The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

Chapter 66 Making wooden boxes

Li Ji and the others can make wooden boxes at will, but what kind of style the wooden box should be made of, whether it should be carved or not, and what kind of carving it should be, depends on Pomegranate.

Pomegranate then gave them a brief introduction.

There are three types of wooden boxes, one is square, with ten small grids inside, and butterflies and melon vines are carved on the surface. The melons and melons are continuous, which means the prosperity of future generations.

A kind of rhombus with ten small grids inside, carved with a rooster crowing on the stone, which means good luck in the house, implying the health and good fortune of the house.

A round shape with ten small grids inside, with several goldfish carved on it. The hall is filled with gold and jade, which means wealth and abundance.

At that time, there will be one hundred fructose candies in three colors in this wooden box.

Li Ji and a few others immediately figured it out after listening to it, and after discussing it in detail, they came up with a division of labor.

Li Jihe and his two brothers, Li Rong and Zong, were responsible for making the house full of gold and jade. It was difficult to carve a few goldfish. Li Jihe and Uncle Song were the two most skilled carvers. He had this talent. Sometimes, Li Jihe was the best carver. He is better than his master, Old Man Song, and even Old Man Song is proud of him.

The uncle Song's father and son and the second uncle Song's father and son were respectively responsible for the family's great luck and Gua Lv Mianmian.

After this agreement, several people began to work on the wood that Li Ji and his father had divided yesterday.

The two brothers, Song Jinsheng and Song Yinsheng, came to help build the furniture. Since Li Jihe didn't have any wood prepared, Uncle Song and the others had to go to the lumberyard and bring a letter to Manager Tu after they got home today before they could do it. The Song family Not far from Jinjiazhuang.

Therefore, Pomegranate simply took the two of them to help today and went to the Lin family in Tianbao Village to buy oranges.

The wooden box won't be ready for a while, but the fructose can't be stopped either. One more day will cost money.

Also going together was Li Rongzhang. Although they were cousins, Song Yinsheng and Song Jinsheng were already old enough to talk about marriage, and Pomegranate was already thirteen years old. It would be unavoidable to go alone, so people said it would be more appropriate to have Li Rongzhang follow.

The four of them went to Tianbao Village together. It was only a few miles away, and they arrived unknowingly while talking along the way.

After entering the village, I asked about the Lin family, and the enthusiastic villagers gave me directions, and I quickly found the Lin family.

Seeing Lin Laosan, Shiliu immediately smiled and said something.

As soon as Lin Laosan heard that the pomegranate was the daughter of Brother Li who had bought a lot of oranges from his family that day, and that she was here to buy oranges today, she immediately ordered her son to take the pomegranates with them to their own fruit tree.

Along the way, he kept talking to Pomegranate, "How are my oranges? Are they sweet? I can tell your father that I will still count these oranges on you at four cents a pound! How many do you plan to buy today?"

Pomegranate thought that Jinsheng's cousin and Yinsheng's cousin could carry forty kilograms each. She could carry thirty kilograms, and Zhang brother could carry seven or eight kilograms, so he said: "Today I will buy eight kilograms." Ten pounds, maybe!”

"Sure!" Lin Laosan responded, and as he spoke, he also arrived at the fruit tree field. Lin Laosan's two sons jumped up the tree like monkeys and picked oranges.

Song Jinsheng and Song Yinsheng looked at it, but it didn't look like they were waiting, so they wanted to go up to the tree to help pick, so that they could carry it back.

But as soon as the two of them started to move, Lin Laosan on the side stopped him and said that others were not allowed to climb his fruit tree. His two sons were very experienced in climbing trees and picking oranges. They knew how not to damage the trees and other people would not allow them to climb. Those who know the severity are afraid of damaging the fruit trees.

After saying this, Song Jinsheng and the two couldn't move any more. They just helped to put the oranges they picked into the baskets.

After all the baskets were loaded, I estimated that I had eighty kilograms, so I stopped picking oranges and carried them back to weigh myself. I found that it was only two kilograms more than eighty kilograms. Lin Laosan waved his hand and said with a smile that the extra two kilograms would be given to the pomegranate brothers and sisters to eat and play with, so it would not count as money.

Shiliu thanked him with a sweet smile, paid three cents and twenty silver coins for eighty kilograms, and then he and Song Jinsheng each carried a basket, and left Lin's house towards the entrance of the village.

Not far after leaving Lin's house, I just turned a corner and came face to face with a girl carrying a pile of tall grass on her back that made her back bend. She didn't pay attention to the road ahead. Song Jinsheng, who was leading the way, didn't pay attention either. , the two of them collided.

A piece of green grass attached to the overloaded basket turned upside down, like an overturned turtle lying on its back and unable to turn back.

Song Jinsheng, on the other hand, dropped the orange and rolled it to the ground. He got up and went to take care of the orange first.

Seeing that the girl couldn't get up, Shiliu quickly put down the backpack and pulled her up, "Are you okay?"

The girl was dark-skinned. She might have blushed a little when she was pulled up, but you couldn't tell. She just smiled and said in a loud voice: "Thank you, sister! I'm fine!"

After that, he helped to pick up oranges.

Seeing that she was okay, Pomegranate got up and helped pick up oranges. She looked cheerful and not coy, and she also felt good about her.

Fortunately, the oranges were not broken when they rolled out. A few people picked them up and put them back in the basket. Song Jinsheng carried them on his back again. The pomegranates thanked the girl, and they continued to move forward.

"Er Feng!"

At this time, a girl with a basket on her back suddenly came over from the other end. She ran up to the girl and was still chattering: "Er Feng, didn't we agree to go out to hunt pigweed together! Why didn't you call me?" Are you finished? Do you want to go for the second round? I'll wait for you."

The girl named Erfeng put her pigweed on her back, and her back was pressed down again, but her tone was cheerful: "I will hit two more people on the back than you every day! I will hit this one first, and then I will call you too." It’s not too late! I don’t want you to spend more time with me! You go to the river and wait for me! I’ll come as soon as I can carry you home!”

Pomegranate had already walked about ten steps. Listening to the conversation between the two girls, she couldn't help but look back. Seeing the girl who was bent over by the basket on her back and walking forward with her head buried in her back, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrow slightly. eyebrow.

After returning home, Shiliu approached Mr. Song, who was having lunch, "Mom, why didn't my aunt believe it? Are you still looking at this marriage?"

Mrs. Song said: "Well, our family was busy building a house earlier. Your grandma specifically told my aunt to give up the time to see each other. You were selling sweets in the city. Your grandma told her." I came here and said that my aunt sent me a message and we have decided to see each other on the 20th!"

"See you on the 20th? Isn't that tomorrow?"

Mrs. Song nodded and said with a smile: "Tomorrow! Why don't your eldest sister and I rush to make the new clothes you brought with you? Let's see each other tomorrow and let your eldest brother wear new clothes so that people can see Stay in good spirits!"

Pomegranate couldn't help but say: "Even if I don't wear new clothes, my brother is still energetic!"

She was not lying. Mrs. Song was a well-born mother. She was famous in every village in the country back then, and there were many families who wanted to marry her!

The appearance of the Li family is also considered to be upright, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which is particularly distinctive. In this way, the pomegranate brothers and sisters cannot be ugly.

Not to mention how beautiful it is, but it still looks good, and it’s not ugly!
While talking, Shiliu thought about the girl she had just met before and couldn't help but said: "Mom, the girl my aunt mentioned is called Erfeng, right? I met a girl named Erfeng in Tianbao Village today. I don't know if she is. ?”
