026 Lai Cai Grocery Store(1/2)

Chapter 026 Laicai Grocery Store "Sister, how come you haven't seen a chicken seller after walking for so long?" The second brother looked at the street unhappily. Today is not a market day, so except for the rows of shops on both sides of the street, there are almost

I didn't see any chicken sellers.

"Dad, what should I do? There are no chickens to sell?" Ling Tianyang didn't know what to do. Modern cities are no longer bustling with people, but this remote town is not.

"This, this..." Ling Wensheng is a grown man who doesn't know what to do. A blush appeared on his honest face. His daughter and son finally asked him a question, but he didn't know what to do.

answer.

Ling Tianyang secretly sighed in his heart. This is how it is in ancient times. It is very committed to the male lead outside and the female lead inside. So Ling Wensheng is a big man and if you let him work in the fields, he must be a good hand. However, regarding some small

He didn't know anything about the matter.

"Forget it, Dad, let's go back and ask Mom to find out which store sells chickens."

"Then where are we going now?" The second child asked Ling Wensheng nervously. It was his first time in the town and he didn't want to go back so early.

"Dad, where can I buy rock sugar?" Ling Tianyang thought that if he came to town once in a while, he would ask how to sell sugar first, so that he wouldn't be in a hurry when he really wanted to make wine.

"Bingtang? Yangyang, that's a rare item. There's only one store selling it in our town. It's very expensive!" Ling Wensheng looked at her daughter in confusion. Why did she buy candy?

"Dad, you will know this by then, let's go and take a look first! By the way, dad, did mom ask you to buy anything yesterday?" Ling Tianyang was so excited that he wanted to go directly to the old man Ling Wensheng and his second son to buy candy.

His face is full of joy.

"What didn't your mother ask me to buy?" Ling Wensheng scratched his head. Yesterday, Xiuying really didn't let me buy anything directly. Yangyang asked, did Xiuying really want to buy something, then why didn't she tell him?

?

"Oh, that's it. Dad, let's buy a piglet and feed it back?" Nowadays, you can't kill the pigs to eat during the Chinese New Year. However, if you want to get rich, you really can't rely on gallnuts. There is also wine making. If their family can

There is no food, so how can she make wine? Even a clever woman cannot make a living without rice. After raising pigs, you can either sell them or kill them yourself and eat them. The pig manure can fertilize the fields. There are many benefits!

"Piggy? Yangyang, it's hard for us to make money..."

Ling Tianyang knew that Ling Wensheng was a little reluctant to part with it. In her memory, they had never seen so much money. In fact, if it hadn't been for the help from Wang's mother-in-law from time to time in recent years, there is no telling how many of their children would have survived.

Anyone.

"Dad, do you want us to buy a piglet, raise it, and then sell it for money? In this way, won't our family have more and more money?" Ling Tianyang was afraid that Ling Wensheng's brain would not be able to react, so he held his hand.

, raised his little face and said expectantly.

"Haha... That's the truth. Then I will go to your grandfather's house tomorrow and ask, they should have it there!" Ling Wensheng smiled honestly and agreed immediately. "It's just...

··········Yangyang, can our family afford to raise pigs? "Raising pigs has always been a major task for farmers. Which farmer doesn't want to raise pigs, but he just has no money."

"Dad, don't worry. Although there is a severe drought this year, it's impossible for our two acres of dry land to have no grain at all! Besides, we don't need to feed all of them with grain. The second and third sons, I, and I can go hunt for pigweed. There shouldn't be any."

Question. "Ling Tianyang may not have told Ling Wensheng that if their family has some grain this year, she is not going to use it to pay the autumn tax or make wine. The distiller's grains can be fed to pigs and fish, but their family does not have it.

Not only their family, but no family in the entire Bajiaowo has a fish pond. Ling Tianyang can only think about these things now. It is impossible for their family to eat a big fat man in one bite.

Ling Wensheng was still a little nervous, but when he thought about the three taels of silver in his arms, he thought it was possible, so he nodded and took Ling Tianyang and his second son to a grocery store called Laicai. According to Ling Wensheng, this is

The largest grocery store in Zhaofu Town has everything in it. Ling Tianyang simply ignored this. It was a joke. It has everything. There is Peking duck. Is there any cake? I am really not afraid of the wind blowing my tongue! Ling Wensheng also said,

The shopkeeper of this grocery store is the son-in-law of Wang Yuan's wife in the town. Ling Tianyang sneered, no wonder his family is the largest grocery store in the town. It turns out there is nepotism.

