In this era when the countryside is not very full, snacks and other kinds of luxury goods, everyone eats melon seeds and peanuts on weekdays, although they are the incidental local products planted on the edge of their own fields, but the best way is to fry the melon seeds and peanuts to eat, and it is also saved.

Yu Mingyue and her mother spent most of the day at home, making fried and boiled melon seeds with several flavors, Kong Xiaoyu, who had already tasted the taste during the day, had already made up her mind in her heart, but after Kong Mingying, who returned home from work in the afternoon, ate it, even if she heard that Kong Xiaozhu helped with the idea, she didn't believe that Kong Xiaoyu could do this.

Kong Mingying directly thought that it was a smart and sensible approach that Yu Mingyue learned from the city to get into the eyes of money, Kong Xiaoyu was at best just a coolie as a handicap, and praised Yu Mingyue and didn't say anything, and secretly laughed in her heart that Kong Xiaoyu was a mother, and she even wanted to share credit with the child to be praised, and felt that her daughter-in-law had become concerned about her praise, and she was pinched by a lot, and her mood became better for a while.

Although Yu Mingyue was a little surprised, why her mother would say this, but she didn't think much about it, after all, this statement was what she wanted the most, and she directly began to plan in her heart when she would encourage her brother-in-law Kong Xinggang to enter the city to sell goods.

Seeing that the Chinese New Year was getting closer and closer, on the morning of the eleventh day of the lunar month, Yu Mingyue followed the two adults in the family into the city to sell vegetables, and openly stayed in the government compound to "play" under the pretext of sending fried goods to the Wang, Liu, and Chen families.

Later, when the three old ladies were busy cooking, as before, they took the opportunity to go out to the yard alone to play, ran to the street, and spent 30 yuan for 3 jiao each, bought back 100 snakeskin bags, and bought 5 plastic sheets for 1 yuan each.

Carrying a snakeskin bag that was not heavy, a plastic sheet, and a circle of fine nylon rope that I had asked for from the grocery store owner, I went straight back to the rented courtyard, and in one of the rooms, I put half of the pine nuts and fresh cone chestnuts in the space into the bag, and the remaining half were piled directly in the house.

The snakeskin pocket is sufficient, Yu Mingyue didn't want to finish it, but she felt that the price of fried and processed pine nuts and cone chestnuts should be higher, so she left half of it in the empty house, ready to wait for Kong Xinggang to help after Kong Xinggang arrived, take the remaining pine nuts and cone chestnuts to the kitchen to make several flavors of finished products, and then take them to the purchase station to sell.

When the Zhang family moved out, they sold all the furniture, but the big iron pot and the big earthen stove in the kitchen were left at the request of Yu Mingyue, and the old man Zhang was also generous by nature, and he also told Yu Mingyue when he left, saying that there were two small vegetable gardens in his yard that were less than 1 minute, and Yu Mingyue's family could also grow some vegetables to eat at will.

Yu Mingyue didn't know why, but she was still grateful for receiving this love, but where did she have time to drive down to farm, but at this time, the undemolished earthen stove and big iron in the kitchen were put in handy.

As for the small persimmons in the space, Yu Mingyue spread a plastic sheet in another room, and then piled them all on top, because of the unique preservation function of the space, the current small persimmons are exactly the same as just picked, Yu Mingyue tried to eat a bite earlier, but only this small bite astringent the mouth and tongue, and now I have to wait for Kong Xing to come, help take them to the yard to dry, and make them into delicious fruits that can be eaten, before they can be sold.

Got everything in order, and when he left, he opened the windows of the two rooms with things piled up, and Yu Mingyue locked the door and left. Although there are a lot of things and there is no one to guard in the courtyard, this place is not far from the road, and there are neighbors not far from the left and right, Yu Mingyue is not worried about things being stolen in a day or two.

That night, Yu Mingyue did not live at Mrs. Wang's house again, but stayed in a hotel directly with Yu Tianzhou and Yu Zhiqing for one night, and directly drove home together after eight o'clock in the morning the next morning.

Yu Mingyue has already made up her mind, she must set the time to go into the city to sell fried goods before her brother-in-law goes up the mountain to herd sheep, after all, thousands of catties and goods are piled up in the rental house and no one takes care of them, and she is not afraid of a day or two, but it is not safe to delay the time.

Since there were two troubles on Kong Xingming's wedding day, Yu Mingyue didn't dare to enter her grandmother's house, so she had to run directly to Yu Mingyan's house, and finally Yu Mingyan secretly called Kong Xinggang at the risk of being implicated.

The three of them mysteriously ran to the back ditch of Yu Mingyan's main house (the ditch specially set aside for drainage behind the main house), and Yu Mingyue said the purpose of recruiting everyone to gather this time.

