A Story of a Little Village Girl Getting Rich

Chapter 24

Miao Xiaocao walked slowly and steadily all the way, thinking in her heart how she could successfully gain a foothold in the county town.In this unfamiliar place, as a person with a modern soul, Miao Xiaocao felt that it would not be difficult to find something to do and start a small business.This small business has to be close to life, and it has to make everyone feel unique and needed, preferably food.

The sky is getting brighter and the morning dew is getting heavier and heavier. Miao Xiaocao's shoes are wet, as are her trouser legs. She lifts up her sleeves to wipe the sweat from her face, and her clothes smell of night dew.

This kind of day, I have to go like this once a year, if I can live in the county town, then it doesn't have to be like this.

Before he knew it, the sun had risen, and Miao Xiaocao realized that he had to speed up.Birthdays here are celebrated in the morning.Birthday people have to bathe and change clothes, women have to dress up, men have to shave and shave their faces, and when they make an appointment in the morning, they sit upright in the high hall and accept birthday greetings from their children and grandchildren.Therefore, generally only those who are over sixty years old and full of children and grandchildren are eligible to enjoy this birthday worship.It must not be too late to come here specially to pay respects to my birthday, because my aunt would have something to say again if it was too late.

On the street in the early morning, there are quite a lot of people shopping for vegetables with baskets, and there are quite a lot of people walking around with birdcages, and there are also hawkers hawking along the street.Miao Xiaocao didn't dare to stay too long, walking on the bluestone paved road, although her pace was fast, her ears were idle, and the continuous stream of voices along the way entered her ears.

Going through the county seat to the west of the county seat, you can see a red vermilion lacquer gate with a tall and large family. Going around the gate, there is a series of low-door and low-level houses on the right side of the house. As far as the house is concerned, compared to Miao Xiaocao's home, it is a mansion.Go forward to the first door, with red satin and red lanterns on the door, needless to say, there must be a happy event in this house.

Standing at the door were Miao Xiaocao's uncle and aunt.He raised his head and smiled brightly at them, then knelt down and called out uncle and aunt.

After all, the two are people who serve the big family, and their upbringing and superficial skills are not the same.The uncle reached out to touch Miao Xiaocao's hair, but said nothing, while the aunt took her bag and handed it to the people around her, leading Miao Xiaocao inside, while the uncle stayed at the door to welcome the guests.

"Xiaocao, you child is still covered with dew, hurry to find your sister Fei and get changed." My aunt seemed to like Miao Xiaocao very much.

Miao Xiaocao nodded and said, "Okay, thank you Auntie, then I'll go right away."

Looking into the hall from the courtyard, many people have already come, in groups of three or four, greeted by my uncle's youngest son.Seeing that all those people seemed to be very glamorous, Miao Xiaocao looked at her clothes again and sighed in her heart, for the sake of uncle's face, she should go to Sister Fei to change.

Although this Miss Fei is not a lady of every family, she is also a young lady, so it is not suitable to appear in front of this endless stream of guests, so she is in the backyard.

When I came to Sister Fei's room, I heard someone talking, knocked lightly on the door a few times, and shouted again: "Sister Fei, Sister Fei."

The people inside opened the door after a while.A young woman in pink clothes stood at the door, saw Miao Xiaocao smiling and said nonchalantly: "It turns out that Xiaocao is here. Come in, the big sister and the second sister are here."

After Miao Xiaocao followed her into the room, she saw two young women sitting and bowed to them respectively: "Eldest sister, second sister."

"I haven't seen Xiaocao'er this year, and it seems to have opened longer." The person Miao Xiaocao called her big sister was Wang Yinyin, the eldest daughter of Xiaocao's uncle Wang Fusheng. After being saluted by Miao Xiaocao, she stood up and touched Touching Miao Xiaocao's face, "Oh, it's cold, the dew is heavy in the morning, and the clothes are wet, wash your face and change clothes."

"Thank you big sister, that's exactly what I wanted to do when I came here." Miao Xiaocao smiled and rolled her eyes.

"Sister Fei's clothes and grass may not be suitable for her, right?" Wang Fusheng's second daughter, Wang Yurong, said in a strange tone.She is the better married among the sisters, and she married the county magistrate as his wife. Although the county magistrate has several wives and concubines, this Wang Yurong is the main wife in the backyard, which is powerful and insurmountable.She doesn't like the cousin of this aunt's family.

Miao Xiaocao smiled and looked at her youngest cousin, Wang Yufei, who was also Fei's son.

Sister Fei rolled her eyes half a circle, then smiled and went to find clothes in the closet.

As if to comfort Wang Yurong, he said: "Second sister, although Xiaocao is a little taller than me, she can still wear my clothes. It's hard to come to my house once, maybe I can't catch the wind and cold. If I catch the wind and cold, then Aunt and uncle can't come to settle accounts with dad."

"Only them, sorry they don't have the guts!" Wang Yurong's tone, eyes, and countenance made Miao Xiaocao really want to slap her to death.

"Rong'er, what nonsense are you talking about, my sister. Go ahead and see if the guests have arrived. We should go to celebrate the birthday." Wang Yurong, the eldest sister, is indeed quite prestigious. Out of Sister Fei's room.

Wang Yu waited for Wang Yurong to go away, patted Miao Xiaocao's shoulder and said, "Xiaocao'er, your second sister is a knife-mouthed bean curd heart, don't worry about her."

Miao Xiaocao never bothered to pay attention to those she disdained, and Wang Yurong's words naturally came in one ear and out the other.

Smiling to Wang's voice, he said, "Thank you, big sister. I have been sisters for so many years, and Xiaocao understands."

"Just understand. Go and change clothes." Wang Yinyin gently pushed Miao Xiaocao behind the screen.
