girl, she opened her mouth to see money

Chapter 185 Ask

Before the end of the year, the three brothers Tao Weicheng accompanied Tao Weizi to the provincial capital, and the family seemed much quieter.

During the New Year, Tao Zuoran opened the shop door, Tao Weike rushed in, Tao Qingbi followed behind him, but Tao Zuoran stood in the shop for a while.

Tao Qingbi lit the fire, Tao Weike wiped the goods in the store, and Tao Zuoran cleaned the backyard after entering the store.

After the water in the kettle boiled, Tao Qingbi scalded the water cup, Tao Zuoran took a few sips of water from the cup, and then said to Tao Weike, "Ke'er, if you are not used to guarding the shop, your second aunt can come and guard the shop tomorrow. "

Tao Weike smiled quickly and said, "Second Uncle, you and Second Aunt, please give me this chance. I want to sharpen my temper while guarding the shop."

Tao Zuoran didn't make much persuasion, even though it was the New Year's day, there was no shortage of work at home, and he could still do some things when he went back.

After Tao Zuoran left, Tao Weike smiled at Tao Qingbi: "Niuniu, are you happy that I'm here to guard the shop with you?"

"Happy." Tao Qingbi looked at him suspiciously: "After the second brother comes back, will you exchange with the second brother?"

"No, my grandfather and my father said, if you want me to accompany you to guard the shop for half a year to a year, maybe my skills can improve."

Tao Qingbi looked at him: "Fourth brother, there are no more barrels in the shop, you can make some barrels these days, okay?"

"Okay, I haven't made buckets for some days. I'll go to the backyard to see if there is any wood for buckets."

Tao Weike walked to the backyard, Tao Qingbi followed behind him, opened the small carpentry workshop, pointed to the warehouse door to let Tao Weike know, and then told him the room where he rested at noon.

After Tao Weike entered the small carpentry room, Tao Qingbi stood outside the carpentry room a little uneasy: "Fourth brother, it's cold, you can go to work by the fire."

"It's inconvenient to sit around the fire. I'll make preparations in the carpentry room first. You don't have to worry about me. Go and enjoy the fire."

Tao Qingbi stopped persuading him. Since Tao Weike grew up, he didn't spend much time at home. He likes to make friends. It's not that he treats Tao Qingbi badly, but most of his thoughts are spent on friends outside. Their brothers and sisters are at home. It is rare to say a few words in it.

Tao Qingbi told Tao Weike that when it was cold, she would close the middle door when she was in the front shop.

Tao Weike had already bowed his head to work, and when Tao Qingbi was about to close the middle door, he suddenly said, "Niu Niu, wait a minute, if someone comes to the store to look for me, don't bother. I have already told them not to come to the store to look for me. I play."

"Okay, I'll make a note." Tao Qingbi slowly closed the middle door.

On the first day of opening, Tao Qingbi went to pay New Year's greetings to her neighbors' shops, and crossed the street to pay New Year's greetings to the older storekeepers. When she returned to the shop, she was holding a bunch of things in her hands.

A child ran over at this time: "Sister Niuniu, happy new year, business is booming."

Tao Qingbi directly took something and stuffed it into his hand, and said with a smile: "Happy New Year, Xiaomu, and grow up healthily in the new year."

After Xiaomu left, several children came over to pay New Year's greetings. Tao Qingbi distributed the presents received from outside one by one.

Tao Weike pushed open the middle door and entered the shop. Seeing that Tao Qingbi was about to sit down, he smiled happily and said, "Niuniu, you don't have to get up to greet me. We'll still be together for several months. You're too polite, no good."

Tao Qingbi could only smile at him, she was really embarrassed to tell him that it was a beautiful misunderstanding, she was just about to sit down, when she heard the sound of the middle door opening, she paused for a moment.

Tao Qingbi sat down firmly: "Fourth brother, I listen to you, and I won't be too polite with you in the future. Do you want a drink of water? The cup is washed, and you can drink it yourself."

Tao Weike sat down with a cup in his hand, and said to Tao Qingbi: "At noon, I will go back to eat and bring you lunch. I saw that there is not much wood in the carpentry room. In the afternoon, can we go back earlier? ?”

"Yes, I just went out to ask. During the Chinese New Year, everyone will close the store half an hour in advance. Fourth brother, if you have something to do, you can go back early in the afternoon. During the Chinese New Year, we are really just guarding the store."

Tao Weike thought about Tao Qingbi's words, nodded clearly and said, "We'll go back together in the afternoon, I'm not half an hour away."

Before the opening time in the afternoon, Tao Qingbi heard the sound of a shop closing outside, she went to the backyard and knocked on the door and called Tao Weike: "Fourth brother, we can prepare to close the shop."

Tao Weike patted the sawdust on his body, and then opened the door: "Okay, I'll tidy things up."

Tao Qingbi was about to seal up the fire, but she didn't want to stop for a while, she sealed the wet mud on the furnace mouth.

Tao Weike came forward, stretched out his hand to take over the work in her hand, knelt down and smeared the mud tightly.

He got up and said to Tao Qingbi: "Smear the mud thicker so that the wind won't blow into the hearth. There may still be some sparks when you come tomorrow morning."

On their way home, the brothers and sisters met many people they knew. They looked at Tao Weike curiously, and said with a smile, "Niu Niu, your fourth brother is old enough to see each other, right?"

Tao Qingbi looked at them in astonishment, then said with a smile, "You can ask my fourth brother directly."

She simply retreated behind Tao Weike, and they all smiled and said to Tao Weike, "Fourth brother of the Tao family, are you here to guard the shop with your sister now?"

"Fourth brother of the Tao family, the job of guarding the store is not easy. It's boring. No one talks to you yet. Can you keep calm?"

Tao Qingbi looked at the questioner curiously: "When my eldest brother, second brother and third brother accompanied me to guard the shop, did you ask them the same way?"

Everyone glanced at Tao Qingbi, and the young one among them smiled and said, "Tao girl, you are too young. You don't know that when I came to guard the shop, they cared about me from head to toe.

People like your fourth brother are attracted by them, that's why they care so much.Let's go, you just don't mind meddling, your fourth brother is much thicker than you. "

Tao Weike had no choice but to say thick-skinned at this moment: "Uncles and brothers, what kind of person am I? What I say is useless. Everyone will get along well in the future. You can taste my way of doing things. I have done a good job. If it is not in place, please correct me more.”

After Tao Weike finished speaking, he directly lifted the clothes on Tao Qingbi's shoulders with two fingers, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, Niuniu, we should go home soon."

After the brothers waved to everyone, they quickly walked towards the fork in the road. When they were about to turn, Tao Qingbi looked back and saw that there was no one coming from behind.

She slowed down and took a breath: "fourth brother, no one is coming, please go slower."
