She would love nothing more than to be a proper lady, but with no money or connections, no sons in the family, constant disputes with neighbors, and fierce relatives, she’s forced further and further down the opposite path… Watch as this feisty country girl blossoms into a radiant force of nature!
Chapter 33: pepper "Third uncle, you don't look at the stall, what are you doing here?" Shanzi said with a smile, and then introduced: "this is the daughter of Xu San Shu's family,Xing'er。” "Hello, uncle." Xu Xing'er hurriedly called. "I've seen it since I was a child, and I've grown so big?" Mr. Wu patted Xu Xing'er's head, took a thing out of his arms, and shoved it to her. "There's no good thing to be a gift, a gadget, take it to play." Xu Xing'er took over and just thought that it was gentle. Looking down, it turned out to be a small dog carved from stone. It looks childlike. The stone is generally white, with some light yellow on the edge. It was just processed into the curly hair of the dog, but it can't see what the material is. "It's so funny, I......" although Xu Xing'er doesn't understand the material, he looks at the excellent sculptor and doesn't dare to accept it casually and refuses again and again. "It's not something of value. The stones picked up by the river are carved by myself, and I'll take them for you." Wu Laosan is obviously a happy person, and he refuses to take back the things sent out. "What about your fourth uncle? Didn't come to the market?" Xu Xing'er spat his tongue and said, "I just want him to read at home. I want him to go to Cultivated Talent next year!" Wu Laosan heard the speech and laughed. After a long time, he said: "your fourth uncle's mind is not in study. It's no use to be so rigid." Xu Xing'er spread his hand and said: "I know what happened. Nine cows can't come back, let alone test Cultivated Talent. If she thinks my fourth uncle is a reading material, let him test Principal Graduate, my fourth uncle is not obedient." Mr. Wu raised his hand to wipe away the tears from his eyes and said to Xu Xing'er: "it's fun for you to talk, girl. Come on, I have to go back to the stall and let Shanzi take you to play. Then he grabbed the copper money from his pocket and handed it to Shanzi, saying, "take care of my sister, don't bully people." Shanzi took the copper coin and cut at Wu Laosan: "you think I'm you. I've bullied other girls since I was a child. How many people in the village have come to complain about my milk? You can remember all the milk!" "Hey, you are such a kid!" Wu Laosan reached out to fight. "Thank you!" Shanzi chucked the copper money, grabbed Xu Xing'er and ran away. Xu Xing'er curious asked Xu Xing'er: "what's the stall that your third uncle's third uncle's stall is selling?" "my family's stall is in the middle of the middle. Let's now turn outside and go back to the past. Anyway, it's not hot goods, it can't sell so fast, you don't see that he's everywhere everywhere shopping! You don't see him wandering everywhere!" Shanzi is not anxious, grabXu Xing'er's arm, helping her block crowds and crowds, "what do you want to see? There are storytelling, singing and singing and jugplaying in the East, there are storytelling, singing and singing and jugplaying in the East, there are animal selling in the west, animal selling in the west, there are seven miscellaneous miscellaneous things in the south, there are all kinds of things in the south, and there are not sell so fast, you don't see that he eat something." "Let's go to the North first." Xu Xing'er's mind is all about how to make money, and he is not interested in those things. Shanzi thought that Xu Xing'er was hungry, because she didn't eat much breakfast, so she didn't ask more, and took her straight to the north. Xu Xing'er saw everything strange along the way. He stopped to inquire about the price from time to time, and occasionally talked with the stall owner with interest, but he didn't buy anything. It's good that she knows how to handle things. She doesn't disturb those who are too busy to do business. What's more, she doesn't ask for exclusive information. In addition, most of the stall owners are villagers in the neighborhood, so they are honest and honest. It's also kind to see a little girl ask. Shanzi began to see her stop, and quickly took out a copper plate to ask her what she wanted to buy. Later, after several times, he saw that she didn't mean to buy anything, so he didn't pay again and again. After more than ten times, Shanzi finally couldn't help asking: "Xing'er, what do you want to buy?" "Ah?" Xu Xing'er was remembering the price he had just heard. He was interrupted by his words, and his expression was a little dazed. He came back to his mind and said, "I didn't want to buy anything!" "Then you'll ask all the way..." Shanzi said as if he thought of something, looking at Xu Xing'er and asking, "do you want to do business?" "Yes, I didn't tell you that for a long time." Xu Xing'er nodded and continued to move forward. "I thought you were playing!" Shanzi scratched his head to follow her and asked, "what business do you want to do? Do you have capital? Do you know how to do business? Business is not a joke. There are many ways!" "You have so many questions, which one should I answer first?" Xu Xing'er looked around and responded carelessly. Then he saw what he saw and ran quickly. "Er..." Shanzi can't help her. He can only follow her quickly. If he has any problems, he can also say that he can't lose people here. Xu Xing'er stopped in front of a pepper stall, squatted down and looked at the peppers piled on the Caodian. This is different from the peppers you usually eat at home. The peppers you planted in the north are all sharp peppers, big and with a thick skin. Usually, when it's green, it can be dipped in sauce or fried vegetables. When it's red, it can be chopped into chili