Lin Qiao looked up and saw that this cloth shop had already played quilts, so he asked, "How much is a quilt?"

The man smiled and asked, "How many catties of quilt do you want?"

Lin Qiao also said with a smile, "Don't make it too thick, just a bigger quilt is fine."

The weather will only get hotter and hotter. There is no need to buy a thicker quilt. Just buy a bigger quilt. Half cover and half cushion when sleeping. With a small body like Brother Bai, it should be no problem.

In the end, Lin Qiao spent another two hundred Wen to buy a quilt.When the two left the cloth shop, the second gangster hugged the quilt and asked puzzledly, "Won't the second boss cover you with a quilt?"

Lin Qiao stopped, looked at Xiao Erhei, and said seriously, "Erhei brother, you should have heard from your mother about my situation. Can you not tell others about today's incident?"

The ancients paid the most attention to reputation. If the Chu family knew that he was selling clothes, fungi, and bought these tattered clothes and quilts, what would they think?

Xiao Erhei asked weakly, "Can't you even tell my mother and brother?"

Lin Qiao sighed, this kid is honest at first glance!Some people say yes in front of you, then turn around and tell about you.And people like Xiao Erhei, who will ask who they can talk to, should be reliable.

So he nodded, "Your mother and brother are fine, but others are not, especially those gossips!"

When passing by a rice shop, Lin Qiao remembered that Chu Er Er had locked the door and there was nothing to eat, so she wanted to buy some rice or something.

So he dragged Xiao Erhei into the rice store again, and after asking, he found out that the price of the porcini just now was really high, the broken rice here is only three pennies a catty, the sifted rice is only five pennies a catty, and even glutinous rice is only Eight pennies a catty.

Lin Qiao bought five catties of broken rice and five catties of rice.In the end, the two returned to Li Dahei's ox cart with big bags and small bags.

Seeing that they had bought so many things, Li Dahei hurried over to put the things on the car, while Xiao Erhei took out the oiled paper bag from his bosom, and said, "Brother, meat buns! The new wife of the Chu family bought it, and it's still hot! Eat it quickly!"

Li Dahei glanced at the six big buns in the oil-paper bag, swallowed, and said, "How can you want someone else's stuff? There are still so many? Return it quickly!"

Lin Qiao: ...There are such honest people in the world?

So he smiled and said, "You guys have helped me so much. You sent me in a bullock cart and took me to Brother Zhuzi. Brother Erhei also helped me hold my stuff for a long time. What's the matter with eating a few buns?" ?”

Seeing that Li Dahei still didn't pick up the buns, Lin Qiao said again, "It's fine if you don't eat buns, then I'll give you the fare, how can you get fifty cents for the round trip?"

After finishing speaking, he pretended to pay for it, but Li Dahei quickly stopped him, and then said, "I eat steamed stuffed buns! Don't show your money outside, it's dangerous!"

Lin Qiao smiled, "Okay! I won't reveal it!"

Xiao Erhei hurriedly handed a steamed bun to his brother, and Li Dahei ate it up in two bites.Thinking about it, it is now this hour, and he must be starving after sitting here waiting for so long!

Xiao Erhei wanted to give it to him, but Li Dahei was unwilling, "I've had enough, let mother and younger sister eat!"

Lin Qiao jumped down from the car and said, "I'll buy some more."

Before Li Dahei had time to stop him, he ran away quickly, thinking while running, this Li Dahei is really nice, not talkative, not greedy for petty gains, and friendly to his family.

Because it was not far away, Lin Qiao ran back to the place where he bought the buns in a short while, and bought ten vegetarian buns and ten meat buns, planning to keep five vegetarian buns and five meat buns for himself, and give the rest to Li. brother.People like Brother Bai who have not had enough to eat for a long time will probably suffer from diarrhea if they only eat meat buns.

Lin Qiao directly stuffed the oil-paper bag containing ten buns into Li Dahei's arms, and said with a smile, "It's hot! Eat it!"

Seeing that Lin Qiao still had a pack of buns in his hand, Li Dahei no longer declined.

On the way back, Xiao Erhei approached Lin Qiao and asked weakly, "Where did you find that fungus? Can you take me there?"

Before Lin Qiao could speak, Li Dahei said, "Stop asking, if you want to find the fungus, you can find it yourself!"

This Li Dahei is an honest man!Lin Qiao guessed that the reason why Dahei said that was probably because the people here found some fungus somewhere, and they probably wouldn't tell others. If everyone went to pick it up, wouldn't they lose their money?

But Lin Qiao doesn't care about this, let's make money together!

So he smiled and said, "I'll take you there tomorrow."

Xiao Erhei was so happy that he could see his teeth but couldn't see his eyes, so he nodded vigorously and said yes.

When they returned to Xiaolinzi Village, the sun was almost setting. Lin Qiao, the second gangster, had finished carrying his basket and made an appointment to meet tomorrow.

