Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Frustration of Selling Albums

"I... I say... These three days are interesting enough! Two... Twenty chapters! The swallow was hunched over the table, sweat all over her forehead.

The shopkeeper Zhang, who was sitting opposite, looked at the sweaty swallow, subconsciously moved the chair back, covered his nose with a sketch, and beckoned to the scholar on the side, signaling him to pour a glass of water for the swallow.

"Shopkeeper, how are my sketches selling lately!" As soon as the swallow entered the house, he looked left and right and didn't see his own work, so it was hard that he hadn't put it out yet!

"Swallow, I know you're good at drawing, but... But now most people go to buy Dream Back, I put two copies of yours on the table two days ago, and I'm still there! So..."The shopkeeper put down the sketch and lowered his voice as he spoke.

The smile on Yanzi's face froze: "So... So you haven't earned a penny yet? ”

"Yes" After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he took a sip of the tea in front of him, to hide his embarrassment, and then looked at the sketch in his hand, it was indeed good, but why no one bought it!

For a while, the room was quiet, only the sound of the scholar sweeping the floor remained.

"So you still want this drawing?" Yanzi pointed to the sketch on the table and asked in a low voice, thinking that he could make some money by relying on the sketch, but he didn't expect to be frustrated for the first time!

I feel a little uncomfortable, such a beautiful sketch, no one even looks at it, I don't expect it to be compared to the dream, but also... But that's not the case!

I saw the shopkeeper take out the first ten chapters from the twenty chapters of the sketch, and looked at the swallow: "Take half of it first, and then take a look, if it is sold, I will come to you to get the rest!" It's not getting early, so let's go back quickly! ”

"By the way, don't forget the Dragon Boat Festival competition after a while, maybe you can make a name for yourself and sell some at that time!" Shopkeeper Zhang told again.

"Oh, got it!" Yanzi nodded, but sighed in his heart, wait until then, there is still a month, and I will not make money!

It was indeed not early, and the swallow stood on the empty street with his ten-chapter sketches, looking up at a round of bright moons, and sighed heavily.

On the way back, Yanzi began to silently calculate the accounts in his heart, thinking about how many silver taels he had earned in the past few days, and it seemed that only the burning fairy grass and fairy grass jelly came into the account, no more, no less, three taels of silver from the proprietress.

"Alas, it's like going home! I miss my big bed, I miss my air conditioner, I miss my sparkling water, I miss my mobile phone network even more, no matter how I read novels, I don't want to go home, I don't want to make money, and my handsome husband, how.. Why am I an exception! The swallow drooped her head and pouted to herself.

System Xiao Ai heard Yanzi's words: "You have always been an exception. ”

Yanzi was speechless, Xiao Ai is hurting herself again?

No, I want to go back, but before Yanzi can ask, I saw the figure of my younger brother Dabao running towards him.

"Sister! You're finally back! The younger brother Dabao rushed to Yanzi's side and hugged her thigh.

Looking down at him, I saw a fleshy little face looking at him, and his black eyes were full of joy.

"Sister, my mother made delicious food today, just waiting for you to come back, and sister, my mother also embroidered a purse today, the embroidery is beautiful, my mother said, this purse can still be exchanged for money!" Dabao took the swallow's hand, chattered non-stop, and shook his head really cutely.

When I arrived at the door of the house, I glanced at the courtyard of the Zhao family opposite, and there was another quarrel inside, which sounded like the sound of Sanniang Li scolding her son Shishi.

"Look, sister, is it a thief who is good-looking, I didn't know that my mother would embroider a purse before, and the butterflies on it are like real ones!" Da Bao Teng came over with an unfinished embroidered purse and pointed to the blue butterfly on it to show the swallow.

I saw a butterfly with blue wings on it come to life, but it really landed on the purse like a real butterfly.

Yanzi took it and walked to the side of Niang Ruxin, and saw that there were three purses next to her that had not begun to embroider.

"Mother, your body hasn't been recuperated yet, don't embroider the purse, this embroidery has to keep your head down for a long time, and then you should have chest tightness again!" Yanzi said, put the purse aside, looked at Ruxin and felt a little tight, raised her hand and gently patted her thin back.

"It's okay, just a few purses, Dabao and I finished our work in the morning, and we were fine in the afternoon, just to embroider the purse to pass the time, and also to exchange some silver, this one purse can be exchanged for five cents!" Ruxin said, a smile crossed her face.

The candles on the table shone golden-red and swayed when blown by the breeze, and the rustle of the wind through the leaves was heard outside.

Ruxin took Yanzi's hand, lowered her eyes slightly and looked at it and murmured: "This morning I took Dabao to Xinghualou, your boss also told me, my daughter has the ability, and now our mother and wife are still relying on you to make money, you are so tired every day, my mother also wants to do her best to earn some silver, this embroidered purse will not take much effort, it's okay!" ”

After that, Ruxin pulled the swallow in her arms, and her skinny hand gently stroked the swallow's head, doting on intimacy.

"That's it, sister, you can rest assured, now you and your mother make money to support the family, and when I grow up, I will make money to support you!" Dabao looked up at the two of them, walked up to him and hugged his mother's thigh, and put a small face on it.

Yanzi stretched out his hand and pinched Dabao's tender little face, and made up his mind that he must make life better, and no one buys the album now, so sell it himself and engage in promotions! There is also ice cream powder, which will be available tomorrow! You have to work hard to make money! Work hard!

Early the next morning, the swallow went to the library without stopping.

Since it can't be sold in the library pavilion, then I will get Xinghualou, I don't believe it when I sell a table, such a good-looking album can't be sold! Swallow went to the library and asked for all the albums he didn't sell, the last time the painter painted too much, and now no one wants it, so bring it over and sell it yourself!

You don't have a mobile phone to play while you're waiting for dinner, how boring! I'm showing you a free art book! In the backyard of Xinghualou, Yanzi stood in front of the proprietress Linghua with a smile on her face with the album and ice cream powder she had just come.

"Sister! Big beauty! The most beautiful hostess in the world! The swallow looked at Linghua with a smile, and the sound of pinching her throat made Linghua subconsciously take two steps back and touch the goosebumps on her body.

"You... What do you want? Something is wrong with you today! Looking for me? Linghua glanced at the swallow and continued to fiddle with her abacus.
