Chapter 21 - Chapter 21 Go to The Griddle
When the sky was still gray and bright, Mo Lin Yu had already woken up. The first thing he did when he woke up was to wake Mo Xiao Yan up.
Dong, dong, dong …
"Xiao Yan, are you up yet?" Mo Lin Yu asked.
Knocking on the door woke Mo Xiao Xia up. Seeing that Mo Xiao Yan was still sleeping soundly, she could only wake up. Mo Xiao Yan slept soundly, so the knocking on the door and Mo Lin Yu's shouts did not wake her up.
Mo Xiao Xia shook Mo Xiao Yan and said: "Xiao Yan, wake up, didn't you want to go to town today? Wake up quickly, Big Brother has already called you."
Mo Xiao Yan's eyes were still hazy and sleepy. The room was still dark and probably the sky wasn't even lit yet.
Mo Xiao Yan slowly groped his way to put it on, then went outside to wash his face in cold water. Only then did he feel a little more awake.
They went into the kitchen. Lee's had already cooked some porridge, and it was even vegetable porridge. The two of them ate a bit, and then started on their journey.
The sky wasn't completely bright yet, and along the way, he didn't see many people. There were quite a few dogs barking.
"Big brother, how long do we have to walk for?" Mo Xiao Yan could not help but ask.
Mo Lin Yu replied: "Soon, go to the entrance of the village and get an ox carriage. Master Zhao will be waiting there every day at this time."
The two of them walked quite quickly, and before long, they arrived at the entrance of the village. Right now, the ox-cart was parked there, and an old man was sitting there smoking a pipe.
"I just finished eating and it's still early. I think we'll need a while to get to the market. You guys sit here for a while, we'll hurry on our way once we're full." The Master Zhao said.
"Grandpa Zhao, do you know how to put this basket in the way?" Mo Xiao Yan asked obediently.
"Hur hur, it's alright. Just let it go. It won't take up much space."
The two of them sat on the ox-cart. After a while, a few people came one after another, and after the ox-cart was full, they started to travel, the journey was bumpy, and was not used to riding on it for the first time.
After arriving at the market, there were quite a few people. Even though it was still early in the morning, this ancient people's market was really too early. They all woke up early in the morning to go to the market.
"Big Brother, shall we go to the medicine store now?" Mo Xiao Yan said.
"En, let's go. I'll bring you there."
He turned left and right before arriving at a medicine store. It appeared to be a large one with quite a large area.
"Shopkeeper, are you here to collect herbs?" Mo Xiao Yan asked.
The shopkeeper glanced at Mo Xiao Yan's basket and said: "Little girl, do you want to sell herbs?"
"Well, yes."
"Show me." The shopkeeper said.
Mo Xiao Yan handed the basket over to him. The shopkeeper glanced at it and said: "En, not bad. You basked it quite well. I'll weigh it for you."
"Thank you, Shopkeeper." Mo Xiao Yan said happily.
The shopkeeper said, "How about I give you eighty copper coins?"
When Mo Xiao Yan heard the price of eighty copper coins, he felt that it was not a small sum.
Mo Xiao Yan smiled and said: "Mn, good, thank you shopkeeper."
Walking out of the medicine store, Mo Xiao Yan wanted to hand over the eighty over copper coins to Mo Lin Yu, but Mo Lin Yu insisted on not giving it to him. Mo Xiao Yan felt very helpless, so he put it away and thought of giving it to Lee's instead.
"Big Brother, I don't think there's any rice or vegetables left at home. Let's go buy some." Mo Xiao Yan said.
Mo Lin Yu thought about it, that was true, for the past few days, his family had been drinking brown rice porridge everyday, so there were no dishes.
