Chapter 382 Returning to the hometown to drag fruits
The husband and wife returned home together after finishing their work, Shi Lei had already boiled the bath water, and Tian Chunfang went to take a bath first.
When she came out of the shower, Bai Aiguo had already counted the night's turnover.
Tian Chunfang put the dirty clothes in the laundry basin: "Today's income has decreased a lot." ”
Today, the family sells in two places, and there is no way to bring too much wine, and there is no income from the wine, so Tian Chunfang said so.
Bai Aiguo nodded: "It's less than usual, but it's not too much less, and I also earned more than fifteen hundred."
Be content, if it weren't for our Fluttershy's ideas, we wouldn't be able to make that much tonight! ”
"That's it!" Tian Chunfang sat at the door of the bathroom and said while washing clothes, "Not only can you not make money, but you also have to lose money, you quickly put the money up and take a shower, wash and sleep." ”
Shi Lei was lying on the bed in his small room and heard the conversation between his parents, and thought to himself, Bai Mengdie has really changed a lot.
has become the mainstay of the family, and her parents listen to her.
The next morning, the weather was quite competitive, not only did it not rain, but it was also exceptionally cool because of the heavy rain yesterday, and the breakfast of Bai Mengdie's mother and daughter was still selling very well.
After selling breakfast, Bai Mengdie went home to study, and she took time to eat breakfast every day while doing business, just to save time.
Today, I had to go back to the countryside to pull watermelons and peaches to sell in the city, so lunch was eaten half an hour earlier, and Tian Chunfang and the others also came back from the rental house in advance.
Before eating, Tian Chunfang deliberately took out the ten small triangles made for peaches to show Bai Mengdie: "You see if it's okay." ”
Bai Mengdie looked at it, wow, it's realistic, and because it is made of lace, those little panties are very sexy.
Bai Mengdie put a pair of small underwear in the palm of her hand to admire, and asked curiously, "Mom, where did you get these lace fabrics?" ”
Tian Chunfang brought the food out of the kitchen: "I went to the tailor shop to buy it, and one dollar can buy a lot of palm-sized cloth." There's a lot left at home, and if you still want it, I'll do it for you. ”
"No, that's enough." Bai Mengdie put the peach small inner into the pocket of her skirt, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
After eating, it was twelve o'clock, and Chen Ziqian appeared downstairs at Bai Mengdie's house in his small truck on time.
Bai Mengdie heard the horn downstairs, ran to the balcony to look down, saw Chen Ziqian's small truck, said hello to Bai Aiguo and his wife, and flew out of the house like a fat swallow.
Shi Lei looked at her departing back, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Chen Ziqian has the ability to always help their family, but he can't help except to help the family do some work, and he can't help but feel lost.
Bai Mengdie got into the car and asked Chen Ziqian with concern if he had lunch.
Chen Ziqian asked with a smile while driving: "If I didn't have lunch, would you invite me back to your house to eat now?" ”
Bai Mengdie said seriously: "The family has finished eating, there is nothing left, if you really haven't eaten, I will buy you a boxed lunch on the way, don't dislike it." ”
Chen Ziqian likes the feeling of being valued by her: "I've eaten it, I'll tease you~"
Bai Mengdie slept late last night, and took a nap after eating at noon every day, so she had already developed the habit of taking a nap, so now that she was sleepy, she didn't talk to Chen Ziqian anymore, and leaned on the back of the chair and fell asleep quickly.
Chen Ziqian looked at her distressed from time to time, she had such a hard time, but he couldn't help her much~
It was noon, there were relatively few vehicles on the road, and the road was unimpeded, and after more than an hour, Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian arrived at the gate of Old Man Bai's courtyard.
Although it was already a little past, no one in the Bai family took a nap, just waiting for the two children to come.
So as soon as he heard the sound of cars outside the courtyard, the old man ran out with the snow leopard and asked, "Have you had lunch?" ”
"I've eaten it." Bai Mengdie came out of the passenger seat: "Grandpa, hurry up and load the peach and watermelon into the car." ”
"Oops! Good! The old man turned back to the crowd who came out, "Quickly move the peaches and watermelons to the car." ”
Except for the old lady, who was still wearing a plaster cast on her left hand, everyone else started to move the watermelons and peaches that had been picked and piled up in the yard to the car.
The peaches are packed in bamboo baskets, and they only need to be lifted to the car, but the watermelons are a bit troublesome, so they have to be carried to the car one by one.
The three Cailing sisters and brothers all ran over, and said to the old man unhappily: "Grandpa, you sold all the peaches and watermelons, don't you leave some for us to eat?" ”
The old man was full of courage when he saw that the three sisters and brothers wanted to eat, but there was no work in his eyes, and he was a teenager, and he didn't say that he helped carry the fruit.
