Chapter 169: The Neighbors Come to Make Trouble

Pei Cui entered the shop and took a bucket out, and Hamahama reminded to separate the grass beads and black fruits (wild grapes). The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info just passed through a bump in the car, everything was mixed together, and some of the wild grapes had been broken, and Hamahama frowned bitterly after seeing it.

The stall owner felt that he had picked up a big bargain, and also helped to divide the fruits and beads together. Four children, one and a half children, two adults, seven hands and eight feet, collected two and a half buckets of grass beads and two buckets of wild grapes.

While cleaning up, Hamahama told the stall owner that if there were any wild grapes, he would buy them at home. Li Zhu looked at so many things and asked strangely: "Binbin, no one else eats this thing, what are we buying it for?" ”

Seeing that there were outsiders, Hamahama smiled and said to his father: "Dad, this thing is useless in other people's homes, and it is very sour." But our domestic birds eat this mile, and the last time I saw them peck at the black fruits in our yard. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu suddenly thought that these fruits were not expensive and could save a lot of effort, and said to the stall owner with a smile: "So that's the case, this brother, do you still have this fruit, we all want it." ”

When Hamahama heard what his father said, he hurriedly said to the stall owner: "Uncle, how much do we want to buy, can you be cheaper?" The stall owner thought about what people bought to feed the birds, and remembered that there were many more on the mountain, so he responded with a smile: "I should still have a few hundred catties there, you all want them, I will lose one penny per catty, how about it?" ”

When he heard this, he was very happy, looked at the donkey cart, and then looked at the hands that he was packing, and said to the stall owner: "Uncle, you see if you can transport it in a big barrel, and we don't have to pick it up like this." Let's get out of the bucket money. ”

After hearing this, the stall owner thought that if he made a few more pennies from the bucket money, he would also make money, so he said happily: "Of course, there is no problem with this." ”

The stall owner helped carry four buckets of goods into the backyard before leaving in the donkey cart. Pei Cui saw that there was nothing she could help with, so she went out of the door and continued to sell linen.

Binbin watched the stall owner leave, and saw that the yard was full of his own people, so he instructed Pei Lu to wash the grapes. After hearing this, Li Zhu also came over to help wash it, but Binbin stopped his father's behavior, pulled him and his brothers, entered the room, looked around, and saw Pei Lu concentrating on washing grapes, so he said to Li Zhu: "Daddy, I saw a method in the book to make wine from these wild fruits." Let's try to make something and sell it. ”

After hearing this, Li Zhu looked at Binbin with wide eyes, and Li Zhu angrily scolded Binbin: "Since you want to use it to make wine, why did you lie just now and say that you used it to feed the birds?" If people have no faith, they cannot stand. You have to be honest with others, and others will reciprocate with sincerity. How can you lie casually at your young age? ”

After hearing this, Binbin turned his head and said, "Daddy, these things are all learned in books, let's sort them out first, and we can make this money." If it was sorted out by someone else, we could have sold the fruit wine for a few taels of silver, but we might only be able to sell it for a few cents. Of course, this good thing must be put away, and it cannot be known to others and imitated. Our paper, our red knot, is not just a board. ”

After hearing this, Deng Chi and Bin were the same, Brother Li Hai nodded after hearing this, and Bin Bin said again: "Daddy, you see, our rabbits, none of them have been watched, and they have been stewed by the second uncle." Someone has taken the rabbit for this meal, and it is still our second uncle. If anyone knows that our fruit can make money, will anyone still sell us? Can we still make money? ”

Li Zhu thought about it, thought for a while, moved his lips, and no longer had the atmosphere and righteousness just now, and still kept persuading: "You are like this, your words are impermanent, your deeds are impermanent, your interests are everywhere, and if you are, you can be described as a villain." ”

After hearing this, Hamahama said aggrievedly: "Daddy, how old am I?" How tall? What is not a villain? ”

Li Zhu was choked and speechless, shook his head, Binbin looked at his brothers, and continued to say to Li Zhu while Li Zhuluo was a little moved by his own words: "Daddy, we are not always lying, some things must be honest." However, there are some things that are not needed. For example, our family's 30 wen linen cloth sells for a pound of wine. These must be sold in more and no less. There are some things that must be done on the word, and there must be results in deeds. But the purpose of the wild fruit is not to be told to others. It's the same way we make paper. And I'm not lying this time, the birds eat this, I just didn't say what it was for. ”

Deng Chi's eyes rolled after hearing this, and he thought, true and false, false and true is the right way.

