The first wife of the strongest peasant daughter

Chapter 19

Just thinking about a quick and short-term way to make money, Gu Chuhan saw a stall selling Spring Festival couplets in front of him, and a scholar-like man was sitting behind the table, and some of them bought upside-down blessings and other Spring Festival couplets, and they could write them on the spot.

"Shiro! Let's go! Go home and get the money!" The proprietress of Luozi Jinxiufang didn't ask for it last time, and gave them more than 400 Wen, but Mrs. Gu only spent 100 Wen, and there were more than [-] Wen, which Gu Raniang took. The monthly allowance for two months is also [-] wen, plus what she has before at home, she only needs to buy pens and red paper.

Although her handwriting is not very good, she has practiced with her father for so many years!It should be no problem to write Spring Festival couplets and fool people in the countryside!

Gu Shilang was puzzled, "Ninth brother!? What do we want to do with the money? I brought a penny, you, what do you want to eat, I will buy it for you!"

Gu Chuhan patted him, "Tamping goods! Of course, money is used to make money!"

"You don't want to...bet again!?" Gu Shilang raised his voice, afraid that people would hear him, and then lowered his voice.

"Of course! No!" Seeing his face change, Gu Chuhan laughed out loud.

Gu Shilang glared at her dissatisfied, "Grandma will definitely scold you if she knows!"

"Use the money to buy red paper, and we'll sell Spring Festival couplets!" Gu Chuhan rolled his eyes at him.

Thinking of her drawings of clothes, which were beautiful and simple, she opened her mouth but did not speak.

When the two returned home, Gu Chuhan took out a pen made of chicken feathers, spread a piece of fine soil on the ground, and wrote a Spring Festival couplet with a good harvest, a very simple couplet.

Both Mrs. Gu and Gu Raniang were illiterate, so Gu Chuhan read out to them with a straight voice, "Family prosperity, people prosperity, career prosperity, fortune prosperity, wealth prosperity, luck, prosperity, and good harvest!"

"Jiulang can write so many words!" Gu Pozi said with regret.If there is no accident at home, with the ability of the third son and the ability of the third daughter-in-law, she can do it for both students!

"I know a lot of characters! Master is slow in teaching, but I learn a lot by myself!" Gu Chuhan raised his chin slightly, looking very powerful.

Gu Shilang Balabala told Mrs. Gu and Gu Raniang about selling Spring Festival couplets, "Brother Jiu said he took all the money to buy red paper, and he wrote Spring Festival couplets to sell money!"

"This...will someone buy ours?" Mrs. Gu hesitated, not because she didn't trust her grandson, but because Jiulang didn't learn so much.Moreover, they are still in the period of filial piety, and the family is in such a situation. If people know about it, they will not buy it.

Gu Raniang also thought of the real problem in front of her, "They buy Spring Festival couplets just for joy and good fortune. Some people take gifts to the homes of old scholars in the village to ask for them!"

Gu Chuhan frowned, "Try first! If it doesn't work, sell it in another town or county!"

Mrs. Gu knew that she was trying to find a way, and the family situation was really bad. She gritted her teeth and nodded, "Let's go to the county town to buy red paper and sell it in the town after writing it! They said they were Spring Festival couplets bought directly from the county seat! Written by educated people!"

"Okay!" Gu Chuhan nodded.

After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, she acted immediately, and Gu Raniang took the money and ran to the county town to buy red paper and green gold powder.

Gu Chuhan has already ground the ink.

After dinner, Mrs. Gu and Gu Raniang helped cut the paper, while Gu Chuhan wrote.There are two kinds of ink and black characters on red paper, and those with green and gold powder added, which are shining with gold powder.

Mrs. Gu looked at the Spring Festival couplets that Gu Chuhan had finished writing. Gu Shilang and Gu Ruoniang were busy fanning them to dry, and they were all on the kang. Only then did she realize that she was really in a hurry to go to the doctor!I bought so much red paper, and that small piece of expensive gold powder, I have spent all my money. If Jiulang's handwriting is not good-looking, wouldn't it be...

The words are very beautiful!The Spring Festival couplets also imply good luck, prosperity, prosperity, and a bumper crop.Mrs. Gu felt a little unreal, "Mother Ran! Tell me, am I dreaming?"

Gu Raniang has been with Gu Jiulang since childhood, she knows exactly how much she has!Kuro had studied and could write before, but he couldn't write so well!These Spring Festival couplets, she looks good!

Thinking of her drawing clothes before to redeem her from the Qin family, and talking about seeing the clothes worn by immortals in the dreamland, she whispered for a long time, "Jiulang dreamed of immortals!"

