When Ding Xia heard about this good news, she said, "Sure, there are plenty in my backyard. I even found two when I was digging a drainage ditch a few days ago. I gave them to my kids to play with, but I don't know where they went."
"Really? If you dig more, I'll give you fifty cents per pound."
Ding Xia's expression flashed as she said, "You've been here for so many days, aren't you just here to collect mountain products to sell?"
Ying Sisi didn't dare discuss the business details, choosing her words carefully. "I'm not doing that now that I'm in the city. My husband is interested in studying medicine, and my father-in-law has a little less hair. He found out that Polygonum multiflorum can help grow black hair, and since it's easy to find in the mountains here, he decided to make a shampoo here. Here, it's made, and this is for you. We're leaving tomorrow."
"Not for a few more days?"
"No." Ying Sisi said, "Just send it over when you're done."
Ding Xia bit her lip and said, "Sending a package also costs money."
Ying Sisi asked the old lady how much it cost to send the package last time.
"Anything under ten kilograms, regardless of size, is one dollar and fifty cents. I'll give it to Xia Xia." The old lady heard Ding Xia's words clearly from inside the house. She took out some scattered banknotes from her handkerchief and handed them to Ding Xia. She said meaningfully, "Here's the money. Don't forget what you promised."
"Yeah." Ding Xia patted her chest and assured.
After receiving the money, she smiled: "Grandma Zhu, Sisi is gone, and you are alone again. Earlier, an old man from the next village wanted to date you, why did you refuse? It would be great if you could go to his house and have both sons and daughters."
"They are not my children, so what's the good of them?"
"I'll have someone to rely on when I'm old."
"I live next to Sisi. When I die, I'll give this house to her, even though she might not want it." The old lady smiled. Her house had a great view and she had paid ten dollars for it when she bought it from the previous owner.
Ding Xia said disdainfully: "Si Si lives in the city and has a family to support. How could she care about you?"
The old lady smiled but said nothing. Why couldn't she take care of it?
Si Si was about to take her away.
Ding Xia didn't stay long after getting the money and found an excuse to leave.
When a person leaves.
Ying Sisi returned the money the old lady had advanced to her.
The old lady took it without hesitation and put it in her pocket. Then she packed her luggage, locked the doors and windows after dark, and walked towards the city with Ying Sisi and her husband.
After walking for a while, she was exhausted and panting: "I am old, and I get tired after walking a little."
Ying Sisi said, "I said at the banquet that we would leave by ox cart tomorrow, but you insisted on disagreeing."
"That would alarm a lot of people, and they would talk about you. I left without saying a word, and even if the villagers found out I wasn't at home, they would think I ran off with some old man instead of thinking about you. Although we neighbors don't usually visit each other, we do have some contact. If your uncle finds out, he will definitely spread bad things about you everywhere." The old lady put herself in Ying Sisi's shoes.
"I don't care." Ying Sisi didn't care.
"After all, he is your mother's brother. When talking about you, one cannot help but mention your mother. Although the innocent are innocent, bad words will become true if they are spread too much and no one explains them." The old lady said, "When you have the ability in the future, move your mother's grave. She definitely doesn't want to stay in this place." Instead, she wanted to be with Shen Yutian.
After all, before she died, she was looking forward to seeing him.
She didn't say the rest.
Ying Sisi had already planned this: "Yeah."
The three arrived at the county town in the early morning, found a guesthouse to rest until dawn, and then went to the train station to check their tickets and board the train.
