Chapter 43: Be thick-skinned
Lin Aiguo saw that his uncle was gone, and when he looked back and saw his wife in pain, his originally gloomy face turned into a face full of guilt and worry. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Xiaofen, how is it? Where did you fall, does it hurt? He asked anxiously.
Guan Lanfen glanced at him, and then said, "Nonsense, of course it hurts, a solid butt fell to the ground, do you say it hurts?" ”
"That's... I'll see if the fall is serious," he said, and stepped forward to take a look.
When Guan Lanfen heard her husband's words, her face turned red, she glanced at him fiercely, and said in annoyance, "What do you see, are you stupid?" ”
Lin Aiguo reacted at this time, his daughter was still on the side, and such an intimate move was really inappropriate.
made a big red face, and the gloomy mood just now was swept away, Lin Aiguo scratched his head and looked at his wife's smile and didn't speak.
Lin Caiwei tried her best to reduce her sense of existence, and asked casually, "Mom, where is the safflower oil, I'll rub it for you."
"In the second drawer on the left side of that hall, you look for it," Guan Lanfen thought for a while and said.
Lin Caiwei turned around to find safflower oil and was about to rub it for Guan Lanfen, but Lin Aiguo refused, on the grounds that children know how to massage, and the strength is not enough, so the two couples went back to the room to rub the medicine.
When she turned around, she went back to the room to change the sheets and quilt covers, as well as the dirty clothes from this week, and her parents' had already taken them out, otherwise she was embarrassed to disturb her parents to show her affection.
In the past, she didn't like hygiene, so now she changes her bed sheets every two weeks, which is clean and comfortable.
Taking advantage of the time when the clothes were stirring in the washing machine, Lin Caiwei took out "Journey to the West" and continued to read the chapter that she didn't finish at noon, the more she watched, the more interesting it became, in fact, there is a big difference between the original book and the TV series.
If the original work is a realistic dark school, then the TV series is an adult and children's drama that has been ********, although it is also good-looking, it always loses the essence of the original work.
After reading the book for a while, she took her attention away from the book with difficulty and bleached her clothes and dried them.
Looking at the time at nine o'clock in the evening, she suddenly remembered the soaked coarse grains, turned on the kitchen light, and the water was a little muddy, and a layer of white foam floated on it, which means that the water should be changed, otherwise the coarse grains will be a little spoiled tomorrow.
When all the soaked grains and coarse grains were replaced with water, it was already half an hour later, and after quickly washing up, she had to go back to the room to draw another sketch, and she couldn't fall for a day, not to mention, Lin Caiwei really likes to paint.
After finishing the painting, she was still a little uneasy, turned around and went out of the room again, checked the spices used in the fried potatoes she was going to sell tomorrow, and changed the water for soaking the potatoes, and then went back to sleep with peace of mind.
The next day, Lin Caiwei was not woken up by the alarm clock, but by the sound from the kitchen.
She was confused for a while, rubbed her eyes, stretched, reached for a touch on the table, put on her clothes in the dark, then turned on the light and combed her hair a few times, glanced at the alarm clock, it was half past four in the morning, and she yawned and went out of the room.
"Weiwei, why did you get up, sleep for a while, it's still early, you can sleep for a few more hours", Guan Lanfen, who was peeling the eggs, looked up and saw her daughter, and said distressedly.
"Hehe, Mom, it's early, I just don't feel at ease to get up and take a look, after all, today is more important, I have to be prepared", Lin Caiwei replied mischievously.
"You kid, it's up to you, you better go to sleep, just let me and your mother come here", Lin Aiguo, who was cutting meat, also persuaded on the side.
"No, Mom and Dad, on such an important day today, we have to go into battle as a family, I have washed up", Lin Caiwei said, and stepped forward to pour the rice and glutinous rice into the boiling water.
Seeing her like this, Lin Aiguo and Guan Lanfen no longer persuaded her, but just concentrated on what they were doing.
And Lin Caiwei looked at the porridge, stirring it with a spoon from time to time to avoid sticking to the pot.
Guan Lanfen, who had peeled the preserved eggs over there, washed the preserved eggs and gave them to her husband to chop, and she was using a newly bought utensil similar to pounding garlic to mash the soaked peanuts with some water.
When the porridge is half-cooked, pour the mashed peanuts into the porridge and cook them together, and after a while, the house exudes a sweet smell of peanuts, which makes people's appetite move when they smell it.
After cooking the peanut porridge, Lin Aiguo wrapped the handle with a handkerchief, lifted it down and put it aside, and then cooked the eight-treasure porridge, preserved eggs and lean meat.
Since there is only one honeycomb coal that can cook porridge, it was not all made until almost seven o'clock, and the heat retention of the porridge is very good, so the peanut porridge that was made before was slightly hot.
