After eating, Ye Lin put this matter aside, because it was useless to think about it, no matter how anxious he was now, he had no way to go over, after all, it was too far away, and the transportation was inconvenient.

turned it aside, then Ye Lin still has to do his own thing, that is, to make money.

。。。。。。

At the same time, a small courtyard at the back of Yanmoyu Village, the small courtyard is not large, it is a kind of adobe house unique to this era, the courtyard wall is a fence, and an old couple lives in this courtyard.

There were three people in the house, an old man and a little girl, of course the little girl was Zhai Ying, so I heard Zhai Ying say to the old couple: "Grandpa Du, Grandma Du, I'm here." ”

"Xiaoying is here, sit down. The old woman pointed to a chair.

"Thank you, Grandma Du. ”

The old couple are very fond of this little girl who loves to learn, Yanmoyu Village is very poor, not a family and two families are poor, but the whole village is poor, there is no school in the village, if you want to go to school, you have to go to Nankou Commune.

is also because of poverty, even if they go to school, they are usually girls, and girls are basically not allowed to go, and those who are not allowed to go include Zhai Ying.

And this old couple is not simple, especially the old gentleman, who went to a private school when he was a child, stayed abroad when he was young, and was a teacher at a university in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War.

"Xiaoying, let's start now. ”

"Okay Grandpa Du. Zhai Ying took out the books, and what she was holding in her hand was the new set of books that Ye Lin had just given her.

"Xiaoying, you learn very quickly, it is estimated that in a while, you will finish these textbooks. ”

Zhai Ying has been studying with the old gentleman since she was a child, and her foundation is very solid, of course, she can learn primary school textbooks quickly, and she will complete the knowledge that others need to write in a few years.

"I know Grandpa Du, when these textbooks are finished, I will find a way to find new textbooks. ”

"Hmm. The old gentleman nodded.

At this time when she couldn't even eat, Zhai Ying still insisted on studying every day, which also made the old gentleman teach very seriously.

"Come to Xiaoying, eat something and learn again. The old lady took out a nest head from it, a very black nest head.

This is not the kind of nest sold on the street in later generations, but unique to this era, this kind of nest is okay when it is hot, once it is cool, it can't be broken, and it is hard to give bricks.

"Ah, Grandma Du, I'm not hungry, you better stay. ”

Yanmoyu Village belongs to the mid-mountainous area, where it is not like the plains to eat big pot rice, the grain is distributed to every household, but there is one thing that is similar to the plain area, that is, there is no food, of course, it is a little better than the plain area.

Zhai Ying said that she was not hungry, but her stomach betrayed her, Zhai Ying drank half a bowl of cornmeal gruel in the morning, how could she not be hungry, but there was no way, at this time, it was already very good to be able to drink gruel.

"You kid, what are you polite to Grandma Du, some time ago your Grandpa Du was sick, didn't you bring eggs and meat over! ”

"But ......"

"Don't be it, eat. ”

Zhai Ying is really reluctant to eat, because she knows that this nest is likely to be Grandpa Du's rations for Grandpa Du or Grandma Du at noon or at night, she wants to eat, and Grandpa Du will be hungry if she drinks Grandma Du.

She experiences the taste of hunger every day, of course she knows that it is uncomfortable, but she can't help but eat, she knows that since Grandma Du has taken it out, then she must eat.

"Thank you, Grandma Du. Zhai Ying took the head of the nest with tears in her eyes, gnawed it off with her teeth and held it in her mouth.

The nest head is too hard, not easy to swallow, you must first soak it in the mouth with saliva, and then swallow it slowly, and there is that eating little by little is to eat less, this one nest head is a person's ration for a day.

"You kid, thank you, go study. ”

"Hmm. Zhai Ying nodded, and secretly swore that when she grew up in the future, she would definitely honor Grandpa Du and Grandma Du.

The old couple has no children, just two people, they treat Zhai Ying as their own granddaughter, otherwise they can teach her so hard, and give her a nest to eat, you must know that food is life.

The old couple didn't want to see Zhai Ying starve if they ate a bite less, but they also knew that it was impossible to keep Zhai Ying from starving, because even if they gave Zhai Ying all the rations of the old couple, Zhai Ying would also starve.

It's too little, too little to eat, the rations of the two people are given to Zhai Ying, and Zhai Ying can't be fed, it's impossible to even be half-full, and they still have to live, only if they continue to live, can they help Zhai Ying more.

。。。。。。

In the city, today Ye Lin did not go to the pigeon market outside Desheng Gate, nor did he go to other pigeon markets, but walked around Tiananmen Square, the imperial capital is the capital, and there are many people who come here from other places every day.

Of course, most of these people are here to do business, take a look at the imperial capital by the way, and walk around, and Tiananmen Square is the best choice, and some people are specially here to play, these people are definitely not bad for money.

Inspired by Chen Jing yesterday, Ye Lin is going to come here to try, even if it doesn't work, there is nothing to lose, but this place is too close to home, so you have to pay a little attention.

You can't shout here like you did in the pigeon market, you can only ask one by one.

"Do you want peanuts and melon seeds?" Seeing a few people coming, Ye Lin hurriedly went up and asked.

"Don't. ”

Hearing that people said no, Ye Lin didn't entangle and left directly.

A middle-aged couple happened to come behind him, and Ye Lin hurriedly went over and asked, "Do you want peanuts and melon seeds?"

"Hey, little friend, are you going to come out to do business when you're so old?" The middle-aged woman saw that Ye Lin was a child, so she half-squatted down and asked.

"The imperial capital is the imperial capital, and such a big child knows how to do business. The middle-aged man nodded and sighed.

This made Ye Lin look black, this couple is really interesting, if you want it, don't want it, what is this for, one asks, one sighs, what do you think of Ye Lin.

"Uncle and aunt, do you want to? If you don't want me, I'll leave. ”

"How much do you have these melon seeds?" asked the middle-aged woman.

Ye Lin hurriedly took out a bag from his schoolbag and said, "Five cents a bag." ”

"Five cents a bag? So expensive? Two cents is about the same. The middle-aged man shook his head and said.

Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the middle-aged woman gave him a roll of the eyes, and then said to Ye Lin: "Little friend, you are really expensive, a bag like this is sold for two cents at most." ”
