Chapter 30 Sold for a Good Price
The next morning, when the old man Feng heard the sound of the door, he rushed out of the main house and chased out of the yard, the figures of Jinxiu and Jinyu had disappeared in a white mist.
Old Man Feng sighed: After all, he is old, and he can't run away from the two little girls in a hurry!
He was thinking about the mountain goods that Jinxiu picked back from the mountains yesterday, and kept watch all night with his eyes open, and only took a nap when it was close to dawn, who knew that he would miss it! originally wanted to go to the market town with them, but the little girl carried so many good things on her back, and she didn't know how to be powerful, so what should I do if people take advantage of the gap?
Jinxiu and Jinyu are as stupid as Old Man Feng thought, the sisters have long been familiar with the town market - Lingzhi was taken to Liu Ji Pharmacy, and the shopkeeper Liu held the purple Lingzhi with a small soup pot, and was overjoyed: It happened that a rich family in the town needed such a purple Lingzhi that was old enough to make medicine, and asked several times, and the three big pharmacies and big medical halls in the town all offered high prices.
Shopkeeper Liu gave a silver ticket of 200 taels, and the sisters opened their mouths into an O-shape, and they didn't say much, so they accepted the silver ticket and left!
Carrying matsutake lion's mane mushroom and black fungus to Fu Xilai Restaurant, Hong shopkeeper ushered in the send-off, good eyesight and good memory, remember the two sisters, the guy brought them in, Hong shopkeeper smiled and greeted them well, and then went to see their back baskets, suddenly Hong shopkeeper's eyes widened, and the small purple sand teapot in his hand was thrown directly to the guy, trembling and stretching out his hands to pick up the bowl of hairy lion's mane mushroom and fist-sized matsutake mushroom, and then there are fat and thick black fungus, each of which looks as fresh as if it has just been picked, Exuding a unique alluring fragrance, Shopkeeper Hong took a deep breath, happy and excited, and shouted to the two girls to prepare the best breakfast, and wait for the girls to eat enough to slowly count the silver!
This back basket of things, because it is particularly fresh and very good, the shopkeeper Hong said that he should hurry up and send it to where to go, there are distinguished guests waiting to eat, make an exception and give a very high price, and the splendid sisters got one hundred and thirty-nine taels of silver!
Shopkeeper Hung also presented two food boxes: one containing all kinds of exquisite snacks in the restaurant, and one containing four plates of the restaurant's signature dishes in four drawers, which the girl took home to share with her family. In the future, if the girl has this kind of good thing, please send it to the shopkeeper!
This is the general words of the shopkeeper Hong, he said it more literally, and Jinxiu was too lazy to translate.
If it was placed in Old Man Feng's place, that Ganoderma lucidum and this half basket of matsutake lion's mane mushroom black fungus would definitely not be sold like this, maybe he could get a higher price!
But Jinxiu and Jinyu feel that their inner satisfaction is the best!
Moreover, if you carefully calculate the value, plus the four words produced by Dongtian, I don't know how much it is worth?
So Jinxiu had no regrets, and her sister carried more than three hundred taels of silver - three hundred and thirty taels of silver tickets, nine taels of silver, and they were crazy with joy, and one person held a food box, walked outside the town market and spent ten cents to "wrap" an ox cart, and sent them to Liumu Village, where their aunt's house was located!
Liumu Village is on the edge of Fangshi Town, and it is only a matter of walking through a field from the town, and if it weren't for these two big food boxes, it would be very brisk for the sisters to walk with their baskets on their backs.
Aunt Tian was very surprised when she saw her two nieces coming, and hurriedly asked them why they came so early? Did you come to your aunt's house first before you rushed to the market?
Jinxiu and Jinyu took the two food boxes to the aunt, and asked her to call her uncle-in-law and cousins to come over to eat, and the aunt asked if they were selling mountain goods in the Fuxilai restaurant, and the shopkeeper saw that their mountain goods were good, and gave them, so they poured half a food box of snacks very fairly, and the four-dish dishes were also divided into two plates, and then formed a food box, and kept them to take home to their mother and sister.