Li Zhu sighed after hearing this, and said, "My daughter thinks more clearly than my father. Do whatever you want. Daddy says a word, and you come out with a whole basket of things. Just stop for a while, don't get tired. After speaking, Li Zhu handed Binbin a bowl of water and coaxed: "Drink saliva, don't hurt your throat." ”

After hearing this, Hamahama's heart was sweet, and he served the stall for drinking water, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Hamahama thought to himself, it's no wonder that his father can get five times back after only reading books for half a year. His father not only memorized the things in the book, but also strictly followed the etiquette in the book. And not blindly accepting, but also combining with reality, through their own thinking, not imposing the rules of books on themselves and those around them, this is a rare and valuable good quality. This is also a manifestation of Li Zhu's love for children.

Speaking kung fu, Deng, Zhang, and Li Quan have already arrived in the shop.

Li Zhu hurriedly went to the shop door to pick everyone in and helped move things, while Pei Cui and Pei Lu helped Li Quan move a stone mill that could be surrounded by two people out of the car. This small stone mill does not require a lot of effort to push. There is a rod that can be operated by half a child, which was specially bought for the two brothers of the Pei family.

The children walked around the ox cart beside them, looking at the stone mill as a novelty, but they did not dare to approach.

Li Hai and Deng Chi wanted to help, but they were helpless, and there were no small things here.

Hamahama stood beside him, looking at Deng's family, thinking about how to hand over the beads and wild fruits to his mother. Although it is said to be of great use, it may also make money, but there is still no shadow now, it cost hundreds of dollars, and now the family is short of money everywhere, and the mother must be uncomfortable.

At this time, in the mill next to him, a strong man came out, more than eight feet long, with a waist of ten girths, and Hamahama looked at it, like Dian Wei in the novel "Three Kingdoms" he read in previous years, with a burly appearance, and at first glance he looked like a person with extraordinary strength.

The strong man didn't look at the people at the door, he went straight into the shop, and shouted at the shop: "Who is in charge here?" Come out! ”

When Li Zhu heard the shout, he walked over inexplicably, frowning slightly, because this strong man was standing in his own shop, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, just blocking the way of Pei Cui and Pei Lu, who were carrying the stone mill.

Seeing this, Li Zhu made a call to the strong man and said, "This strong man, I am the shopkeeper here, why are you looking for me?" ”

When the strong man heard the voice, he turned to look at Li Zhu, and saw that he had bandit gentlemen, such as Jin Ruxi, such as Gui Rubi, he was shocked, and shouted in a hard breath: "Which road are you on?" Do you know the rules, my family opened a mill here first, so you can't open it here. ”

Li Zhu was stunned for a while, and said with a smile: "Our family does not open a mill, our stone mill is only used to grind beans, and we don't plan to help people grind things." You see, most of the people in our family are children, and they can't do this. ”

The strong man only looked at the people in the shop at this time, there were only women and children (Pei Cui and Pei Lu were only half the size), two men, one in front, looked sturdy, but he said that he was in charge, and it was impossible for the master to grind by himself. The one outside doesn't look strong either. Li Zhu looked at the strong man and looked at Li Quan, and hurriedly said, "This is my brother, he helped our family buy the goods." ”

The strong man looked around the shop, and there was a linen cloth at the door of the shop, which he knew, after all, it had been sold for a few days, and he thought that there was a cloth village here.

The things in the shop are more complicated, but not messy. The left side is divided into three layers, with some cloth and rope in front, some seeds in the middle, and some incense and some furoshiki in the back.

In the middle of the shop, there are a few hoes, a few pots, a few wooden barrels of different sizes, and some big red knots hanging on the top, which looks quite festive. On the right are two wooden tables and several long wooden chairs.

It doesn't look like a mill at all.

When the strong man saw this ornament, he was embarrassed to have a good face, and he learned from Li Zhugang's appearance, and said indecently, "This master, I can't help it." I'm watching your movements, anxious. Don't worry about it, we two neighbors, if you want my help in the future, just ask. ”

Li Zhu hurriedly thanked him, looked at the back of the strong man, and carefully offered to let the strong man get out of the way. The strong man saw that they were going to move the stone mill to the backyard, so he believed it even more, and said three kind words in a row, such as "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you".

Li Zhuguan, a strong man, has a true temperament, and he is still very happy to have such a neighbor, of course, he forgives him. Seeing that there was nothing to do with him, the strong man went home and did not offer help.

Binbin looked straight and shook his head, what is his true temperament, looking at Uncle Quan and the brother surnamed Pei carrying a stone mill and not saying to help, he scolded and left, only his own father would think that this kind of man is a good person. It seems that there is an opportunity to teach my father how to recognize people.

