Chapter 38 Buying Six Gifts

   Right at this moment, an old woman came in a hurry. Seeing that they were going to close the stall, the man was very disappointed: "Oh, you have closed the stall, have you sold out of tofu?"

   This old lady, Zhao Dong, still has some impressions. She was the first old lady who came to his stall to buy tofu.

   Seeing someone come to ask again, the second aunt immediately burst into laughter and said enthusiastically: "It's not sold out, it's not sold out, there is still one piece."

  Zhao Zhitong also greeted enthusiastically: "Ma'am, do you still want to buy tofu?"

  The old lady didn't expect Zhao Zhitong to still remember her, and immediately smiled and said: "Yes, I want another one."

   It turns out that this old lady is a servant of the landlord Fang, serving the old lady Fang. The old lady Fang is old and her teeth have fallen out early, so she can't eat hard food.

  The tofu is soft and tender, and the old lady fell in love with it instantly. If not, let the old lady buy some more.

  So, she hurried to the market again, but who knew, the original stall of Zhao Dong and the others was gone.

   Fortunately, a butcher next to her told her that there was another stall at the end of the North Street market, so she came over to have a look.

  Zhao Dong wrapped the remaining piece and a half of tofu in lotus leaves, and handed it to the old lady with a smile: "There is only the last piece and a half left, let it be the price of a piece of tofu for you."

  The old lady smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Then what a shame, I brought you half a bowl of tofu curd earlier."

  Zhao Dong waved his hands and smiled: "You are my repeat customer, and you can't sell the remaining half yuan, so you can take it."

  The old lady took the tofu with a smile, and asked where Zhao Dong's house was.

  Hearing that it was Zhaozhai Village, he smiled and said, "That's pretty close. It won't take a quarter of an hour to come here, right?"

  Zhao Dong nodded: "Hurry up, it will take less than two quarters of an hour"

  Afterwards, the old lady learned that the tofu was made by Zhao Dong's daughter-in-law when she was fumbling, so she told her ultimate purpose.

   It turned out that it was Mrs. Fang who asked her to ask if she could go to his house to order tofu every day. The order is not much, and the food at home costs four to five catties.

  Zhao Dong didn't refuse, he just said, if they let someone come to pick it up at home, then it's fine.

  The old lady is full of self-righteousness.

  So, Zhao Dong told the old lady the location of his home and the time to pick up the tofu.

  …

   After seeing off the old lady, the sun above her head is also getting bigger and bigger, and the little monkeys are also starting to feel a little embarrassed.

  Knowing that they were all hungry, Mrs. Liu took out the pancakes she had brought with her from the back basket, broke them and handed them to them: "Everyone eats two bites first, after we go to buy Liuli, we will go home."

  Sun Daji, Sun Daqing and Sun Daxiang took the pancakes, squatted on the side of the road and began to eat them.

  The pancakes were baked when Mrs. Liu was at home last night. Now that they are cold, they have become a bit hard. Therefore, they have to drink water while eating.

  Zhao Zhitong was also holding pancakes in his little hands, squatting on the side of the road like a few little cousins, and gnawed hard.

  Zhao Dong and the others put away the booth, and when they turned around, they saw their daughter was holding a piece of cake, biting it so hard that her little face was deformed.

Zhao Dong couldn't help laughing, knowing that she couldn't get used to this, and thinking of the cold noodle shop he saw on the side of the road when he came here, he suggested: "Don't eat cakes, we also made a lot of money today, later After shopping, let's eat cold noodles."

  The second aunt should not agree: "Brother-in-law, let's go home and eat directly. It's not far from home, so don't waste money."

  The second uncle also echoed: "Yes, listen to your sister-in-law, don't waste money."

  The children who were happy just now were instantly lost.

  Zhao Dong persuaded: "I don't have much money for cold noodles, so the child finally came out."

  The second aunt still disagreed, and asked to go home for dinner.

  Sun Daji and the three of them were so hungry that they looked at Zhao Zhitong one after another.

  Second aunt is a well-known frugal person in her family, she is the kind who adds oil to the oil pan once and fry two dishes.

  Last night, Sun Mei saw it and said that the dishes were not tasty without a little oil and water, but she was very surprised and said, 'The dishes are so delicious, you will have to eat too many steamed buns! '

   At that time, Sun Mei couldn't get it right.

  At this moment, it may be Zhao Zhitong who can make the second aunt change her attention, so the three little radish heads all looked at Zhao Zhitong.

  Receiving the signal from his little friend, Zhao Zhitong immediately ran to Mrs. Liu and acted coquettishly: "Second aunt, second aunt, let's go eat, the cold noodles are delicious."

  Finally, under Zhao Zhitong's attentiveness of rubbing his shoulders and beating his legs, Liu's heart softened and he complied.

  The little radish heads immediately cheered.

  …

   This big market where villagers exchange what they need is opened at a T-shaped three-pronged street.

They are now on the north-south street. If you go south, you can see poultry sellers. If you go further, you will see Butcher Zhao's stall. It is at the intersection of T-shaped street. It is a good place. Location.

   After a group of people said hello to Butcher Zhao, they pushed the cart and turned to East Street, where there are grain and oil shops, fruit stands and other small shops.

  Zhao Dong first turned into the grain shop and bought lotus seeds, longan and red beans.

   Then I went to the fruit stand again.

   There are very few fruit stalls, just one or two, and there are not many types of fruits, all of which are common fruits.

  Looking around, there are plums, green pears, jujubes, and Shaguo, but in front of a booth, he unexpectedly saw Mian Apple (native apple), which is called Nai here.

  However, the price of fruit is generally very expensive, just like this kind of red cotton apple, it costs three pennies,

When the boss saw that Zhao Dong and the others had four children, Dang even began to sell them enthusiastically: "Come and have a look, take a look, there are all kinds of fruits, this plum is sweet and sour, it produces body fluid and quenches thirst. Very delicious, and this big green pear..."

  Zhao Dong hurriedly waved his hands and said no, bought some dates in a hurry, and hurried away with the cart.

  There is still celery left in the sixth ceremony, and I didn’t buy the dried meat strips. I have celery in the vegetable field at home, so I don’t need to buy it. As for the dried meat strips, I just go to Butcher Zhao’s house to buy them.

   Now that the six rituals are complete, Zhao Dong is going to take a few children to eat cold noodles.

  Turning into the street selling cold noodles, I saw a hut hanging in front of a grass shed from a distance, with four big characters written on it.

  Zhao Zhitong, who was lying on Sun Youcai's shoulder, pointed at the cover and said, "Niu's cold noodles!"

  Sun Youcai let out a surprise and said, "Amazing, little Tongtong, you actually know these four characters."

  Zhao Zhitong snorted a little arrogantly, put both hands on Sun Youcai's shoulders, and said in a childlike voice, "I still know a lot of words."

  Sun Daqing, who was standing aside, was very proud: "Hmph, my little cousin is much smarter than my uncle, and she only knows a few words. There's no fuss about that."

  Sun Youcai was speechless, and raised his foot to give him a buttock: "Your little cousin is smart, but it's not you who are smart. What are you talking about?"

  Sun Daqing made a face at Sun Youcai, trotted and hid behind Sun Youli who parked the car and came over.