Lin Aiguo put the three pots of porridge on the cart, and moved Lin Caiwei's two large buckets of potatoes up, as well as three small benches.
After Guan Lanfen opened the gate, Lin Aiguo pulled the car in front, which was actually equivalent to the role of a horse, cow, or donkey, while Lin Caiwei and her mother pushed behind.
After locking the door, the family hurried to the road, Lin Caiwei was okay, she saw that her father and mother were busy early in the morning, and they hadn't eaten a bite of things, and they were pushing the car so hard, and they felt uncomfortable.
I hope to make some money as soon as possible and buy a tricycle, so it's easier.
When they arrived at the market, it was already half past seven, Lin Caiwei saw that Guan Lanfen and Lin Aiguo were a little depressed, and cheered them up, "Dad, Mom, it's still early, there will be many people coming to the market in a while, don't be afraid."
Although she said this, she was also a little apprehensive in her heart, she found a vacant space, and there were all kinds of snacks sold around, fortunately, there was no porridge for sale, Lin Caiwei breathed a sigh of relief.
Guan Lanfen took out two benches from the car and laid wooden boards on them, while Lin Aiguo moved the porridge pot by pot, Lin Caiwei took down the small bench, and the price sign she wrote last night.
The three brands are written on them, a box of peanut porridge five cents, a box of eight treasure porridge seven cents, and a box of preserved egg and lean pork porridge eight cents.
She placed them in front of the pot, conspicuously and without covering the porridge in the pot.
Waiting for Lin Aiguo to move Lin Caiwei's potatoes down, the couple who had nothing to do seemed to be a little overwhelmed, wiping their sweat, not knowing whether to sit or stand.
"Patriotic, why don't you buy it?" , Guan Lanfen saw that there were people standing in the hawker stalls next to her to buy things, and there was no one here in her house, so she was a little anxious.
Lin Caiwei also wondered why no one came to buy it, and after waiting for a while, she thought of a way.
"Delicious eight-treasure porridge, fragrant and sweet, only seven cents a box, seven cents a box!" She put her hands on either side of her cheeks and shouted in a trumpet shape.
This time, it obviously frightened Guan Lanfen and his wife, they glanced at each other, a little embarrassed, Lala's own daughter said, "Weiwei, is it useful for you to shout like this?" Otherwise, stop shouting, everyone is watching."
Guan Lanfen was a little uncomfortable by the people around her, Lin Caiwei smiled, Too young, too simple, people in the countryside are like this, easy to be shy, if in the future, it will only take seven or eight years This marketing method is on the street, everyone is used to it.
"It's okay, Mom, you guys are watching from the side, let's be thick-skinned~", Lin Caiwei didn't care about the eyes of the people around her.
She continued, "Delicious preserved egg and lean porridge is fragrant and fresh, and it doesn't cost money if it's not delicious, just a box of eight cents."
After Lin Caiwei finished shouting, she saw that there were already people around her, but she just stopped and watched from the side, and did not step forward.
She didn't care, and continued, "A box of peanut porridge is five cents, with pickles, pickles are free, don't miss it."
Sure enough, it is human nature to love to take advantage, and after shouting this, an aunt has already come over with her daughter.
"Little girl, you said that peanut porridge is five cents a box, and pickles are free to take at will, is it true?" , The aunt asked suspiciously, obviously unable to believe that there would be such a good thing.
"Of course it's true, it's just that, in order not to cause waste, auntie can't take too much at once, you finish eating halfway, if it's not enough, you can come over and ask for it", Lin Caiwei smiled sweetly and explained in a coquettish voice.
"That's it, it's okay, bring me a box to try", the aunt said excitedly, thinking that it would be stupid not to take advantage of it.
When Lin Caiwei heard this, she showed a big smile and replied, "Okay, you wait a minute", she said, quickly took out a lunch box, then opened the pot with peanut porridge, and gave the aunt a full box, and a few pickles, all of which were a lot.
Seeing that there were a lot, the aunt laughed happily and quickly handed the five cents to Lin Caiwei, as if she was afraid that she would regret it.
I took the porridge to the side and found a stone to sit on, I couldn't wait to open the lunch box and taste it with a plastic spoon, with pickles, it was not too refreshing, she took a few bites, handed the porridge to her daughter, got up and went to buy a box, after all, it was cheap, you can buy two boxes of rice noodles for a bowl of rice noodles.
This time, Lin Caiwei also scooped some eight-treasure porridge and preserved egg and lean porridge and put them in the aunt's lunch box, so that she could taste them, and come back again when they were delicious, the aunt was very happy to hear it, and immediately turned around and brought it to her daughter.
The people who were watching around saw that it was really true, and began to buy one by one.
