Chapter 20 Buying Rice 3
[-]
In the morning, Ke Hanxue saw that his father secretly divided half of his breakfast and heated it into the pot, so he knew that he was afraid that grandma and mother would not eat at noon, so he divided his own into half and heated it into the pot, so Now she doesn't have to worry that grandma and mother will be hungry, this steamed bun is reserved for grandma to try something new.

When the two of them arrived at the agreed place, Ke Jiangshi was already there with a cloth bag.

"Third Aunt, did you buy things so quickly?" Ke Hanxue asked with a smile.

"Well, I've bought it." Ke Jiangshi replied absent-mindedly.

Ke Jiangshi was reluctant to spend money, so she didn't buy many things. She was thinking about her two children, and there was no food at home. She must be starving, right?

"Third Aunt, have you had lunch yet?" Ke Hanxue asked again.

Ke Jiangshi came back to his senses, smiled lightly and said, "I'm not hungry, I'll eat when I go back."

Hearing what Ke Jiangshi said, Ke Hanxue took out the steamed bun that was going to be left to grandma and handed it to Ke Jiangshi: "Third Aunt, I can't eat the steamed bun my father bought for me, so I'll give it to you."

Ke Shuisheng was taken aback for a moment, he didn't even know that his daughter had left a steamed bun.

"No, I'm not hungry, take this steamed bun back to your mother." Ke Jiangshi refused to take it no matter what.

"Third Aunt, do you dislike that these are not meat buns?" Ke Hanxue pretended to be angry, knowing that Ke Jiangshi was embarrassed to ask for her own steamed buns.

"Nothing, I'm really not hungry!"

Ke Hanxue took Ke Jiangshi's hand, stuffed the steamed bun into Ke Jiangshi's hand, and said, "Third Aunt, if you don't dislike this steamed bun, eat it, and if you dislike it, throw it away!"

"This..." Ke Jiangshi looked at Ke Shuisheng.

"Xue'er asked you to eat it, so you ate it, isn't it just a steamed bun!" Ke Shuisheng said.

Hearing what Ke Shuisheng said, Ke Jiangshi didn't refuse anymore.

Watching Ke Jiangshi gently break the steamed bun in half, bite half into his mouth, and put the other half into his pocket, Ke Hanxue smiled, this must be reserved for the two children.

After Ke Jiangshi ate the steamed buns, they waited for a while before they saw Ke Xisheng and Ke Baosheng walking over with several bags each.

"Brother, you guys are so fast!" Ke Xisheng said with a smile.

"Have you had lunch?" Ke Shuisheng asked.

"I've eaten. My second brother and I went to eat a bowl of noodles. Have you eaten yet?" Ke Baosheng asked.

People with financial resources are different, they go to restaurants at every turn, Ke Hanxue complained.

"We've eaten too, let's go back." Ke Shuisheng said.

"Brother, we bought so many things, let's rent an ox cart and go back." Ke Baosheng suggested.

"Renting an ox cart costs tens of pennies, right?" Ke Jiangshi hesitated.

"Sister-in-law three, I will pay for your car." Ke Baosheng smiled lightly.

"How can it be done? I'll do it myself." Ke Jiangshi is also an honest person and doesn't want to take advantage of the fourth child.

"Third sister-in-law, didn't mother say that we should help each other after the family is separated? Don't hesitate, let's go." Ke Baosheng said as he picked up his bag and walked to the bullock cart parked in the center of the market.

Outside, Ke Baosheng obviously talked more than when he was at home.

"Brother, let's go." Ke Xisheng said and followed with his bag.

Ke Baosheng bargained with the coachman for a long time, before he talked about the fare to 45 Wen.

Sitting in the bullock cart, Ke Hanxue couldn't help but sigh: "It's still comfortable to sit in a chartered car!"

When I came here just now, twelve or three people were squeezed into an ox cart, and the ox cart wobbled all the way, Ke Hanxue was almost crushed.

"Hehe, that's not true, isn't spending a few more dollars just for comfort!" Ke Baosheng laughed.

It costs three pennies per person to go to the town by car from Xiangshui Village. If they buy so many things, if they want to bring them home in Xiangshui Village, they will be tired and collapsed on the way.

"By the way, Dad, I just wanted to ask you in Xiangshui Village. The coachman did that to those aunts. Why aren't those aunts angry?" This car is full of family members, so Ke Hanxue Asked out his doubts.

Ke Shuisheng smiled: "That's because there is only one bullock cart like Dasha in the villages near Xiangshui Village. If you don't want to walk, you have to take his bullock cart, so those aunts dare not speak up even if they are murdered." .”

Hearing what Ke Shuisheng said, an idea sprouted in Ke Hanxue's mind, but now is not the time to tell his father about this idea.

"If it were me, I'd rather walk than ride in his ox cart!" Ke Hanxue pouted.

Ke Jiangshi smiled and said: "Silly girl, you have to leave a way out for yourself in everything. Who can guarantee that one day you will not encounter some urgent matter. If the road is blocked, it will be too late to cry."

Well, Ke Hanxue admits that what the third aunt said makes sense, but she doesn't want to ride in that stupid bullock cart forever.

As soon as the ox cart stopped in front of Ke's house, several children in the family ran out.

"Father, did you buy me something delicious?" Ke Weijie looked at the bag in Ke Xisheng's hand as soon as he stepped forward.

"Hey, don't move around, there is oil and salt in it, so don't spill it." Ke Xisheng hurriedly protected the bag.

"Eat, eat, eat! You little bastard knows how to eat!" Ke Yu also came out, gave Ke Weijie a vicious look, and helped his man carry a bag into it.

Ke Weijie curled his lips, walked up to Ke Baosheng, and grinned again: "Uncle, did you buy us candy?"

"Yes!" Ke Xisheng said with a smile.

"Uncle, Uncle, I want to eat candy too!" Ke Hanqin, Ke Jiang's eight-year-old daughter, also tugged at Ke Baosheng's sleeve.

"Okay, you all have it!" Ke Baosheng smiled kindly, and he could see that he was very doting on the children.

"Qin'er, stop making trouble, wait for your uncle to move things into the house first."

Ke Jiangshi scolded her daughter lightly, and then Ke Hanqin let go of Ke Baosheng with a pout.

Ke Mengshi also came out to help Ke Baosheng carry things. Seeing that the old son had bought several bags of things, he opened them and was shocked.

"Baosheng, you're going back to town tomorrow, why do you still buy so much food?" Ke Meng looked at the meat, rice, and noodles in the bag, and couldn't help but babble.

"Mom, this branch says that you belong to me. I want to go to the town to do something. You will live and eat with my elder brother. Of course I have to pay my elder brother for some food." Ke Baosheng said with a smile.

Hearing what Ke Baosheng said, Ke Mengshi couldn't say anything more, and helped him carry the things in.

Ke Shuisheng heard Ke Baosheng's words, but he was a little displeased: "Baosheng, what are you talking about? Mother, I also have a share. If I have a bite to eat, I will naturally not starve my mother. How can I let you eat?" Give your mother something to eat?"

"Brother, don't be angry. Is it okay if I said something wrong? But I bought all these things. I will go to town tomorrow, and it will break if I leave it alone. You can take it first, and the big deal will be later. I just don’t pay it.” Ke Baosheng still smiled lightly.
