Cai Er squatted on the ground, with a few bamboo brooms next to him. With his head down, he held a sharp knife in his hand, and carefully split the bamboo strips drawn from the broom very evenly in the middle. Arrange them one by one, then bend them into various shapes and tie them up with white cotton cord to form a shelf.

Lin Zhu squatted on the side with his hands on his cheeks and looked at it with admiration, and the paper kite shelf that Cai Er had tied out could already be preliminarily seen. It's amazing.

Cai Er tied up another one and put it aside, and Lin Zhu said, "Dad, it's an eagle." ”

Cai Er nodded slightly and continued in his hand. Cai Er Niangzi was battering in the kitchen with the only little white flour left.

Lin Zhu looked at it for a while, stood up and walked out of the door......

When she came back from the town, she didn't tell her father and mother that Yan Wuwu was punished, and the two husbands and wives were honest and poor. Seeing that my daughter just used some vegetable boxes and exchanged them for flowers, paper, white paper, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, I want to make some paper kites to make some money. The daughter said that she was going to the capital to sell, and the capital is not very far from here, and it is almost half an hour.

The two of them are still very naïve to think that as long as they do it secretly, they will not be known by the master's family

So the two of them are doing it very hard.

Lin Zhu went out and went directly to Lin Zhang's house behind the vegetable garden.

Although Caier's family of three lives in the vegetable garden, the three Lin brothers did not separate. This large but dilapidated courtyard is also her home, and this is the first time she has taken the initiative to go to her so-called own home.

Walking down the slope behind the vegetable garden, he subconsciously glanced at Young Master Jin's chic courtyard, and saw that the gate was hidden, so he gently pushed the door open and poked his head in.

Mei Jiucheng, who was bent over, walked around the yard, heard the sound of pushing the door, looked up and saw Lin Zhu's petite and tender face, and was stunned. The old man's face changed into a cute smile and asked very kindly: "Little girl, your name is Baozhu." ”

The old man's voice was very amiable, and Lin Zhu said crisply: "Grandpa, it's not Baozhu, it's Lin Zhu, you can call me Zhu'er." Sister Jiu'er is not? ”

After speaking, a pair of clear eyes swept around the yard, and said to himself, "No, I'm going next door." ”

After that, he closed the door and left.

Mei Jiugong looked at the closed door and muttered, "It's the little county lord, it's just like the princess when she was a child, pitiful, ......." ”

He is the old housekeeper of the family, and the princess married the young master who was not yet the prince, and he was just a few years older than the current Lin Zhu, which is an enlarged version of Lin Zhu's current appearance.

Lin Zhu came to the dilapidated gate, the gate was wide open, the threshold was already pitted, and through the gate, he saw Lin Yun Lin Duo sitting under the half-withered apple tree with an embroidery hoop to learn embroidery.

Seeing her, both of them looked a little surprised.

Lin Yun glanced at Lin Duo, who was also puzzled, suspiciously, got up and put the things in his hand on the small stool and walked out, and asked, "Zhu'er, why are you here?" What's the matter? ”

Lin Duo hurriedly followed, tilting his head with his eyes open.

Lin Zhu looked at the courtyard, Lin Zhang's two aunts were not there, neither were the uncles and third uncles, and the three cousins didn't know where they were. beckoned and motioned for the two to go out.

Lin Yun and Lin Duo glanced at each other and walked out of the gate.

Lin Yun's handsome face asked with a rare smile: "Zhu'er, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Zhu waited for her to get closer, and then secretly glanced at the courtyard to make sure that no one had noticed.

He lowered his voice and said, "Find something for the two of you to do, and when it's done, I'll give you ten copper plates a day." ”

, Lin Yunlin Duo's eyes turned red when he heard that there was money to be made, and the two of them were so big, they had only seen money and had not taken money. Money is out of reach for them, they can only watch from afar, they can't play closely, it is mysterious, magical, and desirable.

Lin Yun asked vigilantly, "What to do?" We don't steal people. ”

In her consciousness, such a good thing must be illegal, and breaking the law in her consciousness is stealing people.

"We're not thieves, stealing anyone!" Lin Zhu glanced at her and said, "That's right, my dad tied some paper kites, which looked beautiful and lightweight, and I tried to fly very high." In a few days, it will be the third day of March, and it is the time to release the paper kites, and I want to take these things to the capital to buy them, and they will definitely sell them at a good price. But you also know that I am now a maid in Yanfu, and I can't do this for the monthly salary, I want you to help me. ”

"We don't know how to do business, and my mother said that it is very embarrassing for her daughter's family to show up." Lin Yun shook his head hurriedly, his daughter's small business is not a decent thing.

"Your mother is talking nonsense, don't steal or rob anyone else. Besides, there's money to be made. Why are these two little girls' thoughts so pedantic, very similar to before the reform and opening up, she was very serious and enlightened: "Think about it, we make money, buy good food, wear good clothes, or not eat enough and wear good clothes." ”

Before Lin Yun could speak, Lin Duo hurriedly said, "Naturally, it is good to dress well and eat well." ”

"That's right." Lin Zhu said: "Delicious and beautiful things are bought with money." Did Grandma give you money? Did the uncle give you money? ”

"Can you eat white bread and candy? Can you wear floral clothes and embroidered shoes? ”

"Is there a beautiful step shake, hairpin ring?"

"Do you have beautiful silk threads, embroidery frames, and embroidered cloth?"

Lin Yun and Lin Duo shook their heads together. These things are unthinkable.

Putting other things aside first, the white-flour bun candy made them drool when they talked about it. Especially these days, when the end of the month is approaching, the money from the second uncle's family has not yet arrived, and the rations have not yet arrived. At home, there are idle meals, one meal a day, and the soup is not watery.

Lin Zhu saw the change in the eyes of the two.

"So, we have to make our own money." She said passionately: "With money, those things will be there just now, Ming'er, let's go to the capital, you are thin-skinned, just watch it for me, and I will do everything else." As long as the carefree son doesn't meet, it's easy to say, if you are bumped into, you will say that it is the uncle and the third uncle, and change it for pocket money. Don't worry, I will count my words, no matter whether the paper kite is sold or not, I will give you ten copper plates and two steamed buns every day. ”

The temptation of steamed buns is too great, Lin Yun is still a little hesitant, during this time she just wants to have a good relationship with Lin Zhu, to see if the second uncle can help her find an errand for a maid in Yan Mansion. Even if it doesn't work, the carefree boy and the handsome young master Jin go to the vegetable garden from time to time. If you have a good relationship with Lin Zhu, you can find an excuse to go often, and it's good to see beautiful men more.

She didn't expect that she could cooperate in a relationship, whether it was better to agree or not.

Lin Duo can't take care of so much, eating white flour buns to fill his stomach is more important than anything else. She agreed: "Zhu'er, tomorrow morning, you bring steamed buns, and I will go with you." ”
