Chapter 43 Going to the county seat
The two of them wrapped up the patched clothes in the wardrobe, and Li Chenyuan carried them into the kitchen and set them on fire. In turn, he gave him two sets of Jiang Biqing's clothes.
"Brother Shen Yuan." Jiang Biqing put down his crossed knees and saw that he was wearing navy blue clothes. He was looking clear and handsome.
"Here, these are the clothes Grandpa Li bought for you. When you see Grandpa Li, remember to say thank you to him." Li Chenyuan stuffed the clothes to him. "After changing clothes, remember to put the torn clothes in the kitchen."
Go, sister doesn't want to see us wearing rags."
"Yes." He stroked the new clothes with his hand and smiled.
Li Chenyuan's eyes twitched and he left immediately.
In the evening, Li Chenyuan and Jiang Biqing prepared a meal and invited Mr. Li and two confidants.
From the moment Mr. Li entered the door, his eyes fell on Li Chenzhou, who was dressed in red, "Beautiful, my granddaughter looks happy in her dress."
"Old man, how beautiful are these clothes? Can your confidants be more discerning next time! It's really ugly, but it's new at least, so just wear it!" Li Chenzhou's face was full of disgust.
Mr. Li smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, let them grow some eyes next time; how about next time, little darling and grandpa go shopping together?"
"Okay." Li Chenzhou nodded decisively, after all, he was spending his father's money.
Mr. Li smiled and narrowed his eyes, pushed away from Li Chenyuan, and sat next to Li Chenzhou; looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table, a pot of sweet potatoes, pancakes made of white flour, a large pot of stewed chicken and eight roast rabbits.
"Where did the chickens and rabbits come from?"
"Master and Brother Shen Yuan caught it on the mountain." Jiang Biqing climbed up on the stool and sat down. Two of his confidants stood aside and did not sit down. "Why don't you sit down? I cooked your food. Usually Master, Brother Shen Yuan and I
It’s enough for one person to eat a sweet potato, plus chicken, pheasant and rabbit.”
The two confidants shook their heads one after another, "No need..."
"Sit down and eat." Mr. Li said. The two confidants looked at each other and sat down at the Eight Immortals table next to Jiang Biqing.
"Zhouzhou, let's eat." Li Chenyuan didn't care so much, he took a big sweet potato and a rabbit from the basin and put them in front of his sister.
Li Chenzhou narrowed his eyes with a smile, and started to nibble on the sweet potato without its skin being thin. After nibbling one bite at a time, he picked up the roasted rabbit and ate three roasted rabbits, two pancakes, and a small half of the stewed chicken.
Wipe your mouth with satisfaction.
Mr. Li was so frightened that his heartbeat stopped and he asked tremblingly: "My little darling! Why do you eat so much? Are you holding on?"
"I just finished eating." Li Chenzhou touched his belly and pursed his lips, "Old man, you think you hate me for eating too much!"
"Where is it! It's a blessing to be able to eat, it's a blessing to be able to eat." Mr. Li shook his head with a smile, raised his hand to touch her silky hair, and felt softer in his heart; my little granddaughter, I love you no matter how you look at her.
Jiang Biqing said: "Old man, the master is a cultivator. He consumes a lot of food and has a good appetite."
"So that's it, that's good." Mr. Li felt relieved and his eyes softened when he looked at Jiang Biqing, "My dear, do you want some more?"
"I won't eat anymore. Also, don't call me little darling. I'm getting goosebumps." Li Chenzhou looked disgusted and touched his arms with both hands.
Mr. Li still smiled and said, "Okay, from now on I will call you Zhouzhou."
Li Chenzhou completely lost his temper. The old man was like a handsome man, always smiling no matter what he did.
…
The sun is rising and it's still dark.
Li Chenyuan and Jiang Bi asked for explanation, and then took their sister out.
The brother and sister were both martial arts practitioners, and they didn't feel tired after walking for more than two hours; when they entered the county town, their geniuses had just turned white.
"Brother, look there is a breakfast stall there, let's go have breakfast!" Li Chenzhou took his brother to the breakfast stall, raised his head and asked: "Boss, what kind of food do you have here?"
The boss is a middle-aged uncle and looks like a loyal person.
"Little girl, I have soy milk, fried dough sticks, steamed buns, and steamed buns here. What do you want to eat?" The boss smiled slightly and saw a little girl holding a little boy on the other side, but he didn't take it to heart.
"How to sell it?"
The boss looked at the two boys in surprise, but still quoted the price, "Fried dough sticks and steamed buns are five cents each, food stamps are one tael, soy milk is ten cents a bowl, food stamps are half a tael, steamed buns are three cents each, food stamps are
I want one or two."
"Ten steamed buns, four bowls of soy milk, ten fried dough sticks, and ten steamed buns." That should be enough.
Li Chenzhou took out a five-yuan note and gave it to him, "Steamed buns are 30 cents, soy milk is 40 cents, steamed buns and fried dough sticks are 1 yuan; the total is 1.70 cents, boss, change."
The boss didn't expect that a little girl could actually come up with five yuan. Five yuan is not a small amount of money; in ordinary people, it can last half a month.
"Girl, do you have food stamps? If you only have money, it will be more expensive."
"No." Li Chenzhou shook his head. They didn't work in the village, so they didn't have centimeters, so naturally they didn't have food stamps.
"Okay, I won't charge you more money. I'll just give you an increase of two cents. Do you think it's appropriate?"
Li Chenzhou nodded, "It's appropriate, the boss is kind."
"Haha, the little girl is really good at talking." The boss took out the money from his pocket and counted the remaining money to her. "You guys go to the table and take a seat! It will be served right away."
Li Chenzhou pulled Li Chenyuan and left. After sitting down at the table, he remembered that she had never given her brother any money; what can a man do without money?
"Brother, keep this hundred yuan and buy whatever you want. If it's not enough, tell me. I have more here." Li Chenzhou quietly put a hundred yuan into his hand.
"I can't ask for Zhouzhou's money." Li Chenyuan refused to accept it.
Li Chenzhou had a pretty face, "Isn't Zhouzhou's also my brother's? According to what my brother said, mine is mine, so what's yours is also yours. Could it be that in the future, when my brother makes money, he won't give it to Zhouzhou?"
"
"Nonsense." Li Chenyuan patted his sister on the head in a funny way, "Okay, brother, keep it and give it to Zhouzhouhua when he makes money."
"That's right!" It's rare for her to be generous! Others don't get this kind of treatment.
While they were talking, the boss brought the food one after another, "You two eat slowly. If you don't finish it, I can pack it away for you."
The brother and sister quickly swept away the breakfast on the table, not even a scrap was left.
The boss was dumbfounded. They were obviously two children, but they ate more than adults.
"Boss, thank you!" Li Chenyuan led Li Chenzhou down from the table.
After filling his stomach, Li Chenzhou began to take Li Chenyuan to wander around the county town; he stopped when he wandered to a spacious and bright shop.
The words "Supply and Marketing Cooperative" are written on it, and there are slogans unique to this era on both sides.
"Brother, is this the supply and marketing cooperative that the aunts in the village are talking about?" Li Chenzhou opened her eyes and looked inside curiously. With a glance of her consciousness, she took a closer look at the things inside.
