Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

Thinking of this, Xia Xiaoju couldn't help but shudder, mother.

Xia Beibei helped her so much, and she still hated Xia Beibei, this... This village chief Xia's family really doesn't have a good thing, and I don't know what Xia Ziyin is thinking in his heart.

Mother, will daddy go to town tomorrow? she asked.

Your father doesn't have the time to go, the land outside is still uncultivated, you have to cultivate it quickly. Aunt Ji said immediately.

If it weren't for the fact that her mother-in-law and Xiaoju would be bullied if they went alone, she wouldn't even want to go. Everyone is busy preparing to plant this year's field, so that they can eat their own food earlier.

Hurry up and get ready. Tomorrow morning, we'll go to the town to sell bamboo baskets. Tomorrow is the day of the market, and there will be a lot of people shopping.

En. Xia Xiaoju responded.

...

Early the next morning, before dawn, Xia Beibei was woken up by Xia Xiaoju's yelling. She rubbed her big confused eyes, and then she remembered that today was the day to go into town to sell things.

However, looking at the darkness outside, it was almost impossible to see.

Is it necessary to be so early? This is too... Her hands and feet are still soft now, and she has no strength in her whole body.

Jiu Niang, get up quickly, grandma has cooked noodles for you, eat and leave. Sang Jinghong's voice came from the yard, and she looked at the empty bed in her room .

She sighed, and sure enough, she was the last one to get up again, she didn't even know when Wu Shiqiu and sisters went out.

Come on, let yourself wake up quickly, put on your clothes quickly, and go outside.

Jiu girl, I made some fried dumplings, do you want to eat? Wu Shiqing was holding a plate in his hand, saw her open the door, and hurried over and asked.

Shiqing, when did you wake up? I don't feel anything at all.

Damn, even fried dumplings are ready to serve, she doesn't remember that there were dumplings in her kitchen last night, they must have just been made.

Wake up early and see that Miss Nine is sleeping soundly, so I didn't disturb you. Wu Shiqing replied, and went to the hall with the plate.

Hearing the sound of Grandma Sang's door, she and Shiqiu got up, and when they came out, they saw Grandma Sang preparing to boil hot water. She and Shiqiu naturally took care of everything.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help complaining to that Xia Ziyin again. They were busy in the kitchen, but she was fine, but she was slow, and she didn't know what she was doing. Finally, she finally entered the kitchen and helped Grandma Sang After lighting the fire, she looks more like a young lady than Jiu Niu.

Sister Jiuniang, I'll come to your house for breakfast. Xia Xiaoju had already entered the yard, and she knew that Xia Beibei was a master who couldn't wake up, so as soon as she got up, after washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she hurried to sleep. coming.

Her mother and grandma are probably having breakfast now.

You can eat as much as you want, Xiaoju, why is it so early? Her house has plenty to eat, but it's still dark, are they planning to go to Nanshan Town blindly?

It's not early, we have to eat breakfast quickly and set off, otherwise, we won't be able to grab a good booth in the town. Xia Xiaoju muttered and said.

So that's the case. Xia Beibei nodded.

There is still this particularity, but think about it, today is the busiest day in Nanshan Town, people from all over the world should not crowd into Nanshan Town.

You have to go early to get a good spot.

Xia Ziyin stood by the kitchen door, looking at Xia Beibei and Xia Xiaoju, chatting like sisters, feeling sad.

If it weren't for her abominable father, the person who was closest to Xia Beibei would be Xia Ziyin, how could it be Xia Xiaoju's turn to be a little girl.

Jiu Niang, hurry up and have breakfast, I have to go out in a while. Xia Ziyin walked up to her and said something to her.

Xia Beibei nodded, Ziyin, what do you want to buy, I'll buy it for you.

No need, let's talk about it after I earn money myself. Xia Ziyin shook her head, she already owed Xia Beibei fifty taels, so how could she use her money.

Fortunately, when she came out of the house yesterday, the embroidery on her body was in her arms. She wanted to discuss with Xia Beibei when she came back in the evening, and let her go into town with her tomorrow.

After selling these embroideries, she can exchange for some copper coins, and then buy some embroidered cloth and embroidery thread back. In this way, the silver in her hands will gradually increase. Sooner or later, she will be able to spend Return the fifty taels of silver to Xia Beibei in exchange for her freedom.

Then it's up to you. Xia Beibei closed the door of her own room, turned around and went to wash up.

...

I came to Nanshan Town in a bullock cart, and as soon as I got outside the town, I saw a lot of people waiting outside with their bags on their backs.

