In the early morning of the next day, after four o'clock, as the day lighted up, Mr. Wang couldn't wait to take his son and Zhang Guoqing and his son to the back mountain.
According to Lin Quan, this mountain is not dangerous. His uncle and his master used to sleep on the mountain at night. Even a few boys from his family often go hunting in the mountains.
Hearing what he said, Zhou Jiao was relieved.
Lin Quan went to work in the team, and Aunt Lin also went to work in the village. How can she be alone in the Lin family? The wild ginseng purchased by the two families was hidden in which secret room by Lin Quan early in the morning.
When Zhou Jiao saw this, she carried her on her back and set off after Aunt Lin. It just so happened that she was also planning to walk around to see where she could buy specialty products.
The town is not far from Lin's home, and the two walked together for half an hour. To Zhou Jiao's disappointment, the whole township is just one main street, surrounded by soil embryo houses and thatched houses. A huge township actually only has a small post office, a supply and marketing agency, and not even a restaurant.
Aunt Lin pointed to the turning corner in front of him, "I'm going to work in the street sewing company in front of me. Remember to come and see me at noon. Let's go to the rural cafeteria for dinner."
Zhou Jiao shook her head, "Auntie, don't wait for me, I'll go around and eat wherever I go."
Aunt Lin laughed happily, "Stupid girl. You can't buy anything to eat these days. Supply and marketing cooperatives require food stamps for pastries. If you listen to Auntie, come here later."
Zhou Jiao looked around silently, and asked in a low voice, "Why don't many people show up here?"
Aunt Lin suddenly realized, "Look at my brain. We are very close to the county seat in front of us. We usually go to the county seat for shopping and everything. Do you want to go to the county seat? There will be horse-drawn carriages and bullock carts going to the county seat soon. Passing here, you can take a ride."
Zhou Jiao nodded quickly.
"I'll accompany you for a while, and there will be cars passing by soon. When you get to the county seat, there is a parking place outside the city gate. There are many bullock carts there. Ask who will return to our commune and take their car."
Zhou Jiao looked at the left and right sides of the street suspiciously, "Auntie, how long is it to walk away from the county seat?"
"A little more than an hour. Don't walk. The road is all mud. Our fellows are enthusiastic. If you go back to the commune, they will bring you back."
I heard that Zhou Jiao didn't care about the bullock cart issue for a few hours. She then asked: "Along the way, are there villages around? Aren't they all wasteland?"
"No, it's all villages. Every few miles is a village. My family is not far ahead. It's a pity that I have to go to work, or I will accompany you to the county town."
Zhou Jiao knew what she heard, and she quickly refused: "You are about to be late. Go to work first. I don't wait for the bullock cart. I walk and wait for an hour."
Aunt Lin thought that there were residents along the way, and it was not dangerous at all. She smiled and nodded, "It's okay. Remember to call someone when you encounter problems. Get in the cart when you see the bullock cart."
After Zhou Jiao bid her farewell, she walked forward quickly. I thought to myself, if something really happened, she had to call someone? But this Aunt Lin really feels relieved.
She touched her face as she walked, wondering if she was ugly, which did not conform to the other's aesthetic point of view. You must know that every time you go around like this, people around you have to discourage you.
The narcissistic Zhou Jiao went all the way and found that this place was really good, at least there were no second-rate people, and there were people doing farm work everywhere in the fields. The bullock carts passing by will also subconsciously slow down, and the owner of the cart will also look at her, and will speed up when she sees that she is not calling.
After walking for half an hour, another bullock cart passed by. This time an old lady yelled to ask her if she was going to the county seat. Seeing her nodded, she was immediately stopped and let her get in the car.
Zhou Jiao laughed happily. What a passion!
Seeing the old lady move out to wait for her to get in the car, she did not refuse, so she climbed up quickly, "Thank you, auntie."
"Girl, why don't you wait on the side of the road? It costs shoes to walk."
"Girl, where are you from?"
