Chapter 31
"Father, let's find out if there are any other fruits later, shall we?"

He looked down at the syrup jar that was almost bottomed out. Mo Qianrui had prepared a lot of sweet potato syrup earlier. He thought it must be enough, but after such a short time, the syrup was almost gone.This is mainly because Mo Qianrui didn't expect that there would be so many people in Wangjiazhuang. After all, he didn't see so many people when he went to the market in Liujiazhuang last time.

"Sure, I remember there should be some loquats at this time, I'll go buy some later and take them home to eat together." Father accepted the money while responding casually.

Loquat?

Mo Qianrui was overjoyed, she actually didn't like purely sweet fruits very much.On the contrary, the sweet and sour fruit is very suitable for her appetite.Silently calculating in her heart, she sold at least two or three hundred Wen today, and Mo Qianrui began to happily think about what to buy later.

Mo Qianrui hasn't eaten meat for a long time since the last time the chicken thief visited and ate two bites of barbecue.Even if there are no old hens to sell in the market, it is always possible to buy a knife of pork.In addition, I don't know if Wangjiaji has seasonings for sale. There are too few seasonings at home, and Mo Qianrui thinks it is necessary to add some.

By the way, if possible, it would be even better to buy some rock candy.This way she can make better looking fruit skewers next time. After all, the sweet potato syrup is still not transparent enough, and she simply has no ability to solve this problem.

Mo Qianrui's plans are excellent, but sometimes, what he thinks in his heart may not come true.

Just when Mo Qianrui dug out all the syrup in the jar and made the last two sugar paintings, Dad suddenly looked up at the sky, and then said a few words to the people at the stall next to him, with a serious expression on his face Said to Mo Qianrui: "Clean up the stall quickly, the rest will not be sold."

"Ah? What happened?" Mo Qianrui looked up blankly.

"Hurry up, today... do you want candy? The last two are available, little girl. If you want them, you can buy them all. It will be worth three pennies." Father said to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl in front of the stall.

The girl was stunned for a moment, and took back the two pennies that she was going to hand to Dad, and took out another penny to add.Father immediately gave the sugar painting to the girl, and quickly put all the things on the stall into the basket.

Mo Qianrui was baffled, and it wasn't that he minded that Dad lowered the price. After all, there were only the last two, so she fully understood the promotional price.But what are you doing in such a hurry?They came out after having a full breakfast, and originally planned to wait until they were scattered before going back. Anyway, except for the wheat harvest season, everyone ate two meals a day on weekdays.

"Come on, big girl, let's go find the two girls from the Li family." Dad put the basket on his back, reached out to hold Mo Qianrui, and walked forward.

Mo Qianrui wanted to ask what's the matter, but saw that the nearby stalls were closed, and some of the stalls sold what she wanted, but before she could open her mouth, they ran away with their things on their backs. I can't even call back.

All of a sudden, Mo Qianrui had a sense of sight as if a temporary peddler met an urban management...

But this is not right, this Wangjiaji is reasonable and legal, and I have never heard that there are urban management in this era, even if there are, they will never come to such a rural place.

"Uncle Mo, big girl!"

From a distance, I saw Li Jialiniang rushing towards them screaming, and behind her were Meiniang, who was also flustered but forced to be calm, and the two sister-in-laws of the Li family who were carrying big bags and small bags. .

"Hurry up, put the things in my back basket if you can't get them. Hurry up!" Dad asked the two sister-in-laws of the Li family to throw all the things in his arms into his back basket, and then led them to run outside the market.

Mo Qianrui was confused, but everyone around her seemed to know it well, and no one explained anything to her.Simply put, she didn't bother to use her brain anymore, and just ran outside behind Father's back.

He ran non-stop for a full quarter of an hour, seeing Yangliu Village approaching, and unexpectedly, a sudden torrential rain fell from the sky.

The rain fell suddenly, and to Mo Qianrui, there was no warning at all.However, there is no place to shelter from the rain, and the rain is fast and rushing, accompanied by strong wind and lightning.Almost at such a moment, Mo Qianrui became a drowned chicken, wiped his face fiercely, but still couldn't see the road ahead, and slipped on the soles of his feet in panic...

Thus, Mo Qianrui successfully changed from a drowned chicken to a beggar chicken, the kind of beggar chicken that was just dug out of the dirt.

Although Mo Qianrui didn't cry out like a real ten-year-old girl because of the memories of her previous life, she was indeed embarrassing.She has never been so embarrassing, and it is estimated that this is probably the most embarrassing time in her two lives combined.

As a result, just thinking about it, Mo Qianrui suddenly felt his body lighten, and then his father's voice of self-blame came from his ears: "Did you fall down, big girl? Sigh, let's hold you by my father's arms."

