044 The people in the village are sophisticated
Mrs. Qian runs a tofu factory with her two sons, although it is hard, life is not bad.
Lin Xiao looked at Mrs. Qian, who was obviously not yet forty years old, but her hair was already half white, and she was a little emotional. People say that there are three major hardships in life - supporting the boat, striking iron, and grinding tofu. It is not easy for Mrs. Qian to pull her two eldest sons with a woman.
Mrs. Qian is a hearty woman, perhaps because she often makes tofu in the house, she is not like the red skin of ordinary women in the village. Her skin is a little abnormally white, her square face and facial features are slightly larger, the kind of girl and man who looks like she looks clean and neat, not good-looking or ugly, she can only be regarded as an ordinary person.
"Rourou is here, let's buy tofu." Recently, the Shen family has bought a lot of tofu, and Mrs. Qian's attitude is particularly good. When she saw Lin Xiao's face, she said with a smile: "This is the tenant of your house, he looks really handsome." "She's a little loud and not annoying.
"Granny Qian, this is my Sister Xiaoxiao." Shen Rourou was a little timid.
"Hello Aunt Qian, I'm Lin Xiao." Greeted politely, Lin Xiao smiled and said, "I want three pieces of tofu." "Two pieces of tofu are enough to eat on weekdays, but since Lin Xiao promised to buy more, he naturally won't lie to the child.
A guest came to the door, and Mrs. Qian neatly agreed, "I'll go to Sheng." "Deliberately cut some more for them." Come here often. ”
Lin Xiao paid and nodded with a smile. I think that the people in the village are not as unreasonable as the women before, and this Qian woman looks very good. She suddenly thought of something, "Aunt Qian, I don't know if you have soy milk here?" "The food is too simple, she wants to make up for it, and now there are people in the village making tofu, and this soy milk must be indispensable.
"Yes, if you want it, I'll bring you a big bowl." Mrs. Qian was very happy, but a trace of pain flashed on her face. This thing given away for nothing is always unwilling.
Lin Xiao can somewhat understand Mrs. Qian's thoughts, a woman who pulls her two sons alone without her husband will not be able to operate it again.
"It's not necessary, I just thought, it would be nice if Aunt Qian could send us a few bowls of soy milk every day, and we could pay for it." She doesn't like to take advantage of herself, a widow with two sons is already difficult, and she won't come here to pick up the bargain.
As soon as she heard that Lin Xiao was buying soy milk, Mrs. Qian immediately laughed. "A village, what kind of money is not money, this is not an outside world." She quickly calculated in her heart that soy milk was available every day, and it didn't cost much, so she said, "I'll send you a pot every day, just give ten big money." "At this price, she said it very conscientiously.
Lin Xiao glanced at the tofu basin in his arms, and his cheeks twitched. "Auntie, it's too much." A big pot of soy milk, feed the pigs.
Mrs. Qian was stunned for a moment, thinking that she was too expensive, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Those eight big money, it can't be less." "Although this soy milk can be added to water, it also has a cost.
Lin Xiao smiled, "Auntie, you misunderstood, I mean that there are too many pots of soy milk, and there are only six people in the Shen family at home, and there are two children, so I can't drink so much." So every day you give me a third of this basin, and I will give you ten great pieces of money. But the hard aunt sent us once a day. "There is hot soy milk delivered to the door to drink, and these ten big money are worth it.
"Then where is it, I'll charge five cents." Mrs. Qian is quite embarrassed. There is a surplus of this soy milk every day, and their family uses it to feed the pigs.
"It's not easy for my aunt to make tofu, so it's decided." Lin Xiao didn't care too much, she still felt that this kind of pure natural thing was worth it.
"That's not your aunt taking possession of you, Lin Xiao, if you have anything to do in the village in the future, tell your aunt about it, you don't have the ability next to your aunt, and it's still quite good to quarrel with others."
Lin Xiao: "......" heard such kind words for the first time, so she didn't know how to answer them. "Okay, okay, I'll definitely find my aunt if there's something." With a smile, Lin Xiao left with the two children. It was only halfway that he reacted, Xu was surrounded and quarreled before, so that Mrs. Qian saw it, so she had such nondescript words.
"Aunt Qian, quite an interesting person." Lin Xiao sighed with emotion.
Shen Rourou said in a low voice: "She is a person who drills money. ”
"Huh?" Lin Xiao was surprised, Shen Rourou, this kid didn't talk lightly.
"She usually doesn't talk so well, Sister Xiaoxiao, she is good to you when you buy their things. People in the village say that she is a woman who has an eye for money, and she doesn't like to take care of the people who don't go to their house to buy tofu. "It's rare for a little girl to say so much at once.
Lin Xiao smiled, "It's good or not, in fact, I can see it myself." Don't listen to people. Besides, it is not easy for Mrs. Qian to live alone with her two sons, she didn't steal or rob, even if she loves money, there is nothing wrong with it. You see, if we buy soy milk, doesn't she ask for more money? "I gave more tofu, but in fact, people are quite real.
Lin Xiao doesn't believe in this kind of thing a lot of times, at most as a reference.
"Look at the women today, we didn't provoke them, and we didn't stop me from asking for money. You say, such people are good and bad? One sentence stunned the little girl.
Lin Xiao felt that children's values should still be established, so he said: "See with your own eyes, feel with your heart, don't keep listening to others." ”
Shen Rourou nodded as if she didn't understand, and was silent.
Encountering a half-sized man holding two pheasants, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up. "Hey, boy."
The boy was thirteen or fourteen years old, and he looked quite sturdy, and when he saw Lin Xiao, he was stunned, "What are you going to do?" The boy's tone was not very good.
Shen Rourou secretly tugged Lin Xiao's sleeve and said in a low voice: "He is from the west of the village, but he is amazing." Secretly warned Lin Xiao not to provoke him, Shen Rourou was obviously a little afraid of this kid.
Lin Xiao was not afraid of him, "Do you sell pheasants?" When she saw that the boy was not dressed well, she said, "I can give you silver." ”
Unexpectedly, the young man's eyes widened, "You give me charity?" "There's a big gesture to be done.
Lin Xiao: "......"
Nima, which eye did you see that I was going to give you alms?
She didn't want to entangle with a little child, so she said, "I'm going to die of poverty myself, and I'm going to give you charity?" We have a wounded man at home, and I want to buy it for him to replenish his body. It was rare for her to explain kindly.
The young man glanced at Shen Rourou and suddenly said, "You are the one who hunts wild boars." He threw the pheasant over, "Then give it to you, just give me some money, this thing has everything, it's not worth much." Lin Xiao hurriedly took it. This stinky boy, you can't hand it over properly. I carried two pheasants, both of which were females, probably six or seven pounds, and they looked quite fat. "I don't have much money with me today, so why don't you go home with me and get it." When Lin Xiao came out to buy tofu, he brought dozens of dollars.
"You give as much as you want, and I still have to go home to see my father." The boy seemed a little impatient.
Lin Xiao gave him the remaining thirty or so dollars, "Oh, that's all." If it's not enough, I'll send it to you later. ”
The boy answered, "No, that's enough." He turned around and left.
Lin Xiao shook his head, what a twisted child.
Xiao Bu stared at the two pheasants with bright eyes, Lin Xiao smiled and stuffed the chickens into him, "Take it, let's go back and eat meat." ”
