Chapter 37
As soon as this heart fell to the ground, Xu Lele also relaxed.

Since Sister Rui wanted to play, she simply got out of bed and hid in a place by the bed where Sister Rui could not see, and when she stretched her head to look around, she popped up suddenly and made all kinds of grimaces to scare her and confuse Sister Rui's memory. At the same time, Sister Rui couldn't stop laughing.

After a while, Mrs. Li pushed the door open with a smile and came in, "Look at how happy you two are, you heard it from afar, why don't you hurry up!"

After breakfast, Xu Lele, who wanted to go to the fields with her, heard that Mrs. Zhou said that she would take Mrs. Li to the county to buy some silk thread, so she immediately changed her mind and asked Mrs. Li to take her with her.

"Don't make trouble, it's not going out to play." Li Shi felt a headache.

"I'm not making trouble, mother, just take me with you." Xu Lele really wanted to go around to see if she could find any good business opportunities, and besides, she still wanted to find a pharmacy so that she could sell the ginseng.

"Go, go, anyway, you don't have anything urgent, so just bring Sister Le with you." Mrs. Sun helped to speak, and at least Mrs. Li agreed.

Before leaving, Mrs. Sun took another small bamboo basket and handed it to Mrs. Chen.

"This is the gall and skin of the worm from yesterday. You take the flower girl to the medicinal herb shop in the west of the city to sell it. The shopkeeper is pretty good, and they don't want to lower the price."

Xu Lele stared at the small bamboo basket and smiled. Isn't this exactly what she wanted to inquire about!
Zhou, who was listening next to her, saw Xu Lele's excited expression out of the corner of her eye, and joked, "No wonder Sister Le insists on following along. You can't lose Sister Le's share when we meet you, grandma."

Everyone laughed, Xu Lele just turned around at this moment, she didn't expect these things to be good at all!Are those snake gall and snake skin and ginseng worth her space? !

Of course, she couldn't say that, so she could only pretend to be angry and said: "I don't want all those things for my mother, I want to earn money by my own ability!"

Li patted her head affectionately, "Silly boy, isn't this what you earned back? When you sell the money, mother will keep it for you and make it a dowry in the future."

...No matter what her age, Xu Lele had no interest in getting married, so she pretended to be shy and ran out first.

"Okay, you guys go too, and come back earlier." Afraid of too much delay, Sun urged them to go back early.

In order to save money, the group did not go by bullock cart. Even if one person needs three Wen, but if there are too many people, it will cost a lot of money.

Many people in the surrounding fields were already busy, and some acquaintances saw them along the way and greeted them at the top of their voices. Zhou replied heartily to those people.

Qiu Huhu was still powerful, the wind blowing on her face was hot, and the air was filled with the fresh smell of mixed soil and grass fragrance. Xu Lele couldn't help but take a deep breath. This environment was enough to make her impetuous heart gradually settle down.

After walking for about three quarters of an hour, there were more people carrying loads and carts or walking with packages like them. There were more forks at the intersection, and it was also much wider.

There is also a bridge built with bluestone slabs across the river. After she walked on the bridge, she realized that the river water was only a shallow layer, and there were even dark riverbeds exposed in some places, like shoals.

Continuing to walk, Xu Lele inadvertently found that there were quite a few people with families. Although they were dressed neatly, they were as sallow and thin as she was before, and they were also lethargic and lack of energy.

Before she could figure out what these people were doing, she heard Chen sigh, "I'm afraid this year will be difficult again, it's been more than two months, and it hasn't rained yet."
