Chapter 100 Buying Sheep

When they arrived at the market, everyone divided up as usual, and they made an appointment at the meeting place. The brothers and sisters Cui Wei went to Master Lin's mansion first and handed over the things to Steward Lin. To Cui Wei's surprise, Steward Lin gave it to him. She was ten feet of satin, and said that Madam asked her to help make a few more sets of purse handkerchiefs and other things.Cui Wei has done needlework a few times these days, and she is quite skilled in her skills. She also knows that Mrs. Lin likes the things she makes. Skillful skills are probably second. It should be the first time these people have seen a whole set of the same pattern. The things are just a little novel. After all, the things Cui Wei draws are all made by herself. There are no such things at this time. If she doesn't hand over the drawings, I'm afraid that even Mrs. Lin will not be so quick to draw them. It can be done well.

Steward Lin took a purse from his pocket and handed it to Cui Wei. This purse was different from Cui Wei's own purse. It was embroidered with a few delicate orchids. Although it wasn't very cute, it was better It is a little more antique, and the most important thing is that the fabric of this purse is very good. The material is similar to the satin Mrs. Lin gave her last time. Cui Wei pinched it, and there was probably five taels of silver in it , I was taken aback immediately!

Although the Lin family was generous, she got these rewards the first time she sent something to Mrs. Lin, but it was a novelty, and this is the second time she has done it. Even if she has a unique skill, she can give a few hundred dollars at most. It is already a great salary, how can you give so much money?Cui Wei looked up at Steward Lin, before opening her mouth, she saw Steward Lin nodding at her: "Little girl, Madam likes the things you sent recently. This is a reward for you. The satin you made is madam If you are going to give it to the nobles in Beijing, don't ask too much, but pay more attention to it. If it is done well, Madam may give you another reward. In the future, those fungus dishes will not need to be sent. If you want to send them again, I will I'll talk to you later."

Sure enough, they were a little tired of eating.Cui Wei nodded, and couldn't help being a little happy in her heart. She had just given Yang three taels of silver to 'redeem her body', but now she didn't expect that Steward Lin would give herself such a surprise again, and she couldn't help it, one side He said obediently: "I see. But Uncle Lin, although the wife said that the cold fungus may be eaten too much, why don't I send some dried fungus to Uncle next time, and you can soak it, whether you use it for stewing in soup or using it. It’s delicious even if you fry it here, so let me give it to my wife to try something new.” She said like this.He didn't show an uneasy look to ask about the right and wrong, but Manager Lin couldn't help but show a gentle smile on his face.On the one hand, someone brought over the wrapped satin cloth and handed it to Cui Wei to watch her put it into the sack, while saying: "The remaining satin is still a reward for you, but you have to be more careful, and you must do it well." Be more refined, if you do well, Madam will not forget your benefits!"

This was the second time Manager Lin said this.Cui Wei naturally paid more attention to it, knowing that he was kindly reminding herself.Then he nodded as if reassuring.Earlier, Cui Wei bought some satin and made some women's purses and other things to give to Steward Lin as a thank-you gift. I guess Steward Lin also appreciated it, so she said a few words to her. After Cui Wei thanked Steward Lin, this Only then did he drag Cui Jingping out of the Lin family.

Now that she has some money in her hand, Cui Wei is somewhat relieved. Although she hasn't figured out how to go forward for a while, it seems that the extra five taels of silver is for Cui Wei. A lot of stability came.I took Cui Jingping for a stroll in the market, watched juggling with him for a while, and then walked around again. Originally, Cui Wei wanted to buy some chickens and ducks to feed, but now the house is deserted, raising a few chickens and ducks In the future, it’s good to eat by yourself when you grow up. Who would have thought that when Cui Jingping took Cui Jingping to the place where the cattle were sold, Cui Wei was a little pleasantly surprised to see someone leading a sheep standing where a group of chicken and duck sellers were standing.

The sheep's hair was black all over, and it was screaming 'baa-baa'. The row of breasts on the lower abdomen was swollen and swollen, dripping milky white juice from time to time, but the belly was flattened. Ewes that have given birth!At this time, there were not many people raising sheep. The mutton had a strong smell, and many people didn't like to eat it. Besides, one sheep at most could grow to about ten catties, and it couldn't be sold for much. It might as well be more cost-effective to raise a pig. Cui Wei, the head of Xiaowan Village, has never seen anyone raising a sheep. She didn't expect that someone would bring one here to sell.When Cui Wei saw the goat's milk, she couldn't walk immediately. She is growing up now. If she can drink some goat's milk, she will grow taller in the future. Besides, this goat's milk is very This is a good thing, better than milk. Although the taste of goat milk is not very good, but Cui Wei has a way to get rid of the smell, so naturally watching this ewe, her heart is moved. Buy this sheep and drink some of it from time to time, and the rest can't be finished. It can also be used to wash your face or do other things!

