Chapter 20 Mung Bean Cake

Shen Jianwan felt that he was generous enough in eating.

Unexpectedly, Shen Zhan was more ruthless than her when he bought ducks. There were six ducks all at once, and he packed two large cages. It was as if these ducks were his own and didn't cost any money. She couldn't help being stunned.

Brother Shen Zhan, who is in love with her, is also a potential spender.

However, she would not reject her brother Shen Zhan.

She will accompany him in whatever he wants to do in this life, not to mention just buying a few ducks.

Shen Jianwan said that her brother Shen Zhan is her favorite!

Moreover, this purchase of food to replenish her body is exactly what Shen Jianwan meant, and she would not have any opinions.

What she didn't know was that Shen Zhan had been remembering since the doctor said yesterday that she wanted to replenish her body.

From the pheasants killed at noon to the current ducks, he nourishes her body.

As for buying other things, it is not necessarily that he will be so generous.

And a catty of ducks costs nine coins, and these six ducks weighed more than 37 catties, so 337 coins were lost all at once.

Shen Jianwan asked the stall owner to wipe off the fraction and still asked for 330 wen.

After placing the two large cages of ducks on the trolley, Shen Jianwan saw that there were chickens and ducklings beside him.

Thinking that I can buy it back and raise it until the New Year, and I can slaughter it, so I don’t have to spend any more money to eat chicken and duck to nourish my body in the future.

And they could lay eggs, and having poultry in the house was more lively, so she bought fifteen more chicks and ducklings each.

The chick cost four fen a piece, the duckling five fen, a total of 130 fen, and Shen Jianwan bought it for 130 fen after talking about the price again.

In the end, she also asked the stall owner to send her two cages for chickens and ducklings.

At this point, in addition to going to the bookstore to show Shen Xuan if there is any copy, the purpose of their trip to the town has been successfully achieved.

After a while, they came to town to sell prey, sell recipes, and the money they earned from selling embroidery spent nearly two taels of silver on this big purchase.

Of course, the Shen family lacked far more than that.

Like buying new clothes, as well as large items such as cotton-padded clothes and quilts, Shen Jianwan said that he would wait until he made more money in the future.

With the money they have, they will first send Mother Shen to see a doctor in the county seat.

Next, Shen Jianwan and Shen Zhan went to the bookstore.

This time they were very lucky. Usually, seven times out of ten visits, they didn't copy the book. This time, a batch of new books just came to the store to be copied.

The words of Shen Jianwan and Shen Xuan were registered with the shopkeeper, so after Shen Jianwan explained his intention, the shopkeeper agreed without saying a word.

No, Shen Jianwan estimated the time given by the shopkeeper. She picked up five books for Shen Xuan to copy, and after copying them, she could have a few hundred pennies. I believe Shen Xuan will be happy.

After coming out of the bookstore, Shen Zhan saw that the pastry shop next to him that existed since he was a child was still open.

Thinking that Shen Jianwan likes mung bean cakes, he hesitated for a while, so he asked her to guard the scooter, and he went in to buy some for her.

Shen Jianwan watched Shen Zhan go into the pastry shop to buy mung bean cake, and his childhood memories suddenly flooded up.

She remembered things she had forgotten for so long.

At that time, she was only six years old. Ding'an Mansion suffered from years of severe drought, and there was no grain in the land. She was sick and couldn't eat what adults could eat. She wanted to eat mung bean cake.

However, everyone was interrupted, where did the mung bean cake come from.

That time when the army was resting, Brother Shen Zhan heard that their Yamato army was not short of food, so he stepped forward and told the leader that he wanted to join them.

The leader of the team saw that he was only eleven or twelve years old, and at first thought he was joking.

After seeing that he was serious, he rejected him, saying that although he had an exquisite skeleton and looked like a soldier, he was too young to meet their requirements.

Then the team set off. He didn't give up and chased the cavalry team for more than ten miles. The leader of the team was shocked by his perseverance and determination, and finally accepted him.

When he came back from the county seat, he brought back half a catty of mung bean cake that was more expensive than gold at the time, a bag of milled rice, and 5 taels of silver.

I remember the day he left, the long-lost spring rain finally started, and the six-year-old she ran all the way without catching up with him, who was carrying luggage in front of her.

In the end, she asked Shen's father to hold her back, and after returning, she developed a high fever. After waking up, for some reason, her memory was blurred and she forgot about him.

If she hadn't lost these memories in her previous life, she would definitely not have gone to Fucheng with Wang Xuemei, and there would have been no tragedy for the two of them later.

Now this memory has suddenly come back, and the bits and pieces before the age of six have also become clear.

A wave of grief and grief as terrifying as before dying in the previous life surged up.

She was instantly defeated, and she couldn't restrain herself from crying.

The people around saw Shen Jianwan's state of being stopped one after another. Although she didn't cry much, it made people feel the sadness inside.

For a while, the people surrounding her couldn't help but talk a lot.

The shop assistant of the dim sum shop came out just to see this scene, knowing that she came with Shen Zhan, afraid that she would not be able to explain what happened in front of the shop, and hurriedly shouted: "Guest officer, what happened to your daughter."

Shen Zhan just paid the money, and when he heard the words, he turned around and saw that Shen Jianwan was crying outside.

"Awan, Awan, what's the matter with you?"

Shen Jianwan heard Shen Zhan's cry and knew that he was anxious, but he couldn't get rid of this grief for a while, and was afraid of what he would do in a hurry, so he could only cry: "Ah... it's okay tonight!"

When Shen Zhan heard her voice and finally let go of half of his heart, he finally looked at it and found that she had really woken up from the nightmare just now, and the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

For some reason, Shen Jianwan was so fragile at this time that his heart ached and he almost couldn't breathe.

Shen Zhan couldn't control himself and hugged her gently in his arms, comforting her as before, "Ah Wan, it's alright, we're alright."

Feeling his hot embrace, Shen Jianwan collapsed again, and for a while he couldn't tell whether it was a past life or this life.

She couldn't help crying incoherently: "Brother Shen Zhan, don't go, Ah Wan doesn't want mung bean cake, Ah Wan won't eat it, Ah Wan won't eat it."

Shen Zhan was shocked when he heard this. If he didn't understand what happened just now, he still didn't understand it now.

But he clearly remembered that his mother said that after she developed that dangerous high fever, she finally got better and forgot everything before the age of six.

Why did she suddenly remember it now?
Before he could think about it, he wiped the tears from her face with his clothes.

Seeing that there were more and more people around, he coaxed: "O Wan, brother Shen Zhan won't leave, let's go home first."

When it was over, I took her to the scooter, and the second shop assistant chased after her, "Guest officer, I'm looking for your money!"

"Brother Shen Zhan, silver!"

Shen Zhan was about to let go of Shen Jianwan to push the cart. Seeing that she still remembered Yinzi, she knew that she was really all right, and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, don't worry Awan, brother Shen Zhan will go get it now."

Afterwards, Shen Zhan insisted on taking Shen Jianwan to see the doctor.

Sure enough, the doctor found out that she had nothing to do except that her body was a little weak.

However, there have been many more frail civilians these years, and I can't help but ask the doctor who came to see it.

As soon as Shen Zhan said that the reason was that she had just cried so sadly, the doctor was so angry that her beard cocked up, "I need to see the doctor when I cry? Does the old man seem very free, get out!"

Then they let the old doctor roar and drive out.