It can only be explained in this way!
Mrs. Gu believed this even more. Gu Chuhan's leg injury healed quickly, and she felt that not only was Dr. Han good at medicine, but also Mrs. Xie was blessed in heaven!She hanged herself because she didn't want to spend the money on her. Those who save Jiulang must not worry, and will bless her!Slowly nodding, "I hope it's your mother's blessing!"

Gu Raniang opened her mouth, held both hands, and said to herself: Mother!Be sure to bless us!

After staying up most of the night, I finished writing all the red paper I bought, got up early the next day, and took it to the town to set up a stall.

These few days are the time to buy Spring Festival couplets. As soon as their Spring Festival couplets are put out, people come to see them.

A man in a long gown observed it for a long time, "The writing is beautiful! It's free-spirited, full of righteousness, simple and straightforward, not bad! Not bad!"

The people around recognized him, "Chen Xiucai! Are these Spring Festival couplets really so good?"

Then Chen Xiucai smiled and asked Gu Chuhan, "Who wrote these Spring Festival couplets?"

"My family bought it from the county seat. How nice it is for you to touch this paper! I want to earn some hard-earned money and buy some meat and toothpaste for my baby during the New Year! I will add an extra penny for a pair of Spring Festival couplets!" Mrs. Gu said fibulously, Just say something is good, the price is cheap, and invite people to buy it.

Hearing her say that the paper is good, Chen Xiucai smiled and shook his head, "These Spring Festival couplets are not just for paper. The words are good and the meaning is good. That is a good Spring Festival couplet!"

As soon as they heard it was good, some people asked the price, which was three to five cents cheaper than others, and they bought two or three paintings one after another.If you don't pay attention, just a pair of doors will do.It's not bad for the ten or twenty renminbi, so I bought a pair for the main room and the kitchen room.Happy Chinese New Year!

Gu Chuhan's Spring Festival couplets are also very interesting. The gate, the main room door, and the kitchen door are divided into categories. The gate welcomes the spring and welcomes blessings and escorts;Simple and direct, and catchy when you read it, it won the hearts of ordinary people.

In just one morning, only three pairs of Spring Festival couplets were sold. Mrs. Gu counted the money, doubled it, and hurried to the county to buy red paper and green gold powder.

In the evening, the whole family stayed up late to cut paper and write Spring Festival couplets.

Early the next morning, I took it to set up a stall.

There are already repeat customers coming over, and they even brought people over, saying that the meaning is good, the handwriting is good, and it was taken from the county. Chen Xiucai praised it as a dragon and a phoenix!
Seeing a lot of people coming and selling Spring Festival couplets, Mrs. Gu, Gu Shilang, and Gu Ruoniang were all overjoyed, and Gu Chuhan always had a smile on his face. If someone chooses Spring Festival couplets, just read them to them in a correct way. Say a few good words, and bless the visitors with the words on the Spring Festival couplets. The happy villagers readily pay for the gate, the main room door and the kitchen door!

"This male doll is not only tall and neat, but also speaks beautifully! I owe you a good word!"

Gu Chuhan took the money, smiled and cupped his hands in thanks.While selling, counting the money, this Spring Festival couplet can be sold for 29, and it can be sold for another three days. It can earn more than two taels to three taels of silver. Buying meat, vegetables, dried fruits and lucky money for the New Year should be about the same as gift money.

Mrs. Gu also had a smile on her face, "I'll close the stall again today, buy more paper, I'll sell it later tomorrow!"

"Okay! Don't make a trip too!" Gu Chuhan responded.

Seeing someone coming with Spring Festival couplets again, probably buying the same ones as neighbors and relatives, Mrs. Gu smiled and stepped forward to say hello, "Come to buy Spring Festival couplets! What kind of couplets do you want? Choose here!"

Gu Chuhan looked at the expression on his face, put away his smile, and took two steps forward.

"This is the Spring Festival couplets you sell, right? The Spring Festival couplets are for welcoming the Spring Festival, and every household wants a good meaning, a good omen! I didn't know before, that someone died in your family, and you didn't even publish it for a hundred days. How dare you come here?" Selling these Spring Festival couplets, make us feel frustrated! You guys are really brave!" The visitor cursed and threw the Spring Festival couplets directly.

Several other people also scolded and smashed over and fell on the stall, "I'm looking for someone to judge, your family is newly mourning, and you dare to touch these happy things! Are you trying to let us buy all the bad luck and bad luck of your family?" ?! Let us carry it for you!?"

"Smash their stalls! Lose money!"
