Chapter 13: Going to the Market



I saw a farmer selling his own chickens at a roadside stall, so I picked out a hen and spent thirty-five cents on it.

I remembered that I hadn’t bought cinnamon, star anise and other spices yet, so I went to buy some more.

I still had soy sauce and vinegar at home, so I didn't buy more.

I found a deserted place and put the pork belly, chicken and seasonings into the space.

Leave the pork fat, pig offal, etc. in the backpack.

Xia Tian calculated that it cost him almost four hundred coins to buy these things.

Fortunately, Shen Nian gave her money when she went out, otherwise it would not be enough.

I had almost finished buying things. Since it was still early in the summer, I slowed down and took my time to appreciate this bustling ancient market.

The shouts on both sides of the road are endless, and you can walk and see as you go in the summer.

There are vendors selling steamed buns, noodles, mutton soup, pot stickers and other food, as well as cloth, headwear, purses and other things. It is very lively.

Most of the farmers setting up stalls on both sides of the road sell their own vegetables, eggs, woven baskets, backpacks and other agricultural products, and there are many people patronizing them.

I guess most of the people who come here to buy are people who live in the town.

I didn’t seem to see anyone selling braised dishes along the way. I could try making some myself and earn some living expenses.

Otherwise, it is not a solution for two people to sit at home and eat up all the food.

Everyone in the village has land, so they basically don't need to buy food. She and Shen Nian have nothing, so it costs a lot of money to buy food.

In the summer, I walked all the way to the gathering place. On the way, I saw a place selling buns, so I bought five meat buns and secretly put them in my space.

When they arrived at the place, Mrs. Yao and the others had not arrived yet. Xia Tian said hello to Uncle Liu and sat in the car, eating the corn cakes he brought while waiting for them.

After a while, most people had arrived and the cart was basically full, so Uncle Liu drove the ox cart back.

In the car, everyone was chatting and looking at what everyone had bought.
