Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Last Day

When I woke up, I looked refreshed.

At this time in the morning, the head is the brightest time of the day, so the dog always chooses to think about what to do in the morning, thinking while cooking, and does not delay.

Really.

When a pot of rice is cooked, I happened to think of it, and I lifted the lid of the pot and smelled it, okay, the porridge is a little mushy.

Drove up the few people who were lying in bed, and when they sat down on the stools with their bowls in their arms, the dog commanded in a loud voice:

"Today, except for Dasha and the few dogs who continue to deliver firewood, everyone has to go to the tea shop to help sell couplets.

I'll go first in a while, you wait for Wang Xiaoyi and them to come over, and go over together. ”

Looking at their puzzled eyes, the dog said mysteriously: "Whether you can wear new clothes this year, I count on today." ”

The words "new clothes" simply can't be heard by them.

The dogs hadn't finished eating, they were already full, and they put down the bowl and shouted, "All new clothes!" And he ran out the door.

Hurriedly chased them out and asked, "What are you doing in a hurry?" ”

They replied: "I'm going to Xicheng to call Wang Xiaoyi, they came over earlier!" ”

Dogs: ......

"I didn't say that I would buy them new clothes, whoever called someone would give him new clothes!"

A few people asked suspiciously, "Don't you all have it?" ”

A suit of clothes and shoes, the cheapest one has to be consistent five! More than thirty people, they can't afford to sell their dogs, these idiots.

Seeing that they all came back obediently, the dog pointed at them and scolded: "Use your pig brains, so many people, where do I have the money to let them all wear them?" Just a few of you have it, one by one, take care of your mouths and don't say the wrong thing! ”

A few people lowered their heads and said they knew, and they were stunned.

The dog waved his hand and said, "Don't stand there stupidly, what should you do!" ”

Several people dispersed in a hurry.

The dog didn't want to lose his temper, the last time he miscalculated, he almost ran to the street to beg for food, and since then the dog has to think about everything before and after.

Go back to the house and finish the rest of the meal, today will definitely be busier, I don't know when the lunch will be, turn over and lock the door, and walk to Gao Xiucai's house with the basket on my back.

Today is the last day of the market, and people who haven't finished buying things are going to be in a hurry, so as soon as the day is brightened, there are three or three people walking on the way to the market, and the anxious dog runs away.

When he arrived at the door of Gao Xiucai's house, he bent over his knees and gasped for breath, and before he could catch his breath, he heard the courtyard door open with a hula.

"Hey, little shopkeeper, what are you doing here? Gasping so fast! ”

The dog didn't bother to speak, and waved his finger to the basket to signal him to put the couplet inside.

Gao Xiucai smiled, and stuffed a large volume of couplets into it, and the dog sat on the ground with an "ah".

Turning his head to look, Gao Xiucai was staring at himself with a puzzled look.

"I said Gao Xiucai, the kid didn't stand firm, and you put it in so suddenly?"

Gao Xiucai said: "You said to put it in, so I put it inside!" ”

The dog didn't bother to say anything more to him, so he "hummed" on the ground and stood up.

More than 300 volumes of couplets, the stuffed back basket was full, and the dog was about to turn away, when he heard Gao Xiucai say: "There are still golden couplets that I haven't taken!" ”

Seeing him flash in and hold a large roll of couplets wrapped in linen, the dog hurriedly said, "Gao Xiucai, can you help the kid send it over?" I just took my salary, too! ”

Seeing Gao Xiucai frowning his eyebrows, hesitating, and reluctantly, the dog was about to say more, when he heard a sentence from the east room, "You go, help Xiao Langjun send it off, I will be fine!" ”

The soft female voice made the dog's face happy, and she hurriedly hugged her fists and said loudly to the house: "Thank you, sister-in-law!" ”

The person in the room laughed and said, "It's a lot old, what sister-in-law should be called aunt!" ”

Gou'er hurriedly changed: "Yes, auntie, my name is Zhao Gou'er, I sell tea in front, if you have time, you can come to me to drink two cups of tea!" ”

The people in the house: "Alas, it's old, it's useless, thank you Xiaolangjun for your kindness, you have something to do and get busy, you can come to the house to rest more when you have time!" ”

The dog hurriedly replied: "Okay auntie, the kid often comes to Gao Xiucai to play when he is free!" After speaking, he noticed the age of the two, and quickly changed his words: "Find Gao Xiucai to ask for calligraphy!" ”

The house laughed and said, "Go, go, go!" ”

The dog walked out with the basket on his back and Gao Xiucai.

It didn't take long to get to the tea shop, when the two of them arrived at the door, Liu Hong and the four of them had already arrived early, Da Banya was sweeping the open space in front of the door, Shi was busy lighting a fire in the hall, and Liu Hong and the two were sorting out last night's couplet.

When I saw the two dogs, I hurriedly walked over and said hello.

The dog nodded and said, "Liu Hong went to get five hundred money and gave it to Gao Xiucai." ”

Liu Hong nodded and turned around and walked back, and the dog led Gao Xiucai into the house.

took out the couplets in the basket and put them on the counter, took the package containing the golden couplets in his hand, slowly carried them to the east hall, took them out one by one, and hung them on the rope.

The red paper, coupled with the golden font, coupled with a hand of elegant and smooth calligraphy, the eyes of the dog who saw it were about to pop out, and he was about to raise his thumb to exaggerate his talent, when he heard the door shouting "Good calligraphy, such beautiful couplets!" ”

The dogs quickly turned their heads to look, and it turned out that it was Zhao Zhutou who walked in......

