CHAPTER XIV
Soon I knew dozens of words, and it was the result of my deliberate slowdown. My brother saw how quickly I knew dozens of words, snoring genius, and I hurriedly said, "It's all taught by my brother well." ”
When my brother heard this, he said, "I know my own ability, sister, you are really a prodigy!" It's a pity that it's not a man. ”。“ Brother, what's wrong with a daughter's body, women can also hold half the sky, isn't it good to have a smart sister? My brother rubbed my head and said, "It's just that you're crooked." "While my brother and I were saying this, my grandparents were already up.
"Dead girl, what are you doing, don't hurry up and get to work!" Grandma Wang yelled at me, scared me, I quickly got up and ran out with a bamboo basket on my back. When I got to the mountain, I breathed a sigh of relief. I ate well at noon today, and in the afternoon I felt very strong, and I quickly cut the pigweed. I hurried to the hot springs again and put the grass down.
I was going to get some more sulphur from the hot springs to sell for money, so I quickly poured the hogweed out of the bamboo basket. I touched the hot springs with my hands, and soon found a lot of sulfur, so I quickly found some pigweed in the bamboo basket, and slowly put the sulfur in, which was a pound of silver or two, but it could not be broken. When the basket was full, I hurriedly covered it with pigweed, and until I couldn't see anything from the outside, I hurried to the county seat. When I walked to the county seat, I hurriedly ran to the medical hall and found that there were people looking at the entrance of the medical hall all the time. "Grandma, you always come, and our hospital is waiting for your sulfur."
It turned out to be waiting for me, so I quickly took out the bamboo basket. After Xiao Wang took it, he hurried in, and I followed. Soon, Xiao Wang weighed my sulfur, "Little girl, look at it, this is twelve catties!" I looked at it and nodded. Xiao Wang continued, "Doctor Song has explained to me, if you want to come to sell sulfur, you can pay two taels of silver for a catty, a total of twenty-four taels, you see if this silver is right." Then he handed me the money. I quickly took the silver, and when I found that there was no problem, I said, "Brother Wang, thank you, and say thank you to Dr. Song on my behalf." Xiao Wang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No thanks, you just need to send the sulfur over on time." ”
When I heard this, I hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, as long as there is one, I will send it over quickly." After that, I put the bamboo basket on my back and left.
I hurried to the grocery store because I wanted to buy a bar of soap for bathing.
Walking into the grocery store, the shopkeeper immediately came over and said, "Girl, what do you need?" "Shopkeeper, I need a bar of soap, do you have it here?" The shopkeeper hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, we have two kinds of soap here, one is unscented, and the second is scented." Girl, which one do you want? "How much does it cost to have no fragrance?" Hearing that I wanted to have no fragrance, a look of disappointment flashed on the shopkeeper's face, but he still said very enthusiastically, "Girl, there is no fragrance for thirty yuan." I nodded, and handed over a tael of silver.
The shopkeeper looked at the silver tael in my hand, and his face did not change very well. It's not that I don't want scented soap, it's that I'm afraid that after using scented soap, I'm afraid that others will smell it. After the shopkeeper asked me for the money, I quickly put the money in my arms and ran towards Peach Blossom Village quickly.
When I finally got to the mountain, I quickly put the soap in the hollow of the tree, opened the small jar, put more than twenty-two taels of silver in it, and took one or two taels of silver and put it in my bosom, ready to take it home and put it in the house. When I slowly carried the pigweed home, I found my grandmother looking at the door, saw me, and immediately pointed her finger at me and said, "Dead girl, you have been doing a little work for a long time, why don't you come over and cook quickly!" "I didn't dare to fight with my grandmother, so I had to put the grass away and go into the kitchen to help my grandmother light the fire. With my grandmother's cooperation, the meal was quickly ready, and I quickly carried the meal with my grandmother to the table in the hall, because my grandfather had been back for a long time.
After all the meals were ready, Grandpa said to start eating, and everyone began to eat. Although tonight's dinner is not as good as at noon, everyone is already hungry, and besides, it is their elders who cook, do you dare to say anything?
After eating, I hurriedly cleaned up with my mother. After cleaning up, my mother and I went into the room with our washing things, and with the oil lamp, my father and my brother and I quickly finished washing.
After finishing the things, I quickly closed the door, and my mother and brother and I looked at each other and decided to tell my father about the sale of medicinal herbs. The mother went and removed the ark and took the silver out of the jar. Daddy was surprised to see so much silver, and said, "How can you have so much silver, and where does the money come from?" The mother was afraid that her father would misunderstand, so she hurriedly said, "These are all obtained by selling medicinal herbs." Daddy was surprised, "But, shouldn't the money be handed over to my mother?" You can't hide the money privately, you have to hand it over to your mother quickly. With that, he put on his shoes and prepared to hand over the money to his grandmother. As soon as my mother saw this situation, she quickly hugged her father and said, "Brother Zhi, if you give the money to your father, what will my father and mother think of me." Also, Brother Yi is about to be twelve years old, the house is like this, Xiuxiu is so old, you can't sleep together all the time. Brother Yi'er goes to school, takes exams, and Xiuxiu has a dowry, all of which require money! Will Daddy come out? Sure enough, when Daddy heard this, he stopped his feet as he walked out.
After coming over for a long time, Daddy sighed and said, "Okay, you can save money, but don't let others find out." My mother exchanged glances with me and my brother, and hurriedly agreed, "I know, don't worry, I won't be discovered by others." "My mother and brother and I coincidentally hid the money in the mountain from my father, and my father wanted to give it to my grandparents with a little money here, not to mention so much money in the mountain. The problem was solved, and my father and brother and I were soon ready to go to bed.
The next morning, my mother and I got up to cook, and everyone was still ready to work, but fortunately there was more work yesterday, and there was only a little left today, and it was done quickly. After eating, my mother and grandmother stayed, and my mother mainly had to clean the house, feed chickens, cows and pigs.
And grandma is mainly resting, because there is less work, grandma rests at home, and grandpa doesn't say anything. I carried a bamboo basket on my back, ready to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and come back, and the wild vegetables at home were eaten yesterday.