As soon as Yu Mingyue finished speaking, Kong Xinggang looked like I had already guessed, and laughed proudly and excitedly.

"Hehe, Xiaoyan secretly called me, I knew that most of them were going to discuss going into the city, we have collected a lot of melon seeds these days, and we will definitely be able to sell them at a good price before the year, but"

Kong Xinggang, who was originally excited, paused for a moment, and said with some confusion on his face: "Alas, if it works, I want to follow Xiaoyue into the city tomorrow, but I don't know if someone will take me to herd sheep tomorrow." ”

Yu Mingyue is also worried about this problem, since her brother-in-law began to herd sheep, she can be rotated for two or three days at most in a month, and then her eldest uncle and second uncle still go to the city every other day to sell vegetables, and the work in the fields is not reduced but there are two less strong laborers, her brother-in-law has no chance to rest at home, on the one hand, he is busy in the fields, on the other hand, her brother-in-law Kong Xing has just been addicted to herding sheep and picking up prey, and the family thinks he is too hard, and wants to change him for a day, but he doesn't do it.

When Uncle Kong Xingming got married, he was made such a fuss, I thought that my grandfather came to the house on the third day and walked around, although the grandmother, who was the most difficult to settle in the family at that time, was not as warm and kind as before, but she didn't say anything unpleasant in front of her grandfather, she thought that this matter was over.

But who knew that a few days later, when she was taking the opportunity to go into the city to rent a house in Renyi District, her grandmother didn't know what rumors she heard in the village, so she actually killed a horse pistol, and killed Tang Wanfang's vegetable field in all directions, and quarreled and fought with Tang Wanfang, who was working in the field, and then went to her grandmother's house, and quarreled with her grandmother who was embroidering at home.

She didn't hear these things talk about adults when she went home, or when she was collecting melon seeds, she heard it from the mouth of a kid named Xiaodong in the village.

Alas, Xu felt that it hurt the feelings of the two families, or maybe her grandfather spoke, anyway, her two uncles didn't go to sell vegetables for a few days, and worked at home every day, and then her grandfather looked for it, and I don't know what to say, the two uncles began to staggered with her family again, and went into the city to sell vegetables the next day.

At this time, although the eldest uncle Niu Guizhi married into the door, under normal circumstances, it should be regarded as adding a labor to his grandfather's family, but from the experience of his previous life, this Niu Guizhi will not be willing to work in the field at all, except for cooking at home with his grandmother, it is a small thing such as embroidering insoles in the house, and it is impossible to expect Niu Guizhi to herd sheep in the sky, and it is even more impossible to expect her to go to the ground.

Yu Mingyue was frowning and thinking about the countermeasures, and Kong Xinggang looked at Yu Mingyue expectantly after his eyes rolled wildly for a while.

"Hehe, Xiaoyue, whether my brother-in-law can enter the city this time, and whether the small business of the three of us can make money, it's all up to you."

"Rely on me?" Yu Mingyue pointed to her nose and asked, seeing the treacherous smile on Kong Xinggang's face, she sighed in her heart, and instantly understood what idea he had in his head.

"It's not impossible for me to beg my grandfather, but the three of us have a small business, but we started it secretly, if my grandfather asks, I can't tell the truth, right?" After Yu Mingyue finished speaking, she smiled intentionally embarrassed: "Uncle, as long as you come up with an excuse, whatever you say, I will go and plead with my grandfather." ”

Yu Mingyue threw out the problem, but sighed secretly in her heart: What is the small business of hiding from adults, since the moment of collecting melon seeds, at least the four adults in the family have not hidden it, after her grandfather and father found out, when they went into the city to sell vegetables again, they went to the purchase station to inquire about the prices of pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and peanuts purchased in Renyi District.

But the so-called plan in the plan, it doesn't matter if you can hide the matter of reselling melon seeds, as long as you can hide the fact that you can live in the city and rent a house as a warehouse, and the most important thing is to hide the matter of taking out pine nuts and other things in everyone's space, which is the secret that she Yu Mingyue must keep in this life.

Yu Mingyue already had a plan in his heart, and Kong Xinggang, who was a chess piece in this strategy, was completely stumped when he heard the question thrown by Yu Mingyue at this time.

Although Kong Xinggang is nearly 16 years old, since he was born, he has only been to his grandfather's house 40 miles away from Caiyun Village, and all the way is still a big mountain forest, because his grandfather's family lives in the mountains, and the second farthest place is in the mountains and forests where sheep are grazing, and the third and most prosperous place is the market in Taiping Township, four or five kilometers away from his house, and there are roads all the way, but this is too unconvincing.

