Chapter 9: 9

Chapter 9 9 Go to the county town

It was already dark when the siblings came back, "I'm going back in third sister."

Chen Miao was also afraid that he would be beaten back. After finishing cleaning, the sky was completely dark. While eating, he thought that he could breathe a sigh of relief now.

I thought I would go to the county town tomorrow, and it would be too uncomfortable to have no time. There is nothing else to lack, so I will ask the village chief tomorrow.

I also find a way to surround the courtyard wall, and have money in my hands, so I can directly spend money to hire someone. I just don’t know if it’s enough?

It’s comfortable to lie on the warm kang, but it’s still a night of dreams.

The next morning, just packed up, Chen Jiang came over.

"You sit down and have a meal quickly."

"Sister Three, I've eaten it."

“Eat some more.”

I put some oil-consuming food in the porridge I made this time, and the taste immediately became different.

"Chen Jiang, I want to go to the county town."

"Sister Three, I'll go with you."

"Okay, I won't go to the village chief."

The two of them finished the carriage. "Sister San, do you know where the county town is?"

"Do you know?"

Both the siblings shook their heads. "Then let's go and ask the village chief."

Chen Miao followed Chen Jiang and knew where the village chief’s home was next time.

Chen Wufu looked at the brothers and sisters who came in and said, "What's wrong?"

"Uncle Wu, when are you free? I want to go to the county town to buy some seeds, but I don't have any seeds at home."

"What are you missing?"

"Uncle Wu, I want to plant half an acre of cotton, otherwise I can't live the winter."

"Okay, just go today, I'll buy two sickles too."

"Uncle Wu, I'll go back to get a car."

After the siblings left, Chen Wufu's wife came out, "This Chen Miao is different. She used to speak with her head down."

"It's not easy to support this family by one in the future."

"The head of the company bought some salt and lamp oil."

This is a necessity, it is impossible not to buy it.

With Chen Wufu following him, of course he was the one who drove the train.

"Uncle Fifth, I want to surround the courtyard wall. It doesn't matter if the house is broken, but I live alone and I'm really scared of the little donkey.

Uncle Fifth, Shen Jianfeng has left me money. Can I ask someone to enclose the courtyard wall?”

"Your home has no earthen embryos. If you enclose the courtyard wall, you will have to use a lot."

"Well, I think the courtyard wall should be higher."

Chen Wufu understood that a woman was indeed afraid.

"Okay, I'll ask."

Chen Miao knew that the five dollars left for him were not enough to do anything, but he was willing to spend all the money around the courtyard wall. He was really worried and scared at night.

The little donkey is not fast, but it is faster than a human being.

I drove the car directly to the grocery store, "Sister Three, Uncle Five, you go in, I'll watch the car outside."

Chen Miao followed Shen Wufu into the grocery store, and the pungent smell of vinegar came.

"Shopkeeper, give me two pounds of salt and two pounds of lamp oil."

"Okay, let's see what else do you want?"

Chen Miao looked around the grocery store, which was similar to a small shop.

I already know that grocery stores buy seeds, and of course, grain stores also have seeds.

Seeing Chen Wufu paying, Chen Miao leaned over and said, "Shopkeeper, I want to buy half acre of cotton seeds and half acre of sorghum seeds."

"You have come to the right place. Let me tell you that I got these cotton seeds from the Central Plains. One acre of land there can produce seventy or eighty kilograms of cotton."

Chen Wufu was also very excited to hear that his family has a large population. He can plant some cotton in the yard, but there is not much yield.

"Shopkeeper, cotton seeds must be particularly expensive, right?"

"Not expensive, not expensive, the same price as ordinary cotton seeds."

I bought two seeds and gave them fifty copper coins in pain. This is not expensive. I was reluctant to buy anything else, and the courtyard wall said that it would cost money.

When the two came out, Chen Jiang had already fed the donkey and put away the donkey manure. Chen Miao knew that this was a base fertilizer, but to be honest, he was really not used to it.

"I'll go to the blacksmith shop. Do you have anything else to buy?"

"Uncle Wu, Shen Jianfeng has bought all the hoes, picks and sickles from his family. I want to go to the train station to take a look."

"What are you doing at the train station?"

"Just look at it, see what the train looks like."

"There are many people at the train station, so you should be careful." Chen Wufu felt that this girl just missed Shen Jianfeng. Yes, she left just one day after getting married.

"Sister Three, I want to go and have a look, too."

"Okay, you two go. I'll be watching the car outside."

Chen Miao didn't want Chen Jiang to follow him, but this kid had never been to the county town. Forget it, just check the time. Although he couldn't take the watch out, he could use it secretly.

There are many people on the street of the railway station. "I'll stay here and wait for you, hurry up. The boss here is not easy to mess with."

Chen Miao nodded, "Uncle Fifth, I'll go in and take a look."

In Chen Miao's consciousness, there must be time at the train station.

The siblings ran into the train station. But why didn’t they see where there was time? What should I do?

Suddenly, when he saw a beautiful lady, Chen Miao gritted his teeth, "Beautiful lady, can you tell me what time it is now?"

Zhao Manfei looked at the country girl with a headscarf in front of her. She still knew the time? But she didn't say anything. She raised her wrist and looked at it, "It's eleven twenty now."

"Thank you, beautiful lady."

Chen Jiang was quite puzzled, why did the third sister still know the time?

Chen Miao had already known the location of the toilet just now. He said that and ran over and counted in his heart.

I walked around the toilet and quickly took out my watch and squatted down to adjust the time. Then I felt relieved.

The purpose of coming to the county town this time has been achieved.

When he ran to the donkey cart, Chen Wufu was already anxious. "Let's go, we'll go back to the blacksmith shop."

When Chen Miao arrived here, he felt that he could use anything, but because he had no money, he could only take a look.

After leaving the county town, Chen Miao took out the pancakes, "Uncle Fifth, Chen Jiang, you two eat."

"I won't eat anymore, I'll go home now." Chen Wufu was so embarrassed to eat?

Chen Miao stuffed it into his arms, and there were a lot of wild vegetables and salt in the pancake, which was not that hard when it was cold. In fact, as long as they could eat it, the taste was not within their considerations.

When Chen Jiang returned to the village, he went home halfway, and Chen Wufu did not enter the yard. He just lived a life with his little wife. It would be better to pay attention.

"Uncle Fifth, please ask about the courtyard wall. I know every family has earthen embryos. I think I'm not busy yet, so it would be better if I could surround it."

Chen Wufu nodded, "Okay, I'll ask you tomorrow."

Chen Miao had been busy for three hours, and the kang was getting hot, so he took a shower and lay down. Although he sat in the donkey cart that day, he felt very tired.

He had no dreams all night, and after getting up the next day, he still repeated his work. Chen Jiang still came here early, but asked him to eat and say nothing.
