MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 7
After being beaten, Chen Si really didn't want to force Xu He to inquire about Xu Shaochun. He rubbed his beaten chest and gasped for air, howling in a low voice, half of it was real pain, and half of it was fake.
Seeing the situation, the two women on the bullock cart glanced left and right at Xu He, all the meaning of the search was written in their eyes, Zhang Fangyuan ignored Chen Si, instead he frowned and gave the two women a bad look, hanging down. The palm between the knees suddenly clenched into a fist again, and there was a rattling sound between the joints.
The woman's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately retracted her scrutinizing gaze politely, not daring to vent her anger, and being careful not to look elsewhere.
Xu He looked at Zhang Fangyuan, the two of them looked at each other, hurriedly glanced at each other without speaking, and the vest lay on his lap safely, blocking most of the cold wind.
His hands were covered by a furry vest, and the soft and smooth touch was very obvious on the back of his hands.
Rabbit fur is of excellent quality and keeps warm. His second sister has a scarf made of white rabbit fur. It costs 40 cents a piece, but it is really warm and looks good when worn around her neck. It complements her second sister's pink face. Yuxue is even cuter, and the second sister is usually reluctant to wear it.
If it weren't for being able to hunt, no ordinary family could afford such an expensive fur vest.
There was an indescribable feeling in Xu He's heart, the care and protection that his family and relatives had never given him, he actually felt it from a poor judge in the village.
How can this feel good.
The ox cart followed the official road to the city in about an hour, and Zhang Fangyuan paid for the ox cart master. The three kind-hearted people who knew how to do business got two renminbi and received ten renminbi.
Chen Si was still thinking about asking Xu He to bring pastries to Xu Shaochun, but thinking about Zhang Fangyuan's dull fist, he held back his words, and stood alone at a distance, waiting for Zhang Fangyuan to go into the city together.
"thanks."
After Xu He got out of the ox cart, he took the vest and returned it to the owner, and thanked him with the money for the ox cart.
Zhang Fangyuan took the vest that was still warm, he casually tucked it under his arm, and asked, "Are you suffering from a cold?"
"Nothing serious."
"Is it the wind and cold from the rain last time?"
Xu He said: "It has been a bit cold for a long time, but the cold weather seems to be more serious recently."
Without waiting for Zhang Fangyuan to say more, Xu He directly cut off the conversation between the two: "I'm entering the city."
Zhang Fangyuan didn't bother anyone, and saw the little brother walking forward with a basket on his back, thoughtful.
"Since when have you become so familiar with Brother He?"
From afar, Chen Si saw the two of them muttering something, and when he saw Brother He walking up, he looked at Zhang Fangyuan suspiciously: "People are still staring after walking so far? You are afraid that people will be exposed to the wind and give you a vest, and you are asking people to ride in an ox cart, don't you!"
Zhang Fangyuan grabbed Chen Si's raised index finger suddenly: "Don't talk nonsense."
"Who is talking nonsense, you are protecting Brother He like this just because you want to get closer to Shaochun. It's all brothers talking straight. Anyway, there are many people in the village staring at Shaochun, so you don't have to hide it. Well, we can compete fairly."
Zhang Fangyuan gave Chen Si a sideways look, speechless, and strode towards the city.
"But you go to another house to prepare for a meeting, and you think that Shaochun is even more hopeless?"
Chen Si was a little confused, so he hurriedly chased after him.
Following the instructions of his fourth aunt He, Zhang Fangyuan first bought a box of honey-flavored shortbread, and then pulled two pieces of cloth. In order to show his sincerity, after buying these basic gifts from the villagers , and added a box of silk flowers that girls will wear at home.
He felt that it was really troublesome. The one store in the east and the one in the west bought them with many different styles, so he might as well just take two pieces of meat to Guang's house, and Guang's family would probably like it if he saved the trouble.
The fourth aunt laughed and scolded him for being so unsuitable for the etiquette in the village, because people would deduct points from the begging family when they saw each other.
Auntie had specially confessed this thing, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and find a jewelry shop that he had never stepped into before, and as soon as he inquired with Xiaoer, he immediately brought out big boxes and small boxes.
When the box is opened, it is colorful, and there are all kinds of flowers. The price is not judged by the size, but by the degree of delicacy. The more it looks like a real flower, the more expensive it is.
Looking at the pile of silk flowers, Zhang Fangyuan frowned and fiddled with them: "It's better to wear real flowers, wouldn't it be more real?"
Xiaoer said: "Look at what this guest officer said, silk flowers bloom much longer than fresh flowers."
Zhang Fangyuan knew nothing about these things, and had no interest in understanding them, so he said in a business-like manner, "Take two pairs."
"What kind of flowers does the guest officer want?"
"Just pick two festive ones for you, and ask your relatives to see them."
Xiao Er was eager: "Okay, I'll choose two beautiful and festive flowers for you, and I'm sure the girl will be happy when she sees them."
Chen Si was also eye-opening, dazzled: "Far away, why don't I pick one for Shaochun too? I think she should like it."
As soon as the words were finished, Xiao Er, who had wrapped the silk flowers in a box, said to Zhang Fangyuan with a smile, "Silk flowers are fifteen yuan a pair, two pairs are thirty yuan, and a gift box is twelve yuan. Guest officer, pay here."
