C6 Understand

As far as she knew, cotton seeds, soybeans, camellia, olives, peanuts, and so on could all be used to extract oil. If he could extract the fragrant and pure peanut oil and sesame oil, how could there not be a market for them?

The storekeeper saw that little woman was not angry, so he apologized to himself. No matter how hard he tried, he would throw his face away and say whatever he wanted. He always had a smile plastered on his face. The shopkeeper became a lot more amiable after her attitude.

"Shopkeeper, how much are you selling this coarse grain and the fine grain? I don't want any oil for now, so I'll just buy the grain."

The storekeeper had thought that she would not ask for more, but upon hearing that she wanted more food, he became more enthusiastic.

"We have several kinds of food here. One of them is brown rice ordered by ordinary labourers. This kind of rice is a little mildewed, but it can still be eaten after washing it a few more times. For an inferior meter like this, it would only cost ten copper coins. "

Lee Qiqiao also looked over. Mom, this is a bit black. There were even some hairy legs. Even though the shopkeeper was speaking the truth, he only needed to wash up a few more times to be able to eat it. However, Lee Qiqiao didn't want to end up with a bad stomach just because she ate such cheap food.

However, a fight between ten copper coins was indeed cheap. With a rough look, he estimated that this measuring device could hold at least three Jin. That is to say, ten coppers and three catties. It was like giving away something for free.

"What about this? I think it's a little rough, but it looks like this year's stuff. "

"This type is this kind of small fight, one fight for ten gold coins."

The shopkeeper held another bucket in his hand. It looked like it was half the size of the previous one. That is to say, these ten pieces of money can only weigh half a kilogram.

Looking at the brown rice with half of it bran, Lee Qiqiao was truly at a loss. Could she really eat this kind of food? Sigh, people who are used to eating all kinds of modern rice, yet want to eat this kind of food with bran mixed in it … It was a sign that he was having a hard time keeping his mouth shut.

"Hehe, little woman seems to be dissatisfied with this kind of rice with bran. Actually, there was such flour here. Although the color was not good, many people were willing to eat it. A meal made with this and this kind of food would be much easier to eat. "

The shopkeeper pointed to a nearby pocket. Lee Qiqiao went over to take a look. Wow, isn't this a black face? It was indeed a little ugly. But in modern times, this kind of rough surface is very popular.

"Fine, then I'll give you twenty matches." "Here are some of these grains, give me five buckets as well."

Her body had a good appetite, so she had to eat more. A grain of fine grain (about a pound or two) costs fifteen coppers. It seemed like two taels of silver was quite a lot, but he had spent close to one tael to buy some salt, sugar, and rice from the grain shop.

He looked at the remaining silver taels in his hands. Although his heart was throbbing in pain, he still had to spend more. She had always believed that money was earned, not saved.

Seeing that the shopkeeper was not too bad, Lee Qiqiao left the rice grains there and went to pull the cloth. Chun Wa's clothes were tattered to the point that they had to be torn.

Furthermore, her body, no matter what, was still that of a woman's. If she didn't have a set of clothes to change her clothes, the flesh of the woman who had a hole in her clothes would be exposed.

In the past, her previous self had been somewhat foolish. Now that she had changed her soul, how could she still be clear-headed enough to take care of this body? She needed even more care of it now.

There was no need to pull the cloth. As long as he could cover his body, he would be able to wear it.

Based on this idea, Lee Qiqiao was talking about some simple and crude coarse cotton cloth.

The cotton was a little better for Chun Wa, so it wouldn't be too soft on his body. As for the clothes, Lee Qiqiao had asked about them. If she wanted to purchase ready-made clothes from this shop, it would cost her another fifty copper coins.

If he went back and made clothes with the cloth, he could save fifty coppers. She doesn't know how to make clothes, but there's a dexterous Granny Liu next door.

Lee Qiqiao gritted her teeth and spent another 200 yuan to give Chen Xiu'er a piece of cloth. When the time came, even if it was the wages for the old woman's help in making clothes, and her constant care for the cloth, it would be worth it.

After all, the two of them were very close to each other. If she didn't take care of them, she wouldn't be able to turn around with Chun Wa.

There was no oil in the house, so even if he didn't cut meat, he still had to buy fat.

Looking at the last 300 copper coins in her hands, Lee Qiqiao cut another 5 jin of fat, 100 copper coins and it was gone just like that.

In this shitty place, there was only fifteen taels of gold worth of lean meat. However, the amount of fat required was twenty taels of silver for a catty.

Because I bought so many, the butcher only took ten coppers, gave me a few big bones, some fan bones, and some other small bones that got rid of all the meat." Such a big pot of bones was enough to boil soup for several days. With a wave of the stick, the pile of bone pieces and broken bone pieces seemed to weigh no less than ten pounds. A pile of bones like that actually made Chen Qiqiao feel like she had made a killing.

Two taels of silver, and in the end, only a hundred coppers remained. Lee Qiqiao didn't dare to buy anything else and just carried the huge pile of spoils home.

In reality, she also wanted to catch someone's oxcart, but she had missed the time. Thus, she only needed three coppers to catch the train, and missed it just like that.

Although Lee Qiqiao was carrying almost 150 pounds of goods, she was still walking like she was flying. If this were modern times, the passersby would have been so shocked that their jaws would drop.

Lady Wan, who had originally wanted a tael of silver for nothing, was dragged into the valley by Lee Qiqiao. Not to mention the fact that she was wet all over and had not even gone to the market, her pants were also worn out. Seeing this, his pants could be considered to be ruined.

This whole incident was like stealing a chicken until it was ruined. How could she endure such an embarrassing situation?

