High-priced prostitutes, side concubine is also crazy
First order for the first pot of gold!ask for support
060. The first pot of gold (15000+) begging for the first order!Seeking all kinds of support for the ancient air is fresh, not to mention it is early morning now, although it is late autumn, and the leaves of many trees have been dusted with the autumn wind, but most of the trees in this village called Sanlipuzi are still the same. It is tall and straight and green, especially when viewed from a distance, the lush woods are moving in the wind, which is really beautiful.But the nearby dry land is yellow and desolate.Duoduo thought to herself, here is a hilly terrain, and there are trees that don't shed their leaves all the year round... This treatment should be in the southern region!
Since it is the autumn harvest season now, the market twice in seven days has been changed to once in ten days. Therefore, no matter how busy everyone is in the market now, one person will go to the town to buy some daily necessities something.
And the people in Sanli Shop have always been thrifty and down-to-earth, mainly because of poverty, so when most people go, there are very few people who take a carriage, unless they have something to sell at the market, they will be cruel. Pay two pennies to take a carriage.
But most of the people who went to the market chose to walk. No, when Duoduo and others went out, they saw people from the village walking towards the town in pairs one after another.
"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Lan? Why are you going to the market? Seeing that you have taken so many things, why don't you think about taking a ride? That's right, she was kicked out by her mother-in-law just now, and she brought the child again It’s going to be a hard time to get out of the house!” The person who spoke was Widow Li from Sanli Shop, if you want to say who Widow Li is most jealous of and hates the most, it must be the Liu family, because the same A widow, but she has the support of her husband's family and a pair of children, but she has nothing and lives alone. The most important thing is that Liu's appearance is a hundred times stronger than her. This made her very uncomfortable.
"What's the matter with you if you don't take a car? Besides, why is it difficult for my sister-in-law Guanghui and her two sons and daughters? It's you, hmph! Just take care of yourself if you have nothing to do, and don't talk about others when you have nothing to do!" She just lowered her head and kept silent, but Wan Shi couldn't help it. Wan Shi has always been a straightforward woman with a simple and straightforward mind.
"What kind of onion are you? What's the matter with you? What's the matter with me? I don't have children. It's because my man died early. Now that you are you, you have been married for a few years. Isn't it still nothing? What a joke, Do you still have the face to criticize me?" Widow Li said in an ugly way, and walked away twisting the waist of her bucket after speaking.
"You..." Wan Shi was about to go crazy.
"Okay, what do you usually see with her? People in our village don't know who she is, okay, don't be angry!" said the aunt of the Liu family who lived next to the third grandma. So no one in the village disliked her, so they came out to persuade her at this time.
"I just can't stand her frivolous look! Bah!" Wan Shi also yelled in the direction of Widow Li.
"Miss Duoduo, you have been going up the mountain every day to pick the wild flowers and the things that are drying on the house. Could it be that Li Erniu in our village ate the poisoned things? What are you going to do? Don't blame your aunt Mind your own business, that thing is going to eat the dead!" Aunt Liu and the third grandma's house are only separated by a wall, and in a place like this in the countryside, how can it be that kind of high wall, it's just a low wall to separate the yards of each house That's all, besides, it's such a small village, if someone has something strange every day, everyone in the village will know it the next day.
And Duoduo, the mother and daughter, have been going up to the mountains every day to pick wild flowers and poisonous things since they separated. Mrs. Lan was kicked out by the old lady Lan and was stimulated. Some said that they sold it for money, and some said that they were so poor and crazy that they thought of making money in this way. There was a lot of discussion.
Aunt Liu, who went to the market together today, kindly reminded them.
"Auntie, it was made by that kid Dodo. That black thing is called fungus. It's delicious. My father and mother have tasted it. It's not poisonous at all. If you want to say, that kid Dodo is smart and knows How to eat, some people, she must not follow suit, even if she wants to eat, she can't eat it, but not everyone is as smart as Duo Duo, if the time comes, if the food is poisoned, You can blame others, we don't take the responsibility!" Mrs. Liu did not make a sound, but Mrs. Wan took over the words and said, but this Mrs. Wan is also very smart, although Duo Duo has already told them how to deal with it method, but Wan didn't say it in public, and she saw that some people had already listened to Grandma Liu's question and wanted to hear what happened, so Wan didn't forget to hit everyone's head thought.
"There's another thing like this, so it's a good thing, Duo Duo is such a good boy, so the life of the three of them, mother and daughter, will be easier, right?" Aunt Liu also said happily.At this time, she had no idea what the value of the fungus was.
Duo Duo and Lan Qian just rolled their eyes together and kept a low profile as much as possible, because now they are full of thoughts about whether these things can be sold for a price.
Everyone didn't talk about the commonplace at this time, because everyone wanted to save time, and everyone was walking on a bumpy path.So everyone is carefully watching the road under their feet, and they are no longer short by the east and the west.
It took about two quarters of an hour for them to arrive at the market, and Duoduo's feet ached from walking.Dodo couldn't help thinking to herself, even though she is thin and small, her body is really good. If this is in modern times, how can she walk for so long!
As soon as she entered the market, Dodo couldn't help but look around curiously. Even though it is a market, it is only two streets away!No, it should be said to be one street, because the terrain here is uneven, one side is high and the other is low, resulting in the phenomenon of two streets.The houses on the street face each other in two rows, and the houses facing the street are all shops, some selling groceries, cloth, rouge and gouache, and restaurants and noodle shops, etc.
The sale of those farm bulk goods is in the middle of the two rows of houses, on the upper and lower streets.This street has no end here, not because the street is too long, but because the houses are built according to the mountain, so there are inevitable twists and turns...
************************************************** **************************************************
Dodo originally thought that the market in this small town should not be too big, but she never expected that the market would be so prosperous.
But if you think about it carefully, the people who come to this town to go to the market are not only people from their own village, but people from many villages also come to the market one after another, not to mention that the market that was originally held twice a week is now once every ten days. And it should be.
Duoduo and his three mothers first made an appointment with Wan Shi to go back together, where to wait, then found a place selling bulk goods from farmers, first opened the bag of fungus, and then put The cold fungus prepared in the morning was also taken out, and there were many small bamboo sticks cut by Lan Guanglei on the fungus. At that time, everyone asked Duo Duo, why do you want these small bamboo sticks, and Duo Duo said yes. Everyone used it for tasting. At that time, the third grandma was still very worried. What if they let others taste it and they don’t buy it?Didn't they lose it?
But Duo Duo said, you may have seen this fungus when it was fresh, but it was poisoned by people, but you have never seen this kind of dried fungus. If you don’t get some for everyone to taste, Then who would buy it? Later, when everyone thought about it, this was the case, but the third grandfather who had eaten the fungus yelled in distress.
At this time, after Duoduo arranged the fungus and tastes they were going to sell, the number of people on this episode gradually increased. Mrs. Liu was shy, but just stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. Okay, and Lan Qian was still a child, and he was standing aside rubbing his hands, not knowing what to do.
"Fresh fungus, you can eat it with cold salad, or you can eat it with arguing. Everyone who is passing by, uncles, aunts, and grandmas, come and taste it. It is free of charge. If you eat it well, Also, please weigh some and take it home to taste!" Nene shouted at the top of his voice.
Seeing that his sister was yelling so funny, Lan Qian also yelled along with her, only Liu's cheeks blushed uncontrollably.
"Mother, you can just weigh the scale in a while, you don't need to shout!" Seeing Liu's tangled look, Dodo opened her mouth to help her.
"Alas!" As expected, Mrs. Liu happily agreed when she heard her daughter say this.
Maybe it was the cries that attracted everyone, or the free tasting attracted everyone, but in short, several people gathered around and asked, "How do you sell this fungus thing? Can you try it first? It doesn't cost money." ?” A 60-year-old lady opened her mouth and asked.
"Auntie, this fungus costs 100 Wen and one tael!" Nene said with a sweet smile.
"Yo, I'm still an aunt, I can be your grandma!" The old lady was very happy when she was called an aunt by the little girl.
"How can my aunt be my grandma at such a young age? My grandma is over 50, but how does my aunt look like someone in her early forties!" Duo Duo said sweetly.
"This kid's little mouth is so sweet. I'm 58 this year, so I'm still in my early forties!" Although he retorted, the smile on his face didn't diminish at all.
"It's just that little girl, what kind of precious thing are you? The green vegetables are only one tael for a hundred renminbi, and the pork is only fifteen renminbi a catty, which is too expensive! This one hundred renminbi How much pork can I buy?" the old lady said seriously.
The ancients, especially the country people, didn't know the way of keeping in good health at all, and in their opinion, no matter how delicious this dish is, how can it taste better than that meat?So when everyone heard the price, it was a sky-high price, and they all shook their heads and talked about it.
"Auntie, don't underestimate these two. You can eat a meal if you grab this handful, whether it's fried with eggs, fried with meat, or fried like me. This kind of cold salad tastes very good, you can try it first, if it is not delicious, you don’t have to buy it, this winter is coming soon, every day is cabbage, sauerkraut, potato, and there are no other dishes, more clothes Ah, and this fungus can be stored for a long time, as long as you eat it, soak it in water, and then wash it, it will become so soft, auntie, you should try it first!" Saying, Duo Duo used The old lady tied a small piece of the thin bamboo stick.
In fact, when discussing how much this fungus sells at home, everyone is surprised at Duo Duo’s asking price. In their minds, they also feel that this will not work. Pork and fish are only how much a catty. It's delicious, but it's just a vegetable. They thought that no one would buy it. They were dumbfounded when Duoduo just grabbed a handful of fungus and mixed it on a plate. Well, if it is this catty of fungus, if you save it, it is possible to eat it for a whole winter. After all, there are few vegetables in winter, and those rich and big families will spend high prices to transport them here. The people in the village can only be willing to spend some money to buy a little green vegetables when they are in the early years, so after Duo Duo's analysis, they feel that it is feasible to sell them for one or two catties.
Sure enough, the people around today had the same thoughts as the third grandma and the others, so Duo Duo explained to them.
"Oh, it's really tender and refreshing. It's really delicious. Girl, you mean it can be fried and eaten. Can it be eaten with eggs or meat? Can it be as refreshing as cold salad?" The old lady said. After tasting the taste, I was full of praise, and at the same time, I also made sure that it was delicious even if it was fried.
