Chapter 65: I can't follow the old lady's routine
At four o'clock in the morning, I didn't wait for Yan Huicheng to send back the mold. The city gate will be closed at the end of the day, and the door will not be opened until the time is reached! Daji has already started to set up stalls, and it is still the last place, and Mrs. Niu has set up a row of charcoal baskets early.
Selling bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, wicker dustpans, and buckets, they were placed on the ground, and Mrs. Niu chatted with him again.
The young man who sold the bamboo basket said in his heart, I can't talk to you old ladies, you can say too much, I bought four big bamboo baskets for ten yuan, and I was scolded by my grandfather when I went back.
"Don't stop talking! Just make a basket, can't I let the boys go up the mountain to chop bamboo for you? ”
The young man just doesn't talk, he doesn't sell, he doesn't sell anything.
Mrs. Niu turned around and looked directly at the young man selling bamboo baskets, "You tell your family, I want a basket two feet and an inch long, four inches deep, and weave a basket cover. ”
The young man simply squatted down and buried his head in the stall.
Mrs. Niu slapped her face, "You kid, what kind of business is this?" What are you doing crouching? Tell my aunt if you can win! How much is it, you can say how much! ”
"You can't haggle, don't haggle and you can do it." The lad finally spoke.
Mrs. Niu said unhappily: "Zhong, you say how much it costs first, I set a lot, don't shout the price and win." ”
The young man thought about it and said very unconfidently: "Fifteen wen one." ”
"What? Fifteen Wen? How much is a pound of brown rice? ”
Mrs. Niu's voice was raised an octave, "How much is a pound of multigrain noodles?" How dare you say it! Open your mouth and ask for two buckets of miscellaneous money, if you don't hit it like this, you have to be real in business, you look at my little granddaughter, my family's charcoal, people give six Wen, my granddaughter wants four Wen, and I will reduce the price for others. ”
The young man lowered his head again, why don't you talk about sixty big meat buns? Hum! I won't tell you.
"If you don't win like this, you have to come and go in business, you want a price, I pay a price, when you don't ask for one, I have to give one, fifteen don't win, so be it! Seven texts, seven texts in one basket. "Mrs. Niu is rare to be generous, she wants to say five cents!
The young man did not speak, hoping that the day would soon dawn, and that the people who had come to the market would arrive soon.
"Why don't you talk again?" Mrs. Niu stomped her feet and said, "Are you doing business?" How can you do business without saying a word? Where is your home? No, I'll go and tell you to go home? ”
Dong Xiaoying came out yawning, feeling like she was about to get up as soon as she fell asleep every day, wondering why others were in better spirits than me?
"Old lady, it's time to eat, I'll come and see, you go back!" Dong Xiaoying looked at the bamboo basket, and her eyes lit up.
"Can you give it to do? I want it to be so big, round, with a cylindrical lid on top. Dong Xiaoying gestured to the shape of the cake.
The young man glanced at her, "Fifteen." ”
"Huh? Well! It can be customized! Okay, you can make one for me first, do you want me to draw a picture for you? Dong Xiaoying was full of thoughts, how to package the birthday cake, with a bamboo basket, and then wrapped in colored paper, but the paper here is more expensive than cloth.
Mrs. Niu stopped doing it, "You agreed, fifteen wen bought two buckets of grains, you go back!" I told him. ”
"No, old lady, huh? Well? Dong Xiaoying was pushed away by Mrs. Niu and asked her to go back to milking the cow.
When Fang Yue came out, the field was already busy. Today, there is a large set that can't be burned in the kiln, and the grandmothers said that it can't be learned by outsiders.
"Here you go, my mother will bring it to you to eat." Fang Yue handed the mushroom cake to the basket seller.
"Don't." Don't you dare to eat your food, let the old ladies see it, and take a few more from my basket.
Fang Yue said: "Don't stop eating!" Delicious, don't lie to you. It's okay, my grandmother is back, and the family is busy! Grandma is going to go to the city with Grandma Hua after breakfast, and she can't take care of you. ”
The basket seller looked around, and finally took the cake, and was stunned as soon as he took a bite, reluctant to swallow it.
"Yummy! Eat quickly, there are no children at home, don't let them see it. Fang Yue said with a smile.
The basket seller took the rest of the cake in his arms and took it back to his grandfather to eat, and the soft thing was suitable for his grandfather's teeth.
"Why don't you eat it?" Fang Yue tilted his head and asked.
