When Xia Qiyue arrived with the carriage, it was completely dark. She was not afraid. If she couldn't, she hid in the space. Anyway, her current appearance would not affect her future life.
As soon as she parked the carriage, the shopkeeper ran out, holding a lamp in his hand and looking carefully.
Because no one came to buy food at this time, it was most likely that they were bringing high-quality polished rice.
He has been waiting for two days, and he feels uneasy because the high-quality polished rice is too tempting. It will help him gain face in front of the master and help his second concubine.
"Girl, are you delivering food?" the shopkeeper asked tentatively in a low voice.
Xia Qiyue hummed and didn't say much, just like the persona she had set for herself.
"Quick, quick, come out and unload the truck!" The shopkeeper shouted into the shop, and several people ran out of the shop. They quickly helped Xia Qiyue take the reins and rushed to unload the truck.
Xia Qiyue stood at the door of the shop and watched them go back and forth. They quickly finished unloading a thousand kilograms of grain and weighed out the precise kilograms.
"Shopkeeper, there are a total of 492 kilograms of rice and 490 kilograms of wheat!" A man who looked like a manager ran out to report the count.
The shopkeeper stood with Xia Qiyue at the door of the shop without inviting her to come in and sit down. From Xia Qiyue's actions, it seemed that the shopkeeper was pretty good.
Firstly, it would be bad for her reputation if she entered a shop full of men as a woman. Secondly, it also proved that he had no ill intentions towards her, which reassured her.
"A total of 982 kilograms, which is fourteen taels, seven hundred and thirty cents of silver! Please wait a moment, girl, I will get you some silver right now."
The shopkeeper calculated the price without an abacus, said hello to Xia Qiyue, and went into the shop to get money.
The man who looked like a manager also followed in, and went with the shopkeeper to carefully inspect the grain sent by Xia Qiyue. The shopkeeper only took out the money after making sure it was of the same quality as that day.
Xia Qiyue waited for a long time, and when she saw the shopkeeper running out, she embarrassedly explained that counting the money was a waste of time.
She knew what the shopkeeper was doing, but she didn't want to expose it. She could understand it. After all, if the quality of the food bought at double the price was not guaranteed, he would lose money.
Xia Qiyue took the silver, without counting it or looking at it, and turned around to go to the carriage to leave.
The shopkeeper quickly called out, "Girl, the ones delivered this time are too few, can you send more?"
"Three days later!"
He left only three words and drove away, not heading home, but in the opposite direction.
However, not long after Xia Qiyue left, he turned the horse's head in a deserted place, and then he returned home with confidence.
More than ten taels is nothing compared to the income from halva, but fly legs are also meat.
At night, Ke'er and Ling'er sleep with him, so Xia Qiyue can't enter the space at any time. It's good to be able to sneak into the space in the early morning.
The space is still 20,000 kilograms away from being upgraded, and the total is only 983 taels of silver. There is no chance of winning a prize, but Xia Qiyue thought that even if she could win a prize, she would be reluctant to part with it, because the silver is too important.
Over at Baijia Village, when the daytime is warmer, everyone goes to the forest not far away to cut down trees and prepare materials, and the afternoon is the best time to do so.
Because the porridge providers now not only give out porridge, but also give out dry goods such as whole grain pancakes, so that you can feel fuller.
But it was given on a per capita basis, and An Youde and the other six couldn't catch up, so they never received it once.
But the six of us eat so well every day, including rice, meat, vegetables, and eggs, that they don't even think about eating that.
When returning every day, Anliang's two younger sisters would pick up their fourth brother on the road.
Several people lived in the same shed, so An Liang couldn't find a chance to give the two eggs to his two sisters. The two of them were a little disappointed, but they still didn't speak in front of outsiders.
It wasn't until he returned to the shed and everyone else was heading towards their own homes that An Liang had the chance to take out two eggs and secretly put them into the hands of his two sisters.
"Wow...eggs..."
My little sister is only eight years old. Sometimes she can't hide her emotions, and she can't help but shout out when she gets something good.
"Shh... keep your voice down!" The older sister slapped the younger sister on the head, telling her to keep her voice down.
But the eldest son of the eldest brother's family still saw it.
"Brother-in-law, what good things did you give your two aunts?"
The shed was so big, and although it wasn't in the same place as our house, we could still see it at a glance. It wasn't even dark when they came back, and the eldest nephew saw it and ran towards it.
The eldest nephew is already eleven years old, older than the two aunts, but Mrs. Anqian still likes to take care of this grandson when there are good things.
The two daughters are just as good as not to starve to death. The younger son and older grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady. The Anqian family loves An Liang and the older grandson An Dalang the most.
"Hurry up and hide it! It's so annoying!" An Wuya asked her sister to hide the eggs quickly because her eldest nephew was coming soon.
But how could An Liuya be as excited as her sister? Even when An Dalang arrived, she didn't hide the eggs well.
"Uncle, what good things have you given to my two aunts? I want it too!"
This was a matter of course. An Liang was a man of few words and would not lie, so he told the truth when asked.
"Only two eggs, no more!"
At this time, An Dalang was furious. The young man did not make any fuss here, but turned around and ran to his own house to complain to his grandmother, An Qianshi.
"Liuya, eat quickly!" An Wuya saw the opportunity and told her sister to eat the eggs quickly.
An Liuya listened to her sister's words the most. As soon as she heard what her sister said, she peeled off the egg shell in three to three times, stuffed it into her mouth and ate it.
The two girls had bulging mouths and almost choked. An Liang quickly gave his water bag to the two sisters to drink. When An Dalang proudly brought his grandma over to grab it, the day lily was already cold.
.
He was used to grabbing whatever good things his two aunts had in the past, but he didn't expect that this time the two aunts ate the eggs directly, which made him very angry.
He got angry on the spot and pointed at An Liang, accusing him of only bringing eggs to his aunts, and no one else in the family had any, and he started a small stove like this before the family was separated.
An Liang was speechless when she was accused. She made such a fuss in front of so many people that An Qian lost her face. She has always been a face-saving person, but her rival, Mrs. An, couldn't stand it after seeing the joke.
, and scolded all his children back.
Then he scolded the two daughters severely and punished them not to drink the porridge tomorrow morning.
She couldn't bear to punish her youngest son and grandson, so she took all her anger out on her two daughters. This made Wu Ya cry loudly, which was heard by many people, and made An Qian very angry.
An Dalang also kept complaining about An Liang. The children in the family were all crying when they heard it was eggs. For a while, the shed was full of the uncle's crying sounds.
An Liang's face turned red and his neck thickened with anxiety. If his mother hadn't been suppressing the rest of the family, her anger would have reached him. This made him regret for a moment that he had done such a thing just to give his sisters a good bite.
Not a human being, he felt very sorry for his fourth sister-in-law, who stole food from others.
