At dinner time in the evening, I cooked the food sent by Uncle Liu’s house.

With rice, both of us were full.

The picked vegetable leaves are fed directly to the chickens.

It's getting dark.

Su Cai'er took the small wooden stick and drove the chicken back to the woodshed first.

Because Zhao Ce said that he would take Su Caier into the city.

He then thought of taking some of the sugar at home out first.

Then I took the little girl to buy all the things I needed to buy.

night.

Su Cai'er was lying on the bed and asked with some uncertainty: "Do you really want to take me out, husband?"

Zhao Ce said: "Don't want to go out?"

Su Cai'er was silent for a moment and then said honestly: "I don't know..."

When I first heard it, I felt really happy.

She has never been out of the city.

But after thinking about it for a while, I felt that I didn’t really want to go out anymore.

Zhao Ce said: "I don't understand those things about making shoes."

"You still have to pick something convenient yourself, so that it will be easier for you to work."

Su Cai'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously.

She lived to be 16 years old and never went to the city.

I never even went out to the village before.

The first time I left the village, my uncle and the others wanted to take me to the official matchmaker to find someone to marry.

Then, I met my husband.

Su Cai'er was a little scared. She didn't understand anything.

When you go to the city, what will you do to embarrass your husband?

Moreover, her eyes are not easy to see.

Therefore, after Zhao Ce finished speaking, the little girl still seemed hesitant.

Zhao Ce also saw the little girl's nervousness.

So, he pretended to be a little embarrassed and said: "I'm a grown man, and I can't remember many little things at home very well."

"I've been to the city several times before, but I never thought about coming back to buy soybean oil."

"If I go out by myself again, I guess there will still be a lot of omissions."

"You are the little housekeeper of the family. You must know what is lacking in the family."

"I'll take you with me. We'll be in the city all at once and buy all the things we need urgently."

"It also saves me the trouble of running back and forth like this."

When Su Cai'er heard what her husband said, she felt a sense of responsibility arise spontaneously.

Yes, she is the housekeeper of the family, and her husband also entrusted her with all the money for safekeeping.

Then she has to work hard for her family.

Thinking like this.

Su Cai'er said seriously: "Okay then."

Zhao Ce comforted her and said, "Don't worry about your eyes."

"Anyway, as long as you don't look at others, you won't be able to tell."

Saying this, Su Cai'er finally felt a lot more relieved.

The matter is settled.

I'm going out tomorrow.

The little girl quietly turned over a few times on the bed, as if she was not yet sleepy.

Su Cai'er heard before that everyone in the city is very rich.

Her new clothes haven't been finished yet. Wouldn't it be bad if she went out wearing her old clothes?

Of my two clothes, even the better one had a lot of patches on it.

She was used to wearing it and didn't think anything was wrong.

But when I got home, I saw my husband's robe.

She wondered if people in the city all wore clothes without patches?

If the old clothes I wear go out and are seen by classmates who know my husband, will they laugh at me?

The little girl stared sadly at the dark room, thinking constantly in her mind.

I feel like I won't be able to sleep tonight.

Zhao Ce, who was standing next to him, felt both amused and distressed as he listened to the movements of the people next to him.

When I was a child.

If grandpa had told him in advance that he would take him to the market the next day, he would have been so excited that he couldn't sleep.

But this little girl probably has a lot of other emotions mixed in with her excitement.

Zhao Ce asked: "Can't you sleep?"

Su Cai'er whispered: "I'm sorry, husband, I disturbed you."

"I'm just a little nervous."

He stretched out his hand and took hold of her husband's sleeve.

Su Cai'er said: "Husband, let's sleep."

After saying that, he closed his eyes.

Zhao Ce said yes.

The breathing of the person next to him became lighter in the blink of an eye.

After the little girl fell asleep, she slowly let go of her hand holding her sleeve.

Zhao Ce turned over and reached for the quilt to cover her belly.

Then he said softly: "Kid, don't be too nervous, just go to sleep..."

Early the next morning.

The little girl put on her better clothes, which were lightly patched.

Because there aren’t too many things to do at home these two days.

While breakfast was being made, Su Cai'er had already taken stock of all the things she wanted to buy at home.

Zhao Ce packed the sugar and the two of them finished their breakfast.

Zhao Ce asked: "Have you memorized everything you need?"

The little girl started to point her fingers together.

"I need to buy soybean oil, tools for making shoes, some bran to feed the chickens, and two pots..."

The little girl babbled.

After finishing reading, he raised his little head and looked at Zhao Ce with big eyes blinking.

That little expression seemed to say: "Husband, would you like to give me a compliment?"

Zhao Ce smiled and nodded and said, "There are quite a lot of things to buy."

"You can still do it."

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of so much."

Su Cai'er was praised by her husband and said a little shyly: "Maybe what I said is not accurate or complete."

Zhao Ce said: "It's okay. If there are any odds and ends that are missing then, I will buy them slowly when I go to the city."

The old hen that was added yesterday has not been released either.

Su Cai'er grabbed it and tied its feet with a rope.

I took a small handful of rice and threw in a lot of vegetable leaves.

Su Cai'er also squatted down and muttered to the hen pecking at the rice: "When we come back, we will lay an egg for you."
