Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods

Chapter 16 16. Don't inquire about the affairs of the sister-in-law's house
The aunt and sister-in-law planned to make a bullock cart at the entrance of the village when they left the house.

If you want to live in the village, you have to integrate into it. Before, the villagers didn't know that Chengxi brought back several thousand catties of grain, so they naturally thought that they didn't have much rice and noodles.

And she also plans to buy some bright noodles today.

Cheng Xi's face was unfamiliar to Shenjiacun, and only members of the Shenjiatang relatives had seen her.

Fortunately, there was a sister-in-law by my side, and I met several aunts in just a few minutes of waiting for the bus.

"This is Xiaoxi, right? Sure enough, he's from the city, and his looks are his signature!"

"It's Aunt Wang, Uncle Wang's wife."

Shen Xingqi reminded in a low voice beside her that Cheng Xi connected the woman in front of her with the mason who made the Shen family's kang.

Quite a couple.

"So it's Aunt Wang's, and you're going to the embroidery workshop too?"

"Our women's family can do needlework. Didn't they recently embroider a few handkerchiefs for the shopkeeper of the embroidery workshop to take care of them?"

Aunt Wang sat beside the two of them familiarly, her voice was much lower than before.

"By the way, buy some food. Thanks to Xingluo who let my family go to work and earn some money, otherwise this winter will be difficult."

The Wang family is an immigrant family with only two acres of land. They rely on Uncle Wang's private work to make money on weekdays. It can be said that they are very poor.

Cheng Xi smiled, "Uncle Wang's craftsmanship is good, does anyone in the entire Shenjia Village know?"

"I heard that the thing on the plate is called Kang?"

"Yes, it's for the winter in Lingbei."

"Is it easy to use? Lighting some firewood in winter can really generate heat?"

"I don't know, my husband said it can be done."

If it wasn't hot, she would definitely be the one to blame.

"It's really hot!"

Aunt Wang's attention was obviously on the second half of the sentence, and she became excited when she heard this.

"Then I'll ask your Uncle Wang to make one at home, using the mud used to build the wall!"

But she heard from her man that they used high-quality red bricks for the dish, isn't this just nonsense?
How precious are the red bricks!

Cheng Xi's eyes flashed, and he labeled the woman in front of him as "smart".

This is not quite like that honest and honest mason.

"Are you the Cheng Xi who promised to repay the favor?"

An arrogant female voice broke the conversation between the two, Cheng Xi looked to the side, and found a young girl wearing a floral padded jacket sitting on the bullock cart at some point.

"Ask you, don't you?"

"I'm Cheng Xi, but what does the girl mean when she says you want to repay her kindness?"

"That's right. I heard that your father made a marriage contract with brother Xingluo after saving Uncle Shen's family. Isn't this a repayment of kindness?"

The little girl's voice was not low, not to mention that Cheng Xi's existence was already eye-catching, but now she successfully attracted the attention of the seventh aunt and eight aunts.

The original discussions near the bullock cart disappeared and turned into whispers.

Shen Xingqi beside her was already so angry that her small chest began to heave, and the person involved became the calmest one instead.

Cheng Xi tilted his head and looked at her for a moment, then said slowly:
"There's a saying that goes, 'One hundred years of cultivation can cross the same boat, and one thousand years of cultivation can lead to sleep together'. To be able to become a husband and wife is a blessing from heaven. Others can't envy you, you know?"

"you"

Didn't it mean that the bride married by Brother Xingluo was the daughter of a warrior?
How do you know poetry!
"Also, the person who has been favored by the benefactor has no choice but to agree is called repaying favor. For example, the Shen and Cheng two negotiated peacefully and finally reached an agreement, which is called hit it off and mutual consent, you know?"

"How can you say such things in public?"

The little girl was shocked, "Shameless!"

"Didn't you mention it first?"

Cheng Xi blinked her eyes, and the dimples on both sides of her cheeks were faintly visible.

"Since you call my husband elder brother, then I am your sister-in-law. Remember from now on, don't inquire about the affairs of sister-in-law's family, otherwise you will not be able to marry in the future."

