Travel through time and become the wronged stepmother

When Jiang Luorou saw the clerk packing the ink sticks, he pointed at the row of stone inkstones and said to the clerk, "Brother, please take out the row of carved stone inkstones and let us choose."

The bookstore clerk said enthusiastically, "Okay, madam, please wait a moment and I'll get it for you right now." After that, he turned around to get the carved stone inkstones and placed them in front of Jiang Luorou.

When Jiang Luorou saw the stone inkstone placed in front of her, she turned to Ning Zicheng and said, "Zicheng, come here quickly and pick out an inkstone you like."

Ning Zicheng walked to the counter and carefully selected. His eyes inadvertently glanced at the shelf where the inkstones were placed. He saw a Duan inkstone with plum blossoms carved there, quietly placed there. I immediately fell in love with the inkstone with plum blossoms carved on it, and couldn't take my eyes away from it anymore.

Seeing Ning Zicheng standing there for a long time without seeing him make any decision, Jiang Luorou looked towards Ning Zicheng. Ning Zicheng was seen staring blankly at the shelves with an expression of obsession. Jiang Luorou still didn't understand anything. Following Ning Zicheng's gaze, he saw a row of carved Duan inkstones and made up his mind. idea.

He looked at the book store clerk and said politely: "Excuse me, little brother, please bring the carved Duan Inkstone over there and show it to us."

When the clerk heard this, he turned around and placed the row of carved inkstones neatly in front of Jiang Luorou.

Ning Zicheng reached out without hesitation to hold the inkstone with plum blossoms carved on it and looked at it again and again, unable to put it down.

He turned around and looked at Jiang Luorou with hopeful eyes and asked, "Mom, can we buy this inkstone? Zicheng really likes it."

Jiang Luorou smiled and said, "Since Zicheng likes it, of course you can buy it."

Without any hesitation, he said to the clerk: "Brother, we want this Duan inkstone with plum blossoms engraved on it. As for the paper, we want the cheapest hemp paper. I'll give you a pine penholder and a paperweight." Let’s take two.”

After hearing this, the store clerk immediately started working. After wrapping everything, we started doing the math.

Madam, look at the 200-note brush, and the total of two pens is 400 notes.

A piece of carved Duan inkstone costs 700 coins, and a piece of lampblack ink costs 600 coins.

This is 50 cents for a knife of hemp paper, 150 cents for a pine penholder, 50 cents for a paperweight, and a total of 100 cents for the two.

While talking, he flipped the abacus beads.

It didn't take long before he said to Jiang Luorou: "Madam, look, there are two copper coins in total."

After Jiang Luorou made some mental calculations and saw that the price was OK, she took out two taels of silver from her pocket and handed it to the clerk. I thought silently in my heart that this day's work was in vain. The money flew away before it was warm in my hands.

The bookstore clerk looked at it and saw that there was no problem with the money. When he saw that there was nothing wrong with the money, he put it in the drawer on the counter and locked it. He took the things Jiang Luorou bought and sent Jiang Luorou and his party outside Rongbaozhai to hand over the things. After telling Jiang Luorou to come back next time, he went back to greet other guests.

After Jiang Luorou put away her things, she drove the bullock cart to buy some meat before going home.

When I came to a pork stall, I set up the cart and picked out a piece of lean meat that no one wanted and asked the boss to pack it. When I lowered my head, I saw that there were a lot of pig intestines under the chopping board. This is good stuff. It tastes delicious when braised.

Then he smiled and asked: "Brother, I see there are a lot of pig intestines under your chopping board. How do you sell these pig intestines?"

The owner of the pork shop looked at Jiang Luorou as if he were a fool and said, "Madam, I don't think you can afford meat. Why do you want these things that no one can buy? What's wrong with this?" It's fishy and smelly, and only poor people who are really out of money will buy some. If you want to buy it, here, I'll charge you ten cents for this big pot."

Jiang Luorou nodded repeatedly to indicate that she wanted to buy it, then took out a basin from the bullock cart and packed up all the nearly 30 kilograms of pig intestines.

After buying the meat, Jiang Luorou drove the bullock cart back home.

Jiang Luorou drove the cattle cart into the yard, unloaded the cattle cart, tied the cattle in the cowshed outside, and brought corn stalks for the cattle to eat.

As soon as Ning Zicheng and Ning Zimo got off the ox cart, they carried the newly bought four treasures of the study back to the house to study. After looking left and right, I still didn’t dare to make a move. Ziqing carried a few pieces of pine nut candies and went next door to share them with her little sisters.

Zimo: "Brother, how do you use this thing?"

Zicheng: "I don't know, eh, eh, Ning Zimo, please don't move around. These things are so valuable! What should I do if they are broken?"

When Ning Zimo heard what his brother said, he took back his little hand and didn't dare to move. He said with a distressed look: "Brother, what should we do?"

Ning Zicheng lowered his head and thought for a moment, how about we ask mother first, maybe she knows how to use it?

Zimo nodded in agreement and said, "It makes sense. Let's go and ask my mother right away."

After saying that, the two brothers happily ran out of the house to find Jiang Luorou.

At this time, Jiang Luorou was cleaning the pig intestines he had just bought in the open space outside the gate. There were two big lumps of cotton stuffed in his nose, which looked quite funny.

Ning Zicheng and Ning Zimo happened to see this scene when they came out, and couldn't help but laugh while holding their stomachs.

Hahaha, brother, do you think my mother looks like a little pig?

When Zicheng heard this, he raised his hand and hit Ning Zimo on the head, saying, "Why are you talking? Please apologize to your mother."

Ning Zimo covered the head that hurt after being hit by his brother and said, "Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that you look like a piglet."

Jiang Luorou couldn't sit still after hearing this, "Ning Zimo, are you looking for a spanking? If you have the guts, just say it again and see if I don't spank your little butt."

As he spoke, he threw the almost washed pig intestines into the basin and washed his hands with clean water. He picked up the stick and walked towards Ning Zimo. Just like this, the two people, one big and one small, chased each other outside the gate and played around for a while.

Then he stopped and asked, "Zicheng, Zimo, do you two have anything to do with me?"

Zicheng held back a smile and pointed at Jiang Luorou's nose and said, "Mom, can you take out the cotton from your nose before you speak?"

When Jiang Luorou heard this, she touched her nose and couldn't help but think, so that's it. No wonder I was a little out of breath when I was chasing Ning Zimo just now. Damn it, what a loss, if it weren’t for these two pieces of cotton, I could have chased him for two streets without even catching a breath. He pulled the cotton out of his nose and said angrily to Ning Zicheng, "Can we tell what happened now?"

Ning Zicheng saw that Jiang Luorou's expression was not right, so he immediately said without hesitation: "Mom, we don't know how to use the pen, ink, paper and inkstone we bought, so I just wanted to ask mom if you can use it."

Jiang Luorou thought for a moment after hearing this, as if she had never used these things before. But you’ve never eaten pork, and haven’t you seen a pig running? She has been seen in many TV series. He said to the two of them without confidence: "Of course I can, let's go, I'll teach you two how to use it."

After that, he led the two children towards the main room.
