Xuan Anrui came back after a while, holding three hot buns in his hand, and handed one of them to Cai Pozi: "Cai Po eats steamed buns." ”

"I don't eat, I'm close to home, I'll go home and drink some porridge in a while, I'm old, and I can't eat in this cold wind. My stall is small, and I don't buy more vegetables in the afternoon in winter, so I'll close the stall. "Cai Pozi is honest, and she has already started to pack her things.

Xuan Anrui was not easy to force, so he smiled at the vegetable woman and nodded. Then he turned around and handed the bun to Xuan Miaoer: "Then sister, eat quickly, it's cold this day, and your body will only warm up after eating." ”

Xuan Miaoer took the steamed buns, and the brothers and sisters ate them, Xuan Anrui's own vegetarian buns, and the meat buns he bought for Granny Cai and Xuan Miaoer.

After eating half of it, Xuan Miaoer realized: "Brother, how do you eat vegetarian buns, it's just a penny." ”

"I like vegetarian buns, they taste fresh. Xuan Anrui stuffed the bun into his mouth in a few bites.

Xuan Miao'er handed over the one that the vegetable lady hadn't eaten: "Brother, you also ate this, when the boy grows taller, eat more and grow taller to protect us." ”

Xuan Anrui didn't answer: "Keep it for my brother to take back and eat." ”

Xuan Miaoer directly broke the bun: "Brother broke it, you can't take it back if you don't eat it." Let's buy a few more for the family later. ”

Xuan Anrui frowned and took half of it: "Then you are eating half of it." ”

"Brother, I can't eat, I'm full. "Xuan Miao'er is telling the truth, her eleven-year-old little girl, such a big meat bun is really full.

Cai Pozi listened to the brother and sister talking on the side, and sighed in her heart that this child is so good, who has such a good blessing, and after cleaning up, she greeted them and pushed the cart home.

Xuan Miaoer doesn't like to ask other people's private affairs, Cai Pozi has always taken care of the vegetable stall alone, and there is no one to replace her, but this is someone's private matter, and Xuan Miaoer doesn't want to worry about other people's affairs.

Xuan Anrui took out the kettle he brought, and the two drank water. After a while, the digestive mind can also warm up the body.

"Brother, I found that you are especially liked by girls, you see that our business is much better today. If you dress up. But I'm going to fascinate a girl. There were no outsiders, Xuan Miao'er began to joke.

"You little girl, you say everything, and you're not shy. Xuan Anrui blushed when he was said, but he didn't know how to refute it.

"Hee-hee. Brother, let's just chat casually, what kind of woman do you like?" Xuan Miaoer thought about what kind of daughter-in-law her brother could take in the future?

"I don't know, I want to think about this a few years later, now we have just separated, we want to take the eldest sister back, we have to build a house, marry a daughter-in-law for the second uncle, and the younger brother will go to school, and the family will be stable. Think about it again. Xuan Anrui is an adolescent, and his voice has just changed a little, but his tone and movements are more mature than his peers.

Xuan Miao'er felt a little heartache for this little brother, he was actually so much older than him, at this time, looking at a thirteen-year-old boy, thinking so much, he was also under pressure, and he really had to think about how to make more money in the future.

In the afternoon, seeing that the sun was in the west, the two closed the stall and went to buy some more that the family needed. Xuan Miaoer didn't buy steamed buns this time, but bought noodles and meat, because the money to buy steamed buns is not as good as buying noodles and meat.

Although his family is still struggling with poverty. However, it is okay to improve occasionally, not to mention going back, Liu can't wrap pure meat buns, this meat filling must be more vegetables and less meat, but thinking about steaming a pot of buns at home, Xuan Miaoer is happy. Now that the family is separated, there is no restriction on what to eat.

Bought noodles and the brother and sister went to the butcher shop again, and suddenly the door god in front of a grocery store on the side of the road attracted Xuan Miaoer's attention, she walked over and picked up the two door gods and looked at it, she really didn't want to evaluate this painting, this painting is too rough.

The shopkeeper saw that Xuan Miaoer had the intention of buying, and hurriedly came over to introduce: "Girl, our god is the original painting in the palace of the capital, although we imitate it, but it is also nine points out of ten." ”

Xuan Miaoer just saw the gods, thinking that such a door god could be sold, and the paintings he painted were dozens of times better than this, and he looked at a few New Year's paintings on the side, and the paintings were also simple, but they were more than auspicious, auspicious and wishful, and so on.

However, it is better to inquire about the price first, and then you can make an appointment about how many raw materials you should buy: "How much is a pair of gods in this door?"

"This is a pair of fifty wen, and if the girl likes it, she will accept forty-six wen. The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.

In this era, there are not many people who can write and paint, so this god, New Year's paintings, couplets and the like are also a luxury, but which one has a happy picture at the end of the year, according to the customs, will buy it.

"It's still a while before the end of the year, I'll take a look first, and then buy it when I need it, it's troublesome for the shopkeeper." Xuan Miaoer was a little embarrassed in her heart, looked around, and asked the price, but she didn't buy it, but the conditions of her own house are here, how can she spend this money lightly.

The shopkeeper was unhappy, but he still had a reluctant smile on his face: "When that girl wants to buy, don't forget the small shop." ”

"Of course, thank you. Xuan Miaoer thanked her again before leaving with Xuan Anrui, and left the store a little farther, Xuan Miaoer said to Xuan Anrui: "Brother, let's go to Bimo Zhai." ”

Xuan Anrui saw what Xuan Miaoer meant: "Do you want to paint New Year's pictures for sale?"

"Brother, you're so smart, I'm painting much better than this, when the time comes, I'll draw a look, you paint according to the pattern, we don't carve wood carvings recently, take advantage of the end of the year to make a fortune, we have to build a house next year." Xuan Miao'er calculated in her heart, the cost of one is only ten wen, and the two sheets of a pair of door gods are only twenty wen, selling for fifty wen, winning thirty wen, and then bargaining can leave twenty-five wen.

Their own family will use a pen, but also can draw a few times, not to mention how much they will draw, the sky to draw their own frame, they color, a day to draw dozens of is not a problem, this is more than two months of the New Year, can make a stroke.

Xuan Ling'er's silver is almost saved, and after half a month, you can sell a purse trick, and the money saved from selling New Year's paintings can be saved to build a house next year, and next year you will think of other ways to make money, and you have to take your time to make money, after all, you are only eleven years old, and you don't have a comprehensive understanding of this time and space, so you can't eat a fat man in one bite.

The two entered the pen and ink shop, Xuan Miaoer thanked Hua Jiye in her heart, if there was no reward for him today, he really didn't have the silver to buy so much pen and ink, this time he spent two taels of silver, and his eyes didn't blink, this is the capital.

Xuan Anrui also knew that this money was faster than wood carving, so he also helped Xuan Miaoer pick up paper and pen, the brother and sister were not very good, and they bought so many pen and ink at once, and the shopkeeper was always very puzzled, but they spent money, and they were happy, and their attitude was also very good, and finally they sent a small stack of raw edge paper.