The aunt and a few cousins bite the dim sum made by the well-known restaurant in the town, and praise the deliciousness, although they often go to the town on weekdays, this kind of restaurant has never been in, mainly everything is expensive, I heard that a dish of a dish is a few taels, a dozen taels or even dozens of taels of silver!
Although Fangshi Town is not big, but it is by no means closed, this town has developed transportation on land and water and has the role of transit connection, merchants from all over the country temporarily live here or in the past, it is very prosperous, so there are also high-end restaurants and teahouses with high consumption, and most of the people who go in and out are those who come and go and the local rich people, how dare ordinary people enter.
After eating early, the family listened to the two Jinxiu sisters talk about how they went into the mountains to find mountain goods, and the popularity of the sister was so good that the little girl of the Orion family led them into the deep mountains and old forests to collect matsutake mushrooms and lion's mane mushrooms, black fungus and even Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, in exchange for two or three hundred taels of silver......
This time, it was Aunt Tian's turn and the whole family were stunned, they couldn't believe it, Fang Erniu said:
"Cousin Jinxiu, why don't you take a few of us back, and follow you into the mountains every day - how amazing your mountains are, what do you want!"
Jinyu took out the burlap bag in the basket and took out the contents inside: three lion's mane mushrooms, three matsutake mushrooms, and four or five black fungus.
The family was shocked again: it was not that they had never gone into the mountains to collect game, but no one had ever been able to get such a large and beautiful matsutake mushroom and lion's mane mushroom!
Aunt Fang heard Jinxiu say that it was a little girl from the Yang family in Dongshan Village who led her into the mountains, and expressed her belief:
"The people of the Orion family are always alone, and they won't take people casually, like the old Han Tou in our village, who do you see his family has taken into the mountains?"
Jinxiu said: "I have known Yang Dongmei since childhood, but she only took me into the mountains since this spring, because she is going to get married next year, she said that if she has a good relationship, she will take us a few times!" ”
The eldest aunt nodded: "The Orion family, since they were children, they have been walking around in the mountains, they know what beasts they will encounter in what season, how to deal with them, and they are also familiar with all kinds of things in the mountains and forests. With such ability, they will naturally be able to avoid many troubles and dangers, go to places that others dare not go, and get good things! This little sister of yours is a kind person, you can go into the mountains with her, and you must not go in without her, otherwise you don't know how to let the beasts bite and eat, and the trap set by the hunters......"
Aunt Tian slapped her aunt on the shoulder: "What makes the beast bite and eat?" You won't say something auspicious? Jinxiu, Jinyu, don't listen to your uncle! ”
The eldest aunt touched his shoulder: "Alas, I'm not teaching children, aren't I?" Just make it clear! ”
Aunt Tian said directly: "Jinxiu, Jinyu, we won't go in the future!" Yes? The girl of the Yang family is going to be married, and it is estimated that she will not go either, you have this money, enough to start a new house, so you won't go, remember? ”
The eldest aunt also chimed in: "Yes, yes, yes!" No amount of silver is worth your gold, and your life is gone......"
Aunt Tian glared at her aunt again, and the aunt had no choice but to grab a snack and stuff it into her mouth, and continued vaguely: "My life is gone, what do you want money for?" ”
Fang Erniu said: "I just think it's a pity, I haven't seen such a good thing!" ”
Fang Sanniu smacked his lips: "Mother, did we eat it, or did we sell it?" ”
Fang Daniu said: "Sell it, the eldest sister wants to use the money!" ”
The eldest aunt glared at his son: "Just you talk too much!" ”
Fang Daniu sighed and looked at Jinxiu apologetically: "I forgot ......"