"Of course, this fungus is also delicious when fried. The most important thing is that as long as you grab a handful of this thing, you can have a meal. When will it be a dish on our dinner table? Don’t you think so, auntie!” Dodo’s mouthful and auntie calls were very kind, which already made the old lady happy, not to mention that she had eaten such delicious food, so she stomped her feet and gritted her teeth .
"Weigh five taels for me. Buy it back for my son and daughter-in-law to taste. If it's ready, I'll buy it again!" After finishing speaking, he counted a string of five hundred taels from his pocket Handed the copper coin to Duo Duo.
You know, these five taels of fungus are worth five hundred Wen. For country people, this five Wen can be spent for a month. If some people save some flowers, they can spend half a year. Well, this old lady must have a good family, so she bought it for [-] Wen.
************************************************** ******************************
"Okay, then you're ready to eat, but come to buy again, this thing can be stored, as long as it is not placed in a dry place, it will be fine for a year or so, mother, hurry up, give it to this aunt My son weighed five taels tall!" After taking the money with her hand, Duoduo counted it, put it in the pocket she had prepared, and put it into her bosom.
"Oh! Good! Good!" Mrs. Liu heard that they bought five taels as soon as they bought it, and she was so excited that she was dumbfounded. It was Duo Duo who called her over, and she hurriedly weighed the high five taels for him. Pass it to others.
"Here, this is the first one for my aunt, I will add some more for my aunt!" As he said, he grabbed a few more yuan and put it in for the old lady.
This made the old lady laugh, you know this thing is expensive, one tael costs a hundred Wen, but this girl asked her mother to weigh her high, and this time she caught some , how can she not be happy.
"This little girl really knows how to do business. Come on, I said, sisters, you should try it too. This food is really delicious. Everyone buy some and go back and try it. We are so old, why don't we just try it?" Isn't it fresh?" Sure enough, this person is short-mouthed and short-handed, and at this moment, the old lady invited her old sisters to come and taste and buy some back, so as to Hug back Duo Duo's cuteness.
"Hey, girl from the Zhang family, is this really that delicious? Then I have to try it. You are famous for your tricky mouth! Little girl, give me a piece!"
"And I!"
"Let's try it too, it looks delicious!"
"..."
After the lady's publicity, not only the old lady's old sisters, but even the onlookers wanted to try it one after another, and Duo Duo handed it to them with a smile.
"Weigh two liang for me. I don't have much money today. Buy it and try it first. Come back after eating!"
"Call me two taels..."
"Weigh me three or two..."
"..." After everyone tasted it, they were all full of praise, and asked to buy some back for the family to taste.
After a while, all the more than two catties of fungus they brought were sold out. Of course, there were still a lot of unpurchased ones. They were very disappointed and said that they would sell them again next time and so on.
As for the reason why I didn’t bring too many to sell, one is because I don’t know if people in the town will recognize it, because it’s not cheap after all, and the other is because there are so many people coming and going in the town, selling too many It's not good for money to be targeted by others. They are orphans and widows, so they are weak.
When the crowd dispersed and Duo Duo was packing up the empty bags, Lan Qian and Liu Shi couldn't recover for a long time, they were giggling and standing there blankly. After selling it for two liang of silver, the extra money was added to the scales. You must know that if the two liang of silver were in ordinary people's household, it would be a year's expenses. How could they not be excited.
"Mother, Qian'er, let's go to the embroidery workshop now. After going to the embroidery workshop, we still have to go to the pharmacy. There is not much time left, and we will meet up with my aunt in a while!" Duoduo stood up and put her hand on the The smirking two people shook their eyes and said.
"Ah! That's right, let's go quickly!" Now Liu's brows and eyes are full of smiles.
"Sister, I still feel like I'm dreaming now, our fungus has earned so much money!" Lan Qian said in a low voice with his big eyes already laughing into crescents.
"Qian'er, you want it. When you go back later, you can't tell others how much money we have earned. If others have malicious intentions, it will be bad. Remember not to reveal the money! "Duoduo thought that she would take a ride when she went back later, because she was going to reward everyone. First of all, she must improve her food, so when she saw what they bought, some people would definitely ask curiously. Everyone knows that after selling for so much money, those jealous people may have some ideas.
Fortunately, she has the foresight. These days, she took everyone to pick all the fungus and brought them home. What does she mean by earning money? I can’t say how selfish Dodo is, but after all, she is the first person to lead them to eat fungus. Since she is a leader, she must enjoy the privileges of the first year. As for the future Of course, she won't monopolize it, and it's impossible for those individuals in the village to monopolize it. She just can't figure it out now. The fungus is only on a dozen dead trees. It seems that someone deliberately Planted, but why no one knows how to eat it?
"I know, sister, I won't say it!" Seeing her sister's serious and pensive look, Lan Qian nodded seriously and replied.
Seeing what the two sisters and younger brothers were whispering, Liu looked around, then whispered in Duo'er's ear, "Duo'er, you have to collect the money, don't let anyone Let's go!"
"Mother, don't worry, but you have to do what you promised your daughter!" Duo Duo winked at Liu Shi mysteriously.
"... Alas!" Mrs. Liu responded in a very embarrassed way.
Lan Qian first looked at his sister, then at his mother, but neither of them responded to him, so he had no choice but to follow behind them.
The three mother and daughter walked through a street before reaching the embroidery shop street in the market. They said it was a embroidery shop street because there were more than one embroidery shop in the market.Think about the reason why many peasant women rely on needlework to make money!
As soon as Mrs. Liu arrived at the embroidery shop, she called out "Sister Wang", and saw a woman who was about the same age as Mrs. Liu came out, probably because she didn't do farm work, the woman's cheeks looked paler and cleaner. In other words, Mrs. Liu looked even older, Duoduo secretly thought that she must help her mother improve in the future.
************************************************** ***********************************
"Sister Liu is here. How about the embroidery work? How much are you going to take this time?" I have to say that the boss is very satisfied with Liu's embroidery work. They had to try their hands first, but she was very satisfied with Mr. Liu's embroidery skills, and Mr. Liu didn't ask for extravagant prices, so she liked it very much.
"Sister Wang, what do you think of these embroidery works, and these five ties, look at them all, are you satisfied?" Mrs. Liu spread out her burden and showed those embroidery works to Sister Wang.
"I can trust your embroidery work, ah! What kind of pattern is this, so unique?" Sister Wang picked out the Chinese knot made by Duo Duo from the five ties.
"This is called a concentric knot, and it was created by my girl herself. I just want to talk to you about it this time!" Mrs. Liu looked at Duo Duo first, and then opened her mouth to her as if she had made up her mind. Said Miss Wang, the owner of an embroidery shop.
"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Based on Sister Wang's experience over the years, what Mrs. Liu wants to say is probably not good for her.
"It's me, girl. She loves my eyes and doesn't plan to let me do any more embroidery work. Therefore, after I send this embroidery work, I don't plan to take any more embroidery work. Also, when you see this net Well, we can continue to weave this net, but the girl said that it is quite troublesome to weave, if Sister Wang is satisfied with looking at it, she can increase it for us..."
It can be said that Mrs. Liu finished this passage with her eyes closed. In her heart, Sister Wang helped her when she was most short of money, but now she is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. It is really unethical, but her own daughter is Said that this is called an exchange of equal value, and she didn't know exactly what it meant, but in short, it meant that it was basically equal, and there was no one to say sorry to anyone.
"Oh? Then how much do you plan to raise?" The owner of the embroidery shop was in business after all, and asked without any displeasure.
"Hmm... From the previous nine Wen coins... from the previous nine Wen coins... to twenty Wen coins each!" Stuttered Liu, she even dared not look into Sister Wang's eyes.
"Bang!" He slapped the table.
Frightened, Mrs. Liu stood up from her chair and looked at the owner of the embroidery shop anxiously.
"Okay, that's it. But, you have to be sure, you can only call my family, and you can't spread it. If it spreads, then..." The owner of the embroidery shop is also a person, of course she can predict it. The future value of this net, she is not that short-sighted person, so she agreed immediately, but she had to say the ugly words up front, so as to save unnecessary trouble in the future.
"Aunt Wang, in fact, if I promise you, I won't assign it to other families, and you won't be at ease. Why don't we think of a way to get the best of both worlds? What do you think? Save it until the end, and we will break up!" Duo Duo Knowing that the owner of the embroidery shop is a smart person, he didn't hide from her.
"Oh? Little girl, how can you have the best of both worlds?" The owner of the embroidery shop noticed early on that among the three of them, it was the little girl who got the final say. When she was young, she kept looking at her daughter, so the owner of the embroidery shop really wanted to see what the little girl had in mind.
"Aunt Wang, I can teach you the method of weaving nets only. From now on, you will be the only one who will do it. Moreover, we need to sign an agreement, so that you can put your heart in your stomach!" Dodo said with a smile.
"Oh? Then how much are you going to sell me for this method?" The embroidery shop owner fell in love with this clever little girl even more.
"Only five taels of silver!" God, please forgive her, she had no choice but to exchange other people's hard work for money, and she didn't sell too much. She added originality to this sympathy knot. Stealth learning, I am afraid it will not succeed.
When Duo Duo mentioned five taels of silver, the owner of the embroidery shop didn't say anything, but Liu Shi and Lan Qian suddenly stood up again and looked at Duo Duo.
"Little girl, the price you want is a bit high?" the embroidery shop owner said tentatively.
"Aunt Wang, do you really think it's high? Five taels of silver, you bought this method, you know, if I make it myself, a net is 10 yuan, and 200 nets are [-] yuan, and I can finish this thing in a quarter of an hour, think about it, if I really make it up by myself, how much can I earn in a day, how much can I earn in a month, and how much can I earn in a year?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you that our family has a lot of work to do, and this thing is very tiring to the eyes. You also know that we country people, at night, the weak light hurts the eyes very much. That's why I don't let it The reason why my mother does embroidery is why I want to sell you this method, if you think it is expensive, then forget it!" Dodo said very sincerely, and finally waved her hands.
"Oh, sister Liu, how did you give birth to such a clever little ghost? You are so smart. Well, just as you said, I bought your concentric knot method. Let's set up one now. Write it down." The owner of the embroidery shop readily agreed.