Without any hesitation, Cui Wei pulled Cui Jingping towards the sheep seller.The sheep was tied with a rope, and it yelled 'baa-baa', and stepped back a few steps. The sheep seller was a middle-aged man in his forties, and when he saw Cui Wei coming, he hurriedly He reprimanded the sheep, took a look at Cui Wei, saw that she and Cui Jingping were just two children, and showed disappointment on their faces, as if they were children who were curious and wanted to come and touch the sheep when they saw the sheep. He also ignored them, but he didn't scold when he saw Cui Wei put his hand on the sheep's head and touched it.

"Uncle, how are you going to sell this sheep?" Cui Wei touched the sheep a few times, and the black sheep trembled a few times, then docilely kicked its two front hooves, and slowly lay down.Cui Wei saw that its abdomen was trembling unceasingly, and the snow-white milk was very distinct on the wool. It was probably not long after the sheep gave birth. She became more determined to buy this sheep, and touched it again. After a few clicks, he looked up at the middle-aged man.

"Little girl, are you asking for fun, or do you really want to buy it? If you want to buy it, you can pay three hundred coins!" The middle-aged man glanced at Cui Wei lazily, apparently he didn't really think that Cui Wei could buy his own sheep.Except for some rich lords, almost all the people who came here to go to the market were country people. Although the clothes Cui Wei was wearing were not patched, they were not made of good materials. The middle-aged man naturally thought that she could not buy them. , Stretched out and kicked the sheep lying on the side, looked at Cui Wei and laughed.

Before Cui Wei could speak, a woman selling eggs next to her pouted immediately: "Don't bully others just because she is a little girl, you just gave birth and you want to sell two hundred coins, even a child It's too coaxing, it's really too virtuous!" The woman's voice was not low, and as soon as she finished speaking, the middle-aged man's face turned red, and the sellers around saw that no one came to buy things at the moment. , all poked their heads over to look, you pointed at the middle-aged man and said: "The ewes that have just been born are not edible, and it is useless to buy them. You have to spend energy to raise them. After a while Maybe you will be thinner again. I see that your sheep is about sixty catties. After a while, you may be even thinner. At that time, you won't even be able to sell for two hundred cash, and you will be paid three dollars for opening your mouth. Baiwen."

At this time, the people in the country are very particular. Generally, hens that have just hatched eggs cannot be killed and eaten, and many people are unwilling to eat some sow pork, not to mention that this is obviously a ewe that has just given birth. The middle-aged man was dissatisfied with his nonsense, anyway, he was fine now, and everyone blamed the middle-aged man who sold the sheep.The middle-aged man was a little ashamed, but he thought he knew the reasons, his face flushed, he gritted his teeth, glanced at Cui Wei and said:

"Little girl, if you really want it, just give me 150 Wen. Even if you take a sheep back to raise it for a few months, and eat it after weaning, it will lose a few catties at most, but It’s just a matter of effort, I’ll count you 150 Wen, I won’t lose you, no less!”

The middle-aged man said 150 Wen, and many people shook their heads. In addition to two ingots of five taels of silver, Cui Wei also had a scattered copper coin of more than 400 Wen. Such a ewe only costs 150 Wen, and I was immediately overjoyed.People in the country think that the ewes that have just been born cannot be eaten, and it is not worthwhile to buy them, but she did not buy the sheep for food, but for the milk of the sheep. Naturally, she thinks it is the most cost-effective to buy now. During the period of milk production, I am afraid that she will not buy a hundred coins.

But although Cui Wei agreed in her heart, she showed hesitation on the surface. She knew that she was young, and it would be too straightforward to agree to 150 texts, which would make people suspicious, so she just pretended that she liked this sheep very much. After haggling with the middle-aged man for a long time, I finally bought the sheep at a price of 130 five renminbi.As soon as Cui Jingping saw Cui Wei paid the money, he immediately took the sheep's rope from the middle-aged man. The sheep had clear eyes, Cui Jingping casually pulled some weeds from the side and handed it to its mouth. It also opened its mouth to chew, and it didn't look like a sheep. The appearance of a sick sheep.

The middle-aged man pulled the straw around his waist out to wear copper coins with a happy face, and smiled at Cui Jingping when he saw Cui Jingping's movements: "My sheep is very good, but I just gave birth to a lamb and I don't have the energy to serve it, so I don't have the energy to serve it. I’m sure you’re not sick, they’re all from the same place, and I’m not going to punish you.” The middle-aged man didn’t expect to sell the sheep, but now he not only sold the sheep, but also sold 130 yuan. Wen, was overjoyed immediately, said a few more words to Cui Wei brothers and sisters, then picked up his things and left.

After buying such a sheep, the seller was happy, Cui Wei was also happy with the purchase, and Cui Jingping was even more excited. As soon as he pulled the sheep, the sheep would follow him meekly. From time to time, I took the sheep to take two steps and one step back, which was a lot of fun. (To be continued.
