Chapter 8 Harvest

Chapter 8 Harvest

The old lady glanced at the fish in the bucket reluctantly. She used to do this all the time, as long as she found something wrong, or she would cry and make a fuss. Those people were afraid of affecting the business, so they usually gave her some. will go.Today she saw that there were only three milk dolls setting up the stall, and she thought it would be easy to achieve the goal, but after talking so much, the child still didn't let go, so she had to cry... Who would have thought that he would call the yamen servant...

How did she know that it wasn't Liang Yimu who was stubborn, but that he didn't understand at all!If he had known earlier, he would have given it to her long ago, and Liang Yimei was right, saving them a big trouble in the future!

Seeing the troublemakers left, everyone dispersed one after another, and some of them stayed to buy fish because they also fell in love with the fish here while watching the excitement.Liang Yimu grabbed a handful of money from the cloth bag, secretly counted fifty coins, and secretly handed it to the yamen servant, saying, "Thank you so much for the official today, if it wasn't for the official, you don't know what to do?"

The yamen servant smiled more cordially, "Brother, you are welcome, I will take care of this area, if you have anything to do in the future, just come to me."

Liang Yimu laughed and said, "Then thank you so much, sir!"

Liang Yimu started selling fish after seeing off the yamen servants. Thanks to the old lady, there were quite a lot of people around. Everyone saw that the fish here were alive and kicking, and they all thought it was fresh. It was sold out, looking at the remaining bucket of fish, and looking at the few people on the ground, I felt that it would be difficult to sell it all out today.

Liang Yimu bought some vegetables, tofu and so on at the nearby stall.These days I have been eating stewed fish. Although the stewed fish is delicious, I can't eat other things. My younger siblings are still young, so I have to eat some of everything.

Liang Yimu packed up his things and put them in one of the wooden barrels, Liang Yimei ran over to look at them, Liang Yimu turned sideways, blocking everyone's sight, and took out all the money from his sister's inner pocket In another bag, I put it in the middle of the vegetables I bought.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is just two siblings talking together, and then the elder brother fixes the younger sister's clothes.

Liang Yimu guarded the stall, seeing that Shenzheng was about to arrive, he looked at the remaining bucket of fish secretly anxious, knowing that he had taken too much, it seemed that he would not be able to take so many fish at once in the future, Liang Yimu secretly calculated in his heart Then, he saw a pair of blue cloth shoes parked in front of him, he was overjoyed, and stood up and asked, "Is the guest officer going to buy fish?"

The visitor was a little arrogant, he snorted lightly from his nostrils as an answer, Liang Yimu didn't mind, and led him to look at the fish in the wooden barrel.

The visitor looked at the fresh fish in the barrel and was slightly surprised, "Is this fish wild?"

"No, my father raised them in the pond at home."

"Oh? It looks very fresh, how much is it per catty?"

"It's the same as everyone else's, twenty cents a catty."

The visitor frowned slightly, and said: "I am the steward of the Qian Mansion." After speaking, he looked down at Liang Yimu.

Liang Yimu didn't know why, Liang Yimei rolled her eyes secretly, what day is it today, why all the ghosts and ghosts have come out?The person who came saw Liang Yimu's expression of not knowing, and felt that his breath was coming out of his chest. I collected it!
Although Liang Yimu didn't understand what he meant by that sentence, buying and selling things was just a bargain, so he thought about it: "If the manager buys more, I can make it cheaper."

"Oh, how much cheaper?"

"If you want more, it's [-] cents a catty."

The corner of the visitor's mouth twitched, is this cheap?I want to leave, but this fish seller is the only one left in the whole street, and the lady inside has specified that I want to eat fish today, and if I can’t buy it back, the manager will have to pull out my skin.Gritting his teeth, he said, "If you give me fifteen coins, I'll buy ten."

Liang Yimu bowed and said: "Fifteen Wen is too little, you can add more, I usually sell this fish for [-] Wen, how about this, we all take a step back, how about [-] Wen?"

The visitor shook his head and pretended to leave, thinking that Liang Yimu would definitely stop him, but Liang Yimu still remained silent after he had walked five steps. If it wasn't for Grandpa Fifth coming soon, he wouldn't be willing to sell the seventeen coins. He lost so much money all of a sudden. If he sold firewood, he didn't know how much he would have to sell?
The person who came walked another five steps and saw that the other party only lowered his head, and he didn't intend to stop him at all. He breathed heavily in his chest. This was the first time he met such an uninformed person, so he had to turn around by himself.