In this way, the two sides established a written agreement. At Duo Duo's request, the five taels of silver, plus Duo Duo took out the two thousand copper coins that sold her fungus, and asked the embroidery shop owner to exchange it for her. A total of seven taels of broken silver is much more convenient to carry, and the embroidery work earned a total of 45 Wen, and the five nets were collected at nine Wen each, so the net money was only 75 Wen, totaling [-] Wen coins, Duo Duo is the copper coin he wants.
After Duoduo pressed her fingerprints to handle everything, Liu Shi and Lan Qian were still stunned. In Liu Shi's own words later, she didn't know how she got out of the embroidery shop at that time.
After leaving the embroidery shop, Liu Shi and Lan Qian regained their composure. They had bright smiles on their faces. Liu Shi has never seen so much seven taels of silver in his whole life. How could he not be happy? .
"Duo Duo, shall we go to the pharmacy next? If you want me to say that this money is also earned, we still have so many fungus in our family, which is enough for us mother and daughter to live, and your wild flowers don't know how to do it." No, don't let the people from the pharmacy kick us out, that would be bad!" After all, Mrs. Liu just didn't believe that wild chrysanthemum could cure diseases, and if it was really a medicine, she would give it to people What should I do if it is broken?
************************************************** ************************************************
Ms. Liu is still a traditional peasant woman from the bottom of her heart. What she hopes is enough food and money, and the family is safe and sound. She doesn't need to be rich, she just wants everyone to be healthy, so for Duo Duo to sell Herbs, she was very worried.
"Mother, don't you believe me about the fungus? Don't worry!" Duoduo said coquettishly, pulling Liu's arm.
"Yeah, mother, you just trust my sister once, I think my sister's matter will definitely happen!" Lan Qian said with narrowed eyes and a smile, holding Liu's other arm and shaking it.
"Both of you, that's fine, mother will follow you, let's go quickly, and we will buy some things to go back later!" After the last time, they started fighting alone, and they didn't eat with the third grandma's family. When the third grandma's family made delicious food, they would bring it to them, so the ten catties of rice and ten catties of noodles were eaten at this fair. Why should I buy more this time when I go back.
With the support of Mrs. Liu, the three of them walked to the medicine shop. The medicine shop was just down the street from the embroidered shop, so they arrived at the medicine shop in a short time.
I saw that the interior layout of this Qishantang pharmacy is roughly a counter on the left, with Chinese herbal medicines placed behind the counter, and a place for doctors to sit on the inside on the right. At the moment, some patients are sitting against the right wall .
The pharmacy is small, but clean and tidy.Suddenly came a kindly question: "Excuse me, are you taking medicine or seeing a doctor?"
When Duoduo heard the sound and turned around, she saw a man of about twenty who looked like an apprentice, lying in front of the counter and watching them.
"Brother, does your pharmacy accept powdered medicine?" Dodo asked very politely.
"We collect loose medicine here, do you have any medicine in your hand?" Although this young man was a little funny, there are three people here, two children, and a village woman, what medicine can they have in their hands, but, The master once told them that people should not be judged by their appearance, and they must be polite to every guest, so this little guy didn't treat them slowly in the slightest.
Duoduo put the cloth bag in his hand on the counter, untied the cloth bag, and the boy took a handful of medicinal chrysanthemums from inside and spread them out in his hand to have a look, the color was bright and bright, but the color was excellent.A few traces of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he put the medicinal chrysanthemum under his nose and smelled it. The fragrance of orange blossoms should be quite a bit - this is unexpected that this family knows how to handle medicinal materials...
The little guy thought about it, and then looked at Blossom with a slightly probing look.Duoduo responded calmly, but she was so anxious that Liu Shi and Lan Qian were in a state of turmoil. Seeing the young man who was silent for a long time, just looking at them, they felt a little nervous. Nervous and scared, after all, this is a medicinal material, if it is not eaten well, it will eat dead people, so when they saw this guy's probing gaze, their hearts hung in their throats, for fear that he would say something as soon as he opened his mouth. bad.
But now Dodo is full of confidence. She meets the probing gaze and smiles slightly, because judging from the boy's reaction just now, the medicine should be qualified. How much is it.
Seeing how nervous Liu Shi and Lan Qian were, Dodo asked, "How about it, do you accept it?"
"Oh, little girl, just wait a moment, I'll go to the back and ask the master, I'm just an apprentice now, some things I can't decide!" The boy said politely.
"Okay then, go and ask, we'll wait here, but please hurry up, because we have to go shopping later!" Dodo said.
"Okay, my mother is coming back!" After saying that, the boy disappeared in a flash.
"Duo'er, is there anything wrong? I think that little brother's complexion is not kind!" Mrs. Liu asked Douduo, pulling her aside.
"Mother, it's okay, just put your heart in your stomach!" Dodo pushed Liu Shi onto the chair, and waited patiently.
Sure enough, after a while, the little guy in the shop happily came out of the backyard with the medicinal materials, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Several, just now the master said that your medicine is not only good in quality, but also specially treated. Yes, and this medicine is handled well regardless of the heat and sunlight, it is a rare good medicine, so our pharmacy accepted it."
"Brother, is it true? Is this really a medicine? Can it really cure a disease?" Liu finally let go of the breath she had just been holding, but still wanted to confirm it again.
"Of course, this is an excellent medicinal material!" The boy said cheerfully.
"Then, little brother, how much do you plan to charge?" Dodo finally asked what she was most concerned about.
The little guy casually brought the abacus over, and while flipping the abacus, he muttered: "You have processed this medicinal chrysanthemum, and it is also an excellent variety, so our shopkeeper said, I will give you fifty cents a piece." Jin, you all have three catties and two taels, so how about a total of 160 Wen?"
"What? It costs fifty Wen a catty? Is it true? Is it true?" Mrs. Liu never imagined that the small wild flowers all over the mountains and plains could be sold for money. ah?So very happy.
"Yes, if you agree, I will pay you the money!" the little boy asked Xun.He thought to himself, this family is really interesting, the person who is called mother is so happy, but the daughter is so calm and composed.
But Duo Duo yelled in her heart that it was worthless, as expected, the fungus was the most profitable, and once the wild chrysanthemum was processed, there was not much at all. Forget it, it was not too much as she expected, so let’s sell it, anyway, this is also Something that costs nothing.
"Okay then, little brother, let's sell it, you pay for it!" Dodo said with a smile.
The guy handed the prepared 150 copper plates to Dodo and said: "Little sister, if you have other good medicines next time, don't forget to bring them to us. We will definitely give them to you." I will give you the highest price!"

"Okay! That little brother, let's go first!" Duo Duo, Liu Shi and others bid farewell to the young man and left.
"Sister, why am I still dreaming now? I never thought that the little wild chrysanthemum could be sold for money. When I go back, I still know a place where there are large fields of wild chrysanthemum!" Lan Qian narrowed his eyes and smiled, A catty of wild chrysanthemums can be sold for fifty cents, which is equivalent to money that fell from the sky. How could he be unhappy? In the past, before the family was separated, let alone fifty cents, he was a penny I haven't seen Qian before. The three of them, the mother and the son, have never even been to the fair. Generally, when there is such a good thing as going to the fair, the aunt brings Yu'er in a carriage. The three of them, the mother and the son, are only at home. It's a small job, but now, they have made money, they have money, so the smile on Xiao Lanqian's disheveled face has never been broken.
Looking at the malnourished appearance of a family of three, Duo Duo decided that the 75 Wen from the embroidery shop, plus the 150 Wen earned from selling small wild chrysanthemums, would be 220 and [-] Wen in total. Third grandma, for the rest, Duoduo is going to buy some more grain, because although it is autumn, the new grain will come soon, but the three of them, mother and child, have no land, and they will not have their share of the new grain, so They must prepare some food.
"Qian'er, you earned a lot of credit for earning this money. Tell your sister, what do you want?" Douduo saw the joy on Lan Qian's face and his thin body, Can't help but ask.
"Can I ask for anything?" Lan Qian looked at Mrs. Liu as he asked.
"Of course, anything is fine. This is Qian'er's own money. Even my mother, she will agree!" Duo Duo said with a smile.
"Then...then can you buy me a pen and a few Zhangs? I want to learn to write with brother Siyuan when I have time. He promised me before that he would teach me, sister, do you remember? No, it was when brother Siyuan taught you to write on the ground, he said that he would teach me when I was older!" Lan Qian's thin face was full of pleading, fearing that Duo Duo couldn't remember, but also A special reminder of the scene.
It turns out that she is still literate. If Lan Qian didn't tell her, she really wouldn't know, but Dodo was very happy to see her younger brother being so dedicated, because there was only Lan Qian in their family. If they are capable, their lives will not be too easy for their wives. Even if they do get married in the future, they will not be able to do without the support of their natal family, so she supports Lan Qian's idea very much.
"Then besides pen and paper, what else do you want? These two things don't count. Even if you don't ask sister, she will buy it for you. You are the only man in our family. Only you are strong. My mother and I You won't be bullied, and now you are doing your best, I am very happy!" Dodo said as she walked, holding Lan Qian's little hand.
"I...I..." Suddenly Lan Qian's little face turned red, and the shy me...I can't stop.
"Let me tell you for him, I'm afraid he wants to eat meat. Except for the Chinese New Year, you two can eat half a piece of meat, the rest is really..." As he spoke, Liu's eye circles turned red again , She has been blaming herself, if she had become stronger earlier, she would not have let these two children suffer such a big punishment.
"Is it okay, sister?" Lan Qian asked cautiously.
"Is there anything wrong with this? This is the money that we, Lan Qian, earn by ourselves. We can buy whatever we want. Let's go, let's go and buy food!" Dodo winked at Lan Qian, and the two of them spoke one by one Pull Liu Shi and move forward.
Walking back to the market, Duoduo's mother and daughter started shopping. The last time Mrs. Liu came alone, she didn't buy too many things. It was because she had no money. The money given by the third grandmother's family should be saved. .
So this time, Duo Duo bought ten catties of rice, thirty catties of brown rice, ten catties of white * noodles, and three catties of brown rice noodles. Duo Duo bought this way to improve the food for everyone occasionally. When he wanted to buy the fine grains, Mrs. Liu was still a little hesitant. After all, the whole village, except the head of the village, only had fine grains when the two grandchildren came back. Otherwise, everyone would eat coarse grains on weekdays, and The rice costs [-] cents a tendon, and the brown rice is only [-] cents. This ten catties of rice is enough to buy a lot of brown rice, so Mrs. Liu disagrees.
