After death, I became the cannon fodder of the three protagonists

Chapter 16

Su Mo took the three children, walked through the streets and alleys, and came to a remote corner.

The outside of the shop is filled with all kinds of furniture, as well as bamboo baskets and the like.

Su Mo immediately fell in love with a low bamboo bed. It was hot in summer, and it was cool to lie on the bamboo bed.

Just asking about the price, it costs one or two taels of silver. Not only that, but the cheapest wooden bed also costs five taels of silver. Su Mo was speechless. She only had one or two taels of silver left.

In desperation, Su Mo had no choice but to leave with the three children. Gu Pingan followed behind with his things in his arms, and asked with some doubts: "Mother, why did you buy a bed?"

It's the end of the meeting, and at the hottest time of the day, Su Mo's backpack is also heavy, let alone Gu Xingnian, who is sweating profusely.

But after hearing Gu Ping'an's question, she still explained patiently.

"Girls and boys have different seats at eight years old, you and Jinnian have grown up, and you can no longer sleep in the same room with your sister.

Mother is thinking about buying you a bed so that you can sleep in the east room, and Xing Nian will sleep with me. "

Gu Ping'an seemed to understand but half understood.

Gu Jinnian glanced at Gu Xingnian, his eyes dimmed, but he still didn't speak.

The group soon arrived at the place where the ox cart was parked, and Wang Taoqing was there, which surprised Su Mo a little.

Wang Taoqing was here specially to keep watch. When she went back in the morning, she found that Su Mo and the others were not there. Recalling the troubles that happened in Gu's family years ago, she kept a close eye on her. After eating, she came again in a bullock cart into the county.

Not long ago, she saw Su Mo's family of four walking towards her from a distance. She wanted to go there, but she was afraid that Su Mo would think she was too attentive. , and exchanged words with Chen Yuanhai.

Chen Yuanhai scratched his head, somewhat puzzled why his sister-in-law told him not to say that she was from the county where she had just come to build a bullock cart, but he still listened to her sister-in-law.

"Look at this sweaty man, give me the Xingnian, sit down and rest."

Su Mo and the others had already arrived at the side of the bullock cart, Wang Taoqing quickly stood up with a smile, and stretched out his hand to help Gu Xingnian.

Su Mo was still a little uncomfortable with such enthusiasm, but everyone in Luoshan Village knew that Chen Cihai and his wife were warm-hearted, so Su Mo didn't think much of it, and returned a thankful smile.

"Thank you sister-in-law."

She put the basket aside, carried Gu Pingan and Gu Jinnian into the ox cart, and then sat on it herself.

The shed covered the scorching sun, and the breeze blew by, bringing a little bit of coolness. Su Mo took a long breath.

The bullock cart will not go back until the six quarters of Shen time. Not far from the shed, there is this sundial. Su Mo glanced at it, and the shadow of the sundial falls between the end time and Shen time.

In other words, he had to wait for six quarters of an hour, and it was awkward to sit. Su Mo glanced at the nearby shops, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't bought acacia liquid.

She quickly stood up, and Wang Taoqing who was at the side asked, "What's wrong?"

"I still need to buy some things, Mrs. Wang, can I trouble you to take care of the next three children?"

The sun is too hot, so take it with you, for fear of getting your child heatstroke.

Wang Taoqing heard Su Mo's words clearly, and nodded with a smile: "It's a big deal, don't worry."

Su Mo thanked with a smile, and told the three children to stay here obediently and not to wander around, and then left.

The soap locust liquid can be used to wash clothes, bathe, and wash hair.

It is considered a daily necessities, so every grocery store sells it, and the price is the same, so Su Mo picked a nearby store and bought a large jar.

Clouds suddenly accumulated in the sky, blocking the scorching sun. Su Mo walked towards the bullock cart with the pot in his arms. When he passed by a pastry shop, his footsteps stopped...

……

"Mother~"

Gu Xingnian stood up, waved towards Su Mo who was walking slowly, his eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.

Su Mo smiled back, walked over, put down the jar, and put the pastries into the basket.

There was really no one in the afternoon, and no one came until [-]:[-] a.m. Chen Yuanhai thought that there should be no one, so he helped Su Mo put everything into the ox cart.

Just as he was about to leave with a whip, someone ran over from the street: "Wait for us..."

Chen Yuanhai turned his head and saw that it was Mrs. Wang and her daughter Wang Yingying from the village. He stopped quickly and waited for the two to come.

When Mrs. Wang saw the car stopped, she breathed a sigh of relief, and took her daughter's hand, and the two of them actually slowed down.

She leisurely walked over to the bullock cart, and Mrs. Wang swept the bullock cart with her inverted triangular eyes, not hiding the disgust on her face at all.

The smile on Wang Taoqing's face froze, and she called out with some reluctance: "Aunt."

Mrs. Wang raised her chin and let out a "hmm".

"Taoqing, it's not my aunt who said you, this business is also rewarding, how can anyone just let anyone ride in our bullock cart!"

After all, she looked at Su Mo with contempt, as if she was looking at some plague god.

Wang Yingying on the side didn't hide the contempt in her eyes at all, her delicate face was a bit ferocious, and when she noticed that Su Mo was looking at her, she gave her a vicious stare.

Su Mo was confused, and after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly realized.

This is an old thing.

Gu Dalang has a good appearance, unlike other men in Luoshan Village, he is tall and strong, and he is the object that many girls in the village want to marry.

This Wang Yingying is also one of them.

Her family used to find a matchmaker, and went to Gu's house to talk about it several times, but in the end they were cut off by the original body.

Zhuyu was in the front, and Wang Yingying didn't care about the marriage that Wang Yingying said later. As a result, she is now in her twenties and hasn't married yet.

Mrs. Wang is also aggressive, ever since Gu Dalang's death, she often slandered Yuan in front of the villagers.

Between the two, so enmity.

Wang Taoqing's face was a little ugly, Mrs. Wang relied on being her aunt, and she never gave money for riding a bullock cart on weekdays, but now she made such an ugly statement.

But since she couldn't talk back, her father gave birth to her, but her uncle's family had three other sons besides Wang Yingying, and her father and mother wanted to adopt one of them under their name. Build a good relationship.

But they didn't even think about it, if the aunt was willing, she would have adopted her cousins ​​long before they could remember, and it wouldn't be possible for the three cousins ​​to get married soon.

She twitched the corners of her mouth, glanced at the sundial, and changed the subject: "Auntie took Yingying to look at it?
I heard my mother said that the man's family opened a shop, and after getting married, he will enjoy a happy life in the future. "

It's okay if you don't say anything, but when you say it, Mrs. Wang's face turned black like the bottom of a pot, and Wang Yingying's eyes turned red.

If Wang Taoqing still can't see it, it's useless, she smiled shyly, and moved to the side.

"Well, Auntie and Yingying come up quickly."

Mrs. Wang sat on it with a sullen face. She was already fat, and once she sat down, there was no room for the bullock cart.

Wang Yingying's eyes became even redder. When she thought that her good marriage was intercepted by Su Mo, she was still unmarried until now, and she was humiliated today, and she panicked.

She looked at Su Mo viciously, pointed at the things on the bullock cart, and opened her mouth to curse:

"This bullock cart is for people, not for goods. Do you want to take so many things to occupy the space?"