Aunt Tian didn't say anything, and Jinxiu said: "This can't be sold!" It was my mother who asked us to keep the filial piety of the aunt and the aunt-in-law, and asked the aunt and the aunt-in-law and cousins to try it together, we have all tasted it, it is delicious! ”
Jinyu also nodded hurriedly: "You must taste it, it's really delicious!" My mother also said that people feel much more comfortable after eating! ”
Aunt Tian smiled: "Good boy, we will keep it for food, not for sale!" ”
Jinxiu asked: "Just now Cousin Niu said that the eldest cousin wants money?" We have money, three hundred taels! Tomorrow, the village chief will give us a base for measuring the house, build a big red brick house, a big courtyard, and a hundred taels of silver is enough, right? ”
The eldest aunt glared: "What is the use of a hundred taels?" Are you going to build the rich man's yard with several floors? As I say, it will be enough to live, and let the money be left for some fields. ”
Aunt Tian also said: "Well, that's right! Go back and tell your mother: Ming'er measured the base of the house and your uncle-in-law and I went over to see, if there is really so much silver, there must be a big yard, and a tiled house is also needed, and a hundred taels in advance is enough! Keep some more silver and put it in the field, and when you get married in the future, your mother won't have to worry! ”
Jinxiu took out the silver ticket and handed it to Aunt Tian: "Here are three hundred and thirty taels, how much does the eldest sister use, I still have fifty or sixty taels of silver tickets at home!" ”
Rao is sister heard the two sisters reported the number, as soon as they saw so many silver tickets, Aunt Tian and her uncle-in-law still couldn't help but be dumbfounded, the couple took the silver tickets one by one to look at the light, and the big cow, the second cow and the third cow were not allowed to touch it.
Aunt Tian is not a hypocritical person, she left thirty taels of silver tickets, and the remaining three hundred taels were folded and handed over to Jinxiu: "Your eldest cousin-in-law needs silver when something happens, these thirty taels should be borrowed from you by your eldest cousin, and she will pay it back in the future!" ”
Jinxiu shook her head: "Don't want her to return!" When we buy clothes and snacks for our nephews and nieces! ”
He also drew out a hundred taels of silver tickets and gave it to Aunt Tian: "We will keep two hundred, and there are still some at home, which is enough to build a new house and buy a field." This aunt takes it, and the cousin uses it when he says he is married, and the rest is what we honor my aunt and aunt-in-law! ”
Aunt Tian smiled: "Silly boy, your cousins have their own hands and feet, they don't have the ability to beat the singles, how can there be any reason to let your cousin give money to her daughter-in-law!" ”
Insisting on refusing to collect the cash ticket, Jinxiu said: "Then when we honor our aunt and aunt-in-law, the rest is the money to buy grain - it also costs money to buy grain in the street market, so it is better to buy it from my aunt's house!" After a while, our family will build a new house, and we will have to spend more food, and if my aunt has it, she will provide it all! Until the summer grain comes out next year, auntie, do you think it will be successful? ”
Aunt Tian listened to it, so she accepted the silver ticket: "Success!" The aunt took the silver and went to buy other people's mixed grain, it was better to eat the aunt's! The food needed for the new house, the aunt can get it, and when the time comes, let your uncles and cousins come over to help, and look at the bricks and tiles and wood in the new house, or the men know more! ”
The eldest aunt nodded: "This is natural, I have to follow the craftsmen and take care of them everywhere!" ”
"That's the best, we're still young, and my mother can only do farm work and housework, and I don't know anything about getting up from the house, so I work hard for my aunt to take care of it!"
"Your own relatives, don't go outside!"
Jinxiu wants to pay back the few taels of silver that the aunt gave to Feng Liang's family, saying that it was repaid by the mother, this is the money that the cousin of Da Niu said about his daughter-in-law!
Aunt Tian pushed it back and refused to ask for it again.
Fang Daniu smiled and said, "Cousin Jinxiu, don't worry, we can earn silver, and we won't beat singles!" ”
Fang Erniu joked: "If you can't earn it, I'll go to your east mountain to find matsutake lion's mane mushrooms!" ”
Aunt Tian raised her hand and hit him: "It's not allowed!" I won't let your cousin go! Are you a vegetarian when you are the king of the mountain? ”
Jinxiu was taken aback: "King of the Mountain? Do we have it in Higashiyama? ”
"Tiger, which mountain doesn't have one?"
Splendid: "......"
Auntie, you make it clear, it scared me, I thought there was really a gathering party like Wagangzhai Liangshanbo that occupies the mountain as the king!
