Chapter 562 Strange Acquaintances

"I'm really sorry. I hurt my head once, and I can't remember many things clearly. If you are the friend of the deceased husband, please forgive me."

As Bai Yunxi said, Wei Wei blessed her body.There is indeed no such number in memory, but if people can recognize it at a glance, they must have seen it before, and they also look very friendly.

Hearing Bai Yunxi's explanation, the man looked at her suspiciously, nodded,

"So that's how it is. It's good for brothers and sisters to come in. Brother has been thinking about you all the time, but he has never had time to visit. Please bear with us."

Hearing this person's polite tone, Bai Yunxi only thought it was funny, she even said that she didn't know him, and this person didn't introduce himself, and even exchanged greetings with her.

"You're being polite, I don't know who you are?"

"...My surname is Meng, and I used to be classmates with Brother Bai. After I was selected as a scholar, I gave up the road of scientific research and opened this bookstore to make a living."

The man said, staring at Baiyunxi, seeing her calm face, he already believed her words in his heart.

He had heard a word or two about their forced debts, but he didn't expect it to be so serious that he didn't even recognize the people.

Bai Yunxi didn't care about this person's visit at all, "It turned out that he was a classmate of the deceased husband, and he met Brother Meng."

With that said, let Mrs. Du and Mrs. Li come over to greet him.

The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, Meng Xiucai stroked his beard and squinted at the three mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in front of him,
"Sisters and sisters have been looking at pens, inks, papers and inkstones just now. I don't know whether to use them for my nephew or give them away. Although the four treasures of the study here are not expensive, they are still practical."

Hearing Meng Xiucai's tone, Bai Yunxi was a little embarrassed. Since she was an acquaintance, it was not easy to buy things, as if she wanted to take advantage.

"Actually, there is no shortage. I am free today. I just came to the town to look around. There is nothing that must be purchased."

She didn't have any impression of this man, and based on her intuition, this man didn't have much enthusiasm for her, and he and Lao Juren should just be nodding acquaintances.

"So, don't bother me, and leave."

"Brothers and sisters, go slowly. If you have any difficulties in the future, just come and find a brother. If you can do what you can, your brother will never shirk."

It wasn't until the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked to the street that Bai Yunxi sighed. It was really unlucky to meet an acquaintance for no reason and delay her shopping.

"Mom, what shall we do next? Do we really have to go to the county?"

Mrs. Du looked back at the bookstore,

"That Uncle Meng looks familiar to me. He should have been to our house before."

"Acquaintances with a general relationship, the type of people who go to drink tea."

Bai Yunxi smiled, she didn't want to be popular at all, and it doesn't matter if she recognizes her or not.

While talking, the three of them walked to Chefang. If they wanted to go to the county seat, they had to come here to take a cart, ox cart, mule cart, and horse cart. There were all kinds of carts.

Of course, those who have the ability can also rent a car.

"Go and ask, how much is the mule cart?"

After a while, Mrs. Li ran back excitedly, "Mother, the mule cart will arrive in one and a half hours for ten cents each time. The bullock cart will arrive in two and a half hours for eight cents."

Baiyunxi took a look at the sky, threw away the journey back and forth, and before he even wandered around the county town, it was getting dark.

Now is the time for the disaster victims to return home, and the road is not peaceful yet, so she can't take her daughter-in-law to take risks on the road.

"It's too late today, I'll take Wenyou to the county seat tomorrow morning."

Although Mrs. Li was a little regretful, she never refuted her mother-in-law's decision. The three of them bought some daily necessities with baskets on their backs.
