After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

Chapter 39 Complaint
The next day, Yingbao really "found" a lot of water chestnuts.

Water chestnuts are scattered all over the ditch, a few here, a few there, and a few more farther away.

She can always pull a few trees out of the ditch without Dani Erni noticing.

This confuses Dani and Erni.

Erni is also a little person with little knowledge, thinking that her eyes are not as bright as her little cousin, so she didn't realize that there are bachelor plants hidden in the ditch.

Dani, who was already ten years old, was very puzzled. She didn't understand why the little cousin could pull out a few bachelor plants full of water chestnuts as soon as the little cousin passed by where she had already searched and found nothing.

Alas, forget it, since I can't find anything, let my little cousin look for it alone, and I and Erni will follow behind to pick it up.

So, Dani and Erni followed behind to collect the bachelor plants "pulled out" by Yingbao, and gathered them together, making a huge pile.

After Yingbao took out [-]% of the water chestnuts in the cave, she stopped in time.

At this moment, Jiang Quan came, followed by two boys.

The two boys are the youngest sons of plasterers Li Dayong and Li Eryong. One is Li Dao, who is nine years old, and the other is Li He, who is eight years old.

Their father was building adobe for Jiang's family and Ni in Xiaonanshan, and the older brothers and sisters were also helping to mow the grass and dry the grass stems there, saving the mud for use.

They were young and couldn't help much, so they followed Jiang Quan to catch fish and shrimp, so as to improve food for their family.

"Hehe, so many water chestnuts."

Jiang Quan had already eaten this food yesterday, and it was delicious. Now that his sisters found a lot of them, he was so happy.

This thing is much more delicious than the wild cherry sour apricot on the mountain, and it tastes even better when cooked.

"Second brother, hurry up and pick them." Dani shouted, "There are so many of them, we can't finish them."

"Oh." Jiang Quan came over, put down his basket and net, and squatted down to pick water chestnuts.

Brothers Li Dao and Li He also came to help.

Ying Bao washed a few and handed them to the Li family brothers: "Let you have a taste first."

She had eaten food from these two children last year, and it happened to be a favor at this moment.

Li Dao and Li He were embarrassed to take it at first, but after seeing that Jiang Quan had also eaten it, he took it.

Jiang Quan said while eating: "Yingbao, how did you find so many water chestnuts? Why didn't I see them before?"

He often fished and fished for shrimps with his friends, but he didn't find such a good thing growing in the river ditch here.

Ying Bao said seriously: "You just want to catch fish and shrimp, of course you can't see it."

Jiang Quan touched his nose, and felt that what the little cousin said made sense.

I really didn't pay much attention to the aquatic plants in the ditch.

"Second brother, we will definitely not be able to finish eating these water chestnuts. Tomorrow is just a fair, why don't we sell them in the town?"

Yingbao thought about how to use the opportunity of selling water chestnuts to get some more, after all, there are still many in the cave, and piled up will take up space.

Jiang Quan's eyes lit up, and he nodded again and again: "Okay, I'll go to the collection tomorrow."

He is twelve years old this year and already understands the importance of money.

Not to mention that it will cost money to marry a wife and have children in the future, just say that now, you don't have money to buy something you like.

The one hundred cash in his hand was given by his third uncle last time, and he was not willing to spend any of it, so he hid it all in the hole in the wall.

Yingbao pursed her lips and made a request, "I'll go too."

She was going to the market to order a leather saddle for the deer, so that she could ride it for long distances.

"Ah?" Jiang Quan scratched his head, "What are you going to do?"

The little cousin is so small, and she can't walk fast, so it would be very troublesome to take her to Jishang.

And go to the market to sell things by yourself, if something goes wrong, it would be bad to lose the little cousin.

"I'm going." Yingbao saw the reluctance of the second cousin, and immediately said: "I can walk by myself, I don't need you to carry it."

Jiang Quan twitched his mouth and nodded helplessly: "Okay, okay, don't feel tired when the time comes."

"Yeah." Yingbao has been exercising all the time, and running for more than ten miles alone is not a problem.

Moreover, I eat a handful of Wudingzhi every day, and now my strength is stronger than Yuanbao, and I can't lose him in running.

