Chapter 17 Going to the Street

The door opened, and Mei Qiying stood outside, holding a small basket in her hand.

Seeing the door open, Mei Qiying handed in the basket in her hand across the threshold.

"Second brother, this is the egg Mother promised to give to Sanya, you can take it to nourish her body!"

She never mentioned that it was old man Mei who forced Mrs. Mei to give it. If Mrs. Mei herself, hehe... what are you thinking!

"No need, you should take it back for such a precious thing."

Mei's second child frowned, thinking that if he took the eggs now, maybe the old lady would come to make trouble again later, so he honestly refused.

"Second Brother, this is for Sanya, not for you. Since Mother gave it to you, you can follow it."

Mei Qiying has always been young and mature. Although she is only in her teens, she often lives in seclusion.Don't care about anything, don't care, don't ask.Unless Mrs. Mei and the others specifically asked, she almost always stayed in her own room, didn't talk too much, didn't meddle in other people's affairs, and acted like an invisible person all day long.

Old man Mei asked her to come here this time, otherwise she could stay in the house for ten days and a half a month without going out once, a proper ancient version of a house girl!
Mei Qiying handed over the basket, but Mei's second child refused, and no one would give way for a while.

Seeing that her father went to open the door and didn't come back for a long time, Melomei had to come over to have a look. When she came here, she saw this scene and immediately felt it was funny.

When he looked at the basket in Mei Qiying's hand again, he understood instantly.

She thought Mrs. Mei wouldn't give it, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Mei, who had always been a cock to them, would actually be willing to take out eggs today when the sun came out in the west. This kind of situation is really rare.

Melomei walked over a few steps, took the basket, and said with a smile, "Thank you, aunt."

"You're welcome!" Mei Qiying looked at Melomei's appearance, and couldn't help asking: "Sanya, is your face looking better?"

"It still hurts, but it's okay." Melomei continued to laugh

"Ugh……"

Mei Qiying moved the corner of her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't say it, and finally she could only sigh softly.

She took out a handful of copper coins from her bosom, took Melomei's hand and stuffed it all into her hand: "This is the money that my sister recently sold for embroidering handkerchiefs, take it and buy candy...don't let your grandma find out .”

Turn around and leave.

"Sister..."

When Melomei wanted to call Mei Qiying to stop, she had already gone far away, and only saw a monotonous figure from behind.

For this sister-in-law, Melomei has complicated feelings. Although they live under the same roof, they don't usually communicate much. Today, they offered to give her money, which made Melomei not know how to react for a while.

Melomei followed Mei Laoer into the house, and put the basket and a handful of copper coins on the table

Melo May: "My aunt gave it."

"Sister-in-law?" Mei Erya felt incredible.

This sister-in-law is not like the third aunt who throws stones at them and ridicules them, but she will not take the initiative to help them either.

I suddenly gave Sanya a copper plate today, could it be that I suddenly changed my sex?

"Send it back to your sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Li thought for a while, then grabbed the copper plate on the table and handed it to Mei Erya.

"Mother, what my sister gave me is mine, why do you want to send it back? Besides, my sister said that I can't let my grandma know, don't you want to trap my sister for injustice by sending it back like this?"

Melomei snatched the copper coins and counted them in her hand. There are twenty. She will have money to ride an ox cart tomorrow.

It is said that she has never touched money since she came to this world, and these twenty copper coins just made her enjoy herself.

Seeing Sanya's excitement as she took the money and counted it again and again, Mrs. Li looked at her face wrapped in a white cloth, and finally swallowed it when she wanted to keep it for her.

Melomei didn't know that she ignorantly escaped the incident of being kept as a 'lucky money'. She only felt that she was rich, and she was so happy that she wanted to jump up, although this idea was very fruitless!But she doesn't care.

I counted the eggs again, and found that there were only six. I pursed my mouth and looked unhappy again.

A few eggs, what can I do, can I, give her strength?cut!
One night passed in a blink of an eye...

Mei Luomei was pulled up from the bed by Mei Daya the next day, and when she was pulled up, she closed her eyes and yawned.

I got some copper coins last night, and I was so happy that I was thinking about what to buy on the street tomorrow?What are sold on the street?Will it be as lively as modern...

Well, I was too excited to think about it, and I couldn't hold it back, so I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, and naturally I couldn't wake up gorgeously the next day.

Mei Daya yelled a few times but didn't get up. Seeing the sky getting brighter, she was worried that she would not be able to catch up with the ox cart, so she pulled her up from the bed.

"Sanya, are you still going to the street or not? It's too late to sleep again."

"On the street?"

When Melome heard the word "going to the street", she woke up in a second, hurriedly got up and put on her clothes and shoes, and after tidying up, she realized that her cheap parents and second sister had already left the house, and only her and her were left at home. Maya.

Mei Daya and Mei Luomei hurried up the mountain with their backs on their backs to pack the mushrooms they collected yesterday while no one noticed.

"Sanya, do you feel that we have fewer mushrooms?"

Mei Daya asked while loading the mushrooms, and always felt that the mushrooms were much less than yesterday.

"Oh, it may be that they have been piled here for a long time, and the moisture in the mushrooms has escaped, so it seems to be less."

Melomei replied calmly while packing some mushrooms in her back, but her heart was extremely nervous.

"Well, it's also possible." Mei Daya thought about the pickles that she usually dried, and it was indeed a lot less after drying.

Seeing that Aya Mei wasn't suspicious, Melo Mei felt relieved.

It's so dangerous, the vest is almost unwearable!

The two got a few handfuls of wild vegetables to cover, and then rushed to the town.

"Big ya, where are you going to the street?"

The two walked to the side of the main road and were about to wait for the ox cart, when they heard someone calling suddenly, they turned around and saw that it was Aunt Wang.

"Aunt Wang, are you going to the street too?" Aunt Mei greeted Aunt Wang.

"Yeah, go and see Feng'er, he hasn't taken a shower recently, I'll send him something."

Aunt Wang approached with her burden on her shoulders, and when she saw Melomei's face, she took a deep breath, "Third girl, your face was beaten like this by that old rascal! How can you be so cruel to me? Be cruel, if I didn't go out yesterday, I would definitely have to scold her for you, this is still my granddaughter, how can I do it."

Aunt Wang held Melomei's hand, her face full of regret, she suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly untied the bag, took out an oiled paper bag from inside, opened it, and took out a chicken leg.

"Come on, Sanya, Madam will give you a chicken drumstick to eat, make up for it."

"Ma'am, you prepared this specially for Brother Du, you should give it to him to eat."

Before Mei Luomei could speak, Mei Daya had already refused for her.

She took her sister's hand and coaxed: "Sanya, after a while, sister will buy meat for you after selling her purse."

Melome "..."

Really treat her like a child!
Aunt Wang wanted to persuade her again, but when she found that the bullock cart had come, she hurriedly stuffed the chicken legs into Melomei's hands, and then quickly climbed into the bullock cart.

Melomei couldn't laugh or cry when she saw the chicken leg that suddenly appeared in her hand.It didn't seem feasible to return it, so I took out a handkerchief from my arms, wrapped the chicken legs and put them in my sleeves, and then climbed into the ox cart with the help of Mei Daya.

As soon as I got on the ox cart, I found that there were quite a lot of people inside, including a familiar face, Liu Er and his wife Zhang Meihua.

 I don't seem to have anything to say today, so I hope you guys can tell me.cry (;︵;`)
