Chapter 40: A Little

However, when she thought of this, she remembered something else that most people didn't like, but she thought it was delicious.

The bamboo shoots had been sold out, but there was still a long time before the time they decided with Rong Yan. Xiaoxiao pulled her brothers excitedly. "Let's go buy something."

Ning Erlang thought that he had to buy a few more jars. He had earned more than 460 copper coins today. There were still a lot of bamboo shoots at home. If they sold them all, they could return the money they had spent on the land!

He was full of hope and imagination, so he did not notice that his sister was not going to the grocery store. Ning Dalang did notice, but he saw his sister was very happy, so he did not care. He just followed her until they stood in front of a pork stall.

Ning Erlang swallowed and said, "Sister, although we told Mother to treat ourselves better, aren't you overthinking a little?"

Ning Dalang brought up the pouch containing the copper coins. He felt that as long as his sister liked it, it was not impossible to buy it. His sister was still young and was still growing. How could she not eat her fill? Look at the aunt, who had been raised so well by Old Madam Ning, but his sister was so thin that she looked like she would fall with a gust of wind.

Then, they heard their sister ask without hesitation, "Boss, how much is the meat?"

The meat stall owner had yet to welcome his busiest moment. When he saw that it was a young lady who did not look like she could buy meat, he replied kindly, "The lean meat is twenty copper coins a catty, the fat is twenty-five, and the pork lard is thirty-five. Which one do you want?"

Xiaoxiao felt reasonable and said honestly, "The price is fair, but it's a pity that I can't afford it." She then pointed at internal organs that the boss had pulled aside. "Boss, how much are these?"

The owner of the meat stall also knew that poor people could not afford meat. Sometimes, they only could buy some internal organs to satisfy their cravings. Looking at the three siblings' outfits, he put down the knife. "Those five copper coins per catty."

Xiaoxiao was surprised and pointed at the bones shaved clean and gathered to the side. "What about these?"

The boss couldn't understand. "There's no meat left. If you want to buy it, you can take them all with five copper coins." It would save him the trouble of moving away and finding a place to throw it.

Xiaoxiao immediately took out her money and stuffed it over as if she was afraid that the stall owner would go back on his word. "Then I want these bones and two catties of internal organs. This is fifteen copper coins!"

Did she buy it? The boss was confused. "Where are your parents? Don't say that I cheated you after buying it."

Ning Dalang, who was about to persuade his sister, coughed lightly. "Don't worry, Boss. My sister bought it. Naturally, we acknowledged it."

However, after taking the things and leaving, he could not help but say to his sister, "Xiaoxiao, the internal organs don't taste good. It's fishy and smelly. Let's throw it away and buy meat again, okay?"

Ning Erlang also remembered that his sister had given her meat buns to them while he ate the thick buns bought by Rong Yan, so his heart ached. "That's right, that's right. Isn't it just meat? I'll go to the mountain and dig a few jars of bamboo shoots. We can eat a lot of meat at that time."

Xiaoxiao did not remind him that the bamboo shoots were about to exceed the season. She only waved her hand and said, "You guys don't understand."

Braised pig intestines stir-fried with pig intestines, dried pig intestines boiled with pig intestines… Huh, have you heard of them? Just wait to eat!

Her overflowing interest puzzled her brothers. However, they thought that their sister was always so sensible. It was rare for her to be impulsive. It was just the internal organs. It was not a big deal. Just Old Madam Ning alone had wasted them countless ten copper coins.

As she thought about the recipe, Xiaoxiao's footsteps became especially fast. She ran to the grain store and weighed two catties of flour. Today, their income decreased by 40 copper coins. Then, she went to buy a jar worth 20 copper coins. Ning Erlang hugged the basket containing the money tightly and refused to let her touch it no matter what.

Xiaoxiao started to brainwash her brother again. "Second Brother, look. We only brought ten copper coins when we came out. We had an extra three hundred and ninety copper coins when we went home. There are also food and other necessities. Didn't we make a profit?"

Ning Erlang covered his ears and shouted, "Brother, we've been out for an entire day and haven't eaten anything. Can you bear to let your sister go home hungry?"
