Chapter 020: A Bowl of Dimes
With the support of their father Xu Qinghe, the brother and sister rubbed the cold powder and worked harder.
Ji Ying sighed and quietly asked Xu Qinghe: "Now, can you sell things yourself?"
"It should be possible. Xu Qinghe replied while making wooden barrels: "The last time I was working, I passed by the county and saw that many people were selling things, since their brother and sister wanted to do it, let them do it." ”
"You can't lose money left and right. Xu Qinghedao: "I won't do anything else, but these two buckets can still be done, and if I can't do it at that time, it's better to keep this bucket at home and use it myself." ”
Now, this is an old house, and there is a lack of everything at home, so Xu Qinghe can only take advantage of the work to come back and do some at night.
"Then let their brothers and sisters toss and hit a wall, so it's naturally fine. ”
Ji Ying is hopeless about this matter of selling cold powder.
"There should be two barrels of these, right?"
There was no electric light, and by the moonlight, I could vaguely see that the well water was getting thicker and thicker.
"We'll rub it again. ”
Xu Nianhua hasn't done it either, but her hands are soft, but she is afraid that if she doesn't succeed in the first time, she won't be able to sell it tomorrow, so she feels that she would rather make some effort and rub it for a while.
"That's fine. ”
The brother and sister each have a basin, Xu Nianan is a man, he has a lot of strength, and he rubs it quickly, and in the end, Xu Nianhua's basin was finished with Xu Nianan's help.
Lying on the bed, Xu Nianhua realized that rubbing cold powder was really a hard job!
Her hands are very sore, and there is a bubble for chopping wood, but fortunately her left hand is not soaked, otherwise, she would have to rub the cold powder to rub the bubble.
In the early morning, the sky was bright, Xu Nianhua slept fragrantly, and when she heard the movement outside, she struggled to get up, and her hand was sore and weak.
"Dad, why are you making buckets so early?" Xu Nianhua saw that Xu Qinghe had already made the bucket into shape, and the bucket that had just been made was very beautiful in color.
"Dad, your craft is so good. ”
Xu Nianhua praised that these two buckets are particularly good-looking.
"Get the bucket ready, and you'll be ready to use it today. Xu Qinghe smiled honestly: "I won't do anything else." ”
"Thank you, Dad. ”
Xu Nianhua said sweetly, Ji Ying went to the house to reclaim the vegetable soil, she grabbed a little rice, and planned to boil a porridge, the second brother Xu Nianan went up the mountain to chop firewood early in the morning, and the firewood at home was too short.
"Wow, we're making really good jelly. ”
Xu Nianhua got up early and saw the cold powder in the cold water through the basin, which was crystal clear, like a transparent jelly, and it looked good.
She found half a catty of brown sugar, boiled it, and then found a cup with a lid and put it in the well water, so that the brown sugar water could also be cooler.
After lunch.
"Tired, aren't you?"
Xu Nianan carried two new buckets, one of which contained a bucket of cold powder, and the other a few bowls and half a bucket of well water.
Xu Nianhua used a cloth bag, carried brown sugar water, and traveled lightly, but he was sweating profusely under the scorching sun.
"I'm not tired, second brother, it's you who are tired. Xu Nianhua misses the cars of the future, if there is a tricycle, their brothers and sisters don't have to work so hard at all.
"By the way, you say, how are we going to sell this jelly?"
Xu Nianan thought all the way, and he didn't know how much to sell.
"A bowl of two dimes. Xu Nianhua replied.
Xu Nianan was stunned for a moment, glanced at Xu Nianhua, and said, "Won't it be too expensive?"
