Chapter 53 Aunt Chen

The simple and honest boy had a sullen face, which was a little frightening.

The women were dazed at first, but later realized that the Su family had a good relationship with Wang Taoqing, and Wang Taoqing was Chen Yuanhai's eldest sister-in-law.

There was only one bullock cart in the village, and they had to go back in the afternoon, so they didn't dare to offend Chen Yuanhai.

It's not like they didn't park the ox cart at the gate of the city before, and the wives of the Wang family got off the ox cart immediately, dragging the second daughter-in-law of the Wang family who covered her face and sobbed softly, and fled.

The others had long been eager to leave the Asura field as soon as possible, get off the bullock cart quickly, and head straight for the city gate.

Chen Yuanhai's expression softened immediately, and he became that honest and honest young man again.

"Sister-in-law of the Gu family, are you okay?"

Su Mo shook her head, she didn't suffer at all.

She looked at the woman who hadn't left and blinked suspiciously. She didn't recognize this Aunt Chen.

"you are?"

Aunt Chen grinned, her eyes were full of creases, her complexion was sallow, but her eyes were piercing.

His eyes swept over Su Mo's pretty face, and his voice unconsciously softened, as if the woman who cursed just now was not her.

"You can just call me Aunt Chen. My son, Chen Liduan, helped you drag wild boars up the mountain before."

Speaking of Chen Liduan, Su Mo was somewhat impressed.

Chen Liduan looked at the tall and strong man, but he was shy. At that time, the wild pork was given to him, but the village chief would not have dared to accept it, and he kept thanking him after accepting it.

Su Mo had a good impression of Chen Liduan, and with the help of Aunt Chen just now, she also had a good impression of Aunt Chen.

"Aunt Chen, thank you for your help just now."

Su Mo's beautiful fox eyes are slightly curved, with a smile on the corner of the eye, spring in the eyebrows, the whole person is as delicate and beautiful as a blooming peach blossom.

Aunt Chen, who was watching, felt her heart pounding for some reason.

Oh, this young lady of the Gu family is too pretty.

Aunt Chen is not from Luoshan Village, but from the coastal county.

There is a shop in her natal family, and she is the only daughter in the family, so it can be said that she was spoiled and spoiled.

However, this person has no ambition, but only likes the beautiful person.

Chen Yuelin, Chen Liduan's father, was poor and white back then, but he was fair-skinned and handsome, just like the handsome scholar in the drama.

Aunt Chen caught sight of each other, and learned that both parents of Chen Yuelin's family died, and she was alone, and she didn't even want a betrothal gift.

Her parents couldn't resist, agreed to this marriage, and gave a lot of dowry for her daughter to take over. It can be said to be the No. 1 poverty alleviation.

After marriage, Aunt Chen gritted her teeth in order to keep her face for her husband, and took care of all the big and small things in the family. From a spoiled and spoiled girl, she became a bride who can go to the hall and go to the kitchen.

And Chen Yuelin is also well aware of his wife's dedication, the two have always been like newlyweds, loving each other.

Don't look at Aunt Chen who is over [-] years old this year, and there is a ten-year-old old girl under her knee.

"Miss Gu family, you are being polite. I should be the one thanking you. You gave Li Duan so much wild pork last month."

Aunt Chen's parents had passed away a few years ago, and the business of that shop had declined. Aunt Chen tried many methods to no avail, and the family had six mouths to support, and life became difficult.

The wild pork that Su Mo sent to Chen Li last month not only relieved the hunger of the children in the family, but also saved some money.

Aunt Chen wanted to thank her a long time ago, but there were too many things at home, and the shop was also preparing to sell, so she had no time to go there.

This meeting happened, and seeing that Su Mo was being bullied, he offered to help.

Chen Yuanhai on the side also came over, raised his hand and patted the wooden board of the bullock cart, smiling so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes.

"Auntie, sister-in-law of the Gu family, it's getting late, come up quickly, I'll take you into the city."

Didn't you say you can't go to the city?
Su Mo was slightly startled, seeing Chen Yuanhai scratching his head in embarrassment, he immediately understood.

