Chapter 13 Stalls (1)
Yesterday, the ugly orange prepared all the things for the stall, she wanted to carry the burden, one on each side of the two wooden buckets, one for water, and the other for her 'tea bowls', but this can't be done, this water burden is heavy and light, and what kind of burden is it.
Fortunately, there is a "chicken bus" at home, which is actually a wheelbarrow, but this car walks up the aisle and "clucks" non-stop, so it is called this name.
Speaking of which, this car has been put on for some years, or when the Wang family returned to his parents' house, Li Laifu went to buy the car, and the Wang family sat on it at that time, in order to be stable, there was also a lot of baggage on the side of the car, Li Laifu was also young at the time, and he had the strength to push the car, and the two of them went home like this.
Now that Wang talks about this stubble, he still wants to relive the old dream, and sometimes he will joke about the ugly orange, saying that when that time comes, she will take the car back to her parents' house, and she will be drunk when she gets off the ground, and she will be dizzy.
Ugly orange looked at her mother, she didn't answer, she couldn't understand what it was like to take this car back to her parents' house, she only knew that this car had always been used by Li Laifu, and the original acre of land at home had not been scooped by Li Youfu, so his family planted some grain and vegetables, and Li Laifu used this car to pull fertilizer into the field.
At this time, she was a little hesitant to push this car to the village entrance to set up a stall, although the car had been idle for many years, but she didn't know if it was because of psychology, and she always felt that this car smelled like it.
Wang didn't think about this stubble, so he happily wiped the car clean with a rag, urging the ugly orange to push it and try it.
The ugly orange answered, holding the words in his throat, the less people know about this stubble, the better, or who would dare to come to her to drink water.
Now with the cart, it is much more convenient for the ugly orange, and the two wooden buckets are put on one side, and the water is scooped into the inside and the lid is closed, and the 'tea bowl' is put into a bamboo basket and covered with a cloth, so that it looks cleaner.
After eating some casually at noon, the ugly orange pushed the cart out of the house, there was no one on the road at this time, only a few mothers-in-law and aunts went down to the ground to deliver food to their own men, and the rest were estimated to be lazy at home after eating.
Not to mention, the people in their village have no money except for money, food and clothing, and they are quite moisturized at other times.
The ugly orange put down the soles of her feet faster, and when she met an acquaintance, she just said hello and passed, or she chatted on the road, and people asked her what she was doing, how should she answer?
Although this stall is not a shameful thing, but she hasn't set it up yet, it's not necessarily good or not, to put it selfishly, if she puts it on the stall to buy and sell well, and people follow suit, then she can't take advantage of this pot and spoonful to catch some hot food.
It was only a cup of tea from her house to the entrance of the village, and when the ugly orange passed, there were already a lot of carriages and horses parked under the shade of the row of trees, and the people in the car got out of the car and sat down, chatting in twos and threes, and eating some dry food.
The ugly orange looked back and forth, pushed the car under a big tree, she put the car horizontally, don't block the way into the village, and then spread the gray cloth with the word 'tea' written on it on the car, and found two stones to press the left and right corners, and unfolded them so that those who passed by could see clearly.
With everything ready, the ugly orange sat on the handlebar and waited to see if anyone came.
The kung fu of a stick of incense has passed...... Two of them looked at the ugly orange, but they just glanced at it and didn't look away......
Time for a meal passes...... Those who were in the shade put away their bags of dry food, and some of them were ready to hit the road......
The ugly orange couldn't sit still now, and from time to time turned her head to look at her own car, was there something wrong with her, or her handwriting was not clear, and those people couldn't see it?
She was about to be deflated here, Xu was too good to think about herself, but the deal was not done at this time, and she was a little lost for a while, knowing that she was waiting for two days, and then she would come out when the sun was particularly big......
"Girl, what are you buying and selling?"
Just as Ugly Orange was thinking about it, a handlebar man in his forties walked over and asked, pointing to the barrel on the ugly orange car.
Ugly Orange was stunned, in fact, she was a little frightened, she didn't expect someone to come, she swallowed her saliva, "Uncle, I'm a tea stall." ”
When I heard the handlebar, I looked at the car, laughed, turned my head and shouted to the person who was passing by, "Did I say it, this girl is setting up a stall, and you owe me four cents!" ”
As he spoke, he turned around, looked at the ugly orange again, and asked with great certainty, "Girl, will you set up a stall today?" ”
Ugly Orange didn't know what this person's intentions were, and there was more vigilance in her eyes, and she only said that her father would come in a while.
The handlebar style was estimated to see the vigilance of the ugly orange, and he didn't care, and smiled at the ugly orange's words, "Girl, you will tell your father in a while, you can't set up a stall like this, you don't even have a stove, who knows what you are arguing." ”
Ugly orange blinked, it turned out that this was what she was talking about, she pointed to the side of the car with one hand, and said that she wrote miles, and her cloth was a signboard, and the word tea was written on it, which was clear at a glance.
The handlebar looked at the gray cloth on the car, frowned, and scratched his head, "Oh, this, I know, tea, tea, tea stall, but girl, you can't do it like this, not everyone knows how to read, you either shout loudly, or make a stove move out on the hour, it's better than sitting here stupidly......"
The ugly orange saw this handlebar style pointing to the 'water tea' and reading the 'tea', and he couldn't recognize a few words, but this person is a straightforward character, and what he said also makes a little sense, after all, people run long distances all year round, and what she knows is different from what she thinks about herself, and she also leads him to this love, so she doesn't have anything to argue with him, let him say.
Seeing that the ugly orange was so sensible, this handlebar style became more and more nagging, but in the end, it was a little dry, so I asked the ugly orange how to sell this deal?
The ugly orange was stunned again, she didn't expect the business to come to the door like this, she paused, lifted the cloth on the bamboo basket, and said the words that she had pondered, "Two pennies and a scoop of water, but I will open it today, uncle, I will give you a penny and a scoop." ”
The handlebar was fresh when I heard it, "Yo, girl, people are selling bowls on the stalls, you are selling them on scoops, but it saves you money for tea bowls," he touched his body, took out two pennies, and said with a smile, "Yes, give you two pennies, and ask you to open a show." ”
The ugly orange was overjoyed, although the money was not much, it could be said that it was pitiful, but this was the first time she earned money, could she not be happy, especially this businessless business, how much she sold was how much she earned.
After taking the two money, he received the money bag like a baby, and the ugly orange took a gourd scoop, lifted the lid of the bucket, and scooped a scoop and sent it over.
The gourd scoops selected by the ugly orange are not small, larger than the usual bowls at home, she has tried, a scoop of water is poured, and the bowls at home cannot be held.
The handlebar type seemed to be really thirsty, and he drank it in two sips, and the ugly orange looked at it and scooped a scoop for the handlebar type, and then said okay, one scoop of water and one penny, he gave two pennies, and got two scoops of water.
He drank happily here, and looked at those who hadn't left......
