After crossing, I look forward to the three stepmothers leaving the singles every day

Chapter 16 Necessities
Looking at the small baskets on Nan Xing and the others, the village chief Liu Dahai squinted his eyes and asked, "Nan Xing, what are you going to do in the county?"

They ran so fast last night that he didn't have time to ask. At first he thought she was just bored in the village and wanted to go to the county town to have fun. Unexpectedly, the three of them even brought their backpacks with them. It seemed that there were some clothes inside. thing.

It's not like going to play, but it's a bit like a child in the village carrying things to the market to sell.

"We're going to sell things in the city, and after they're sold, we'll buy some sugar back." Nan Xing smiled and said solemnly.

Hearing this, the village chief Liu Dahai couldn't help but look at her twice, wondering when Luo Yunfei changed and was willing to let her come out to work.

At this time, the morning sun quietly rose half a head from the edge of the sky, and the sky suddenly became much brighter.

The soft light hits down, so that everyone who squints their eyes is refreshed.

The village chief Liu Dahai waved his hand, and led the people on their way again.

Nan Xing cheered up and pulled Qiu Ju and Chun Mei to follow behind him.

At the beginning, she still had the energy to look around while sitting in the bullock cart.

But the mountain road is not easy to walk, and there are potholes everywhere.

The bullock cart was very bumpy, shaking her buttocks and waist a little uncomfortable.

Now that I got out of the bullock cart and ran all the way with the back basket on my back, I feel even more tired physically.

Later, it seemed that every time I took a step, there was a deep sense of powerlessness.

In the past, walking to the county town was a funny thing.

But now, she couldn't laugh anymore.

At this time, she couldn't help but miss her previous life very much, and she didn't need to walk more than 200 meters by herself.

"Uncle Hai, how long will it take to get there?" She frowned, thinking that the county town is not so far away.

"It's coming soon, do you see it? Just turn over the opposite mountain and you'll be there."

Nan Xing's face darkened: "..."

After all, the village head Liu Dahai asked everyone to stop and rest again.

The main reason is that there are three more girls, so today they walk much slower than usual.

Fortunately, he had expected it a long time ago, and advanced the time of departure by more than half an hour, so that he would not be too late to arrive at the county seat.

After entering the city, the village chief Niu Dahai drove an ox cart to Lu Jingyou to discuss matters, and the others went to set up stalls.But when they went to the booth, it was almost crowded, and they finally found a vacant seat in a corner.

So, they had to huddle together.

Nan Xing was quite curious at first, but when he arrived, he found that there were many people selling crops and poultry, so he took them away.

Qiu Ju was a little puzzled: "Aren't we going to set up a stall with them?"

"It's not suitable for selling preserved apricots here." Nan Xing shook his head and said.

"Where are we going then?"

"The restaurant."

Seeing that she didn't look like she was joking, Qiu Ju and Chun Mei were very disturbed.

In their hearts, the restaurant is a place where nobles come and go, and they dare not even take a second look when they pass by.

Yanghuai County is not big, so they walked for a while, turned a few turns, and came to the door of a Hongfu Restaurant.

In fact, there is a Jinxi Restaurant across the street, but the door is still ajar, unlike Hongfu Restaurant which is already open to welcome customers.

But this time is still a bit early, no wonder people haven't opened the door yet.

"Little lady, do we really want to go in?" Chunmei was a little dumbfounded, and asked tentatively.

"If you don't go in, how can you sell the preserved apricots?" Nan Xing glanced at them and smiled.

"We can set up a stall, or we can stand there like the old man selling candied haws, waiting for people who want to buy to come over..." Chunmei looked up at the golden plaque of Hongfu Restaurant, lowered her head involuntarily, and spoke It is also becoming more and more lacking in confidence.

Nan Xing followed her gaze and looked over, it was possible.

But, she didn't want to do that.

She went straight in, and with a smile on her lips, she chatted with Zhu Gao, the waiter in the shop: "Where's your boss? Didn't you come over today?"

When they were standing at the door and muttering, Zhu Gao had already noticed them. This early in the morning, he thought they were girls from some rich family.

Unexpectedly, he came to look for the owner as soon as he opened his mouth. He couldn't help but be more polite: "The owner is out for a while, but we have our horse shopkeeper here. I don't know what's the matter with you? If it's just to order a banquet, I can arrange it for you directly. .”

"Oh, it's fine if your shopkeeper is here." Nan Xing took out a small bag of preserved apricots from Qiu Ju's back basket and handed it to him directly: "The heat is so hot these days, your shopkeeper's appetite may not be very good, and our place is just right. There are some snacks, sweet and sour, please take them in for him to taste."

Zhu Gao was taken aback: "Do you know our shopkeeper?"

Nan Xing shook his head, then nodded again: "We will meet soon."

Zhu Gao was taken aback again, couldn't help raising his head to look at her twice more, before walking towards the inner hall.

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei were also stunned for a while, their eyes were a little dazed, and they didn't know where Nan Xing got his confidence.

At this time, the shopkeeper Ma Huayi was eating breakfast, and his appetite was very light. He glanced at the things Zhu Gao brought in, and was a little surprised: "This is it?"

Zhu Gao's heart skipped a beat, he actually forgot to ask her what the name of the snack was just now, he couldn't help but blushed, and stood aside with his head down.

Ma Huayi glanced at him again, and then glanced at the thing on the oil paper. It was a little yellow and a little red. I chewed it in my mouth.

With a sound of 'wow', his throat moved, and he swallowed a preserved apricot, and his appetite was instantly opened.

Zhu Gao stood aside, seeing his surprise, he couldn't help staring at the thing.

Ma Huayi ate two more in a row, then raised his head and asked, "Where is he? Have you left?"

"No, I'm still waiting in front, saying I'm waiting for the shopkeeper's reply." Zhu Gao responded quickly.

He quietly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't drive people away at first.

"Why has he been gone for so long?"

"It can't be that their shopkeeper dislikes the preserved apricots we make?"

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei glanced in the direction of the inner hall a little unsurely, then quickly lowered their heads.

"Good things need to be tasted slowly, just like this tea, why don't you try it?" Nan Xing picked up a pot of tea and drank it by himself.

As soon as the other waiters heard that they were here to sell food, no one was willing to come up to greet them.

Nan Xing didn't mind either, he simply greeted himself as if he was coming home.

Qiu Ju and Chun Mei stared at her with wide eyes, their legs were still trembling since they came in.

Who would have thought that Nan Xing of their family is so courageous, she treats this place as her own home, why didn't she realize how courageous she was before.

They wanted to nod in their hearts, and wanted to taste what the tea in the restaurant tasted like, whether it was a kind of fairy water as the old people in the village said.

But when they glanced at Ma Huayi who was coming out, they immediately shook their heads and whispered to Nan Xing, "We have water."
