When the staff of the granary delivered the food that Wenxiu had bought to the grocery store, he saw the pile of things that Song Xiaoyue was guarding. Hearing that it was bought by Wenxiu, he felt a burst of surprise and looked at her several times.
When Wen Xiu saw that he had not left yet, she said sarcastically, "Little Brother, could it be that your house is sending goods to your doorstep, and you want to help me send it back to Xi Tang Village?"
The shop assistant's heart was already burning with anger, but he had nowhere to vent it. Hearing Wenxiu's mockery of him, Chen Xiaolian's face turned dark and he harrumphed. Then, he pursed his lips and walked out the door. When he walked out of the grocery store, he spat a mouthful of saliva. However, when he looked up, he saw his own shopkeeper. He quickly withdrew his expression and rushed back to the store.
Song Xiaoyue didn't understand what was going on. There were some doubts in her eyes. Just as she was about to ask about Wenxiu, she saw that she was seriously counting the items she had bought. After counting, he nodded silently and said, "Mistress Yue, I've bought all of my things. Do you still have anything else you want to buy? If you haven't bought all of them, you can buy them now. "Wait a moment, let's hire a car and go back."
"Xiu Niang, are we really going to hire a car?"
Song Xiaoyue still kept the five taels of silver under her bed, untouched. As for Wen Xiu, she had probably spent half of her money. Look at the coarse rice in that bag. How much silver do the two bags cost?
The rice bag was sealed. Song Xiaoyue still did not know that Wen Xiu was buying rice!
Wenxiu nodded. Of course, they were hiring a car to go back. Otherwise, how would the two of them move these things? Even with a man as a laborer, one or two people would be unable to handle so many things.
The owner of the grocery store heard the two talking and walked up to them when he heard that they wanted to hire a car. "Sisters, I do have two ox-cart workers. If you don't mind, I'll have my unfilial grandson send you back."
There was already an oxcart here, why wouldn't he be willing?
"En!" Xiu replied. She thanked him and quickly moved the items out.
Song Xiaoyue also hurried to help.
As the boss entered the backyard, the lazy young man from before drove the oxcart around the backyard. There was a look of reluctance on his face, but seeing how the two of them were struggling to move the items, he got out of the car to help them.
After Wen Xiu thanked the boss, the young man drove the oxcart away.
At this time, the street was already slowly becoming lively.
On the way back to the village, Song Xiaoyue learned that Wen Xiu had bought fifty catties of rice, fifty catties of brown rice, and twenty catties of flour. She was extremely shocked. Her mouth was wide open, and she could put in an egg at any time.
Since Wenxiu had the money, she made it big. She didn't even blink when she bought fifty catties of rice.
Song Xiaoyue and Wenxiu were married at about the same time in Xitang Village, and Wenxiu's situation and experience could be considered as a complete witness. A man who had carried a copper coin in his pocket for five years spent money like water … It's too inexpensive. Why not save a little while you have the money?
"Here, return your bun money!"
After Wen Xiu gave Song Xiaoyue a few copper coins, she opened her oilskin bag and took out a steamed bun. She shared one with her and the young man, while she also nibbled on one for herself.
Song Xiaoyue was still lost in her own thoughts. She didn't even have time to collect the copper coins, and the steamed buns were tasteless. She was muttering to herself. Although her voice was soft, Wenxiu was able to hear it clearly. It was as if she was saying that Wenxiu had lost her family and had saved some money.
When Wen Xiu saw that she was distracted, she did not speak to her and just continued to nibble on the steamed bun. When she finished a steamed bun, the young man who was driving the oxcart also finished it.
The young man chewed a steamed bun and became more spirited. It was easier for Wenxiu to speak.
Wenxiu had never ridden in an ox-cart before. She had thought that riding an ox-cart was a very comfortable thing to do. Who knew that all the journey they had made to ride the ox-cart had nearly left her buttocks in four pieces? If it was just the pain alone, it would have been fine. But what was even worse, her stomach was churning violently. When talking to young people, there were several times when it felt like he was about to puke.
"Are you all right? Why don't we rest for a bit before leaving? "
Although the young man was speaking, he had already stopped the ox-cart.
Wenxiu could not hold it in. She stopped the car, jumped off the car, and ran to the side of the road to vomit. The steamed bun she had just eaten was for free.
Song Xiaoyue was extremely frightened by her "vomiting" and quickly ran over to give her a massage. She did not mind the filth on the ground at all and even handed her a handkerchief, "Are you alright? "Wipe first, and we'll find a shady place to rest for a while.
This break lasted for about an hour.
Wen Xiu's stomach was empty, but after vomiting, she regained her spirit. She had truly been defeated by her original body. Back then … Although she was a hero, how could she be in such a sorry state when riding an oxcart with her physique? She was just a joke to others. She could only sigh. This day was incomparable to the past!
After the three of them found a cool place to rest, Wen Xiu came to understand that this young man's surname was Zhang, with a single name, One Heng. The old man who opened the shop was his grandfather, his surname was Hu, and he was known as Grandpa Hu. Zhang Heng's parents died early, and his uncles didn't like him. His grandfather brought him back, feeling sorry for him. From then on, he grew up with his grandfather. However, in the past ten years, some things had happened. His relationship with his grandfather was not as close as it used to be.
Zhang Heng and Song Xiaoyue were chatting with Wenxiu, who was listening by the side. It was hard to tell if his words were true or false. However, he seemed to be speaking the truth with an absent-minded expression. However, his words were not detailed enough. Wenxiu and Song Xiaoyue did not finish what they wanted to say. As for his family's matters, they did not understand it at all.
Song Xiaoyue still wanted to get to know more, but Heng stopped talking. He turned to Wenxiu and asked, "Are you done resting?" Since you're done resting, let's hurry on our way! "
The ox-cart slowly moved forward. Wen Xiu's stomach was completely emptied. She was no longer feeling as bad as before.
When the oxcart entered the village, the entire village went into an uproar. What did they see? Wenxiu entered the village on an ox-cart. The young man driving the ox-cart rushed to her front door and helped her unload it before sending it into the house.
Wenxiu had actually bought something!
Where did she get the money?
When he saw Wenxiu's returning men near the village entrance, he quickly spread the news. Soon, the news of Wenxiu buying things spread throughout the entire Xitang Village.
Song Xiaoyue noticed everyone's reaction and frowned slightly. She had a bad premonition. She pulled down the moving Xiu and asked, "Xiu Niang, what are you going to do?"
What should he do?
Of course it was according to the original plan!
Wen Xiu patted Song Xiaoyue's shoulder to ease her heart and said with a smile, "If anyone asks, tell them the truth. You forget, didn't I tell you where the silver came from this morning? You must be serious in acting! "
"I …"
Song Xiaoyue hesitated.
Wenxiu ignored her and walked over to Zhang Heng with a smile.