This is...the door hasn't been opened yet. Xia Beibei squinted her eyes and looked at it for a while before realizing that it was the gate of the town, which hadn't been opened yet.

Other towns don't have any gates or city walls, but Nanshan Town used to be considered a county, but for some unknown reason, it merged with Anyun County, so Nanshan Town is still very big.

Mother, take your time with Jiu Niang and the others, I'll go first. Aunt Ji glanced at her mother-in-law and jumped off the bullock cart.

Aunt Ji, where are you going? Xia Beibei asked inexplicably.

Well, she is the real villager who came to the city. She doesn't understand anything, so she can only ask.

Sister Jiuniang, you are so stupid. There are so many people. How can our bullock cart outrun others? Mother must first grab a good seat, otherwise, we can only stay in the corner. Xia Xia Xiaoju made a face at Xia Beibei and explained.

Xia Beibei: ...

Sure enough, it is really not easy to earn some money.

Shiqiu, you go with Aunt Ji. She said immediately.

Yes, Miss Nine. Wu Shiqiu responded.

Although she had a lot of small bubbles in her heart, she really didn't understand why Jiu Niu, who had two hundred thousand taels of silver notes in her arms, had to be so tired and squeezed into the crowd.

But what Miss Jiu said was what she said, she had to listen.

Aunt Ji, Shi Qiu has time and can run faster. Let her hold the things in your arms. Xia Beibei glanced at the things in Aunt Ji's arms.

It must be a rope or something used to occupy the place.

Okay. Aunt Ji didn't delay. At this time, whoever can get the best seat in the most lively place in the town on weekdays is the best.

Jiu Niang, don't worry, take your time... ah, the door is open, hurry up and go. Before she could finish what she wanted to say, she heard a muffled sound and turned her head away quickly.

She was very familiar with this sound, it was the 'creaking' sound of the gate being opened, because it was only a town now, and the gate hadn't been repaired for many years, so it kept breaking down.

As soon as Aunt Ji finished speaking, Xia Beibei's eyes widened.

She finally realized what skill is. All of them were chatting with acquaintances just now. When they heard the noise, they quickly pushed away the people beside them and ran inside.

This is simply... She doesn't even know how to describe it. When hungry tigers and wolves go down the mountain to hunt, they definitely look like this. Their eyes are gloomy, and they squeeze in through the crack of the door, wishing they could shrink. Gu Gong was the first to squeeze through the door.

And those who were a little bit fatter all cursed secretly.

Ah! A scream sounded.

Xia Beibei secretly gave Wu Shiqiu a big thumbs up. Although there is only one crack in the door, at most two people can squeeze in, but the door is very high. People with lightness skills can fly in by relying on it. .

Wow, sister Jiuniang, sister Shiqiu is so amazing. Xia Xiaoju couldn't help being stunned, wondering if her mother would be scared to death.

Let's go, drive the ox cart in quickly, don't make your mother wait too long. Xia Beibei said to Xia Xiaoju.

Hearing this, Grandma Xin hurried to the front, drove the carriage, and headed for the town.

...

Oh, isn't this Lao Ji? You came so early. Look, you have robbed such a big seat. It must be for me. Thank you so much. Aunt Ji just put a tattered long cloth and Wu Shiqiu and the two pulled away, and a cheeky voice rang out.

Sorry, this is the position I gave to my niece. You can go wherever you like. Aunt Ji raised her head with a straight face, and she didn't have any face left by that shameless woman.

In the past, she might have given this woman a little face, because no one supported her, but today, she has a powerful girl like Wu Shiqiu by her side, so why should she be afraid of it.

Your niece, ha, Lao Ji, who are you lying to? Your man doesn't have half a brother. Where did your niece come from? Your man couldn't have given birth outside... Ah!

The woman was about to say something frivolous, but she was slapped in the face.

You—who are you! The woman immediately covered her face and looked at the beating Wu Shiqiu. This man was too bullying.

If you dare to say something wrong with my young lady again, I'll kill you! Wu Shiqiu's sharp eyes stared at the woman sullenly, as if he wanted to shoot a few ice holes in her body.

You...who said your young lady? I mean... She turned her head to look at Aunt Ji, secretly angry, this woman, didn't she come from their village, why didn't she help her mother's family? Words, watching her being beaten.

Old Ji, you should just say something. It's none of her business if the two of us talk.

Look at what you said. If you say that about my niece, you can't let my niece's maid avenge her. Aunt Ji said cheerfully.
