Chapter 12

Chen's trip was not in vain, he got a large sum of money, took Shen Lidong out of Baohetang, and first went to Suji silk and satin shop.

Thinking that this time Shen Wenxuan was going to take a scientific examination, he had to make two new clothes.

However, Shen Lidong felt uneasy. Ever since she left Baohetang, she had faintly noticed someone staring at her behind her. That feeling made her feel chills from the soles of her feet, as if she had been given a blow by a bloodthirsty beast. It's like it's locked.

Could it be that he was being targeted by bandits?But it stands to reason that no one would attack their mother and daughter, no matter how they looked at them, they didn't look like rich masters.

No, that century-old ginseng sold to Baohetang!Mrs. Chen now has 600 taels of silver hidden in her body.But Mrs. Chen hid it very secretly, how could she be targeted by someone with a heart?Unless it is Baohetang.

Except that Baohetang would send people to follow their mother and daughter, Shen Lidong couldn't think of a second reason why they were being targeted.

Thinking about it, Shen Lidong's eyeballs rolled around, maybe she had to use some medicine in the medicine field space, and that set of golden needles might have to be used for it.

Mrs. Chen picked out two bolts of cotton cloth at the silk and satin shop, one in azure blue and one in royal blue, with two scholarly square scarves, and asked the shopkeeper to wrap them up, and paid 45 Wen.

Turning around, she found that Shen Lidong beside her was gone, she looked anxious, but saw Shen Lidong looking around at the door of the silk and satin house, she didn't know what she was looking at, her expression was uncertain, her little face was wrinkled. Like a bitter melon.

"Dong'er, what are you looking at?"

"Mother, it's nothing. Dong'er is just visiting the market for the first time, so I just want to see more." In fact, Shen Lidong saw a figure, but the other party was a child, so she didn't think much about it. Worried, Shen Lidong didn't tell Mrs. Chen her intuition that had no evidence.

Looking at the material and square scarf in Chen's hands, Shen Lidong was a little confused.

"Mother, why don't you buy silk and satin for elder brother, when you go out, elder brother should dress better, so as not to be looked down upon by others." Whether in ancient times or modern times, there are many snobs who look down on others.

Shen Lidong felt that Mrs. Chen should dress up her elder brother well, and suggested that Mrs. Chen should buy a pendant like a jade pendant to match her elder brother, but Mrs. Chen patted Mo Shen Lidong's head with complicated eyes.

"Mother's embroidery work doesn't make a lot of money. If you suddenly can afford too good materials, your grandparents and grandparents should be suspicious."

That's right, the shameless villains of the Shen family must never know about the money earned from the [-]-year-old ginseng.

"Dong'er understands, mother."

"It's just mother. After all, mother has wronged you. She can't make new clothes for each of you." Shen Lidong is just too obedient and sensible, and Chen, as a mother, feels more and more ashamed of her.

The children of Dafang's family can wear brand new clothes, eat meat almost every day, and have snacks and snacks without interruption. Only her children have nothing.

Even if she has money in hand now, she still has to hide it so that they cannot know about it. Thinking about it, Chen's heart feels a little depressed.

Seeing Chen's behavior, Shen Lidong knew that his mother was blaming herself again, so of course he held Chen's hand and acted like a baby. "Mother, Dong'er is not wronged. Dong'er is very playful on weekdays. If you wear new clothes, you can't go to the mountains, and you can't play in the mud. Dong'er don't wear new clothes. Besides, the second sister said Today I will change a jacket for Dong'er, so mother doesn't have to worry about Dong'er, Dong'er has something to wear, the second sister changed the jacket to look good, and it is embroidered with flowers, Dong'er likes it." Shen Lidong is quite aware of the character of those members of the Shen family, they are all iron cocks who love to take advantage of each other, but they can only get in and out, if they find out that Niangda buys and buys, maybe something will happen.

Therefore, Shen Lidong understood Chen's approach very well, and it was always right to be cautious.

Stay away from slag, cherish life!
For some reason, when Shen Lidong thought of this sentence, he felt happy, and a smile appeared on his face.

Seeing Shen Lidong's smiling face, Chen Shi felt relieved a lot after hearing her tone, and nodded Shen Lidong's nose with a smile.

"You little girl knows how to make my mother happy."

"Mother falsely blamed Dong'er. Dong'er didn't coax mother. Dong'er told the truth. Mother, you have to praise Dong'er. The masters in the school have said that an honest child is a good boy." Me, praise me, Shen Lidong's bright eyes blinked and blinked.

"Little slippery head." Chen Shi lightly pinched Shen Lidong's cheek, and all the suppressed anger disappeared.

Seeing that Chen Shi can tease her, Shen Lidong's mood has improved, so he stopped acting as a cute doll to coax Chen Shi.

