Splendid little maid

Chapter 62 The New Way

The ghost market has its own rules, where there are only sellers and buyers, no matter what grievances or entanglements, no matter who you are, you only do business.

The kind that sells everything, even government-controlled items.

Zhang Hansan said: "Nowadays, the top is very strict about salt. Except for merchants, ordinary people can only buy salt with salt tickets every month. This thing is small in quantity and expensive. It is impossible not to eat salt. There is so much meat in the house that needs to be marinated. Where is the salt? I always have to go there two or three times a year."

He was also worried when he talked about this matter. Although the ghost market was safe inside, it was hard to say after going out. After all, it was not bound by the rules of the ghost market outside, and it was also chaotic.

But there is no one to check the household registration, it is better than the city where the identity is checked every now and then, if Chen Xi is really short of something, he can try his luck.

Zhang Hansan also confessed: "If you really want to go, I can take you with me. I know where it is open and I have experience. It shouldn't be a big problem if you try to keep quiet."

Really warm-hearted.

Chen Xi hurriedly said gratefully: "That's really troublesome Uncle Zhang."

Zhang Hansan waved his hand and said, "It's difficult for everyone in this world, and I'm just helping you along the way, but you'd better think clearly, although the ghost city is safer than the inner city, it is also risky, and I may not be able to keep it if something happens. you."

If she was alone, he actually wanted to say that it’s okay if she doesn’t go out, and he can go to the city to buy it for her if she really needs anything, but now that there are so many brothers and sisters in the family, he has to buy his own things alone, there is really no way I bought so many things for her, so I didn't say anything.

Chen Xi said affirmatively: "Uncle Zhang, don't worry, I'm sure I've thought it through."

She thought it was better to have a way than nothing, trapped in the east courtyard with no source of income, she had to find a way to make money, otherwise she really didn't feel safe with this little wealth, and she needed many other necessities for life.

Chen Xi is willing to make a breakthrough.

Zhang Hansan admired the courage of this child, and couldn't help boasting: "You don't look like a girl, but you are more courageous than ordinary boys!"

"Okay, wait for my uncle to let you know in advance before we leave, and then I will take you there! We don't want to cause trouble, and we will take you to take a detour and leave quickly after shopping!"

Chen Xi was happy about this way, and said with a smile: "Hey, if you want me, just throw a token near the pit where I picked me up, and I will come to you when I see it."

Zhang Hansan drank the wine and said with a smile: "It's done! Come on, don't just talk, eat meat! Uncle, there is nothing else, but there is meat. Bring some back tomorrow morning."

Chen Xi hurriedly stopped him from the stewed meat, and said with a smile: "No, no, you saved me. I owe you a favor. How can I make you spend money?"

Zhang Hansan is a pure man, straight-talking and quick-spoken. Hearing this, he said: "Eat it as soon as I let you eat it. Don't you look down on uncle? This meat uncle can still afford it!"

He simply felt that it was not easy for Chen Xi, a half-grown little girl, to drag his sisters. Seeing that she was as pitiful as his own daughter, he was willing to take care of her.

Chen Xi understands that people with this kind of character don't like you to push back and forth, so it's better to accept his friendship, she hesitated for a while, then smiled and agreed: "Okay."

Only then did Zhang Hansan smile brightly, and continued to pick up food for her, and for his own daughter, looking at his own daughter, but what he said was meant for Chen Xi.

"Girl, I have to come here often. My girl just doesn't talk much and is a bit shy. She usually hides from people like a mouse when she sees a cat. Today, she is willing to sit and eat with you. She must have a good relationship with you. You often come to meet with me." Is she playing well?"

The 1.8-meter-long man was able to discuss with Chen Xi in such a soft-spoken manner when he was facing a daughter-in-law. It was hard for people to reject him, after all, there was a previous favor.

Zhang Hansan's voice was soft and small, and there was a gentle smile in his eyes. Song Tao didn't listen carefully, but seeing her father's smiling face, she knew it was all right.

She didn't read her lips in time, so she didn't know what her father was saying to Chen Xi.

Seeing nothing, he continued to bow his head to eat.

Chen Xi thought seriously before giving an answer: "We will rest here for the time being, but I also have to support my family. I have no free time, but I will come here often when I have free time."

Zhang Hansan knew that the child was not glib and coaxing. Looking at her expression, he knew that she was giving him a serious answer, so he said happily: "That's what it should be. I'll be satisfied if you can come here often when you have time."

Chen Xi was relieved to see that although he loved his daughter dearly, he did not force others to play with his daughter, and felt that the other party was really reliable, at least sensible.

"Uncle Zhang, I feel strange about one more thing. You said that you often go out, so is it okay for Sister Taoer to be alone in this wooden house? Are you not afraid of outsiders breaking in?"

Chen Xi asked Zhang Hansan when he saw Song Tao leaving the dinner table quietly.

Seeing his daughter leave, Zhang Hansan sighed and said, "Why don't I feel relieved to let her guard the house alone? I also do hard work. Although I regret my life and no longer squat outside to hunt prey for a long time, it is not safe to hunt small prey nearby."

After all, wandering in the mountains and forests all year round, how could there be no risk at all?
For this reason, Zhang Hansan said helplessly: "Fortunately, my hands are quite skillful. I learned woodwork in the past, and most of the hunting tools at home are made by me, so I can only give her some weapons, which can protect me. Usually, when I am not around, she They will all go upstairs."

This wooden house is still a small house on the second floor, and everyone knows that the view from the heights is better.

Chen Xi naturally knew that Song Tao would be safer upstairs. After all, if she had long-range weapons such as bows and arrows, she could definitely prevent a wave in advance.

"Uncle Zhang, do you know how to make weapons? That's amazing, you're too modest."

Chen Xi half-sincerely and half-exaggeratedly surprised, but in fact his head was buzzing, and he would feel uncomfortable when he moved or had more emotional fluctuations in the injured area.

But she endured silently.

The wound must have been treated briefly, so a layer of herbal ointment was applied and tied with cloth strips. She noticed it when she woke up, and the smell of herbs oozes out from time to time.

Zhang Hansan didn't notice her pain, he became interested when he saw Chen Xi's adoring appearance, and greeted with a smile: "You are really brave girl, you are not afraid of weapons but excited, this is the first time I have met you."

So all kinds.

Zhang Hansan vigorously invited Chen Xi to visit the "weapon" tools he made.

Chen Xi didn't eat the rice right away, she really had a headache and couldn't eat any more, otherwise she wouldn't let go of the meat, she would definitely eat them to her heart's content.

Now it's more important to look at the weapon, mainly she also wants to see if she can get a self-defense.

Zhang Hansan took Chen Xi with him and left this room, and went to another room through the small hall. He still had to unlock it, and when he opened it, it really shocked people's jaws.