sauce, or dried and eaten as dried chili. But the pepper on the stall is only the size of an adult's fingers, red and round, which is very attractive. Shanzi saw that she even wanted to see pepper, and she was more and more confused. She didn't know what the girl who didn't play according to the rules wanted to do, so she had to squat down and watch her play with pepper. "Uncle, how do you sell this?" Xu Xing'er looked up and asked. "Two Wen one or two." the stall owner didn't speak much. The business was not good and he didn't shout, but it wasn't because Xu Xing'er was a child that she couldn't afford it. He put out two fingers and said. "Oh, spicy? Can you taste one?" Xu Xing'er asked with a wink. "Taste it, don't cry." the stall owner continued to maintain his speechless facial paralysis. "Yes." Xu Xing'er picked up a pepper, broke it off from the root, and put it directly into Shanzi's mouth. Then he asked, "spicy or not?" Shanzi didn't react at all. When she asked if it was spicy, she felt a burning sensation on her tongue, which spread to the whole mouth in an instant. The saliva began to secrete uncontrollably, and the lips seemed to become thick and numb, and swollen and hot. "Bah!" Shanzi jumped up, spat out the pepper in his mouth, and spat on the ground again and again. The hot and spicy feeling in his mouth still lingered, the nose root was already sour, and the eyes were also gradually moist Do you really want to be crying? Shanzi shakes his head repeatedly in his heart, which is too humiliating. Xu Xing'er didn't expect that the pepper was so powerful, so he quickly turned out the water bag from Shanzi's back basket and gave it to him, "hurry up, wash your mouth, don't swallow it." Shanzi ran to the side to gargle. Xu Xing'er squatted in front of the stall, struggling with how much he wanted to buy and how little money he had. He was afraid that he would not be able to buy this time. He asked, "uncle, do you come to the market every time?" "It depends on the situation." the stall owner replied equivocally. Xu Xing'er sniffed and puckered his mouth. He turned the copper money in his wallet over and over for a long time, and finally clenched his teeth and said, "please weigh half a Jin for me." The stall owner picked up the scale and played with it for a long time. It was not easy to arrange several ropes and lift them up. He picked up some peppers, then squinted to put them up, and moved the weight for a long time. Finally, he looked at Xu Xing'er and asked, "can you use the scale?" "......" Xu Xing'er silently looked at the stall owner, took the scale, weighed half a jin of peppers, pulled down the pocket tied at the waist and poured it in, and then counted out sixteen Wen to pass it. The stall owner took over the copper money and returned one article. Seeing Xu Xing'er's face, he was puzzled and said after a silence: "you weigh it yourself, and you will be charged one article less." "Uncle, you are so interesting. If you have a chance, you can buy your pepper again." Xu Xing'er listened to this and couldn't help laughing. He said that although he was paralyzed and dumb, he was still pretty good. Shanzi used more than half a pot of water to gargle his mouth, and then drank the bottom of the water bottle to the sky. It was just a little slower, but his tongue and lips were still very uncomfortable, as if they were swollen a circle more than usual. "Shanzi Ge, are you ok? I'm sorry, I didn't expect this pepper to be so spicy. Xu Xing'er came up and apologized, "is it better now? I'll get you some water." "It's OK!" Shanzi repeatedly waved his hand to say that he was ok, but his speech was very unsophisticated. He felt like a big tongue. "What do you buy so many peppers for? It's too spicy to eat at all. I just licked it and it was like this..." When Shanzi said that, he suddenly felt a bit humiliated, and quickly explained: "I can still eat pepper at ordinary times, but this pepper is really..." "It's to buy so spicy." Xu Xing'er was embarrassed to stick out her tongue. She knew that this kind of pepper would be spicy. She was afraid that she couldn't bear it before she gave it to Shanzi, but she didn't expect it would be spicy like this. She saw Shanzi's eyes red, but she couldn't help but feel funny. She reached for his sleeve and tried to laugh: "Shanzi Ge, your lips are red." Shanzi's face turned red when he smelt the words, raised his hand to block his mouth, and glared: "it's not all your fault." Xu Xing'er smiled at him pleasantly and said: "my disease is not good. You didn't say you wouldn't let me eat spicy things yesterday. I'm not listening to you!" "I......" Shanzi did say that, and then he thought, "it's just that. Fortunately, you didn't taste it by yourself, otherwise I'm afraid you're going to cry now." "Shanzi Ge, I don't see why there's no one selling pickles and pickles in the market, or we didn't see it? Xu Xing'er saw that Shanzi was not angry, recovered his spirit, and looked around and asked. "Everyone can make that stuff. Most of them make their own food. Who will sell it, even if they sell it, no one will buy it." Shanzi said dismissively, "it's almost done shopping here. Are you hungry? I'll take you to eat Wonton." Xu Xing'er was dragged by Shanzi to the Wonton stall, but his mind has turned to Pickled vegetables. She remembers that in the future market, there will always be a stall with more than ten or more than 20 kinds of pickles, which seems to be very popular. After all, there are few types of pickles that you can make at home. It's rare that anyone can make more than ten jars of different kinds of pickles for their own food. If you want to eat fresh at ordinary times, most of them still need to go out and buy. It's just that I don't know if there's anyone in the city who does such a business. If you have the chance, you should go to the city to have a look.
