Chapter 56 Pearl is too selfish
"Dagua, do you know which family in our village has a big steamer?"
"Basically every household has this." Farmers like them usually eat multigrain steamed buns and corn steamed buns, so a steamer is definitely a must.
"Who has extra ones? Maybe they don't use them on weekdays." Dingxiang planned to buy the steamer.
Alas, I still made a mistake. I should have gone to the grocery store when I was in town. There must be some there.
But now that everyone has jumped on the bullock cart, it is obviously unrealistic to go back.
"Mom, do you want to buy a steamer?"
Lilac nodded.
"Da Gua Niang, I have a steamer at home, do you want it?" Lao Litou, who had been concentrating on driving the car, heard that Ding Xiang wanted to buy a steamer and quickly offered his own steamer.
A few years ago, his mother-in-law bought a large steamer from the town and said that the previous one was too small and inconvenient to use.
They were all excuses. The ones she bought were exactly the same size, but she just disliked the old ones because they were too worn and wanted to use new ones.
"My old lady didn't know what she was thinking some time ago. She already had one at home, and she actually bought a new one." Speaking of this old man, I feel a little embarrassed, this prodigal woman.
"If you don't mind it, I'll sell you a new one."
Ding Xiang's eyes lit up and she quickly said: "I don't mind it, I don't mind it. Uncle, you have helped me a lot."
"No, no, no, you have helped me a lot. That steamer is useless and a waste if you keep it at home."
While they were talking, an hour and a half passed and they returned to Linjia Village.
"I'll go back and ask my boy to bring the steamer over." Old Li Tou helped Ding Xiang get the things with attentive service. He only sold a steamer, so he was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.
Ding Xiang nodded, and then she and her son each carried a backpack on their backs, with their hands full of various ingredients, and walked towards their home.
Before I had gone a few steps, a Bagua woman approached me.
He asked mysteriously: "Da Gua Niang, I heard that you have been doing business in the town these two days?"
Ding Xiang glanced at the man, and he seemed familiar.
Oh, by the way, isn't she the woman who pointed at her nose and scolded her for being shameless last time?
One look in her eyes showed that she had bad intentions when she came to talk to her at this moment.
Ding Xiang didn't want to pay attention to her, so she didn't answer her words and turned sideways to avoid the woman.
The woman was ignored, and she spat fiercely on the ground: "What the hell are you still doing business? I won't lose you to death!"
As soon as the mother and son entered the house, two flatterers rushed over.
"Mom, how's the business today? Are they all sold out?" Sangua was worried all day at home. With so many three hundred donkeys rolling around, they wouldn't be all sold out.
"Okay, little brother, you only have your mother now, and you can't even see your elder brother." Lin Dagua pretended to be angry.
Lin Sangua became anxious upon hearing this, and quickly turned around to express his loyalty to his elder brother: "Brother, don't you still know my friendship for you?"
"Mom, have you brought back anything delicious you bought today?" Lin Zhenzhu looked back and forth. Now her biggest expectation every day is that the lazy lady will bring her something delicious when she comes back from town.
"You girl, how can you buy it every day, so you are so greedy?" Ding Xiang frowned and looked at her little daughter.
This child is a bit too selfish and only thinks about himself.
In fact, she is only ten years old. In modern times, most girls of this age are at the age where they act like a spoiled child to their parents.
Therefore, it seems that there is nothing wrong with her being a little selfish.
However, this is not modern times, but ancient times when the children of the poor were already in charge.
Children here are generally precocious. Sangua, for example, is two years younger than Pearl, so he is much more sensible than her.
So, in the final analysis, there is still a problem.
Ding Xiang suddenly felt that this issue deserved her attention, and she would have to educate her little daughter well in the future.
But business has been really busy recently and she doesn't have time.
Forget it, let's guide it slowly.
"Mom, I know I was wrong."
"..."here we go again.
Ding Xiang was speechless. This girl's attitude of admitting her mistake was quick and sincere.
Cunning girl!
"All sold out? Not a single one left?" This time it was Sangua's turn to be shocked.
Ding Xiang nodded and couldn't help but want to test the children's arithmetic, so she called Ergua over who was working hard at the side.
"What are you doing? I'm busy." Lin Ergua looked reluctant and his face was covered with sweat.
Lin Dagua saw that his younger brother was still so contemptuous of their mother, and for the first time his face turned dark toward Ergua.
"Ergua, from now on we must listen to mother and don't be so rebellious again."
"Brother, you..." Lin Ergua stared at his elder brother in disbelief. Did he just hear a hallucination? He actually heard his elder brother call that lazy woman.
Lin Ergua felt that something was wrong, and something must have happened that he didn't know about.
