I, the one in the heavens, am here to protect my bottom line in all realms.

Chapter 12 Lively Purchasing
  Zhao Lihua looked at the size and nodded affirmatively.

"Auntie, I went shopping. I haven't been out in the past three years. There are too many things missing at home."

"Okay, go quickly."

Since two baskets were sent out, Zhang Chengyuan simply carried the remaining baskets.

While walking and stopping along the way, in addition to the men and women selling agricultural and sideline products on the roadside, there were also many hawkers walking through the streets. They also stopped here to sell goods.

Zhang Chengyuan joined in the fun and went to look at every stall. For a moment, he felt that his eyes were full of them. This was new and that was new.

Zhang Chengyuan put down the bamboo basket, squatted in front of an old woman's stall holding the basket, and asked with bright eyes: "Grandma, can I take a look at this thing?"

The old woman smiled brightly and said, "Okay, okay, just take a look."

With permission, Zhang Chengyuan picked them up one by one and looked at them. The old woman was selling wooden hairpins, combs and other small items.

If it hadn't been for seeing this, Zhang Chengyuan wouldn't have thought of buying this thing. She still had a piece of bamboo stuck in her head.

Moreover, she hadn't combed her hair in the past few days. She always tied it up by pulling it with her hands.

After looking at them again and again, she felt that every one of them was beautiful, all round and cute, and she wanted them all.

"Mother-in-law, how did you sell this?"

The old woman's smile became even brighter when she heard this, and she hurriedly introduced: "This kind of simple style is Tongtong Liwen, and those with complicated patterns are Sanwen."

In addition to combs, hairpins, earrings and bracelets, the old lady’s stall also has small wooden swords and small dolls.

Zhang Chengyuan was interested in hairpins and hairpins. She thought about it and said, "My mother-in-law gave me a pair of each kind of hairpins and hairpins, as well as these two bracelets. How much do these four combs cost in total?"

"Sixty-four articles."

Zhang Chengyuan took out a bunch of copper coins and counted out thirty-six coins. He handed the rest to the old woman and said, "Can you give us two little dolls?"

Zhang Chengyuan just asked casually, but to his surprise, the old woman agreed with a smile on her face and let her choose as she pleased.

Hearing this, Zhang Chengyuan stopped being polite, took two of his favorites, thanked the old lady, and left happily after seeing the old lady count the money.

She continued shopping and saw a young shopkeeper selling needlework and various embroidery products. She immediately ran over to take a look.

Various purse handkerchiefs, as well as hairpins, headbands, and lipsticks, she thought were all very exquisite. She asked about the price, bought two purses, four needles, and two bundles of black and white thread, and headed to the next stall.

This stall belongs to a young woman with two and a half-year-old children. They sell embroidered shoes, which look pretty good.

Zhang Chengyuan looked at the dirty shoes on her feet, squatted down and picked them decisively, and finally bought all the shoes in her size...

Zhang Chengyuan visited the entire market, and the money in her hand was almost exhausted. But at this moment, not only did she have two full baskets, but she also added two new baskets, both of which were also full. The basket was also full.

She still had some unfinished thoughts, but there was nothing she could do, she could only take back so much.

When she returned to the previous place, she saw Zhao Lihua packing her things. She sped over and shouted, "Auntie."

Zhao Lihua turned her head when she heard the sound: "Hey~ I'm back. I'm going to find you. Have you bought everything?"

Zhang Chengyuan smiled and was obviously in a good mood: "Well, I have bought everything. Auntie, are we going back this time?"

While Zhao Lihua continued to clean up, she took the time to answer her: "Yes, let's hurry up and go back early."

After Zhao Lihua finished packing her things, Zhang Chengyuan went back and forth with her.

Zhao Lihua saw that Zhang Chengyuan had brought more things than when he came, and wondered if she could help carry some, so she said, "How about I help you carry some?"

Zhang Chengyuan shook his head and thought it was okay, shook his head and refused: "Auntie, no need, I'm okay."

"Okay, when you're tired, call Auntie for help." Zhang Chengyuan nodded in agreement.

Soon we arrived at the bullock cart. Old Li Tou was lying on the bullock cart with his face covered with a straw hat, swinging his legs and humming an unknown tune.

Zhao Lihua slapped Lao Li on the head unceremoniously: "Get up and start working."

Lao Li was startled. He suddenly pulled off the straw hat on his face, sat up and yelled: "Then you little brat are scaring me!"

"Who are you scolding?"

Zhao Lihua also raised her voice and spoke.

When Old Li heard the voice and saw someone again, he was not so angry anymore. He rolled his eyes and said in a bad tone: "Why are you, an old guy, scaring me to death?"

Zhao Lihua was minding her own business climbing up the bullock cart. When she heard what Old Man Li said, she pushed him off the bullock cart unhappily and retorted: "You are an old guy. If you don't know how to speak, just shut up. Don't look like you are the only one who has it." Mouth."

"Hey, I'm not the only one who has a mouth. No one from all over the country can ask for help from me. I can't do it without this mouth."

Zhao Lihua rolled her eyes at him, put away her things, and went to help Zhang Chengyuan without quarreling with him anymore.

When Old Li Tou saw this, he also helped him, and at the same time asked curiously: "Zhao Yaomei'er, your daughter? Why haven't you seen her before?"

"Do you still remember Orion Zhang?"

"His family has grown so big in the blink of an eye. The last time I saw her, she was still a little girl. Is this an act of filial piety?"

"Ah."

Old Li Tou looked at Zhang Chengyuan for a few times and sighed: "He is also a poor child."

After saying that, he didn't speak again.

After Zhang Chengyuan also sat down on the bullock cart, Zhao Lihua took out the vegetable dumplings, divided one into each person and said, "First, let's make a cushion."

Lao Litou took it without any courtesy and started eating. However, Zhang Chengyuan did not bother to dig out the two she gave him in the morning and the three remaining white flour pancakes from his basket.

She followed Zhao Lihua's example and gave each of them one. She smiled at them and said, "It's cold, don't dislike it."

Zhao Lihua wanted it, so she quickly refused. Lao Litou had no choice but to hand the cake to Zhao Lihua because of the difference between men and women.

Zhao Lihua rolled her eyes at him, took it and wanted to return it to Zhang Chengyuan.

Zhang Chengyuan was not used to fighting with others. He moved a little further away and said, "Auntie, please don't fight with me. I'm really not used to this. Besides, auntie, I'm still young and don't understand many things. I'm still counting on you elders." If you help me, I will show you my filial piety in advance.

Besides, just this time. "

Zhao Lihua thought about it and let it go, and just said: "Okay, if anything happens in the future, you can come to Auntie."

Zhang Chengyuan smiled and said, "Well, don't worry, Auntie, I won't be polite."

Old Li Tou took the pancake that Zhao Lihua returned, took a bite with a smile and said, "I had a good meal today. If you need help with anything in the future, please let me know."

Zhang Chengyuan responded with a smile, silently chewing on the vegetable dumplings. It was a bit grating and had no taste, but it had a unique fragrance. It was okay to grind her teeth occasionally, but she couldn't eat it as a staple food, so it was just right to pass the time now.

Finally, after finishing the vegetable dumplings, Zhang Chengyuan rubbed her cheeks because of pain in her cheeks. Looking at the sparsely filled bullock cart, she looked up at the sky, not knowing when she would be able to return.

While she was chanting, Lao Litou began to greet Lao Niu and leave.

Seeing this, Zhang Chengyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stuffed the remaining vegetable dumplings and pancakes into the basket.