As soon as the three of them walked into Caicai Grocery Store, a young man who looked like a waiter stopped them at the door and said arrogantly: "What are you doing? Don't you know this is Caicai Grocery Store? Don't even look at what this is.

Is this a place you can just enter?" The waiter saw the three people who came in. Their clothes were all patched. It looked like they were not rich people. What could they afford?

Ling Tianyang was angry. He had been reborn in this place for almost a month. She had never seen such a person before. If it were in modern times, she would have complained. It was rare to talk nonsense to him. But this is not modern time.

So she put her hands on her hips, sneered and said, "We can't go in? Even one of your servants can be in there, so why can't we go in? Do you think I won't recognize you if you have a green onion stuck in your nose?"

Dogs look down upon people and forget what they are?"

Ling Tianyang has always believed that I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, even your mother will not recognize you! The waiter turned pale with anger at Ling Tianyang's words. He is the nephew of the shopkeeper here, and he actually said that he is a servant.

, raised his hand to slap Ling Tianyang, Ling Wensheng and the second child walked up to Ling Tianyang and blocked the second child's hand.

This time Ling Tianyang was really angry. Damn it, he was going to beat someone up even if he said nothing. His grandmother was not a human being! He burst out with anger and walked up to the waiter. Ling Wensheng scratched the back of the waiter's hand.

In his hand, the waiter struggled to free himself and looked at Ling Tianyang angrily, "What do you want to do? I tell you, it's best not to fight in our shop, otherwise... humph...

··I tell you, Yuan Wai is also my cousin’s grandfather. If you offend us, you will be left with nothing to eat!"

The waiter's words made Ling Tianyang slap her down without thinking. The slap made her hand hurt. Immediately, there were five bright red thumb marks on the waiter's face, and his chest heaved up and down. "Okay, okay, you dare to hit me, okay."

,Brother Kun!"

"Yangyang, how did you..."

The second child didn't say anything and protected Ling Tianyang tightly. Although Ling Wensheng looked at Ling Tianyang with some reproach, he was also afraid that the second child would become angry due to shame, so he quickly protected her.

The waiter howled at the top of his lungs, and soon four tall and thick men appeared. As soon as the leader came out, he asked eagerly: "Xiaochun, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother Kun, they are causing trouble in the store!" The waiter covered his face with one hand and pointed at Ling Tianyang and the others.

"What? Who is so brave and dares to cause trouble in our business?" Brother Kun is a short but sturdy man. He walked up to Ling Tianyang and the others in a few steps, "Are you the ones causing trouble?"

Ling Tianyang also knew that his slap had caused trouble, so he quickly walked up to Brother Kun, guarding the second child and Ling Wensheng behind him, and said to the second child: "What? You can't beat me and you want to ask someone to follow me."

Fight? You Lai Cai like to take advantage of the large number of people and bully the small people. Now I have learned a lot!"

"What? Xiaochun, you didn't beat her?" Brother Kun looked at Xiaochun with contempt, with a slap mark on his face. He couldn't even beat the skinny little girl in front of him. It was really embarrassing.

"No, Brother Kun, I..."

"What am I? Brother Kun, you seem to be a sensible person at first glance. Tell me, when we came in to buy things, he looked down upon others and wouldn't let us in. Isn't this clearly bullying us? I'm just a little girl.

, how can I say anything to him? I didn’t expect that he would hit me. My dad couldn’t bear it, so he had to hold his hand. My dad was not in good health. I was afraid that he would be too strong and hurt my dad, so I went up.

Stopping me, I didn’t expect that if I wasn’t paying attention, I would be careless..." After Ling Tianyang finished speaking, he pretended to cry.

Brother Kun was first pleased by Ling Tianyang's words that you are a sensible person at first glance. No one has ever praised him so much. Only those who study are said to be sensible. Unexpectedly, he has become a sensible person now.

He is a reasonable person, but when he heard it later, his brows became tighter and tighter. How could he not know what kind of person Xiaochun was? If he hadn't accompanied Brother Quan here today, Xiaochun wouldn't necessarily have used his power to bully the father and daughter.

Man, at that moment, Brother Kun glanced at the person behind him and said to Xiaochun with a stern face: "Leave this matter to Brother Quan!"

Brother Quan is the young owner of this shop. He just came back from his grandfather's house today. They were the ones who sent the young master back. Otherwise, how could Xiaochun have the courage to hit someone?

"What are you all doing here?"

