Chapter 23 Come to Town

"Mother, don't meddle in my son's marriage, be careful that our family will also suffer bad luck."

Qiu Fugui, who was driving the car, turned back angrily and said, his face was disgusted, and his tone was full of contempt for the Wang family.

If it weren't for the sake of my wife and the four copper coins today, he wouldn't want to pull this family.

Liu Zhihua frowned, and was about to refute a few words, but the head held the back of his hand, and Wang Zhuangzhi persuaded him in a low voice: "One thing more is worse than one thing less, what's the point of arguing with someone like him."

Erya couldn't help but mutter: "Our family is not unlucky."

Jiaojiao followed suit and nodded, "Well, not bad luck."

Their ginseng essence is very good luck and fortune.

Qiu Fugui seemed to have heard some joke, and just wanted to make a mockery out loud, but he didn't want a lump of bird feces to fall from the sky and fall on his face.

He hurriedly raised his hand to wipe it, but he didn't want to smear his face and back of his hands with bird feces. He cursed in a low voice: "These beasts..."

Erya covered her mouth and kept shaking her shoulders and laughing, she blinked her eyes innocently, this time it wasn't her trick.

Xiao Li looked forward curiously, Qiu Fugui blushed with anger, turned his back and wiped it with his sleeve.

Wang Zhuangzhi pulled Xiao Li to sit down obediently.

Granny Qiu frowned when she saw this, and looked at the Wang family. No wonder they all said that their family was unlucky. They felt uncomfortable because they disliked their grandson just now, and now they are even more dissatisfied.

Liu Zhihua saw that Granny Qiu's complexion was not good-looking, and sighed in her heart, and now she made another complaint.

Then he also pretended not to see it, and hugged Jiaojiao against the body of the master, closed his eyes and rested for a while, because he woke up too early this morning and felt a little drowsy.

There is a crossbar tied to the front end of the shaft of the ox cart, and a rectangular board is drawn behind it. There are two rows of simple handrails. The whole is rough and simple.

There were eight people sitting in the car, the old cow was walking with a grunt, Qiu Fugui whipped his whip from time to time, the car wobbled, and the journey was extremely slow.

…

Departed early in the morning, and it was already noon when we arrived in town.

Qiu Sheng got off the car ahead of time and went to the bookshop in Zhenkou.

The rest of the Wang family got off near the pharmacy in the back because it was inconvenient to carry half a sack of Tianqigen.

After the five members of the Wang family got off the car, Granny Qiu didn't say much, and she didn't even go to see the Wang family. The beginning of friendship with the Wang family was for the grandson's future marriage. Since he knew that the Wang family looked down on their grandson of the Lao Qiu family, there was no need to have more contact with them.

Qiu Fugui was full of impatience. He glanced at them and said displeasedly: "Go back to the village and find someone else. You are a poor family with you. You can't handle everything happily. It's like a nemesis!"

After finishing speaking, he drove away with a whip.

"Damn! Just your broken car is cold and sluggish, and the old scalper can walk slower than people. You really lost four copper coins for nothing." Liu Zhi shouted angrily.

"Mother, let's sell the money and hire a carriage to go home, and let them go with greed." Erya said loudly.

Liu Zhihua choked, looking at the things in the underground sack, always felt that this thing was unreliable, where can some earthwork roots be sold for money?

Wang Zhuangzhi sighed and picked up the sack, looked around and said, "Since we're here, I know there's a pharmacy behind, let's go and ask if they take it."

Jiaojiao blinked her eyes. She only knew that these things were valuable, but she didn't know how much they could sell for.

After thinking for a while, she tilted her head and hugged her mother's neck and said, "Mother~ this Tian Qi is a good medicine, and it can sell for a lot of money. Let's ask a few drugstores to sell it."

Erya hurriedly nodded in agreement and said, "Little sister is right, we need to ask a few more pharmacies, what if we are deceived."

