Bind the system and take your younger siblings to survive in the disaster years
Chapter 26 Forging an Iron Pot
Li Qingxiu smiled, pointed to the sky mysteriously and said, "No, the old gods can hear what you just said. This is called seeing gods when you raise your head three feet up."
When Li Qingfeng heard this, he clasped his hands and bowed to the sky with a pious expression. "Grandpa Immortal, don't worry! I will definitely not tell anyone."
Li Qingxiu touched his head. This little guy was so cute. "Let's go, we don't have much time, and we still have a lot to buy."
Since he lost his vest in front of Qingfeng Li, Li Qingxiu dragged him back to the market and went straight to the pumpkin stall.
Pumpkin is shelf-stable and can not only be fried and eaten, but can also be made into pumpkin pie and used as complementary food for babies. Yesterday, the bamboo basket was full of pork and she didn't buy it since Li Ziyue was around.
This pumpkin is quite cheap, costing three cents per catty, and each pumpkin weighs about seven or eight catties.
Li Qingxiu was confused. This pumpkin was also a food item and it was so cheap. Why didn’t anyone buy it?
The stall owner who sells melons told her that the pumpkins they sell are shipped from the south and have been on sale for more than half a month. When they first started selling, everyone rushed to buy them.
At that time, the highest price of pumpkins could reach ten cents per catty. Nowadays, almost every household has at least one pumpkin, so it cannot be sold now.
This made Li Qingxiu click her tongue, but no one could bear to eat the same ingredients every day.
Li Qingxiu suddenly thought of her mother. As long as she told her mother that she liked to eat a certain ingredient, that ingredient would be on the table in the next few days, and it would be the kind that she couldn't help but eat.
She remembered that her family’s longest record was of eating water spinach, which she ate for a week in the morning, noon and night. Her brother’s expression changed when he saw water spinach for a long time.
"Sister, why are you smiling?" Li Qingfeng asked confusedly when he saw Li Qingxiu smiling.
"Oh, it's nothing." After Li Qingxiu came back to her senses, she suppressed the longing in her heart and immediately placed the bamboo basket and bought three large pumpkins. It wasn't that she didn't want to buy more, but the bamboo basket was full as soon as the three pumpkins were placed. .
After buying pumpkins, the siblings ran to the alley where they had just been. Li Qingxiu asked Qingfeng Li to guard the entrance of the alley, while she ran into the alley and put the three big pumpkins into the storage compartment.
After thinking about it, I went to another stall and bought four more pumpkins. After two trips, I bought a total of seven large pumpkins, which made the siblings very happy.
I originally wanted to buy some chicken, duck and goose eggs, but after walking around, I didn't even see any chicken feathers, let alone eggs.
She had no choice but to take Qingfeng Li to the drugstore to buy some pediatric diarrhea medicine, mosquito bite ointment, burn ointment, cold medicine and sore medicine. Finally, she thought about it and bought two boxes of lice ointment.
Looking at the large number of medicine bags, Dr. Zhou asked doubtfully: "Why did the girl buy so many medicines?"
Li Qingxiu explained: "It's rare to go out, so prepare some medicine at home just in case."
There was nothing wrong with this, and Dr. Zhou was not in a position to ask any more questions. He just carefully wrote on each medicine package how many bowls of water were needed for cooking and how much water should be boiled.
Li Qingxiu suddenly remembered the injury on her forehead and asked Dr. Zhou to check it.
After examination, Dr. Zhou applied medicine to the wound again. While bandaging it, he said, "It's recovering well. It will be a little itchy when it grows new skin. Remember not to scratch it! If it's really itchy, just pat it a few times." .”
"Okay!" Li Qingxiu responded softly.
I have to say that this medicine is really expensive. Just a dozen or so medicines cost two taels of silver. But I have to buy it, because if I really have to escape, I will inevitably encounter a bump in the road, and these medicines are used to save my life at critical moments.
After leaving the drug store, the siblings went to the grocery store and bought another batch of the condiments they bought yesterday. The most purchased thing was straw paper. They ordered ten bundles at once, and went straight to a bundle of 100 Wenguang straw paper. two.
This thing is extremely expensive. No wonder the original owner always used leaves or bamboo slices in his memory, so no matter how expensive the tissue paper is, you still have to buy it.
She didn't want to use leaves or bamboo leaves to wipe her butt again. Whether it hurt or not, she always felt that it couldn't be wiped clean with leaves and bamboo slices.
Later I also bought a few water bags, three fire bags, two mosquito nets, a large piece of oilcloth and two bamboo hats. These things are also very important when going out.
As soon as they left the shop, they heard the sound of ping-ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong, and Li Qingxiu thought about it before taking Qingfeng Li to the blacksmith shop.
As soon as he entered, he saw an acquaintance, Li Dazhuang's eldest son Li Yuqi. Li Qingxiu then remembered that Li Yuqi in the original owner's memory was working as a blacksmith apprentice in the town.
Qingfeng Li happily ran over and shouted: "Brother Yuqi."
Li Yuqi stopped blacksmithing when he heard someone calling his name. When he turned around, he saw that it was Li Qingxiu and his brother. "It's you, why are you here? What's the matter?"
Li Qingxiu walked forward with a smile: "Brother Yuqi, we want to buy a small iron pot."
"Is the iron pot at home broken?" Li Yuqi asked.
"It's not broken. It's just that I need a small iron pot. Can it be used?" Li Qingxiu said as he looked at the young man in front of him. His facial features were more or less like Li Dazhuang. He was over 1.7 meters tall and had a lot of bruises on his body due to long-term blacksmithing. They are all solid pieces of tendon meat.
Don't ask her how she could tell, because the clothes on Li Yuqi's upper body were soaked with sweat, and the sweaty clothes clung to her skin, so she could naturally see clearly.
Li Yuqi saw Li Qingxiu staring at his body. He turned sideways shyly. "Oh, that's okay. I'll send it to you when the time comes. I just won't be working until tomorrow."
He saw the siblings looking at him in confusion. Li Yuqi explained: "My father came here just now and asked me to quit my job because there was a family emergency."
Li Qingxiu suddenly realized that Li Dazhuang must have estimated that if the water in the well stopped in the past few days, the village chief might let them flee, so he quickly called his son back.
"Brother Yuqi, the iron pot I need is so big, and it needs to be recessed so much. It also needs a handle. Do you think it will be ready when it is ready? How much silver will it cost?" Li Qingxiu asked Li Yuqi with gestures with both hands. .
Li Yuqi scratched his head and went to the counter to get pen and paper. "Qingxiu, you'd better draw it. If you draw it like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to make the iron pot you want."
Li Qingxiu thought so, so she started drawing on paper. The shape of the iron pot she wanted was a bit like a modern one-piece pot.
As soon as she finished painting, the owner of the blacksmith shop came back. Li Yuqi stepped forward and explained to him the iron pot that Li Qingxiu wanted to make, and handed the drawing to the iron shop owner.
A glint flashed in the iron shop owner's eyes. "Little girl, what do you want to use this pot for?"
"The pot is naturally used for cooking." Li Qingxiu looked at the iron shop owner with an expression as if he could do anything else.
