    During the clearance sale of Yu Jiaojiao's clothes, Meng Changjin was acutely aware that someone was staring at her with malice.

    Meng Changjin can understand what is going on even if he thinks about it casually.

    After walking around a few times and no longer feeling stared at, Meng Changjin entered a ready-to-wear store.

    The moment Meng Changjin walked into the clothing store, he received a lot of attention.

    Those eyes glanced at her from head to toe, and their eyes gradually brought contempt and disgust.

    After all, Meng Changjin's clothes are so ragged that she can beg for a meal with a broken bowl, so she was not surprised or cared at all when she received such a look.

    Originally, I thought that the store owner would ignore her because she was too tattered, but it didn't.

    Meng Changjin thought about it for a while and thought that it was the same. Who would push money out?

    Meng Changjin walked around the store and chose two sets of azure blue clothes that were relatively simple in style and low-key in color, and also bought a piece of cotton cloth, ready to make some close-fitting clothes.

    Before Meng Changjin became a loose cultivator, she also studied female red, embroidery or something was too difficult for her, but she could still sew normal clothes without being too complicated.

    Just these two clothes, plus a piece of cotton, cost half of the total income of the pile of clothes sold in Jiaojiao.

    Meng Changjin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the new one is really much different from the old one.

    Taking the room in the shopkeeper's shop to change his clothes, Meng Changjin sorted out the remaining money and the small package wrapped in Yu Jiaojiao's hairpins and bracelets before walking out of the ready-to-wear store.

    As for her tattered and patched clothes, she just threw them away.

    Anyway, won't wear it again, keep it for the New Year?

    After leaving the ready-to-wear store, Meng Changjin went to the pawnshop and directly exchanged those hairpins and bracelets of Yu Jiaojiao for money.

    Because it is a dead end, the price is still acceptable, and all of them are exchanged for fifteen taels of silver.

    Holding the heavy fifteen taels of silver, Meng Changjin was in a complicated mood.

    For that kind of good paddy field, four taels of silver can buy one mu, and fifteen taels of silver is enough to buy almost four acres of land.

    This is still the price she sold to the pawnshop. When she bought these, the price must have been more than that. It should be about the same as doubling the price, which is a full thirty taels of silver!

    Even if you don't buy land, thirty taels of silver is enough for a year and a half of ordinary people's homes.

    But Yujia only bought hairpins and bracelets for Yu Jiaojiao.

    It would be fine if the Yu family was that kind of big family, but the Yu family is just an ordinary person, and they lived a decent life. It seems that in order to enjoy the blessings of Yu Jiaojiao’s future prosperity, the Yu family really regarded Yu Jiaojiao as a treasure. .

    After leaving the pawnshop, Meng Changjin bought some yellow paper and cinnabar, as well as brushes, and prepared to draw some talisman paper in case of emergency.

    Yellow paper, cinnabar and brushes didn't cost much.

    Everything that should be sold was sold, and everything that should be bought was bought. Meng Changjin touched his hungry stomach and walked into a noodle restaurant.

    After ordering a large bowl of noodles, Meng Changjin peeled the two unfinished boiled eggs and threw them in before eating.

    Because of Meng Changjin and the operation of putting eggs, the boss and a new diner almost quarreled.

    The reason is that the diner found that there was no egg in his bowl, so he suspected that the boss did not put it for him.

    The boss simply doubted life. There were no eggs in his family.

    After some wrangling, the frequent diners took turns to testify before convincing the diners that there were no eggs in the original noodles.

    When the diner pointed to Meng Changjin's bowl and asked her why she had eggs, Meng Changjin said calmly, "I put it myself, why, do I need your permission to eat an egg?"

    The others in the noodle shop burst into laughter, and the noodle shop was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

    The diner blushed with laughter, and finally hurriedly ate the noodles in the bowl, paid the money, and left in despair.

    After Meng Changjin finished eating the noodles, he even drank the soup.

    After paying the money, Meng Changjin packed his belongings and prepared to return to Lihua Village.

    When he reached the intersection between Qingyuan County and Lihua Village, Meng Changjin was stopped.

    Meng Changjin hurriedly rummaged through the client's memory, and finally found the corresponding person.

    This man's surname is Liu, and he is one of the few cattle-raisers in Lihua Village. When farming is busy, his cattle are rented to others to plough the fields. When farming is slack, he will put on a truck and travel between Lihua Village and Qingyuan County to earn a little money.

    "Uncle Liu." Meng Changjin called out the client's name in memory.

    "Are you going back?" Uncle Liu sat on the ox cart and smoked cigarettes. Although it was a question, his tone was affirmative.

    "Everything that needs to be done has been done." Meng Changjin said with a smile.

    Seeing Meng Changjin smiling, Uncle Liu was obviously stunned.

    In his memory, this little girl from the Yu family had always lowered her head and looked cowardly.

    Today is different.

    He changed into new clothes, and his face looked much better.

    Uncle Liu also couldn't understand the crux of the problem, but he heard the person who rode his ox cart today saying that there was a lot of noise at home in the middle of the night yesterday. Could it be because of the noise last night?

    In fact, most of the villagers in Lihua Village are simple and unpretentious, and they don't like the style of the Yu family.

    But this is someone's family business, and it's not easy for them to intervene. Now that the little girl in the Yu family is standing up by herself, it's not bad.

    "If you have anything, you can go to Li Zheng, Li Zheng is an upright person." After thinking about it, Uncle Liu said.

    It's not easy for them to intervene in the affairs of the Yu family, but if it gets to Lizheng, at least Lizheng will intervene for a while.

    It's just that this girl from the Yu family has always had the temperament to swallow her voice. If she doesn't stand up by herself, no matter how much other people help her, it won't work.

    Uncle Liu thought so, and then he started smoking the dry cigarette again.

    "I see, thank you Uncle Liu." Meng Changjin nodded.

    The client's memory of the villagers of Lihua Village is not very deep, and there is no sense of existence, because she has relatively little contact with her.

    The most profound thing is probably the expressions of indifference, hideousness, or contempt of those villagers when they were sunk into the pond.

    The villagers of Lihua Village are not impersonal, but everyone cares about themselves more.

    The Yu family pushed the client as a scapegoat, and the villagers demanded Shentang with high affection, because they felt that there was a shameless person in the village, and the person who cheated with others would affect the reputation of the village. Spot removal.

    Meng Changjin understands, but only understands.

    Without waiting for the ox cart, Meng Changjin and Uncle Liu thanked him and left first.
