Five

However, Aunt Liu's words reminded Xia Shangshang that he had to find a way to sell the things he made in the future, otherwise even if he made it in the future, no one would buy it. How can we make the people in the town want to buy all of a sudden?

Xia Shangshang stepped on the sunset and returned home, the air in ancient times was good, the talent was exceptionally clean, and the sunset hit the clouds, reflecting the charming rouge color. Yes! Rouge! Xia Shangshang had a flash of inspiration.

At this time, people didn't seem to have used the concept of rouge gouache, and they worked every day facing the loess with their backs to the sky. Rouge gouache is a luxury item that is destined to be marketed only in the city.

"Mother, do we still have new rice at home?" Xia Shangshang returned home all the way.

Xia Mu looked at her rice jar that was about to bottom out, and said helplessly: "Yes, there is, but I estimate that it will be ten days and half a month."

Well, Xia Shangshang didn't have much expectations. In order to make gouache, new rice is indispensable, and good new rice is also required. Xia Shangshang's plan was to first make gouache that would improve the color of the facial skin, which is commonly known as modern foundation. Consumers only see the usefulness of a thing, and they will naturally buy it. Xia Shangshang is not in a hurry about the raw materials now, the left is only half a catty of new rice, she went to the mountains to pick some mushrooms and sell them for silver money.

"Mother, come and try this aloe vera gel."

Xia Mu carefully opened the clay pot, a fragrance suddenly came to her face, looking at the lovely transparent gum in the jar, Xia Mu was surprised: "Why is this thing so good-looking!" Xia Shangshang smiled proudly, skin care products and cosmetics are originally an art, but modern processes are produced on an assembly line, and the ingenuity has been lost.

Just when Xia Shangshang was about to smear Xia Mu, there was a sudden sound of scolding outside.

A woman with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek face quickly ran over and slapped Xia Mu with her head and face.

"Dead Star! You've really disgraced my mother's face! How can the old lady put up such an ugly ghost with such a short life as you! No wonder Zhiyuan wants to marry the second room, who can't be scared to death if you see your ugly face! ”

As soon as the woman came, she began to curse in a hurry. Xia Mu's cheeks quickly became red and swollen, and the five finger prints on them were clearly visible.

Xia Mu knelt on the ground straight and with tears in her eyes, letting the woman beat and scold.

"Mother, Yun'er's face can be cured!"

"What a cure! I'm afraid that your broken face won't be cured even if Hua Tuo is reincarnated! What a money loser! I ask you, what about the dowry you used to marry? ”

Xia Yun knelt on the ground and was in despair, the dowry of the year was nothing more than some cloth, silk flowers and a few chickens. The cloth had already torn the clothes of her husband and daughter, and the chickens were slowly killed one by one. How many years have passed, and my mother's family has brought up the old things again, just to want money.

"Grandma, you're going too far. How can there be a reason for the dowry to be taken back to the mother's family, and the truth of the water spilled by the married daughter, you should know. Xia Shangshang said coldly.

"What bullshit! Do you still have a part to talk about here? I myself worked hard to conceive a baby and gave birth in October, and I gave her delicious food and drink since I was a child, not to mention the dowry! What is there about her that I don't deserve? The old woman had a stiff neck, and her attitude was extremely tough.

The old woman looked at the dilapidated thatched hut where her daughter lived, and she didn't know the bottom of her heart. The environment here is almost like the cowshed at home! But for the sake of his unsuccessful son, Su's eyes flashed, and he was ruthless. The left and right daughters are married, and the son is his lifelong dependence.

"Mother, I really don't have anything, if there is, I will definitely honor you, but there is no way, I don't." Xia Yun was helpless.

"Then you steal, you rob! Or, don't you look good at the girl! You sell a big family to be a maid. I don't care! Anyway, I'm going to see ten taels of silver in ten days! ”

Damn, Xia Shangshang was speechless. Xia Yun, who was kneeling on the ground, was also stunned, as if she didn't expect her mother to say such a thing.

"Enough mother! Let's go! ”

Su Shi was stunned for a moment, and then scolded: "It's against the sky!" There is no royal law! I'm your wife, and you dare to drive me away? You all fell from me, and everything about yours is mine! ”

There was a crackling sound of falling objects in the house, and the few furnishings in the house were smashed to the Su family, and Su saw that the things that could be used at home were taken, and those that could not be used were dropped. The Su family was so noisy that even the last bag of rice of the Xia merchant wanted to go.

Xia Shangshang couldn't see it, and he couldn't care about filial piety or not.

"Hey! Old lady! You put things down for me! ”

"What are you going to do?" Su Shi hugged something tightly in his arms. I was afraid that Xia Shangshang would snatch it back.

Xia Shangshang ignored her, turned around and went directly into the kitchen, took a kitchen knife and pointed at Su Shi. "Put it down." Xia Shangshang spit out two words coldly, and his eyes were fixed on Su.

"You... -You..." Su Shi was scared, Xia Shangshang looked like a demon who had killed countless people, looking at her, it was like looking at a dead person.

Su Shi threw down his things with a snap and ran away. Xia Shangshang was really speechless, and sure enough, the wicked still had to grind the wicked.

Xia Shangshang pulled up Xia's mother, who was like ashes, Xia Shangshang thought about it and said seriously:

"Mother, you don't have to worry about grandma. Grandma, in the final analysis, gave birth to you and raised you is her own will. In the future, you will be filial every month if you should be filial, and you should not do it, you don't have to worry about it at all. ”

Xia Mu looked defeated, "Shangshang, don't say this kind of thing in the future." She is an old man, and we should honor her. ”

Xia Shangshang sighed. It is too difficult to correct this deep-rooted feudal mentality in a while. Let Xia Mu experience it herself in the future.

"Mother, come over and I'll give you some medicine." Xia Shangshang found aloe vera gel from the mess, but fortunately the clay pot was well sealed and did not spill out at all.

"Shangshang, can this thing still treat external injuries?"

Xia Shangshang gently applied Xia Mu to her face little by little, and Xia Mu's hot cheeks were immediately covered by a piece of coolness, and the original feeling of swelling and pain dissipated a lot.

"This thing can be both beautiful and anti-inflammatory and detoxifying. It is best to use it in the summer. ”

"It's amazing, I don't have that much pain in my face anymore! By the way, Shangshang, did Aunt Liu send it over there? She has been kind to us, but we can't forget it. ”

"Don't worry, mother, I've already sent it over."

Xia's mother took Xia Shangshang to Aunt Liu's house to borrow rice early in the morning. Last night, the Su family made a fuss and took away their last bag of rice. Xia Shangshang mysteriously asked his mother to borrow more rice, she was of great use.
