The nine aunts on the other side listened and looked at the small bodies of the brothers and sisters (the mules were left in Jimin Hall), and said, "you two should buy some necessary things first. When your grandfather comes back, you can find a chance to enter the city again! Let's cut some meat first. We won't get any good ones later. Would you like to join us

Gu Ye and Gu Ming have no clue about the new year's products. They can only follow Jiu Shu and Jiu aunt. They can buy whatever they buy.

A group of people came to the butcher's shop in the middle of the vegetable market, which was already full of people. Most of them came from the mountains to buy new year's products. Among them, there are several villagers in Qingshan village.

Nine aunts one hand to pull their own daughter, the other hand to Gu Ye, just squeeze into the crowd. With a loud voice, she called to the fat butcher: "brother Li, five catties of fat meat, two catties of lean meat!"

"OK! Sister chrysanthemum, you're just in time. This is the second pig that just came up. It hasn't moved a kilogram! Look, how about this one? " Butcher Li, who was close to Aunt Jiu's family, cut a piece of pure fat meat for her and hung it on a scale. It was five Jin tall. Then he weighed two catties of lean meat, wrapped it in oil paper and handed it to nine aunts.

Nine aunt gave the meat money, pulled Gu Ye to her side, and said in a loud voice, "Xiao Ye Er, what do you want, tell Uncle Li quickly!"

Gu Ye had already taken good care of it. She pointed to a whole piece of fat and thin pork and said, "Uncle Li, please weigh this for me. I'll take it all! And this one, you cut it from here to here. And these four hooves... "

Nine aunts see light that piece of streaky pork, it is enough to have more than ten catties. And the lean meat she wanted, there were five or six catties, and with hooves, there were always twenty catties. And Gu Ye is still in the middle of his mind, and his fingers are stretched out again.

"Xiaoye'er, do you have enough to eat during the Spring Festival?" Nine aunt is afraid that the little girl's heart does not count, with not enough money to spend, can't help but remind one.

Gu Ye, however, nodded his head sincerely: "after eating, my grandfather and my master love meat!" The point is, she loves it!

"What a dutiful child! This pig's hoof is from Uncle Li! " Butcher Li cheerfully weighed the meat for her. He took a pig's hoof from the stall and put it on the weighed meat.

As soon as Gu Ye's eyes lit up, he pointed to the pig's hoofs left on the meat stall and said, "uncle, how can I sell these pig's hooves? And the pig's head and tail... "

Nine aunt quietly pulled the corner of her dress, whispered: "your family has not caught up with the big sacrifice, what pig head to buy? What do pig hooves and tails have to eat except the skin, which is bone? "

Butcher Li also said with a smile, "these pig heads, pig hoofs and pig tails, if you really want them, they will add up to 20 Wen."

"Brother Li, it's not kind of you. You usually give away these fragmentary things, but you open your mouth to accept 20 Wen from my niece. I think Ten Wen is about the same! " Nine aunts know these, in addition to the pig's head is also worth a few Wen, the rest of the usual is to sell meat.

Butcher Li was very good at speaking: "since sister chrysanthemum has opened her mouth, let's have ten Wen. Little girl, there are 15 catties of five flowers, eight catties of lean meat and five Jin of hooves. The total is 1020 Wen

Gu Ye took out one or two pieces of silver and counted 20 pieces of copper. He carried the full harvest and squeezed out the crowd. The price is very cheap. It only costs more than one hundred and twenty silver if it adds up to more than thirty catties of meat.

Only one or two? You should know that the family in the mountains, one year's income, go out to eat and drink can be left two or three Liang is considered to be very careful. Gu Ye has money in his pocket and forgets that he has no money.

Nine aunts see Gu Ye happily put the pig's head and pig's hooves into the bamboo basket. She can't help but complain and say, "you child, you have some spare money in your hand, and you can't spend it indiscriminately. You buy a lot of lean meat, and these hooves and tails. There's not much meat on them. It's too expensive. "

"Aunt Jiu, this lean meat is the tenderest piece of pork tenderest. It's the best way to make fried pork. Pig's head, pig's hoof, pig's tail, marinated with special spices, have a special flavor. When it's ready, I'll give you one. If you've tasted it, you won't say that I'm spending money recklessly. " Gu Ye's previous life has a special love for stewed pig's head, pig's hoof and pig's tail. There's an aunt Yan who can cook at home. She can eat these delicacies again soon!

Nine uncle also followed the round: "since all bought, don't say anything! Let's go to the grain store over there. "

In the grain store, nine aunts were very careful. She only bought five Jin of white flour, but 20 jin of sorghum flour and corn flour. She planted big yellow rice, but she didn't buy it. She bought some red beans and kidney beans. The total cost is less than 300 Wen.