Hearing this voice, Xiaochun showed an unnatural look on his face, with some panic in his eyes. He lowered his head and did not dare to look at the people coming out of the store. When Ling Tianyang heard this voice, he felt refreshed and changed his voice.

Some are hoarse. At first glance, he is really a little boy. He looks okay, but his face is too pale. He is wearing dark green embroidered satin. His hair is raised high and a white jade hairpin is inserted in the center. At first glance, he is what modern people call a pretty boy.

, However, he is not as handsome as the pretty boy!

Brother Kun walked up to the little boy and repeated to him what Ling Tianyang had just said. The little boy's face turned darker and darker as he listened. Finally, he slapped the counter hard, and the abacus on the counter shook slightly, "If you hadn't looked at

You are my cousin, I will never keep you!"

"Brother Kun, go back and tell my mother that I want to fire him!" The little boy turned to Brother Kun and said. He was looking at the account books in the back room just now, and he came out when he heard Lao Zhang calling him. In fact, he heard someone say that they

The family has a high standard of living, and even when buying things, he has to look at people, but he never knew that the culprit of this incident was his cousin.

"Cousin, listen to me, I just..." Xiaochun was extremely anxious. He was about to say something just now, but was interrupted by some stinky girl. Her father seemed to have something.

Does he look sick? His strength was as strong as that of a cow. Also, the stinky girl didn't hit him by accident, he hit her on purpose.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Dad, don't leave us!" Ling Tianyang was extremely anxious. Huh, she just wanted to punish that arrogant person. She just wronged her father.

Ling Wensheng was confused at first. He didn't know why Yangyang was crying or what happened to him. He was fine. But when he saw the look in his second son's eyes and Yangyang's hands on his waist, he immediately became confused.

Tell Ling Tianyang that he is a little dizzy!

Yang Dequan didn't even notice that there was a thin little girl in the store just now. Now after hearing Ling Tianyang's words, he raised his head and looked at her. She was wearing clothes and pants made of gray cloth and a pair of rag shoes, but she looked very...

Clean and refreshing, the yellow hair was tied back by Ling Tianyang at will. Because there was no hair tie, he used the pink floral cloth left over from the clothes Wang made two days ago. The bangs in front of his forehead were very long, almost covering his head.

In fact, Ling Tianyang did this intentionally. People say that the eyes are the windows to the soul. If someone sees from her eyes that she is not the real person, then this matter will be a big deal!

Yang Dequan looked at Ling Tianyang with slightly curious eyes. Why was this girl crying so loudly? There were tears on Ling Tianyang's face. Seeing that Yang Dequan felt very guilty, he quickly ordered people to take Xiaochun down and said to Ling Tianyang: "

This girl, I'm really sorry. We will handle today's matter properly when we come to the grocery store!"

Ling Tianyang ignored Yang Dequan, and together with his second son, he pretended to help Ling Wensheng into the grocery store and sat down, "Oh, as long as my dad is fine! Dad, are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you want a glass of water?"

When Yang Dequan saw this, he went over and poured a glass of water and handed it to Ling Wensheng, which made Ling Wensheng extremely embarrassed. Ling Tianyang saw what Yang Dequan did, well, this grocery store is not without good people. He pretended to wipe his tears with his sleeves.

, suppressed his crying, and then asked calmly.

"I would like to ask, do you have any rock candy here?"

I was originally here to buy rock candy today, but I was disturbed by some annoying waiter and almost forgot about the business.

"Bingtang? Why don't we have it here? Brother Kun, go and bring it to this little girl." Yang Dequan was surprised. This rocktang is a rare thing. Can this poor-looking little girl afford it?

However, Yang Dequan, who believed that the customer was both wrong and right, still smiled and asked Brother Kun to bring the rock candy.

Seeing the crystal clear rock candies, Ling Tianyang's mood suddenly improved, and he stopped muttering in his heart. He took it over and looked at it with a smile, and asked: "How do you sell this?"

"Eh? You want to buy it? If it's you, then I'll give it to you with the original price. It'll be a shock to the girl and your father! Sixty cents per pound!"

"Oh my god, so expensive? Yangyang, we..." Ling Wensheng didn't know what Ling Tianyang was doing with it. When he heard that it was sixty cents per pound, he wanted to throw the rock candy away.

, they worked hard for so many days and only got three taels of silver. A small package of this thing cost sixty coins.

The second child looked at Ling Tianyang without saying anything. Last night they said they should trust his sister. She said she would send him to school and study medicine. He believed her.
