The cannon fodder just wants to survive until the end

Chapter 104 The Female Monk Wants to Ascend 7

This time the store owner's attitude was better. Although they felt that Ming Huaixi, a child, could not buy much, they did not shout to drive her away.

Every piece of clothing in this clothing shop is marked with a price. Ming Huaixi took a fancy to two simple boys' styles in dark green, which are more resistant to stains.

He stopped, pointed at the suit and said to the waiter, "I want these two suits. Can you pack them for me? Here's the money."

Ming Huaixi took out a few ounces of silver and handed it to the clerk.

The waiter didn't expect Ming Huaixi to really buy it, and was stunned for a moment. The owner of the clothing store came at this time, smiled gently at Ming Huaixi, and said, "Of course." Then he instructed the waiter, "Hurry up and pack the clothes for our little guest."

"Yes, yes, I'll go right away." The waiter finally reacted, took the silver from Ming Huaixi and went to take off the clothes.

The boss was a kind-faced lady. While the waiter was busy, she called Ming Huaixi, "Come, come, little guest, sit down for a while and wait."

"I don't want to sit down. It will be done soon. I'll just stand for a while." Ming Huaixi rejected the boss's kindness. The waiter was very efficient and would pack it up in a short while. She still had to rush back to the village before dark, so she didn't bother the boss.

The boss smiled, told her to do as she pleased, and went to check the account book.

The waiter brought over the wrapped clothes and the changed copper coins, "Here you go, little guest."

"Thank you." Ming Huaixi thanked him and went out. Now the sun had set and it would soon be dark. It would be difficult to travel after dark, so it would be better to get back to the village before dark.

After Ming Huaixi left, the boss stared at her back in a trance, "Seeing her is like seeing my daughter. If she were still here, she would be this big, little, maybe she would be buying something in some store."

The boss had a daughter before, but she fell seriously ill and died. Since then, the boss has not been so concerned about the shop. He only comes to check the accounts occasionally and gives some money to beggars on the street.

If I meet a girl who is about the same age as my deceased daughter on the street, I will play with her and tease her for a while, just like I would with my own daughter.

Ming Huaixi returned to the village with the last bit of light, "——Gurgle"

"Oh no, I forgot to buy food. I'm so hungry!" Ming Huaixi was hungry and then he remembered that he forgot to buy food this time. It was a mistake. The village chief had already delivered food today and would not deliver it again until tomorrow.

It was so late that Ming Huaixi couldn't go out to find food, so he curled up on the bed, stroking his stomach, imagining that he had everything in his dream, and fell asleep hungry.

Huaixi woke up at dawn, this time because she was hungry. She never thought that the first difficulty she encountered in this world would be hunger.

Ming Huaixi found a bucket with some water in it that the original owner had prepared. He didn't bother to look for a bowl. He scooped the water in his hands and drank a few sips before he felt a little full. Although he was still very hungry, his physical hunger was relieved a little.

After drinking enough water, Ming Huaixi felt that he had some strength, so he got up and went out to look for something to eat.

If he went to the town at this time, the restaurants would probably be closed and the vendors would not be on the streets. Ming Huaixi decided to try his luck in the mountains.

The sun has not risen yet, the sky is dim and only human silhouettes can be seen. Ming Huaixi went up the mountain. Maybe he was lucky, as he came across a nest of pheasant eggs in the grass by the roadside just as he reached the foot of the mountain.

"Great! Finally, there is something to eat." Ming Huaixi quickly ran to the nest of pheasant eggs, looked around, and seeing no other animals, he picked up the pheasant eggs with confidence.

There were more than a dozen pheasant eggs, and Ming Huaixi couldn't hold them with her hands alone, so she wrinkled her outer layer of clothes to form a pocket, found a sheltered place, picked up some firewood and roasted the pheasant eggs. (Don't follow her example, setting fire to the forest is a taboo, I just did it for the plot????3????)

After a while, the pheasant eggs were roasted. Ming Huaixi pulled one out of the fire and, not caring about the heat, quickly peeled the skin and ate one.

The water I drank before going out has long been digested. Now my stomach is burning with hunger. I felt better after eating a pheasant egg. Finally, I don’t feel that hungry anymore.

Ming Huaixi did not eat the remaining pheasant eggs. He planned to eat them later, otherwise he would feel uncomfortable.

Ming Huaixi took out the remaining pheasant eggs from the fire, and when they were no longer hot, he wrapped them up in large leaves and said, "Calling home."

Ming Huaixi still has to go to town today. In addition to money, he also has to prepare some food. Otherwise, what will he eat in the wilderness where there is no village in front, no shop behind, and no mountain in the back? He can't starve, so he still has to prepare food.

After returning home, Ming Huaixi changed into a set of newly bought clothes to avoid being bullied when going out. Sometimes, a nice set of clothes can also help people judge whether a person is someone they can afford to offend. That's why you have to behave yourself when you go out, otherwise some useless and disgusting people will want to disgust you from time to time.

After staying in the mountains for some time, he went home to change clothes. It was already dawn. Ming Huaixi's father was a hunter, and their home was near the foot of the mountain, far away from the villagers. As a result, no one noticed Ming Huaixi's drastic change.

The village chief did come to deliver food once, but he called Ming Huaixi outside the door but there was no response. He went in and looked around but no one was there. He thought Ming Huaixi had gone out to play, so he put the bowl of rice on the table and left, thinking that he would eat the rice when she came back.

Ming Huaixi came to the town wearing new clothes. He first ran to the food store to ask for some flour, rice and other things. The store staff was a little suspicious of Ming Huaixi, a little kid, asking for so many things. "Kid, where are your parents? Why did they let you buy things alone? Can you carry these things home?"

Ming Huaixi knew that he couldn't carry these things with his small body, but didn't the store have a clerk? As long as he had money, he could hire a clerk to deliver them back to the village.

Hearing the clerk's question, Ming Huaixi modified his words a little, "My parents are both busy (of course they are busy since they passed away), and I live with my grandparents (I lived with the village chief's grandparents before I was two years old, so why doesn't it count?), they are old (they are indeed old), and it is not easy for them to come to town, so they let me come to buy, and they said our store has a very good reputation and will not bully children."

When the guy heard this, he imagined that Ming Huaixi's parents had moved away and left her to her grandparents. Her grandparents were old and had difficulty moving, so they had to rely on a child to take care of her. He immediately looked at Ming Huaixi with some pity.
