The Li family and the three children of the Shen family were very happy to see Shen An coming back, and they all gathered around him happily, chattering about the situation this time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Anhan smiled, took out the remaining sixty yuan and handed it to the Li family: "Sixty yuan here, you buy two batches of new cloth for Sister Qing and Sister Yao, and then buy some pens and paper for Brother Heng, and buy some meat for the rest to marinate and keep it in the tun, so that it can be eaten for the New Year." ”

Li Shi was very happy to receive the sixty yuan, looked at Shen An and said excitedly: "Master, this ...... Is this done? ”

Shen An felt bitter in his heart at the look of anticipation on Li's face, and shook his head: "That shopkeeper only needs these pottery I have made, so that I don't need to bring pottery over in the future, this matter should be considered yellow." ”

Li was inevitably a little disappointed when he heard this.

Shen Nianqing looked at the decadent appearance of his parents, couldn't bear it, and tried hard to enliven the atmosphere: "Dad, no matter what, in the next month, my sister and brother will be able to eat meat every day, and I'm afraid that one by one will become big fat dolls!" Ha ha! ”

As soon as Shen Biyao heard Shen Nianqing say that she was going to become a fat doll, she was annoyed and chased after Shen Nianqing to make trouble: "Sister, what are you talking about!" Ah Yao don't become a fat doll! Sister bad! ”

Shen Nianqing dodged again and again, running around the house to avoid Shen Biyao, Shen Yuanheng also followed Shen Nianqing and chased after the noisy, Shen An and his wife looked at the scene of the three dolls giggling and laughing at home, and the depression in their hearts gradually dissipated. If you can't make money, what's there, as long as the family is neat and happy together, it doesn't matter if you have money or not.

――

After yesterday's incident, Shen An returned to work in the fields, Li took care of the housework at home with peace of mind, and the family lived a quiet life again.

And Shen Biyao, who was thoughtful, remembered what the stone said about the gem mountain yesterday, and pestered Shen Nianqing to go to Shi's house in the morning to find the gem that the stone said was good. Shen Nianqing said that the stone had promised them yesterday that it would be delivered today, but Shen Biyao didn't follow, and sulked in the yard with a pout.

said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrived, and when the sisters were still in the courtyard and were in the cold war, Shi Shi found the Shen family with a basket of things.

"You're all here!" As soon as Shi entered the gate of the Shen family, he saw the two sisters of the Shen family sitting in a row like flowers, and his mood was uncontrollably better, "Hey, this is the gem that I dug up with the dog yesterday, we dug a whole basket, this is a basket for you, take it!" ”

Shen Biyao was very happy, and immediately rushed towards the stone, snatched the basket excitedly, and smiled at the stone: "Brother Shi, thank you!" ”

Shi laughed and waved his hand: "It's okay, don't forget to give me the bean paste cake you said!" ”

Shen Nianqing laughed out loud when she heard this, nodded at the stone again and again, and said with a laugh: "Don't worry! The bean paste cake is indispensable for you! ”

Shen Biyao couldn't wait to put the basket down, and after opening the lid to take a look, Shen Biyao was stunned: "What a beautiful gem!" Shen Biyao was pleasantly surprised to take out some of these "gems" and take a closer look, these "gems" are transparent throughout, some stones are slightly brown, some stones are faintly purple, and more stones are pure and colorless! These "gems" exude dazzling light in the sun, and Shen Baguio's eyes can't be opened!

Shen Nianqing was curious when he heard this, and at a glance, he knew what this so-called "gem" was. Shen Nianqing was a science subject in high school in his previous life, and although he had a headache in physics, he was extremely interested in chemistry. These so-called "gems" are actually just some quartz, which is one of the most widely distributed minerals in the quartz group, pure quartz is colorless and transparent, hard and crystalline, and looks like a gemstone in the sun. In ancient times, there was no systematic geological knowledge, and it is understandable for children to see beautiful quartz as a gemstone.

Thinking of this, Shen Nianqing suddenly had a flash of inspiration!

That's right! Quartz!

She remembers once in a geological research class, the tutor introduced that quartz is the main material for making glaze, as long as it is matched with feldspar and clay, ground into powder, and mixed with water to make a slurry to be coated on the pottery, after firing, the surface of the pottery will form a transparent crystal-like glaze layer, and the pottery with the glaze layer will be unique and exquisite, and the surface will be very smooth! And the pottery of this dynasty is about all earthy, and if there is a glaze, then ...... Thinking of this, Shen Nianqing was very excited, nervously picked around in the basket, picked a few pieces of quartz with the purest color and luster, and took a closer look, the more he looked at the corner of his mouth, the bigger the smile became, and it was so beautiful in the sunlight that it was dazzling.

Shi was stunned when he saw such a dazzling Shen Nianqing on the side, thinking that he didn't expect this girl to look good when she smiled, so she also smirked. Seeing that Shen Nianqing was also very interested in "gems", the stone had indescribable pride, and said to Shen Nianqing like a merit: "Does A-Qing like it too?" If you like it, I'll go back today and bring you a basket to pick it up slowly! ”

Shen Nianqing came back to his senses, his eyes widened and he said to the stone: "Yes! I love it! But don't be in such a hurry, I'll go digging for gems with you in a few days! ”

Hearing that Shen Nianqing was going to dig gems with him, the heart of the stone seemed to be as sweet as honey, and he nodded at Shen Nianqing one after another! Shen Biyao also danced happily when she heard that she was going to dig gems, and the three children laughed loudly in the courtyard, attracting the Li family.

Li looked at the three children who were smirking around and asked strangely, "What are you three children smirking at?" ”

Shen Nianqing turned around and smiled at Li: "It's nothing, Auntie, when will Daddy come back?" ”

"I'll probably be back soon." Li Shi looked at the sun and replied, "Eh, I don't know if your father's depression is better." ”

Seeing the sad Li family, Shen Nianqing stepped forward to comfort: "Auntie, don't worry, I'll talk to him when my father comes back." ”

Li looked at the well-behaved and sensible Shen Nianqing, his heart was very ironing, and he touched Shen Nianqing's head lovingly: "Good boy, wash your hands and have lunch." ”

"Hmm!" Shen Nianqing smiled, turned around and called Shen Biyao: "Sister Yao, I'm back for dinner!" ”

After speaking, he looked at the stone standing aside with a face full of expectation, and shouted again: "Stone, you can come with it!" The bean paste cake is ready! ”

"Huh!" The stone agreed very happily, and ran into the house with the girl, and when he crossed the threshold, he was careless and almost fell, which made Li and Shen Nianqing laugh.