It's just that when she saw her son's yearning appearance and her daughter's sensibility, she agreed as soon as she gritted her teeth. The reason for making money is not for the health of the children. If you don't eat well, how can you be healthy? Ah, what's more, the two of them earned the money by themselves. There is no reason to disagree. In the end, the family unanimously agreed to buy these things, and finally asked the store to deliver them directly to the carriage they had agreed with Wan. Because for a while, the Liu mother and daughter would rather not buy other things. Apart from the inconvenience of carrying so many things, they also couldn't carry them.
Rice is 240 Wen a catty, 150 Jin is 650 Wen, brown rice is [-] Wen a catty, [-] Jin is [-] Wen, white * noodles is [-] Wen a catty, [-] Jin is [-] Wen, brown rice noodles It is five Wen a catty, and thirty Jin is [-] Wen, so the total is [-] Wen. Duo Duo first took out one and a half taels and a little more broken silver from her bosom, and then took out five coins from the scattered copper coins. Ten coins to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper in that store was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. You must know that the three daughters of Duoduo can be regarded as the big buyers here. There are really few mothers and daughters who buy these, not to mention, seeing that the mother and daughter are all wearing patched clothes, I really didn't expect to be able to buy these, so after the shopkeeper received the money, he was very happy. Zhou Dao said, don't worry, Madam, I will send the little girl to you in a while, if you haven't arrived yet, I will let him wait for you there for a while: "Zhuzi, come here, you have to remember This lady, miss, and young master, if you can't see anyone, just wait there for me!"
Who is the shopkeeper? He is a fine person. He is talking to someone. Seeing such a big customer as Mrs. Liu, his mouth is so sweet.But Mrs. Liu was very uncomfortable with the address of Mrs. Madam, so she could only blushed and said, "Then please trouble the shopkeeper, let's go first!" Then he dragged Duo Duo and Lan Qian away.
************************************************** ******************************
As soon as they went outside, the two children started giggling. Liu Wo turned her face and glared at them. She knew that they were laughing at herself, but after so many years, no one really Calling her Madam, she felt sad again when she thought of this. After she married into Lan's family, there were only a handful of people who came to the market.
"What are you laughing at? We're just married to Zhuang. Why isn't my wife a wife? You two sisters are still laughing at me! Let's go buy meat, and if we go late, there will be nothing left!" The younger brother said with a very uncomfortable smile.
"Mom, before we go to buy meat, let's go buy some rulers. Our mothers only wear clothes for each of us. We don't even have a replacement. We have to wash them at night and dry them the next morning. Wear it again, and there are a lot of patches on this clothes, let's go to the shop and buy a few chitou (cloth is called a chitou in the Sanli shop!" Doesn't Duo Duo dislike the patch on this clothes, think about the previous paragraph They don't even have food in their days, so they don't have the mood to think about what to wear, but it's different now. Now that they have this condition, they can't treat themselves badly. Duo Duo is not a miser.
"Okay, let's make a whole body for you and your brother. Mother won't do it. In another month, the weather will be cold. At that time, our family will have to buy some cotton to make cotton clothes. Then mother will do it again. Mom, let's deal with wearing this clothes first!" Liu felt that the child's clothes were really torn, but this one on her was fine.
"Mother, let's buy one for each of us. We're not buying silk and satin. We're just buying rulers worn by ordinary Zhuang married people. They don't cost much. That's all. Let's buy them alone." All in one!" Dodo persuaded Liu Shi, and finally she made a decision.
Without any explanation, Dodo dragged Mrs. Liu to Buzhuang.
As soon as I entered the cloth shop, I saw that the colorful cloths of various grades were placed in different places. In front of the counter in the middle, there were piles of scattered, cloth ends and the like.
"I can introduce to you what kind of rulers the guests need, but if you don't mind, the pile of cloth heads is also very good, and you can make some small clothes for children!" I saw the owner of this shop. The little guy didn't treat them coldly because of their shabby clothes, but instead introduced some cheap cloth heads to them.
"Brother, we want to buy a few feet. It doesn't need to be too good, just fine linen. Do we have it in our store?" Mrs. Liu asked when she saw that the guy was very friendly.
"Yes, yes, elder sister, look, how about these few horses?" The man saw that he was not interested in cloth heads, and asked for coarse linen ruler heads by name, so he hugged a few ruler heads over eagerly.
Dodo fell in love with the maroon one at a glance, she thought it was suitable for her mother to make clothes, shopkeeper, how do you sell this horse head?Zhuang married people usually only make clothes for the upper body, so a few feet is enough, but this time Douduo wanted to make a set for her mother, so she asked how much a piece of cloth cost.
"Little girl, you have a good eye. The fabric of this maroon linen is very good, thick, and the color is just right for this elder sister. It is not old-fashioned or ostentatious. The head of this horse is sixty coins!" The boy said with a smile.
"Duo'er, why do you buy so much? You can use a five-foot piece of cloth to make your mother a double-breasted jacket. You don't need to make a whole body!" Liu said hurriedly, waving her hands.
In fact, who doesn't love beauty among women, but Mrs. Liu is a mother. She thinks she can eat and wear whatever she likes, but her children must eat well and dress well. If the family has that condition Well, who wouldn't want to wear gold belts and silver by herself, but the current family conditions don't allow her to waste them at all.
"Mom, you don't even have a decent waist skirt, and your trousers are so old that they can't be worn any more. Listen to me and just buy one. The money will be paid for by Qian'er and me to buy medicine chrysanthemums. Both honor you."
"Yes, mother, you can buy it. My sister and I honor you. Brother, we want this piece of cloth!" Lan Qian also persuaded Mrs. Liu, and finally made a decision to want this piece of cloth up.
"Oh, big sister, you are so lucky, these two children are really sensible, you just buy it!" The man said to Mrs. Liu, while letting out the purplish red cloth.
"Brother, give me five feet of purple cloth, and five feet of navy blue cloth. You can give me some money for this price, so that we will come here often in the future, right?" " Dodo thinks that Zhuang is married and has to work every day, so she can't buy too light-colored fabrics, otherwise it's too unsuitable, so she pointed to the two darker-colored fabrics that are not too old-fashioned and said. .
************************************************** ******************************
"Sister, these two pieces are so beautiful!" Lan Qian has never worn new clothes since he was born, and they are all remade from old clothes, so when he is about to have his own clothes, Lan Qian is excited again .
"Little girl, these two pieces of cloth are worth seven Wen a foot, the five feet are 35 Wen, the two five feet are 130 Wen, plus the 120 Wen that the eldest sister just bought, the total is [-] Wen , you bought so much at one time, I will give you ten cents cheaper, let’s count it as [-] cents, but little girl, you will come to my house to buy cloth in the future!” The boy very readily wiped the cloth for Duoduo and the others. After paying ten Wen, he realized that among the three people, it was the little girl who had the final say, so he said the last words to Duo Duo.
"Okay, but brother, how do you sell that pile of cloth? I want to buy some!" Duo Duo just looked carefully. Although the pile of cloth is broken, it is still good for making small clothes. The fabric should be softer, so that it is comfortable to wear next to the body, and if it is too small, you can cut a few handkerchiefs, whether it is for yourself or as a gift, it is very practical, the third grandma and Wan Shi treats them well, but I can't afford to give them good things, and it's not a good idea to give them square handkerchiefs.
"Hey, you can pick whatever you want, and just give me some money if you choose." Those cloth heads, even if they don't give money, can be given to them for free, anyway, they are all scraps of cloth. People from rich families look down on them, and country people are too busy with these materials, which are too expensive, so this cloth head has been piled up here for a long time.
Regarding Dodo's proposal this time, Mrs. Liu did not stop it, because now she felt that her daughter had a very strong idea, and she was very relieved, so she let Dodo choose.
Dodo walked over to the cloth head, picking it out, and making calculations in her heart.The first is white cotton muslin, which needs to be selected more. The three of them need to add at least one set of small clothes and two pairs of socks.And my mother knows how to cut, needle, thread and embroider, not to mention, so just buy the fabric and let her mother take the time to sew it. If you make good use of it, you will find a bargain. The smaller ones are used to sew socks, and the small clothes for her and Lan Qian. The big ones are just for her mother. With a plan in mind, Duo Duo carefully pick.
Oh, not to mention, these silks, satins, and silks are so beautiful.Even Dodo, who is from modern times, thinks these materials are good-looking. She picked up two pieces of satin and looked at them. The size is just right for making handkerchiefs. She thought that the third grandma and Wan Shi would definitely like them. There is a silk veil, which is incredible.
"Mother, how about making handkerchiefs for the third grandma and the little aunt with these few pieces?" Duo Duo picked up the two pieces of material and said to Mrs. Liu.
After speaking, Dodo went on to pick out a piece of pea-green and a piece of light-yellow spun silk, and another piece of silver-red plain satin, and put everything she wanted aside. Sapphire blue plain satin, one piece of moon-white Lu silk, one piece of indigo Lu silk, and two pieces of light blue Lu silk.
Not to mention that Duoduo likes these, even Liu, who is used to frugality, can't help but like these colorful materials, "Your third grandma and your little aunt will definitely like it, my Duo'er The selected material will definitely look good when made into a handkerchief. I can hem the edges and embroider flowers. But, Duo Duo, you don’t need so much even as a gift.” Although it doesn’t cost much, if you choose too much, I’m afraid It's people who won't let themselves lose it.
"Mother, it's okay, I'll ask my little brother to give us a little cheaper, or else he'll keep these cloth heads here, why not sell them to us, I'll choose these to be useful, and I'll have to buy some more colored threads later , the embroidered handkerchief will be very beautiful." Duoduo has her own plan in mind, but she doesn't plan to tell Liu now.
Sure enough, shopping is a woman's nature. After such a short time, Duo Duo actually bought a large bag of cloth heads, Liu Shi was a little sweaty looking at it, and looked at the young man awkwardly.
"Little girl, you have good eyesight. Which of the few pieces of material you chose is not a good one? How about this? Let's make a point first. You don't need to give me more for this bag of cloth. Just give me five cents. In the future, you will be short of money." Just buy more of what you need, and we also come in for a new batch of this cloth head every half a month, so come if you need it!" The young man didn't sit on the ground and raise the price, but said very earnestly.
