Chapter 155: What Happened to Mengxue
Wang Dali was secretly glad, and listened to Li Xiang again: "Second, I was thinking, we can make some personalized products, such as different colors of lacquer according to the buyer's requirements, or painting personalized patterns, of course, these are all additional money." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info by the way, help me paint that car one day. Also, this batch of bicycles is designed according to the size of an adult man, and the specifications of this batch are implemented as a tentative standard, and a batch of smaller and lighter specifications can be made, and even three-wheeled strollers can be made if necessary. As for how to make a three-wheeled stroller, I have design drawings here, and Boss Wang can take a look at it in detail later. ”
After Li Xiang finished speaking in one breath, Wang Dali was already stunned, and hurriedly found a pen and paper, wrote down everything Li Xiang said, and after Li Xiang determined it, the plan for this series of products was finally completed in a cup of tea.
In the summer dusk, the sun has gradually faded, and only a slanting afterglow remains on the river, reflecting the sparkling surface of the river, showing a heart-warming reddish.
This is a fishing village on the edge of the Tuojiang River, the fishing village of dozens of families is not big or small, when it is dinner time, the children playing by the river look at the curling smoke rising from their chimneys, smell the faint fragrance of rice at the end of their noses, swallow their saliva a few times, but in the end they no longer have the intention to play in the water, each beckoning to go home.
The woman who was still standing by the river, seeing the sound of the commotion just now, disappeared without a trace because of the smell of food, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
The woman looked with great interest at the bamboos stuck in the river, and between them were large fishing nets, and the fish could be seen jumping around at this time, but she knew that it would not be long before someone would come to collect them. It is the season of abundant fish, and Uncle Li will not get less from collecting the net today.
"Sister Xue, my mother called you home for dinner!" A crisp girl's voice came from behind her.
The woman smiled and turned around, the most striking thing on her slightly pale face was the clear eyes, and she was wearing the usual coarse cloth clothes, but she couldn't hide her quiet and elegant temperament, she was Zhao Mengxue, who had a skin-to-skin relationship with Li Xiang.
Zhao Mengxue read her head and said, "Let's go!" ”
The girl was about ten years old, and when she heard this, she hurriedly took two steps closer to Zhao Mengxue and said, "Sister Xue, you hold my shoulder." ”
Zhao Mengxue looked at the girl's thin shoulders, shook her head with a smile and said, "Don't bother you, I'll walk slowly by myself!" ”
The girl's delicate face flashed with disappointment, looked at Zhao Mengxue's legs, and said in a low voice, "My mother has taken care of it." ”
Zhao Mengxue saw the girl's expression and couldn't bear to be disappointed, so she stretched out her arm and symbolically put it on the girl's shoulder, and the two slowly walked towards the house not far away.
"San'er, has your father come back from town?"
"Not yet! My mother said that I would be able to come back in the evening! ”
"And who's going to harvest the fish today?"
"Mother said, if Daddy can't come back, please ask Brother Shui next door to help you collect it!"
The two walked and chatted, and soon came to a small courtyard with a low bamboo fence, the dishes and chopsticks had already been placed on the table in the courtyard, and the meal could be opened when everyone was ready, and the two people sat on the bamboo bench in the courtyard.
Before the little girl San'er pushed open the courtyard door, she saw the two people with sharp eyes, and her little face immediately smiled, cheered, and wanted to push the door and run in, but suddenly thought that she was still doing Sister Xue's crutches, and her face turned red, and she stopped and called through the door: "Daddy!" You're back!
Then he shouted joyfully to the other: "Cousin! ”
The two turned their heads when they heard the sound, and the young man who was called Daddy was about forty years old, and his jujube-colored face was slightly old because he had been blown by the river breeze all the year round; The other person is a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy, with a white and round face, and when he laughs, he reveals the pear vortex at the corner of his mouth, which is extremely cute.
San'er's father saw that Zhao Mengxue was also following behind his daughter, and hurriedly beckoned Zhao Mengxue to come in, and the boy first called his cousin with a smile, and then saw Zhao Mengxue, so he put on a puzzled expression and asked, "Uncle, ......who is this sister?" ”
San'er's father replied: "Fourth son, this little lady was rescued by me by the river a few days ago, and she was injured in her leg and is now staying at home temporarily. ”
San'er hurriedly echoed: "That's what Daddy said." Cousin, why don't you call Sister Xue with me, Sister Xue knows a lot of things! ”
When the cousin heard what his uncle called him, his shoulders immediately drooped, and he said sullenly: "Uncle, our own family, why do we call it like that?" Then he gave a salute to Zhao Mengxue and called, "Sister Xue is good!" Zixi is polite! ”
The old man said with a solemn face: "Etiquette must not be abolished!" Don't be like this, the fourth son! ”
Zhao Mengxue already felt that the two nephews and uncles got along quite strangely, obviously they were uncles, but they were so respectful to their nephews, and then heard this boy call himself Zixi, his heart was even more moved, and he blurted out his surname, but he thought that if he met for the first time, he was afraid that it would cause others to be wary, so he hurriedly suppressed his mood and returned a salute to Zixi.
"Uncle Li went to town today, but he sold the fish?" Zhao Mengxue asked with concern.
That year, the man Uncle Li read his head and said with a smile: "But coincidentally, today someone in the town married a relative, and when they saw that my fish was fresh, they took all the fish." ”
"Daddy paid the money back?" San'er interjected and asked.
"Don't worry about it, kids!" Uncle Li touched San'er's head and said.
Zhao Mengxue asked quite strangely: "The tax on fish in the Great Song Dynasty is relatively light, if the fish that Uncle Li catches on weekdays cannot be sold, it is not just a good way to make bream, and it can be sold at a good price when the weather is cold." Why do you owe money? ”
"Sister Xue doesn't know, although my big Song fish tax is light, but now the season of fishing with bamboo as a beam is not much, once this season is over, my uncle will rock the boat to go to the river to fish, the fishing boat is blown by wind and rain, the loss is great, just repair is a lot of expenses. Besides, this bream needs to be salted with a thin layer of salt on the fish, and you know that this salt is not cheap now! Zixi shook his head and said.
"I see!" Zhao Mengxue didn't expect that the fishermen's lives would be so difficult, and they would only be able to make ends meet for a year. She looked at Zixi again and asked, "Since you call Uncle Li your uncle, judging by your clothes, your family must be quite rich, why is your uncle in debt, and your nephew is standing by?" ”
Zixi looked at his uncle, sighed, and stopped talking.
At this time, Aunt Li happened to come out with the food, and Uncle Li hurriedly waved his hand and smiled: "Don't say it, seeing that it's not early, let's have dinner first!" ”
Zhao Mengxue saw that the two of them didn't want to say more, so they also stopped.
After dinner, Zhao Mengxue put out the candle early and rested because there were more people in Uncle Li's family, and it was inconvenient to go to the courtyard to cool off.
At this time, the moonlight in the sky was bright, shining through the window into the room, and the silver light sprinkled all over the bedside, and the simple room suddenly seemed extremely quiet.
Zhao Mengxue touched her right leg, which had not yet recovered and was in a faint pain, and remembered the situation when she encountered the robber falling off the cliff that day.
The **** was coerced to the edge of the cliff by a group of robbers, and in order to save her body, she gritted her teeth and risked a jump, not to commit suicide. It's just that when he fell off the cliff, he suddenly saw Xiang'er also jumping off the cliff and following him. (To be continued.) )
