Chapter 112

Xi'er left a small plate for Granny Luo and Nanny Zhou, and gave the rest to the shopkeeper.

Carrying the basket, he actually gave one to each person in the teahouse, and two to the storyteller. In the end, he let him pick up all the baskets, and then hid behind the counter to finish them all by himself.

This cranberry is so delicious. It is big, bright red in color, and tastes milky and sweet. People can't get enough of it after eating it.

"Miss Xi'er, your berries are quite expensive, aren't they?"

"In a few days, it will cost one tael of silver to a catty, and it will become more expensive as the years go by,"

"It's worth the money, it's really delicious, even better than the ones I bought in early summer."

"That's because there is no fruit in this season, so you feel delicious, and if there are too many, it will not taste good"

"No, no, your family's produce is good, it's not a lie, it's the truth"

"Thank you for the compliments, everyone,"

After the storyteller finished eating the berries, he slapped the gavel, "It's getting late, it's late in the afternoon, come and listen again."

"Sir, I think you lost your mind about storytelling after eating berries."

"Ha ha"

The storyteller didn't care what they said, but hurriedly walked up to Xi'er and gave Xi'er a salute.

"Girl, my child is sick and has a fever, and he has been feeling unwell. The berries you just ate are very good. Can you sell me some, the child has not had an appetite these days."

"It's okay"

"The doctor said it was too cold, the child was frozen, and he would be fine after taking a few medicines,"

"Alright then, I'll go to the garden and pick some red ones for you, just wait"

Xi'er ran out like the wind, and ran back like the wind. There were about three catties of red berries in the small basket, and she handed the basket to the storyteller.

"Take it, I don't need your money, just tell everyone a good story here in the future"

"Hey, this is too expensive, it's not appropriate not to give money."

"The child's health is important. You are an outsider, and you are not familiar with the place where you live. If you have difficulties, just tell everyone that the people in the town are warm-hearted."

"Thank you girl, you are such a nice person"

"The people in our town are good people"

Xi'er turned her head to look at those people in the teahouse who hadn't left. They were encouraged by Xi'er's words and echoed repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, we never bully outsiders. We live in the same town and are friends. You can talk to us if you have anything to do in the future."

The storyteller was so moved that he shed tears. He carried the basket of red berries, covered them with his coat, and hurried home through the snow.

Her mental strength followed him all the time, the storyteller entered the house, and hurried into the room. Inside the room was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl lying on the kang, with a woman guarding her beside her.

Mr. Storyteller took off his robe, revealing a small basket of red berries. When the little girl on the kang turned her head to see it, her eyes lit up immediately.

She stretched out her hand, "Dad, I want to eat"

The storyteller picked the biggest one and put it in her hand, "Eat it, it's given to you by Miss Xi'er in the south of the town. After you recover from your illness, you have to thank her. This fruit is very expensive. , one tael of silver per catty."

"Father, have you eaten yet?"

"ate"

"Mother eats too"

Xi'er quietly withdrew her mental strength, she hooked her lips, and Zhou Nanny helped Old Madam Luo back home.

As soon as she entered the room, Mrs. Luo saw two large pots of peonies in full bloom, and immediately burst out laughing.

"Girl, this is your surprise for mother."

"Yeah, do you like it?"

"I like it so much, does your brother have one?"

“There is something for everyone in the family”

"Let's go, bridesmaids go to each house and see what's in their house?"

When Nanny Zhou saw the sweet-scented osmanthus in her room, she burst into tears. The name was that the three were servants of the Luo family, but in fact, Miss treated them like family members.

Miss doing things casually can make people want to cry.

There was a lot of snow, and it was endless when it got up. It was big and small, it stopped and it was tight, and it fell intermittently for five days.

The mayor led everyone to start clearing the snow as soon as the snow stopped.

Xi'er sent someone to deliver a letter to the farm, asking them to sweep from north to south, Xi'er led people to sweep from south to north, and the mayor led people to sweep south.

Everyone worked for a whole day, and Xi'er made buns for Baoyuan. Residents in the town ate buns for free, and unlimited egg soup, just to clear up the snow.

Everyone has never worked so hard like today, nor have they been so happy like today.

Who doesn't like sweeping snow and taking care of food.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the snow in the town was cleared, more than 20 miles south of the official road, and a hundred miles north of the official road, all of which exceeded the farm.

Some towns learned from Huaishu Town, and within a few days, the official road from the farm to Quzhou was unimpeded.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, the vegetables and fruits from Luo's vegetable garden finally came out of the sheds. As soon as the vendors got the letter, they all flocked to Luo's shop happily.

Box after box of vegetables was constantly being moved to their car, and as soon as the bill was settled, they hurriedly set off on the road.

The Ma family is still the same as before, four cars come at the same time, and only when they are full will they set off.

In the past few days, Shopkeeper Fang and the others got up earlier than chickens, and they were as tired as dogs. They fell into bed every day, and it would be dawn as soon as they closed their eyes.

The families who grew vegetables were in a hurry. Their vegetables were grown later, and they couldn't get out of the shed yet. One by one, they ran to the Luo's shop and watched those vegetables being loaded into the car, jealous No, no, no, I wish those dishes were my own.

Some people have sharp eyes. When they see the dishes of Luo’s family, they go home and look at the dishes of their own vegetable shed. If they don’t compare, they will see the difference.

The height, thickness, and color are not bad. At 01:30, they were afraid of losing money, so they invited Xi'er to see their land.

"Miss Xi'er, take a look, can our dishes be sold at a high price?"

"It's not bad. It's more cost-effective than growing winter wheat. Although it's not as good as my family's, you can lower the price and eat good food if you have money.

Families who are not close can choose this kind of food. I want to tell you one thing, your land has not been burned with plant ash, and there are many insect eyes on this dish.

When planting next time, be sure to burn the ground, so that the insect eggs in the mud will be burned to death, and it will not be easy to grow insects when planting again.”

"Hey, hey, be careful next time"

Xi'er gave them some pointers before returning home.

Mrs. Luo didn't go to listen to the book today. Her legs hurt a little, so she kept warm on the kang.

Xi'er walked into the room and sat down at the kang table. Nanny Zhou hurriedly poured her a cup of hot tea, and Xi'er held it in her hands to warm it up.

"Mother, don't go out before the year, stay warm at home"

"It's okay, it's because it's too cold, just wear more clothes when you go out."

"Don't hold on, the storyteller doesn't run away, you can listen to it anytime"

"Should you pick up Kang'er tomorrow?"

"Well, I have all the things for Mr. ready to load in the car"

"Well, let him deliver the gift from the school in the town by himself."

"Well, I've prepared that gift too. The cook has also prepared all the things for the winter and the new year's goods, and they're stockpiling them in the warehouse. Don't worry."

"Yeah, new clothes for the New Year, I and Zhou Mama have also prepared for you."

"Hey, you listen to books during the day and do so many things, you are really awesome"

Mrs. Luo gave her a coquettish look, "You have learned how to make fun of your mother."

"It's not a joke, it's my mother who is really good"

"Old man, I can't do it any more"

"In the future, just buy ready-made clothes, don't make them anymore, it hurts your eyes."

"The more you don't move, the less you want to move. People can't stay there all the time, or they will be useless."

"My mother is not old, look, your hair is black and shiny, whoever says you are old, I am in a hurry."

"You, you will make me happy. You have been tired for a day. Go to rest."

"Yes, mother"

After Xi'er left, Mrs. Luo looked at her back with loving eyes, and Nanny Zhou's eyes were the same.