Deng and Zhang are both people who are used to doing things, and they are full of work, so they picked up a broom and swept the inside and front of the shop. Pei Cui saw it and lowered his head, when he swept the floor in the past, he didn't sweep the front of the shop, and he would change it in the future.

Yesterday, everyone had already cleaned up the shop, and now they came to Anshi Mill, Deng and Zhang swept the shop and took the broom to the backyard.

The stone mill was placed outside the kitchen, near the well, which was agreed upon at the beginning.

Deng Shi saw two buckets of black fruits and black and white beads next to the well, Zhang Shi looked at it, shook his head at Li Zhu, and said while shaking: "Where did this come from?" Did you just buy it? ”

Deng Shi looked at Binbin, remembered the beads that the child asked about last time, and thought to himself, it must be on the street today, seen by the child, the child is clamoring for it, the child is eccentric, and now he will pick up his father to buy things.

When Binbin saw Deng Shi coming over, he hurriedly smiled and said to Deng Shi: "Mother, I bought it with my father." These are good things. ”

Deng Shi looked at it, smiled helplessly, and asked, "Zhu, how much did this thing cost?" ”

Li Zhu hurriedly responded: "This thing is eight cents a catty, don't weigh it, there are more than 100 catties here." Nine hundred dollars. ”

After hearing this, Zhang and Li Quan, who was grinding the stone next to him, said in unison in surprise: "Nine hundred yuan!" ”

After hearing this, Li Quan shook his head and said to Li Zhuxun: "Zhu, you are good at everything, but you are spending money indiscriminately." You buy it for your daughter to play, just buy a catty. What's the use of buying so much. ”

Li Zhu replied in a low voice: "One pound costs ten yuan, and all one pound costs eight yuan." ”

When Li Quan heard this, he was speechless and choked. Zhang couldn't help but roll his eyes at the sky, and said to Deng: "Min, if you go to the street in the future, you can't give him silver." ”

Deng smiled, did not shake his head, did not nod, only looked at his daughter. Binbin looked at Deng anxiously and pleaded: "Mother, it's really useful." ”

Seeing Deng Shi looking at Binbin like this, Deng Chi and Li Hai hurriedly leaned forward, grabbed Deng's feet, and raised their eyes to look at Deng. Deng Shi looked at the appearance of the children, his heart had already softened, he smiled at Binbin, and said, "Okay, our daughter is useful, and my mother will keep it for you." It's useless, my mother will keep it for you, let's take it back to the village to play. ”

The children and Li Zhu Deng said yes and laughed.

Li Quan and Zhang shook their heads in their hearts as they looked at them. Li Zhu spends money indiscriminately, and the Deng family can't control it, so it seems that he has to let his father (uncle Li Hongshen) help manage it.

Li Zhu saw that the stone mill was well, and proposed to move over today, cook here and invite Brother Quan and Brother Mu to dinner. When the new shop opened, I wanted to invite you to dinner, and in order to congratulate the new Zhang Zhixi, Li Quan drove an ox cart and drove Li Zhu and Deng back to Li Quan's house to pack up their things.

Deng went to clean up, Li Quan was not worried about letting Li Zhu buy food alone, and insisted on accompanying him to visit the vegetable market.

When Hamahama heard that his father was going to buy something, he asked for four large clay pots to wear wild fruits. Deng thought that he had bought it anyway, and there was nothing to buy a tank again, so he agreed.

Hamin listened to Deng's agreement, and whispered to his father: "Dad, let's make wine, and we also need sugar, chopsticks, white cloth, and eggs." ”

Li Zhu remembered what Binbin had just said about secrecy, his thinking changed slightly, he knew the importance of secrecy, and scratched Binbin's nose with a smile, and said, "You kid." Okay, Daddy brought it to you. ”

Hamahama smiled happily when he heard this.

The adults went to work.

Hamahama instructed Pei Lu to wash the grapes and drain them. After all this is done, just wait for Li Zhu's jar and sugar.

Pei Cui guarded the linen cloth outside the shop all morning, and no one came to buy it, so she collected the stall and went to the kitchen to help before noon.

Binbin saw Pei Cui come in, and asked with concern: "Brother Cui, isn't the linen cloth easy to sell these days?" ”

Pei Cui's face blushed for a while, and he responded carefully, he felt that the things were not sold, because he was not capable enough.

Hamahama thought for a moment and said, "Are you sitting and selling?" ”

Pei Cui listened to the question of the little master's family, thinking that she was blaming herself for sitting, and said aggrievedly: "Standing for a morning, I am a little tired, and in the first few days, I can sell it while sitting, so I sold it while sitting." (To be continued.) )
