My parents are both dead, I rely on fishing and farming to support my younger siblings

When Wang Fugui saw Gu Lili giving in and saying she was afraid of him, he rolled his eyes and returned to his seat.

I don't want to quarrel with a yellow-haired girl.

Gu Lili quickly took advantage of this opportunity to slip out.

People still have to know the times and be heroes. This is not the democratic modern world.

The lives of the people here are worthless. Most of those who can sell salt in this era must have some background.

I still have to raise my own younger siblings, so I'd better be careful and not be too reckless.

Wang Fugui glanced at Gu Lili who was leaving, then continued to doze off.

Half an hour later, Wang Fugui suddenly jumped up from his seat.

No, this girl is sick!

What does it mean to be bitten by a dog? That’s why you look at me with fear!

Isn't this clearly saying that I am a dog!

At this time, Gu Lili had already bought almost everything she needed and was walking towards the city gate.

Uncle Dazhu was already waiting at the city gate.

Gu Lili followed Uncle Dazhu back with a basket full of things on her back.

Because the prices in the two time and space are different, Gu Lili buys things by comparing prices.

Buy wherever it’s a good deal.

Gu Lili bought the salt in the mall. She bought one pound for two cents.

Gu Lili also bought two pieces of cloth with different patterns, preparing to buy a new set of clothes for herself and her younger siblings.

What they are wearing now are not only full of patches, but most importantly, they are too short.

Another person made a new pair of shoes, and almost everyone's shoes were left with exposed toes.

Including some needle and thread, it was exactly one hundred wen.

He also bought two pounds of fatty pork to make lard, which cost him seventy cents.

Gu Lili chose to buy pork in town. Although the pork in the mall was cheap, it was only slaughtered a few months ago and did not taste as good as the pork raised at home.

I also bought three sugar biscuits in the mall, spending three cents, but I was afraid that my younger brothers and sisters would suspect me if I bought too much.

Gu Lili observed carefully at the market and it seemed that in this era, not only salt was precious, but sugar was also very precious. She bought a piece and tasted it, but it did not taste good.

Both of them are relatively expensive, the only difference is that sugar is not regulated by the government and can be sold privately.

An idea was about to pop up in Gu Lili's mind.

Although, she can hunt in the wild, sell them to the mall, and then buy some food from the mall.

But the money was not in a good way after all. He was going to use it to build a house and buy a carriage. Five taels of silver was not enough for this.

So, business must be done.

So she planned to buy ten kilograms of wheat.

Wheat in the town sells for ten cents a pound, but only four cents in the mall.

So, Gu Lili chose to buy it in the mall.

When Gu Lili was about to get home, she quietly bought it and put it in her backpack to avoid being tired.

On the way back, because I was carrying a lot of things and was really tired, it took me nearly two hours to get home.

When they arrived at the door of their home, Uncle Dazhu asked Gu Lili to keep the land deed and walked towards his home.

Smoke was already rising from Gu Lili's house, and Gu Siniu was sitting in the yard picking up the wild vegetables they had dug up today.

Seeing Gu Lili, he quickly put down the wild vegetables and ran towards Gu Lili.

"Sister, sister, you're back. You must be tired." Gu Siniu said excitedly.

Originally, he wanted to go to town with his sister today, but his second brother said that it was a long way to go and he was too young to walk fast, which would delay things.

Although she was an only child in her previous life, for some reason, when she saw these three younger siblings, Gu Lili felt a sense of responsibility in her heart.

This may be the blood-thicker-than-water kinship.

Gu Lili smiled and patted Sigou's head, saying, "Sigou, go and call your brothers and sisters to get some delicious food."

When Sigou heard that his sister brought some delicious food, he quickly turned around and went into the house to call Erniu and Huanhuan.

Gu Lili also took the opportunity to buy wheat from the mall and put it in her backpack.

When Gu Huanhuan and Gu Erniu heard that Gu Lili had returned, they hurried out of the house.

Gu Lili took things out of the backpack and called out to the three people, "Come over and eat the sugar cakes."

The three of them came over, and Gu Lili gave each of them a piece of the sugar cake wrapped in oil paper. The three of them took it carefully, fearing that even a little bit of sugar residue would fall.

The three of them stared at the golden fried sugar cakes in their hands and drooled. The sweet aroma had already filled their noses, but when they saw that Gu Lili had no sugar cakes in her hands, no one ate them first.

"Sister, why don't you have it?" Gu Huanhuan asked, swallowing hard.

Gu Lili laughed and said, "I was so hungry while walking just now that I ate first. You guys stop standing there and eat!"

It turned out that the three of them were afraid that Gu Lili would be reluctant to eat it, so they only bought it for the three of them, so they were reluctant to eat it.

After listening to what Gu Lili said, Huanhuan and Sigou started eating.

They didn't devour the food, but took small bites cautiously.

The sweet taste instantly spread in their mouths, and the two children couldn't help but narrow their eyes.

It was just a small bite of the biscuit, which I chewed again and again in my mouth, not wanting to eat it down too early.

This is even more delicious than the white rice I ate yesterday.

Gu Erniu held the pancake in his hand and did not eat it for a long time. Instead, he gave half of it to Gu Lili.

"Sister, I can't eat that much, I'll give you half." Erniu said.

Gu Lili felt warm at heart and did not refuse. She put down the things in her hands, and the four siblings sat in the yard and enjoyed the delicious sugar cakes.

"Sister, this cake is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life." Gu Siniu said with a smile.

Gu Huanhuan ate the cake and said vaguely, "Si Gou, you also said yesterday that rice is the most delicious thing you have ever eaten in your life."

Gu Sigou scratched his head embarrassedly.

The four siblings burst into laughter instantly, and their laughter could be heard over the courtyard.

The swallows that were resting on the eaves were scared away.

After finishing the sugar cake in her hand, Gu Lili continued to take out the things in the backpack one by one.

Linen, pork, salt, everything left the three children stunned.

They had only seen so much pork at their grandparents' house during the Chinese New Year.

As for eating, that is not their turn.

However, even wild vegetables with oil and meat are enough to make them drool.

Looking at the things in front of them, the three of them felt a little dizzy.

"Erniu, don't just stand there, quickly move the things into the house." While calling out to Erniu, Gu Lili picked up the empty backpack and walked towards Aunt Zhang's house.

I was busy buying food today. Next time I should buy a backpack so I don’t have to borrow one.

After returning the backpack, Gu Lili went home.

As soon as I stepped into the house, I saw the three children who were so cheerful just now were now standing with their heads down.

Gu Huanhuan and Gu Sigou were still wiping their tears.

"What's going on here?"
