The next day, instead of going to work, Zhao Xiangyun went to the county.

There was no other way, Chen Wuyue was too stubborn, she could not even pull the eight cows back.

She did not allow Zhao Xiangyun to work, so she did not dare go against her wishes.

If he let Zhao Xiangyun rest at home, where would Zhao Xiangyun be able to sit down?

If he didn't let her do the work, she would go to the county town. She could also take some things to exchange and clear the storage space.

He put 20 jin of fine grain and 10 Jin of coarse grain into the basket on his back.

After that, Zhao Xiangyun went to the county.

She was already very familiar with the location of the black market. Whenever she wandered around, all she needed to do was to find a suitable buyer.

Not long after she wandered around, Zhao Xiangyun was called over by an old lady.

"My daughter …"

Zhao Xiangyun looked carefully, and it was the old lady who changed the gold bracelet with her before.

Zhao Xiangyun suddenly remembered that the last time she promised him, she would make a trade every other day.

However, due to the matter of him and Jiang Weimin being angry at him, he had actually completely forgotten about it.

"Aunt, I'm sorry, I …" "I …"

"No problem!" Everyone has their own busy times! " The old lady looked like she was in a good mood to talk.

In this day and age, who hasn't?

Besides, she was the one who wanted to exchange for food. She was the one who asked for people!

"Thank you!" Zhao Xiangyun gratefully said.

"What are you thanking me for!" Oh right, daughter, you … Did you bring anything today? " the old lady asked Zhao Xiangyun.

"Yes!" There was coarse grain and fine grain, and... "Eggs!" Zhao Xiangyun said.

"There are eggs too!" "How many?" The old lady was very happy.

"Twenty!" Zhao Xiangyun said.

The old granny's gaze immediately lit up!

At present, although there were many from the countryside, they would bring eggs to the city to exchange for money.

However, the number of chickens raised by each family was limited. Every day, there would be one egg, and every month, there would be 30 chickens kept.

If there were pregnant women and children in the family, then these 30 would not even be enough for them to eat!

Where else would he sell it?

"My daughter, let's find a place with no one. Can we talk later?" The old lady looked around and said cautiously.

"Alright!" Zhao Xiangyun lowered her voice and replied her.

Then, he purposely said, "Grandma Zhao, didn't you say you were going to introduce me to a matchmaker last time? What was going on? Tell me in detail! "

"Sure, go talk to my house!"

The two of them, arm in arm, chatted and laughed and soon left the black market.

When they arrived at a place with no one around, Zhao Xiangyun took down the basket on her back.

He opened the cloth bag on top of it. Twenty catties of grain, ten catties of grain and twenty eggs were given to the old lady together.

"Aunt, this is what I brought out this time! If you still feel that it's not enough, then make an appointment one day! " Zhao Xiangyun said.

"My daughter, can I continue to trade for things like last time? "To be honest, even with the salary that I and this old man have, I can't afford to pay for it!" The old lady looked at Zhao Xiangyun embarrassedly.

She knew, she said, that it was not right.

Available... But there was no other way.

Zhao Xiangyun nodded, "Of course!"

She didn't lack money, if she lost it herself, she could still ask her mother, Chen Wuyue, for money.

But if it was some antique, she would definitely become a rich woman after twenty or thirty years!

"I left in a hurry and didn't bring anything with me. Can you come home with me?" the old lady asked.

"You... If you just take me to your house like that, aren't you afraid that I'll be a bad person? " Zhao Xiangyun could not help but ask.

"Don't worry, I can see that you're a good person!" You saved my life and the old man's, how could you be a bad guy? "

Furthermore, she believed in fate. Since the heavens were fated for her to meet this chubby girl, no one could say for sure whether it was a blessing or a curse.

"Alright then!" "Since you've said so, I won't say anymore!"

Zhao Xiangyun put everything into the bamboo basket and followed the old lady back home.

On the way, the old lady told Zhao Xiangyun her surname was Luo.

It was the street cleaner, and the old man was the street sweeper.

He was bullied a lot because of his bad character.

It was a good thing that the children had found work outside.

Aunt Luo lived in a small room in the pavilion in the corridor of a building. The room was very small, dark and humid.

When Zhao Xiangyun followed him in, she even suspected that there might really be someone who could live here.

The environment was terrible.

Without the light on, it was almost impossible to see what was going on inside the house.

It was obvious that the grandpa wasn't at home. The room was too quiet.

After pulling Zhao Xiangyun into the house, the old lady lit the oil lamp on the table.

In the pitch black pavilion, it finally lit up.

Using the faint light of the oil lamp, Zhao Xiangyun finally saw the interior of the house clearly.

It was extremely simple and crude.

There was a wooden bed, and on the wooden bed was a tattered piece of cotton wool. The cotton wool was covered with a patched bedsheet …

There were stools in the room, but only one.

Then there was a crappy wardrobe and a crappy table.

There were some utensils in the corner, coal stoves and water jugs.

There was a hole in the middle of all the old things the coal stove had picked up from who knows where.

There was also a kettle. It was unknown who kicked it a few times, causing it to deflate.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xiangyun was shocked speechless.

"Aunt Luo, you … Do you usually live here? " Zhao Xiangyun asked.

"Yes, not before!"

Once upon a time, she had a big house!

That was more than twenty years ago.

Her old house had long since been torn to pieces.

Now, he was afraid that these children would lose their parents.

"Aunt Luo, I …" Zhao Xiangyun was too embarrassed to take this old lady's things.

She looked too poor.

The Aunt Luo could see her thoughts from Zhao Xiangyun's gaze. She walked to her side and lowered her voice before speaking to her. "My daughter, although our wages are not enough to buy food, we have things to give us! If you want to change the environment, you can use things to exchange for it! "

The bank recovers gold and silver.

However, no one wanted the jewelry or the calligraphy and painting.

However, they had spent a lot of money to buy those things back in the day.

Hearing that, Zhao Xiangyun understood.

"Aunt Luo, you mean to say … Disguise? " Zhao Xiangyun asked.

"That's more or less what I meant!"

They lived a miserable life, others wouldn't look for trouble.

There was nothing in their family, so they wouldn't step on the fragile jealousy of some people.

Aunt Luo only wanted to live peacefully. If she could see her children being married off, she would be able to close her eyes.

"Girl, this is for you!"

Aunt Luo took out two gold rings from under her pillow and handed them over to Zhao Xiangyun.

After that, he rummaged through the house for a golden hairpin.

These things were scattered everywhere in fear of being found by others.

Sometimes, the more casually something was placed, the less attention people would pay to it!
