Chapter 101: Buy, Buy New!
"People in our town say that they are rich, there are many rich families, and the 'cyclamen' is the largest restaurant, but can't you do this?" The vegetables were sold for ten taels of silver in one day, and Shen Chenghou was also surprised, but after thinking about it, he said, "Besides, when is this, anyone can raise pigs and chickens and ducks in winter, but in the town, who can grow vegetables besides our family?"
Li Shi couldn't help but nod when he heard this, but he was a little worried when he remembered the amount of this dish: "It's our dish, if we really use it a lot in the future, what should we do if we can't supply it?"
"Mother, don't worry, our family's vegetables are already dense, and if you look at the shelves layer by layer, how many vegetables are in the house, how can they not be supplied? I still wish they would double it immediately, the ones that my sister and I picked today are all out of the room, don't look at our picks today, dare to take a look at it tomorrow morning, or that old." Tanabata immediately replied without hesitation.
It is true that the vegetables are densely planted, but she is more confident because the older vegetables in the space can grow into a large number in two days, and there is only no shortage of them if they can't be sold.
"If the price of this dish rises again, the silver that our family enters every day will really double......" Jingwen is still writing down the price of the vegetables he got back on Qixi Festival, saying that he will record the price of the vegetables, so that he will know whether it will rise or fall in the future.
Jingwen is right, now there is cabbage outside, and the fresh ones are sold for twenty-five wen a catty, and there is no place to buy them if they have money, not to mention their asparagus, and the restaurant is temporarily charged at one hundred and fifty wen a catty.
"Not to mention the future, our family ...... a day today" Shen Chenghou also glanced at the account book several times to confirm that he was not wrong, "We earned nearly twelve taels of silver in one day......
The tone sounded full of disbelief. Countryman. Who has the luxury of earning a dozen taels of silver a day?
Is it more than twelve taels? According to her family, there is nothing now, it is indeed a lot. Think about those who go to restaurants to eat, and the rewards of rich people are not just ten taels, and if you want to buy a house and land in the future, what can you do if you don't save a little money?
Qixi shook his head, and planned not to say anything first, and when the money in the family gradually increased, my father and mother naturally didn't think it was unusual, so I told the thing about packing a few more kinds of stuffing during the day. As for what I thought of later, I didn't mention the matter of selling her family's vegetables from the town to the county seat for the time being, and I would talk about it when she thought about it.
The whole family thought that this was feasible, but they had to ask the "cyclamen" side first, and then they thought of going with Tanabata.
After all these things were finished, Qixi mentioned the things he had been thinking about for a day, and before he spoke, he dragged the small stone to him, and stretched out his hand to pull the thin padded jacket on the little brother: "Mother, our family has a little silver now, do you have to add some winter clothes or something." I see that the day is getting colder and colder, and you look at the padded jacket of the stone. This should be colder and designated not frost-resistant. ”
Xiao Shi sat there obediently and did not say a word, looking back and forth at his father and his third sister with big eyes, this child is usually clever and sensible, and he will quickly understand things at this time.
The third sister wanted to buy new things for the family, but he didn't hurry up and ask for it, knowing that the money that the family now has has just earned, and it is still more than others.
Li turned his head and looked at the clothes on his youngest son in such a daze, his eyes suddenly turned red after a long time, and he hugged his youngest son in his arms: "Buy, Xi'er said yes, let's buy cotton clothes and bedding, why didn't my mother think of it earlier?"
Qixi looked at the little stone obediently snuggled in the arms of his mother, why did he not expect it, that is not to think, there is no silver in his hand to think of what can he do, in the past years can the mother not worry about dressing the child warmly?
Shen Chenghou sat aside and didn't speak, no one could disagree, the family hadn't saved much silver, but look at the child didn't even have a decent piece of clothes, let alone this, that is, the clothes on his body were thin to the touch, how could he be reluctant to buy them?
After a long time, he reached out and patted his wife: "Okay, the children are all looking, let's make new winter clothes this year, why can't we let the children freeze." ”
"Daddy, what are you doing here?" Looking at Daddy's uncomfortable energy, Qixi laughed first, "We have silver in our hands now, it's a good thing to buy things, why are they all uncomfortable, if that's the case, then let's not buy it......"
"No, why don't you buy it?" Li Shi quickly opened his mouth when he heard this, and when he saw the little girl's narrow expression, he realized that Lu Dao was deliberate, and couldn't help but laugh and scold, "You are a monster girl, you will laugh at your mother." ”
Seeing that his father and mother had agreed, Qixi hurriedly squeezed the eldest brother aside with great interest, sat down by himself and said with a pen: "Mother, what are we going to buy this time, I'll remember, let's buy it in the next few days, maybe there will be new cotton clothes to wear in the next set."
