I have to say that these nuts carefully selected by the squirrels are really delicious, and there are no rotten fruits.
It's a pity that it's just a little less.
The plate of nuts was quickly finished, and the little girl smacked her lips, still looking unsatisfied.
Chen Wang smiled and rubbed her little head, saying, "Next time I go hunting in the mountains, find a few more squirrel nests to dig. The colder the weather, the easier it should be to find these nuts."
"Um!"
The little guy nodded vigorously.
Looking at the well-behaved and obedient little girl in front of him, Chen Wang couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
Compared with children of the same age in later generations, my sister is so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.
"I'm going to town with Da Zhuang today. You and your sister-in-law should think about it and write down what you want to buy."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
"Really? Can I have everything I want?"
The little girl tilted her head back and looked at him with shining eyes.
"It will be all right!"
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
He wasn't worried at all that what the little guy wanted was too expensive.
First, the little ones have never been exposed to the things of these days.
And she is really sensible.
"Brother, you are so kind."
The little girl cheered and ran towards Lin Xiuqin who was sweeping the floor with her short legs.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, my brother is going to town today..."
After getting the notes written by the two people, Chen Wang took the sack again, put several bamboo rat skins and black goat furs into it, and went all the way to Chen Dazhuang's house.
When I walked into the yard, I saw the master sitting on a stool processing a pile of Acorus calamus.
"Master, good morning!"
Chen Wang greeted him with a smile.
Chen Jianjun looked up at him and replied with a smile: "You're here so early. I'm cleaning the mud off the roots. I haven't even started drying them yet!"
"It's okay. I'll do it with you. Don't dry them in the sun. Just sell them with the roots and leaves."
"That's fine. If I dry it myself, I'm afraid it will get damaged."
"Where's Dazhuang?"
Chen Wang walked up to him, squatted down, picked up a calamus, and used his hands to dig out the mud at the roots.
"I'm eating in the house. Have you eaten yet? If not, let's go eat something together."
"I ate it. My wife steamed some mutton and radish stuffed buns and cooked some millet porridge. It was delicious!"
"That sounds good. It's different to have a woman in this house."
Chen Jianjun sighed with a smile.
Chen Wang had no way of responding to this. He could only smile awkwardly and change the subject.
"Master, is there a place in town that sells dogs?"
"Sometimes you're lucky enough to come across a puppy seller, but not all dogs are suitable for hunting. If you don't know the ropes, you can easily waste money and end up buying a useless dog."
"That makes sense. Then Master, come with us to take a look!"
"Okay, since I have nothing to do today, I'll go with you guys!"
"Very good."
"Awang, you're here!"
A familiar voice came.
Chen Wang looked up and saw Chen Dazhuang coming out with a bowl in his hand.
"Well, here I am. What do you want to eat that smells so good?"
"I heated up the rice I didn't finish yesterday. Do you want some?"
"No, I came here after I had eaten."
Chen Wang smiled and shook his head.
Paofan is a very common breakfast in this era. It is made by heating up overnight cold rice with some water and pairing it with leftovers, pickled mustard and other vegetables.
Of course, many families do not have breakfast and only eat two meals a day.
After Chen Dazhuang had eaten and drunk his fill, Chen Wang and his master cleaned the pair of Acorus calamus and put them into a sack.
After Chen Jianjun closed the door, the three of them set off for the town together.
Chenjia Village is more than ten miles away from the town, and the road is all difficult to walk on, and it takes at least an hour to walk there.
Chen Wang and Chen Dazhuang talked and laughed along the way, and they didn't feel bored when listening to Chen Jianjun talk about hunting dogs and hunting.
It was not until noon that the three finally arrived in the town.
Chen Wang was completely unfamiliar with what the town looked like in that era.
There is no such thing in Silly Awang’s memory either.
When his parents were still alive, they must have brought him here, but he has no memory of it at all.
Chen Wang looked around curiously, feeling that everything was so new and strange.
There are stalls selling various snacks and goods on both sides of the street, and in the back are a few shops and state-owned stores.
Looking around, many people are walking around.
“It’s quite lively!”
Chen Wang said with some surprise.
"It's already late now. It's more lively during the morning market!"
Chen Dazhuang smiled and said.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go to the purchasing station first, and then we have to see if there is anyone who wants to buy a dog!"
Chen Jianjun urged.
The two knew that they didn't have time to wander around, so they followed Chen Jianjun all the way to the purchasing station.
When I walked into the purchasing station, I saw many people inside discussing transactions with the store clerks.
After waiting in line for a while, it was soon their turn.
Chen Wang walked over with the sack and asked the female clerk standing behind the counter.
"Hello, beautiful lady. Do you buy animal fur and calamus here?"
In this era, both men and women are more conservative. If you call someone beautiful when you meet them, you may be regarded as a second-rate person.
However, the woman who works at the purchasing station in the town has finally seen the world.
Not only was he not angry, but he was overjoyed by the call of "beautiful girl" and he looked at Chen Wang with much more favor.
"Of course I will. Please take it out and let me see it."
The female clerk answered with a bright smile.
