The Villain’s Host is a Boss

   Chapter 823 Back to the Emperor's Youth 4

  The eldest daughter-in-law is the least willing to get close to their family members, and it is too late to avoid her, but now, she has taken the initiative to accompany her.

  It's a good thing to change, as long as the eldest daughter-in-law is willing to change, that's even better, she can totally not mind the things that the eldest daughter-in-law did before.

   I was afraid that she was not sincerely repenting, but had other thoughts, and Li was very sad.

   The firewood on the ground was soon finished. Yun Xi washed her hands, looked at Li and said, "Mother, let's go."

   "Hey, good."

  Li touched her pocket, and suddenly she couldn't control her panic. She only had the wages that she just paid today, and the total was less than one hundred cents.

   If Xi Niang sees something later and she doesn't have enough money, what should I do?

   Forget it, let’s go to town and talk about it.

   Mr. Li bit the bullet and went out with Yun Xi. The village was quite far from the town, and it took more than half an hour to walk there.

   It's noon now, so stay in town for a while, and you may have to take the night road at night.

   Mrs. Li was both worried about not having enough money, but also worried that the two women would not be safe if they came back too late at night.

   But she never said anything. This is the first time the eldest daughter-in-law has gone out with her since she got married. No matter how difficult it is, she cannot refuse.

   Yunxi didn't know her worries, so naturally she didn't comfort her.

When    walked into the town, it was already afternoon, and it was not a market today. Therefore, there were only a dozen or so pedestrians in the quaint town, which was not very lively.

   Yunxi went straight to the store that sold food, and Mrs. Li knew that she wanted to buy food.

   "Xi Niang, the coarse grains at home are enough for two days, do you need to buy more than two days?"

  The clothes shop in the town has to make a batch of ready-made clothes and recruit a batch of people. She will go to work tomorrow, and she will work faster. After three or four days, she will probably earn more than 100 yuan.

   Mrs. Li thought of buying food again. She actually wanted to keep the copper plate in her hand.

   Ji Jiuye's medicine is almost gone, and the family can't have any money left.

   "Mom, sooner or later you will have to buy something. I will buy some good ones today to improve the food for everyone."

   As soon as Yun Xi finished speaking, Li's face changed instantly.

  This, I still have to buy it, so she is a little bit of copper...

   Yun Xi was keenly aware of the change in Li's face, and suddenly understood her embarrassment.

   She smiled lightly and said, "Mother, I want to eat it myself, so I will pay for it."

   "Ah," Li shi looked up at her and said embarrassedly, "Xi Niang, mother is not..."

   She was so ashamed that she couldn't speak anymore, her face was flushed, her daughter-in-law wanted to eat something good, and she had to pay for it herself. Their old Ji family was really not kind.

   Mr. Li gritted his teeth, took out all the dozens of copper plates left, and gave them to Yun Xi.

   "Xi Niang, that's all my mother has. I'll give it all to you. Don't think too much. I'll go out to work tomorrow, and I've already received a job..."

   Yunxi looked at the copper plate in her hand, her face stunned, of course she was not too little, she just didn't expect that the Ji family was already so poor.

   She smiled and stuffed the copper plate to Mrs. Li, "Mother, I have money, you can take this money. You can't leave a copper plate when you go out to work."

  It seems that it is time to hurry up and make money.

   Mr. Li refused, but he refused to accept it, saying that he went out to work, not to spend money, so he didn’t need to keep money on his body.

   Seeing that others were looking at it frequently, Yun Xi had to take it back for the time being, or wait until she got home.

Entering the shop, Yun Xi bought ten kilograms of polished rice, ten kilograms of white flour, five kilograms of oil, a packet of sugar, and some seasonings. When checking out, she saw the packaged pastries, and she suddenly thought of the two at home. Boy, just grab a bag.

   So many things cost almost two taels of silver in total. Yun Xi paid the money happily, but Li Shi's flesh was extremely painful.

   These things that Yunxi bought, their family hadn't seen since Father Ji died.

   Even when Father Ji was around, he never bought so many.

Yun Xi can handle a few kilograms of things by herself, but these things are scattered and difficult to handle. In addition, she still wants to buy things, and she is worried that it will be too dark when she goes back, and Li's will Uneasy in my heart, I spent fifteen cents to rent a bullock cart.

   Seeing the ox cart, Mrs. Li couldn't help but feel a pain in her flesh, but it was Yun Xi who paid, so she couldn't say anything.

After    put the things on the ox cart, Yun Xi directly asked the driver to take her to the roadside meat stall.

  It was getting late, and the meat was actually not as fresh as in the morning, but Yun Xi didn't care about this. The Ji family's people were either rice soup or wild vegetable soup. It's good to eat meat. Who cares if it's fresh or not.

   She bought five catties of lean meat and five catties of pork belly, and asked the boss if he had any big bones. Ji Jiuye injured his leg, so drinking some bone broth is very beneficial.

  In this day and age, commoners don’t like flesh and blood. When buying meat, even if there is a bit of bone in the meat, they can’t wait to get it clean. The bones can’t be sold. Therefore, the most important thing for stall owners here are bones.

   Yunxi directly bought all the bones from the boss's stall, plus the meat, it cost a total of more than 300 yuan.

When Li saw her buying meat, that's all, she also bought so many bones. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but whisper in her ear, "Xi Niang, there is no meat in the bones, no one usually asks for this. of."

   The implication is that no one else will buy it, so why are you buying this?

   Yun Xi smiled and said, "Mother, I know, bones are cheap, I bought so many and the boss only charged ten cents."

   Mr. Li sighed, the relationship is cheap, but cheap is not good, there is no meat, and if you buy it back, you can only feed it to the dog.

   That’s all, it’s inevitable that a young man won’t be able to live his life, and we’ll find out later.

   After returning home, Yun Xi paid the driver, and the driver drove the ox cart away. Yaya and Erbao heard the movement and ran out one after another. When they saw the things all over the ground, their eyes widened in surprise.

   Then, after seeing Yunxi, the two brothers and sisters shrank obviously, and fear flashed across their beautiful eyes.

   Such an old child does not understand disgust, but instinctively rejects and fears. Seeing the reaction of the two children, Li froze for a while, obviously thinking of the previous things.

   The most calm is Yun Xi, she smiled, picked up the package of pastries, walked to the two children, reached out and touched their heads.

   "Yaya and Erbao are hungry, this is what my sister-in-law bought for you, take it to eat."

   Neither of the two children stretched out their hands first, but looked at Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li thought she bought it for herself, but she obviously didn't expect that she would give them to the two children.

   After thinking about it, he said softly, "Since it's your sister-in-law and you, then take it."

   Mrs. Li said, and the sweet smell of the pastry wafted through the nose, the two children couldn't help swallowing saliva, Erbao cautiously reached out to take it, and whispered, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