Once the update is over, are you still satisfied with the big fat chapter of this update?Hohohoho, today I decided to update [-] words, so my dear friends also give their support. I beg: bookmark, recommend, leave a message, and reward a one-stop service. Everyone, I will continue to code words.
Since it is the autumn harvest season now, the market twice in seven days has been changed to once in ten days. Therefore, no matter how busy everyone is in the market now, one person will go to the town to buy some daily necessities something.
And the people in Sanli Shop have always been thrifty and down-to-earth, mainly because of poverty, so when most people go, there are very few people who take a carriage, unless they have something to sell at the market, they will be cruel. Pay two pennies to take a carriage.
But most of the people who went to the market chose to walk. No, when Duoduo and others went out, they saw people from the village walking towards the town in pairs one after another.
"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Lan? Why are you going to the market? Seeing that you have taken so many things, why don't you think about taking a ride? That's right, she was kicked out by her mother-in-law just now, and she brought the child again It’s going to be a hard time to get out of the house!” The person who spoke was Widow Li from Sanli Shop, if you want to say who Widow Li is most jealous of and hates the most, it must be the Liu family, because the same A widow, but she has the support of her husband's family and a pair of children, but she has nothing and lives alone. The most important thing is that Liu's appearance is a hundred times stronger than her. This made her very uncomfortable.
"What's the matter with you if you don't take a car? Besides, why is it difficult for my sister-in-law Guanghui and her two sons and daughters? It's you, hmph! Just take care of yourself if you have nothing to do, and don't talk about others when you have nothing to do!" She just lowered her head and kept silent, but Wan Shi couldn't help it. Wan Shi has always been a straightforward woman with a simple and straightforward mind.
"What kind of onion are you? What's the matter with you? What's the matter with me? I don't have children. It's because my man died early. Now that you are you, you have been married for a few years. Isn't it still nothing? What a joke, Do you still have the face to criticize me?" Widow Li said in an ugly way, and walked away twisting the waist of her bucket after speaking.
"You..." Wan Shi was about to go crazy.
"Okay, what do you usually see with her? People in our village don't know who she is, okay, don't be angry!" said the aunt of the Liu family who lived next to the third grandma. So no one in the village disliked her, so they came out to persuade her at this time.
"I just can't stand her frivolous look! Bah!" Wan Shi also yelled in the direction of Widow Li.
"Miss Duoduo, you have been going up the mountain every day to pick the wild flowers and the things that are drying on the house. Could it be that Li Erniu in our village ate the poisoned things? What are you going to do? Don't blame your aunt Mind your own business, that thing is going to eat the dead!" Aunt Liu and the third grandma's house are only separated by a wall, and in a place like this in the countryside, how can it be that kind of high wall, it's just a low wall to separate the yards of each house That's all, besides, it's such a small village, if someone has something strange every day, everyone in the village will know it the next day.
And Duoduo, the mother and daughter, have been going up to the mountains every day to pick wild flowers and poisonous things since they separated. Mrs. Lan was kicked out by the old lady Lan and was stimulated. Some said that they sold it for money, and some said that they were so poor and crazy that they thought of making money in this way. There was a lot of discussion.
Aunt Liu, who went to the market together today, kindly reminded them.
"Auntie, it was made by that kid Dodo. That black thing is called fungus. It's delicious. My father and mother have tasted it. It's not poisonous at all. If you want to say, that kid Dodo is smart and knows How to eat, some people, she must not follow suit, even if she wants to eat, she can't eat it, but not everyone is as smart as Duo Duo, if the time comes, if the food is poisoned, You can blame others, we don't take the responsibility!" Mrs. Liu did not make a sound, but Mrs. Wan took over the words and said, but this Mrs. Wan is also very smart, although Duo Duo has already told them how to deal with it method, but Wan didn't say it in public, and she saw that some people had already listened to Grandma Liu's question and wanted to hear what happened, so Wan didn't forget to hit everyone's head thought.
"There's another thing like this, so it's a good thing, Duo Duo is such a good boy, so the life of the three of them, mother and daughter, will be easier, right?" Aunt Liu also said happily.At this time, she had no idea what the value of the fungus was.
Duo Duo and Lan Qian just rolled their eyes together and kept a low profile as much as possible, because now they are full of thoughts about whether these things can be sold for a price.
Everyone didn't talk about the commonplace at this time, because everyone wanted to save time, and everyone was walking on a bumpy path.So everyone is carefully watching the road under their feet, and they are no longer short by the east and the west.
It took about two quarters of an hour for them to arrive at the market, and Duoduo's feet ached from walking.Dodo couldn't help thinking to herself, even though she is thin and small, her body is really good. If this is in modern times, how can she walk for so long!
As soon as she entered the market, Dodo couldn't help but look around curiously. Even though it is a market, it is only two streets away!No, it should be said to be one street, because the terrain here is uneven, one side is high and the other is low, resulting in the phenomenon of two streets.The houses on the street face each other in two rows, and the houses facing the street are all shops, some selling groceries, cloth, rouge and gouache, and restaurants and noodle shops, etc.
The sale of those farm bulk goods is in the middle of the two rows of houses, on the upper and lower streets.This street has no end here, not because the street is too long, but because the houses are built according to the mountain, so there are inevitable twists and turns...
************************************************** **************************************************
Dodo originally thought that the market in this small town should not be too big, but she never expected that the market would be so prosperous.
But if you think about it carefully, the people who come to this town to go to the market are not only people from their own village, but people from many villages also come to the market one after another, not to mention that the market that was originally held twice a week is now once every ten days. And it should be.
Duoduo and his three mothers first made an appointment with Wan Shi to go back together, where to wait, then found a place selling bulk goods from farmers, first opened the bag of fungus, and then put The cold fungus prepared in the morning was also taken out, and there were many small bamboo sticks cut by Lan Guanglei on the fungus. At that time, everyone asked Duo Duo, why do you want these small bamboo sticks, and Duo Duo said yes. Everyone used it for tasting. At that time, the third grandma was still very worried. What if they let others taste it and they don’t buy it?Didn't they lose it?
But Duo Duo said, you may have seen this fungus when it was fresh, but it was poisoned by people, but you have never seen this kind of dried fungus. If you don’t get some for everyone to taste, Then who would buy it? Later, when everyone thought about it, this was the case, but the third grandfather who had eaten the fungus yelled in distress.
At this time, after Duoduo arranged the fungus and tastes they were going to sell, the number of people on this episode gradually increased. Mrs. Liu was shy, but just stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. Okay, and Lan Qian was still a child, and he was standing aside rubbing his hands, not knowing what to do.
"Fresh fungus, you can eat it with cold salad, or you can eat it with arguing. Everyone who is passing by, uncles, aunts, and grandmas, come and taste it. It is free of charge. If you eat it well, Also, please weigh some and take it home to taste!" Nene shouted at the top of his voice.
Seeing that his sister was yelling so funny, Lan Qian also yelled along with her, only Liu's cheeks blushed uncontrollably.
"Mother, you can just weigh the scale in a while, you don't need to shout!" Seeing Liu's tangled look, Dodo opened her mouth to help her.
"Alas!" As expected, Mrs. Liu happily agreed when she heard her daughter say this.
Maybe it was the cries that attracted everyone, or the free tasting attracted everyone, but in short, several people gathered around and asked, "How do you sell this fungus thing? Can you try it first? It doesn't cost money." ?” A 60-year-old lady opened her mouth and asked.
"Auntie, this fungus costs 100 Wen and one tael!" Nene said with a sweet smile.
"Yo, I'm still an aunt, I can be your grandma!" The old lady was very happy when she was called an aunt by the little girl.
"How can my aunt be my grandma at such a young age? My grandma is over 50, but how does my aunt look like someone in her early forties!" Duo Duo said sweetly.
"This kid's little mouth is so sweet. I'm 58 this year, so I'm still in my early forties!" Although he retorted, the smile on his face didn't diminish at all.
"It's just that little girl, what kind of precious thing are you? The green vegetables are only one tael for a hundred renminbi, and the pork is only fifteen renminbi a catty, which is too expensive! This one hundred renminbi How much pork can I buy?" the old lady said seriously.
The ancients, especially the country people, didn't know the way of keeping in good health at all, and in their opinion, no matter how delicious this dish is, how can it taste better than that meat?So when everyone heard the price, it was a sky-high price, and they all shook their heads and talked about it.
"Auntie, don't underestimate these two. You can eat a meal if you grab this handful, whether it's fried with eggs, fried with meat, or fried like me. This kind of cold salad tastes very good, you can try it first, if it is not delicious, you don’t have to buy it, this winter is coming soon, every day is cabbage, sauerkraut, potato, and there are no other dishes, more clothes Ah, and this fungus can be stored for a long time, as long as you eat it, soak it in water, and then wash it, it will become so soft, auntie, you should try it first!" Saying, Duo Duo used The old lady tied a small piece of the thin bamboo stick.
In fact, when discussing how much this fungus sells at home, everyone is surprised at Duo Duo’s asking price. In their minds, they also feel that this will not work. Pork and fish are only how much a catty. It's delicious, but it's just a vegetable. They thought that no one would buy it. They were dumbfounded when Duoduo just grabbed a handful of fungus and mixed it on a plate. Well, if it is this catty of fungus, if you save it, it is possible to eat it for a whole winter. After all, there are few vegetables in winter, and those rich and big families will spend high prices to transport them here. The people in the village can only be willing to spend some money to buy a little green vegetables when they are in the early years, so after Duo Duo's analysis, they feel that it is feasible to sell them for one or two catties.
Sure enough, the people around today had the same thoughts as the third grandma and the others, so Duo Duo explained to them.
"Oh, it's really tender and refreshing. It's really delicious. Girl, you mean it can be fried and eaten. Can it be eaten with eggs or meat? Can it be as refreshing as cold salad?" The old lady said. After tasting the taste, I was full of praise, and at the same time, I also made sure that it was delicious even if it was fried.
"Of course, this fungus is also delicious when fried. The most important thing is that as long as you grab a handful of this thing, you can have a meal. When will it be a dish on our dinner table? Don’t you think so, auntie!” Dodo’s mouthful and auntie calls were very kind, which already made the old lady happy, not to mention that she had eaten such delicious food, so she stomped her feet and gritted her teeth .
