She also wanted to stretch out her arms like Gu Yanliu and feel the morning breeze.
But she dared not; if she let go, she was sure she would fall.
Gu Yanbai smiled and said, "Hold on tight."
The bicycle sped up a few more times.
On the way, we met many village women, and they all greeted us when they saw this scene.
"Yanliu, Yanbai's wife, are you going to the market?"
I must say, this scene actually looks quite beautiful!
I never expected that Gu Yanbai, that rascal, would be so nice when he's not causing trouble.
Gu Yanbai was greatly surprised. It had only been a few days, and the aunties in the village were already so friendly to her?
"Aunt Cuihua, Aunt Xinghua, we're leaving now. Take your time." Su Nianxue called out their names accurately.
"Okay, go ahead, go ahead!" The two aunties waved to them with smiles.
The bicycle whizzed past them, going further and further away until it disappeared from their sight.
As soon as they arrived in town, Gu Yanliu jumped out of the back seat. "Sister-in-law, let's go for a walk up ahead!"
“Okay.” She turned around and said to Gu Yanbai, “Go have fun by yourself, don’t worry about us.”
She remembered that men didn't seem to like shopping much; that was the case when her grandfather was alive.
Su Jianguo was the same; he was most impatient with going shopping with women. Whenever he went to the market with Wang Lanhua, he always looked unhappy.
If Wang Lanhua wanders around for even a little longer, he'll pull a long face.
"You've arranged everything so clearly, what can I say?" Gu Yanbai pushed his bicycle and left, leaving them with only the back of his head.
Honestly, why can't this person speak properly?
Gu Yanliu was already used to her brother's sarcastic and unpredictable manner, so she wasn't surprised at all.
She took Su Nianxue's hand and said, "Sister-in-law, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative!"
“Okay.” Su Nianxue thought so too. Every time the villagers came to town, the first thing they did was visit the supply and marketing cooperative.
She was no exception.
It's still quite a distance from here to the supply and marketing cooperative.
There are some small shops along the roadside, selling snacks, alcohol, grains and oils, as well as tailor shops and bicycle repair shops.
Each shop has a large signboard hanging in front of it, with the shop's name written in red paint, making it very eye-catching.
In the open spaces between the shops, there are small stalls set up by villagers.
Some vendors sell fruit grown on their own land, such as peaches and bayberries.
There are also some who sell homemade cloth shoes, dried vegetables, and homemade pastries and snacks.
The market is much more lively than in previous years.
However, they didn't need any of these things. After glancing at them a few times, they went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative.
The supply and marketing cooperative is located at the end of the road; it is a very impressive brick and tile building.
Today is market day, and the wooden frame and glass doors of the supply and marketing cooperative are wide open, bustling with people coming and going.
"Sister-in-law, let's go in too." Gu Yanliu ran ahead in a flash.
The glass counter of the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded with people buying things.
Their eyes were fixed on the rows of shelves against the wall, pointing to what they needed and asking the staff to get it for them.
The sales staff behind the counter were extremely busy.
Gu Yanliu spotted an empty spot and squeezed in, making Su Nianxue want to laugh.
"Sister-in-law, what do we need to buy?" she asked, turning around.
Su Nianxue thought for a moment, "Give me a pack of matches, a pound of salt, a bottle of vinegar, and a pound of toilet paper."
Gu Yanliu quickly added, "There's also wine."
"Yes, yes, and wine too. Look at my brain." Indeed, Gu Yanliu had picked so many bayberries, which were already dried.
How do you make bayberry wine if you don't have any alcohol?
Soon it was their turn, and Gu Yanliu told the waiter what she needed.
The waiter quickly picked up the scale on the counter, weighed the items they wanted, and placed them on the counter.
The money has already been paid, but Gu Yanliu still shows no sign of leaving.
"Sister-in-law, let's look around some more!" she said, pointing to the clothes on the wall.
Do you want to buy clothes?
"I won't buy it, but I still want to look around." She gazed at the clothes hanging on the wall, looking at them one by one.
"Okay, let's take a look!" It's a rare opportunity to come to town, so there's no harm in exploring a bit more.
Gu Yanliu was very interested in the clothes hanging on the wall, staring at them intently, and occasionally turning around to discuss them with Su Nianxue.
Su Nianxue wasn't very interested; she just glanced at it a few times and didn't look at it closely.
However, Su Nianxue spotted two familiar faces in the crowd: Wang Lanhua and Su Jiaojiao.
The two were standing in front of the fabric counter, enthusiastically selecting fabrics!
She didn't intend to disturb them, and simply pretended not to see them.
But Su Jiaojiao had sharp eyes and quickly spotted her.
"Su Nianxue, you've come to the market too?" When they were outside, Su Jiaojiao always called her by her full name.
Only in front of Su Jianguo would she pretend to call him Sister Nianxue.
Since they've greeted her, she can't ignore them.
But she and the mother and daughter had never gotten along, so she just grunted through her nose as a response.
"Su Nianxue, what did you buy?" Su Jiaojiao asked, looking at the things she was carrying.
"I just bought some daily necessities," Su Nianxue said calmly.
Su Jiaojiao glanced at the things in her hands and then looked away. "Oh right, I'm buying fabric to make clothes!"
Why don't you tear off a few feet of cloth too?
I'll take it all to Zhiguo and ask him to waive your labor fee!
