Chapter 26: Going to the Market



The children ate very quickly. After they finished eating, Xia Manni took them to the grocery store to buy noodles.

When she arrived at the grocery store, Xia Manni discovered that there were two or three types of noodles sold there.

There are fine white flour, yellow flour, and mixed flour.

Of course, the prices varied greatly, and the only thing they could afford was mixed noodles. A bag of mixed noodles, weighing about 20 jin, cost one tael of silver.

Xia Manni paid the money readily and took them to a nearby butcher shop.

There are all kinds of meat in the butcher shop, but Xia Manni only dares to look at what she can afford.

In the end, she bought ten pounds of lard and two pounds of pork, spending a total of one or two taels of silver.

Pork is a bit expensive, so Xia Manni didn't dare buy too much. She just wanted to have more meat for the family.

She planned to go back and make some lard since there was not a drop of oil left at home. She could also make some lard residue for the children to eat.

She bought the most stain-resistant gray and black fabrics, both made of coarse fabric. Xia Manni was mainly thinking that they would be able to wear them when doing rough work in the fields.

After that, he bought a sickle from the blacksmith shop. Erwa actually took a fancy to a dagger, but unfortunately Xia Manni didn't have that much money, so he had to give up.

In the end, I bought a hen. Because I wanted to save money, I bought a smaller one that would need to be raised for a few more days before it could lay eggs.

Unexpectedly, when they were about to leave, Sanwa actually squatted beside a stall and said he would not leave no matter what.
