Chapter 34

The people in Xiao Liwan didn't sleep well that night.

Many people have heard a strange sound, but in winter, the wind in the wilderness can also move.

Many people also feel that something is wrong, which is different from the usual rumors.

Those who were near the cemetery could hear more clearly, they heard the sound.

But... that's the place of the ancestors, so it's late at night, is it necessary to see it?

No need, right?

Anyway, as long as you seal yourself with a quilt, it doesn't matter.

As for the dogs in the village barking like crazy, some dolls didn't sleep well, and many people didn't sleep well... That's not a big deal, after all, everyone got through last night safely!

It's just that people comfort themselves so much, and someone will always make an irresponsible inference: "Last night, the ancestral grave was haunted, and I heard a ghost crying..."

Everyone has nothing to say against it, and they are generally a little skeptical, or think that maybe this is right.

Could it be that the Chinese New Year is approaching and the old people have no money to spend?
Hey who, why did you go to the grave early this morning with yellow paper, our rule is that we only go to the grave on the first day of the Lunar New Year...

That who grinned: "I have prepared a lot of things, and the New Year is almost over, so give the old people some New Year's money in advance..."

It's so outrageous.

……

Yan Changqing slept quite well, and she was more devoted last night, and she moved a little bit at the second-level proficiency, which is considered a good harvest.

The main reason is that the environment is suitable, the atmosphere is also right beside a large grave mound covered with snow, and the dim moon sometimes appears and disappears in the sky...

There is also the cold wind blowing the dead branches, and the dark night shrouds the old village...

Coupled with the occasional slight crow...

In this environment, in this atmosphere, if you say you want to play an erhu to add to the fun, you will be sorry for yourself.

In the past, I had to play happy, happy, passionate and enterprising tunes. It was a rare time to let go of playing less happy, happy, passionate and enterprising tunes. It was quite enjoyable.

Just a little cold.

But after returning home, it became warmer. In his small room at home, the fire in the brazier was burning vigorously. It must have been burning since they left. Now the house is very warm.

There is also hot soup left over from dinner to drink.

No one asked him how his strategy of "public anger is hard to offend", so he could only say: "It's only the first day, my second uncle and I will go to find out the news tomorrow."

"That's the way things are in the village. The village chief and his family must be annoyed at us, but they can't help it. In the future, we will live with us. As long as we don't mess with us, we won't make trouble."

This matter touched everyone's heart.

The old couple of Yan Tiesheng have been honest all their lives. The two sons, the youngest son is not very reliable, but he is not a person who can make troubles. It is nothing more than young people who can't stand the boring life in the village and like to make troubles.

The same is true for Yan Haihai and his wife. If Yan Changqing hadn't been reborn, they would have been working as part-time workers for the rest of their lives.

And it seems that life is better, but in fact it is not as good as Yan Tiesheng's old couple.

They will not earn much money in the future. It seems that they can bring some money back every year when they come back from work, but in the end they are all sick. It is not as good as the old couple Yan Tiesheng who guarded their hometown in the village.

But this life must have changed, at least now.

Yan Changqing had made up his mind a long time ago, even if he stayed at home all his life, he couldn't let them come back with another problem.

……

After a good night's sleep, after dinner the next morning, Yan Changqing and Yan Erhe went to the threshing ground and waited.

The bear children are very active, tempted by sugar in the cold weather, and none of them sleep in late.

The children who were brought home yesterday also received news. Obviously, Yan Changqing is now more favored by the villagers, and their parents are not afraid to follow Yan Changqing to offend the village chief.

There are also a few parents who follow, but it's not really worrying, it's just that there is nothing to do during this time, so it's not bad to get together with more people for a stroll.

Yan Changqing did his part and brought a group of brats to the front, arrogantly, as if he was doing something important.

There are no bears crying tired on Erli Road, they are all tempted to spend money, and they feel happy while snotting their noses against the cold wind.

In fact, don't underestimate the physical strength of these brats, they will not be idle running around the village every day, and even splashing in the river and pond for a long time in summer will not feel tired.

……

Xiaoliwan's canteen is actually a family opening a hole in the wall. From the outside, you can tell that there is nothing inside.

