After Being Forced To Marry a Rough Man In the Mountains, She Was Spoiled By the Group

   Chapter 695 Food prices have risen

"It's like this," Xi Yao said baldly, "Because something happened, Lao Yu was probably afraid that the things in the house would be damaged, so he took all the food in the house. There is nothing to eat in this house. My man and my nephew are going to live here for a while, so I don't have anything to eat, I'm afraid it's inappropriate!"

"I'm not familiar with this place, and thinking that my sister-in-law is familiar with it, I want to ask you to help me find a few women in the village to buy something for me to eat. Because there are so many things, I won't let you run away in vain. Pay you wages..."

   When she said this, she was interrupted by Awangniang.

   "What are you talking about, we are not the kind of people who see money, so why do we need to pay for a favor!" Awangniang interrupted her displeasedly and said angrily.

Xi Yao hurriedly said, "Don't get me wrong, sister-in-law, if it's a little bit, I won't mention it, but I don't have anything here. I want all kinds of grains, as well as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea. Less, there must be more people, and it’s also cumbersome, it doesn’t pay wages, I’m too embarrassed to let you go!”

  A Wangniang heard what she said, and hesitated for a while: "The price of food in this city has gone up, I'm afraid it's not easy to buy it!"

   "The price of grain has risen?" Xi Yao was surprised: "Isn't the new grain coming soon?"

   "There's a war here, Nanliang country doesn't know what's going on, it keeps biting on it, everyone is worried, those vendors took the opportunity to raise the price of food, anyway, everything is expensive now!"

After understanding the meaning of this, Xi Yao didn't care about the money, but said decisively: "There's nothing to do if the price goes up, you can't go hungry, my man is going to the battlefield, there's definitely nothing delicious in the military camp, I I just wanted to make up for it for him!"

  This country woman, after getting married, all she thought of was her man and her children. What Xi Yao said struck Awangniang's heart, and felt that what she said was reasonable.

   "Then tell me how much you want to buy, I'll find someone to go with me!"

Seeing that people were willing to help, Xi Yao was overjoyed and said unequivocally, "I want white noodles..." She reported all kinds of edible things such as rice, millet, mung beans, and peanuts. They were all ten pounds, which shocked Awangniang.

   "If I could buy meat, I would need ten pounds of suet, a pig's foot, pork belly, and some chickens and ducklings. This yard is so big and empty, it would be a waste to keep it!"

   She made a request, which made Awangniang swallow her saliva involuntarily, and finally came back to her senses and said, "If there are chickens and ducks, there will be in the village. When the time comes, ask, there will be someone willing to sell it!"

"Okay, I won't buy this chick and duck today, I'll go get the silver," she said, she turned around and went into the house to get the silver, and came out with a small bag after a while, "here is two hundred taels Silver, it’s all broken silver, if you don’t have enough, come back and tell me!”

  I have never seen so much silver in my life, and Awangniang felt that her hands were shaking.

   She gritted her teeth and said, "I'm going to find Father Awang back!"

   "Father Awang went to find something for me, I'm afraid he won't come back in a while!" Xi Yao thought about it and said, "You can find a few more people with you, don't gather together, no one will notice!"

   It was someone who found out and thought that they were worried that they would run out of food during the war, so the family gritted their teeth and bought more.

   Awangniang took the silver with trembling hands.