"Weigh five taels for me. Buy it back for my son and daughter-in-law to taste. If it's ready, I'll buy it again!" After finishing speaking, he counted a string of five hundred taels from his pocket Handed the copper coin to Duo Duo.
You know, these five taels of fungus are worth five hundred Wen. For country people, this five Wen can be spent for a month. If some people save some flowers, they can spend half a year. Well, this old lady must have a good family, so she bought it for [-] Wen.
************************************************** ******************************
"Okay, then you're ready to eat, but come to buy again, this thing can be stored, as long as it is not placed in a dry place, it will be fine for a year or so, mother, hurry up, give it to this aunt My son weighed five taels tall!" After taking the money with her hand, Duoduo counted it, put it in the pocket she had prepared, and put it into her bosom.
"Oh! Good! Good!" Mrs. Liu heard that they bought five taels as soon as they bought it, and she was so excited that she was dumbfounded. It was Duo Duo who called her over, and she hurriedly weighed the high five taels for him. Pass it to others.
"Here, this is the first one for my aunt, I will add some more for my aunt!" As he said, he grabbed a few more yuan and put it in for the old lady.
This made the old lady laugh, you know this thing is expensive, one tael costs a hundred Wen, but this girl asked her mother to weigh her high, and this time she caught some , how can she not be happy.
"This little girl really knows how to do business. Come on, I said, sisters, you should try it too. This food is really delicious. Everyone buy some and go back and try it. We are so old, why don't we just try it?" Isn't it fresh?" Sure enough, this person is short-mouthed and short-handed, and at this moment, the old lady invited her old sisters to come and taste and buy some back, so as to Hug back Duo Duo's cuteness.
"Hey, girl from the Zhang family, is this really that delicious? Then I have to try it. You are famous for your tricky mouth! Little girl, give me a piece!"
"And I!"
"Let's try it too, it looks delicious!"
"..."
After the lady's publicity, not only the old lady's old sisters, but even the onlookers wanted to try it one after another, and Duo Duo handed it to them with a smile.
"Weigh two liang for me. I don't have much money today. Buy it and try it first. Come back after eating!"
"Call me two taels..."
"Weigh me three or two..."
"..." After everyone tasted it, they were all full of praise, and asked to buy some back for the family to taste.
After a while, all the more than two catties of fungus they brought were sold out. Of course, there were still a lot of unpurchased ones. They were very disappointed and said that they would sell them again next time and so on.
As for the reason why I didn’t bring too many to sell, one is because I don’t know if people in the town will recognize it, because it’s not cheap after all, and the other is because there are so many people coming and going in the town, selling too many It's not good for money to be targeted by others. They are orphans and widows, so they are weak.
When the crowd dispersed and Duo Duo was packing up the empty bags, Lan Qian and Liu Shi couldn't recover for a long time, they were giggling and standing there blankly. After selling it for two liang of silver, the extra money was added to the scales. You must know that if the two liang of silver were in ordinary people's household, it would be a year's expenses. How could they not be excited.
"Mother, Qian'er, let's go to the embroidery workshop now. After going to the embroidery workshop, we still have to go to the pharmacy. There is not much time left, and we will meet up with my aunt in a while!" Duoduo stood up and put her hand on the The smirking two people shook their eyes and said.
"Ah! That's right, let's go quickly!" Now Liu's brows and eyes are full of smiles.
"Sister, I still feel like I'm dreaming now, our fungus has earned so much money!" Lan Qian said in a low voice with his big eyes already laughing into crescents.
"Qian'er, you want it. When you go back later, you can't tell others how much money we have earned. If others have malicious intentions, it will be bad. Remember not to reveal the money! "Duoduo thought that she would take a ride when she went back later, because she was going to reward everyone. First of all, she must improve her food, so when she saw what they bought, some people would definitely ask curiously. Everyone knows that after selling for so much money, those jealous people may have some ideas.
Fortunately, she has the foresight. These days, she took everyone to pick all the fungus and brought them home. What does she mean by earning money? I can’t say how selfish Dodo is, but after all, she is the first person to lead them to eat fungus. Since she is a leader, she must enjoy the privileges of the first year. As for the future Of course, she won't monopolize it, and it's impossible for those individuals in the village to monopolize it. She just can't figure it out now. The fungus is only on a dozen dead trees. It seems that someone deliberately Planted, but why no one knows how to eat it?
"I know, sister, I won't say it!" Seeing her sister's serious and pensive look, Lan Qian nodded seriously and replied.
Seeing what the two sisters and younger brothers were whispering, Liu looked around, then whispered in Duo'er's ear, "Duo'er, you have to collect the money, don't let anyone Let's go!"
"Mother, don't worry, but you have to do what you promised your daughter!" Duo Duo winked at Liu Shi mysteriously.
"... Alas!" Mrs. Liu responded in a very embarrassed way.
Lan Qian first looked at his sister, then at his mother, but neither of them responded to him, so he had no choice but to follow behind them.
The three mother and daughter walked through a street before reaching the embroidery shop street in the market. They said it was a embroidery shop street because there were more than one embroidery shop in the market.Think about the reason why many peasant women rely on needlework to make money!
As soon as Mrs. Liu arrived at the embroidery shop, she called out "Sister Wang", and saw a woman who was about the same age as Mrs. Liu came out, probably because she didn't do farm work, the woman's cheeks looked paler and cleaner. In other words, Mrs. Liu looked even older, Duoduo secretly thought that she must help her mother improve in the future.
************************************************** ***********************************
"Sister Liu is here. How about the embroidery work? How much are you going to take this time?" I have to say that the boss is very satisfied with Liu's embroidery work. They had to try their hands first, but she was very satisfied with Mr. Liu's embroidery skills, and Mr. Liu didn't ask for extravagant prices, so she liked it very much.
"Sister Wang, what do you think of these embroidery works, and these five ties, look at them all, are you satisfied?" Mrs. Liu spread out her burden and showed those embroidery works to Sister Wang.
"I can trust your embroidery work, ah! What kind of pattern is this, so unique?" Sister Wang picked out the Chinese knot made by Duo Duo from the five ties.
"This is called a concentric knot, and it was created by my girl herself. I just want to talk to you about it this time!" Mrs. Liu looked at Duo Duo first, and then opened her mouth to her as if she had made up her mind. Said Miss Wang, the owner of an embroidery shop.
"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Based on Sister Wang's experience over the years, what Mrs. Liu wants to say is probably not good for her.
"It's me, girl. She loves my eyes and doesn't plan to let me do any more embroidery work. Therefore, after I send this embroidery work, I don't plan to take any more embroidery work. Also, when you see this net Well, we can continue to weave this net, but the girl said that it is quite troublesome to weave, if Sister Wang is satisfied with looking at it, she can increase it for us..."
It can be said that Mrs. Liu finished this passage with her eyes closed. In her heart, Sister Wang helped her when she was most short of money, but now she is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. It is really unethical, but her own daughter is Said that this is called an exchange of equal value, and she didn't know exactly what it meant, but in short, it meant that it was basically equal, and there was no one to say sorry to anyone.
"Oh? Then how much do you plan to raise?" The owner of the embroidery shop was in business after all, and asked without any displeasure.
"Hmm... From the previous nine Wen coins... from the previous nine Wen coins... to twenty Wen coins each!" Stuttered Liu, she even dared not look into Sister Wang's eyes.
"Bang!" He slapped the table.
Frightened, Mrs. Liu stood up from her chair and looked at the owner of the embroidery shop anxiously.
"Okay, that's it. But, you have to be sure, you can only call my family, and you can't spread it. If it spreads, then..." The owner of the embroidery shop is also a person, of course she can predict it. The future value of this net, she is not that short-sighted person, so she agreed immediately, but she had to say the ugly words up front, so as to save unnecessary trouble in the future.
"Aunt Wang, in fact, if I promise you, I won't assign it to other families, and you won't be at ease. Why don't we think of a way to get the best of both worlds? What do you think? Save it until the end, and we will break up!" Duo Duo Knowing that the owner of the embroidery shop is a smart person, he didn't hide from her.
"Oh? Little girl, how can you have the best of both worlds?" The owner of the embroidery shop noticed early on that among the three of them, it was the little girl who got the final say. When she was young, she kept looking at her daughter, so the owner of the embroidery shop really wanted to see what the little girl had in mind.
"Aunt Wang, I can teach you the method of weaving nets only. From now on, you will be the only one who will do it. Moreover, we need to sign an agreement, so that you can put your heart in your stomach!" Dodo said with a smile.
"Oh? Then how much are you going to sell me for this method?" The embroidery shop owner fell in love with this clever little girl even more.
"Only five taels of silver!" God, please forgive her, she had no choice but to exchange other people's hard work for money, and she didn't sell too much. She added originality to this sympathy knot. Stealth learning, I am afraid it will not succeed.
When Duo Duo mentioned five taels of silver, the owner of the embroidery shop didn't say anything, but Liu Shi and Lan Qian suddenly stood up again and looked at Duo Duo.
"Little girl, the price you want is a bit high?" the embroidery shop owner said tentatively.
"Aunt Wang, do you really think it's high? Five taels of silver, you bought this method, you know, if I make it myself, a net is 10 yuan, and 200 nets are [-] yuan, and I can finish this thing in a quarter of an hour, think about it, if I really make it up by myself, how much can I earn in a day, how much can I earn in a month, and how much can I earn in a year?"
"I'm not afraid to tell you that our family has a lot of work to do, and this thing is very tiring to the eyes. You also know that we country people, at night, the weak light hurts the eyes very much. That's why I don't let it The reason why my mother does embroidery is why I want to sell you this method, if you think it is expensive, then forget it!" Dodo said very sincerely, and finally waved her hands.
"Oh, sister Liu, how did you give birth to such a clever little ghost? You are so smart. Well, just as you said, I bought your concentric knot method. Let's set up one now. Write it down." The owner of the embroidery shop readily agreed.
In this way, the two sides established a written agreement. At Duo Duo's request, the five taels of silver, plus Duo Duo took out the two thousand copper coins that sold her fungus, and asked the embroidery shop owner to exchange it for her. A total of seven taels of broken silver is much more convenient to carry, and the embroidery work earned a total of 45 Wen, and the five nets were collected at nine Wen each, so the net money was only 75 Wen, totaling [-] Wen coins, Duo Duo is the copper coin he wants.