The dog rolled his eyes and said in his heart, you can't write a word, where do you know what calligraphy, you just don't know how to pretend to fool people, you see this Gao Xiucai was praised by him and his face turned red.

Raised his hands and clasped his fists and saluted: "Why is Brother Zhao free?" ”

Zhao Zhutou didn't pay attention to the dog, walked directly to the golden couplet, looked at it carefully with his chin on his lean, and said in amazement while watching: "This golden character is so beautiful!" I don't know if the color will fade or not? ”

After speaking, he stretched out the gold dust on the nail buckle, and the dog quickly reached out to stop it, never thought that he would be noticed by Zhao Zhufa earlier, relying on his height and arm length, he took it off, and said to the dog with a smile: "What are you anxious about, such a good word has to let me read it carefully!" ”

After speaking, several people stared at each other, holding a pair of golden couplets, and slowly walked out of the room, and then disappeared.

Dogs: ......

hugged his fists and said to Gao Xiucai: "That, Gao Xiucai doesn't know if you can help write another couplet?" ”

Gao Xiucai said: "As long as you count the salary, you can write as much as you want!" ”

The dog nodded hurriedly, turned around and took the five hundred copper coins handed over by Liu Hong, and said, "That Gao Xiucai, please write it out quickly!" The kid will have to use it for a while. ”

While saying and handing him the money, Gao Xiucai took it, and after a little upset, he clenched his fists and said, "Don't worry, I write fast!" ”

After a pause, he said, "I have to go home and write!" ”

The dog knew that he was going to take care of his family at home, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, I'll let them run over and get it in a while!" ”

Gao Xiucai nodded, and walked back with gold powder, ink, red paper, and something.

Looking at his figure far away, the dog suddenly remembered that Liu Tou and Liu Sanlang were coming, sighed, chased out the door and shouted at him: "Gao Xiucai!" Please write three pairs out. ”

Seeing him nod and wave his hand from afar, he signaled that he understood, and saw him turn around and speed away.

"This old guy, it's not that he doesn't give him money, why do you run so fast!"

After complaining a few words, he turned to Liu Hong and said: "Today will be busier, if no one comes to this tea shop, don't open it first, today we are divided into five stalls, there are still two here, Liu Hong, you go to the Xicheng Market, Da Banya, you go to Nanchengfang, find a person with a lot of roads wide alleys to sell, and you go to Beichengfang for the jar." ”

"Each person takes a hundred pairs, how to say how to sell, do you remember?"

A few people nodded.

The dog was not at ease and said: "You must collect the money first and then give the couplet, lest some people take the couplet and not pay the bill!" ”

Zhao Zhutou, who was about to walk to the door of the ya, sneezed twice, touched his nose and said: "On time, this little fox is scolding himself, no, I'll go to him in a while!" ”

The dog also sneezed, but he didn't know who was talking about him, wiped his nose and continued: "If anyone dares to make trouble, report the name of Zhao Zhutou, do you hear it!" ”

Several people said in unison: "Got it!" ”

"Any questions?"

The four humanitarians: "What if we can't be busy?" ”

The dog waved his hand and said, "Xiaoyi, they will come over in a while." ”

I divided the couplets into piles, and I was afraid that the road would be torn, so I found some linen cloth and wrapped them.

Listening to Wang Xiaoyi's unique throat laughing, he walked out with Liu Hong and a few others.

As soon as the dog came out, the people who were making noise outside immediately quieted down, and in recent days, there have been more angry people, and these people were scolded and scared by the dogs.

Looking at the nearly 30 people in front of him, the dog was a little proud, coughed, as if facing an army of 100,000, and said majestically to this group of beggars: "Today's steamed buns are enough, you have to work hard!" Got it? ”

A group of beggars replied loudly: "Got it! ”

The dog raised his hand and pressed it: "Whoever does a good job today will be rewarded with five cents, and whoever is lazy will be punished for not being allowed to eat, do you hear?" ”

The people below pulled their throats and said, "I heard you! ”

"Just hear it, Wang Xiaoyi will give you a list in a while, and you can take the three of you to take the couplet and send it to others!"

Wang Xiaoyi said: "I know more than a dozen words!" ”

cough cough cough ......

Forget that this thing can't read, and look at the group of people in front of you: "Who among you knows how to read!" Well, more than a hundred words! ”

Half of the hula people below raised their hands, and the dog immediately nodded to the three babies who looked a little smarter and said, "You guys, follow Xiao Yi!" ”

The servant nodded, and the dog said to Wang Xiaoyi again: "Slow down on the road, don't tear up the couplet, go to someone's house, you must get the order back, especially if the money is not less, you will be thrown into the dung pit if you are less!" Did you hear that? ”

Wang Xiaoyi shuddered and hurriedly said, "I know Brother Dog!" ”

The dog nodded, and said to him, "If anything happens, let people run back and call me!" ”

After speaking, he waited, entered the house and handed him the package wrapped in golden couplets, and reached out and took out a stack of orders from the money bag and said, "Don't lose it!" ”

Xiao Yi nodded hurriedly, took it carefully, and saw that the dog waved his hand and turned around and left with the three of them.

The dog said to Liu Hong again: "You also lead three people each, remember that the money is not allowed to be less, and I will reconcile the account when I come back!" ”

The three of them nodded, and after picking people, they also left with couplets.
