The fierce peasant woman is busy farming

Yuan Mo was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and immediately stepped forward and picked it up.

This shop owner is dishonest. Cotton is very light and two kilograms can make a large bag. Are they trying to smuggle heavy objects in?

The waiter quickly put down the scale, came over to take the package, and said with a smile:

"I'm sorry, this is the boss's stuff, it got in, give it to me."

"what is this?"

"Give it to me. I won't sell this to you."

"What is it? It can't be something heavy, right?"

"No, no, give it to me and I'll weigh the cotton for you."

The waiter refused to give in.

This aroused Yuan Mo's curiosity even more.

He was originally an honest farmer, but he was very tall with a fair complexion. Although his clothes were shabby, at first glance he looked like a scholar.

The waiter was overwhelmed by the momentum and had to give in. He said:

"No, we really don't want to weigh it. These are cotton seeds. Our shopkeeper brought them to the boss."

“Cotton seeds?”

Yuan Mo's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked:

"Will you sell this?"

Zhou Yue looked at Yuan Mo and knew that he was obsessed with farming.

Since cotton is so expensive, it’s not impossible to grow some cotton on the dry land at home.

She remembered that cotton likes drought and sunlight and doesn't like wet places.

No one grows cotton here, but you can give it a try since the dry land produces very little anyway.

If the trial planting is successful, it will be a way out for agriculture.

Wheat and corn can continue to be planted on irrigated land so as not to affect the production of staple food.

Having made up his mind, Zhou Yue decided to help Yuan Mo buy the cotton seeds.

As the waiter spoke, he opened several other bags of cotton and rummaged around, pulling out a bag of cotton seeds from each one.

The shopkeeper said that there was a bag of cotton seeds in each cotton bag, and asked him to take it out in advance because that was what the boss wanted.

Don’t sell it to customers without knowing the reason. It would be bad if they ask you to take it back, as it will affect your reputation.

He had forgotten about this matter, but he couldn't let the shopkeeper know about it.

He deftly gathered up all the cotton seeds and prepared to put them away for the back.

Yuan Mo was quick and grabbed one of the packages, refusing to let go.

The waiter's face turned green. Just as he was about to scold her, he saw the old lady snatch the bag of cotton seeds away and quickly put it into her arms.

This, is this a blatant robbery?

"Little brother, little brother, don't be anxious, listen to me, I will weigh another two kilograms of cotton, and you sell me this bag of seeds. Anyway, you have several bags at home, so you don't mind missing a little.

Is that okay? My family originally had some cotton seeds, but my son accidentally lost them. He was afraid of being beaten by his grandfather, so he came to the market today to look for them.

If we can’t find it, we’ll have to go to the county and the state capital to look for it. How much money will that cost? Even if I sell my son, it won’t be enough.”

Yuan Mo was also a smart man. When he heard his mother acting, he quickly cooperated.

He tightly grasped the waiter's collar to prevent him from snatching the things in Zhou Yue's arms.

The waiter was very confused, wondering if the mother and daughter were crazy.

He didn't dare to really snatch the things from Zhou Yue's arms, and he couldn't pull the collar out of Yuan Mo's hand.

I was sweating all over for a while.

During the stalemate, a middle-aged man came in from behind, lifting the door curtain and said curiously:

"What's going on?"

"Ah, shopkeeper, they, they want to buy cotton."

The waiter didn't dare to say it out loud and stammered.

Zhou Yue looked at the expressions of the waiter and the shopkeeper, and immediately understood the waiter's thoughts.

She cooperated and said, "Oh, I want to buy four pounds of cotton, but the waiter said that there is not much cotton and I can't buy so much at one time.

We saw that there was plenty of cotton, so that's why we had a dispute. It's okay, it's okay.

This can’t be blamed on the little brother, he was loyal to his duties…”

The waiter was so angry. What kind of words did the aunt say? He didn't even have a chance to confess.

Well, never mind, it was my fault first, so I'll just sell them the package of seeds. The shopkeeper didn't say how many packages there were, so I guess the seller didn't tell him either.

After listening to it, it seemed that those cotton seeds were given by the previous seller, so it was even less of a problem.

Thinking of this, the waiter finally figured it out. He stopped rushing forward and pulled his wrinkled collar from Yuan Mo's hand.

"Four catties, agreed, two hundred coins per catty, eight hundred coins in total, settle the bill first and then weigh the cotton."

"what?"

The shopkeeper and Yuan Mo were both shocked.

Is this a price hike? This is too shameless.

The waiter glanced at the cotton seeds in Zhou Yue's arms and continued to affirm:

"Yeah, if you don't want it, just leave the things there and look somewhere else."

Are you threatening?

Never mind. Four catties only cost eighty cents. Just consider it as the money to buy cotton seeds.

The shopkeeper glared at the waiter and said, "This price..."

He was just about to smooth things over when he heard Zhou Yue say, "Okay, weigh it. It'll be better if you weigh it."

The shopkeeper felt relieved and hurried to pull the cotton bag himself.

The waiter put the bags of cotton seeds in his hand on the counter and helped to pull the cotton and take the scale.

When they came out of the cloth shop, Zhou Yue and Yuan Mo's backpacks were full.

The heavy bag was much taller than a person, and he carried it through the bustling crowd all the way to the big willow tree in front of the drugstore, where he met the children.

On the way, Zhou Yue bought a tray of buns, and everyone squatted under a tree and shared the buns.

Brother Dao also has a share, but there is only one of them.

Brother Dao swallowed the bun in one bite, just like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit.

Then Brother Dao licked his tongue and looked at Jun Mo.

Jun Mo and Dao Ge are good friends, and good friends certainly can't watch each other go hungry.

Jun Mo took out one of the two buns he was given and gave it to Brother Dao.

Brother Dao swallowed it again.

Jun Mo only took a small bite of the bun, looked at Brother Dao, then looked at the bun, feeling a little reluctant to part with it, yet he couldn't bear to look at Brother Dao's expectant eyes.

He was very confused.

After hesitating for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he took a big bite of the bun in his hand.

Then he threw the remaining half to Brother Dao.

Zhou Yue smiled, touched his head, and stuffed the remaining bun into his hand.

Song Yuan said that this child is very strong and fierce, and we should be careful of him.

Mr. Song is still unmarried and doesn't understand children.

How can this child be fierce? He is clearly a good child with a kind heart.

He didn't cry or make a fuss along the way, and just followed me to the market obediently. He was very easy to take care of.

This money is easy to earn. I will use it to feed him well and keep him fat and healthy.

After eating, everyone redistributed the things. Yang Mo and Qing Mo carried the lighter cotton, while the others carried the heavier things.

Yuan Mo solemnly placed all kinds of rapeseeds and the bag of cotton seeds at the bottom of his backpack.

The tools bought by Yang Mo were placed on it. Some of the tools were made of iron. This one was heavier and also the most expensive.

Yang Mo didn't buy anything. She came here mainly to investigate the situation of setting up stalls to sell snacks, and all her purchases were in her mind.

I rode someone else's horse on the way there, but I have to walk on my own on the way back.

They decided to take a shortcut that would save them half the distance, but this shortcut required crossing mountains and was a less traveled route.

Fortunately, there is plenty of food in the mountains during this season, and most wild animals will not run to the crowded areas at the foot of the mountain.

Besides, there are a lot of people here today, and Brother Dao is here, so we should not be afraid.
