"Oh, you mean the flour ones!"
The owner of the grocery store looked at Lin Wanwan and said.
"Yes, those are the ones. Didn't I tell you? Come and get them!"
Lin Wanwan looked at the boss and said.
"I have prepared the goods. Do you need our guys to help you deliver the goods? If so, we can help you deliver the goods after paying the payment."
The owner of the grocery store clearly knows the process.
Lin Wanwan looked at the grocery store owner, smiled softly, and said, "That's great, I'm worried about how to move back. I'll help you."
When the boss heard this, he immediately ordered the boy next to him: "Man, please deliver the goods to her house."
The waiter responded and quickly started loading the flour onto the bullock cart. He moved skillfully, and it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done something like this.
After Lin Wanwan paid the money, she and Gu Yishen prepared to go home.
After a while, everything was ready. The man drove the bullock cart and walked behind Lin Wanwan's carriage.
Gu Yishen drove the carriage, and Lin Wanwan sat on the carriage, feeling happy.
The scenery along the way was breathtaking. They enjoyed the scenery and chatted.
The ox cart followed the carriage, making a "squeak" sound, which was a wonderful sound.
The sun was setting in the west, and the sunset glow on the horizon turned half of the sky red.
Lin Wanwan not only bought flour but also other things at the grocery store. I gained a lot this time.
Lin Wanwan thought of buying piglets. She almost forgot that the person who bought the piglets would send piglets to their home.
"By the way, some people who buy piglets will send piglets to their homes." She said to Gu Yishen.
After Gu Yishen heard it, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Really? That's great. If you don't tell me, I will forget it."
Lin Wanwan felt a little excited when she thought of Mother Gu's expression when she saw the piglet. She imagined Mother Gu holding the piglet, she must be very happy.
"Let's go quickly. Let's go home early and let mom see the piglet." Lin Wanwan said.
After Gu Yi listened deeply, he hurriedly drove the carriage. The sound of the rolling wheels and the "squeaking" of the oxcart were intertwined and echoed on the country road. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, and they seemed reluctant to leave.
The bullock cart followed behind, not daring to stop for a moment.
"Our village is not far ahead. Work harder. Thank you for your hard work!"
Lin Wanwan looked back at the bullock cart driver and shouted.
"Hey, that's good!" the waiter responded loudly.
Lin Wanwan looked back at him and saw that he was sweating profusely, but he was still driving the bullock cart energetically. She couldn't help feeling a little grateful in her heart, "I'll give you some tips when I get back later. Thank you very much for today."
"Thank you ma'am, this is what I should do."
The man smiled honestly, showing his white teeth. The setting sun reflected on his bronze face, giving it a faint luster.
When they returned to Gu's house, many villagers gathered around the door of Gu's house to look curiously.
It turned out that the piglets bought by Lin Wanwan had arrived. The delivery boss was waiting for Lin Wanwan to pay.
Lin Wanwan quickly paid the money to the boss who sent the piglets, and then asked her to help put them at the back of the yard.
There is a large open space in the Gu family's backyard, which is fenced. Very suitable for raising pigs.
When the villagers saw the piglets, they all gathered around to watch, talking about these little piglets and secretly looking at them with envy.
"The little daughter-in-law of the Gu family has become rich. She buys piglets and grain. What is she doing with so much?" A villager asked curiously as he looked at the things Lin Wanwanhao and Gu Yishen bought.
"Yeah, is it necessary to buy so much?" another villager agreed.
Lin Wanwan was not angry when she heard these words.
She knew that these villagers were just curious and had no ill intentions. She smiled and explained: "I bought these things to make our family's life better. I bought piglets to increase my income, and I bought grain to store some food for emergencies. But I heard about the news next door. There is a famine in many counties and cities, and we don’t know if our county will be in that situation. We need to prepare in advance.”
The village chief was also at the scene. Hearing Lin Wanwan's words, he pondered for a while and said slowly, "What you said makes sense. I also heard that there is a famine in the county next door. The situation is indeed pitiful."
The village chief's words silenced the villagers for a while. They looked at Lin Wanwan and Gu Yishen with envy in their eyes. It seems that we need to prepare in advance, otherwise if famine really comes, it will be really difficult to live by then.
"What you buy is also the responsibility of the third daughter-in-law of the Gu family. There is a famine in the next county. If you are worried too, you can stock up on some food, so you don't have to worry so much."
The village chief looked at Lin Wanwan and said with a smile.
"The village chief is still wise!"
Gu Yi said with a deep smile.
"The village chief is right. We need to be aware of the crisis. There is nothing wrong with making preparations in advance. Although we also have grain in our own fields, we can buy some that we don't have. In case of emergency, there is nothing wrong with it. As for being so passive."
Lin Wanwan continued, although she also knew that the villagers may not have so much silver to buy a lot of things, but she was afraid that they might not be able to buy it even if they had silver!
…
After the villagers finished speaking, they also left the Gu family.
The villagers slowly dispersed.
As night falls, the Gu family's lights are brightly lit.
Lin Wanwan stood in the yard, looking at the piglets she had just bought. Their chubby bodies look particularly cute. She gently stroked the head of one of the piglets, filled with anticipation.
She looked back at Gu Yishen who was busy at the side. His figure looked particularly tall in the moonlight.
The night wind blew gently, bringing a bit of coolness. But Lin Wanwan felt warm in her heart, feeling that if she prepared these grains, she wouldn't have to be afraid even if a famine came.
"Daughter-in-law! You must have spent a lot of money buying so much!"
Mother Gu looked at these things and seemed a little distressed. I'm afraid it won't be used up and it will be wasted.
"Mom, we spent a lot of money. We also bought a carriage. It will be much easier to go to the county or town in the future. It doesn't have to take so long. If you want to go to the county in the future, let Gu Yishen drive the carriage. .”
Lin Wanwan answered with a smile.
"Yes, mother, the quality of this carriage is very good, it looks good, and it is very comfortable to ride on. You will definitely like it."
Gu Yi looked at his mother deeply and explained carefully.
Mother Gu thought for a while and felt that her son and daughter-in-law were right, so she nodded, looked at them and smiled.
Then she went to the backyard to look at the piglets, and took some leftovers to feed them first.
Mother Gu was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear when she saw these piglets. She stroked the piggy's head with a happy smile on her face.
As night falls, the moonlight shines on the quiet village, and everything looks so beautiful.
