Chapter 5 Gratitude and Retribution
When she arrived at the entrance of the village, Xin Ran told Xiaoru to let her come in the evening. When he got home, he beckoned the coachman to drink water, gave him another ten cents, and sent him away.
After being tired all morning, both mother and daughter had back pain, so they simply ate and went to rest. I woke up in the afternoon and started to put things away. In the morning, I bought 10 catties of rice for 150 wen, 20 catties of brown rice for 100 wen, 10 catties of flour for 80 wen, and some ingredients for 20 wen.
The quilts at home are all given by other people's families, and they have long been tattered and tattered, and Xin Dye will never save in this regard, so he should change it, and buy it when he should buy it. It took more than two taels in total.
Aunt Xin originally wanted to say a few words, but when she saw that she thought about all the money earned by Xin Ran, she didn't say anything, she didn't have the ability to make money to support her family, so she hurt her more.
In the evening, as soon as Xin Ran's family had finished eating, Xiaoru came. "Auntie, Xiao Ran, I'm here, have you eaten?"
"Xiao Ru is here, we just eat, Xiao Ran is in the house, you can go in and play." "Okay, big lady."
Xiaoru turned around and walked into the house, but before she reached the door, she saw a girl sitting on a wooden bed with her eyes closed. In fact, Xin Ran was settling the accounts, and today he promised Shopkeeper Sun to send 100 catties of wild celery and 50 catties of mushrooms tomorrow. According to observation, it is not a problem to pick a few hundred catties of wild celery at a time, and mushrooms cannot be faked by others, if they are picked poisonous, it will be a bad thing.
"Xiaoru, go sit on the edge of the bed, I want you to help if I have something." "What's the matter, tell me quickly." Xiao Ru thought that Xin Ran was encountering some difficulties, and asked very nervously. "Haha, it's okay, it's a good thing, don't be nervous." Small as a gesture to scratch the hard dye. "Alas, alas, don't scratch me, ha, ha, ha, I'm afraid of itching, I really have something to say." "You say, if you don't make it clear, you're done." ”
Xin Ran wiped the tears that came out of his laughter, and told him that he wanted her and the Li family to help pick celery tomorrow, a hundred wen a day, and a matter of one in the morning. Xiaoru was overjoyed when she heard this, but then hesitated again, "Xiao Ran, such a good job, you can do it with your aunt, you don't need me." Xin Ran wanted to roll her eyes, "Silly Xiaoru, it's just that there are not enough people to find you, don't you want to do it?" "Think about it...... "It's a great thing, you don't have to delay your work, and you can make so much money." I don't have so much to do in a day to work in the town.
"Then it's decided. Come to my house at the beginning of tomorrow morning. Let's set off together, remember to bring a backpack, and come to my house for breakfast. Xiao Ru hurriedly shook his head, how could such a good thing still take advantage. Xin Ran saw her like this, and she didn't force it, the people in the village were very simple and wouldn't always think about begging for benefits.
Xiaoru is gone, Xin Ran didn't send it, and the home is not far away, only a hundred meters, and there will be no danger. After packing up the things for tomorrow, the mother and daughter went to sleep.
Before the time came, Aunt Xin woke up, seeing her daughter sleeping so soundly, she was sad and relieved, since she was cured last time, she was like a different person, but no matter how she was, she was her own daughter, which would never change. Aunt Xin pressed the quilt on her and went out to cook.
After a while, Xin Ran woke up, rubbed his eyes and got up. Now is not the time to sleep, and when you have money in the future, you will sleep until you wake up naturally every day.
Before eating, Li came with Xiao Ru, Li was fat, because he was going up the mountain, he wore an older clothes, and his hair was wrapped in a turban to avoid the branches from scratching. Seeing Aunt Xin's hearty smile, she said, "Listen to my family like a girl saying that there is something to do, just say it, and say what kind of money, I don't have to destroy my feelings." Xin Ran had been paying attention to Li, knowing that what she said was not a lie, and her heart was warm.
"Aunt Li, don't worry, this money is not from us, but just for others like us." Xin Ran didn't tell the truth, and he didn't want to put pressure on the Li family, so it was good for everyone to say this.
Li responded with a smile. With this feeling in mind, I thought that next time I hunted prey at home and sent some meat.
At this time, the sky is slightly bright, and you can see. The four of them set off with a smile and a smile, and it was lively. On the way, acquaintances were very eager to say hello, and the people in the village were not talkative, they just thought that they went up the mountain to look for wild vegetables.
When they arrived at the mountain, Xin Ran first took Li and Xiaoru to the place of wild celery, and Li knew that this was the first time that it could be eaten, and he had never eaten it before. Xin Ran smiled and said that he would save some for his own food later. When picking celery, don't pick it by the roots, pinch it off from the roots, and when it is a while, it will grow new and you can pick it again.
After explaining clearly, Xin Ran took Aunt Xin to the place where the mushrooms were picked, this place was in the woods, and the mushrooms were relatively scattered, so they needed to be found separately. "Mother, you can see what kind of picks I pick first, just pick this kind of mushroom, many mushrooms are poisonous. You can't eat indiscriminately. ”
Looking at what Xin Ran said, Aunt Xin was actually puzzled, when did her daughter become so sensible. Aunt Xin was very puzzled, but she didn't ask anything.
"Mother, then you are here, I'll go to the side and have a look." When Aunt Xin responded, Xin Ran walked out into the distance, not that she didn't see her mother's puzzled eyes, but that some words were unclear, could it be that she sued her, your daughter died, and I just took her body.
Xin Ran thought he couldn't do it. I don't want to say whether people will believe it, what if I am caught and burned to death as a monster. So this thing can't be said.
After about an hour, the mushrooms were almost picked, and there were several varieties, cream mushrooms, umbrella mushrooms, black mushrooms, and so on. Forget it, Aunt Li and the others are almost there, so they will go to the meeting place.
When I got home, there was still a lot of time, and a few people drank water to put the celery together, which was not for sale, so it didn't need to be used in bundles, just neatly arranged. Aunt Li took Xiaoru home.
Before the time arrived, the carriage of the restaurant came, and after weighing, the mushrooms were sold for four taels, two celery, and the deposit of the last time was deducted, and there were one or two today, and the carriage left after agreeing on the time of the next visit.
