Qi Jiuli took a look, the layout was similar to his own, but there were more furniture, not only boxes, but also wardrobes, and there were two Eight Immortal Tables and eight benches in the house, it seemed that he was eating in this room.

"Come up to the kang." Chi Lingmiao stretched out his hand and pulled Qi Jiuli onto the kang, "Your body is just fine, you can't catch a cold, by the way, take off your jacket outside, don't get out of the house and get cold when you go back." ”

What Chi Lingmiao said was reasonable, the four of Qi Jiuli took off the thick jackets outside, and there was a jacket inside, which was just right in the house.

"Jiuli, don't bear it if you feel uncomfortable, look for Dr. Qi, your body has to be stable." A middle-aged man who looked forty or fifty years old, holding a cigarette stick in his hand, looked at himself amiably and smiled, Qi Jiuli knew that this must be an uncle, sure enough, this wind and sun are busy, people are a little old, and the uncle is not even forty according to his age.

"Uncle, it's okay, it's so good." Qi Jiuli replied with a smile.

Qi Shan smiled and nodded again and again.

"Nanachi." Qi Shan beckoned to Qi Qizhu.

"Uncle." Qi Qizhu made a gesture respectfully.

For Qi Qizhu's crepe salute, Qi Shan was very useful, this was the only one of them who had obtained a child's birth, "Good, good." ”

Qi Shan took out a string of copper coins from behind him, "Qizhu, you should go to the private school the day after tomorrow, this is the cost of binding and accommodation." ”

"Uncle, I don't ......"

"Eh, take it, uncle knows your situation, you must read the book, and when you pass the exam, your father and mother will laugh when they know it below." Qi Shan's eyes were red, and he said that the relationship between him and the Qi Gu brothers was very good, but he really didn't expect that he was only in his early thirties, and he would be separated forever.

"Uncle, look at this." Qi Qizhu took out the charcoal wrapped in straw from the jacket he had just taken off, "This is the charcoal we have successfully fired, I think we will sell it in the town tomorrow, if it sells well, it will be enough." ”

"It's charcoal." Qi Shan directly picked up the charcoal, smelled it, and stretched out his hand to rub it, "You made it?" ”

Qishan is unspeakably surprised, after all, the charcoal sold in the county and town is made from a fixed charcoal kiln, and there are many types, and the good ones are sent to the prefecture and county, and they are also sold in the town, but they are all the most basic black charcoal, but the price is also high.

If it is more broken, the price will be lower, but it will cost five cents a catty.

"We knew that this charcoal was made of wood, so we tried to make it in the kitchen, thinking that there is no interest at home now, if it is successful, we can take advantage of this weather to have one more entry, and we have tried many times, but I didn't expect it to succeed." Qi Qizhu said.

"I'm thinking about going to town tomorrow and asking, I don't know how this charcoal is sold."

"The shop is selling, and the broken black charcoal costs five cents a pound, and you have to sell it for eight or nine cents a pound, but that is the shop for the outside, if you sell it directly to others, you can sell it at this price, but if you sell it to the shop, the price will be suppressed." Qi Shan analyzed.

"No wonder I saw that you were also chopping wood today, and it turned out that you were burning charcoal." Chi Lingmiao suddenly realized, "Then tomorrow I will let your lobby brother and them cut for you again, cut more, and you can also make more money to sell." ”

"Uncle, auntie, it's almost February now, and you won't need charcoal if it's warmer, so let's take advantage of this time to do it together, do more, and earn some copper money." Qi Qizhu said, "The method is very simple. ”

"It's that we hope that when you say it to the outside world, Uncle will say that this charcoal is a success for you, and then kindly teach it to your children and nephews, if people know that we made it, now we don't have our father and mother to protect us, and nothing may be able to protect it." Qi Qizhu said vaguely.

Qi Shan understood the meaning of Qi Qizhu's words, it stands to reason that Qi Qizhu is already a child, and his status is not ordinary, but as long as it involves the filial piety of his elders, he still suffers, especially ......

Qi Shan thought of Qi He and Feng Diehua, hey, sure enough, if you marry a daughter-in-law, you have to marry a big belly, and the shallow eyelids only focus on interests, and even family affection is in vain.

Not only is his eyelids shallow, but he also has no foresight, Qi Shan is disappointed in Qi He and Feng Diehua.

"You kid is thoughtful, listen to you." Qi Shan agreed, "But this is what you do, Uncle can't take advantage of you, but he can help you do it together, you take advantage of these days to do more, save some money, you are tired of studying, sometimes you have to buy some good supplements." ”

"These days are not only tired, but also uncomfortable, the work of copying books will be done slowly, and the entanglement of going to the hospital in June, don't worry about it, the uncle will solve it for you, ah." Qi Shan looked at Qi Qizhu and said earnestly.

"Uncle, you did it for Qizhu, Qizhu knows, but to make charcoal, please do it together, Uncle you also have to do it together, Basong also has to take the county test, and then it is the government test, if it is over, you will go to the hospital with me in June to try, and you need a lot of money." Qi Qizhu said sincerely.

"Uncle, you are good to us, we all know that this time we have a rare opportunity, we all earn some together, otherwise we will be unhappy." Qi Qizhu looked serious.

Qi Shan's eyes were full of relief when he saw it, "Okay, good, let's do it together, good boy." ”

Qi Qizhu's sensibility made Qi Shan feel even more uncomfortable, these four children were a lot more stable because of the death of their father, and he felt distressed.

"Dad, mother, the meal is ready, it's time to eat." Ren Xue'er came in with a large pot of sorghum sweet potato rice, and Li Cuijuan behind her took a small basket of pickle tortillas.

Behind them were Qi Yifei and Qi Sansheng, and the two of them were holding a large pot of vegetables in their hands.

Chi Lingmiao went out to get the dishes and chopsticks, and brought Qi Wenshu over.

Ten people and a child squeezed into a table of eight immortals, Chi Lingmiao personally served the meal, filled it to everyone, and also divided a pickle corn tortilla for one person.

There are two pots of vegetables in the center of the table, one is cabbage soup, because a few slices of bacon are added, and the soup is full of oil stars; The other pot is fried shredded radish.

"Eat fast, eat fast." Qi Shan took the lead in moving the chopsticks, and then the people at the table had no time to speak, so they buried their heads in hard work.

Qi Jiuli also joined it, the sorghum sweet potato rice tasted good, the sweet potato itself had a sweet taste, the glutinous was very delicious, and even the sorghum rice was also stained with fragrance.

"Qizhu, Jiuli, you eat meat." Chi Lingmiao used chopsticks to pick out a thin and transparent slice of bacon in the cabbage soup, and sandwiched a slice for Qi Qizhu, Qi Jiuli, Qi Shixiang and Qi Shiyi.

"Uncle Xie." Qi Qizhu thanked the four of them and ate it.

Chi Lingmiao also sandwiched a slice of it for his grandson Qi Wenshu, and the bacon was stewed in the pot until it was soft and rotten, so many oil stars were stewed, and this meat baby was very suitable to eat.
