Chapter 22 I'm afraid I'm just dreaming



"Tsk!" Tang Youyou sneered.

I turned around and found Tang Wu with his head down, not saying a word.

Patted him: "He has gone far away!"

Tang Wu raised his head suddenly, and Tang Youyou realized that his face was red and blood was dripping out.

"Tsk tsk, he's still such a pure little boy!"

That’s right, Tang Wu is nineteen years old this year and still unmarried.

When Tang's mother gave birth to Tang Youyou, she was injured and had to recuperate for many years before she gave birth to Tang Wu. Therefore, there are only three siblings in their Tang family.

Tang Wu's face turned even redder, and he stamped his feet: "Sister, you are still making fun of me!"

He was not a fool, so he naturally understood what his sister had said. It turned out that the woman was looking for her lover.

Tang Youyou smiled slightly, took out ten copper coins from his purse and handed them to him: "Your eldest nephew Ruoyi is outside the city. Go buy some meat buns and wait for me outside the city."

She wanted to inquire about the prices and compare which was cheaper in the mall or in real life. The money she had worked so hard to earn should be spent wisely.

After a quarter of an hour, I was so happy that my steps became lighter.

It turns out that the goods in the mall are much cheaper, so this is a good deal for me.

I looked at the straw sandals in the basket and found that they were not thrown away. My daughter-in-law had spent a lot of time and effort to weave them. They could be used as slippers in the house.

I found a place that sold backpacks, spent fifteen cents to buy a big backpack, and carried the backpack to an empty alley.

After looking around, he worked for a while and smiled happily as he looked at the clothes in the basket.

"It feels so soft and thin, so comfortable! And this style isn't ugly either."

That's right, she bought two sets for each family member, a total of sixteen sets including her parents, for just over one or two taels of silver. If she had bought it in a store, it would probably have cost several taels.

Suddenly, an idea popped up in my mind: "I can resell it. It would be a waste if I don't make some money!"

She slid the panel again and was stunned. Purchase limit?

After thinking about it, she shook her head. Maybe it was the mall’s self-protection mechanism. If everyone was like her, it would have been in chaos long ago.

Don’t think about it anymore, don’t think about it anymore. Just live your life peacefully and don’t think about taking shortcuts.

“I click, I click, I buy, I buy…”

After a moment, he looked at the six taels of silver left in his hand and the pile of things, and curled his lips.

Mumbling to myself: "Haha...are you addicted to shopping?"

After tidying up, he bought two large bamboo baskets in the mall, put all the small things into the backpack, and the rest into the baskets, then swaggered out of the alley carrying the two large baskets.

There were a lot of people talking behind the scenes.

"My God, this woman is so strong!"

"Is she moving? Wow! Her iron pot is so shiny, I wonder where she bought it?"

"He looks thin, but I didn't expect him to be so strong!"

"I look like a refugee. Look, I'm wearing straw sandals and my clothes are all patched up!"

Upon hearing this, some people began to have inappropriate thoughts and followed Tang Youyou closely.

"Mom!" Bai Ruoyi stared at the city gate closely, and exclaimed in surprise when he saw the person coming.

When I was about to take her bamboo basket, I found that I couldn't lift it with both hands.

Tang Youyou smiled slightly: "Did your uncle find you?"

Bai Ruo scratched his head: "Uncle? I didn't see it."

She raised an eyebrow and came to the oxcart carrying her things. She caught a glimpse of someone hiding in the corner, sighed, and pointed to the location: "See? The one wearing straw sandals!"

Bai Ruoyi ran over quickly, a little embarrassed: "Um...are you really my uncle?"

Tang Wu pursed his lips and walked towards Tang Youyou.

I muttered to myself: This nephew is quite alert? He actually suspected that I was a beggar.

"I said, you're almost twenty, and you're so unreliable!"

"Sister, you've wronged me!"

The three of them got on the ox cart, and Tang Wu told Tang Youyou everything.

The latter laughed so hard that he fell backwards.

"Hahaha... I forgot you two had never met before. Ruoyi, you're quite alert!"

Then he looked at Tang Wu: "Where are the buns I asked you to buy?"

Tang Wu took out the ten copper coins and handed them to her: "Sister, why are you spending that money? I had breakfast this morning and I'm not hungry!"

Something touched Tang Youyou's heart, she sighed slightly, and took it.

"Huzi, come sit over here and teach me how to drive this ox cart!"

Bai Ruoyi directed Tang Wu, and the two of them whispered to each other and laughed out loud.

Tang Youyou opened the panel and started swiping again, buying a set of clothes and two pairs of shoes for her younger brother.

Thinking about eating dumplings today, she bought some green onions. As for meat, she didn't buy any. Didn't they have wild boar at home? She had never eaten it.

Leaning on a bamboo basket, humming a little tune, I met people from the same village on the way.

"Hey, isn't this Hu Zi? Come and give me a ride!" A woman was so happy that it was almost dark when she walked back.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at the ox cart, unable to hide the jealousy in their eyes.

"Widow Tang, where did you get the money to buy all these things?"

Tang Youyou said lightly: "I killed two wild boars!"

"Hiss!" Everyone gasped, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Several women grumbled loudly, "Widow Tang, please tell Hu Zi to stop! How are we going to get up there?"

Tang Youyou glanced at the group of people and sneered inwardly: "This is the ox cart of the Bai clan leader. If you want to ride it, you can, but you have to follow the rules. It's two coins per person!"

"What? Why don't you just go and grab it?"

"Yeah, we're all from the same village, so what's wrong with you taking us with you?"

"Widow Tang, you are so unkind. Since this is the Bai clan leader's ox cart, you have no right to stop us from riding..."
