Chapter 232

After simply eating breakfast, Gu Jiujiu went back to the room and found that Shen Kuo was still there, so he couldn't help asking, "Don't you need to go to the yamen today?"

"Go." Shen Kuo looked at Gu Jiujiu and smiled, "However, when I came back last night, the county magistrate said that there was nothing to do in the yamen today, so he let us go after noon." After finishing speaking, Shen Kuo Seemingly thinking of something, he touched more than thirty ingots of broken silver from his bosom and gave it to Gu Jiujiu, "Xiao Jiu, this is the money I got as an accountant, you keep it."

Gu Jiujiu accepted the money with a smile, then looked at Shen Kuo and said, "I'm going to the market later, since you don't have to go to the yamen, let's go together."

"Okay." Shen Kuo looked at Gu Jiujiu dotingly, and agreed without thinking.

Yan Shi was drying cattle grass in the yard, Gu Jiujiu led the ox cart, told Yan Shi, and then drove the ox cart to the market with Shen Kuo.

Because of Shen Kuo, Gu Jiujiu doesn't have to drive the ox cart by herself, she just needs to sit on it.

When the bullock cart came to the entrance of the village, Gu Jiujiu saw Aunt Zhang was carrying a vegetable basket and seemed to be going to the market, so she looked at her and asked, "Auntie, where are you going?"

"I'm going to the market." As she said that, Aunt Zhang looked at Gu Jiujiu with a smile and said, "My eldest daughter-in-law is about to give birth in about two months, so I plan to go to the market to buy some The old hen went back and stewed it for her to eat."

"Ma'am, my husband and I are also going to the market, so you can go to the market in our bullock cart." After hearing what Aunt Zhang said, Gu Jiujiu asked her to get in the car too.

"Really?" Aunt Zhang got into the car with a vegetable basket when she saw Gu Jiujiu saying that.

Shen Kuo waited until Aunt Zhang was seated before continuing to drive the ox cart towards the market.

"Ma'am, don't your family have an ox cart? Why don't you go to the market in an ox cart?" Gu Jiujiu looked at Aunt Zhang and asked with a smile.

"I'm getting old, and it's hard to drive an ox cart. My old man is helping the old Zhu's house to build a house, so it's not easy for him to drive me there. I just plan to go to the village to take an ox cart. It's not expensive anyway. It's only two copper coins at a time." After finishing speaking, Aunt Zhang looked at Gu Jiujiu with a chuckle, "By the way, Miss Yan, what are you driving the bullock cart to the market to buy?"

"Buy pig's trotters." Aunt Zhang asked, Gu Jiujiu didn't hide anything, and told her the truth.

"Miss Yan's family, why did you buy it?" Aunt Zhang frowned and looked at Gu Jiujiu, "This pig's trotter is full of bones, and there is no meat. It won't get any meaty taste if you eat it. If you want to buy pig's trotters, you might as well buy pig thighs, which have a lot of meat on them, and the meat on pig thighs is still lean meat. You can buy them, stew them, or fry them. "

Gu Jiujiu knew that Aunt Zhang said this out of good intentions, so she smiled and looked at Aunt Zhang and explained: "Auntie, although there is no meat in the pig's trotters, stewed pig's trotters are very nourishing for the body. Your daughter-in-law is pregnant, ma'am, you can also sell a few pig's trotters and stew them for her."

When Mrs. Zhang heard that Gu Jiujiu said that the pig's trotters were eaten to nourish the body, a hint of surprise flashed across her face. However, considering Gu Jiujiu's excellent medical skills, since she said that the pig's trotters are a good thing to nourish the body, then it should be .Thinking of this, she looked at Gu Jiujiu with a smile and said, "Alright, I'll go to the market to buy old hens later, and I'll also go to the pork shop to buy a few pig's trotters for my eldest daughter-in-law to stew for her." She eats."