Now the family has little to eat coarse grain, fine grain consumption is very fast, half a month ago bought 50 Jin of white flour and 50 Jin of rice, have eaten almost. Gu Ye is in the grain store again a big purchase: 50 Jin rice, 100 Jin white flour, red beans and kidney beans, but did not dare to buy a lot, because she did not eat bean packets, do not know whether it is suitable for her own appetite. It was another 126 yuan spent.

To the cloth shop, Gu Ye pulled two clothes for his grandfather, master and brother. Seeing the fresh fruit green muslin in the shop, she bought her body again. She wore this cotton padded dress with broken flowers on the red background. It was better to change it as soon as possible. Grandpa's aesthetic, she really can not make complaints about it.There are some defects and defects in the cloth shop. Gu Ye robbed a lot of them, which can be used to make bed sheets and curtains. Seeing her spending money like water, and Gu Ming just indulges her with a smile, Jiu Shu and Jiu aunt can't help shaking their heads. Fortunately, Uncle Wu has been in the army for many years and has some family background. Otherwise, she can't afford the girl's fluttering. Uncle Wu is also really, how can let small leaf palm money? Small leaf this big hands and feet disposition, also don't know who to follow! It must have been taught by Liu!!

How did they know that all the money they spent at night was their own money. In addition to her master's one thousand taels of silver, she also had more than 80 taels of silver!

The vigorous flower, one day down, spent less than five Liang silver. Gu Ye still has some ideas. When he sees a jewelry store in front of him, he pulls Gu Li'er into it. Nine aunt afraid of her spending money, put the purchase of new year goods outside for her man to watch, but also some shrunk to go in.

Inside the jewelry shop, a woman in a gorgeous gold hairpin with her head full of inserts selects jewelry. She was surrounded by a girl of 11 or 12 years old. She was wearing a red robe with crabapples embroidered on her skirt. She was wearing a white fox trimmed cloak, which made her look pretty and lovely. If it is not the face full of impatience and disdain, it can be regarded as a beautiful woman.

"Auntie! What kind of jewelry can you pick out from this broken place? I'm really out of my head to go home with you. Look who these people are, the rustic country bumpkin, can't get on the stage. We are actually picking things together with these lower class people, and we won't be laughed at by those sisters! "

The girl in red swept over Gu Ye's three people, and the expression of disdain on her face was even worse. She quickly looked away, as if to look at them one more time, the soil will spread to her.

The shopkeeper in the shop flashed a little anger in his eyes, but he still said in a friendly way: "this is the best silver bracelet in our shop. The jewels embedded in it are brought back from the coastal waters. If you can see it well, madam, I'll wipe out 52 liang of the change, and you'll be fifty Liang. "

"What? Fifty Liang for this broken bracelet? The best silver bracelet of Tongfang Pavilion in Yancheng is only two or thirty Liang. Are you inlaid with gold The girl's sharp words sounded again. The woman beside her hesitated for a moment and finally put down the bracelet.

The shopkeeper took a breath and said, "our bracelet is not inlaid with gold, but inlaid with ruby which is more valuable than gold. These are all from overseas. If I had this bracelet in Yancheng, I would have sold it for a hundred taels at least. Miss, if it's too expensive, you can have a look at other styles. "

"What do you mean? Look down on people, don't you? You're the jewelry in a broken shop. It's only worth selling to these poor country bumpkin! I think it's just a dyed broken stone. We have money and want to blackmail us! Ten Liang silver! If there is more, say whether you sell it or not! " The girl is arrogant, a pair of "give you ten Liang is to look up to you" expression.

"I'm sorry," said the shopkeeper, putting away the bracelet inlaid with precious silver. "Ten Liang silver is not enough for the price of one of the gemstones. The shop is too simple to enter your eyes. Please move to another store, girl."

"What? You drove me away! Do you know who I am? Do you believe I can't keep your shop open? " Girls are mad, in Yancheng, only because she is a common girl, a group of little sisters look down on her, so she followed her aunt back to her mother's home to relax.

Who knows to come to this broken place where birds don't poop, all kinds of unhappiness don't say, but also by a small jewelry shop manager's gas. She managed to hold back her anger so that she didn't smash the store.

"Qinger, how did your father tell you before you went out? Don't rely on your own life experience to bully others. Why, you forgot? " The woman said with a mock rebuke and a faint smile on her face. "Shopkeeper, I don't want to say whether your gem is real or not. Just say that your craftsmanship is worse than that of Yancheng jewelry shop. Otherwise, I'll pay 30 Liang silver and I'll buy the bracelet. "

"Sorry! Ma'am, fifty Liang is the lowest price. " The shopkeeper didn't want to say more, so he put away the bracelet.

He raised his head and beckoned them to come in for a long time: "what jewelry do you want to buy? I can recommend it to you..."

"Hum! Just these Hicks are so poor that they can't afford to eat. Can they afford jewelry? " The girl was full of anger and had no place to go out. She looked at her old cotton padded clothes, which turned white and turned her mouth.
