The ancient daily life of a farmer's daughter-in-law

Chapter 114

Looking at the donkey cart and hearing the pharmacy approaching, Li Qingnuan reproachfully turned to her own man.She always felt that this man was too cautious. After so many days, she could eat or sleep by herself, and the child would kick her from time to time to play around.There is no need to spend more consultation fees!

The doctor sitting in the hall this time is the old man who treated Tian Tieshi's injuries last time. Seeing Tian Tieshi lovingly helping his pregnant wife come in, he hurriedly asked the female clerk in the store to help.After feeling the pulse, the old gentleman couldn't help showing a smile, and kept stroking his white goatee and saying congratulations.

Originally, the old man was still thinking, this girl was frightened when she was first pregnant, and later she became red a few times because of poor rest, this fetus is probably a lucky one, even if she is lucky enough to be born, it is probably not healthy.But when he checked the pulse today, he found that the two pulses were extremely round and powerful.Although it is not the sign of a male fetus, it is considered a blessing.

After receiving the doctor's words, Tian Tieshi's mind was put in his stomach.As for the doctor saying it was a girl, he was not disappointed at all, anyway, as long as it was born by his wife, he liked it.Good girl, daughter-in-law will be the first when she is born, and she will be the second.

Because there were so many people in the market outside, it was not easy to drive a horse-drawn cart, so Tian Tieshi negotiated with the shopkeeper of the pharmacy to store the donkey cart in his backyard first.This is also a common thing, two pennies to deposit an object, just like the depository at the station in later generations.

Carefully escorting my daughter-in-law to the Sun's grocery store not far away, the two first bought various seasonings, and then chose some sweets and snacks to put in the basket.Then I went to a small shop specializing in official salt and bought four catties of fine salt.

After leaving the shop with the official banner, the two looked up and saw a group of people gathered in front of a stall.Tian Tieshi inquired a little bit, and it turned out that it was a beef shop opened once a year.In this era, cattle are used for farming, and few people are willing to slaughter healthy cattle casually.Moreover, the government sometimes controls them. Slaughtering cattle without permission will be criticized or even pursued by the government.

Although he knew that beef was very expensive, even three times as expensive as ordinary pork, Tian Tieshi thought that he should buy something for his wife as a rarity.Anyway, the money can be earned back, and the daughter-in-law's happiness is the most important thing.

"Daughter-in-law, wait here. I'll go buy a catty, go back and get some wine to stew on it. It's delicious." Tian Tieshi's eyes were shining, thinking about what the old doctor said, he secretly decided to buy it later A chicken and a duck, to make up for the wife.

Seeing Tian Tieshi glanced at his figure, and then eager to dive into the crowd with passion, Li Qingnuan quickly grabbed his sleeve.Even without knowing the price, Li Qingnuan can guess that this thing is not cheap.I didn't see the crowd in front of the stall, either it was a fancy-dressed daughter-in-law, or a housekeeper with a maid by her side.Presumably they are all wealthy families, not short of money.

"I don't care much about beef. Let's go to the meat market and buy a couple of chickens and ducks. It's Chinese New Year, so it shouldn't be too shabby."

Tian Tieshi turned his head and saw that his wife's expression was not dissatisfied, and felt that her words could not be refuted, so he helped her to walk to the Dongjie meat market.

There are not many people who buy chickens and ducks in the past year, and every family in the village raises these items these days, so the meat market is not expensive.Li Qingnuan felt a little nauseous and dizzy when he smelled the smell of blood and moisture from a distance, so he simply stopped in front of the paving at the street entrance.

After weighing the chicken and duck, Li Qingnuan turned around and pointed to a basket next to the slaughtering booth, and asked the stall owner who was helping to clean up the duck's internal organs how much to sell it for.The basket was full of duck intestines and duck hearts that no one wanted. These things were usually thrown away or chopped up and mixed with the leftovers to feed the dogs.In addition, just now Li Qingnuan asked for three ducks and two chickens, so the stall owner was also happy to be a favor, and he waved his hand and asked Li Qingnuan to carry the basket.

Tian Tieshi didn't know what his wife's plan was, he just thought that she bought some unattractive things to save money, and wanted to say a few words, but seeing the light in his daughter-in-law's eyes, his heart softened.Anyway, it doesn't cost a lot of money, and three copper coins can make the daughter-in-law happy.If you buy it back and don't eat it, you can also make the rhubarb of Tieniu Brothers open, right?
After this circle, the two bought a lot of things.When passing by a stall selling lotus root, Li Qingnuan also specially bought lotus root that came out after the sixth festival of autumn.

Seeing that the sun had not yet reached the top of his head, Tian Tieshi had to take Li Qingnuan to the tailor shop.If he was himself, he would definitely not enter this kind of place where money is hustle and bustle, but as long as he buys clothes and jewelry for his wife, he doesn't feel bad at all.

Li Qingnuan couldn't resist this guy, so he had to follow him into the shop.The weather was just right at this moment, many women brought their daughters to choose clothes, but few men brought their daughters-in-law to see the clothes.The guy is not a snobbish person either, their shop is originally a small rich farmer's business, who knows if this inconspicuously dressed person in front of him is a rich man who has earned money from work, so when he saw Tian Tieshi and the others entered the door , the little guy hurriedly took some floral cloths and approached the two of them.