After Duoduo pressed her fingerprints to handle everything, Liu Shi and Lan Qian were still stunned. In Liu Shi's own words later, she didn't know how she got out of the embroidery shop at that time.
After leaving the embroidery shop, Liu Shi and Lan Qian regained their composure. They had bright smiles on their faces. Liu Shi has never seen so much seven taels of silver in his whole life. How could he not be happy? .
"Duo Duo, shall we go to the pharmacy next? If you want me to say that this money is also earned, we still have so many fungus in our family, which is enough for us mother and daughter to live, and your wild flowers don't know how to do it." No, don't let the people from the pharmacy kick us out, that would be bad!" After all, Mrs. Liu just didn't believe that wild chrysanthemum could cure diseases, and if it was really a medicine, she would give it to people What should I do if it is broken?
************************************************** ************************************************
Ms. Liu is still a traditional peasant woman from the bottom of her heart. What she hopes is enough food and money, and the family is safe and sound. She doesn't need to be rich, she just wants everyone to be healthy, so for Duo Duo to sell Herbs, she was very worried.
"Mother, don't you believe me about the fungus? Don't worry!" Duoduo said coquettishly, pulling Liu's arm.
"Yeah, mother, you just trust my sister once, I think my sister's matter will definitely happen!" Lan Qian said with narrowed eyes and a smile, holding Liu's other arm and shaking it.
"Both of you, that's fine, mother will follow you, let's go quickly, and we will buy some things to go back later!" After the last time, they started fighting alone, and they didn't eat with the third grandma's family. When the third grandma's family made delicious food, they would bring it to them, so the ten catties of rice and ten catties of noodles were eaten at this fair. Why should I buy more this time when I go back.
With the support of Mrs. Liu, the three of them walked to the medicine shop. The medicine shop was just down the street from the embroidered shop, so they arrived at the medicine shop in a short time.
I saw that the interior layout of this Qishantang pharmacy is roughly a counter on the left, with Chinese herbal medicines placed behind the counter, and a place for doctors to sit on the inside on the right. At the moment, some patients are sitting against the right wall .
The pharmacy is small, but clean and tidy.Suddenly came a kindly question: "Excuse me, are you taking medicine or seeing a doctor?"
When Duoduo heard the sound and turned around, she saw a man of about twenty who looked like an apprentice, lying in front of the counter and watching them.
"Brother, does your pharmacy accept powdered medicine?" Dodo asked very politely.
"We collect loose medicine here, do you have any medicine in your hand?" Although this young man was a little funny, there are three people here, two children, and a village woman, what medicine can they have in their hands, but, The master once told them that people should not be judged by their appearance, and they must be polite to every guest, so this little guy didn't treat them slowly in the slightest.
Duoduo put the cloth bag in his hand on the counter, untied the cloth bag, and the boy took a handful of medicinal chrysanthemums from inside and spread them out in his hand to have a look, the color was bright and bright, but the color was excellent.A few traces of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he put the medicinal chrysanthemum under his nose and smelled it. The fragrance of orange blossoms should be quite a bit - this is unexpected that this family knows how to handle medicinal materials...
The little guy thought about it, and then looked at Blossom with a slightly probing look.Duoduo responded calmly, but she was so anxious that Liu Shi and Lan Qian were in a state of turmoil. Seeing the young man who was silent for a long time, just looking at them, they felt a little nervous. Nervous and scared, after all, this is a medicinal material, if it is not eaten well, it will eat dead people, so when they saw this guy's probing gaze, their hearts hung in their throats, for fear that he would say something as soon as he opened his mouth. bad.
But now Dodo is full of confidence. She meets the probing gaze and smiles slightly, because judging from the boy's reaction just now, the medicine should be qualified. How much is it.
Seeing how nervous Liu Shi and Lan Qian were, Dodo asked, "How about it, do you accept it?"
"Oh, little girl, just wait a moment, I'll go to the back and ask the master, I'm just an apprentice now, some things I can't decide!" The boy said politely.
"Okay then, go and ask, we'll wait here, but please hurry up, because we have to go shopping later!" Dodo said.
"Okay, my mother is coming back!" After saying that, the boy disappeared in a flash.
"Duo'er, is there anything wrong? I think that little brother's complexion is not kind!" Mrs. Liu asked Douduo, pulling her aside.
"Mother, it's okay, just put your heart in your stomach!" Dodo pushed Liu Shi onto the chair, and waited patiently.
Sure enough, after a while, the little guy in the shop happily came out of the backyard with the medicinal materials, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Several, just now the master said that your medicine is not only good in quality, but also specially treated. Yes, and this medicine is handled well regardless of the heat and sunlight, it is a rare good medicine, so our pharmacy accepted it."
"Brother, is it true? Is this really a medicine? Can it really cure a disease?" Liu finally let go of the breath she had just been holding, but still wanted to confirm it again.
"Of course, this is an excellent medicinal material!" The boy said cheerfully.
"Then, little brother, how much do you plan to charge?" Dodo finally asked what she was most concerned about.
The little guy casually brought the abacus over, and while flipping the abacus, he muttered: "You have processed this medicinal chrysanthemum, and it is also an excellent variety, so our shopkeeper said, I will give you fifty cents a piece." Jin, you all have three catties and two taels, so how about a total of 160 Wen?"
"What? It costs fifty Wen a catty? Is it true? Is it true?" Mrs. Liu never imagined that the small wild flowers all over the mountains and plains could be sold for money. ah?So very happy.
"Yes, if you agree, I will pay you the money!" the little boy asked Xun.He thought to himself, this family is really interesting, the person who is called mother is so happy, but the daughter is so calm and composed.
But Duo Duo yelled in her heart that it was worthless, as expected, the fungus was the most profitable, and once the wild chrysanthemum was processed, there was not much at all. Forget it, it was not too much as she expected, so let’s sell it, anyway, this is also Something that costs nothing.
"Okay then, little brother, let's sell it, you pay for it!" Dodo said with a smile.
The guy handed the prepared 150 copper plates to Dodo and said: "Little sister, if you have other good medicines next time, don't forget to bring them to us. We will definitely give them to you." I will give you the highest price!"
************************************************** *************************************************
"Okay! That little brother, let's go first!" Duo Duo, Liu Shi and others bid farewell to the young man and left.
"Sister, why am I still dreaming now? I never thought that the little wild chrysanthemum could be sold for money. When I go back, I still know a place where there are large fields of wild chrysanthemum!" Lan Qian narrowed his eyes and smiled, A catty of wild chrysanthemums can be sold for fifty cents, which is equivalent to money that fell from the sky. How could he be unhappy? In the past, before the family was separated, let alone fifty cents, he was a penny I haven't seen Qian before. The three of them, the mother and the son, have never even been to the fair. Generally, when there is such a good thing as going to the fair, the aunt brings Yu'er in a carriage. The three of them, the mother and the son, are only at home. It's a small job, but now, they have made money, they have money, so the smile on Xiao Lanqian's disheveled face has never been broken.
Looking at the malnourished appearance of a family of three, Duo Duo decided that the 75 Wen from the embroidery shop, plus the 150 Wen earned from selling small wild chrysanthemums, would be 220 and [-] Wen in total. Third grandma, for the rest, Duoduo is going to buy some more grain, because although it is autumn, the new grain will come soon, but the three of them, mother and child, have no land, and they will not have their share of the new grain, so They must prepare some food.
"Qian'er, you earned a lot of credit for earning this money. Tell your sister, what do you want?" Douduo saw the joy on Lan Qian's face and his thin body, Can't help but ask.
"Can I ask for anything?" Lan Qian looked at Mrs. Liu as he asked.
"Of course, anything is fine. This is Qian'er's own money. Even my mother, she will agree!" Duo Duo said with a smile.
"Then...then can you buy me a pen and a few Zhangs? I want to learn to write with brother Siyuan when I have time. He promised me before that he would teach me, sister, do you remember? No, it was when brother Siyuan taught you to write on the ground, he said that he would teach me when I was older!" Lan Qian's thin face was full of pleading, fearing that Duo Duo couldn't remember, but also A special reminder of the scene.
It turns out that she is still literate. If Lan Qian didn't tell her, she really wouldn't know, but Dodo was very happy to see her younger brother being so dedicated, because there was only Lan Qian in their family. If they are capable, their lives will not be too easy for their wives. Even if they do get married in the future, they will not be able to do without the support of their natal family, so she supports Lan Qian's idea very much.
"Then besides pen and paper, what else do you want? These two things don't count. Even if you don't ask sister, she will buy it for you. You are the only man in our family. Only you are strong. My mother and I You won't be bullied, and now you are doing your best, I am very happy!" Dodo said as she walked, holding Lan Qian's little hand.
"I...I..." Suddenly Lan Qian's little face turned red, and the shy me...I can't stop.
"Let me tell you for him, I'm afraid he wants to eat meat. Except for the Chinese New Year, you two can eat half a piece of meat, the rest is really..." As he spoke, Liu's eye circles turned red again , She has been blaming herself, if she had become stronger earlier, she would not have let these two children suffer such a big punishment.
"Is it okay, sister?" Lan Qian asked cautiously.
"Is there anything wrong with this? This is the money that we, Lan Qian, earn by ourselves. We can buy whatever we want. Let's go, let's go and buy food!" Dodo winked at Lan Qian, and the two of them spoke one by one Pull Liu Shi and move forward.
Walking back to the market, Duoduo's mother and daughter started shopping. The last time Mrs. Liu came alone, she didn't buy too many things. It was because she had no money. The money given by the third grandmother's family should be saved. .
So this time, Duo Duo bought ten catties of rice, thirty catties of brown rice, ten catties of white * noodles, and three catties of brown rice noodles. Duo Duo bought this way to improve the food for everyone occasionally. When he wanted to buy the fine grains, Mrs. Liu was still a little hesitant. After all, the whole village, except the head of the village, only had fine grains when the two grandchildren came back. Otherwise, everyone would eat coarse grains on weekdays, and The rice costs [-] cents a tendon, and the brown rice is only [-] cents. This ten catties of rice is enough to buy a lot of brown rice, so Mrs. Liu disagrees.
