The female supporting role who was deprived of the koi luck in the chronicle

Chapter 40 Going to the Market
It was already daylight at this time, and as soon as they sat down, they heard the bicycle bell of "Dingling, Dingling" not far away.

The ringtone was crisp and sweet, and Susie even felt that there was a bit of indescribable joy.

A bicycle was coming from the way they had come.

Susie quickly saw the man riding the bicycle——Xu Zhiqiang.

With a smile on his face, Xu Zhiqiang turned his head from time to time to talk to the people in the back seat.

It was only then that Susie realized that there was a woman sitting on the back seat of the bicycle, who seemed to be Yu Xue.

Soon, Xu Zhiqiang also saw a few people resting on the side of the road. He stopped the car and tapped his foot on the ground, "Are you rushing to the market?"

Tian Xiaohui nodded, glanced at Yu Xue in the back seat of Xu Zhiqiang's car, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, why are you going?"

Xu Zhiqiang blushed, "No, why not, just go to the county town to have fun."

Yu Xue sat in the back seat of the car and did not get off. She glanced at several people and tugged on Xu Zhiqiang's clothes, "Let's go, there are many things to do, don't be late."

Xu Zhiqiang smiled apologetically at several people, "Then let's go first." As he spoke, the bicycle quickly went away.

Zhao Tingting heheed, "Yu Xue is also interesting, she doesn't even say hello, and she looks at people with a superior look."

Susie didn't answer, and they rested for a while, then got up and continued walking.

After another three or four miles, they finally arrived at Qingshi Town.

Today's Qingshi Town is completely different from when we came that day.

From the street to the end of the street, there are people everywhere.

There are various small stalls on the ground on both sides of the street.

Mushrooms, bamboo baskets, chairs, brooms, loofahs, dog skin plasters, ginger candies, everything for sale.

Su Xi looked at it, and it was mainly agricultural and sideline products. There were basically no products produced in the factory on the street stalls.

Tian Xiaohui was so excited that she dragged Susie and Zhao Tingting around. After they bought some needed things, she suddenly said mysteriously: "Follow me, I know a good place."

She looked around, as if she was looking for something, and then led the two of them around the town to a secluded alley.

Tian Xiaohui dragged the two of them in, and turned a corner again, only then did Susie realize that there were also stalls here, it should be a black market.

After walking for a while, I saw a chicken with its feet tied and thrown on the ground at a stall, with a basket of eggs beside it.

Susie studied the cockscomb first, and after confirming that it was a hen, she asked the aunt who sold the chicken, "Does this chicken lay eggs?"

The aunt nodded vigorously, "Lay eggs." She pointed to the eggs next to her, "The eggs here are all newly laid."

Susie asked again, "Isn't it good to keep the chicken and lay eggs every day? Why sell it?"

The aunt waved her hand, "This chicken has been raised for two years, but now it doesn't lay many eggs, and it takes a few days to lay one, so just sell it for some money."

After chatting with the aunt for a few more words, Susie realized that only young hens are willing to lay eggs. Generally, hens lay fewer eggs after they are two years old.It seems that we still have to buy chicken cubs.

However, the hen and eggs were also hard to come by. Susie wrapped up the aunt's chicken and eggs, and spent a total of three yuan.

Zhao Tingting watched Su Xi pay the money, and quickly took out a paper note to settle the account.

After shopping around for a while, Susie finally found a chicken seller. The stall owner was an old man. Zhao Tingting bargained and bought five small chickens for one yuan and fifty cents.

Tian Xiaohui suddenly pointed at the end of the alley ahead, and pulled Susie hard. Susie looked over and saw two white bags of rice on the ground.

Tian Xiaohui said excitedly: "Buy some, I really can't eat sweet potato rice."

Susie also wanted to buy it, but hesitated for a while, "I'm afraid we won't be able to get this rice back."

Zhao Tingting tugged on Susie's clothes and whispered, "Cissy, I think it's better not to buy it. After all, we are eating together. Qiao Mu and Yuan Gang may not agree—"

Susie understood what she meant. If everyone eats rice, everyone must pay for it. Not everyone is like her, with a huge sum of several hundred yuan.

Besides, eating rice for a long time is really unaffordable.

Susie pondered for a moment, "Then don't buy it."

Although Tian Xiaohui was reluctant to part with the rice, she was still very obedient and was obediently pulled out of the alley by Susie.

It was still a secluded alley, Susie thought that the town was not big, and she was not afraid of getting lost, so she chose a random direction and walked forward.

After walking for a while, they heard the voices of people in the market. They walked to the entrance of the alley, and just as they were about to go out, Susie's eyes suddenly stopped on the side of the road.

There is a waste collection station in this alley.

There were a lot of waste newspapers and books on the ground, and an old man was sitting on a bamboo recliner, listening to the radio with his eyes closed.

Susie's heart moved, she walked over and asked, "Old man, can I buy a few books here?"

The old man opened his eyes and waved his hand casually, "Choose by yourself. If you choose, you will be paid. Two cents a book."

It seems that this is not the first time for the old man to do this kind of business, Susie agreed, and squatted in front of the pile of used books to search.

Tian Xiaohui squatted down next to her and began to search, "What book are you looking for? A novel?"

There is nothing interesting in this country, and she is planning to get some books somewhere.

Susie shook her head, "Textbooks, the textbooks for the second and third grades, take them out when you see them." She has the textbooks for the first grades herself, but she lacks the textbooks for the second and third grades.

Although there are still two or three years before the resumption of the college entrance examination, she has to prepare early.

Tian Xiaohui laughed, "We don't go to school anymore, what else do we need?"

Susie didn't explain, but said, "I'm useful."

Zhao Tingting muttered beside her, "If I knew you wanted it, I would have brought those books."

Su Qian turned to look at her, by the way, Zhao Tingting is a fresh graduate from high school, "You still have your textbooks?"

Zhao Tingting nodded and shook her head again, "I don't know, I took it home after graduation, and my mother has probably sold it as scrap."

Susie continued to search, "When will you go back to visit relatives, look for it, and bring it here if you find it."

"Okay." Zhao Tingting agreed, put down the back basket on her body, sat on a pony tie and looked around boredly.

Susie searched for a long time, but only found a few textbooks for junior high school and primary school, not for high school.

She patted her head. Qingshi Town is where the commune is located, and the commune is actually the township government for later generations. There are only junior high schools here, no high school, and there are probably not many high school students in the whole commune. If you want to find high school textbooks, you may have to go to Check out the county.

She took out two junior high school textbooks, and turned around to see Tian Xiaohui reading the books with great interest.

She tugged at Tian Xiaohui's braid, "It depends on buying it and going back to see it, you think this is a library."

"Oh, my legs are numb from squatting." She stood up and stretched her legs.

At this moment, something kicked under her feet suddenly, she looked down, there was a pile of broken copper and iron at her feet, and the thing that almost hit her feet was a dusty mass.
