I became the villain's deceased wife

Chapter 16: Visiting the Market

At this time, Song Tian and Xie Yunzhe were also studying the pendant.

It was gray with a hint of metallic luster, and had a strange shape that looked a bit like a dragon and a snake. In fact, in Song Tian's opinion, it was almost the same as an earthworm.

There are two small bumps at the head and tail, coupled with the twisting shape and small shape, not to mention it's a bit ugly and cute.

"This one……"

Xie Yunzhe took the small pendant, which was not much bigger than a fingernail, in his hand and said curiously:

"Did your mother leave it to you?"

Song Tian nodded: "Song Daxing said yes."

Xie Yunzhe's eyes were dark:

"I think I've seen him somewhere before. He looks familiar."

But where had I seen him before?

I can’t remember it at the moment.

Song Tian asked curiously: "Have you seen it? Do you know what it is used for?"

Xie Yunzhe shook his head: "I don't know."

He just felt like it seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it, so how could he know its use?

"Put it away. Song Daxing said your mother came here to escape being hunted down. I'm afraid this thing will bring disaster."

Otherwise, Song Daxing would not have kept it so carefully and dared not show it to others.

Song Tian also felt that this matter should not be publicized. She didn't know the identity of the original owner's biological mother, nor did she know why she was being hunted down. It would be better to hide this thing carefully.

She put the pendant back into the box and put it in her arms.

"Go home?"

Xie Yunzhe didn't take this matter to heart and asked Song Tian.

Now that he knew that Song Tian returned to her parents' home to ask for money to subsidize the Xie family, his impression of her improved a little, and his words were more sincere.

Song Tian felt that this man was actually quite easy to get along with when he was not crazy.

What's more, he also used the money to buy buns for himself.

"I came to the market to buy something. Do you know where I can change some coins?"

She asked Xie Yunzhe.

"By the way, thank you for buying me some buns just now. Didn't we give all the money in the family to mom? How come you still have some on you?"

She thought that there was only so much money in the family, and he should have kept these coins for emergencies. It would not be good to spend them on others, so she would return them to him after changing them into change.

Xie Yunzhe was silent for a moment, then said:

"Actually, those ten copper coins were the money you used to wash clothes a few days ago. Mom gave them to me last night and asked me to take you to buy some things and bring them back to her home this morning..."

After much thought, Liu decided that she should bring them some gifts.

But Hao'er needed one or two taels of silver to change the medicine, and there were only a dozen copper coins left. She was afraid that Song Tian would feel shabby, so she secretly gave it to Xie Yunzhe.

However, on the way to the Song family, Xie Yunzhe did not speak.

Song Tian glanced at him and didn't expect that the villain would also feel embarrassed.

"You've seen what happened at the Song family. It's a complete waste to buy them things. It's better to buy them buns!"

She touched her stomach, which finally felt full, and comforted him.

The two men found a money shop and exchanged a silver ingot for loose silver and some copper coins, planning to go to the vegetable market to buy some.

Xie Yunzhe didn't have to go to work today, and Song Tian thought that he could help carry things, so she went with him.

"Here are ten taels for you. Didn't mother say that she owed Uncle Nine eight taels? When you pay me back, buy some gifts and take them with you. After all, you are asking someone to do something for you, so you can't miss a thank-you gift."

Song Tian stuffed a silver ingot into Xie Yunzhe's hand.

Xie Yunzhe was a little surprised:

"This is what your mother left for you!"

Song Tian had to break off the engagement to get back the one hundred taels, and he felt it was too lucrative to accept.

Song Tian felt that he was a little pretentious.

"I am the daughter-in-law of the Xie family, so of course I am also a member of the Xie family. Doesn't my money belong to the Xie family?"

Xie Yunzhe pursed his lips and wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Song Tian again.

"You also said that we are now in the same boat. We owe debts to others, so it is better to pay off the foreign debt as soon as possible."

Xie Yunzhe thought about it.

My mother was a strong-willed person all her life and she never asked anyone for help. She always talked about the eight taels of silver she owed to Uncle Nine, and I guess she cared about it very much.

"Thank you!"

He thanked Song Tian and put the silver away.

Song Tian felt that Xie Yunzhe was not a bad person by nature. If she put herself in the Xie family's shoes, Xie Yunzhe would be grateful for her consideration.

But how did he become such a villain later?

Maybe some unexpected experience changed him.

The two bought a basket and some buns to take back for Liu and Haoer.

Song Tian walked around the vegetable market and bought a head of cabbage, a pound of pork, fifteen pieces of tofu, a can of soybean paste, and a can of rapeseed oil...

After a while, the basket on Xie Yunzhe's arm was full, and he was holding a jar of bean paste in his right hand.

"Although the weather is not hot, this much tofu will go bad in a few days if we can't finish it."

he reminded.

I just felt that Song Tian had been short of money for too long, and once he had money in his hands, he couldn't help but buy things.

He thought that there was still a long time to come, and although the remaining money seemed a lot, it was necessary to spend it slowly and steadily.

But on second thought, the money belonged to Song Tian after all, and he had no right to interfere.

Song Tian had already walked to a vegetable stall and bought a lot of garlic and ginger.

"I'm not just buying these for food. I'll make some snacks and set up a small stall in the market to earn some money to supplement my family income."

She looked around at the seasoning stall again, but didn't find what she wanted, so she asked the owner if he had any chili peppers for sale.

The boss frowned:

"WTF?"

"Chili! Don't you have any?"

A magical species that has conquered the taste buds of almost everyone in the Chinese nation.

The boss's brows furrowed even more tightly.

"I've never heard of it. Go ask at another stall."

Song Tian looked back at Xie Yunzhe in confusion:

"You don't have chili peppers here?"

How will she start her snack business? Chili is the condiment of the soul.

Xie Yunzhe also looked puzzled:

"What does this pepper you're talking about look like? I've definitely never heard of it."

Song Tian was a little disappointed. Chili peppers were not native to China, but imported from foreign countries. It seemed that they were not available in the era she traveled through.

"So...what seasoning would you like to use if you want spicy food?"

she asked again.

If you don't have chili pepper, try a substitute first.

After all, spiciness is the soul of the dish.

"For spicy food, in addition to onions, ginger, garlic, there are also peppercorns and dogwood."

Xie Yunzhe answered very seriously.

If the snack stand that Song Tian mentioned can really work, the situation at home might be a little more relaxed.

Song Tian bought some pepper and dogwood from the boss, and then went to the ironware stall.

She wants to buy a pot.

"Such a small frying pan costs eight hundred coins!"

Song Tian was once again shocked by the prices of goods in that era. You know, a meat bun only costs five cents, and it’s not an enamel pot or medical stone.

"Miss, you don't know that ironware is under the jurisdiction of the government. Don't underestimate this small pot. The tax alone is three or four hundred coins. Add to that the pig iron and manpower. I can't make much money!"

The stall owner was a sturdy man in his thirties, who complained to Song Tian with a bitter face.

Song Tian thought to herself, I don’t trust you at all, but she still paid for it with great reluctance.

"This one……"

Xie Yunzhe curiously looked at the iron plate which was less than 40 centimeters in diameter and had handles on both sides.

"pot?

What is it used for?

Song Tian still felt pain as she counted the remaining change.

"Fried tofu."

As he said this, he looked at the things on Xie Yunzhe's body.

"We've almost finished shopping, let's go home."

She hadn't even made any purchases yet, and only a dozen copper coins were left of the two taels of silver. If she continued buying, the silver would probably be gone before she could even warm up to it.