"Don't ask, I think this girl should be from the city. Isn't she a girl? I know at a glance that this child went home to play in the countryside before school started."
"The elder sister is right. Girl, lean in and be careful of being bumped to the ground."
Zhou Jiao moved inside because of his enthusiasm. After listening to the enthusiastic aunts, they soon talked about who their daughters would marry at the end of the year, how much they should have, and when they would go to someone's house to help make new quilts. While talking, they actually talked about what dowry they brought when they got married.
When they arrived at the gate of the county, Zhou Jiao followed them out of the car in a daze. If it weren't for the several aunts who went shopping separately, she really wanted to continue listening to gossip.
Compared with some villages, those old ladies have a lot of meaty words. These enthusiastic aunts are telling a funny story, and people can't help but laugh after hearing it.
Compared with the old town, this county is still a bit small, but there are no shortage of supporting facilities. In particular, the health center of the center is not small in scale, and there are also many blue brick buildings.
Zhou Jiao wandered aimlessly. Not far from the purchasing station, she saw a few young girls carrying bamboo baskets, talking and selling embroidery. She followed on a whim.
In front of the purchase station, there was a line selling souvenirs and straw sandals. Zhou Jiao listened to the prices and abacus sounds coming out of it, and shook her head regrettably. Unfortunately, she couldn't set up a stall opposite!
"Sister, they really don't accept embroidery. What do you think?"
"That's right, if you knew you didn't listen to the second sister, we might as well bring the dry goods from the family and sell them."
"Well, don't blame Xiao Zhu, it's not bad to keep it for you as a dowry."
"Bad girl, don't be ashamed, say everything."
"Stop arguing, what shall we do next? I have to go to work this afternoon. Hurry up and find a way."
"I will go back and there is no car, how about we pool the money to buy the noodles?"
"I have no money."
"Second sister, you are the most furious!"
Zhou Jiao laughed sullenly at the sound of their conversation. Seeing them about to leave, she followed for a while and found that these girls were out of the city gate, and hurried forward to say hello.
"Little sister, are you selling embroidery? Can you show me?"
One of the girls glared at her, "Who is the little sister? You are not so courageous. She is obviously younger than us, so she called our little sister..."
A girl next to her quickly grabbed her ~EbookFREE.me~ and smiled apologetically at Zhou Jiao, "My second sister is a bit aggressive, don't be surprised."
Zhou Jiao looked at the girl just now and smiled happily.
Doesn't her son usually talk like this?
Seeing their misunderstanding, she smiled and said: "My son is five years old. Are you going to sell embroidery, can you let me see first, if appropriate, I will take it."
Several girls opened their mouths in shock by her saying that my son is five years old, as if not listening to Zhou Jiao's words.
Zhou Jiao reluctantly pointed to the bamboo baskets they were carrying, "Don't you want to sell it?"
The one who answered the question immediately woke up immediately, put down the bamboo basket, took out a pillow towel from it, unfolded it for Zhou Jiao to watch, and hurriedly said: "These cloths are woven by our sisters. I heard that some girls in the city do not The embroidered pillow top was sold back to the village and said that we thought it was true, but we didn't expect it to be a lie."
Zhou Jiao somewhat understood that this matter was misunderstood by the girls. They must be a private transaction and did not go through the channel of the purchase station. She didn't intend to explain to them that speculation was a serious mistake at this time, and one might ruin these little girls.
"How much do you plan to sell?"
"what……"
Unexpectedly, when Zhou Jiao spoke, the girls were dumbfounded. They really didn't know how much they could sell. They only heard the villagers say they could sell. They thought they would give the price when they went to the purchase station.
Zhou Jiao patted her forehead speechlessly. Considering that her ultimate goal is not these, she can only say: "Apart from these embroidery products, can you sell the homespun cloth you weave?"
"Sell! But you have to go back with us."
Zhou Jiao nodded. Isn't this all right? When they arrive in their village, they will be able to find out what local products are with the aunts in their family.
