It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 15 Purchasing in the City (August [-]th of the Lunar Calendar)
Su Rui learned that Uncle Chang Ying's family would also go to the county town to purchase the next day, so she quickly said hello and reserved a place, and was going to go to the county town by herself.

It wasn't that she didn't want to take all her younger siblings there, but because the seats on the bus were all booked, there was only one seat left, and it was a very small seat, so she was the only one who could sit on it because she was skinny.

Before dawn the next day, Su Rui pretended to go up the mountain, went into the space and dug up a smaller ginseng wrap, which was estimated to be four or fifty years old.

The ginseng roots planted in the space have regrown ginseng.From two ginsengs to now ten or twenty.

Back in the courtyard, the second sister had already gotten up.

"Sister, did you go up the mountain so early?"

Su Rui took the wild ginseng out of the basket and showed it to the second sister. "I went to the mountain to see it before the autumn harvest. Because I didn't have time to go to the county town, I didn't dig it all the time."

"This one seems to be much smaller than the one sold last time." Su Ying observed this.

"Well, this one is estimated to be 50 years at most."

Su Ying was pleasantly surprised, "Ah, wouldn't it cost more than 100 taels?"

Su Rui nodded with a smile. "In this way, you won't be afraid of sitting on the mountain, right?"

The little girl was blushing, like the housekeeper every day, always worried that the family's money would run out.

"Okay, it's time soon. I'm leaving, you take care of your siblings, don't wait for me to eat." Su Rui picked up her backpack and left.

At the gate of Su Changying's house, everyone waited for Mrs. Lin to sit up with her young daughter Su Min in her arms, and Su Changle set off in the ox cart.

"Aunt Lin, why didn't you bring brother Chenli?"

"It's cold in the morning, I'm afraid he'll be frozen. Besides, it's not easy to go shopping with him." Mrs. Lin straightened Su Min's clothes.

"Hey, is this girl Rui? Why haven't I seen her in a few months, she seems to have become more beautiful?" At dawn, the aunt of the same family in the same car looked at Su Rui.

"It seems to be more beautiful than the previous two months."

"Miss Rui was beautiful before, but now she just opened up a little bit more. What's the fuss? Could it be that your daughter can remain the same from childhood to adulthood?" Lin hates this group of eight women, but it's not good The offense is serious, and the most annoying is the relative.

For a while, no one spoke in the car, and Su Rui was also happy and relaxed. Along the way, her boss, Li Jiashou, made her ears hurt.

When we arrived at the market entrance in the county seat, the bullock carts couldn't get in.

Uncle Chang Le stopped at the entrance of the market, ready to go to the grocery store and wait, and leave after two hours, and don't wait for those who didn't come...

Su Rui and Aunt Lin left, and they all brought some products from home to sell to subsidize the family.

Su Rui found Huichuntang Pharmacy, but she didn't see Dr. Sun when she entered the door, so she asked Yaotong, "Excuse me, is Dr. Sun here?"

"Do you want to see a doctor or grab medicine? If it's medicine, I can catch it." The drug boy looked up and down.

"I don't see a doctor, and I don't buy medicine. I ask Dr. Sun to sell wild ginseng." Su Rui ignored the drug boy's scrutiny.

"Ah, I know who you are. The one who sold 100-year-old wild ginseng last time. Just wait, I'll call Dr. Sun." Yaotong happily ran to the backyard.

"Oh, you are here, little girl. Didn't you say last time that you still have two? Did you grow up with that one!" Dr. Sun hurriedly asked.

"It grows together. I only dug up one this time, and I didn't dig out the other one." Su Rui took out the wild ginseng.

"Not bad, not bad. Although it's not as big as the previous one, and this one is only 50 years old or less than 60 years old, it's in good condition." Dr. Sun stroked his beard and nodded.

Su Rui smiled, but said in her heart, "If you create space, you must produce high-quality products."

"I'll give you 200 taels for this one. Leave the other one to me too." The doctor directly offered the most suitable price, and didn't intend to lower the price.

The main reason is that this wild ginseng has a great curative effect.The one in front was bought by the steward of Qinghe prefecture's family at a price of 1000 taels as soon as he got it. It is said that his ancestors were dying soon and couldn't drink the medicine anymore, so they had to hang themselves with ginseng. I once thought that after drinking ginseng soup for a few days, I gradually got better.

