Chapter 44
Gan Rong's family is not well-off, and she is frugal by nature. In order to buy fresh and cheap ingredients, she often takes the time to take the bus to a place called Shiyang Town in the remote suburbs to buy oil, salt, firewood, rice, vegetables, meat and other things.
It was Saturday and I happened to meet Shiyang Town to go to the market.
Li Chao yelled for a long time and wanted to go out with his godmother and sister. Gan Rong couldn't be pestered. After obtaining Yu Niang's consent, he made three rules with his godson: You can go to the market, but you must be obedient. You can't run around, you must be tired, and you can't walk or take someone to carry it.
In order to be able to play with my godmother and the others, Li Chao nodded randomly like a chicken and agreed.
So early on Saturday morning, Gan Rong took the earliest bus to Shiyang Town to go to the market. When he arrived in Shiyang Town, it was past nine o'clock and the market had already started in the town.
The cassia is so old that she has never been to such a market. It is crowded with people, and you squeeze me, and I squeeze you, shoulder to shoulder, endless.
Li Chao, who is very active and lively by nature, thinks it is so fresh. He has long forgotten what he promised his godmother and wanders around, looking at it strange and enjoying it. Gan Rong is afraid that he will get lost, so he prepared a thick hemp rope at home, and tied one end to his fat waist and the other end to his wrist.
Seeing this, Wanru joked: "We are walking the dog, and let's take a dog that is so fat and naughty!" Li Chao didn't know that his sister talked about him again, and she was giggling with them.
Gan Rong knew that his godson had no food in his mouth and was going to have trouble everywhere, so he led the two sisters to a stall selling sugar cakes and asked them to turn to sugar paintings to see who is lucky.
Li Chao was rushing to turn first, but he only turned to a small flower basket, and then clamored to cheer up his sister, shouting that he must turn to a big dragon! He also plucked his cheeks and tried hard to help Wanru turn the needle with her.
God finally opened his eyes, and Wanru turned to a big sugar dragon. Looking at the sugar painting that was much bigger than himself in her sister's hand, Li Chao drooled, and his eyes were staring straight at the dragon, and he stopped rotating.
How could Wanru not know his little thoughts? She gave Dalong a generous gift to her younger brother and told him to be honest and obedient, and not to run around anymore. If she ran away, she would not only not see her godmother and sister, but also never see Yu Niang and his father again.
Having something delicious on his hands, of course everything is easy to discuss. After hearing what his sister said, Li Chao nodded and agreed: "Okay, okay, sister, I won't run around, be your good dog."
He was at peace here, and Gan Rong then let go of his hands and bargained with others and selected fresh ingredients. The live chickens, ducks and rabbits he bought were so scared that he didn't dare to touch them.
Li Chao was not afraid. He was brave and helped his godmother carry these living things. But after all, he was weak and couldn't walk much, so he shouted that he couldn't handle it anymore.
Gan Rong went to a fellow villager who sold bamboo products and bought him a small bamboo carpet, and asked him to carry the chicken and duck. This made Li very happy. He treated the bamboo carpet as a treasure. He told his godmother and sister that he would write his name on the carpet when he went home, and he would take it to the kindergarten for the children to see, and he would take it home for Yu Niang and Feifei to see it, so that everyone would be jealous and envious of him.
Here, Wanru was already jealous and pestered her mother to buy one for her. She couldn't carry the vegetables and had to carry them on her back.
Li Chao immediately said, "Godmom, buy one, buy one, and buy one for my sister. We can only carry it for the foreign plate!" In the end, Gan couldn't help but buy one for himself. The three of them smiled and happily bought a lot of dishes, filling the three carries.