Liang Yimei kept looking at the steward, and when she saw him acting like this, she choked back her laughter until her stomach ached.

In the end, the steward bought ten fish at a price of seventeen cents a catty. Seeing the remaining five weirs, Yimu felt relieved. It didn't matter if the five fish were eaten by himself or given to Grandpa Fifth.

Before the three of them could wait for Shen Zheng, they saw Grandpa Fifth driving over from a distance. Liang Yimei was relieved, it should be safer with Grandpa Fifth here!The three of them, brother and sister, are so eye-catching today!

Seeing that there were still five fish left, Fifth Master Liang said, "Don't wait any longer!"

Liang Yimu shook his head, "Fifth Grandpa, it's already this time, and no one will come out to buy fish again, so let's take these five fish back and eat."

Liang Wuye looked at the sky and nodded, the two of them worked together to load all the things into the car, and the tofu seller next to him asked Xiao Yilin: "Brother, who is he?"

Liang Yilin grinned and said, "Grandpa!"

The tofu seller muttered to himself, that is to say, who is so relieved to let the children sell so many fish, it turns out that grandpa is working in the city!
When they returned to the foot of the mountain, Liang Yimu gave Liang Wuye [-] Wen and two fish. Liang Wuye also knew that they had made money today, if they refused, the child might not come to him in the future.I had to accept it.

The three returned home with their things, and Liang Yimu immediately washed the pot and cooked without taking a break. He wasn't in a hurry to eat, he was in a hurry to count the money.

The eyes of the three people were staring at the pile of money in the middle of the kang, it was too much, no wonder Liang Yimei felt that the money was so heavy!

It was also the first time for Liang Yimu to see so many copper plates, let alone Liang Yilin and Liang Yimei. Liang Yimei was the first to recover and said: "Count the money! Count the money!"

"Yes," Liang Yimu said, dividing the money into two piles, and pushed the smaller pile to Liang Yilin, saying: "You count this pile, I will count this pile, and when counting, you have to string the money together. A string of [-] Wen, just like last time."

Liang Yilin nodded, and Liang Yimei held back her mouth when she saw that she had nothing to do, "I want to count the money too!"

Seeing that his younger sister looked at him pitifully, Liang Yimu couldn't resist, so he sorted out some from his pile and said, "Then my younger sister can count these, okay?"

Liang Yimei nodded, Liang Yimu found a few ropes for everyone, and the three siblings counted the money quietly.Liang Yimei's eyes sparkled, as if she saw some rare treasure!Isn't Miss Ben's favorite thing to do is counting money?If it wasn't for counting money in the previous life, she wouldn't have applied for the accounting exam, but the money is not hers after all, and counting is just a dry addiction. How can it compare to the present, all the money is mine!It's Mine!Although the money is really very little!

The three happily counted the money, Liang Yimu was faster after all, but Liang Yilin was not much slower, Liang Yimei didn't dare to go too fast, after all, if a three-year-old child was too fast, he would be regarded as a monster.

In fact, Liang Yimei thought too much about all this. She looked at it from the perspective of modern people. How did she know that it was common for people in ancient times to mature precociously, such as being able to write a thousand characters at the age of three, and writing poems at the age of five. They can be found everywhere, but she is still talking at the age of three, so one can imagine how unsuspecting she is.

The three counted for a long time and finally counted them. There are 5834 coins in total. Liang Yimu took out the money he saved last time, dismantled the [-] coins, took out the ones that couldn't be strung together, and strung them into a string, and counted them like this , Their family property has more than seven taels. Although it is not much, it is more than enough to survive the winter.

Liang Yimu hid the money, and the three fell asleep contentedly.

Maybe it was because he let go of the burden on his heart, or maybe he was too tired yesterday, Liang Yimu didn't wake up at the usual time the next day, and when he opened his eyes, the sun was already high, he was startled, subconsciously Looking around, I saw that the younger brother and sister were still soundly asleep, the younger sister's feet were placed next to the younger brother's mouth, and the younger brother's hand was placed on the younger sister's body. There was no sign of waking up at all, and the sun was shining through the window lattice. There was an indescribable tenderness in their bodies. Looking at them, Liang Yimu felt his heart melt into water. Thinking of his mother's instructions before she died, he felt that no matter how hard or tired he was, it was worth it. These two were his relatives , the only relative in the world!

This chapter is a bit short, but there is another chapter in the afternoon, I will try to write as long as possible, and make up for the short ones!