The next morning, Yingbao got up early, fed the deer first, and sprinkled some wheat from Dongfu on the chickens.

After washing in a hurry, he grabbed a piece of omelette that Auntie had just made and ran to the front yard.

When I came to the uncle's house in the front yard, I looked around for my second cousin, but I couldn't find it.

After asking my aunt, I found out that my second cousin went to the market early in the morning carrying water chestnuts on his back.

Ying Bao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised her neck and began to howl, the howling was earth-shattering.

Of course it wasn't real crying, she was not too young in her past life and present life, and she didn't encounter any sad things, so she couldn't shed tears.

But she was too angry, angry that the boy would backtrack on what he promised, but he actually broke his promise.

Today, my aunt is not allowed to treat him well, I am not reconciled.

Sure enough, the aunt panicked, and quickly hugged and patted the little niece, "What's wrong with Bao'er?"

Ying Bao howled loudly, without delaying to accuse the second cousin, "Second elder brother said he was going to take Bao'er to the market, but he actually ran away alone...Wow...He doesn't mean anything, he lied to Bao'er..."

The auntie had no choice but to pat her to coax her: "Bao'er is good, when your second brother comes back, the auntie will definitely beat him hard. Don't cry now, the auntie just made horseshoe cake, steam it in a while and give it to Baoer."

Grandma Jiang Liushi was also startled by Yingbao's howling, and asked what was going on.

Knowing that the second grandson didn't take the little granddaughter to the fair, he stomped his feet and cursed: "Grandma will scold him when he comes back, you brat, dare to bully little sister."

Then he called the eldest grandson loudly: "Dacheng! Dacheng!"

Jiang Cheng was ventilating the bamboo shed, when he heard his grandma calling him, he responded, "What's the matter?"

"You have nothing to do today. Take your cousin to the market. Grandma will give you twenty coins. If you see something delicious in the market, buy something and try it."

Last time, the third son gave her the same amount of money at one time, and now Mrs. Jiang Liu has a lot of money, so she is happy to use the money to make her granddaughter happy.

"Oh!" Jiang Cheng promised, "Come right away."

Yingbao accepted it when she was ready, rubbed her eyes and stopped crying.

"What a good boy." Jiang Liushi took Yingbao and sat down at the small table in the yard, and took a clean cloth to wipe her face.

Jiang Cheng came out of the bamboo shed, and asked with a smile, "Ying Bao wants to go to the market?"

Ying Bao nodded like a pounding garlic, "I think."

"Brother Hall will take you there." Jiang Cheng said, "It happens that Da Ni also wants to go to the fair, so you can go together."

Ying Bao jumped up happily, hugged the big brother's calf, and complimented him: "The big brother is the best, better than the second brother."

Jiang Cheng smiled and picked up Yingbao, and put her into a basket and carried her on his back.

Dani ran out happily, not even burning the sugar stove, went back to the house, changed her clothes, and followed her elder brother.

The auntie took out a few hot water chestnut cakes from the steamer that had just been opened, wrapped them with washed reed leaves, stuffed them in the back basket Yingbao was sitting on, and instructed: "Eat it when it is cold, be careful not to burn it. "

Ying Bao nodded sharply: "Yes. Thank you, auntie."

He said obediently again: "Bao'er went to the market to bring delicious food for my aunt and grandma."

She had a lot of copper coins in her pocket, and there was a five-liang silver ingot in the cave.

Zhou patted Yingbao's head and said with a smile, "Okay."

Jiang Liushi took out twenty Wen from the house, handed it to the eldest grandson, and said, "Look at your sister carefully."

"I know, grandma, don't worry."

After receiving the money, Jiang Cheng, carrying his little cousin on his back, led his younger sister Dani, and rushed to Chuanhe Town.

Dani seldom has the opportunity to go to the market, and today, for the first time, eldest brother wants to take her with him, so he is so happy.

The little girl who never talked much, chatted with her elder brother and Yingbao along the way, she was very happy.

Ying Bao smiled and peeled off the cold horseshoe cake, handed one piece to Sister Dani, and another piece to Brother Datang.
