Mrs. Liu also wants to burn paper at home, take Ye Wenxin and Shi Gui to the shallow river beach, draw a circle with lime powder, and burn yellow paper for fruits in this circle, the shallow river beach is full of sand and stones, and the tin foil ingots that are lit and burned will be made into fly ash, and the wind will roll up to the sky.

There are lights everywhere on the riverbank, and there are piles of people burning paper on the river beach, some people chant scriptures and some people just want to have an idea, a basket of ingots is burned, and they go to the grain field to catch the market.

The river is extremely shallow, there is a row of lights floating on the river surface, three or five groups go downstream, there are small flags on the river lanterns, and the words of the Emperor of Taishang Zhongyuan forgive sins and pure void are written, and there are also those who are put to the lonely souls, and there are also those who are put to their families.

Ye Wenxin took out a few fruits from the purse, and put them in front of the fire to make an offering of fruit, don't look at it is a new mourning, Shi Gui squatted to accompany her, handed her tin foil, watched her burn the ingots paper money like that, put her hands together and said something, and helped her up.

I didn't expect that the river beach was full of stones, and she should bring a mattress out, but no one brought these things along the way, but she was blind, and when she went back, she had to take the medicated oil to wipe it for her, so as not to bruise.

When you come to light the lamp, it will be lively, you chase me, it is even more noisy after the release, and it is not so lonely to follow the crowd, Mrs. Liu still has to sell pickles on the grain field, Shi Gui entrusted her to sell handkerchiefs, and took Ye Wenxin home at home.

The water chestnut flashed a pair of big eyes: "Sister is really not going? ”

Shi Gui shook his head: "We're not going, you go, you see something fun and beautiful, come back and tell me." "Water chestnut is still a little girl, she can say anything she sees for a long time, Shi Gui likes her very much, if she can come and move around more, the yard will be lively.

The water chestnut crisp deserved a sound, carried the basket and followed behind Mrs. Liu, the four of them walked to the side of the road, and they could already see the door of the Song family, so they could separate, and the crowd walked towards the grain field, and they left the excitement behind.

Outside the bustling can still hear the sound of people far away, and when you enter the house and close the door, you can't hear it at all, Shi Gui is still embroidering a handkerchief under the lamp, and the knots are not sold until the Dragon Boat Festival Lixia, which girl who wants to go to the field still wears a skirt and hangs tassels, she thinks for a long time, and the only thing that can be sold is a handkerchief.

When Chunyan came, she packed Shi Gui's things and sorted them out, and at first glance it was Shi Ju's care, the clothes were neatly folded, divided into spring, summer, autumn and winter, and even the makeup and paper and pen were packed together, and the two of them were in a hurry at this time, and they probably recognized the words, but they couldn't write, and they tossed a lot, and wrote a letter of hello.

Shi Gui is now sleeping in the same room with Ye Wenxin, she originally didn't want anyone to go to the night, but now she can't leave anyone, and she doesn't want Shi Gui to sleep underground, so let Shi Gui sleep in the same bed with her.

Shi Gui embroidered a handkerchief, raised his head and rubbed his eyes, the lamp was too dim to embroider anymore, Ye Wenxin bit his lip and watched her sort out the silk thread, and said after a while: "What are you selling at that rally?"

Shi Gui was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "When I was a child, I went to the village market to sell some ordinary prices, including iron plows for sale, baskets for weaving, and some rouge pollen for sale in the city.

Ye Wenxin bit his lip: "I don't know, what can I do, I can also exchange money." "She can't eat the Song family for the rest of her life and rely on the Song family, the old lady Song said that she sold all the things given by the Ye family, so she changed the money, the younger brother didn't know, but she knew something, hundreds of boxes were transported into Jinling, and when they left, the old lady Song slowly returned the boat.

There are always some left, but this batch of things is considered to be stolen goods that have not been recovered, if the case is not settled quickly, it will be found on the Song family if it is not guaranteed, and it will not be able to exchange it for money that can live in peace for a lifetime.

My younger brother's food and clothing in Suizhou also depends on the Song family, and she is even more so here, when she was young, she was also with Shi Gui, and the two of them nested in the quilt, discussing how the Yan family made a living outside and what kind of income they had.

Only then did she realize that the ones she had learned were not as good as the servants, Mrs. Liu could still pickle a pickle, and the water chestnut could tie a knot, not to mention Shi Gui, it was her turn, and she knew that her livelihood was difficult.

Shi Gui knew a little, Ye Wenxin has always asked about the price of rice and oil prices, these things that she never worried about before, all asked carefully, first when she was under the fence, and wanted to find a reason to persuade her, so that she could live at ease, and then I realized that she had the intention of setting up her own household.

Shi Gui thought about it for a while and said, "We can do everything else, except for this, there is nothing good to do." Saying that, Yang raised the handkerchief in her hand, and since she wanted to save money for herself, Shi Gui made an idea for her: "In a few days, I will have to catch small crabs, and I can boil crab sauce and sell it." ”

The Song family has no mountain, the back piece is the owner, it turns out that the Zheng family, took the title and returned to the court, the sage gave Princess Ankang, such a piece of mountain goods, this season is the time to pick pine mushrooms, others dare not go inside, because it is a fresh mountain treasure, a basket of mountain mushrooms can be sold for three or four hanging money.

I can't beat the idea of the mountain, so I go to the idea of fetching water, in this place is not starving, Shi Gui and the two of the water chestnut talked about the world, and then inquired that there were children who went into the water to catch crabs, these little crabs are afraid that there are hundreds of them in a basket, the soft shell is less meat, and the boiling sauce is the freshest, and it is just right to take it with steamed bread and noodles.

