Buy beef (1)

Zhang Xu nodded when he heard what the little girl said, and then said, "I will ask someone to find these two books for you."

"Um."

"Hurry up and hide those things on the table. Although those things are not eye-catching, they are not suitable for use now."

"I know." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she packed up her things and took them to her room to hide them. She planned to wait for Zhang Xu to return to the mountain before storing them in the space.

"Button, button, button... button, button, button..."

Lu Xiaoxiao had just packed her things when she heard a knock on the door. She couldn't help but mutter in her heart what had happened in the past two days and why so many people came knocking on her door.

Lu Xiaoxiao walked to the door of the courtyard and opened the door. She saw her second sister standing at the door of her house, so she said to her second sister: "Second sister, come in and sit down. Is it cold along the way?"

"It's not cold. I'm sweating after walking for such a long time. I came to you today to ask if you want to buy beef." The second sister said after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.

"Where can I buy beef?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked immediately after hearing what her second sister said.

"They are sold in Hongxing Village. A cow broke its leg in Hongxing Village two days ago, so their village applied to the organization to kill the cow."

"I want to buy it, should I go now?"

"right."

"Then wait for me. I'll go inside and get the backpack and go with you."

"good."

When Lu Xiaoxiao walked into the main room, she said to Zhang Xu: "A little sister from the village and I went to the next village to buy beef. If we don't come back in time at noon, you can put the unfinished chicken soup yesterday on the small stove to heat it for lunch."

Zhang Xu nodded when he heard what the little girl said, then took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it to the little girl and said, "Buy more."

Lu Xiaoxiao was not polite to Zhang Xu, but took the money directly from Zhang Xu's hand, and then said: "No problem."

"Be safe on the road." Zhang Xu said when he saw the little girl walking out of the house.

"knew."

"Xiaoxiao, was someone talking to you in the room just now?"

"Well, my brother is recuperating at my house." Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing what her second sister said.

"Don't you have any relatives?" The second sister looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with a puzzled look on her face and asked.

"The son of my father's comrade in arms."

"So that's it. I thought he was your long-lost brother just now." The second sister said after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.

"Haha... How is it possible? My father only has a daughter like me." Lu Xiaoxiao said with a smile after hearing what her second sister said.

"Yeah, it was just my wildest thoughts."

"Second sister, how far is it from our village to Hongxing Village?"

"It's about an hour's walk."

"So far? It's almost the same distance to the county seat." Lu Xiaoxiao said after hearing what her second sister said.

"It's not that far away. It's just that the weather is not good right now, so it takes so long. If it's summer, it only takes twenty minutes."

"You, let's hurry up and go, don't go too late and the good meat will be picked away by others."

"good."

An hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao and her second sister arrived at the grain drying ground in Hongxing Village. She saw the butcher dissecting a cow there, so she asked her second sister, "Second sister, what part of the meat do you want to buy today?"

"I don't buy meat."

"Why did you come all the way to Hongxing Village if you don't want to buy meat?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked her second sister with a puzzled look on her face after hearing her words.

"I'm here to buy a cow head today." The second sister replied after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
