Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

Chapter 59
"Mom, why are you going?"

Lin He thought for a while: "I should go to the market, either to buy oil or fat."

Other things can be bought at any time, only this pork, you really have to go early.

"That's it."

In the early morning at the end of March, it was still a little cold, and the wonton stalls were set up on the side of the road, and most of the residents hadn't gone out for activities.

However, the hot soup brought by the proprietress made people feel warm from the bottom of their hearts.

Lin He hugged An'er and changed direction to block the wind.

Li Yu and Li Hao warmed their hands with hot soup, and whispered together.

Lin He occasionally heard one or two words floating in the wind, such as candy, buy, etc., but didn't pay much attention to it.

The wontons came quickly.

"The other two are my gifts for you. I will bring them to you after cooking for a while."

The proprietress looked at Lin He kindly with a smile: "Is it convenient, Ma'am, how about I help you hold the baby and you eat first?"

This child was raised fat and white, and it was gratifying to look at.

It can be seen that this little girl is the stepmother of several children, and being able to treat other people's children well shows that she is kind-hearted, and the proprietress is naturally willing to get close to her.

Of course, the most important thing is that when this little lady came last time, she was skinny, as if she was going to die at any moment.

It was because one of the two was so thin that only a handful of bones remained, the other was indifferent, and there was a scary scar on his face, so she still remembered it fresh.

But looking at it today, the man is not as cold as before, and the little lady looks a little fatter than before.

The proprietress originally had good intentions and was not busy at the moment. Seeing that Lin He was so thin and had to hold such a chubby child, she wanted to give her a hand to hug her.

But obviously, Lin He misunderstood, and didn't even think about this at all. When the proprietress stretched out her hand, she avoided it all at once.

After avoiding it, I found that the proprietress looked at her in confusion, maybe it was a little strange, why did she react so much.

Lin He also bit the bullet and explained: "It's okay, I can do it myself, and I often eat like this at home."

She regarded the proprietress as a human trafficker just now, and then she remembered that it must not be a day or two for her to set up a stall here. If it was a human trafficker, she would have been discovered and arrested long ago.

However, even if he knew that the child was not a bad person, Lin He couldn't do it if he gave the child to a stranger.

Fortunately, the proprietress didn't think too much about it: "That's fine, you guys eat slowly."

Just at this time, the boss who cooked the wontons called her over, and the lady boss left.

Lin He breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly greeted the two children for dinner.

Li Changhui's was also cooked, and they were put aside. The proprietress quickly brought the two that were cooked for Li An separately, but they were too hot, so let them cool down before feeding them to the children.

After eating a few wontons, Li Changhui came back with a roll of lotus leaf buns, which were only for selling pork.

In this season, there are no fresh big lotus leaves. These lotus leaves are all dried. They should have been picked last year and dried in the sun. When you want to use them, soak them in water. The wrapped meat is not only clean, but also oil-proof and waterproof.

When Li Changhui came back, he hugged Li An, and talked to Lin He while eating wontons.

"I didn't encounter suet today, I only bought a few catties of fat meat, and I will go to my aunt's house later, and I have to boil the oil first."

"It's okay, it's still early anyway, should we buy some ribs or something, I'll be having dinner at my aunt's house at noon today."

"No, the pheasants and hares are all in the ox cart, enough for lunch."

Yesterday my uncle said that my aunt's family is more difficult, and he often helps this younger sister. Although he is not a mother, he has the same father after all, and there is only this younger sister. Of course, he can help as much as he can.

Now that the family is in trouble, the daily food and clothing costs are naturally a little short. Li Changhui is officially going to visit his aunt today, so of course he has to bring something with him.

However, the weather is also hot, and the meat can't be kept for too long. One rabbit and two pheasants are enough for today's food. Buy some other things and send them over together.

After Lin He finished eating, he fed Li An little by little. The little guy tasted the taste of wontons and waved his hands excitedly. It seemed that he really liked the taste.

However, Lin He still didn't dare to give him wonton fillings. Fortunately, he ate up the two wonton wrappers, which was a lot. After all, Li An was only that big.

During the period, the two also discussed what to buy later.

After leaving the wonton stall, the two went directly to the cloth shop last time.

The store manager also recognizes them, they are big customers, and they bought a lot of ready-made clothes last time.

Knowing that the two of them were going to buy more cloth today, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then enthusiastically recommended it to them.

I chose the commonly used gray and black fabrics, one each, and I also bought a blue one suitable for women.

If they want to buy other things, they put them in the store first, and when they are ready to leave later, they can ask the shop assistant to deliver them to the ox cart.

Then I went to buy some pastries and brown sugar. The pastries are for the children of my aunt's family, and brown sugar is also a very high standard for gifts in the village.

I don't know if my aunt's house has ginger liquor, which is an important material to remove the fishy smell, so I went to the market to buy a catty of ginger and made half a catty of white wine.

They were about to leave, but they passed by a roast goose restaurant. Lin He and the two children took a deep breath together.

Really fragrant!

So Li Changhui waved his hand and wrapped another whole roast goose.

When they had bought enough things, the few people also had big bags and small bags, so they went to the cloth village and told Xiao Er to send the things outside the town.

I thought I didn't buy much, but it turned out that there were quite a lot of things piled up together.

From Yonghe Town to Changping Village, they took another road. Li Changhui didn't plan to go back to his hometown, An Village, and went directly to Changping Village.

After walking for a while, he suddenly looked sideways at Lin He who was sitting beside him: "What are you curious about?"

The little cook's gaze was so obvious that Li Changhui couldn't ignore it.

After being caught, Lin He blinked and smiled slightly: "No, I just took a look."

Li Changhui turned back and continued to drive the carriage. After thinking about it, he explained: "Although I haven't been home for a long time, and I don't remember many of the nearby roads clearly, some of them still have a little impression."

This is to explain that yesterday I didn't know the way from Xiang'an Village to Changping Village, but now I can recognize the way from Yonghe Town to Changping Village.

Lin He: "Oh."

It seemed to be the answer. As for whether to believe it or not, only Lin He knew in his heart.

Li Changhui also noticed it, and sighed slightly in his heart.

This little cook is smarter than he thought.

But both of them were tacit, no matter what they were thinking, they didn't say it out.

There was even a tacit understanding, and there was no temptation.
