Chapter 13
"Little sister! Is this... snail really edible?" Li Xiaomei was still worried, seeing Li Xiaojin eating like that, she looked at Li Xiaojin worriedly and asked.

"It's okay, big sister! It's delicious, try it!" Seeing that both of them were looking at her, Li Xiaojin warmly greeted them to eat quickly.

Li Yuanxi was fine, his little sister ate it all, so he had to follow suit!He picked up the bowl and started eating.

Li Xiaomei took a deep breath and took a bowl to eat.

Mrs. Zhao sent her son Li Jiasheng over to check on the situation. The snail soup, she smelled good, but no one had ever tasted it, so she was afraid that something would happen.So let Li Xiaojin eat a few first, and when she's all right, she'll bring the rest over!

But Li Xiaojin didn't wait for her to come to ask for it, so he cooked all the remaining snails, and asked Li Xiaomei to add chili, fennel, tangerine peel, and all the seasonings he could see.Li Yuanxi was ordered to peel a bunch of toothpicks.

Mrs. Zhao didn't know what the three of them were doing, and wanted to find something to do, and wanted to see what they were up to.

That night, Li Xiaomei brought a big bucket of spicy snails into the house, and quietly asked Li Xiaojin, "Can this stuff really sell for money!?"

"Yes! We'll know when we go tomorrow!" Li Xiaojin nodded confidently, but he didn't know what to do.No one in this place eats snails. After so much effort, if they really can't sell them, and she can only watch and eat them, she will die of suffocation!

The next day, Li Xiaojin was still sleeping, Li Yuanxi got up and filled two tanks of water, and Li Xiaomei also got up in a hurry to feed the pigs.At this time Li Changlu also got up.

"Father! The work at home is almost done. We'll go to the market today, and we won't come back for dinner in the morning!" Li Xiaojin didn't want to talk to that old lady Feng, and Feng Shi might not agree to this matter.Although I don't have a good impression of this stepfather, it should be said that I have no impression, the words should still make sense... right! ?
"If you're going to the market, let's go after dinner!" Li Changlu looked at the gauze wrapped around Li Xiaojin's head, and his eyes flashed with worry.

"Let's eat at noon! Let's go first, Dad!" Li Xiaojin waved his hand, called Li Yuanxi and Li Xiaomei, and went out with the guys.

He fumbled for a few pennies and chased them out. Seeing that the three of them had gone far away, she felt faintly disappointed.She felt that the three children were alienating her, especially the third child.

Li Yuanxi also had money, but it was only two pennies, which was only enough for Li Xiaojin's car fare.He paid for Li Xiaojin to take the donkey cart, and he walked with Li Xiaomei.

The cart was pulled by Wang Er Er from the village. Li Yuanxi was silent and rarely talked to others. Li Xiaomei seldom went out and stayed at home every day. Voice.

Li Xiaojin turned into a chatterbox, and talked to Wang Laoer about Uncle Wang, boasting and asking questions, and soon found out the situation of Wang Laoer's family.Parents are both dead, and they just finished their filial piety last year. They have a newly married daughter-in-law and a younger sister who is about the same age as Li Xiaojin. The family has little land, so they help the villagers pull carts during the slack and earn some money to subsidize the family.

The people in the same car all wondered why Li Xiaojin had changed, but they all gossiped about Li Xiaojin's family affairs and what he was doing at the market.

Li Xiaojin generously said that he was selling snails, and took out toothpicks, asking everyone in the car to taste them.

"Oh! Not to mention, this mud snail is really spicy!" Aunt Li who was next to him finished eating one and wanted to eat more.

"That's right! As long as this thing is done well, it's still delicious! Aunt Li will try it again!" Li Xiaojin smiled and beckoned the people in the car to taste it again.

Aunt Li wanted to eat again, but she was embarrassed, and it happened to be at the market.

Li Yuanxi carried the bucket, took Li Xiaojin and Li Xiaomei to the market, found an empty space, and set up a stall.

"Everyone, uncles, aunts, grandpas and aunts, come and have a look, take a look, the delicious snack spicy snails! Try it before you buy it. If it's not good, you don't need money. If you don't like it, don't force it to buy! Pass by, don't miss it! "Just as Li Xiaomei stood still, Li Xiaojin began to yell, and she yelled so smoothly that she almost fell to the ground unsteadily in fright.

Li Xiaojin wore a blue handkerchief on her head, folded by her like a nurse's hat, with two dimples when she smiled, it was very pleasing to stand and yell, and the things she sold were also rare, and she tasted them for free, so many people came to watch the fun .

Li Yuanxi first picked one to eat for everyone to see, Li Xiaomei ate it too, Li Xiaojin wanted to eat it, but unfortunately the hole in her head was not healed, so she could only watch.

"It tastes pretty good. It should be good to drink with. Why are you selling it!?" A strong man squeezed to the front with a jug of wine.

"This big brother is so right. This spicy snail is the best drink! How much do you want, big brother? It only costs a penny for a pack of such big leaves. It's cheap, and it's refreshing to drink!" Li Xiaojin greeted with a smile, and took The hemp leaves wrapped a bag, and it was too full to wrap it. Li Xiaomei tied it with hemp silk and handed it to the strong man.

"One pack is not enough, two packs!" The strong man saw that one pack was not enough to stuff his teeth, and Chang Zui asked for another pack.

Li Xiaojin responded crisply, wrapping up another bag and handing it over nimbly.I received two pennies.

If one person buys it, another person will buy it. There are more than 40 bags in a big bucket, and they are sold out before noon.

Li Xiaojin happily took the money bag and counted the money, 46 coins, making money!With these funds, she can do other things!It's this money, she has to take care of it, don't be robbed by those at home!That old lady Feng is really stealing!
Li Xiaojin put on a cloth strap for twenty Wen, counted three Wen, and bought a vegetable bun for each of them.Li Xiaojin took Li Xiaomei for a walk on the street, and Li Yuanxi followed behind with a wooden bucket.

Li Xiaojin always asked about everything he saw, but when the sellers saw the clothes worn by three people, although they were washed clean, they were all patched next to each other, and they either ignored them or kicked them out.

Li Xiaojin was not annoyed, and asked a few more questions when he met someone who was willing to talk, but he didn't buy a single thing.She is poor now, and she can't even fill her stomach!Now she urgently needs to find a way to earn money, have enough food and clothing, and get rid of that old woman Feng!
But after all this inquiry, Li Xiaojin really got some good news.

Looking at the rows of plates and bowls on the ground, Li Xiaojin stroked his chin and began to think.I don’t know if this Zhou Dynasty is the Zhou Dynasty in Chinese history. Anyway, most of the porcelain and utensils she saw and inquired about were pottery, and porcelain was the earliest celadon.But does this mean that if she makes porcelain and nothing else, just these plates, bowls, vases and so on, then she can make a fortune and become well-off! ?
Thinking about it, Li Xiaojin started laughing shyly.How well she chose her major!When she first chose a major, she planned to study agriculture, but her awesome father had slapped her ears on the back of her head, "What are you studying agriculture for? Huh? Your father and I have been farming all our lives, so we just You are a precious girl, you still want to eat in the dirt! What... What kind of brains are you?"
