Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Chang Sheng's action of covering his clothes was really suspicious, and his fair cheeks turned red.

Liu Yu murmured in her heart, wondering if she was just buying some ointment and was acting like a thief.

"Let's go, let's go shopping, eldest sister is always busy!"

Changsheng turned around first and urged.

People were coming and going on the street, which was not a good place to ask questions. Liu Yu looked at Chang Sheng who was quite embarrassed and ran away.

The two said they were going back, but they walked along the streets of the town again.

There are many vendors setting up stalls along the street. Different from the simple environment in the grass market, there are more sophisticated two benches with wooden boards, and more casual ones, just a cart, or a rag spread out in front of a horse. A stall is gone.

Half of the shops in the town are stalls set up by merchants from other towns, and the other half are discounted goods moved from the shops in this town. They are neatly arranged, clean and orderly.

"Auntie, how do you sell this cotton cloth in your house?"

At the door of the tailor's shop, there was a row of fabrics. An old lady was taking measurements with a ruler.

"The coarse cotton in your hand is five cents a foot. It is bright in color and is best for spring clothes. It is not heavy for young people to wear."

The old lady glanced at it and said cheerfully.

It was actually five cents per foot, and Liu Yu put the pine green clothing material back in her hand.

"How much does kama cost per foot today!"

There are a few pieces of kudzu ruler on the outermost side, the color is dark, mostly indigo, navy blue, and dark green.

"Three cents per foot, these are materials from the old year. If you want more, it can be cheaper!"

It's still cool in spring, so cotton is close-fitting and warm when worn, while kudzu is breathable and not conformable, so it won't be sold until summer. The few pieces sold at this time have some creases and defects.

After asking the old lady to open it up and take a look, Liu Yu carefully picked it up and chose one piece of indigo, two pieces of navy blue, and two pieces of dark green!

Each ruler has about eight feet, which is enough for an adult to make clothes. We have thin jackets and slightly thicker coats at home, which are enough for him and his grandma.

Only Changsheng, Liu Meixiang and Xiaoxue still lack some clothes. There are still a few pieces of cotton at home, which are best used to make spring clothes, but there is no need to spend money to buy more.

The kudzu linen in my hands will be divided into pieces when the time comes. These are used to make summer clothes. They are breathable and sweat-absorbent, so they are the best.

The old lady took the customer's measurements, paid the deposit, remembered the day to pick up the clothes, and left.

As soon as he left, the old aunt only greeted Liu Yu and the two carefully, and measured the size of the cloth. The total was one hundred and twenty cents. The old lady simply accepted only one hundred cents, which was almost a foot cheaper.

Liu Yu's eyebrows were filled with joy when she spent one hundred cents to buy such a lot of fabrics. The fabric blended with kudzu and linen was strong and one piece of clothing could be worn for several years, so it was considered a good deal.

The two paid and the tied fabrics returned to the grass market.

The two of them had already seen it once, and now they walked straight to the place where the stall was set up, which was pretty quick.

"Sister, where are my grandpa and grandma? Xiaoxue is nowhere to be seen!"

Liu Yu and Liu Yu came back with the cloth. Except for Liu Shan who was still baking sesame cakes on the side, Liu Meixiang was the only one left behind the cart. Liu Fusheng, Nian Shi and Xiaoxue were nowhere to be seen!

"Not long after you two left, grandpa and grandma took Xiaoxue home!"

"Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Grandpa and grandma still need to listen to the show after lunch!"

Nian loves to listen to operas and can understand them. The old lady came all the way to the town, not only to worry about a few people, but more importantly, just to listen to the operas.

Liu Yu frowned slightly as he left without listening to his taste, especially if something happened at home.

"We locked all the doors when we came here, but Grandma is worried about the bamboo rat!"

No one is at home, and the old house has no courtyard wall, only a vague fence about the height of a man.

This fence is not high and can't block anything. It also means that I would rather guard against villains than gentlemen.

Liu Yu nodded slightly after hearing this, and then looked at the rattan basket containing the cake embryos. Originally there were hundreds of shortcakes stacked in layers, but after a lot of hard work by several people, only about thirty were left.

The twists were all sold out, leaving only some broken dregs!

Even though the days are getting longer and the nights are getting shorter at the beginning of spring, it still gets dark very quickly. After the sun sets, it gets dark very quickly.

Fortunately, people kept walking towards the stage, and few children could calm down and listen to the play. They shouted loudly and sold a few pieces.

"Third brother, how many sesame cakes do you still have that you haven't sold out?"

Some vendors in the grass market who deal with children have already begun to close their stalls and prepare to go home.

"There are still about ten more!"

Liu Shan took out the dough one by one, threw it on the simple chopping board, and estimated it.

Liu Yu counted the cake shells and said, "We still have more than thirty pieces!"

After reporting the number, Liu Yu discussed with Liu Meixiang that he would buy flour, brown sugar and other items first, and then close the stall and go home, which would be faster!

Liu Meixiang didn't want it, so she handed the money bag to Liu Yu and urged him to go back quickly, saying that no matter whether the remaining shortcakes were sold or not, she would close the stall and go home when Liu Yu came back with flour and other supplies.

Liu Yu thought for a moment and understood why. They had to prepare things to sell tomorrow when they went back. It was really not appropriate to spend all their time here just for a few pieces of shortbread.

After thinking about this, Liu Yu hurriedly took the rattan basket and left. Fortunately, the shops selling flour and brown sugar were all familiar, so she took the rattan basket and ran towards the town.

Liu Yu has quick legs and feet, and the shop is not very busy at the moment. In about two-quarters of an hour, the man came back with a rattan basket full of things.

"Let's go first!"

Seeing Liu Yu coming over, Liu Meixiang greeted Liu Shan, but her hands kept on packing a bunch of things!

Things were quickly taken care of, the three of them bid farewell to Liushan, and headed back with the cart!

On the way, Liu Meixiang told Liu Yu that there were still about twenty shortcakes that were not sold.

Liu Yu nodded, indicating that he understood!

"How much more can we do?"

Liu Meixiang put her forehead together and asked for Liu Yu's opinion.

"It's almost the same as today!"

For the first time today, people from all over the country came to join in the fun. For the second time tomorrow, according to the experience of previous years, there will be far fewer people tomorrow, and it will be troublesome if it is thrown into the hands.

"By the way, eldest sister, the two children following Jiang Huixin today are the two children from the Lin family!"

The matter was discussed, but for some reason, Liu Yu thought of the girl who got on the carriage with the young master again, and looked at Liu Meixiang's expression walking beside the carriage. Seeing that she was in a good mood, she couldn't help but ask carefully.

"Well, that beautiful little girl's name is Lin Shuangshuang, and the brother with the colder eyebrows is named Lin Ling."

Liu Meixiang paused and continued: "Jiang Huixin's ex-husband's family was from Heyanzi. She married a man who later became a scholar. From what Yan said, her ex-husband made a living by copying books when he was still alive. His family was well-off. It’s not bad!”