Seeing the children's self-confidence, Liu Zhihua and Wang Zhuangzhi smiled helplessly, and now they can only cope with the matter.

"Then let your father go to the pharmacy to inquire about the price first, and we will sell it wherever the one is higher."

"it is good!"

Wang Zhuangzhi carried Xiao Li to the back shop to ask the price. Not to be outdone, Erya excitedly ran to the uncle selling buns at the corner ahead.

Smelling the delicious buns, she swallowed greedily, folded her fists and asked with a smile, "Uncle, do you know where the nearest medicine shop is?"

The uncle who sold the buns saw that she was an ugly girl with a black face and was dressed in tatters, so he waved his hand in displeasure: "Go, go, go, where is the ugly girl making trouble, don't interfere with my business."

Erya looked at him dissatisfied when he called her an ugly girl, "Why do you talk like that? You don't come here to buy buns if you have money."

The uncle selling steamed stuffed buns looked disdainful, and said mockingly: "Look at you, you can't afford steamed stuffed buns with your clothes. If you don't have money, don't ask me for it. Roll on, where are you poor!"

Erya is a ten-year-old girl after all. Although she was a little naughty in the village in the past, when she was reprimanded by someone pointing at her head, her eyes turned red and she clenched her fists tightly.

Jiaojiao has sensitive ears, and when she heard the movement, she hurried over with her short legs.

Seeing that her sister's eyes were red as if she had been angered, she wrinkled her face and looked at the stall owner angrily. She stood up and walked in front of her sister, and said softly and harshly, "You villain, you provoke my sister!" Angry, hurry up and apologize!"

The stall owner saw that another helper came, and heard her nonsense, as if he had heard some big joke, he looked at the two girls' videos with his waist raised and shouted: "You country bumpkins who don't know the heights of the world, get out of here!" back,"

Before he finished the following words, a gust of evil wind suddenly blew up in the sky, and the steamer in front of him was directly overturned to the ground by the wind, and white buns rolled to the ground in groups.

"Ah—my bun!"

Before the man went out to pick it up, a few wild dogs from nearby came over after smelling it, grabbed the buns, gnawed them, and barked at the man while guarding the food.

"Wow woof—"

"Go away! My bun..."

Jiaojiao and Erya took advantage of the chaos and slipped away.

At this end, Liu Zhihua looked enviously at the bustling town.

There are square green brick and large tiled houses everywhere, the streets are more lively than the market, all kinds of shops come and go, people are dazzled, it is really lively.

She smiled and turned her head, only to realize that Jiaojiao was gone, her face turned pale with fright, she hurriedly looked for her and shouted, "Jiaojiao!"

Jiaojiao and her sister ran over and saw Mother looking for her in a panic, she hurried over and hugged Mother's leg, "Mother~"

"Ouch, mother's little ancestor, you scared mother to death!"

Liu Zhihua's complexion was still a little pale, and she hugged her sweetheart tightly. Seeing that she was fine, she let out a long sigh of relief, and coaxed softly: "Baby, don't run around next time, if you lose your mother how to live."

Jiaojiao nodded obediently: "Mother~ Jiaojiao knows her mistake, she won't run around next time."

"Good boy~ my baby is really obedient." Liu Zhihua smiled and kissed her daughter's forehead.

Erya called out "Mother" feebly, and walked straight to the sack, her dark face drooping, her black hands clutching the hem of her clothes, apparently unhappy about what happened just now.

"You girl, you were running like crazy just now, what's the matter?" Liu Zhihua asked with a puzzled face.

Erya sat on the ground against the wall, scratching the ground with her hands, her two braids were a little messy, she pursed her lips unhappily and said in a low voice, "I want to earn a lot of money, and it's better to have money that can't be spent."

"Hahaha, you girl, everyone knows that money is a good thing, but how can money be so easy to earn."

Liu Zhihua shook her head with a smile, she only thought that the girl was looking at something, it was too expensive to have such emotion.
