the tree root sister-in-law also asked Xiao Suo to sit on a bench with her.
Su Zhi sat down with a smile and wanted to see that the villagers didn't care so much about the name of their own broom star. It seemed that yesterday's action had an effect. It was funny in his heart. He thought that the ancients were like this. They decided a person's good life and bad fate according to a good thing or a bad After a while, the black thing of the previous second can be said as white in the next second, as if it had never been said that it was black before...
Li Shi ordered a bowl of shredded pork noodles, which is pork. At this time, beef is rarely sold, mutton is also rare, and pork is the most common. A bowl of noodles is topped with a few thin slices of meat, plus green and white chopped green onions, which is steaming with oil stars. A large bowl of noodle soup is really appetizing. Shen Zi'an also ordered two bowls.
Su Zhi saw that the noodles here were noodles, not the kind of thin noodles, which made people feel more appetizing. She picked up her chopsticks and was about to eat. When she saw the two children looking at her bowl, she found that they were eating plain noodles. She wanted to give them a meal, but there was not much meat, and if she was given it to them, she was a little worried that the child's mother would be embarrassed. In a blink of an eye, she looked at the cake on the stall next to her and asked Shen Zi'an to buy it.
Shen Zi'an bought seven cakes and gave them one to each person. The tree root sister-in-law and sister-in-law Li repeatedly gave in. Su Zhi handed them to the two children and said, "Eat the two sisters-in-law, just eat. Don't be polite. If I go to my sister-in-law'
When Huzi saw that Su Zhi had sent the cake to his hand, he took it over, bit it into his mouth, and ate it very happily. Xiao Suo saw that Huzi had eaten, and when he saw that his mother did not stop him, he also took it over, said thank you to the fourth aunt, and then began to eat.
When Li's sister-in-law and Shugen's sister-in-law saw that the children were eating well, they didn't give in. People in the countryside were like this. The children picked it up directly, and the adults politely pushed them a few times. If they didn't answer, it would make people unhappy.
"Girl, then we're welcome. Your business is at a loss. The cake we make at home is not as delicious as this cake. Even if you make white noodles, you can't make such a delicious cake. If you go to my house, you have to smell it. If you don't, you can only eat corn cakes.
Sister-in-law Li said with a smile that she also likes to eat the cakes sold outside, but a cake costs a penny, and she is still a little reluctant to give up. She also saw that Su Zhi saw that the two children were greedy, so she went to buy cakes and bought cakes for them. This little daughter-in-law is not only eye-sighted, but also kind-hearted. How can such a person be a broom star? It seems that the old Shen family was really blind this time and was cheated by the old Taoist priest!
Su Zhi smiled and said, "For our farmers, as long as it's food, anything is fine. I don't choose. I think my sister-in-law's cooking must be delicious, and even the corn cakes can be delicious. I will definitely go to eat it again."
Shugen's sister-in-law also said, "Then go to my house."
Su Zhi talked and laughed with two women, and soon became one. She didn't talk much. She kept leading the two women to say it. She heard a lot of things in the village, and made people feel that she listened to it when she should say it, and the two women liked it. Even the two children kept fighting with each other. Su Zhi spoke, hoping that Su Zhi could watch them and say a few words to them. It can be said that Su Zhi's affinity was exerted here when she was in charge of affairs.
Su Zhijue's cake is not very delicious. Some seasonings are added to it, which are probably salt, green onion and garlic, and so on. It doesn't even taste like five-spice powder, let alone sesame sauce. She has been listening to them say that this is the most delicious cake. She didn't mention the pancake at all. She thought that when she went into the mountain with Shen Zi'an, they even regarded it as a weed. She thought that there would be no five-spice powder in this era, right? Isn't the thirteen incense even more gone?
Su Zhi thought that in the novel, the heroine made a fortune by selling pigs, pine eggs, hot pot, thirteen fragrances and so on. She thought that this kind of good thing would not fall on herself, right?
Su Zhi wanted to talk slowly. If it was really like that, it would be better. She thought that she would probably not have it. This is the welfare of time-travelling women. Business opportunities are everywhere!
After several people finished their meal, Shugen's sister-in-law and Li's sister-in-law left with their children. There were a lot of things on the ox cart, and they couldn't sit down so many people. Su Zhi didn't invite her, and the two women also said goodbye in a friendly way.
Li Shi said that he wanted to buy some more pork. Shen Zi'an wanted to buy some meat for his daughter-in-law to change her taste. Of course, Su Zhi also agreed. As soon as she thought of the pig going into the water, she could go to see it immediately. It's really a good thing.
Su Zhi doesn't want to make a fortune by selling pigs in the water, but she is just curious about whether pigs in this era are really like garbage as written in the novel. ( To be continued) Q
