Chapter 34

the next day.Before dawn, Ning Qingxi was pulled out of the warm bed by her grandmother.

She was sleepy and stared at her disheveled hair like a little lunatic, and hurriedly put the quilt back again, and a muttering voice came from under the quilt, "Grandma, let me sleep a little longer."

Wang Xiujuan stopped her movements, "Then you have to think about it. We are going to the county, you decide whether you go or not." It is so cold today, if Ning Qingxi didn't want to go, Wang Xiujuan would also want to go. Let her forget it.Anyway, I can go in spring when the weather is warm.

Hearing this, Ning Qingxi rolled around holding the quilt, exposed her head from under the quilt, and barely opened her eyes, "Are you going so early? It's not even dawn yet."

"It takes three hours to walk to the county from here. Even if we take a bullock cart, it will take us more than an hour. Why don't we go earlier?"

"This ox cart is not our own, and the time has to be determined by others." Many people are going to the county today, and the son of the village head is also going. In the county, you can save a penny or two.

Ning Qingxi resigned to his fate after waiting for a few minutes.Now she can skillfully wear this ancient clothes by herself.After getting up and tidying up, she took a bath with the hot water that Fang Chunmei cooked next to her.It was still dark after dinner.

"Today, Changrong Xixi and I will go to the county, and you will go tomorrow. There must be no one at home." Wang Xiujuan and Ning Qingxi made a lot of chilblain ointment, and occasionally two or three people from the village would come to buy them.

Fang Chunmei gave up after going to her mother's house once, and sold it in the village every day.Li Dafeng sold well.

Youngest Ning smiled and said, "Okay, mother, you, elder brother, and Xixi can go at ease. With my second brother and I watching at home, there will be no problems."

When Ning Qingxi and her father and mother arrived, most of the people had gathered at the entrance of the village, and they were all families who wanted to go shopping in the county together.

The village head's daughter-in-law greeted everyone after seeing the last person coming, "Everyone, get in the car quickly. Everyone is here, let's set off now!"

After Ning Changrong got into the bullock cart, he pulled Ning Qingxi and his mother up, and found a better place for the two of them, sheltered from the wind, and less bumpy.A lot of straw was placed under the buttocks of the grandfather and grandson, and some under his own seat. The three of them sat in a row, and Ning Changrong sat on the outermost side to protect them from the wind.

He has been to the county so many times, and he often rides in ox carts, so he knows exactly what is going on on the road.

The people in the car praised it after seeing it.

"Evergreen is really filial."

"Evergreen really loves my daughter."

Ning Changrong smiled at everyone as a response.

Wang Xiujuan took out a piece of cloth and surrounded her and Ning Qingxi's upper body, and they leaned head to head.

Ning Changrong also brought an extra piece of clothing to cover his head so that the wind would not give him a headache.

The appearance of the family is not obtrusive in the car, and the others are similar, trying to wrap their heads around their necks and shrink their bodies.

Sitting on the bullock cart, Ning Qingxi felt the wooden wheel swaying on the dirt road, and panicked, "Grandma, it's pitch black, can the cow see the road clearly?"

Before Wang Xiujuan could speak, the village chief's daughter-in-law laughed loudly when she heard it, "My cow has traveled a lot on this road, so don't worry, Xixi. If you can't fall, it's my aunt's fault."

Ning Qingxi smiled embarrassedly at the village chief's daughter-in-law.

Wang Xiujuan also smiled kindly at the village chief's daughter-in-law, rubbing against her car.There should be no less courtesy.

The village chief's family wanted to go out by themselves, so the big guy's money was confiscated.If you borrow an ox cart from his house on purpose, you have to collect some hard-earned money for the ox depending on the time.

What Ning Qingxi said earlier was ridiculed, and then she lowered her volume when she spoke to Wang Xiujuan. The grandparent and grandson whispered under the dark cloth, not knowing what they were talking about.

The people in the bullock cart were amazed when they saw it. It was the first time for the village to get along so well with their granddaughter.

He thought that if it was him, he would be revived by his granddaughter before he died of illness, and he might be able to love his granddaughter like Mrs. Wang.Ning Qingxi woke up too early, whispered to grandma for a while and then fell asleep, leaning on her shoulder half asleep and half awake.

Ning Changrong sat outside the two of them and closed his eyes to rest his mind. He was not sleepy after getting used to it.

The people in the car saw that the whole family was asleep and subconsciously lowered the volume.

"Evergreen is really calm. This business has been robbed and I am still in the mood to go shopping in the county."

"I was so anxious to get angry that someone stole my handicraft, and I couldn't sleep."

"Your son received another job today?"

"That's right. But it's only sixty renminbi for a heated kang, and even a few people can't share much money."

"It's all the fault of those who killed thousands of dollars, otherwise we would still make a good profit. I am thinking about how much more meat I can cut this year to make dumplings."

"These wicked things will be punished sooner or later!"

The people in the car finally became quiet after half an hour of scolding and getting tired. The only sound on the road was the creaking sound of the wooden wheels touching the ground.

The eldest son of the village head was driving the car. When he saw the three characters of Taixi County from afar, he yelled, "We're at the gate of the county."

The group of people in the car immediately cheered up.

Wang Xiujuan moved her butt, numb after sitting for so long, "Oh my god, it's over, it's really not easy this time." Her son Ning Changrong was still on his legs most of the time before, so how much did he suffer? crime?
Ning Qingxi yawned, touched her tears, "Father, is this Taixi County?"

It feels like the city wall is too short!It looks like two or three floors.

The bullock carts gradually approached the gate of the city, and the soldiers at the gate could be seen yelling at the people passing by.

One person in the car paid a penny for tolls, and gave them to the village chief's son to give to the soldiers at the gate of the city. Some people didn't even know that tolls were being collected in the city.

At this time, he patted his legs with a sigh, and said in his mouth that he knew that he could buy it by asking someone.

The village head's family gave an extra two Wen because of the ox cart.

The eldest son of the village jumped out of the bullock cart after collecting the money, and bent over to hand over the copper coins. "My lord, this is the entry fee for our Xiayuan Village. There is an extra two Wen for the ox cart."

The soldier at the gate of the city weighed the copper coins, counted the heads, looked at the people in the car, raised his hand and said: "Go in, come in. Hurry up and don't delay the people behind to enter the city."

"Okay, okay. Drive." The eldest son of the village quickly sat back on the handle of the cart, and quickly passed the gate of the city with the ox cart, looking for a place to put the ox cart away, and then everyone got out of the cart.

The daughter-in-law of the village head told everyone: "Everyone go shopping. We will gather here to return to the village in the afternoon. If anyone forgets the time, the car will not wait for anyone."

Ning Changrong's family thanked the family in the village who wanted to go shopping with them, and walked on the street alone.

Ning Qingxi thought about the scene at the gate of the city, "It's so expensive. Come here and one person will be gone without doing anything." She made a bottle of chilblain ointment with her grandma at home and only earned a penny. .