Lin Qiao carried the basket on his back and walked towards the gate of Chu's courtyard with the quilt in his arms. He nodded to the person guarding the door, but the person still stared at him dumbfounded. Lin Qiao ignored him and continued walking in.

After entering the compound, he walked towards Chu's second courtyard. Chu's second courtyard was a little further inside, and he just passed Chu's first courtyard.

After entering the small courtyard, he saw that the door of the new house was still locked. It seemed that Chu's second son hadn't come back yet, and Lin Qiao didn't care, as long as the Chu family didn't come to trouble him.

He didn't dare to eat more vegetarian steamed buns for dinner, so he ate one, fearing that he would feel uncomfortable if he changed his eating habits suddenly.After eating the buns, he looked at the dirty clothes on his body and wanted to take a bath. There was a well in the yard. Tired!

Lin Qiao hoisted two buckets of water up, cleaned the pot, and went to the utility room. Seeing that there were only a few firewood, he thought that he would have to go to the forest to chop some firewood tomorrow.

After all, the Chu family is much better than the Bai family. Not only is there a well in the yard, but the bathtub used for bathing is also the big bathtub that I saw on TV before, but it is not so beautiful.

Lin Qiao took a nice shower in the utility room, and washed the dirty clothes. He didn't dare to hang the clothes in the yard. Looking at the cloud in the evening sky, it might rain.

In the kitchen he set up a shelf out of stools and hung his clothes to dry.Just when he was about to go to bed, the courtyard door was pushed open with a "squeak", and in the faint light outside, he saw a woman walking in. When the woman got closer, he saw clearly that it was Mrs. Chu.

Aunt Chu said with an unhappy expression, "Why don't you light a lamp?"

Lin Qiao was helpless, he also wanted to light a lamp!But the problem is that there is no light!Chu Er Er locked all the rooms, leaving the kitchen, utility room and toilet unlocked.

Seeing that Lin Qiao didn't speak, the woman said angrily, "I'm asking you something! Didn't the Bai family teach you the rules?"

Lin Qiao said lightly, "I think you should also know that your second brother has locked the door, where can I find a light?"

The woman choked, and said after a few seconds, "Where have you been today? You haven't seen anyone all day."

Lin Qiao said directly, "I didn't have anything to eat at home, so I went to the mountain to pick mushrooms."

The woman was choked again, and she became a little angry, "There is no food, you won't come to us?"

You clearly know that I have nothing to eat, and you haven't seen you give me food!Lin Qiao replied unceremoniously, "I have hands and feet, and I don't want to cause trouble for you!"

The woman sneered, "Aren't you Bai family all greedy? You make it sound like you have a lot of backbone."

Lin Qiao did not show any weakness, "My surname is Bai, but I am not greedy."

The woman continued to sneer, "Didn't you be greedy and open your mouth to ask for 300 taels of dowry? You asked for so much dowry, but you didn't even give a dowry, so you brought a broken package. It's really shameless. "

Now Lin Qiao felt a little guilty. Although he was not the one who took the dowry, in ancient times, this natal family did not behave decently, and the anger of the husband's family must be spilled on the young daughter-in-law who married.

After thinking for a while, he "bah" in his heart again, he is a big man from his natal family and in-law's family.

So he straightened his waist and said with backbone, "300 taels, right! I will pay it back to you."

The woman continued to sneer, "With your poor appearance, how can you get back 300 taels? Just dream!"

This woman's mouth is too annoying, Lin Qiao burst into anger, "Then let's make a written statement, and I will pay you back 300 taels, and you will give me a divorce letter!"

Aunt Chu stopped talking immediately, and left with a "hum".

Lin Qiao didn't think that she was overwhelmed by her rhetoric, nor did she think that the Chu family wanted him to stay as a husband and wife.The reason why sister-in-law Chu didn't answer his words, and didn't take the letter of divorce in exchange for the dowry money, was probably because she couldn't bear the opportunity for the Chu family to flourish.

Lin Qiao didn't bother to think about these bad things anymore, so he put the stool together. He learned the experience and lessons from last night, and went to the utility room to get a few more stools, put together a bed with a suitable length and width, and spread the new quilt he bought , and then lay down.

It feels so comfortable to stretch your hands and feet!Lin Qiao sighed for a while, then thought again, should I try my superpower again?If you can really control the light, then if you want to go to the latrine at night, you don't have to worry about not being able to see and fall into the pit.

While there was still a little light outside, Lin Qiao concentrated on staring at the black spot on his wrist. After staring at it for a long time, there was no such big change as in the daytime. The sky seemed to be getting darker, but when he relaxed, It's not getting any brighter!

He repeated it several times, but there was still no change, and at this time the outside could not be seen clearly at all, so Lin Qiao had to give up, close his eyes and go to sleep, meditating in his heart, Bodhisattva bless me to go back to modern times tomorrow morning.
