Chapter 26: Going to the Market
Madam Song was convinced by Xiaoxiao. Counting the embroidery pieces she had accumulated over the past few days, there were at least seven or eight pieces. Usually, she could get someone to sell them for six copper coins each. If one piece could save a copper coin, wouldn't she be able to buy a handful of seeds if she went to the market?
Xiaoxiao continued, "Mom is the best! Mother, please agree with me!"
Madam Song couldn't stand her pretending to be obedient and nodded without hesitation. Xiaoxiao immediately cheered and rushed out to tell her brothers the good news. Ning Erlang almost jumped out of laughter. Although Ning Dalang was more reserved, he was also overjoyed.
One of them was not even 14 years old, and the other was only 15 years old. In the modern era, they would still be children. Xiaoxiao suddenly felt like she had a mission to care for a child. Her gaze made Ning Erlang anxious.
After knowing that Xiaoxiao and her brothers were going to the market the next day, Rong Yan thought for a while and arranged for the guards to prepare and travel with them.
Hence, Xiaoxiao did not need to squeeze into the ox cart with the others in the village. The Zhao family had a cart that specialized in delivering prey. They placed the jars on the carts and went there with ease.
The market was in the county, an hour's journey from Fortune Village. The journey was easy for the farmers. If not for the fact that there were many things and they were heavy and easy to break, they would not use the ox cart.
Before they came out, Madam Song generously gave them two coins each to spend. The two brothers gave their coins to Xiaoxiao. At this moment, Xiaoxiao shook the small pouch containing the copper coins.
If someone else did this, Rong Yan and even Yun Yi would probably think it was vulgar. However, it was filled with naivety and interest when it was Xiaoxiao's action. Of course, with the burrito she had specially prepared for everyone, the feeling was even stronger, as thick as sauce stuffed into the crust of the burrito.
Xiaoxiao was too embarrassed to accept the kindness of others for nothing. Therefore, before she left, she specially baked many rolls. She even used the remaining wild boar meat to express her gratitude for making meat sauce. She wrapped it in tender bamboo shoots and rolled it up, one for each person as breakfast.
She had even left some for her parents in the kitchen. She had stuffed meat sauce into the steamed buns even if they couldn't bear to eat it and deliberately ate the steamed buns. She couldn't bear them to treat themselves badly!
The morning in March was still a little cold. As they bit into the hot meat sauce burrito, everyone felt that they were not traveling, but walking in spring. Yun Yi praised sincerely, "This burrito is delicious. I feel warm all over after taking a bite."
Xiaoxiao waved her hand generously. "If you like it, I'll make more next time!"
Rong Yan paused. Was she planning to make every meal for him?
The relationship between them seemed to be incalculable. How could this be good?
Xiaoxiao smiled at him. "Thank you for the medicine. It's useful. My wounds have disappeared!"
He glanced at Xiaoxiao's hand. There was only a red mark left on the original bump. She looked much younger than him, but her fingers were rough and dry. She looked different from the women he had seen before.
It was her hands that made delicious roasted bamboo shoots and noodles.
The road to the county was very far. He had practiced martial arts since he was young and didn't think much of it, but he never thought that Ning Xiaoxiao smiled all the way and didn't complain about being tired.
This girl was different from the people he had met before.
The pancakes she made this morning were stored in the space, and she received 100 points, so Xiaoxiao was in a very good mood.
A portion of bait cost 20 points, and 100 points could be exchanged for five portions of bait. A portion of bait could also catch several fish, and the pickle-boiled fish would cost many points. In that case, wouldn't she quickly become a big spender of points? Would there be endless fish at home?