Therefore, he was not angry and said: "All of them want to eat for nothing, they all come to move fruits, and I will give you ten catties of peaches and five big watermelons when I go back!" ”
On a hot day, who wants to work, CRBT left a few stupidly.
The old man shook his head.
The Bai family transported fruits to the city, which was not small, attracting many villagers to watch.
Everyone envied the old man's peaches and watermelons that could be transported to the city and sold at a high price, so they could only sell them to fruit sellers at a low price.
The next door was so lively, but Yuan Yuan didn't show up much, only glanced at the door of his yard a few times.
But just these few glances, which happened to be seen by Bai Mengdie, Yuan Yuan quickly retracted into the yard in embarrassment.
Bai Mengdie carried a big watermelon to the truck and put it down, then went into the yard to hold the watermelon, and asked the old lady: "Did Yuanyuan dispose of the child in her belly?" ”
"Who knows." The old lady said disdainfully, "I only know that she has found a top tank, and the man has already come to her house to propose marriage, and I am afraid that a happy event will be held soon." ”
Bai Mengdie was surprised: "How did she find a receiver so quickly?" ”
The old lady lowered her voice and said: "Yuanyuan seduced a descendant from another village, cooked raw rice in the grove and cooked rice, then the posterior was honest, and when he saw that Yuanyuan had already given it to him, he came to propose marriage." ”
Bai Mengdie was speechless for a long time, will such a calculated marriage be happy in the future?
In a short time, almost all the peaches and watermelons were loaded into the car.
The old man handed over a basket of high-quality peaches and a large basket of high-quality watermelons to Chen Ziqian: "This is our family's best peaches and the best watermelons, take them back to your grandfather and your parents to taste." ”
He also asked Bai Sheng to give Chen Ziqian all the two old hens he caught in the morning and the eggs he had saved at home during this time: "We rural people don't have anything to give, these two old hens and these eggs are also brought back to your parents and your grandfather to eat, although they are not valuable, but they are a little bit of our heart." ”
Chen Ziqian hesitated for a moment and accepted them all, he was afraid that if he didn't accept the old man, they would not think well in their hearts, thinking that he would not look down on these things.
The old man and the old lady all smiled happily.
Seeing that the truck was not full, a few villagers came over and laughed and asked Chen Ziqian to bring their peaches and watermelons, and they went to the city with the car to sell them.
Li Yuhuan raised his voice and said, "Don't bother with this idea, Fluttershy has to go to her grandmother's house to pack peaches and watermelons, how can there be room to store your fruits?" I really have a spare place to store my mother's fruit. ”
At this point, she didn't continue, but everyone understood what she meant, and even her mother's family didn't have her turn, how could it be an outsider's turn?
The folks blushed and shut up.
The old man said to Bai Mengdie: "There are more than 2,300 catties of watermelon, you can count it according to 2,000 catties, and the extra few hundred catties will be lost when they are sold, so don't count it." There are more than 1,300 catties of peaches, and you only count the money according to 1,000 catties. ”
Bai Mengdie remembered them one by one in his heart.
The old man asked the two Bai Sheng brothers to carry two large bags of rice and a pot of twenty catties of peanut oil and put them on the car: "Your family will eat these 100 catties of rice and these dozens of catties of oil first, and the rice will mature in more than half a month, and grandpa will send new rice to your family to eat at that time." ”
Bai Mengdie responded and was about to leave with Chen Ziqian, but the old lady took a large plastic bag of dried river shrimp with her uninjured right hand and handed it to her: "This is the dried river shrimp you want." ”
Bai Mengdie took the dried river shrimp and drove to her grandmother's house with Chen Ziqian.
Yesterday, Mrs. Bai informed Tian Laohan's family, so early this morning, their family also picked all the watermelons and peaches and piled them in their yard.
As soon as Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian arrived, their family immediately loaded watermelons and peaches into the car.
When I was loading fruit for my grandfather's house, there were also many onlookers in my village.
Many villagers who looked down on the Tian family before and stepped on it at any time, seeing that his family now has someone to support them, and then looking at the Tian family, there is a little dare not slack off in their eyes.
Someone asked who Chen Ziqian was, and Chen Ziqian took the initiative to answer that he was Bai Mengdie's friend and his family was very powerful.
He is not a high-profile person, but he deliberately high-profile this time, just because he wants the villagers to want to bully the Tian family in the future, and weigh the consequences first.
Although it was his first time in Tianjia Village, he could also feel the status of the Tian family in the village.
He thought to himself that this time he came to the village as a good friend of Bai Mengdie, and next time he didn't know what his identity would be.