"Look at this child's happiness, what else can we buy, not just the few things you said. Li also let go of his youngest son, thinking carefully about what to buy, "Let's just buy them all, cotton jackets and pants, and some new cotton in the bedding at home, or we can't carry it after three or nine days." ”
"Let's make new cotton jackets and cotton pants, there's nothing in the inside, let's tear new cloth for the child......" Looking at his youngest son's eyes that lit up all of a sudden, Shen Chenghou affirmed again, "Just pull the new cloth, make a new one, and let my youngest son also wear a new cotton jacket." ”
"Daddy is so nice. Xiao Shi was clever, he didn't speak before because he was afraid that his father and mother would be embarrassed because of his rarity, but now that the whole family agreed to make clothes, he hurried to his father's side, "Father and mother do it too, or I don't want to." ”
Seeing that several children nodded with him, Shen Chenghou became more and more happy in his heart, and nodded with his wife, mainly because the family still has to set up a stall this winter, and it is not worth it to really save those few people who are frozen.
Qixi wrote down a pen, and after remembering it, he looked at the eldest brother who was sitting on the side smiling and didn't speak, and suddenly said: "Daddy, I can't see anything about our paper, let's buy a new pen, ink, paper and inkstone for my eldest brother and second brother, and give us a few of the old ones, okay?"
"Huh?" Jingwen didn't expect the little sister to say this, so he hurriedly waved his hand, "No, what to buy, those things are all expensive, and besides, not all of our family is very good, but you don't need to buy it." ”
Qixi still didn't know what the situation was in the road, so he raised the brush in his hand and said: "What's good, why don't I see it? Look at how long this brush has been used, it's bald, and this paper and ink, I touch it with my hand and smell it again, and I know that the road is the worst, and the paper is faint in one stroke, so I use this paper and pen to go to the future, brother, do you still want to improve? Besides, we don't have to buy the lobby brother They use so good, but it has to be almost the same." ”
Jingwen was speechless by the little sister, and turned his head to persuade the second brother together, but he was also full of joy when he heard him: "Yes, let's buy a new one for the eldest brother, and the word eldest brother should be written on the paper that looks better." ”
"Buy. Qixi smiled and opened his mouth to continue to persuade, so she heard her father suddenly say, "Even if you don't buy anything else, you have to buy this, you can't save on reading, and in the future, except for the day of the market, you two don't work with the family all day, you have to take the time to read and write, and take the stone with you, don't forget everything for a few months, and when the spring begins, you have to go back to the school." ”
Li and several children stopped talking, this was the first time that Shen Chenghou had directly talked about the child's study, and it was in such an unquestionable tone of certainty.
"What's the matter?" Shen Chenghou saw that his wife and children didn't speak, thinking that he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly explained, "I think that our family will work hard, and I will save money in the beginning of spring, and the children's studies can't help but be delayed." ”
Li smiled and looked at her husband's cautious way and said, "What are you doing here? ”
When Shen Chenghou heard this, he smiled with confidence: "I don't care about who cares about being a father." ”
The whole family was very happy, and after a long time, Jing Wencai suppressed his uncalm heart, and said in a steady voice as much as possible: "Then listen to my father, my second brother and I will study hard in the future, and we can't let our family spend that money in vain." ”
"Big brother, don't say that, my father and mother are not afraid that you don't have to work, but I'm afraid that you will be too tired of yourself. When Qixi heard this, he quickly made a scared look and said.
"This girl ......" Jingwen was also amused, Zhilu Dao's family felt guilty because he let him and his second brother come down, but in fact, he felt in his heart that it was a pity that he couldn't study, but his family remembered it like this, but his heart was warmer than anything else.
"Mother, are we going to buy some things for my father and mother this time, our family hasn't bought anything for my father and mother, this stall has been set up until now, everything is given by my father and mother......" Shen Chenghou, who was smiling and looking at his wife and children, suddenly spoke again.
Li was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that the father and mother in her husband's mouth were her mother's father, which was full of joy, and then nodded and said busily: "The old house for the father and mother can not be missing, and making a dress for the old man in winter is also a little bit of our heart." ”
Qixi was a little hesitant when she heard it, there was nothing on the other side of her grandmother's house, but she felt a little confused about what to say on the other side of the old house.
It's not that she doesn't want to buy things for her milk, the milk is thinking about them in her heart, and in her heart she has the love that a grandmother should have, but the key is that the old house is not only milk, but also some people who regard their family as a thorn in their side.
Obviously, Shen Chenghou also has this concern, thinking of the words in the mouths of the sister-in-law and the fourth child, he can't make up his mind, but in the end, he is worried about the old lady, and the mother of the family gave them the more than three taels of silver that he had saved with great difficulty, so that his heart is still a little warm, and now he is making new clothes by himself, how can he not make them for his mother, so he said: "Okay, then buy them all." ”
The brothers and sisters glanced at each other, and they didn't say anything, and they couldn't stop the matter of honoring the elderly. (To be continued......)