The crab sauce family will boil, and if it takes a lot of effort to sell it, they can only go to the market, Ye Wenxin shook his head when he heard it: "This can't be done, although it doesn't cost, but it doesn't make any money." ”

Shi Gui pursed his lips and smiled: "I said that when I went to the other garden, I dug bamboo shoots and sold them, there are often people on the mountain who come to collect mountain goods, the bamboo in that place is so white and long, and if you are lucky, you can also set bamboo chickens and bamboo partridges, which thing is not a small amount of money, I will only do these, but the girl will know more than me, those incense balls and incense powder bags, I will not do it." ”

Spices are expensive, and they still can't be sold in the countryside, Ye Wenxin frowned and thought hard, and from time to time he said one out, Shi Gui followed an idea, perfume is indeed Ye Wenxin's specialty, but the raw materials are rare, the incense shops are all making their own incense, where will they go out to collect, and the rough beads can only be sold for fifteen or sixteen Wen, which is less than embroidering a handkerchief.

Except for the little work in hand, the two of them couldn't think of the way to make a fortune, but you and I have said so much, Ye Wenxin's brows have decreased a few points, and the water chestnut came back to see that the headlights in their house have not been extinguished, and sent Shi Gui a velvet flower.

A small red velvet flower also costs ten dollars, Shi Gui gives her some of the food she has on weekdays, and she gets the fat and fat on her head, so she thinks about buying some and giving it back to her.

"My sister's handkerchief is very popular with many people, and it sells better than my mother's pickles. "The people who live here are all peasant households, and the silk weavers are either in the city or supervised by people, Shi Gui's craftsmanship is ordinary in the eyes of silk weavers and embroiderers, but the countryside is fine, and a handkerchief is five or six cents, but there is also a profit.

Ye Wenxin lamented that his livelihood was difficult, and he moved a small pestle and whispered to Shi Gui under the corridor: "Many people inquired about the girl today, and they all asked my mother to push her back." ”

Ye Wenxin is different from others when he only stands, water chestnut and Shi Gui can talk and laugh in one place, and Ye Wenxin does not dare to be presumptuous, those people asked once, and then asked Shi Gui again, Shi Gui smiled: "I'm still a girl, why do I want to ask this." ”

Most of the tenants here, although they are tenants, they are also good people, where are they willing to marry a big girl to go back, and they can't manage and can't work, and they can't get it back.

The water chestnut blinked: "Sister Shi Gui was born well." "In the Song family, he has already come out, and even more so here, Ye Wenxin couldn't make up his mind at a glance, but Shi Gui was asked a lot, and when he heard that it was a girl, half of it shrank.

The excitement on the grain field has not dispersed at this time, Shi Gui received the velvet flowers of water chestnut, but he did not immediately put them on his head, Ye Wenxin kept filial piety, she also restrained not wearing bright clothes, originally Ye liked plain, Shi Gui except for Ye Wenxin when he had a few red and purple ones, the rest were light green beige sapphire blue, just right.

In the dead of night, the markets outside were all dispersed, Ye Wenxin thought: "I see that the door is pasted with yellow paper, on time and according to the section, I also write some, buy a New Year's painting, I can also paint, and then there is a statue of the stove king, please God card, I can always animate the brush." ”

If someone else had to persuade her, but she didn't have any scruples about Shi Gui, and she didn't think that any boudoir handiwork could not fall into the hands of outsiders, and it was always a reassuring thing to have an entry in the future.

It's a good thing that she has this idea, the Song family has no news, waiting in the small courtyard, it's better to find something to do, the next day the two cut the paper, here Buddhism and Taoism are worshipped, the Ye family also collected a lot of Buddha statues, Ye Wenxin has been chanting Buddha with Mrs. Ye since childhood, a stroke of Guanyin is drawn, Mrs. Liu is surprised.

"I didn't expect the girl to have this ability. "Literacy and painting is the origin of the family, Mrs. Liu only believed it so far, and sighed for Ye Wenxin: "Poor one, Miss Qianjin is in trouble, not as good as that girl." ”

Shi Gui saw that she was working again as soon as she got started, and sighed: "The girl paints so finely, how much effort does it take, we can provide it for ourselves, and those outside have water, moon and lotus platform, but take an idea, such a fine one, don't even dare to ask the price." ”

There are many paintings, but few are sold, and I can't think of buying these before the New Year's Day, Ye Wenxin's stroke is not very useful, or the needle and thread solve the urgency, the string of tassels is all kinds of patterns, she holds a handful of silk in her hand, and beats the frog knot and the double swallow knot and the double fish knot, all of which Shi Gui will not.

The water chestnut looked at it without blinking, and opened her mouth: "How can the girl be so clever." ”

Ye Wenxin pursed his lips, his eyes turned red, and he held back his tears: "It's not a coincidence for me, it turns out that ...... It turns out that Ruiye is the most coincidental. The water chestnut didn't know anything, but Shi Gui closed his mouth, and the two of them didn't say a word for a long time.

These knots are sold cheaply in the countryside, Shi Gui thought about it for a long time, only Tuo Gaojia took it to the city, but Gaojia was not good at words, and he might be willing to take their legs, counting the days when he was coming again, he made some fried small fish to prepare.

Gao Jia didn't expect Shi Gui to wait for him by the door, his ears were slightly red, and he stumbled: "You have, what's the matter." ”

Shi Gui put the knot in the small basket, which really troubled him, but he couldn't help but speak: "I want to ask if these things may be sent to the city to be consigned, does the little brother of the Gao family have a familiar store?"

How could he run a pollen shop for a man, and he wanted to ask Shi Gui why he wanted to sell these, so the rough envoy at home was third-class, and he didn't think about selling things, but Shi Gui asked him, so he didn't refuse, and took the basket: "For, ask for you." ”