"Then trouble you."

She smiled slightly and got into the bullock cart.

Aunt Chen didn't hesitate, she sat on the car while holding onto the floor.

Aunt Chen went to the county today to sell the shop, so she left immediately after entering the city.

Su Mo was thinking about the three children in the family, and had to rush back at noon, so she didn't exchange pleasantries.

Seeing the prosperity of Huzhou Prefecture, it is inevitable that the streets in Haiyan County are deserted. Su Mo walked in the direction he remembered, and soon arrived at the place where poultry was sold.

There are no fixed stalls here, but several bamboo cages are placed directly on the land, with chickens, ducks, and geese inside.

The seller put a small table to sit aside, and greeted people when they came.

Su Mo doesn't like geese, geese are too fierce.

Before the end of the world, the goose at home once pecked at the mother's hand.

After the end of the world, the geese mutated, and the serrated teeth in their mouths were strengthened, and they could bite off human limbs with one bite. She almost suffered a disadvantage from the mutated geese.

She walked to one of the stalls by instinct and asked, "Auntie, how do you sell chicken and duck cubs?"

"Seven cents a piece, my chickens and ducks have been raised for a while, and they can find their own food, which is very easy to feed.

If you buy a lot, I'll give you a bag of rice husks, and I'll give you a bamboo basket to put them in. "

Su Mo looked at the little boy in the bamboo cage, he was indeed quite strong, and the price was reasonable.

From the corner of his eye, he noticed the hen beside him, with thick, smooth feathers and less stray hairs, soft comb and not too bright color, it was an old hen.

Next to the bamboo cage, there was a bamboo basket filled with eggs. There were not many eggs, and they should have been laid in the past two days.

After contemplating for a moment, Su Mo said: "There are six chickens and six ducks each. Weigh these two hens, and I want eggs too."

For dinner tomorrow, one hen will be stewed and the other will be stir-fried.

Eggs are cooked for the children every morning to supplement protein.

"okay."

The mother-in-law looked happy and stood up.

She couldn't straighten her back, she was hunched over, picked up the scale and weighed the two old hens.

"A total of six catties and seven taels, this old hen is twelve cents a catty, which is eighty cents.

A total of 84 Wen for six chickens and six ducks.

There are 24 eggs in total, which is 24 Wen, which is 180 Bawen. "

Su Mo didn't bargain, took out two slings of money from his pocket, took out twelve copper coins, and handed them over.

The mother-in-law quickly stretched out her hands into cups, took the money, and put it into the small bamboo basket at her feet.

Immediately, he took out four small bamboo baskets from the big basket behind him, one each for chicks, ducklings, two old hens, and eggs.

The hemp rope on the side of the bamboo basket can be directly carried by hand, and the inside is covered with straw, so you don't have to worry about the excretion of chickens and ducks, and you don't have to worry about the eggs breaking.

"Ma'am take it."

The old woman bent her back, put the bamboo basket and the burlap bag containing the rice husks in front of the bamboo basket, and the smile on her face never stopped.

Those who sell eggs do not sell hens is a truth that they all understand in this business, but she can't help it. The grandson of the family is sick and needs money to buy medicine.

The crops in the field were not ready yet, so I had no choice but to sell the chickens and ducks first, and then rely on my son to weave bamboo products to earn some money, which can last until the autumn harvest.

"Thank you."

Su Mo smiled back, held the hemp rope, and left slowly with two bamboo baskets in each hand.

After buying the poultry, Su Mo went to the butcher shop and bought two catties of pork. Gu Xingnian liked to eat pork ribs, so he also bought two pork ribs.

Then there are vegetables, dried vegetables, melon seeds and peanuts and other snacks. By the way, I went to Fang Yue's and asked her to come over for dinner tomorrow. Fang Yue naturally agreed happily.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Su Mo waved goodbye on the grounds that he was driving the ox cart back. When he was approaching the place where the ox cart was parked, he ran into a seller of candied haws and stopped to buy three bunches of candied haws.
