Chapter 28: Other People’s Wife
"My Xiaoxue is very filial and can't bear to see me suffer, but everyone grew up in hardship."
"I can't help it. This child is so pitiful."
Mei Xue pretended not to hear. Grandma is so... so cute.
After finishing her work at the stall, Mei Xue took out a snakeskin bag and packed the written quantities into the bag one by one.
When Grandma He saw Meixue packing bags, she immediately asked, "What are you doing?"
"Grandma, the boss who sells chickens to me wants some of our vegetables, so I'll deliver them to him." Mei Xue said while holding her hands.
"People won't want so much. You're packing too much." Grandma He said with a worried look on her face.
"It's not just him, there are several other shop owners who bought vegetables from us last time. They all want some, so they asked me to come back and get them. They are all guarding the stalls and have no time to come out to buy vegetables."
After a while, half of the vegetables in Mei Xue's house were packed away. "That should be enough, grandma. I'll deliver the vegetables they want first. Don't get tired. I'll come back and sell them later."
After saying that, Mei Xue carried the bag behind her, stood up and left.
Grandma He smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. "Go, go."
"Auntie, your daughter is very strong." said a lady standing next to Grandma He's stall.
"That's right. My Xiaoxue is very strong and capable." Grandma He opened her mouth and praised Xiaoxue.
"Have you told me about that person?" The old lady's eyes sparkled.
Hearing this, Grandma He became unhappy, "How can you talk like that? She's my granddaughter-in-law." It was obvious at a glance that this man was targeting Xiaoxue. Humph, no way.
"You are such a careless person. What are you saying?" The old lady was unhappy!
Seeing the old lady who had been so gentle just now suddenly got mad after hearing what she said, the old lady was a little scared, “I don’t know, I just asked casually.”
Knowing that she was in the wrong, the old lady pretended to ignore the old lady.
Grandma He was even more upset. Humph, this man still dared to think about her Xiaoxue. He didn't want to live anymore, right?
If there weren't so many people here, she would have a good chat with her.
Mei Xue had no idea that her grandmother was angry. She walked quickly and the food was served quickly.
As soon as she arrived, those who had ordered food immediately ran over and hurriedly chose the dishes, fearing that they would be out of stock.
"It's okay, everyone. I got a lot. We have them all, we have them all." Mei Xue had a headache.
After these people put all the vegetables they wanted into the basket, there were still a lot left on the ground.
When Boss Cheng saw this, he was delighted and said, "Give all of these to me, give them to me."
"Hey, Boss Cheng, I'll give you whatever you want. You've already taken a lot, so you don't have to worry about them going bad. I was busy just now and didn't have time to come out. Give these to me."
The pork shop owner who was the first to buy Meixue corn last time hurried out, pulled the bag to her side and said.
Mei Xue felt that these aunts and grandmas were really scary and even more vicious than the women in the village.
"You didn't place the order yourself, so it's none of our business." Boss Cheng said a little embarrassedly.
If he wasn't afraid that the vegetables would go bad, he would really buy more.
"Hmph, go away, give these to me." Seeing that there were only some dishes left, the proprietress took over.
"Okay, these are all for you, the boss lady." Mei Xue hammered down.
After everyone weighed their money, they stepped forward and gave it to Mei Xue.
After receiving the money, Mei Xue bought some pork and bones. The old lady's teeth were a little loose, so Mei Xue wanted to make more soup for her and let her eat more thinly-digested food, which would be good for her teeth.
The pork shop owner was laughing so happily.
No one envied her, and everyone started to tease her, asking her to give the girl a lower price.
The price of pork is fixed, it is definitely impossible to be cheap, but the proprietress is also generous, "Take these things, these ribs are the most nutritious for making soup, even if there is not much meat, don't be disgusted."
Mei Xue certainly wouldn't mind, "Thank you, Madam Boss."
Mei Xue, having returned with a full load, quickly returned to the stall as today's vegetables had not yet been sold out.
You have to buy vegetables early. If you are late, the vegetables will wilt and will be harder to sell.
"Why are you buying so many things, kid? Don't we have beef at home?" Although Grandma He said this, anyone with a common sense could tell that she was showing off.
"Grandma, you've been doing a lot of heavy work recently, so you need to replenish your energy." Mei Xue smiled and put the things into the empty basket.
She really wanted to take good care of her grandmother's body, and with her space water, it would be even better.
If you weren't afraid of outsiders noticing anything, you could just drink the space water. No other tonic is better than her space water.
It's a pity, but I still have to save face. When grandma gets better, it will be the fault of these food, and Space Water will not be blamed.
"You just know how to spend money recklessly." He muttered, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.
I don’t know if it was Xuemei who brought fortune, but as soon as she came back, people came to buy vegetables non-stop. In less than two hours, half of the vegetables in front of her were sold out by her.
What little was left at the end, Mei Xue sold it all out at half price and half price.
"Grandma, let's go out. Put the basket on Ancheng's carriage and I'll take you shopping." Mei Xue packed up her things very quickly.
It must be said that her behavior made those who knew that she was Grandma He's granddaughter-in-law feel even more sad.
Why can't I meet such a good girl at home?
"Okay, let's go." There was nothing missing at home, but Xiaoxue liked it, so I just accompanied her to go shopping.
The old lady now only has Xiaoxue in her heart, and her heart is as sweet as honey.
When passing by Aunt Meilian's stall, Meixue told her that she was going to the carriage first. There were still a lot of dishes left at Aunt Meilian's stall, but there was no rush, as it was only a little after eight o'clock and it was still early.
It’s still possible to sell it for another two or three hours.
After putting the baskets and other things away, Mei Xue took her grandmother to the supply and marketing cooperative, which is now the largest place for selling things.
There is everything in there, except what you can't imagine.
Mei Xue was still thinking about the missing face towel at home. The one she was using was He Anze's. It didn't matter if she didn't know about it before, but now that she knew, she had no intention of using it again.
Besides, they are so old that they can’t be any older and are hard to use anymore. They are almost like rags.
When she entered, Grandma He felt just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, everything was new and exciting.
Look at this, touch that.
Mei Xue was more purposeful. She would buy whatever she wanted when she saw it. The old lady kept asking if it was enough and whether she wanted to buy some more.
Mei Xue shook her head, "Enough, enough." She bought a face wash and two new basins to wash her face. There were three people in the family, and Mei Xue didn't want the man to use hers when he came back.
So I bought one for him as well.
When Grandma He saw that Mei Xue was thinking about An Ze, her face was full of smiles.
"You two can use these things together, why buy so many?" But, since you are an old hand, please loosen up a little and don't hold it so tightly.
