C12 Market
Hsing Nuannuan glanced at her coldly. Even if this woman had already become her reader, she still didn't have a good impression of her.
"Lan Hua, you're already a grown woman. How can you bully a child?" The village chief's wife spoke up.
As soon as she spoke, Lan Hua lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything. She was also a person who bullied the weak and feared the strong.
Seeing that Lan Hua was silent, Hsing Nuannuan put on a childlike expression, as if she had never seen anything like this before. She started to look around. As long as she saw someone on the road, she would look at them for two seconds. If they couldn't see each other, she wouldn't force them.
When they arrived at the county town, Hsing Nuannuan couldn't remember how many times she had looked at someone. In any case, she knew that her readers would definitely increase by a lot this time.
Most of them had gone to the cooperative, but there were still some free vendors in a relatively remote alley. These people were selling second-hand goods.
Hsing Nuannuan was pulled into this alley by Xiaoju's mother. "Nuannuan, Xiaoju said that her house doesn't even have a quilt. There are two stores selling old quilts in that alley. You can buy one from them. It's probably only about one yuan."
Xiaoju's mother was also pitiful for Hsing Nuannuan. Otherwise, she wouldn't have bothered with this matter.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
"Don't be so polite with Auntie. Go ahead. I'll bring Xiaoju to buy clothes."
At this moment, the people were very simple. As long as they were on the same street, they wouldn't have to worry about their children being lost.
Hsing Nuannuan walked into the alley. The prices were really cheap. There were two stores selling old blankets in the alley.
Hsing Nuannuan walked in and realized that they were actually old blankets. However, there were also some that had been repaired. However, when she walked in, she saw a familiar blanket. That blanket was the blanket that her aunt had carried away from her house.
"Uncle, how much is this?" Hsing Nuannuan pointed at the blanket. She took the opportunity to look at the man for two seconds.
"Two yuan. That one has not been repaired!" The uncle explained. That blanket had just been taken back.
"I know." Hsing Nuannuan sighed. Rather than buying some blankets that she didn't know, she might as well buy her own.
Hsing Nuannuan turned around and picked a new blanket.
"Miss, that also costs two pieces!" Seeing Hsing Nuannuan's uncle, he couldn't help but remind her.
"Uncle, I'll give it to you." Hsing Nuannuan took out four yuan and gave it to the uncle. "My aunt is still waiting for me outside."
The uncle helped Hsing Nuannuan roll the blanket and blanket into a basket. Hsing Nuannuan carried it on her back and walked out of the door. Although she could buy new blankets from the small shops, there were some things that needed to be passed through the streets.
When Hsing Nuannuan came out of the grocery store with her basket on her back, Xiaoju's mother walked over and took the basket from her. "Come, I'll carry you!"
"Thank you, Auntie!"
"Don't be so polite, Auntie. I won't be able to help you too much." Xiaoju's mother sighed.
The three of them walked back to the grocery store. Hsing Nuannuan bought some salt and soy sauce, but she didn't buy anything else. The salt and soy sauce only costed her five cents.
When they arrived at the place where they could take the bus, Hsing Nuannuan was glad that the first few people to come out of the grocery store were the first ones to get into the bus. The bus didn't have her auntie and Lan Hua. If they had been there, she would've had to ask for money from them.
After about half an hour, Hsing Yuling ran to the place where the carriage was parked. Seeing that there was only one carriage left, she couldn't help but stomp her feet. "Uncle, have you seen Huannuan?"
The coachman raised his eyes and looked at her. "We're already back."
Hsing Yuling stomped her feet again and snorted. "Damn it, that little girl ran away."
Her words made the coachman frown. Was this girl planning to sell that little girl? Were the children of the Hsing Family all rotten? How could they treat their niece like this?
At this moment, Goudan and his mother walked over. When his mother saw the coachman, she smiled and asked, "Uncle, are there any empty seats when we go back?"
"It's fine. You can sit if you squeeze." The middle-aged man glanced at Goudan, remembering what Hsing Yuling had said just now. He quietly pulled Goudan to the side. "Goudan, you usually play with Hsing Nuannuan very well, right?"
"Yes, sir."
"I'm telling you, Hsing Nuannuan has already gone back, but her aunt is looking for her everywhere. She even said that she ran away. I suspect that her aunt has bad intentions. Remember to remind Hsing Nuannuan."
"What? Does she want to sell Hsing Nuannuan?" Goudan's eyes widened.
"Goudan, don't talk about this. But you have to remind that little girl to be careful. The people from her grandmother's family are not so easy to deal with." The middle-aged man suddenly thought of something. "Hsing Nuannuan's household register is still independent. No one is taking her in. Ask Hsing Nuannuan to find the village chief to take back her household register and let her be independent. This way, her grandmother and the others won't be able to control her. Do you understand?"
Hearing that, Goudan nodded. "Thank you, sir!"
"Why are you thanking me? I'm just pitiful for that child." The middle-aged man sighed. He had a good relationship with Jianbin. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with this matter.
Goudan kept these words in his heart. He thought that as soon as he returned home, he would immediately tell Hsing Nuannuan about this.
At this time, Hsing Nuannuan was having a headache. On the way home, she was still looking left and right. Then, she accidentally saw a middle-aged man who was picking up trash.
When she tried to retract her gaze, it was already too late. Two seconds had passed in the blink of an eye.
The uncle who was picking up the trash still smiled at her. Hsing Nuannuan, on the other hand, had an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry. If this guy really saw what she had written tonight, would he reward her with trash?
Was it too late for her to close her eyes now? Could the system not reward this reader? Oh, mother, what if a pile of trash came out of the system? Wouldn't that be a mess?
"Nuannuan, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Xiaoju, who was sitting beside her, saw her grimacing and thought that she was feeling unwell.
Hsing Nuannuan pursed her lips. "I'm not feeling unwell. It's nothing."
Xiaoju looked at Hsing Nuannuan doubtfully. What was going on?
Hsing Nuannuan continued to develop her readers. However, not many people could see her for two seconds. Even so, she was already very happy. At least twenty readers had been developed today. She wondered what kind of reward she would get tonight.
Hsing Nuannuan began to rub her fists, hoping to get a good reward today. At the very least, she would get something delicious. That way, she wouldn't have to spend the System Currency to buy food.
Before noon, the entire car had arrived at her house. Hsing Nuannuan climbed up the mountain. She had no choice. Her house was farther than anyone else's. She didn't know what her parents had thought at that time. Why did they build their house at the middle of the mountain?
