As soon as Li Mingqing and the other two arrived at the market, they saw Da Niu and Xiangdong and several other children sitting at the intersection eating candied haws.

"Uncle, aunt, you are here too."

"Yeah, why are you here? Where's grandma?"

"Grandma and the two aunts went shopping and asked us to wait here."

"Okay, you guys wait here."

After he said that, he took Sun Jiaxue into the market.

Although it is not as big as the New Year’s market, there are still quite a few people.

After all, there is not much work to do so everyone is willing to come out for a stroll.

Niu Niu was wrapped tightly, with only her two big eyes showing, rolling around.

"Daughter, look and see if there is anything you want. Daddy will buy it for you."

Sun Jiaxue smiled and said, "I guess everything is new to him. I've never been here before."

Passing by a stall selling clay whistles, Li Mingqing immediately picked one and bought it, and also bought a clay doll.

The uncle who sells things at the stall is a craftsman, and his sculptures look lifelike.

Seeing that Li Mingqing was so efficient in buying things, he even gave him a clay whistle as a gift.

There are also people who draw sugar figures.

A child next to him was lying on the ground, rolling around and crying, all for a candy man.

The parents standing by looked unhappy.

"If you don't get up, I'm leaving. I don't want you anymore. Find a mother who's willing to buy you a candy man and see who wants you."

After the parent finished speaking, he left. The child who was lying on the ground got up and followed him, crying.

The old man selling candy figures has gotten used to it.

Every time I run the stall, I encounter a few children throwing tantrums.

Some parents buy them for their children, while others simply beat them.

He understands that no one is rich.

Li Mingqing went over and bought a candy man and handed it to Sun Jiaxue.

"Wife, try it and see if it's delicious."

"Why did you buy such a big one? Just a little bit will do. Niuniu can't eat it."

"I didn't buy it for Niuniu, I bought it for you. It's not expensive anyway, only five cents each. Didn't you want it just now?"

Sun Jiaxue just took a few more glances and didn't expect Li Mingqing to buy it for her.

Not only did I buy a sugar man, I also bought some candied haws from the old man next door.

"Brother Mingqing, there's no need to buy candied haws."

"Since you're here, it's a waste of your trip if you don't buy anything."

The people around looked at Sun Jiaxue with envy.

She blushed in embarrassment.

He really treats her like a child, buying her whatever she sees.

After I finished buying, I saw Mrs. Li and others coming towards me.

"Mingqing, Jiaxue, you're here too. What delicious food did you buy?"

"I just arrived a short time ago and haven't bought anything yet."

Yang Daya looked at the things in Sun Jiaxue's hands and said in surprise, "Wow, are you buying this for Niuniu?"

"I bought it for Niuniu and Jiaxue."

Yang Daya has gotten used to it after so long. If it were in the past, she would have said something sarcastic.

Sun Jiaxue asked, "Brother and sister-in-law are back. Let's go eat later."

When Mrs. Li heard this, she wanted to go home quickly.

"Second brother, third brother, do you want to continue looking around or come back to the village with me?"

"Go back."

I wandered around for half an hour and walked around the entire market.

But all three of them came back empty-handed.

The house has everything, nothing is missing.

"We're going to go back first. You guys can take a walk. Or I can take Niuniu home and you two can take your time to look at her."

Li Mingqing handed Niuniu to Li Lizhu and took her back.

"Be good, mom and dad will pick you up soon, go back and play with your sisters and brothers first."

"sister--"

"Oh my goodness, Niuniu can call people now, and she calls so clearly. Come on, Er Niang will take you to play with your sister."

After they left, Sun Jiaxue handed the candied haws in her hand to Li Mingqing.

"Try it, it tastes almost the same as what you buy in town."

He lowered his head slightly and ate one.

It tastes like candied haws, and he doesn't like sweet things anyway.

"Brother Mingqing, I originally thought Dad would come to sell baskets."

"It should be sold in early spring."

"There are only one or two people selling their wares, but I think the baskets my father weaves are more beautiful. If they come, I'm sure someone will buy them."

"We've just finished the autumn harvest, and we don't need the baskets in the winter. In early spring, we're preparing for plowing and planting crops, so many people are buying them."

The two walked around and didn't buy anything.

What they bought were snacks that Li Mingqing bought for Sun Jiaxue.

Rice cakes, fried fruits and fried dough sticks...

"Wife, is there anything else you want to eat?"

"Let's go home."

She felt a little embarrassed as she saw all the adults and children around her staring at her.

Li Mingqing looked at her and smiled awkwardly, "Okay, go back."

Only after leaving the market did she breathe a sigh of relief and relax.

Looking at the people coming and going, Li Mingqing said, "It's much more lively than the town."

“People come from every village.”

"But I see very few people buying things. Most of them just come to satisfy their curiosity."

Halfway through the journey, Li Mingqing heard someone calling his name.

Following the voice, I saw it was Li Xiangxia.

She had just returned from the county town, and when she knew there was a market today, she immediately dragged Li Dahua over.

Li Dahua originally wanted to pull her daughter away, but Li Xiangxia had already trotted up to the two of them.

She looked at the candied haws and sugar men in Sun Jiaxue's hands with envy.

"How can you spend so much money when you don't earn any? You really don't know how to live."

"None of your business."

"Ming Qing, what's wrong with you? You can't spoil your wife like this."

"Just live your own life first before you talk. Your own life is a mess and you still have the time to meddle in other people's affairs. You must be bored."
