Nongmen shrew: Farming with cubs is spoiled by rough men

Chapter 124 Someone Wants to Fish in Troubled Waters

Qin Zhiyi stood on the road by the door and watched for a long time, and did not enter the house until the carriage could no longer be seen.

A lot of bamboo shoots have been piled up in the yard. When Aunt Guo saw her looking at them, she hurriedly said, "I'm afraid that the bamboo shoots collected in the past few days will get old, so I peeled them all. I did as you said, and some of them were put away." Blanch them in water and hang them outside to dry. It rained the day before yesterday, so I harvested them early, and took them out to dry today.”

"By the way, there are sour bamboo shoots soaked in the house. As for the stuffed bamboo shoots that the little lady mentioned, I don't know how to do them, so I didn't make them. I just made those bamboo shoots into dried bamboo shoots and sour bamboo shoots. "

Sure enough, Mrs. Guo was reliable, so she said: "Don't worry about the stuffed bamboo shoots, don't you still keep the fresh ones? Besides, it's not too late to make fresh ones."

Aunt Guo began to settle accounts with her: "This time, we collected a total of thousands of catties of bamboo shoots with shells, and four hundred catties of bamboo shoots without shells. We spent a total of two to six hundred Wen."

While the two were talking, they saw Mrs. Qin pulling a cart full of shelled bamboo shoots, followed by Qin Xiaomei pushing the cart. Because of the effort, both of them were sweating.

Mrs. Qin grunted and pulled the cart over, looked up and saw Qin Zhiyi.

The two looked at each other, a little embarrassed.

Mrs. Qin was the first to speak: "It's what you said that the big guys can go up the mountain to break off the bamboo shoots, and after breaking off the bamboo shoots, they can sell them with you."

"That's what I said."

She said lightly, and glanced at the bamboo shoots on the cart, and she could tell that it took a long time to get them. The cart weighed at least a hundred catties.

"Since you said so, then I'll let you sell it. You have to pay as much as you should. Don't fool people just because of some personal grievances."

Aunt Guo frowned after hearing this: "I said, why are you so narrow-minded? My little lady has already said that she said so, and when you sold the bamboo shoots earlier, I also paid for it. "

Mrs. Qin was speechless, so she hummed, "That's all right, hurry up and collect these bamboo shoots. It took the two of us a long time to break them off."

She knew that it rained two days ago, and the bamboo shoots on the mountain sprouted faster, and the ones piled up in the yard should all be harvested yesterday.

But everyone in the village went to the mountain to break off the bamboo shoots, so it was hard to avoid getting some. It was a miracle that Mrs. Qin could still get so many today.

She didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so she told Aunt Guo: "Madam, go and weigh all those paper bamboo shoots, and give as much as you want. It's the old rule. When you buy bamboo shoots, you must check carefully. Old, worm-infested Yes, none of it."

Aunt Guo responded and went to get the rope.

The bamboo shoots on the car were all tied up with straw ropes and placed on top of each other. Aunt Guo took one bundle from above and inspected it carefully, and then took another bundle for inspection.

The bottom shell of each rope must be peeled off to see if it can be pinched. The ones that cannot be pinched are old bamboo shoots, and this kind of bamboo shoots cannot be eaten.

If it can be pinched, then the bamboo shoots can be eaten.

There was nothing wrong with the first bundle, but when checking the second bundle, Aunt Guo's movements were obviously slow.

Sensing something was wrong, she untied the tied straw ropes and checked them one by one.

Just pinch off the old parts. Some bamboos are thin, long and old.

When Mrs. Qin saw it, she immediately felt distressed, and immediately stood up and said, "No, why did you pinch me? How can there be so many old people?"

Aunt Guo didn't give her a good face, and said coldly: "You can see for yourself if you are old, and try for yourself if you can pinch it."

When Mrs. Qin saw that Aunt Guo asked her to pinch, she pinched hard with her nails, but it only made a mark.

Such bamboo shoots are indeed inedible, no matter how they are boiled or eaten, they cannot be chewed.

Seeing that the aunt was checking one by one again, she felt distressed and couldn't stop her, so she could only continue to watch with a straight face.

After checking such a car, more than [-]% of it was inedible. It was originally more than [-] catties, but it was only more than [-] catties.

Mrs. Qin was full of grievances. Seeing that several bamboo shoot sellers were rushing here, she had an idea, and she sat down on the ground and howled.

"You said you would accept whoever broke the bamboo shoots, but you are obviously bullying my orphans and widows. If I accept all the bamboo shoots I sell, you will be picky and picky if you sell them today. You have to buy good bamboo shoots. Isn’t it bullying if you break the stick and say you can’t eat it?”

After finishing speaking, she said to the few people who were rushing over behind her: "I don't think you should sell it anymore, just look at how much she threw away on my land, rather than letting her ruin it like this, you might as well take it back and eat it yourself. "

"She doesn't want to help us make money and start a business. She clearly wants to cheat people. If you can't do this business, don't do it!"

Qin Zhiyi looked at Mrs. Qin crying quietly. Everyone in the village knew who she was.

Of course, Aunt Guo is not easy to mess with, she will do it when it is time for her to do it, but now, some people teach her.

Sure enough, Mrs. Guo said to her at this time: "little lady, don't worry, let you order me to collect bamboo shoots, and the old slave will do it for you. The old farmer has been wandering outside for many years and has seen all kinds of people. People, it's useless for a shrew like this to reason with her, just pick it up and beat her up."

When Mrs. Qin heard this, she was immediately stunned.

But soon she continued to cry loudly, she couldn't believe that an old woman really dared to beat her.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Guo didn't give her much time to think, she just rolled up her sleeves, grabbed her skirt with one hand, and slapped her two mouths.

The onlookers heard two loud slaps, and they were also stunned for a moment.

Mrs. Qin was also stunned by the beating. As for Qin Xiaomei, who had never seen such a posture before, she shrank away in fright and dared not say a word.

After Mrs. Guo finished beating, she picked up the bamboo shoots thrown on the ground and showed them to the onlookers.

"Look, these are the bamboo shoots she broke. When I collected the bamboo shoots, my little lady also said that I don't want the old ones, and I don't want the ones with insects. The price is the same with the shells, and the price without the shells. Now she carries so many bamboo shoots. The old one, my wife doesn't care about her, I just break off the old one, and then tell her, she is fine, come to my wife's door and throw a splash."

Everyone stretched their heads to look. When Mrs. Guo handed the bamboo shoots in front of them, someone reached out to pinch them and exclaimed: "If this is left to dry for another two days, it will become a bamboo pole!"

The rest also accused one after another.

"Mrs. Qin, it's your fault. People know that they want to give us a chance to make money. Fortunately, you have cheated your own family."

"That's right, when it comes to breaking bamboo shoots, you're the one who snatches them quickly, and you've done a lot of deceiving things. Zhiyi, I don't think you'll ever take things from her house anymore. Be careful that someone will take your good intentions as a donkey's liver and lungs." !"
