An hour later, Chen Xinli and Shen Fuyou brought two large carts of fruit.
Afraid that it wouldn't be enough to carry the load, he specially found a carriage shop in the town and rented a donkey cart temporarily, which cost him a hundred coins.
The fruits in the space are ready.
Before, when she had free time, Chen Xinli had already picked all the ripe fruits.
If the cart wasn't already full, Chen Xinli could definitely be loaded with more.
In this way, a cart of mangoes and a cart of peaches were sent. When Chen Xinli saw that the bananas were ripe, she specially sent a small bamboo basket of bananas to the merchants.
Holding the twenty taels of silver in her hand, Chen Xinli smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
It feels so good to make money!
The merchants also left happily with the rare fruits.
Chen Xinli and her second uncle bought many daily necessities such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, buns, steamed buns, etc. in the town, spending about seven or eight taels of silver.
When we returned to where we were staying, it was already dark.
Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Zhang cooked a big pot of wild vegetable and rabbit meat soup.
Shen Jinlin looked at the big pot and licked his tongue from time to time.
They had to sleep in the open air along the way and had to worry about not having enough food. Although they could eat game, Zhang and Wu did not dare to cook as much as they wanted.
The children at home are now worried about the food their sister went to buy.
Even Chen Xinyu was no exception. Seeing her little cousin and uncle approaching from afar, she stretched her neck unconsciously.
"Dad, Mom, Second Aunt, we are back. Now we have enough food!" Chen Xinli shouted before she even got close.
"Why did you bring back a cart?"
Mrs. Wu looked at him for a long time, and the more she looked, the more familiar he looked. She looked at her daughter worriedly several times.
Chen Xinli blinked her big eyes, signaling her mother not to worry.
Shen Fugui looked at the familiar cart and shook his head.
But when he saw that Li Xiang and Kuai Wei didn't look at him, he felt relieved.
Shen Fuyou took his eldest brother's hand and quietly told him that his niece had just sold fruit. Although Shen Fugui was a little worried, he also became happy.
He has always been worried that there is not enough money at home!
I didn’t expect my daughter to be so capable!
Alas, it’s not good for a daughter to be too capable. Look at Meng Yun and Jiang Yu next to her, they are surrounding her and asking her questions. The old father’s mind is a little strange.
Chen Xinli helped her family unload the things from the cart and then quickly went around to the big pot.
"Second Aunt, what delicious food have you made? I can smell the aroma of meat from far away."
Zhang smiled and said, "Little greedy ghost, it's rabbit meat soup."
"Okay, okay, let's add some rice and have some rabbit porridge!"
"You know what, I really like the meat porridge cooked by Ali. It has a unique flavor." Shen Fuyou swallowed unconsciously and smiled.
Li Xiang and Kuai Wei thought of the meat porridge they had eaten at the mountain villa that day, and their appetite was aroused.
Meng Yun looked expectant.
Chen Xinli washed two large bowls of rice and put them into the bubbling pot.
When the broth boils, add the rice.
Soon, the aroma of rice mixed with the aroma of meat wafted from the big iron pot.
Chen Xinli and her brothers stayed by the big pot, and the steamed buns they bought were already heated up.
Just waiting for the rabbit meat and wild vegetable porridge to come out of the pot.
"Stay away, it's hot! It's hot!"
Zhang pushed her youngest son away and drove her nephews away from the fire.
Several boys' heads were almost buried in the pot.
Chen Xinli took advantage of Second Aunt's inattention and added some soy sauce and her treasured pepper.
Jiang Yu smelled a pungent smell and sneezed twice inadvertently.
"black pepper?"
Jiang Yu was secretly surprised that this family could afford to eat pepper.
He stared at the girl's direction, lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about?"
Meng Yun slapped him hard and whispered, "When are you planning to leave?"
That night, when Xu Huai came to find him, Meng Yun also noticed it. He thought that it was because of the flood in Xixuan City that this person failed to leave in time. He didn't know whether it would cause trouble.
Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "When it's time for me to leave, I will leave naturally."
"I'm just worried that your presence will cause trouble for their family!"
Jiang Yu's face suddenly became a little gloomy, as if his secrets had been revealed.
Although the road ahead also involves climbing mountains and crossing hills, it is a highway and you will definitely meet other people on the way.
Maybe Xu Huai left someone waiting for him in the city, and he knew how to contact them.
"Hey, what are you two whispering about? Come and have some porridge. There are also these big buns with pork and cabbage fillings. They are delicious."
Chen Xinli was already familiar with Meng Yun, and as for Jiang Yu, she felt that he was a young man with a story.
The young man always has a serious look on his face, and no one knows what kind of sorrow is hidden in his heart.
For Chen Xinli, who has lived a new life, her family's current situation cannot be any worse.
But as long as you are alive, there is hope.
She was eager to reach Shu.
Then I will farm with my family, open a fruit shop, and live a happy life.
With hope in my heart, I look at everything around me in a different way.
I am no longer used to the boy's sad face all day long.
Although he had promised to leave that day, the incident happened suddenly and they were busy hiding from the rain and could not leave him alone.
While they were thinking, Chen Xinli had already walked up to them, "The past cannot be retrieved. Dwelling on the past will only add to your troubles. You must always believe that the future is bright and glorious."
Jiang Yu looked up and was stunned for a moment when he saw the little girl in front of him!
He murmured, "The future is bright and beautiful?"
Chen Xinli: "Although we don't know what happened to you, only when you get out of it yourself can you see the light of this world!"
The boy's gray eyes paused for a moment, as if a hint of color appeared in an instant, and Shen Xinli's face in his sight began to become clear.
He solemnly took off the jade pendant that was close to his body and handed it to Chen Xinli, saying, "Thank you. I will leave after dinner. If you encounter any trouble with the government in the future, this jade pendant can help you solve some problems."
The Shen family started to eat in a carefree manner.
A group of boys were laughing happily.
"Mom, the meat porridge you and Second Aunt make is already as good as Sister A Li's. I think even the empresses in the palace can eat such good porridge!"
Zhang smiled and touched Shen Jinlin's head, "Little bastard, how come your little mouth has become so sweet now?"
Shen Jinlin rolled up his tongue and ate the rabbit meat porridge that Zhang had removed the bones from specially for him.
He is a little kid, but he has already learned how to achieve his goals.
Jiang Yu listened to Shen Jinlin's childish words, tasted the delicious food bit by bit, and had many expectations in his heart.
