Don't panic in a famine, I live in the mountains with my golden finger
Chapter 52 Wonderful
"Girl, how much is this?" Seeing another customer coming, Xu Yuan quickly stuffed the book he picked up into his backpack which was used to hold copper coins.
"Sister-in-law, these are sprouts. They cost two cents a handful. They are sprouts grown at home."
"It's the first time I've seen it. It's quite fresh. I'll buy one to try."
"Good."
……
After Xuyuan entertained several customers in succession, the weight of the backpack gradually decreased.
While making a wish, he watched the villagers at the stalls next to him gradually pack up their stalls, and thought that if he just waited a little longer, he would just pack up if no one came.
"Hey, Xuyuan, do you want these? They're the leftovers. If you want them, I won't take them back." The auntie next to her had finished cleaning up the stall, leaving some pakchoy and cucumbers that didn't look very good.
"Sure, Auntie, you can also try my sprouts." Xu Yuan did not refuse. It happened that he hadn't eaten much pakchoy in these days. After all, the ones in the ground had not grown yet, let alone cucumbers.
"Thank you. I've never seen it before. I'll take it home and let my kids try it." The aunt took the sprouts generously, handed the rest of the dish to Xu Yuan and left.
It was noon. Xu Yuan had been busy all morning and his stomach was growling with hunger. Fortunately, he had prepared some dry food. The biscuits were cold and hard. Xu Yuan took a bite of the biscuit and a sip of water. After two or three bites, he was full.
Now that he had some free time, Xu Yuan thought of the books in his backpack.
It shouldn't be a problem if I flip through it, the title of this book really arouses my curiosity.
When making a wish and throwing it into the backpack, he took another quick look at it.
A domineering prince chasing his beloved daughter, a bandit leader? Author: Yi Ye Zhi Qiu!
Isn’t this the storybook that the electrician was reading in the store last time?
Curiosity killed the cat. Xuyuan carefully turned a page without destroying the storybook...
Wonderful...
Even with such a rustic plot, local people still love to watch it.
Xu Yuan flipped through the book faster and faster, his expression sometimes blank and sometimes with pupils trembling...
I have to say, who exactly is this Yi Ye Zhi Qiu? Could he be another time traveler? The more I watch this plot, the more familiar it becomes. I am making a bold guess...
"Girl, I want everything in your backpack. How much is it?"
"girl……"
Xu Yuan came back to his senses and quickly put away the notebook, still feeling unsatisfied.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience."
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler came to the wishing stall, took a look, and spoke immediately.
"These are the sprouts I grew at home. They are two cents a bunch. I have five bunches left. Just give me ten cents."
"Here." This man is also a straightforward person. He gives money with one hand and takes the goods with the other.
Xuyuan is happy to deal with such people.
The backpack was finally empty. I carried thirty handfuls of sprouts in it, which I sold all. I made a wish and thought about the things that were still missing in my home.
Each person should prepare an extra set of clothes in case of rain.
When he arrived at the clothing store, Xuyuan compared the prices of ready-made clothes and fabrics.
Forget it, coarse cloth is still more cost-effective. When it is worn out, you can just use it as a tablecloth, and it still looks cheap.
But Xu Yuan had never made clothes before, so he could only figure it out by himself. He chose two kinds of linen in standard colors, and now he had spent twenty copper coins, which hurt Xu Yuan a lot.
He ran to buy some coarse salt and came back to the pork shop.
"Boss, two pounds of fat, and two pounds of this meat too." Xu Yuan pointed at the piece of fat and lean pork in front of him, and had already prepared the recipe in his mind.
With a quick glance, he saw the pig offal piled under the table. It smelled very bad and flies were flying around. Xu Yuan frowned but said nothing.
Xu Yuan didn't want to eat pig offal. Although it would smell delicious after cleaning, it was very troublesome to handle. Xu Yuan hated the trouble, so he looked away.
After buying what he wanted, Xuyuan came to the place where the flowers were parked and went home.
……
Zhuhou Village
"Grandma, why are you going to the market again? I've told you several times, why didn't you call me and my sister? We were almost scared to death last time." Ye Maner was guarding the door. When she saw someone coming, she stepped forward and took the empty carrying pole.
"Man'er, there are still some loquats left here, take some and eat them. Where is your sister? Where is that kid Xiaoxun? She's not home every day."
"Grandma, I'm taking my brother to the mountain. Don't be angry, come, have a drink of water." Ye Maner helped her grandmother into the house.
"Grandma, what kind of dish is this? This is the first time I've seen it."
"A kind girl gave it to me and said it was buds. I brought it back for you to try."
Ye Maner was very happy. Ever since her sister fell from the tree, life at home had been getting better and better. They no longer had to endure the days of hunger and cold. Although grandma's body was hunched, she was in very good spirits.
That’s great! Ye Maner said with deep emotion.
After rushing all the way, Xu Yuan finally returned to Hsinchu Village as he wished.
It's strange. I bought a lot of bean sprouts today, but Xiaojiu didn't say a word. What's going on? Is it possible that the invention of bean sprouts does not deserve the reward of points?
"Xiaojiu," Xu Yuan didn't believe in evil and called Xiaojiu consciously in his mind.
However, there was no response.
"Xiao Jiu..."
"Ding, master, what's the matter?" Xiaojiu was still yawning, with a cute little baby voice.
"Xiaojiu, don't I get any points for inventing soybean sprouts?"
"Wait a moment, Master, let me clear my head. I have been repairing obstacles these days, so I may not have broadcast it."
"Beep beep beep beep beep" a prompt sound suddenly appeared in his mind. Xu Yuan endured the pain in his head and kept a calm face.
It echoed in my mind for a while, and finally stopped.
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the master for discovering soybean sprouts. One hundred points as a reward."
"Sister, come in quickly. Why are you standing there? Are you tired?" Xu Zhi opened the gate and saw his elder sister sitting in the cart, not knowing what she was thinking about.
"Xiaozhi, I'm fine. I just want to give you some of my things. Xiaozhi, do you have any tools for mending clothes at home? I'll buy some cloth and try to make some clothes."
"Ah, sister, haven't you done needlework before? Mother taught us before. Don't waste the fabrics. I'll do it. Sister, you can do something else."
Xu Zhi's words were rough but true. Xu Yuan then slowly searched his memory. The corner of his mouth twitched. The only thing he had ever come into contact with in his memory was needle and thread. A good little bird turned into a completely weird thing. He had no idea what the hell it was.
It seems that some people are born not to be suitable for doing certain jobs. They can't do any needlework at all. They are like blowing fire with a rolling pin and know nothing about it.
Regardless of whether it is the wish made in the past or the wish made now, it is only possible to mend the torn holes in clothes, but the stitches are very ugly, and it is probably impossible to make clothes at all.
"Okay, then leave it to Xiaozhi, the great tailor. Where are Guozi and Xiaoduo?" Why don't I see the two little kids chattering anymore? I'm really not used to it.
"Sister, there's some food left for you in the pot. Take a break after you finish eating. Guozi and Xiaoduo are going to take a nap."
Xu Yuan nodded, took out the cloth and handed it to Xu Zhi, then carried the rest into the kitchen.
