The female supporting role has arrived on the battlefield

Chapter 87 The Cheap Son With Insufficient Kidneys ([-])
It's not that she doesn't want to be rich, but that the town is too small. If it was in the capital, it is estimated that this style could sell for three figures, but here, 20 taels is about the same.

Let the shopkeeper enjoy some sweetness first, and if you want to cooperate next time after earning money, she will find a way to keep her as a talent, needless to say.

With 20 taels of silver in his pocket, Ji Ning just took Jin Heng to the study, selected a few enlightenment books, bought a few dollars of the cheapest paper, and left the study.

Jin Heng firmly held the bamboo basket in his arms, which contained the Three-Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand-Character Classic, as well as paper for him to practice calligraphy.

Thinking that he can also go to school to study like the stone in the village head's house, Jin Heng is full of expectations.

Ji Ning glanced at him, saw that the corner of the cheap son's mouth could not hide the smile, and his complexion changed into a embarrassed sigh: "Heng'er, do you know that mother thought about the style of the clothes, and she thought about it for several months before she came up with one. plant, and haven’t exchanged much silver, I guess the money left now is not enough to buy many things.”

Cheap son's face was startled, and his hand holding the basket tightened.

"Mother, how about... why don't we return the book? Heng'er doesn't need to study."

"No," Ji Ning refused without even thinking, "Mother doesn't require you to obtain academic fame, but at least you must be able to read and understand. After you can't read, you can only do some hard work, but if you can read, you can do some easy work in the future. This is not only Mother's idea, but also your father's wish. Don't say that there is no money for you to study, Mother will let you study even if she loses everything."

Of course, it is impossible to go bankrupt, and you can't sell it for a few pennies.

The two walked around for a while, and it was now noon, and they could smell the aroma from the restaurant as they passed by, and there were even many people in the surrounding stalls.

Just as he was about to leave, unexpectedly there was resistance from behind him. When he looked down, Jin Heng stood there in a daze, staring straight at the stall not far away. It was a noodle stall. Serve the noodles to the guests, and those guests can't wait to bow their heads and start eating.

The sound of xilihulu made people feel hungry.

"Want to eat?"

Jin Heng came back to his senses and shook his head when he heard what Ji Ning said, and saw Ji Ning pulling him towards the noodle stall.

"Boss, how do you sell this side?"

"A bowl of plain noodles costs five cents, adding scorpion seeds costs three cents more, and laying eggs costs two cents more."

Ji Ning nodded: "Then get me a bowl of plain noodles."

The boss was taken aback: "A bowl?"

"Yes, let's eat together."

The boss opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything. After all, the people who come to the small stalls to eat are usually ordinary people, and they can't wait for a penny to be broken into eight petals. All the adults who arrived were reluctant to eat, sitting on the sidelines and watching the children eat.

It is impossible to increase the serving size. After all, there are customers watching. The poor are very fussy about this. They just give them an extra spoonful of soup and then hand them an empty bowl.

Ji Ning took the initiative to divide the noodles into two equal portions, and then put the lying egg in Jin Heng's bowl. After thinking about it, he went to a side stall and bought a bowl of wontons. The two did the same split equally.

Originally, the portion of one bowl was enough to feed one person, but it was divided into two portions, even Ji Ning could finish the meal, plus a few wontons, it was considered as a little meat dish.

Seeing this, Jin Heng also divided the boiled egg in the bowl into two halves, put one piece into Ji Ning's bowl.

Ji Ning didn't refuse, and looked at cheap son with admiration: "Our Heng'er is really good, so we can eat two things by ourselves."

It is said to be plain noodles. In addition to the soup noodles, a few slices of green vegetables are added for decoration. It looks good, and the cooked wontons are exquisite and clear.

The mother and son ate quietly without wasting any soup. When they finished eating, the bottom of the bowl was almost as bright as new.

When he went back, Jin Heng rubbed his belly and smiled happily. Even though he was only half full, he felt very satisfied when he thought of the deliciousness of the plain noodles and wontons.

This time, after reaching the city gate, Ji Ning didn't leave, but took Jin Heng to the old man Ma who was driving towards the village ahead.

The Ma family is considered to be the second family in the village with cattle besides the village head's family. They use them to pull carts when they are busy with farming. They only go once a day, leaving early and returning late.

When she came here she was penniless, but now that she has money, Ji Ning certainly doesn't want to work hard on herself.

People in the village looked at Ji Ning's mother and son with some surprises: "Old daughter-in-law Jin, are you bringing a dick to the market? What did you buy?"

Erdan is Jin Heng's nickname, but Ji Ning didn't call it out after he came. The reason why he took it at the beginning was because he felt that a cheap name was easy to support, so he just followed the public and took it.

Ji Ning opened a corner of the basket: "I went to the market to sell some things and bought him two books. We didn't have the money to study, but his father said before he died that at least the bastard must be able to read. I followed His father knows a few words, so he wants to teach Heng'er how to read, at least he must be able to write his own name, right?"

The women thought she was buying vegetables and meat at first, but they didn't expect that she was buying books, and they just looked at each other amused.

Is it necessary to buy three books if I only know a few words?

I heard that a book costs more than a dozen cents, and with that money, it is better to buy a catty of pork to satisfy your hunger!

They just smiled on their faces, but they were thinking that every time Ji Ning went to the market, he went to pawn jewelry. This time, he didn't even buy any food. It seems that he might have finished pawning. He really can't live a life!
Ji Ning saw what the two of them were thinking, and didn't explain. When they reached the entrance of the village, their legs were almost numb from being curled up for a while.

Jin Heng helped her out of the car, and the two of them went home together, put down the basket and went to the kitchen to boil a pot of water.

"Take off your shoes, mother, look at your feet."

Ji Ning put down the wooden basin, still holding a candle and a needle in his hand, and when Jin Heng took off his shoes, he helped him break the blisters.

In the past, the original owner was reluctant to take him on such a long journey, but today it took so long, not to mention Jin Heng, even her body, which is used to rough work, couldn't bear it.

It was still dark at this time, but Ji Ning had to burn the needles on the fire to sterilize them, and Jin Heng's feet were also small, so he had to be careful when picking up the blisters.

Jin Heng watched Ji Ning focus on picking water for him, and remembered that every time Ji Ning went to the market, he would first entrust him to someone close to him in the village, and then send him some grain for his lunch.

And she herself went out early in the morning with a hard-to-swallow black-faced steamed bun, and the sun was setting when she came back, just to save a few pennies.

But today, not only was he willing to buy a few books, he even spent twelve yuan on noodles and wontons because of his greed, and now he is patiently picking up blisters for him. .

After picking out the blisters, Ji Ning wiped his feet, soaked his feet in hot water, and then took off his shoes to check.