It's just that when she saw her son's yearning appearance and her daughter's sensibility, she agreed as soon as she gritted her teeth. The reason for making money is not for the health of the children. If you don't eat well, how can you be healthy? Ah, what's more, the two of them earned the money by themselves. There is no reason to disagree. In the end, the family unanimously agreed to buy these things, and finally asked the store to deliver them directly to the carriage they had agreed with Wan. Because for a while, the Liu mother and daughter would rather not buy other things. Apart from the inconvenience of carrying so many things, they also couldn't carry them.
Rice is 240 Wen a catty, 150 Jin is 650 Wen, brown rice is [-] Wen a catty, [-] Jin is [-] Wen, white * noodles is [-] Wen a catty, [-] Jin is [-] Wen, brown rice noodles It is five Wen a catty, and thirty Jin is [-] Wen, so the total is [-] Wen. Duo Duo first took out one and a half taels and a little more broken silver from her bosom, and then took out five coins from the scattered copper coins. Ten coins to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper in that store was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. You must know that the three daughters of Duoduo can be regarded as the big buyers here. There are really few mothers and daughters who buy these, not to mention, seeing that the mother and daughter are all wearing patched clothes, I really didn't expect to be able to buy these, so after the shopkeeper received the money, he was very happy. Zhou Dao said, don't worry, Madam, I will send the little girl to you in a while, if you haven't arrived yet, I will let him wait for you there for a while: "Zhuzi, come here, you have to remember This lady, miss, and young master, if you can't see anyone, just wait there for me!"
Who is the shopkeeper? He is a fine person. He is talking to someone. Seeing such a big customer as Mrs. Liu, his mouth is so sweet.But Mrs. Liu was very uncomfortable with the address of Mrs. Madam, so she could only blushed and said, "Then please trouble the shopkeeper, let's go first!" Then he dragged Duo Duo and Lan Qian away.
************************************************** ******************************
As soon as they went outside, the two children started giggling. Liu Wo turned her face and glared at them. She knew that they were laughing at herself, but after so many years, no one really Calling her Madam, she felt sad again when she thought of this. After she married into Lan's family, there were only a handful of people who came to the market.
"What are you laughing at? We're just married to Zhuang. Why isn't my wife a wife? You two sisters are still laughing at me! Let's go buy meat, and if we go late, there will be nothing left!" The younger brother said with a very uncomfortable smile.
"Mom, before we go to buy meat, let's go buy some rulers. Our mothers only wear clothes for each of us. We don't even have a replacement. We have to wash them at night and dry them the next morning. Wear it again, and there are a lot of patches on this clothes, let's go to the shop and buy a few chitou (cloth is called a chitou in the Sanli shop!" Doesn't Duo Duo dislike the patch on this clothes, think about the previous paragraph They don't even have food in their days, so they don't have the mood to think about what to wear, but it's different now. Now that they have this condition, they can't treat themselves badly. Duo Duo is not a miser.
"Okay, let's make a whole body for you and your brother. Mother won't do it. In another month, the weather will be cold. At that time, our family will have to buy some cotton to make cotton clothes. Then mother will do it again. Mom, let's deal with wearing this clothes first!" Liu felt that the child's clothes were really torn, but this one on her was fine.
"Mother, let's buy one for each of us. We're not buying silk and satin. We're just buying rulers worn by ordinary Zhuang married people. They don't cost much. That's all. Let's buy them alone." All in one!" Dodo persuaded Liu Shi, and finally she made a decision.
Without any explanation, Dodo dragged Mrs. Liu to Buzhuang.
As soon as I entered the cloth shop, I saw that the colorful cloths of various grades were placed in different places. In front of the counter in the middle, there were piles of scattered, cloth ends and the like.
"I can introduce to you what kind of rulers the guests need, but if you don't mind, the pile of cloth heads is also very good, and you can make some small clothes for children!" I saw the owner of this shop. The little guy didn't treat them coldly because of their shabby clothes, but instead introduced some cheap cloth heads to them.
"Brother, we want to buy a few feet. It doesn't need to be too good, just fine linen. Do we have it in our store?" Mrs. Liu asked when she saw that the guy was very friendly.
"Yes, yes, elder sister, look, how about these few horses?" The man saw that he was not interested in cloth heads, and asked for coarse linen ruler heads by name, so he hugged a few ruler heads over eagerly.
Dodo fell in love with the maroon one at a glance, she thought it was suitable for her mother to make clothes, shopkeeper, how do you sell this horse head?Zhuang married people usually only make clothes for the upper body, so a few feet is enough, but this time Douduo wanted to make a set for her mother, so she asked how much a piece of cloth cost.
"Little girl, you have a good eye. The fabric of this maroon linen is very good, thick, and the color is just right for this elder sister. It is not old-fashioned or ostentatious. The head of this horse is sixty coins!" The boy said with a smile.
"Duo'er, why do you buy so much? You can use a five-foot piece of cloth to make your mother a double-breasted jacket. You don't need to make a whole body!" Liu said hurriedly, waving her hands.
In fact, who doesn't love beauty among women, but Mrs. Liu is a mother. She thinks she can eat and wear whatever she likes, but her children must eat well and dress well. If the family has that condition Well, who wouldn't want to wear gold belts and silver by herself, but the current family conditions don't allow her to waste them at all.
"Mom, you don't even have a decent waist skirt, and your trousers are so old that they can't be worn any more. Listen to me and just buy one. The money will be paid for by Qian'er and me to buy medicine chrysanthemums. Both honor you."
"Yes, mother, you can buy it. My sister and I honor you. Brother, we want this piece of cloth!" Lan Qian also persuaded Mrs. Liu, and finally made a decision to want this piece of cloth up.
"Oh, big sister, you are so lucky, these two children are really sensible, you just buy it!" The man said to Mrs. Liu, while letting out the purplish red cloth.
"Brother, give me five feet of purple cloth, and five feet of navy blue cloth. You can give me some money for this price, so that we will come here often in the future, right?" " Dodo thinks that Zhuang is married and has to work every day, so she can't buy too light-colored fabrics, otherwise it's too unsuitable, so she pointed to the two darker-colored fabrics that are not too old-fashioned and said. .
************************************************** ******************************
"Sister, these two pieces are so beautiful!" Lan Qian has never worn new clothes since he was born, and they are all remade from old clothes, so when he is about to have his own clothes, Lan Qian is excited again .
"Little girl, these two pieces of cloth are worth seven Wen a foot, the five feet are 35 Wen, the two five feet are 130 Wen, plus the 120 Wen that the eldest sister just bought, the total is [-] Wen , you bought so much at one time, I will give you ten cents cheaper, let’s count it as [-] cents, but little girl, you will come to my house to buy cloth in the future!” The boy very readily wiped the cloth for Duoduo and the others. After paying ten Wen, he realized that among the three people, it was the little girl who had the final say, so he said the last words to Duo Duo.
"Okay, but brother, how do you sell that pile of cloth? I want to buy some!" Duo Duo just looked carefully. Although the pile of cloth is broken, it is still good for making small clothes. The fabric should be softer, so that it is comfortable to wear next to the body, and if it is too small, you can cut a few handkerchiefs, whether it is for yourself or as a gift, it is very practical, the third grandma and Wan Shi treats them well, but I can't afford to give them good things, and it's not a good idea to give them square handkerchiefs.
"Hey, you can pick whatever you want, and just give me some money if you choose." Those cloth heads, even if they don't give money, can be given to them for free, anyway, they are all scraps of cloth. People from rich families look down on them, and country people are too busy with these materials, which are too expensive, so this cloth head has been piled up here for a long time.
Regarding Dodo's proposal this time, Mrs. Liu did not stop it, because now she felt that her daughter had a very strong idea, and she was very relieved, so she let Dodo choose.
Dodo walked over to the cloth head, picking it out, and making calculations in her heart.The first is white cotton muslin, which needs to be selected more. The three of them need to add at least one set of small clothes and two pairs of socks.And my mother knows how to cut, needle, thread and embroider, not to mention, so just buy the fabric and let her mother take the time to sew it. If you make good use of it, you will find a bargain. The smaller ones are used to sew socks, and the small clothes for her and Lan Qian. The big ones are just for her mother. With a plan in mind, Duo Duo carefully pick.
Oh, not to mention, these silks, satins, and silks are so beautiful.Even Dodo, who is from modern times, thinks these materials are good-looking. She picked up two pieces of satin and looked at them. The size is just right for making handkerchiefs. She thought that the third grandma and Wan Shi would definitely like them. There is a silk veil, which is incredible.
"Mother, how about making handkerchiefs for the third grandma and the little aunt with these few pieces?" Duo Duo picked up the two pieces of material and said to Mrs. Liu.
After speaking, Dodo went on to pick out a piece of pea-green and a piece of light-yellow spun silk, and another piece of silver-red plain satin, and put everything she wanted aside. Sapphire blue plain satin, one piece of moon-white Lu silk, one piece of indigo Lu silk, and two pieces of light blue Lu silk.
Not to mention that Duoduo likes these, even Liu, who is used to frugality, can't help but like these colorful materials, "Your third grandma and your little aunt will definitely like it, my Duo'er The selected material will definitely look good when made into a handkerchief. I can hem the edges and embroider flowers. But, Duo Duo, you don’t need so much even as a gift.” Although it doesn’t cost much, if you choose too much, I’m afraid It's people who won't let themselves lose it.
"Mother, it's okay, I'll ask my little brother to give us a little cheaper, or else he'll keep these cloth heads here, why not sell them to us, I'll choose these to be useful, and I'll have to buy some more colored threads later , the embroidered handkerchief will be very beautiful." Duoduo has her own plan in mind, but she doesn't plan to tell Liu now.
Sure enough, shopping is a woman's nature. After such a short time, Duo Duo actually bought a large bag of cloth heads, Liu Shi was a little sweaty looking at it, and looked at the young man awkwardly.
"Little girl, you have good eyesight. Which of the few pieces of material you chose is not a good one? How about this? Let's make a point first. You don't need to give me more for this bag of cloth. Just give me five cents. In the future, you will be short of money." Just buy more of what you need, and we also come in for a new batch of this cloth head every half a month, so come if you need it!" The young man didn't sit on the ground and raise the price, but said very earnestly.
