Seeing that Qiao Li was preparing dinner, Qiao Yi also followed in: "Eldest sister, you cook, I'll light the fire!" Qiao Li was startled and hurriedly shook her head: "You still stay in the house, I'm used to doing it myself, you're not well, what if you let the fumes in the kitchen stain the wound?" Qiao Yi insisted: "Eldest sister, don't you think I'm doing well all this day?" It's so fragile, don't worry, I'll just find a cloth to tie the wound on my head and keep it from being exposed. Seeing that Qiao Li was a little hesitant, Qiao Yi immediately promised: "I promise that I won't show a little wound, I've been lying down for several days, it's really uncomfortable not to let me do anything, you just let me help!" Qiao Li stepped forward and carefully lifted the cloth used to bandage Qiao Yi's head, and looked at the wound: "Okay, you go and change the cloth and come back." ”

"Okay" Qiao Yi happily walked to the West House, thinking that this pot must be burned, otherwise the pot will not be allowed to burn today, and how can he let himself pick flowers and herbs tomorrow, so this pot will still be burned today anyway.

Qiao Yi opened the cotton cloth, and a wound appeared on his forehead, which was not deep, it looked more like a little abrasion, Qiao Yi picked up the small porcelain bottle and put it under his nose and smelled Tian Qi is indeed a good hemostatic medicine, quickly cleaned the wound, wrapped the cotton cloth after wiping the medicine, turned around and ran to the kitchen to sit by the stove. Qiao Yan also burned the pot, so he made a fire neatly, Qiao Nan boiled a pot of sweet potatoes mixed with rice in the inner pot, copied a vinegared cabbage with the outer pot, and fried a bean.

It was already completely dark, Qiao Yan had just put out the fire Qiao Cheng Zhang came back with Qiao Liu, after washing his hands, the food was served on the table, and the family sat down to eat together, Qiao Liu chattered about the interesting stories in the village, occasionally Zhang would turn a few words, Qiao Yan took two mouthfuls of food, thought about it, raised his head and said to Qiao Cheng and Zhang: "Daddy, I discussed a way to make money with my eldest sister today." Qiao Cheng and Zhang both looked up in surprise, and even Qiao Nan and Qiao Liu stretched their necks curiously.

Qiao Yi paused and said: "Today, when the eldest sister embroiders the purse, she talks about a purse for three pennies, so a delicate and beautiful purse is only sold for three pennies, which is too low, but our purse has no characteristics and is not more expensive than others, so I thought of a way, sew a mezzanine in the purse, pick some flowers and herbs to dry and sew in the interlayer of the purse, so that each purse has a floral fragrance and medicinal fragrance, not only smells good but also good for the human body, do you think it is good?" ”

After listening to Qiao Yi's words, Qiao Cheng and Zhang glanced at each other and saw a surprise in each other's eyes, because the purse is still very hot, if it is really as Qiao Yi said, this is indeed a way to make money.

Before Qiao Cheng could ask anything, Qiao Liu hurriedly said: "It's a good idea to put flowers and herbs in a purse, so the purse is also full of flowers, and many girls must like it." Qiao Nan glanced at Qiao Yi and asked hesitantly, "Then how to calculate the price of the purse?" ”

Zhang also said: "That is, how to calculate the price of the purse?" ”

Qiao Yi thought for a while: "If it is a flower, you can agree on the final price according to the preciousness of the flower, whether there are many in this season, and how easy it is to pick, and the herbs mainly depend on the efficacy and price, what do you think?" ”

Qiao Cheng and Zhang's nodded: "Then that's it, it doesn't cost anything horizontally and vertically, the grass in the field is almost removed, and your father can do the rest by himself, I will embroider purses at home with Li'er tomorrow, and Liu'er and Nan'er will go to pick flowers and some common herbs in our countryside." ”

Qiao Li, Qiao Liu and Qiao Nan all nodded in agreement, and Qiao Yi hurriedly received it when he saw that he didn't mention his own matter: "I'll go with my second sister tomorrow." Seeing everyone's disapproving gaze, Qiao Yi hurriedly explained: "I say this for a reason, I'm already fine, I'm still burning the pot today, there's nothing at all, besides, Xiaosi hasn't been to school for several days, his homework can't be left behind, otherwise Mr. I'm afraid he will be dissatisfied, besides, it's more convenient for girls to pick flowers, and you can rest assured that I will go with my second sister." ”

Qiao Cheng and Zhang looked at each other, Qiao Yi seized the opportunity and immediately glanced at Qiao Liu: "Ah, yes, Daddy, you can rest assured that I take the third sister with you, and you can't always let the third sister hold back at home." Qiao Liu chimed in.

Qiao Cheng nodded: "Then you should be careful, don't go deep into the mountains", Qiao Nan looked at Qiao Yi and hesitated, Qiao Yan turned around and smiled at him comfortingly.

The dishes and chopsticks put down were taken away by Qiao Li, Qiao Liu followed to clean up, Qiao Cheng went down to the river to take a bath like most of the old men, Zhang picked up the needle and thread and embroidered the purse, this time it was according to Qiao Yi said that there was an extra layer sewn, Qiao Yi washed his hands and sat down and picked up a sewn purse to play quietly, but his head turned quickly, the color of the purse is changeable, maybe a color should be sewn into the same flowers and plants, so that it is easy to distinguish.

Just like this pink in your hand, what kind of flower should pink go with? By the way, acacia flowers, acacia, relieve depression and calm the nerves, regulate qi and appetize, nourish yin and replenish yang, and can calm the five organs and mind. What about purple? Lavender, refreshing, relieving nerves, but also mosquitoes, cockroaches, mites, yellow? "Third sister, what are you thinking?"

Looking at Qiao Liu, Qiao Yan hurriedly explained: "I'm thinking, there should be a kind of anther in each color of lotus, so that it is easier to distinguish, and it is easy to set the price, what do you think?" ”

Qiao Liu nodded: "Sounds good." Zhang also said: "This is indeed better, and it will not confuse the price of each purse." ”

The eldest sister also sat down and embroidered the purse seriously, what about Qiao Nan? Qiao Liu was still talking to Qiao Li and Zhang's about the purse, Qiao Yan got up and walked to Qiao Nan's west hut, the west hut is Qiao Nan's room, and Qiao Yan's three sisters' rooms are very close, a few steps away, Qiao Yu pushed open the door of the west hut, and found that Qiao Nan was reading a book under the lamp, the lamp at home is a kerosene lamp, and it hurts his eyes if the lamp is not lit. Qiao Yi walked over and turned on the light, and the "third sister" Qiao Nan whispered. "What's the matter, little fourth, what can I tell the third sister?"

"Third sister, in fact, I took leave with my husband." "I know, Xiaosi, I know that you took leave from your husband, but you took leave because I was sick, and now, I am fine, I can do a lot of things, and you have to do your things like the third sister, you have to study, this is what you should do." Qiao Yi sighed and rubbed Qiao Nan's wrinkled little face: "I know you're worried about me, but I'm fine, so you have to be good and happy, don't let the third sister worry." ”

Qiao Nan looked at Qiao Yan seriously and nodded obediently: "Well, third sister, I know." ”

Qiao Yi couldn't help but smile: "Okay, don't look too late, go to bed early if you're sleepy, and go to school tomorrow!" ”