Chen Si shut his mouth immediately when he heard the words, and hurriedly put back the silk flowers he was playing and looking at carefully. The fake flowers are too expensive. Four flowers plus a box cost forty-two yuan, and pork can eat two catties. Jewelry shops are really not something ordinary people can come to.
No wonder it is said that getting married is a big hurdle, and it also costs money.
Zhang Fangyuan didn't think it was expensive, mainly because he was used to being extravagant. Although he was determined to be frugal, he thought that the money was spent on the real thing, and it was not a waste of money. When he used to spend money recklessly, he used to go to Fengyuelou, where a meal in the city cost more than 1,000 Wen, but today it cost nearly 300 Wen to buy these things, and he just found it troublesome. , did not feel distressed.
The two came out of the shop, Chen Sidao: "My mother asked me to bring some candles and salt back home, how about we meet up at the tea shed outside the city after shopping?"
Zhang Fangyuan responded, "OK."
On the left and right, he also needs to buy some things that are missing at home, and the two of them will go separately to buy things, and it will be faster to join together.
Zhang Fangyuan was going to a dried fruit shop to buy some dried fruit for Xiaomao to make snacks. Before leaving, he passed a small medical clinic.
"We don't use credit or keep accounts in our medical center. How much should it be?"
"Three doses of common typhoid medicine are only 30 Wen, how come two doses here cost 40 Wen?"
"Food, cloth and clothes can increase in price, but the price of our medicine for curing diseases and saving lives will not go up?" The doctor boy who picked up the medicine said impatiently, "Can you afford it? It's only thirty yuan, so why don't you have it?"
Xu He opened his mouth: "I don't want it anymore."
Hearing the words, the medical boy stroked his sleeves: "The medicines are prepared and you say no, you are so funny, you don't need the things, but you have to pay for them!"
It was also the first time for Xu He to meet such a strong buyer and seller. He frowned and turned around to leave without answering the doctor boy. Suddenly, two men came out of the door and guarded the door.
"If you want to leave, it's not so easy not to lose money."
The medical boy put down his abacus and came out from the counter, sneered and approached Xu He with his hands behind his back: "What's the matter, pay or not?"
Xu He's heart beat a little faster, and he subconsciously stepped back. How could he not be afraid of being surrounded by a few men so unkindly: "How much do you want?"
"The medicine specially prepared for you must not be used by others. If you calculate the manpower and material resources, you will have to pay double the price!"
When Xu He opened his eyes, he also wanted to use the money to calm things down, but there was not enough money to buy medicines, where did he get so much money, and just when he didn't know what to do, two muffled groans suddenly came from behind: "People are quite weird." It's lively, what kind of money do I need to accompany, I'll take a look."
Seeing the two gatekeepers being kicked open and a tall and burly man coming in against the light, the medical boy swallowed slightly and took a step back: "No, nothing."
Zhang Fangyuan threw the medicine bag on the medical boy's face, and pulled Xu He's wrist out of the hospital.
"You have to spend money to see a doctor and buy medicine. From now on, you will see that there are no customers in this small shop in a remote area. You, a little brother, don't go in alone. There are many people in the city who look at peace, and the mixed fish and dragons are comparable to a village. It’s much more chaotic here. Some of them are black shops that specialize in catching orders and bullying them.”
Zhang Fangyuan has been in the city for a long time, and he knows these things very well. If he hadn't been bumped into by him just now, it would be a trivial matter to be asked for money. He might not be sure that these unscrupulous people would do anything. Thinking of this, he couldn't help scolding People.
After talking for a while, the person behind him didn't answer a word, his head was hanging lower than on the scooter, and he walked unsteadily, so he stopped in his tracks.
Xu He didn't know that the person in front of him stopped suddenly, and it was true that what happened just now made him feel lingering fear, but after Zhang Fangyuan came in, he breathed a sigh of relief. With a bang, he bumped directly into Zhang Fangyuan's body and was almost knocked to the ground.
Zhang Fangyuan frowned: "Did you listen to me?"
"Listen, remember."
Zhang Fangyuan was furious, but seeing that he didn't seem to be awake today, he softened his tone: "Is everything sold?"
"Sold a chicken coop and some back ropes."
Later, his throat was really sore, he couldn’t make a sound when he yelled, his head was dizzy, and his whole body was very heavy, so he had to go to a medical clinic to get medicine. He thought that a small medical clinic would be more affordable, but unexpectedly, he went to a black shop by mistake. .
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Xu He looked up at him, his face was already very red, as if he could feel the heat from his skin through the air.
Without saying a word, Zhang Fangyuan grabbed the wrist of the crumbling man and strode forward.
Xu He was a little panicked, but he didn't have the strength to break free from him, he didn't even have the strength to open his mouth to ask him what he wanted, so he was dragged into a big medical clinic on the main street.
The courtyard-shaped two-story medical center is full of patients, the doctors and medical children are a bit busy, Xu He is a little cramped, he has never been to such a large medical center, he doesn't even know where to grab the medicine, and he is flustered The person beside him said: "You wait for me here for a while, I will go to the doctor."
He was placed by Zhang Fangyuan in the place where the patients were waiting for treatment. He watched the familiar figure go to the counter to talk to the doctor boy, acting like a family member would do. The person became weak, his nose became sore and his eyes fogged up inadvertently.