All the watermelons and peaches were quickly loaded onto the pickup truck.
Old man Tian told Bai Mengdie that his family planted more than one acre of watermelons and picked more than 5,500 catties, but only asked Bai Mengdie to count the money according to 5,000 catties.
There are five peaches in their house, so they picked more than 3,300 catties, and they only rounded them up, calculated as 3,000 catties.
Bai Mengdie said: "How can you round it all, although you have to send some scales to customers in the process of buying and selling, it will not send hundreds of pounds of scales out, and each customer will send one or two taels of scales is already a discount."
Watermelon is calculated as 5,300 catties, and peaches are calculated as 2,200 catties. ”
Old man Tian said kindly: "Silly child, give more food to your family, this far-away help us drag fruits to the city to sell, and you can't eat some of my family's fruits." ”
Mrs. Tian took two baskets of eggs to Bai Mengdie and Chen Ziqian, and said ashamedly: "You have traveled all the way to help our family transport fruits to the city to sell, and grandparents have nothing to thank you, just take these eggs." ”
Tian Chunping also took a big plastic bag of wild water chestnut to Bai Mengdie: "You have loved to eat water chestnut since you were a child, this is what your cousin fished for you, you take it back to eat." ”
He handed her a bucket with water, and there were two big black fish in the bucket: "This big black fish was caught by me and your grandfather at night, you can take it back and eat it, don't sell it."
The soft-shelled turtle you sold for us last time was exchanged for two thousand yuan, during this time I sent crayfish to your family every day, and I also saved a lot of money, there is no shortage of money for these two big black fish, don't sell it, ah! ”
Bai Mengdie responded with a hello, turned her head to Chen Ziqian and said, "These two big black fish, I'll make one for your grandfather to eat, and you can get it at noon tomorrow." ”
Chen Ziqian happily agreed, and the two of them drove away together.
Bai Mengdie looked at the green in her eyes, and suddenly shouted, "Stop!" ”
Chen Ziqian didn't know what was going on, so he hurriedly braked.
As soon as the car stopped, Bai Mengdie jumped down and ran towards the lush pine forest on the side of the road.
Chen Ziqian thought she was going to pee, so he drilled into the woods, so he also got out of the car and prepared to guard for her, but saw her happily picking pine needles.
Chen Ziqian asked in surprise: "Why are you picking these pine needles?" ”
Bai Mengdie quickly picked a big hug of pine needles: "Use pine needles to steam buns at the bottom, whether the pine needles are steamed buns, steamed dumplings or steamed steamed buns, they are particularly fragrant and delicious." ”
Chen Ziqian heard her say this and helped her pick pine needles, and the two picked a lot.
After picking the pine needles, the two got into the car and continued to drive to the city.
When she arrived in the city, Bai Mengdie looked at her watch, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon.
Bai Aiguo is right, delay here, delay there, three hours is really not enough.
Chen Ziqian slowed down the car and said to Bai Mengdie: "Can we sell all these peaches and watermelons now?" I took an afternoon off today. ”
Bai Mengdie didn't know what to say to staring at him, he was always so good to himself.
It is impossible for Bai Mengdie not to be moved, she is not a stone person who has no feelings.
"Since you've taken a leave of absence, let's go buy an electronic scale first."
You can't sell fruit without scales.
Chen Ziqian drove the car to the street where the scales were sold.
Bai Mengdie got out of the car and bought a scale, bought a lot of plastic bags, thought about it, and bought a watermelon knife, and then returned to Chen Ziqian's car.
Chen Ziqian looked at the watermelon knife in her hand and asked in surprise, "Why did you buy a watermelon knife?" Are you afraid that people will rob you of your fruit? People rob you of your fruit and I still have me, as for you to use the knife with others? ”
The corners of Bai Mengdie's mouth twitched wildly: "I didn't buy a knife to use a knife with others, but I was afraid that someone would buy a watermelon and worry about buying a bad melon or a raw melon, and if I wanted to cut it open, of course I had to cut it for others, would it be possible for people to spend money to buy an inedible watermelon back." ”
Chen Ziqian admired, "Fluttershy, I think about you everywhere for those customers, you deserve to make money." ”
Bai Mengdie disagreed: "Business should be like this." ”
In her later life, she could return the raw or bad watermelons she bought in the supermarket with a small receipt, and they would refund the money without saying a word.
However, customers are still in a vulnerable position in this era, and it is difficult to return a bad watermelon bought at a fruit stand, unless it is a shrew who can scold the street or a fierce man to achieve the goal.
Like the kind of women and men who are easy to talk at a glance, the stall owner will not give them back.
Although it is a one-shot deal, Bai Mengdie is not willing to pit any customers, and no one's money is blown by the wind.