What about life!Sure enough, I can't easily draw conclusions for myself. For Mo Qianrui, there is only more embarrassment, not the most embarrassment.

She curled up stiffly in Father's arms, aside from other things, at least Mo Qianrui didn't have to worry about falling again.

Against the pouring rain, Mo Qianrui was carried into the yard by his father.The sisters of the Li family, Hua and their two sister-in-laws, also rushed in together, looking like headless chickens.

Seeing this, A Niang, who had been sitting in the main room looking at the yard, hurriedly helped to get dry towels, but Meiniang had come to her senses now, and didn't ask for a dry towel, even the things she bought at the market. He didn't take it, so he dragged Liniang straight to his house, causing the unsuspecting Liniang to almost fall and eat shit.But their two sisters-in-law were quite calm, borrowed a bamboo basket from Mo's house and ran to Li's house with their things.

Mo Qianrui can understand Meiniang's thoughts very well. She wears relatively few clothes in summer, but after being drenched by the rain, her whole body is completely soaked.Even though she wouldn't be naked, the wet clothes clinging to her body exposed her figure after all.

Meiniang is a big girl who is about to get married, so it is normal to be ashamed like that.

But Liniang is a child and doesn't think so much.

As for her two sister-in-laws, they didn't care that much.Several children have been born, but even if the clothes get wet, it's not a big deal, and the people in the countryside don't pay much attention to it.

Here, Auntie was in a hurry to find a change of clothes for Mo Qianrui and Apa, and the Li family was also in a hurry, but it had nothing to do with Mo Qianrui.

After finding some clean clothes, A-Niang left A-father in the main room, and she dragged Mo Qianrui to the kitchen.

There was still hot water that Auntie had boiled on the stove, and she scooped it out and poured it into the washbasin. Auntie stripped Mo Qianrui naked, and wiped her whole body with a hot towel. Putting on clean clothes, he forced her to lie down under the blanket immediately.

Mo Qianrui continued her embarrassing journey, but fortunately, Er Ya has been sleeping in her parents' room and did not see her in such embarrassment.

It was not until he was lying on the bed that Mo Qianrui let out a sigh of relief.She understood what A Niang meant, even though it was midsummer, but she was drenched by the heavy rain, if she didn't keep warm, the cold would be mild.It's normal to have a high fever if you can't manage it, it doesn't matter in your previous life, it's just a matter of a few cold medicines, if you don't go to the hospital and hang two hanging bottles, you'll be fine.But in this era of lack of medical conditions, if it is not done well, something big will happen.

Rejecting A Niang's ginger soup, Mo Qianrui poured two large bowls of hot water, and then took a comfortable nap until he was woken up by urination and hunger.

Carefully walk along the eaves to the toilet. One bad thing about this courtyard house is that the eaves are too narrow.It’s fine on weekdays, but once it rains heavily, it’s almost impossible to walk from the main room to the toilet without getting your clothes completely wet.Mo Qianrui could only be more careful.

When he came out of the latrine and passed the stove, Mo Qianrui poked his head inside. Auntie was already cooking, smelling the aroma, she guessed it was ready.Seeing Mo Qianrui's probe, Aunt hurriedly called her to help set the dishes.Mo Qianrui washed his hands in the water under the eaves, and then helped serve the food to the main room.

"This rain is really heavy enough." Mo Qianrui looked at the heavy rain outside in awe.

In her previous life, of course, she also encountered rainy days, but there were weather forecasts at that time, and the city she was in was not a rainy city. It was the first time she had seen such a sudden heavy rainstorm.

This morning was fine, with a clear sky.But before noon, such an astonishing torrential rain came.It was already evening now, and the torrential rain still didn't seem to have any intention of stopping.

"Isn't it? Fortunately, all the wheat in our family has been harvested and dried. When it rains, God knows when it will be big."

If Mo Qianrui is purely sentimental, then A Niang is lucky.But Dad thought for a moment and said: "I remember, there are still people in the village who haven't harvested the wheat?"

A Niang was stunned for a moment, and then a disdainful expression appeared on her face: "Isn't that the old Zhang's family? His family doesn't have much land. If the mother and son went to the land together, they would have cleaned up by now. There wasn't much to gain. But she was so exhausted that her son fell ill, and she was injured by the Li family, and even the Li family refused to let others help. Is this all right? "

"That's right, I made it myself." Dad said casually, but there was still obvious regret on his face, "Old Zhang's family doesn't have much land, but there's a lot of wheat left. Now, It's all ruined."

"That's true, it's a pity to lose so much good food."