At this time, let him find a suitable excuse, and instead of going up the mountain to herd sheep, he really can't find an excuse to leave home for half a day or a day or two.

Seeing that Kong Xinggang was really embarrassed, Yu Mingyue couldn't bear to tease him anymore, and smiled directly: "We don't hide the matter of collecting melon seeds at home every day, we don't hide it from the adults at all, let's tell the truth that we want to go into Renyi District to sell those fried goods, and early tomorrow morning, follow my grandfather and them into the city."

"No! No way! Kong Xinggang waved his hand with a resolute face: "If you tell the adults, Xiaoyue, you and Xiaoyan's money don't have to be paid to the public, but the money I earn must be confiscated by my mother, you don't know, I didn't save a few yuan for the money I sold mushrooms and pine nuts earlier, and now I am very poor." ”

The more Kong Xinggang said, the more painful it became, and his masculine face wrinkled, thinking earlier that this was a business done in a secret partnership, and he was counting on saving some money, everyone else bought a TV, and he had already planned to save a private house and buy a TV to watch at home.

I have long known that my uncle protects food, and this time I asked him to partner, I really didn't choose the wrong person, and this kid would not tell me about receiving a large number of pine nuts in the warehouse and earning a lot of money.

Yu Mingyue's eyes rolled, and she proudly hooked her fingers at the two people next to her, and after seeing Kong Xinggang and Yu Mingyan getting closer, she whispered: "I'll tell you, it doesn't matter if adults know about selling melon seeds, they will know when they know, and when they enter the city, they will definitely give you a big surprise, that's a big deal of money, what are melon seeds, it's all small money, adults like to collect as much as they want, uncle, you can relax and wait." ”

"Really? Xiaoyue, children can't deceive people, don't you know what a lot of money is? ”

Kong Xinggang asked a little suspiciously, and the excited Yu Mingyan couldn't wait to take Yu Mingyue's hand and asked, "Xiaoyue, Xiaoyue, what kind of surprise can you tell me quickly." ”

Yu Mingyue rolled her big eyes and stared at Yu Mingyan, before she admonished: "Sister Xiaoyan, when you get to the city, you will naturally know what the surprise is, but you must promise me, no matter what you see or how much money you get, you can't tell any adult in the family, can you do it?" ”

So strict zhòng? Don't be a bad thing that will get beaten, right?

Thinking of this possibility, Yu Mingyan shrunk her neck, but she had always looked at Yu Mingyue as a horse, and immediately raised her hand to promise: "Xiaoyue, don't worry, even if I am killed by my mother or my grandfather, I won't say it, you believe me." ”

"Hmm." Yu Mingyue squeezed Yu Mingyue's little hand hard, and chuckled: "Sister Xiaoyan, don't worry, it's not a bad thing, it's just that you must not tell adults." "My cousin, whether in her previous life or now, is so honest and trustworthy, although she is young, as long as she promises something, even if she will really be beaten to death, she will not say it.

Feeling that her thoughts were about to sink into the memories of her previous life, Yu Mingyue shook her head, and forced herself to arrange: "Uncle, I'll go to the field to beg my grandfather, just say that we will follow my grandfather and them into Renyi District tomorrow to sell the melon seeds we received recently, and if the time is late, we will stay at the three grandmothers' houses in Renyi District for one night, and grandpa will definitely agree, but you have to remember the other uncles, don't say more, let alone say that you leaked your mouth." ”

Seeing that Kong Xinggang agreed, Yu Mingyue chuckled and said to Yu Mingyan: "Sister Xiaoyan, grandpa, I also said this when I went with you all the way, with my grandfather and father going into the city together, even if you can't come back at night, if you want to live in Grandma Chen's house, grandpa won't worry, after selling things tomorrow, take you and my brother-in-law to walk around the district."

After discussing the matter, we can act together, Kong Mingfu also knew about the three children collecting melon seeds for a long time, and even knew that Kong Xinggang picked olives every day without being tired, and secretly put them by the ditch behind the wing room, and secretly sent them to Yu Mingyue's house every night.

Not to mention Yu Tianxiang, Yu Mingyue has always hurt Yu Mingyue very much, and he also loves Yu Mingyan very much, knowing that there is no danger in entering the city, the child will do this or to earn private money, so he didn't think much about it, and only told Yu Mingyan that he should be a sister and let his sister generously, so he responded.

That night, Yu Mingyan lived directly with Yu Mingyue for one night, and the next morning, just after dawn, Kong Xinggang also wore his most decent set of sky blue cotton clothes, and when he married his eldest brother, the adults bought a new army green rubber-soled shoes and rushed to Yu Mingyue's house.