The basket seller lowered his head and said, "Take it back and give it to grandpa to taste." ”
Fang Yue learned from her grandmother, patted her thigh and said, "Oops! It's really a filial child. Don't carry it, I'll go back and get you two more. ”
"Sister, what are you doing?"
"Oh my God, you're back." Fang Yue made a very exaggerated expression.
Chang'an was instantly cured by his sister, that's right! I haven't seen my brother for a few days, how can there be any reason not to miss it? He goes into the space every day, but he can't always touch his mother and sister, and he has no mobile phone contact, so he is very worried about his home.
In fact, Dong Xiaoying didn't let her daughter enter the space, she left a note for her son, and when her daughter went in to refresh it, the note returned to a blank sheet of paper. Only if the girl does not go in, the words can stay inside.
Fang Yue thought to herself, if you don't come back, the eldest aunt and the second aunt may not be able to save their arms.
"Take a look at the stall for me, and I'll go back and get you something to eat." Fang Yue pulled the old brother and was about to leave.
The basket seller looked around, my God, the one staring at me is also the old lady here, that ...... Collect your eggs! Stare at me for what.
Mrs. Song said in her heart, after eating our expensive cake, I dare to ask for fifteen wen, see if I don't go to your house!
Mrs. Niu called Mrs. Hua to carry the basket, had breakfast, and was about to hurry to deliver the goods.
Sending the two old ladies away, Dong Xiaoying went back to try the egg beater, not to mention, when the mechanical production is efficient, the hand crank turns a few times, and the egg liquid begins to bubble.
"Wait a while to find a piece of pork skin, rub it well, don't rust for a few days." Dong Xiaoying's beloved thing has one more thing, the egg beater.
The charcoal that Fang Yue set out was burned, and he could still supply charcoal for the roast every day. My mother was hypocritical, and she said that there was smoke with firewood, which made the cake smell bad.
"Mother, I want to eat egg tarts, you see these can't be used anyway, you make egg tarts!" Fang Yue took her mother's hand and shook it.
Chang'an was very cooperative, and his sister said that he would bring back the small iron bowl for making egg tarts.
"The mold is still playing, I thought it was enough, who knew that you still had to increase the amount, the mold of the birthday cake just came out, Ming Zhangbo arrived, saying that he wanted to order the mold, and Grandpa Jin's workshop has not stopped."
Dong Xiaoying held her daughter's little face, "But my daughter is tired, look, she is already thin, her little chin is pointed, I will make you an egg tart, let's eat, eat more, and make up for it." ”
Holding his daughter in one hand and his son in the other, "Let's go, drink milk, Chang'an has been tired these days!" Later, I'll go to the market to buy meat and give you stew. ”
Aunt Zhao is training her daughter-in-law, "Look at other people's talented daughters-in-law, they broke a pot when they started, what are you worse than her?" It takes three pots to learn, play a pot to earn two cents, you make money, you can't take it home, you have to pay a fine first, not to mention the burden, then it's not the money that loses?
How much money does Mingyuan's daughter-in-law have enough to harm you? If you break a pot, I'll do the math, why do you have to pay out thirty or forty yuan, even if it's fined, it's not like throwing it out with your left hand and throwing it out with your right hand. ”
Oh my God, these old ladies are fine! It's not foolish to give a rough cost estimate at a glance.
"Aunt Zhao, do we still have pigskin, I ordered an egg beater, and I have to rub it out quickly." Dong Xiaoying asked.
Aunt Zhao turned around to find the pigskin, "They were all saved when they were hunting wild boars, nephew and daughter-in-law!" You bring it to your aunt, I'll help you rub it, your wrists are swollen, your hands are not strong enough, and if you don't rub it well, the iron will fall in love with rust. ”
Chang'an turned around and ran back to hug the egg beater, don't be polite, what can I do, you're busy with you! Let Mom rest for a while, you're welcome.
"Oops! Can this iron pimple crack eggs? Aunt Zhao heard about the usefulness of the egg beater, and looked at the egg beater's eyes.
"I can fight, and I will hit the bubble after shaking it a few times, which is faster than our hands." Dong Xiaoying said.
Aunt Zhao smacked her lips, "This costs a lot of money!" And to spend silver money, how much money can you make in that pot? There are so many of us, who wouldn't make a big effort? What do you do with money? ”
Chang'an rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "There's no way, my mother can't bear to look at my aunt, the aunts are tired, and it took more than a hundred taels!" ”
"More than a hundred taels? When will I be able to earn it back? Aunt Zhao raised her voice and shouted.
