Farmhouse Small God Bowl

Chapter 58 Set Vegetables
Not in a hurry to buy, Zhou Xiaobai first walked around the whole street. There are really not many vegetables in this summer, nothing more than cucumbers and eggplants.Zhou Xiaobai inquired about the price, but luckily it wasn't too expensive, it was within her range.

This green cucumber looks juicy. Zhou Xiaobai thought that it would be good to eat raw, so he squatted down and picked a few good-looking ones. Count two catties, and only charge her three pennies.

Zhou Xiaobai weighed it in the same way. This aunt was really sincere, and it must have been too much. She paid the money happily, thanked her, and then picked it up and left.

I went to buy a few more eggplants for three Wen.Zhou Xiaobai still wants to buy some more, but thinking about the small bag at home, he still forgets it. These two dishes are almost enough for his family to eat. If you buy too much, it will not be fresh at home.

With the vegetables in hand, Zhou Xiaobai went to beat another two catties of bran oil.After passing through, I am really not used to this food. All I eat here is bran oil beaten from rice husks.What kind of corn oil, peanut oil, I have never heard of it.Even lard is said to be available only after buying pork during the Chinese New Year.

Zhou Xiaobai sighed. After returning here, the quality of life has dropped a lot, and eating a full stomach is a recent thing. As for snacks, let alone talk about it. Let's talk about making a fortune first.

As the pillar of the family, although Zhou Xiaobai had money in his arms, he didn't dare to spend it recklessly, thinking about what else was missing in the family.It seems that there are not many condiments at home, but this is necessary, so Zhou Xiaobai went to weigh the various condiments again.

Walking to the gate of the city, I saw a circle of children, surrounded by a shopkeeper, rushing to buy candy.Zhou Xiaobai's mind moved again, and when he asked the price, the candy was really not cheap, only two yuan for a penny.

Thinking about Chen Mo at home, Zhou Xiaobai bought it anyway.Just as I was about to take out the money, I heard a burst of crying behind me.

It turned out to be an old woman carrying a basket, squatting on the ground and crying, and the vegetables in the basket were scattered all over the floor.Seeing this, Zhou Xiaobai quickly handed over the money, then turned around and helped the aunt clean up.Zhou Xiaobai was amazed by this arrangement, for the mother's basket contained tomatoes.This was the first time Zhou Xiaobai saw him here.

On the road where people come and go, the aunt saw that Zhou Xiaobai was helping to pick it up, so she quickly packed it up, for fear that a child would step on it.The two of them were together, and in the blink of an eye, everything was cleaned up, but unfortunately, some of them were broken.

"Girl, thank you." The aunt took Zhou Xiaobai's hand and thanked her repeatedly.

Zhou Xiaobai was more interested in her tomato, "Ma'am, what is your dish called? Why is it so rare?"

Hearing what the aunt said, Zhou Xiaobai finally understood. It turned out that her relatives brought the seeds, and it was indeed a precious thing, but no one here knew about it, so she went to the dew collection early in the morning. Sell ​​it, it didn't mean she was overwhelmed by the crowd just now.The tomatoes were also broken a lot. Although they couldn't be sold, it made her feel very distressed.

There are only two people in the eldest mother's family, she and the little girl. There is no labor in the family, so they live by this kind of a la carte garden.Zhou Xiaobai thought this was just right, he had no food at home.This Mrs. Yang also lives nearby, in the next village.It would be more convenient if Mrs. Yang could order food for her family for a few days.

When I told Aunt Yang about this idea, Aunt Yang was immediately grateful.But Zhou Xiaobai said in advance that his family is not a rich family, as long as some ordinary vegetables are enough, so there is only four cents a day for vegetables.

But even so, Aunt Yang is very happy, this saves her from running to the town to see the sky, and she can also do some handicrafts in her spare time to supplement the family.

The two of them agreed so that Aunt Yang would go to deliver some seasonal vegetables to Zhou Xiaobai every few days.Zhou Xiaobai asked what kind of deposit he would give, but was repeatedly rejected. People from the same village couldn't believe it.Aunt Yang insisted on stuffing a few big red tomatoes, saying that she wanted to give Zhou Xiaobai a taste.

After telling Aunt Yang the location of her home, Zhou Xiaobai went home, and after going out for a while, she managed to get things done.

Back home, Chen Mo hadn't come back yet.The baskets in the yard were not there, Zhou Xiaobai reckoned that he must have gone to get food for the chickens again.

Going to the chicken pen to take a look, this chick is quite happy, it seems that Chen Mo has raised it well.Two more warm eggs were taken out of the nest.Originally, Lion Head and Dongpo Rou stood upright at the door of the chicken coop, as if guarding the chicken coop and not telling others to move.But as soon as Zhou Xiaobai came over, he quickly ran away, thinking about it, he still hated Zhou Xiaobai for saying that he wanted to eat them.

To be honest, Zhou Xiaobai really doesn't have such thoughts now.The main thing is that they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and they don't have to eat and beat their teeth for sacrifices.But seeing their actions, I was really angry and funny, "Sister, I won't eat you now, come back quickly." Those two seemed to understand Zhou Xiaobai's words, and came over hesitantly, Seeing that Zhou Xiaobai didn't make any movement, he stood upright and guarded the chicken coop again.

It was the first time for Zhou Xiaobai to feel that these two things were not bad, they were quite human.Now it seems that it is okay to use it to look at the house.

Putting down his things, Zhou Xiaobai looked at the sky and it was getting late, and planned to do something by himself first.It's a pity that this kitchen idiot is still a kitchen idiot, and the fire hasn't been lit for a long time.Chen Mo, who had just arrived home, looked at it with a "puchi" smile, and drove Zhou Xiaobai out of the kitchen again.

Seeing the green vegetables in the kitchen, Chen Mo said straight to Zhou Xiaobai that it was too wasteful.It's good to say that you can eat something, but you still waste money on other things.What Zhou Xiaobai wanted to say to him about balanced nutrition was definitely unclear, so he had to give up.

"Chenmo, by the way, I'm asking Mrs. Yang from the village next door to deliver some green vegetables to my house. Remember to give her four fen a day and it will be done." I explained it to Chen Mo.

Unexpectedly, this remark made Chen Mo angry, "Sister, you don't spend your money like this. It's four pennies to see the sky. You also opened this garden. In a few days, your family will not There is also food, why do you insist on spending such a waste of money?"

Zhou Xiaobai couldn't compromise this time, "Chen Mo, you don't understand. How did you just eat the same thing? Whose family only eats this cornmeal. You just eat less of it, so you get sick easily. .You listen to my sister, you can’t save the money that should be spent. Besides, this sister has money, so you don’t have to worry about it.” Zhou Xiaobai gave the remaining taels of silver to Chen Mo.