There were so many people here at once, the old man in the commissary was very surprised. Knowing that he wanted to buy candy, he looked at the adults following him, and then quickly brought up two big bags: "This kind is five cents and four yuan, this kind is five cents. The ones cost six yuan, and the taste is similar, but this kind of packaging is better, and the goods are bought only after the Chinese New Year..."

They are all small sugar cubes, the ones that cost five cents and six yuan have only a simple thin sugar paper with a simple pattern printed on it, and it is impossible to tell what it is.

The wrapping paper for five cents and four yuan looks better. You can tell that there are oranges and apples printed on it. It seems that there are different tastes?
Yan Changqing bargained: "Sell me this kind of five cents and four yuan at six yuan, and I will buy it at four yuan and fifty cents, and you have to buy it after buying it. I know what your purchase price is, and you all pay it I’m not talking about buying by the catty, you can’t lose five cents or six yuan.”

The old man was not happy: "Then why don't you buy this kind? Knowing the purchase price, why don't you buy it yourself?"

Yan Changqing retorted: "I just came here because I was too lazy to wait. My second uncle and I often go out for a run, and I run back and forth in towns, counties, and cities. If you don't sell it, I will wait until I go out to buy it next time. You Calculate for yourself whether you are losing money or not? Can you sell it?"

The old man was still hesitant, Yan Changqing added to him: "Go to the county and buy the goods at the shopping mall next to the station, right? Ask the people in our village if I have to go out in a few days, go to the oil field, and then go to the county Went there by car."

He signaled the old man to a group of brats behind him: "I don't want them to wait. If I wait a few days, I can give them an extra one or two yuan. Don't you think so?"

The old man can’t do anything about it. Selling things in the village is because some people try to save trouble and convenience, and second, most people go out to the town by themselves, and they can’t buy the purchase price. It's not worth it to just take a car to the county with the sales of the canteen.

When I met someone who knew the situation today, I could only grit my teeth: "It's sold, wait for me to count it for you."

Yan Changqing put the money on the stone slab in the window and said: "Take it easy, there are 540 in total, you can do the math again, you won't be wrong. Forget it, I'll buy it for five yuan, six hundred, don't count." .”

No need to count, but counting is necessary. After counting for a long time, the old man was dazed and very slow—I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Yan Changqing always felt that the old man didn’t seem to have slept well, and the counting was very slow.

A group of brats drooled all over the floor to count them clearly.

Yan Changqing watched him finish his work: "Find me a bag to pack it in, and I'll take it home and divide it up."

The old man bowed his head and rummaged for a long time but couldn't find a suitable bag. Finally, he saw that the bag containing the sugar was purchased, which was not very good, so he just poured out the little sugar left in it, and was a little bit reluctant.

Yan Changqing comforted him: "You have to buy some goods later, can they give you a bag? By the way, I heard that in your village, what happened last night?"

The old man was shocked immediately, and then glared: "Shh, this is not nonsense, sometimes things that don't exist at all, can become true if you say too much. Children are not allowed to talk nonsense. When you get home later, let your mother use willow branches. Beat yourself up before entering the house..."

Yan Changqing was speechless, and he didn't know whether the old man had good intentions or deliberately frightened him.

After receiving the candy, he waved: "There's a queue, let's share the candy over there."

To be a human being is to be moral, and we can’t spread the price just mentioned everywhere at the door of the store, so as to affect people’s future business.

……

When he reached the main intersection, Yan Changqing found a clean place and shouted, "I heard the price just now. It's okay to share 24 candies per person, right? Line up and get it."

A group of brats started to get excited, and some were chirping, and a few older ones were counting with a wrench. Yan Changqing was impatient with their counting skills: "Don't count, come here to get candy first, if you can't figure it out, go home and ask." Your adults go."

When one or two of the adults behind heard this, they subconsciously backed away a little: afraid to ask!

There was also a quick responder: "Why don't you teach them to count Qijin, and let them ask, so you can figure it out on the spot."

Yan Changqing could see the thoughts of these people, a little helpless and a little speechless, and he simply said: "Listen, I will count it for you! Just now the uncle said that this kind of candy costs five cents and four, and I bargained down to five cents and six. One. How much is that dime, it will be counted...forget it, let me continue..."
