Chapter 9 Going to the Market
He said he wanted to go to the market, so she went to tell Dad about it.

Song Jingyun felt warm in his heart.

Of course, Jiang Youcheng and Liu Shi had no objection to the fact that the two children were going to the market.

This time we made a lot of wattle baskets, and Jiang Youcheng couldn't finish them all by himself, so he had to carry the fish with him, and the fish was forked by Song Jingyun. He took the two children to the market to watch the excitement, and bought some snacks by the way. It's good to eat.

So, that afternoon, Jiang Youcheng and Liu Shi hurriedly weaved the Vitex twigs into baskets and baskets.

When he woke up the next morning and had breakfast early, Jiang Youcheng took Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun out with a lot of things on their backs.

From Jiangjia Village to Shanglin Town, it takes an hour to walk. If you take a car, the time will be halved.

However, it costs one penny per person to ride an ox cart, and so many things also take up space, and an extra two penny is charged.

This trip will cost you five cents.

Jiang Youcheng was a little distressed, but thinking about his daughter who had just recovered from illness, and his little son-in-law who looked thin and weak, he gritted his teeth, stopped Jiang San's ox cart from the same village, and got on it.

No matter how hard it is, you can't suffer children.

Jiang San was about the same age as Jiang Youcheng, and the two had grown up together, but Jiang San was not young, so Jiang Youcheng had to call him uncle.

Seeing Jiang Youcheng moving things into the car, Jiang San grinned and joked.

"You kid is very stingy on weekdays. The hemp rope tying the basket is too tight for your shoulders, and you are not willing to go back to the car. This time, it's the sun coming out from the west."

"Third Uncle, don't make fun of me. The sun still comes out from the east. There are so many things today." Jiang Youcheng laughed.

Where there are too many things, it is obviously because there are too many people, who are not willing to bear the hardships of their own daughter and son-in-law.

This Jiang Youcheng.

Jiang San curled his lips, and took back the five Wen that Jiang Youcheng gave him, "Well, today someone asked me to bring a lot of things to the market, and people can't sit anymore, you wait a while On the way, help me to warn some things not to fall, and it will also be my hard work for you."

Jiang Youcheng was not far from Jiang San, so he knew his intentions, so he didn't refuse, he just accepted, "That's it."

After the things were packed and tied firmly with thick hemp rope, Jiang San flicked his whip.

The bullock cart swayed forward.

In April, when it is neither hot nor cold, the spring breeze is blowing all the way, seeing the green crops on both sides of the road and listening to the birds chirping, it is very pleasant.

Jiang Mixia felt very comfortable, her eyes narrowed into a thin slit.

Song Jingyun was a little excited. Although he kept silent all the way because he was afraid of being surprised, his eyes kept turning, looking to the left, to the right, and to the back...

"Mom, that man keeps looking at me, I'm so scared."

There is also an ox cart on the right rear side. The cart is full of people, including women and children. They go to the town together to buy soy sauce, vinegar, needlework and cloth.

One of the four or five-year-old girls, who was the closest to Song Jingyun, slid under her mother's arms in horror.

The woman patted her daughter's back lightly, comforted her in a low voice, and then gave Song Jingyun a hard look.

Song Jingyun naturally sensed the other party's hostility, but he didn't understand what he did wrong, so he just looked at Jiang Mixia inexplicably.

There was grievance in his eyes.

"It's rude to stare at other people all the time, especially if that person belongs to a girl's family, it's even more inappropriate. It's normal to treat you as a bad person." Jiang Mixia reminded.

"Oh." Song Jingyun just lowered his head, looked at the dust that was raised when the axle ran over the ground, and even twisted his sleeves tangledly.

Just now, he was really not a little girl looking at people.

The main reason is that the little girl is holding a piece of pancake in her hand, looking golden and golden.

The wild vegetable pancakes eaten at home are all dark, not as good-looking as this one.

And when the little girl bit the pancakes, there was a clicking sound, and the food was still delicious and sweet.

That pancake must be delicious...

Jiang Mixia didn't know what Song Jingyun was thinking, so she just reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

The bullock cart went all the way to West Street in the town.

There is a market every fifth and tenth in the town, and now it is the fifth day of the lunar new year.

Because there was a drizzle on the [-]th day of last month, although it was not heavy, it continued for a whole day, so that the market was not successful that day, so today's market was extremely lively.

The market is placed on the most central street in the town, starting from the crossroads and divided into east and west streets.

Most of the East Street sells cloth, food, gadgets, etc., while the West Street sells cattle, sheep, livestock, pots and pans, live chickens and ducks, and other livestock and farm implements.

What Jiang Mixia and the others brought were twig baskets and fish, so they naturally put the stall in an open space on West Street.

Jiang Youcheng used to come here often to set up a stall to sell baskets, and he knew many people here.

"This is your daughter and son?"

"Where is it, daughter and daughter-in-law?"

"I'm used to seeing you selling baskets, but now you're selling fish. Did you switch to fishing?"

"The first fork in the river, exchange for some soy sauce and vinegar money."

"Everyone else is fishing, and the fish are all alive. You are all dead fish, so what do you want? Why don't you give me the cheaper one."

"You can't get enough of this cheap fish. I have cleaned up the fish and put salt on it. I have to ask you for salt money to cook..."

After exchanging pleasantries and jokes, the sun rose, and the market gradually became more crowded, and everyone was busy with their own business.

Exchange money when you meet a suitable buyer, and exchange items when you meet what you want.

The wattle baskets that Jiang Youcheng brought were divided into different sizes, the big one was twelve coins, and the small one was eight coins. The wattle baskets were all about the same size.

Vitex baskets, twig baskets are basic items that every household needs. In addition, Jiang Youcheng has been going to the market for many years in the town. The baskets he weaves are durable and honest. Many people have an impression of him.

And the impression is quite good.

There were quite a few people who came to see the Vitex Baskets and Vitex Baskets, one after another, four were sold, and three remained.

But the fish was not selling fast. After such a long time, only two crucian carps were sold, and they were two small crucian carp. The buyer said that he would buy them back and make soup for his confinement daughter-in-law.

After that, no one cares.

Rao Jiang Mixia yelled here for a while, but it was of no avail.

Even Song Jingyun was a little downcast.

If you don’t sell the fish, you don’t have money, and if you don’t have money, you can’t buy pork. If you can’t buy pork, you can’t eat pork belly, which is delicious no matter what you eat…

"It's okay, even if the fish can't be sold, take it back and eat it slowly, and today my father will cut the meat for you." Jiang Youcheng said to comfort his daughter and son-in-law.

The cow can't press its head if it doesn't drink water, and there's nothing it can do if the fish can't be sold, so Jiang Mixia can only sigh, "Okay."

Seeing this, an uncle selling live chickens laughed, "Why don't you go to Fuyun Restaurant and try it? The crispy fish and vinegar fish are the most delicious. After all, it is a restaurant. Since it sells fish and vegetables, I guess I also want to buy fish, so it’s just right where you send the fish.”
