Chapter 4 Big Buy
After the meal, Mo Shengming couldn't help Mo Xiaoxiao's stalking, so he had to take her to the field, and he had to walk along the road while telling her not to run too far, but to stay not far away and watch, otherwise the next time I won't bring her here and so on.

Although Mo Xiaoxiao felt that her ears were getting callused, she didn't say it out. After all, they also cared about themselves.

Seeing such a large piece of dry land that Mo Shengming and the others needed to cultivate, Mo Xiaoxiao felt very distressed.The thoughts in my heart are becoming more and more firm, but if you want to earn money first, you have to look for some treasures first. Since ancient times, farmers have relied on mountains to eat mountains and drink water. There is a mountain not far from here. No one rushes to the deeper places in the mountains, because there are more wild animals in them. Except for hunting, ordinary people really don't have the guts to go in.

It's just that this mountain is just a piece of gold ingots in Mo Xiaoxiao's eyes. She is thinking about when she will go there secretly to look for it. A big deal.

Seeing Xiao Xiao staring at the mountain not far away, Mo Shengming seemed to have a look in his eyes that he couldn't understand, but he could tell from Xiao Xiao's face that she was yearning for the mountain. Thinking of this, his heart tightened, and he looked at Xiao Xiao directly. Xiao said: "Xiao Xiao likes mountains very much? Do you want to go there to play?"

Xiaoxiao was still immersed in her own thoughts, and when she heard someone ask such a question, she nodded without thinking too much. This made Mo Shengming, a father, so anxious that she even spoke in a louder voice unconsciously. I only heard him say loudly: "Don't go, you can't even think about it."

Mo Xiaoxiao was stunned by his tone of voice. Seeing her like this, Mo Shengming regretted what she had done just now, so he lowered his voice and coaxed: "Xiaoxiao, dad didn't mean to scare you, but It’s really not safe on the mountain, think about you, a six-year-old girl, who ran to the mountain alone, if something happens, what do you tell your parents to do, don’t you think so?”

Just now when Mo Xiaoxiao heard her father yelling at her, her nose was so sore that she was about to cry. She planned to ignore him after getting angry, but later she heard Mo Shengming lower her voice and explain to her that she was afraid that she would be alone. It is not safe for people to run on the mountain, think about it, although the soul is Mo Xiaoxiao in her 20s, but now she is a six-year-old girl, if she encounters any jackals, tigers and leopards on the mountain, it can only be a wild beast plate of Chinese food.

After he figured it out, he was no longer angry, and just said sullenly: "Then if daddy goes to the mountains, can he take Xiaoxiao with him?"

Mo Shengming saw his daughter looking at him pitifully, as if she would cry if he said no later, his heart softened, and he nodded in agreement, but he still asked: "When the time comes You can follow, but you can't run around, you know?"

"Enn, Xiaoxiao understands, daddy is going to help the brothers finish the work in the field so that we can go back early."

Mo Shengming pinched Xiaoxiao's face, and said with a smile: "Then daddy is off to work, you have to be good." Seeing Mo Xiaoxiao nod, he went back to work in his field.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the market, and Mo Xiaoxiao got up early.Helping Mrs. Lin to make a good start, he and Mo Shengming set off to the market after dinner.Mrs. Lin gave Mo Shengming five hundred Wen, and went to market with a bamboo basket on his back.

When she arrived at the market, Mo Xiaoxiao found that her eyes could barely see. The restaurants, teahouses, mansions and shops were lined up in an orderly manner, and the vendors on the street were also selling a wide variety of goods, and their cries were still ringing in her ears.In the market, there were people, farmers, businessmen, old and young, women and children, horse riders, sedan chair riders, horse drivers, buyers and sellers, bustling and bustling, and Mo Xiaoxiao was also infected by them, and the corners of her mouth were always curled up.

Mo Xiaoxiao looked left and right, while Mo Shengming was holding her hand and walking towards Xipu. First, he helped hand over the embroideries embroidered by the eldest daughter and Mrs. Lin, and then received new ones. Goods go back.Mo Xiaoxiao helped put the things in the bamboo basket behind Mo Shengming and walked out of Xipu.

After leaving Xipu, Mo Xiaoxiao thought that her family was running out of food, so she wanted to ask her father, Mo Shengming, to buy some rice later.

So she went to the place where the rice was sold by herself, and put several large bags on the ground, which contained japonica rice, brown rice, indica rice, as well as flour, cornmeal, cornmeal, wheat flour, glutinous rice and so on.

Mo Xiaoxiao was dazzled by the variety of things she saw.

I think the life of the residents in the town is good, and these things are often bought for food.

Seeing her current situation, Mo Xiaoxiao can only buy some cheaper types first. Fine rice, japonica rice, indica rice, and millet are all she can look up to now, and she can only buy them when she makes money first. Eat rice every meal, so that the brothers and sisters in the family who need nutrition can grow well.

So I can only focus on the brown rice, the corners of the mouth are not drawn, this brown rice is really rough, it is not as good as rice and other types, and the treatment is also very rough, but there is no way, now I have to buy this kind of rice, Who makes it the cheapest.

Fine rice costs twenty cents a catty, japonica rice costs ten cents a catty, indica rice costs eight cents a catty, and corn costs seven cents a catty.

And brown rice only costs three pennies a catty. Seeing this price, Mo Xiaoxiao almost burst into tears. Although the brown rice is very rough, it is rice after all, and it can be eaten. In fact, the most important thing is that it only needs Three pennies a catty, only three pennies!

So, she pointed to the brown rice and looked at Mo Shengming and said, "Daddy, let's just buy brown rice, it's cheaper."

Looking at Xiaoxiao's sensible face, Mo Shengming only felt guilty in his heart. If it weren't for his uselessness, why would his wife and daughter suffer with him? Thinking of this made him, a big man, have red eyes, and nodded to Mo Xiaoxiao He choked up and said, "Okay, let's just buy this rice and buy more."

Thinking about getting rid of the 150 Wen I spent before, I still have 350 Wen on my body now. There are a lot of people in my family, so I can just buy a thirty or forty catties, and then I can buy some other low-priced grains and let the children make them for them. Let's try it.

Let the boss weigh 35 catties of brown rice, and then look at the cornmeal, which is divided into coarse cornmeal and fine cornmeal.

From Mo Xiaoxiao's point of view, cornmeal can be made into a lot of delicious food. In her previous life, she liked to cook delicious food. Now in her eyes, cornmeal has become porridge made from stick noodles, pancakes and steamed buns, cornmeal steamed cakes, and cornmeal steamed dumplings. Cornmeal omelette, cornmeal batter, etc., just thinking about it makes my mouth water, begging Mo Shengming to buy another ten catties of coarse cornmeal.

Because the surrounding farmers know how to grow corn, the cornmeal is not expensive. The fine cornmeal costs six renminbi a catty, and the coarse cornmeal only costs three renminbi a catty.

After buying these items, Mo Shengming dragged Xiaoxiao out of this area. In fact, Mo Xiaoxiao couldn't walk when she saw the flour before, but she gave up after thinking about the current situation at home.
