When I was just reborn, I was sold for 300 yuan.
Chapter 23 Thanks
"She's just too ugly." Erlai's mother sucked her teeth. She wanted to find Su Qing for her son, but Su Qing's appearance was really...
Ouch, that scar on her left cheek is so ugly no matter how you look at it. It would be surprising if her family could still like it.
But the girl has 500 yuan in her hand. If her family can get this money, won’t it be possible to find any kind of daughter-in-law they want in the future?
No, I have to talk to her family about it later.
Seeing the greed in Erlai's mother's eyes, Lu Chunhua could see it. She smiled, but before she could say anything, a woman next to her laughed and said, "Erlai's mother, you still think Su Qing is ugly, but you don't even look at your own son, the one with the big buck teeth and squinty eyes, he looks exactly like you."
"Go away, go away. What about my son? He's a man and he won't have trouble finding a wife." Erlai's mother waved her hand unhappily. Her family was just a little poor. If they had money, those girls would definitely rush to throw themselves at Erlai.
"Hahaha, right, no worries."
It would be strange if he wasn't worried. He's already in his twenties and hasn't been able to find a wife. He's become a problem in the village. Isn't he worried?
What a liar!
Su Qing returned home, put away the things she had bought, and made herself lunch. After lunch, she took the thank-you gifts and delivered them to each of the ten families.
The four aunts and sisters who helped her at the beginning each gave her one pound of fruit candy and two ounces of white sugar.
The families of Zhao Youcai and Wang Xuehong each gave one pound of fruit candy and three ounces of brown sugar.
The remaining four stores each sell one pound of fruit candy.
After the distribution, Su Qing delivered the gifts to each family one by one and thanked them at the same time. Those families tried to refuse but when they saw that they couldn't refuse anymore, they accepted the gifts. Naturally, they had a better impression of Su Qing.
Wang Xuehong was not at home, but her wife Pang Xiaofang was. When she saw Su Qing sending something over, she did not refuse and accepted it with a smile. She also praised Su Qing a few words. Su Qing exchanged some greetings and then went to Zhao Youcai's house again.
Zhao Youcai was at home. When he saw the fruit candies and brown sugar Su Qing sent over, he frowned and said, "You are a child, you can't be so extravagant. Take them back quickly. You need to take good care of your body. Keep these candies for yourself."
Su Qing smiled and said to Zhao Youcai, "Captain, you know that my grandparents gave me the 500 yuan they earned from work. I am not short of money. This time I was able to split it with the old house because of your help. Otherwise, I would not be able to split it by myself. These are just my little gifts. Please accept them."
Zhao Youcai's wife Tang Suqin smiled and said, "Since it is a kind gift from the child, just accept it."
Zhao Youcai glared at his wife and said, "It's not easy for Su Qing."
"It's not easy, so take care of her more often." Tang Suqin took the candy with a smile, went to the kitchen and got a bowl of steamed dried fish, and said to Su Qing: "These are what the boys at home caught in the river. They taste pretty good. You can take them back and eat them."
Su Qing quickly declined: "Aunt Zhao, please keep these for your family."
There is a water bubble next to Lihua Village. It is not very deep and is surrounded by reeds. Wild ducks often lay eggs in the reeds, and there are some wild fish in the water bubble. Children in the village often like to go to the water bubble to catch fish and pick up wild duck eggs, which they bring back to make a dish for their family.
However, the wild fish in the water bubbles are very cunning and difficult to catch. If you can catch one three or four times out of ten, you are lucky.
"And here's something else. Take it. I made this dried fish saltier so it can last longer. You can eat it with porridge or something like that later." Tang Suqin was a quick-witted person. She stuffed the bowl of steamed dried fish into Su Qing's hand and said, "Besides, the candies you sent are also precious. If you don't want these dried fish, then take them back."
"Don't." Su Qing had no choice but to accept it after seeing Tang Suqin say that. "Thank you, Aunt Zhao. I'll return the bowl to you later."
"Okay, don't worry." Tang Suqin looked at Su Qing's yellow and thin appearance and sighed, "Fortunately, we have separated now. It's better to live a good life in the future than anything else."
"Yeah." Su Qing smiled and nodded: "I will."
Zhao Youcai coughed and said, "If your grandparents ever pick on you again, come and tell us."
"Yes, all right, Captain."
"There's more." Zhao Youcai took a look at the brown sugar. He knew that Su Qing didn't have any brown sugar tickets. He knew where she bought the brown sugar from. However, no one would say such things. After all, everyone has gone to the black market to exchange things. If they tell others, they will be in trouble. But Zhao Youcai still wanted to remind them: "Be careful about everything and be more cautious. There are some places that you should go to as little as possible. Do you know?"
"Okay, I got it, Captain. I will be more careful." Su Qing responded with a smile. It seems that this captain is not a rigid person.
"Well, that's good to know." Zhao Youcai nodded.
After staying at the Zhao family for a while, Su Qing said goodbye and went home. She put the bowl of steamed dried fish into her own bowl, washed the bowl and sent it back to the Zhao family.
She left home early this morning and has been busy ever since. After returning from Zhao's house, Su Qing locked the courtyard door and went back to her room to have a good sleep.
After waking up, Su Qing felt refreshed. She looked at the time and it was already mid-afternoon. At this moment, all the villagers were working in the fields. She had taken a day off and did not have to go to work, so she planned to make herself a good meal and reward herself.
Today she bought a pound of pork belly, two pork ribs, and two pounds of pork fat from the black market. She decided to process the pork fat first, and then cut half a pound of pork belly to make a stew of pork belly with mushrooms and potatoes, and then make some bone soup. It would be a delicious meal without having to use it as a staple food.
Thinking about eating stewed pork belly soon, Su Qing felt her saliva was secreting crazily. God knows how long it has been since she had eaten normal stewed meat. In her previous life, ever since the apocalypse broke out, everything was turned upside down, order collapsed, and supplies were in short supply. At that time, she seemed to have been doing only one thing: trying to stay alive.
The quality of life, the delicious food, the comfort, all of them exist only in memories.
She had been in this world for two or three days and had not had time to eat a delicious meal. Now, she could finally eat stewed meat. Su Qing was so happy that she was determined to live a prosperous life in the future.
He was in a good mood and his hands and feet were more nimble. Soon, the aroma of boiling lard could be smelled from the Su family's side.
