Chapter 75

It's rather embarrassing for the old lady to hide money. Think about it, unbuttoning the waistband of her trousers in broad daylight and touching her crotch with her hands, what a wretched picture this is.

Fortunately, the old lady moved quickly, and there was no one around, except for the wife, no one saw this scene.

Yuan Si waited for the old lady to hide the money, and then dragged the people to the street where the market was held last time.

"Si'er, what are you doing here?" The old lady put one hand on her lower abdomen, while the other hand was pulled by her daughter.

"Didn't you say you want to pickle pickles last time? Our house doesn't have a jar for pickles. Since we're here, let's go and have a look, and let's go home together." Yuansi glanced at the old lady's appearance, "Is there any Yes, mother, don't hold the money with your hand, it can't run away, if you hold it like this, no one will know that you have hidden money in it." Helpless, helpless.

The old lady subconsciously pressed her lower abdomen tightly, and then thought of what the girl said, and quickly put down her hand again. It turned out to be a good thing, the old lady couldn't even walk, and she couldn't shake her lowered arm, so stiff Drooping down, it looks particularly weird.

Yuansi felt that she hadn't seen it, and such a shrewd and powerful old lady had such a time.

He dragged the old lady to look at the jars of pickled vegetables. There were large, medium and small ones. The largest one could easily hold Yuansi.

"Si'er, if we want to buy it, we can't buy the small one, it's not worth it." The old lady looked around and discussed it with her daughter.

The smallest tank reaches the knee, which costs [-] yuan, the larger one reaches the thigh, costs [-] yuan, and the largest one reaches the waist of the old lady, costs [-] yuan.Judging from the amount of money corresponding to the volume, it is still appropriate to buy the largest one.

Yuansi nodded in agreement, she meant to buy the two largest ones.

"We didn't bring anyone here today, so we'll just have a look. Someday I'll let your two cousins ​​come with me and help us carry two of us home." The old lady was thinking about the transportation problem. Far away, she and her daughter can't go back together.

"We have a carriage here to deliver the goods to you. If you two buy our tanks, add a little extra money, and we will send you home with the tanks." The salesperson interjected beside him.

Yuansi looked over and followed the direction the salesperson pointed, and she saw that there was indeed a carriage outside.Not bad, the service is in place, and there will be great development in the future.

"How do you charge?" She hadn't forgotten that she came out with the old lady, and if the price was not right, the old lady would definitely not sit.

"The specific charge depends on how far your production team is from the county. Our carriage is not expensive, usually only a few cents, and the farthest one is only one dollar." The salesperson saw that they really wanted to buy it, so he was very happy. Explain to them in detail.

"It's so expensive, let's not take a carriage, and this tank can't run away. I will let your two cousins ​​carry it in a few days, and it won't cost you a penny." The old lady whispered while pulling her daughter.

"When did you ask your cousins ​​to help with something and didn't get a gift?" Yuan Si didn't think it was cheaper to ask for help than to clearly mark the price like this.

Just like the last time the two sisters-in-law took her to the county town together, in fact she could go by herself, but on the surface someone else took her there. After returning, the old lady grabbed a handful of the candy she bought and twisted it. I took one and sent it to my cousin's house as a thank you.

Later, she begged her cousin to help her buy some cotton, and when she came back, she took a piece of meat at home and gave it away at night.

"The things we give away don't cost money." The old lady has a small account of her own, and her thank-you gifts are basically things sent by her daughter-in-law's master. She doesn't spend a penny, and she sends them out as favors Of course she doesn't feel bad.

Yuan Si would not settle accounts like this, because both the money and the things belonged to her. She turned to the salesperson and asked, "How much is it to go to the fourth team of Fanxing Commune?"

"You child, you just don't hear about it." The old lady complained, and listened to the quotation with her ears pricked up.

"Fanxing Commune, that's really not close. The distance is one yuan." The salesperson said.

"Ah, it's so expensive, no, no, you can't sit, let's go back and catch your cousin tomorrow." The old lady firmly disagreed.

Yuansi felt that it was really not worth it to come and go with ink marks for a dollar, and couldn't it be a little more efficient to do something.

"Bring me two of the largest pickle jars, and one of that big water jar, and let the carriage outside take us home." Yuan Si directly made a decision.

The salesperson didn't take her words seriously. After all, the adults pay for the money, so you have to listen to what the adults say.

"What are you doing? You bought an extra water tank, which costs 16 yuan." Seeing that the salesman didn't move, the old lady quickly pulled her daughter.

Yuansi became impatient, "You just earned so much money today, and you can't bear to spend even a fraction of it!" She was about to say, old lady, that you are going to become a miser.

"I don't care. I'm tired from walking and I have to go home by car. Even if you don't buy these, I'll take the car too." Yuansi acted as if I'd let it go.

"You child, you're so used to it. Didn't you go home the same way when you went to the market last time without taking a carriage, and you will bear me." The old lady muttered a few words, then turned her head and shouted at the salesman, " Didn’t my daughter say that if you want two of this and one of that, please tie them up for us quickly, and our mother and I will go in a carriage.”

That's right, Yuansi finally had a smile on her face.

The old lady took a sneak peek, and felt relieved, the little girl's face was really scary.

The salesperson didn't expect that the old lady was such a parent, and she was bluffing a lot, but the child didn't follow the child's words.

She glanced at the little girl next to her again. That's right, it's a girl. Aren't rural people patriarchal? When did girls talk so well.

"What are you looking for? Hurry up. What time is it? We have a long way to go. If we delay for a while, it will be dark."

The salesperson saw the savage look on the old lady's face, and thought about his own fighting strength, forget it, one thing more is worse than one thing less.There have been five quarrels this month, and the leader has already criticized her, so it's better for her to keep a low profile.In this way, Comrade Salesman suppressed the thought of answering a few words, and obediently went out to find the carriage driver to enter the house to carry the goods.

When paying the bill, Yuansi originally wanted to pay, but the old lady said that she would not let her daughter pay for anything, so she buckled and pulled out 30 yuan from her waistband, "This money is spent, although my mother earned it today. The money is all thanks to your master, but you have to pay for it, if you let your master know that I would not be willing to buy a pickle jar for my family, I don’t necessarily think about me, an old lady. You can't do the thing of killing the chicken and taking the eggs." The old lady is quite clear about the big things.

After hearing what the old lady said, Yuansi asked the old lady to pay, "You don't need change, let's pick some plates and bowls by the way." She said directly to the salesperson who asked for change.

The salesperson turned to look at the old lady.

The old lady pursed her lips and nodded with difficulty, thinking that in the future, the little girl must never be allowed to have money in her hands. If she has money, she will not be her anymore, and she will never leave until she spends it all.
