"boss--"

Su Kefang's face was slightly embarrassed, and she felt like she was caught in the corner, although she didn't mean it.

"Something happened at home, and the girl laughed." The boss also felt embarrassed, paused, and said, "Girl, it's getting late, let's deliver the goods now."

"Alright." Su Kefang said as he untied the cloth bag on his shoulders and handed it to the boss: "Boss, I brought a total of 23 hairpins here. Take a look."

Since she was the one who brought up the business first, there is no reason to backtrack, so let's offer him the goods for the time being.

"My surname is Zhao, and my name is Zhao Jingcai. You can call me Uncle Zhao if you don't mind." Perhaps because Su Kefang didn't talk too much about his wife, Yue Jingcai treated her much more kindly.

"Uncle Zhao, you can call me Xiaofang." It was just a title, Su Kefang didn't care much, and called out kindly.

Zhao Jingcai is about 34 and [-] years old, so it is not too much to call him "Uncle", but for safety's sake, Su Kefang did not tell him his full name.

Zhao Jingcai nodded and opened the cloth bag.

Although he was mentally prepared that the hairpins in the cloth bag were not bad, when he saw more than two dozen beautifully carved wooden hairpins in the cloth bag, Zhao Jingcai couldn't help shouting in surprise and joy : "Xiao Fang, the purchase price of eight cents you gave me is really worth it!"

Zhao Jingcai counted them, 23 were correct.

"Xiao Fang, come in and have a cup of tea, I'll ask my wife to take the money." Zhao Jingcai greeted Su Kefang into the room with a smile on his face, much more cordial than when he was on the street.

Su Kefang followed him into the living room, and saw a woman about 20 years old in the room had already poured the tea.

From her slightly red and swollen eyes, one could guess that this was the woman who was crying in the room just now——Zhao Jingcai's daughter-in-law.

When the woman saw Su Kefang, she blushed and smiled at her, obviously she was ashamed of her gaffe just now.

As a modern person, Su Kefang had never seen any kind of beauties before, but he was still slightly amazed by the gorgeous facial features of the woman in front of him.

That's right, it's gorgeous, not beautiful!
It is not surprising that a woman with such appearance is coveted.

"Xiao Fang, this is my daughter-in-law Yang Qiaolan, you can call her Aunt Zhao." Zhao Jingcai looked at Yang Qiaolan with soft eyes that almost dripped water: "Daughter-in-law, this is Xiao Fang! She has a finely crafted wooden hairpin in her hand." , I bought some goods from her, and I need 184 Wen, so hurry up and bring the money to others."

"Miss Xiaofang, sit down first, and I'll go get the money right away." Yang Qiaolan turned around gracefully and entered the room, her every move carried a smell that could make a man addicted.

If it wasn't for the faint shyness and bewilderment on Yang Qiaolan's face when he saw her just now, Su Kefang would almost have thought that she came from that kind of place.

Su Kefang was very curious, how could Zhao Jingcai marry such a young and beautiful daughter-in-law at his age?
Yang Qiaolan quickly took out a bunch of copper plates from the room and handed them to Zhao Jingcai. Zhao Jingcai counted them again and handed them to Su Kefang after confirming that the number was correct: "Xiao Fang, here are 184 characters. You count them."

Su Kefang took it with a smile and counted it again: "The number is correct."

"Xiao Fang, where can I get these wooden hairpins from you when they are sold out?" Zhao Jingcai was already thinking about the next thing.

Su Kefang thought for a while and said, "Uncle Zhao, to tell you the truth, I don't have enough goods on hand, and I'm not sure when the goods will arrive next time."

Su Kefang paused, and then said: "How about this, when I have the goods on hand, I will send them to Uncle Zhao as soon as possible, do you think so?"

She couldn't guarantee that there would be places where money was urgently needed in the future, so she left a little room for herself.

Hearing this, Zhao Jingcai was a little disappointed, but soon he said again: "Alright! Xiao Fang, you can drop by and see if you can buy some fashionable silver hairpins or head flowers and other head accessories, so that we can also earn a little more .”

"Uncle Zhao, I may not be able to get those silver hairpins and hair flowers." Su Kefang was thoughtful, and Zhao Jingcai's words gave her a new idea.

"What about the other head jewelry?" Zhao Jingcai asked unwillingly.

"Uncle Zhao, let me take a look." Su Kefang pondered.

She was still thinking about whether to teach him some sales tips in the 21st century, but she didn't expect him to know how to be flexible. He must be in a bad mood today to put on a sullen face in front of the booth.

Zhao Jingcai was impatient to take these wooden hairpins to the stall, so he and Su Kefang went back to the street.

Seeing that it was still early, Su Kefang went to the grain and oil store with money, and bought a few catties of brown rice, a small half jar of salt, and a small half bottle of soybean oil.

She originally wanted to buy some rice, but when she asked about the price, it cost 30 Wen a catty. In the end, she had to buy brown rice for 15 Wen a catty.After paying the bill, Su Kefang stored the things in the grain and oil store, then went to the candy store to buy a few pennies worth of candy, and prepared to take it back to Hao'er.

After coming out of the candy shop, Su Kefang smelled the aroma from the noodle soup stall on the street, and couldn't help but swallowed. He just asked the price, and a bowl of noodle soup cost five yuan, so he was reluctant to eat it in the end.

Now that I can save a penny, it is a penny. When I save enough money, I have to buy supplements for Haoer, and my mother-in-law is not in good health, so I have to keep up with nutrition.

She walked to the back street and found a place where no one was around, entered the space and burned a fish to eat. Looking at the big fat fish in the stream, Su Kefang's eyes flashed, and he picked up two big grass carp, and then went out of the space straight away. Go to the meat stall.

This fish alone weighed ten catties. Hearing that she wanted to exchange two big fish for two meat and two big bones, the owner of the meat stall felt that he had made a lot of money, so he immediately exchanged the two meat and two big bones. The bone was tied up with a rope, and a piece of pig intestine was also attached.

A customer at the meat stall felt greedy when he saw the two big fish, and asked, "Little girl, where did you catch this big fish?"

"It was a gift from a relative, and there are a few small fish at home. My family said that the big one can be exchanged for meat, so I'm not willing to eat it." Su Kefang lied without blushing or panting.

"Haha, girl, if your relatives send fish to your family in the future, I'll exchange it for meat!" The meat stall owner said happily.

"Okay!" Su Kefang left the meat stall with a smile on his hands.

In fact, she originally wanted to catch some fish and send them to the restaurant in the town to exchange money, but she had no idea whether she, a country girl, could enter the restaurant. take the risk.

In order not to attract attention, Su Kefang put the meat in the space before going back to the grain and oil shop to pick up the rice and go back to the town to take the bullock cart.

After Su Kefang got off the car at the entrance of the village, seeing no one around, he went back into the space to take out the meat and big bones, and took two big fish to take home.

Su Kefang went back to her mother's house first, divided the things into two parts, put one part in the kitchen, and put the other part under the eaves to be brought back to Fu's family later.

Hao'er heard the noise and came out of the house, and as soon as she saw Su Kefang, she rushed towards her happily: "Girl, mother said that you have gone to the town. Is the town lively?"