This person had thick skin and was a shameless woman.

After suffering such a huge loss, how could he not want to take revenge.

He cursed for a long time at home but still couldn't swallow his anger. He thought that even if Lee Qiqiao earned some money from the market, she would definitely have to exchange for something else. Thus, he ordered his wife to wait for him on the road.

"Young Lady Xu, hurry up and watch the road. When you see that idiot Li is back, come back and inform me."

After finishing his orders, he muttered to himself, "Idiot, as long as you buy something, I will immediately take away this idiot's thing. "Pui, you dare to drag me into a valley, this idiot must compensate me."

Young Lady Xu frowned, but still complied obediently. Although she had only been married for less than a year, she had no choice but to listen to her mother-in-law's words.

After receiving her orders, Young Lady Xu slowly walked towards the Sancha Mountain Dao with her back towards them.

Walking on the dirt road in the village, even if it was a bumpy road, Lee Qiqiao still felt that it was rhythmic. Ye Zichen touched the packet of sugar in his pocket. This was what he had slobbered for half a day when he was in the rice grains store.

Although it was only a few small pieces, Chun Wa'er looked like she was drooling and couldn't stop giggling.

As he turned the corner, he saw a slightly short woman with a paunchy face and a slightly dark complexion looking at him in panic. When the woman received her gaze, she became even more flustered. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to greet her, but did not dare to call out to her.

Lee Qiqiao searched her brain, only then did she recall that this person seemed to be Lady Wan's eldest wife, Young Lady Xu.

This was a quiet, taciturn little woman. Usually, she only knew how to work. With her slightly aged face, she seemed to be no less than thirty years old. Strictly speaking, this woman was only 15 years old. At that time, it was as if her family was poor and her family used a bag of food to marry her into Lady Wan's family.

little woman was probably chronically malnourished, with a sallow face. That short and thin figure even had a big round belly. From time to time, she would bend over to pull some pigweed. The basket on her back pressed down her body until it was flat. She always had to bend over to pull the straw, but her stomach was round, making bending down seem particularly strenuous. She would even occasionally give a bump as she walked … He was looking at … It was a real pain in the neck. Even she suspected that the next moment, she might not be able to get up even if she rolled on the ground.

When Young Lady Xu saw the large bag of food on Lee Qiqiao's back, she was obviously shocked. Her mouth moved as she greeted Lee Qiqiao, but she was unable to utter a single word of greeting. Finally, he slowly turned around and hurriedly cut up the wild pigweed.

Lee Qiqiao stared at her for a moment before shrugging her shoulders and prepared to leave. "Be careful of my mother-in-law …" However, when Lee Qiqiao brushed past her, Young Lady Xu spat out these words.

Lee Qiqiao paused for a moment. She looked deeply at Young Lady Xu. little woman, on the other hand, lowered her head and headed in the direction of the village in a flurried manner … It was as if the warning just now was just an illusion.

"Young Lady Xu huh …" Interesting. Are you trying to express your goodwill or are you trying to seduce your mother-in-law and plot against me? " Lee Qiqiao didn't care about any of this. Ever since he knew that this body was carrying the title of a fool to live on, he had to use the 'benefits' of being a fool no matter what.

Otherwise, how could she face those people who bullied her? She had always believed that if people didn't offend her, then I wouldn't offend them. If a man offends me, I will do twice as much reason...

Seeing that Young Lady Xu had returned home, Lady Wan hurriedly ran over. "That damned girl is back, is she back?"

"Mm …" Young Lady Xu tiredly put down her basket.

"What did you see? Did you carry a lot of things? "

Young Lady Xu's face was pale, and her body trembled. Her eyes looked flustered, but she still nodded.

"Haha, come here. Come and cook for me. I'll go find that damned girl and settle the score. "He dares to humiliate his elders?! This big fool is courting death."

With that, Lady Wan threw down the spatula and ran out. If it wasn't for her cooking today, how would she have let her pregnant eldest daughter-in-law keep an eye on Lee Qiqiao?

Young Lady Xu touched her slightly painful stomach and mustered up her courage. "Mom, my stomach is a bit heavy. It's a little painful, so I'm afraid …" "There seems to be something wrong below …"

Lady Wan glared at her coldly. "Isn't it just carrying a baby? Look at your delicate appearance!" You guys didn't know how heavy the first birth was. This pregnancy had only been seven months old and it was beginning to cry out in pain. It was still far too early to be born. Hurry up and cook, mother-in-law. I've got seven or eight babies, which one of them isn't still working. "Don't talk about people who don't want to work, there's no one who isn't pregnant and doesn't work in our family."

Perhaps she knew it would end like this, but Young Lady Xu had a bitter expression on her face as she propped herself up and helplessly took the spatula and started cooking.

After Lady Wan left the room, she hurriedly glanced around the room. After making sure that the lazy sister-in-law wouldn't keep an eye on them and that the other workers weren't able to return, she went to Lee Qiqiao for compensation.

However, just as he stepped out of the door, his mother-in-law, Old Lady Xu, stared at him. "Second brother, you're cooking today. Why are you running around blindly?"

"Lady Wan has also become a mother-in-law, but she still has to be careful in front of her own mother-in-law." Mom, I'm just thinking about my family's flaws and seasonings, so I wanted to borrow some from the Li family. "

Hearing that, Old Lady Xu picked up her broomstick and waved it at her, "Go to Li Er's place. Do you think I don't know that you, a lazy woman, want to be lazy when she sees the sky? At this moment, it was time for lunch. Go to Li Er's house, you were coaxing a ghost. Go home and cook dinner for me. The old man works so hard outside, if you don't eat hot soup when you get back, see if I don't skin you. "