Jinxiu said to Fang Erniu: "Don't go, no one will lead the way, it's really difficult to walk in the deep mountains!" I won't dare to go up the mountain casually in the future, really! ”
He also said to Fang Da Niu: "You have also studied for a few years, not to mention going south and north, it is not a problem to go to the county and state city, I have one here, you can give it to your cousins to do!" Didn't the second cousin marry in the county seat? I heard that the county seat is very close to the state city and the provincial capital, and it is naturally very rich and prosperous, and the cousin of the big cow said that the second cousin-in-law is a middle-aged person, you can go to your cousin and cousin-in-law to see if you can find a way, if this road is through, the three cousins are not worried about beating the singles! ”
Jinyu motioned to take out two cloth bags from her back basket and open them, each containing twenty pieces of soap and twenty pieces of soap.
There is nothing good to pack, just cut the old bamboo shell and wrap it, tie it with a thin soft straw in the middle, and expose bright yellow soap and colored soap with different colors due to the aroma at both ends.
Jinxiu introduced the use of "laundry soap" and "bath soap", and Aunt Tian's family was stunned again!
They also use plant ash to wash their clothes, and only use soap horns from time to time, who have ever seen this kind of delicate and beautiful "laundry soap" and "bath soap" like pastries!
Jinyu told everyone how her sister heard what the old Taoist priest said in the pharmacy and how to keep it in mind, some time ago, the sisters were busy for several days, preparing and boiling and drying, and finally made these things to tell everyone.
Fang Erniu was shocked: "Is this thing difficult to do?" ”
Jin Yu smiled: "It's not difficult, it's mainly all kinds of materials on the recipe, as well as some techniques when making it, no one can guess!" ”
That's why she dared to shout like this, and her sister also said: You can say whatever you want, the left and right sides are in my sister's mind, and no one can guess!
Aunt Tian touched Jinxiu's head: "My son, it's really hard for you!" How did this brain come out? ”
The eldest aunt said: "Jinxiu's father is a talented master, of course she is smart and literate......"
"Fart!" Aunt Tian scolded rudely: "If my sister didn't carry his rotten family, would he be able to pass the exam?" If you want to say that he is only as good: he is born with three splendid flowers, and he can recognize a few words by teaching splendid embroidery! ”
"That's it, without this, there will be no splendor!"
Aunt Tian raised her hand to beat people, but her aunt didn't hide.
Several children of the Fang family turned a blind eye to their parents' actions, and Jinxiu and Jinyu watched with amusement.
The eldest aunt pointed to the pile of soap and soap on the table and asked, "Then this is for us?" ”
Jinxiu nodded: "We only made about a hundred pieces of laundry soap, fifty or sixty pieces of bath soap, and we will make it again when we run out of soap." Of the forty yuan, the aunt each kept ten yuan and asked the cousin to take it to the county seat to give it to the cousin, and she and her cousin-in-law would dispose of it. For the rest, the aunt can use it for her own use, or she can give it to relatives and friends such as her eldest cousin, and what others ask, just shake your head and don't know - you really don't know, just say that it was sent by relatives! ”
Da Niu Erniu and Sanniu according to their own preferences, each grabbed a piece of soap and smelled it, very excited, Da Niu said:
"Cousin Jinxiu, I'll go to the county seat tomorrow!"
"We'll go too!" Two cows and three cows shouted.
The eldest aunt and the eldest aunt looked at the three sons with a smile, but they didn't say anything.
Jinxiu said: "The second cousin-in-law is a middle-aged person, he understands all the rules, if there is really a door, he will have to find it at that time!" This is a new thing, and it is also very practical, and it will definitely cause heated discussions after it is released, and it is certain that you are busy running around and meeting all kinds of characters! I'm a woman, it's inconvenient to come forward, so I'll leave this matter to my cousin, and with my cousin-in-law supporting my cousin, there shouldn't be anything wrong. There are also some specific matters that need to be paid attention to, and I will talk to my cousin from time to time...... You don't have to go to Dongshan Village, just pick me up here! ”
The eldest aunt and the eldest aunt understood: "As for those people in the Feng family, they can't smell a little!" Can't let them know! ”