She was led by Mrs. Chen to go to the butcher shop to cut some meat and go home. When she passed the candy shop, Shen Lidong's eyes lit up when he saw the sweet-scented osmanthus sweets there.

In her previous life, she loved the sweet-scented osmanthus candy the most. She remembered that the first time she earned wages from a part-time job, she went to buy a big bag of sweet-scented osmanthus candy to reward herself.

Thinking about it, I felt a sweet taste overflowing from the corner of my mouth.

Seeing Shen Lidong stop, Mrs. Chen stared eagerly at the sweet-scented osmanthus candies on the candy shop, thinking, the child must be hungry.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this sweet-scented osmanthus candy?"

"Thirty cents a catty. Big sister, this is the best sweet-scented osmanthus candy. The ladies and wives in the whole town love to eat this sweet-scented osmanthus candy, but they come to buy it every day. Big sister, buy some for your children. It's the best way to satisfy your hunger." Already." The shopkeeper was a smart and capable woman, who greeted Mrs. Chen with a smile on her face.

"Mother, there's no need, Dong'er doesn't want to eat sweet-scented osmanthus candies, mother, let's go." Shen Lidong is a fake lolita, not a child who can't control his greed.

She clearly knows the purpose of thirty Wen. Here, one penny can buy steamed buns, and one tael of silver is 120 catties of rice. Given their family background, thirty Wen can buy a catty of sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, which is definitely a luxury. one thing.

So Shen Lidong stopped Chen Shi from buying such expensive sweet-scented osmanthus candies, but Chen Shi generously bought half a catty of sweet-scented osmanthus candies and stuffed one into Shen Lidong's mouth.

"Dong'er, eat it, the sweet-scented osmanthus sweets here are the best."

"Mother, you can eat one too." Shen Lidong peeled off one and stuffed it into Chen Shi's mouth. At this moment, the sweetness of osmanthus candy in her mouth was not as sweet as the sweetness in her heart.

Mother, that's great.

Chen Shi was stuffed with one by Shen Lidong, so he had no choice but to taste it in his mouth.

"Mother, this sweet-scented osmanthus candy is so delicious and sweet." Shen Lidong looked up at Chen Shi and smiled sweetly. "I'll give it to my brothers and sisters when I get home. Dong'er has to be hidden so that Brother Wenji won't snatch it away." After listening to this, Mrs. Chen smiled, but didn't say anything, and took Shen Lidong to a meat jerky.

"Uncle Qian, weigh two catties of meat, and go back to satisfy the children's hunger." Uncle Qian was not stingy when he saw that it was the mother and daughter of the Chen family who came to buy meat.

Shen Lidong licked the corner of her mouth when she saw her favorite pig in the previous life in the water. "Mom, buy some of that too, okay?"

"This is Dong'er. I heard that she was injured a few days ago. It will heal now. It seems that she is becoming more and more dexterous. Dong'er must be greedy and want to eat meat, but this food is not delicious, little girl."

"But Dong'er wants to eat it. Mother, let's buy a pair." She really misses the days of eating pigs.

Seeing that Shen Lidong really liked it, Mrs. Chen wanted to pay for a pair of pigs, thinking that it would be a waste of a penny anyway, so she accepted the child.

Uncle Qian refused, smiled and put the two sets of pigs into Chen's basket.

"This is worthless, dirty and fishy, ​​and few people usually buy it. If Dong'er likes it, Uncle Qian will give it to Dong'er."

"How dare you do that?" They already gave them a few extra big bones, and gave them two sets of pigs for nothing. If they were sold to others, they would still get five or six yuan.

Mrs. Chen wanted to pay, but Uncle Qian refused. Finally, Mrs. Chen refused and took it.

"Mother, Uncle Qian is really kind."

"Well, Dong'er, you have to remember that your Uncle Qian knows the situation of our family. He always buys more meat for us on weekdays, and also sends some meat to our family during the New Year and holidays. Our family owes Uncle Qian a lot. Affection."

"Mother, Dong'er knows." Shen Lidong thought that this Uncle Qian was really good, and when their family got rich in the future, they must repay this Uncle Qian well.

"Well, Dong'er is so good. You're going to be hungry. Mother will take you to the noodle stall in front of you to eat a bowl of noodles and fill your stomach. Then we'll go to the city gate to wait for Aunt Zhang and the others, and we'll go back together." Mrs. Chen pulled Shen Lidong reached a noodle stall and ordered a bowl of Yangchun noodles, which the mother and daughter shared.

When Shen Lidong bit the noodles, he felt the chill of being stared at from his back again.

who is it?

Who exactly?They have been following their mother and daughter in secret.

Shen Lidong's eyes sank, he turned around suddenly, and stared fiercely in the direction of his intuition.

The figure standing across from her came into her sight, which shocked her, as if she couldn't believe it.
