Become a burden in a period novel

It’s not that Qin Wangshu doesn’t want to buy ducklings and geese, but no one would hatch them in the middle of winter, and they would be impossible to keep alive in such a cold weather.

These duck and goose eggs look fresh. Even if they are not fresh, they should be able to regain their activity by soaking in well water. I’m afraid they have been pickled, and then they cannot be hatched.

Fortunately, these eggs were not pickled. Qin Wangshu directly paid for all the duck and goose eggs without even bargaining.

Seeing that Qin Wangshu was so straightforward, the aunt who was selling duck eggs directly passed the basket of duck eggs to her.

After expressing his gratitude, Qin Wangshu carried the basket back to Aunt Luo.

Aunt Luo is still picking out socks. These socks are made of good material, but they all have defects, so they don’t require tickets and are sold at a very cheap price.

"Xiao Qin, where did you go just now?" Aunt Luo took some time out of her busy schedule to pay some attention to Qin Wangshu.

"I went over there and bought some duck eggs." Qin Wangshu asked Aunt Luo to look at the duck eggs in her basket. As for the goose eggs, he had asked her to put them in the space.

"What are you buying this for?" Aunt Luo frowned, but didn't say anything else. "Come and pick out some pairs of socks."

"Okay." Qin Wangshu carefully placed the basket steady, and then began to pick socks. In fact, there was nothing to pick, he was just looking for some defective products with less serious defects.

Qin Wangshu also saw some female educated youth coming to pick out socks. After seeing each other, they nodded.

Qin Wangshu didn't pick too many pairs, just enough to wear. After paying the bill, she and Aunt Luo went shopping at other stalls.

Seeing someone selling red paper, Aunt Luo went over and bought some.

"Aunt, aren't you going to buy Spring Festival couplets?" Qin Wangshu felt a little strange when he saw that Aunt Luo only bought red paper instead of Spring Festival couplets.

"The captain's calligraphy is very good. We usually buy red paper and ask him to write for us." Aunt Luo explained.

"Wow, the captain has such a skill!" Qin Wangshu also attended a training course to learn calligraphy, but she had no talent at all. After several years, the words she wrote were still a mess, so she stopped learning.

Because her handwriting is not beautiful, she is particularly envious of people who have beautiful handwriting.

"He was very smart when he was young, so his clan sent him to a private school for a few years. But later on, there was a war, so he joined the army. It was because he could read and had served in the army that he became the captain." Aunt Luo said, rolling up the red paper she had bought and putting it in her backpack, then walking to the other side with Qin Wangshu.

Qin Wangshu found it magical. Her grandfather looked very much like the team leader. His calligraphy was also very beautiful. Someone once asked him to write Spring Festival couplets for them. Unfortunately, when she was born, her grandfather no longer wrote them and people just bought ready-made couplets.

She learned about her grandfather writing Spring Festival couplets from her cousins.

Grandpa didn't go to school for a long time either, and later joined the army. But he could write well, while she, the one with the highest education in the family, had the worst handwriting.

Knowing this, Qin Wangshu felt a stronger sense of belonging to this world. Although this was a world in a book, it was also the world her ancestors once lived in, and it was home to many people as simple as her ancestors.

"Aunt, what kind of content does the team leader usually write?" Qin Wangshu was very curious about this matter.

"Just the usual stuff." Aunt Luo saw another stall selling daily necessities and she hurried over.

Qin Wangshu stopped talking and squeezed in with Aunt Luo. She saw someone selling kitchen knives and decided to buy one. This way, she wouldn't have to borrow the kitchen knife from Aunt Luo every time she sneaked in to have a snack.

And if she puts the kitchen knife in the space, she can take it out to defend herself if she encounters any emergency. But she has to separate it from Aunt Luo, otherwise she can't explain why she bought it.

But soon there was an opportunity. Aunt Luo took a fancy to the cloth shoes sold by a woman. Aunt Luo could make clothes but not shoes. Usually she asked other people in the team to make her shoes. Now she happened to meet someone selling shoes, so she wanted to buy two pairs and also help Qin Wangshu pick two pairs.

Seeing that Aunt Luo was attracted by the shoes, Qin Wangshu told her that she was going to go somewhere else and would come back to see her later.

"Go ahead, but be careful and don't squeeze into the crowd." Aunt Luo warned.

"it is good."

After Qin Wangshu separated from Aunt Luo, she went to the place where kitchen knives were sold. She not only bought kitchen knives, but also some pottery jars and seasonings, which she put at the bottom of the backpack, then put into the space to block other people's sight.

As she was walking around, she saw Mengge's men. The man also knew Qin Wangshu. After being stunned for a moment, he made a gesture to her and asked her to go to the other side.

Qin Wangshu looked around and saw that there was no one he knew, so he walked straight to the place he pointed.

Qin Wangshu walked in the direction the man pointed. After walking for a few minutes, she was far away from the crowd. There was a forest over there. Before she entered the forest, she heard footsteps coming from behind.

Qin Wangshu turned around and saw the person who was gesturing to her.

"Is there something?" Qin Wangshu stopped where he was.

"Brother Meng asked me to come find you tomorrow. I didn't expect to meet you here." The man stood ten steps behind Qin Wangshu and did not come any closer.

"Brother Meng is looking for me? The black market is open again?" Qin Wangshu was a little excited. She was not short of money now, but she still lacked some things, most of which could be bought on the black market.

"I guess so." The man nodded.

"Count?" Qin Wangshu was very curious. If it can be opened, then it can be opened. If it cannot be opened, then it cannot be opened. What does that mean?

"It's the end of the year, everyone needs supplies, but the supply can't keep up, so naturally we have to think of other ways. Although that guy doesn't like the black market, he doesn't dare to offend public anger." After all, everyone is going to celebrate the New Year, and if he continues to arrest people, no one would be willing.

"Oh, so how much do you need?" Qin Wangshu asked.

"The more the better!" The man naturally wanted more goods. The more goods he had, the more money he would make.

"Okay, give me two days to prepare, and I'll deliver the goods to the usual place. I still have some fruits here, do you want some?" Qin Wangshu mentioned the fruits that had been left for a long time and that she couldn't finish eating.

"Of course, you prepare the goods and I'll go back and talk to Brother Meng. But I'm afraid I can't pay you in advance this time."

"It's okay. I believe in Meng Ge's character. Well, I'm going back first. My elders should be looking for me."

"After two days, we'll meet at the same place and time."

"Well, then remember to bring me a flashlight. It's too dark at night." Qin Wangshu suddenly thought of this.