As soon as the words fell, the women who had been watching the excitement all focused their eyes on the girl, with a bit of strangeness.

This matter is taken care of by other people's couples. For unmarried girls, it is indeed inappropriate.

Is it not.
"Wow--"

Feeling the suspicion in everyone's eyes, the little girl finally burst into tears, jumped off the bullock cart and ran towards the village.

Cheng Xi: "."

That's it?

She fell down before she could exert any force.

Cheng Xi's newly raised fighting spirit was forced to withdraw before he had time to exert his skills, and he suddenly felt dull.

Looking away regretfully, she looked at Shen Xingqi with a stunned and adoring expression.

"Sister-in-law, you are too powerful!"

"Generally, learn more in the future."

"But which book did the phrase 'Cultivate the same boat for a hundred years, and sleep together for a thousand years' come from, why have I never read it?"

"Oh, that's the story of two snakes forcing a cowardly man to repay him with kindness, and finally scaring him to death."

"???"

***
The ox cart stopped at the gate of Fucheng, and several women scattered after entering the gate.

Cheng Xi and Shen Xingqi went to the pharmacy first, and took out the prescriptions for treating trauma to Shen Xingluo.

"Dude, do you have any spice here?"

"It depends on what the girl needs. Our Renxintang has the most complete herbal medicine. If it doesn't exist here, then other pharmacies probably don't have it either."

"Bay leaves, cinnamon, nutmeg, star anise, grass fruit, pepper"

Cheng Xi reported more than a dozen big ingredients in a row, but the man who picked up the medicine was confused.

"How not?"

"Yes, but what disease does so many medicines come together to treat? It's really unheard of!"

"As long as you have it, give me half a catty of everything."

"Girl, these herbs are very expensive, are you sure you want half a catty of each?"

"Just grab it according to my requirements, and the money is indispensable for you."

Cheng Xi took out the 100 taels of silver bill and patted it on the counter, showing impatience.

Seeing this, the buddy curled his lips and didn't ask any more questions, he turned around as if a lunatic had come, and went to grab the medicine.

Spices are usually sold after being dried or roasted and dehydrated. The unit price is really not cheap, and the original trauma medicine cost a full 50 taels.

Cheng Xi took the packed medicinal materials and went out with Shen Xingqi. Doctor Wu who was sitting in the hall shook his head and sighed while looking at their backs, arousing the staff's doubts.

"Doctor Wu, do you also think that girl is strange?"

"Strange? The old man just feels pitiful."

Dr. Wu still remembered Cheng Xi, he was the one who gave Shen Jieyuan a pulse and prescribed prescriptions a few days ago, but now he is grabbing all kinds of herbs randomly, so Shen Jieyuan may not live long.

"You look at the pharmacy, if a patient comes, ask him to wait."

"Doctor Wu, what about you?"

"Don't ask if you shouldn't."

Doctor Wu got up and went to the backyard of the pharmacy, and turned into another alley after a while.

Here, Cheng Xi, who came out of the pharmacy, looked at the word "Renxintang" thoughtfully, but turned around and became elated.

"Come on, let's go to the pork stall next stop!"

With so many ingredients, she can go home and stew pig's trotters as she likes.

Braised pig's trotters today, braised pig's trotters in braised sauce tomorrow, and spicy pig's trotters the day after, without repeating the same at all!

The pig's trotters that Cheng Xi had bought before were all put into the space, and the siblings only knew that they had braised pork but nothing else, so when Shen Xingqi watched her sister-in-law readily pay for a basket and take away, she fell into confusion again.

"Sister-in-law, this food is not delicious."

"Ok?"

"It's really not delicious. The stall owner usually can't sell it."

After she finished speaking, she nodded heavily to increase the credibility of her words.

Cheng Xi sighed, "Xiao Qiqi, you need to think more and use your brains when you get along with others in the future."

"Well, I remember."

"There is only one way to get along with me."

"What is it?"

"Don't think about anything, just watch the whole process with an expression of admiration."

"?"