The housekeeper of the magistrate's house came to the door directly and said that if there was any wild ginseng, it would be delivered directly to the door.

Su Rui didn't know Dr. Sun's slander, otherwise it must be strange, she just put the wild ginseng in the space for two days, and just poured water with Lingquan a few times, the effect is not so good, right?Or can ginseng really live longer?
This time Su Rui didn't ask for a silver ticket, but asked for ten taels of gold, 80 taels of silver ingots, and 20 taels of silver.With the back basket, I put the gold and silver ingots into the space, and put the remaining 20 taels on my body, keeping the purchase expenses.

First, I went to the butcher shop and bought five catties of suet and eight catties of pork belly. Both oil and meat cost ten yuan per catty, a total of 130 yuan.When paying, Su Rui saw a pig's trotter and asked.

"How much is the boss' trotter?"

The butcher saw a little girl wanting to buy pig's trotters, so he persuaded him, "Little girl, this is not tasty, there is no meat, it's just skin and bones."

Su Rui said with a smile on her face, "That's because you don't know how to cook, all kinds of pig's trotter delicacies in the previous life."

"It's okay, you can call me all."

The butcher saw that Su Rui insisted, so he stopped trying to persuade him, after all, who would have trouble with money.

"Pig trotters cost five cents a catty, and eight of them total nine catties and one tael. That's nine catties for you. Forty-five cents."

"Uncle Butcher, how do you sell the bones in that bucket?" Su Rui was moved when she saw the big bones. The bone stew could supplement calcium for younger siblings.

"Well, there's no meat on it. I'm going to take it home and eat it myself. If you want, take the five cents." The butcher took out the big bones and tied them together and put them in Su Rui's pannier.

"Thank you uncle."

Su Rui laughed secretly, she was making a lot of money, a big bone of five or six catties was only five cents.

How can you go shopping with nearly 20 kilograms of meat and bones on your back?Su Rui found a place to put the oil and meat into the space, leaving only the trotters and bones.

The grocery store bought two packs of white sugar and brown sugar, and two catties of salt.

The grain store bought various beans such as soybeans and red beans.

Finally, I went to the pastry shop and bought 12 yuan moon cakes, also known as peach cakes, three catties each of candy, peanut candy and sesame candy, divided into three packages, a total of twelve packages.

These things have to go through the clear road and cannot be put into the space.

Su Rui strenuously walked to the entrance of the market with a basket on her back.

"Rui girl, Rui girl."

Su Rui turned her head and saw Mrs. Lin walking towards her.

"Auntie, are you sold out?" When Su Rui saw Aunt Lin coming, the full basket was now empty.

"Yes, the soles of my mother's shoes are of good quality. Every time I come here, they will be sold out."

"Miss Rui, why do you buy so many things?"

I saw that Su Rui's back basket was already full, and she had several packs of snacks in her hand.Lin quickly changed the pannier on Su Rui's back with his own, and sent it to the ox cart at the grocery store.

"Let's go. I'm going to accompany my aunt for a while. It's still half an hour before the time is up. With you, Uncle Chang Ying, you can't lose things." Mrs. Lin dragged Su Rui into the market again.

After shopping around, there was nothing to buy, so I was about to leave.Suddenly saw an old man selling rabbits, hurriedly walked in and asked, "Master, how do you sell this rabbit?"

After a whole morning, someone finally asked, and the old man hurriedly replied, "Fifty Wen for one piece, and [-] Wen for a pair of male and female."

"Girl Rui, why do you want this? There's not much meat, why don't you buy a few catties of meat to eat." Lin hurriedly pulled Su Rui back.

"It's okay, auntie, my Wan'er likes to raise small animals, and she raises my chickens very well."

"A pair of eighty coins, I'll buy it." Su Rui looked at the old man.

"Hey, let's take eighty Wen. Girl, take it well." The old man handed the basket to Su Rui with a troubled face.

"It's going to be winter soon, what are you feeding her?" Lin asked
Su Rui played with the rabbit and replied, "Didn't you plant radishes and cabbage a few days ago, and now there are some new grasses growing. When there is no more grass, you can cut some hay and they will eat it too."

"Oh, you girl spends money recklessly." Lin was helpless...
