Chapter 16

Wei Shiman looked at her daughter and asked again: "What's his name?"

Xiao Han said: "Li Heng."

"Li Heng?"

Wei Shiman frowned. She felt the name was a bit familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere recently, but she got stuck for a moment and couldn't remember exactly where it was.

After a while, she asked again: "Where is he from?"

Her mother's appearance made Xiao Han instantly associate it with the rumors about Li Heng and Chen Zi Jin. Knowing her mother's temperament, she was most precious about herself and was afraid she would break the casserole and ask to the end, so she lied and said casually: "Da Shui Tian."

Hearing this, Mother Xiao didn't ask again.

Instead, Xiao Han began to persuade her tactfully: "Mom, if his family's rice is okay, let's buy his."

Wei Shiman looked at her daughter suspiciously, "Didn't you say you weren't very familiar?"

Xiao Han said eagerly, "He is quite pitiful. I heard from Yingwen that his father suffers from spinal disease and cannot do heavy work.

Usually, his mother works in the fields to support the family, and there is no stable source of income. It's possible that selling rice is to raise tuition for the day after tomorrow."

Wei Shiman asked: "Isn't Yingwen from Shangwan Village? How does she know these things?"

The translucent eyes full of spiritual energy turned, and Xiao Han, without blushing or heart beating, gently put her two index fingers together and told her:

"Dear Mom, this is Shangwan Village, this is Big Water Field, separated by only one mountain, very close."

This was a fact, and Wei Shiman believed it a few points.

In the past, her daughter rarely asked for anything. Thinking that a good seedling from No. 1 High School couldn't afford to go to school, it was indeed quite pitiful. She immediately stopped her steps and returned to the old Li family's stall again.

Seeing this mother and daughter turn around and come back, Tian Run'e immediately gathered her spirits and brought out the best state to receive the other party.

Wei Shiman didn't respond to Tian Run'e's enthusiasm, but bent down to grab a handful of rice, spread it in her palm to check carefully, and then put it to her nose to smell it. Finally, she pointed to the four bags.

Asked: "How heavy is it all together?"

Tian Run'e replied: "Two loads of rice, 185 jin in total."

Wei Shiman asked again: "How much per jin?"

Tian Run'e subconsciously quoted the price: "One dime nine."

But just after quoting the price, Tian Run'e regretted it in her heart. It was almost noon, and the rice hadn't sold a single bit.

If she missed this most likely buyer because she quoted a high price, she would be annoyed to death.

Hearing this price, Wei Shiman didn't make a sound at first, and then checked the rice in the other three bags in the same way.

While waiting, this process seemed extremely long.

Just when Tian Run'e couldn't help but want to say something to facilitate this deal, Wei Shiman finally made a move.

Just seeing her put the rice back into the bag, straighten up, and pat the white rice dust on her hands, she said: "I want all these four bags of rice."

Tian Run'e was stunned. An unexpected surprise, these eight words gave her full surprise.

Originally, she thought it would be good to sell one bag of rice, but she didn't expect this trendy woman in front of her to be so straightforward. Not only did she not bargain, but she wanted all four bags. She had never encountered such a neat buyer.

And Li Heng was happy, but he didn't have his mother's joy. He looked at his old classmate suspiciously.

Contacting his gaze, Xiao Han turned her head away calmly and ignored him.

Seeing this, Li Heng didn't feel anything. This girl has this temperament. If she is happy, she will pay attention to you; if she is not interested, you are air in her eyes.

Tian Run'e is also a conscientious person. While happy, she said to Wei Shiman: "Where do you live? It's inconvenient on this rainy day. Why don't we send the rice to your house."

That's great, Wei Shiman immediately reported the address.

Hearing that the other party lived in the town government, Tian Run'e looked at the mother and daughter a few more times, then bent down to carry the rice and instructed her son to follow.

The town government is opposite the town center, a distance from the agricultural machinery station. In the middle, you have to go up a gentle slope first, then go downhill, about 600 meters in total.

"Thank you both for your hard work, please put the rice in this room for me."

On the second floor, unlocking the door and entering, weighing it, Wei Shiman led the way in front.

Leading the mother and son to the innermost storage room.

After the rice was settled, Wei Shiman began to settle the account, and did not forget to instruct her daughter to pour two cups of warm water for Tian Run'e and Li Heng.

"Four bags of rice total 185 jin, one dime nine per jin, that's 35 yuan and 1.5 dimes, right?"

Wei Shiman picked up an abacus from the coffee table and quickly pulled it a few times to get the total.

Tian Run'e calculated it in her heart, and the answer was the same, but to be on the safe side, she looked at her son again.

On the way, Li Heng had already calculated it several times, so he nodded immediately.

Getting her son's affirmative answer, Tian Run'e smiled and said to Wei Shiman: "Let you see a joke, it's this number."

After both sides confirmed it was correct, Wei Shiman counted three 10-yuan notes and five 1-yuan notes from her wallet, and then took out two coins, one one-dime and one five-cent.

"You count it."

"No need, the number is correct."

Just after settling the money, Xiao Han brought two cups of tea, one handed to Tian Run'e, and one reached out to Li Heng.

She reminded carefully: "Auntie, this tea is a little hot, drink it slowly."

"Eh, thank you girl."

Tian Run'e took the tea, said thank you politely, but turned and put it on the coffee table inadvertently, and didn't drink it.

Li Heng did the same.

Because of the rain, the mother and son were dirty, and they were out of tune with the spotless environment of the Xiao family. If they drank these two cups of tea, they would have to use boiling water to disinfect the cups later.

If they met someone with cleanliness, these two cups might be thrown away.

Putting oneself in another's shoes, Tian Run'e, who likes cleanliness, thought of others, so it was better not to drink, so as not to cause trouble for others.

The money was in her pocket, and after a simple greeting, the mother and son proposed to leave.

Wei Shiman sent them to the door. When she was about to close the door, she suddenly had a whim and asked Tian Run'e:

"Big sister, where are you from? This rice looks good. When you finish eating, I'll come to you to buy it next time."

Actually, the two were about the same age, but Wei Shiman, who worked in a government unit, was well-maintained and looked ten years younger than Tian Run'e, so this "big sister" was called naturally.

People who sell rice love to hear others praise their rice, so Tian Run'e said happily: "From Shangwan Village.

If you have any needs, you can go to the market next to the agricultural machinery station to find me. As long as there is nothing at home, I am mostly there on market days."

"Good, remembered, walk slowly."

Watching Li Heng and his mother disappear at the entrance of the corridor, Wei Shiman closed the door, then came to the sofa, sat down, and looked at her daughter with a meaningful look.
