Chapter 102: Running around town

He thought he had seen it wrong, but when he thought about it carefully, the overlapping eyebrows and eyes understood that they were carved out of a model, and even the experience was amazingly similar.

Generally lived in the capital, there is usually a child around him, and even the age of one older and one young is nearby, how can he be taught not to think much?

"No, it won't be you!" Zheng Rin looked at the woman in the portrait, covered her eyes with her hands and comforted herself: "How could it be you, you have been married, your husband has died of illness, Kunkun was born to you in October when she was pregnant, at this time you are my fiancΓ©e, how can it be a woman who jumped into the river with childishness?" ”

She smiles like a flower, she seems to be angry, and she is gentle like water...... Always with a fresh demeanor, there is no resemblance to the silent woman in the portrait.

Zheng Rin tried her best to find out the evidence that the two had no similarities at all, all of them were purely coincidental, but she didn't spontaneously expound in her mind that before leaving, the woman's earnest advice, she cared about herself, and hoped that she would go home as soon as possible, she was her fiancΓ©e, the woman she was going to be with for the rest of her life, not anyone, only his wife......

In his heart, the man silently, severed the relationship, and did not allow a trace of doubt to separate the lovely woman from the woman in the portrait, so that they would not have a trace of collision.

The portrait of the woman was grasped by a large hand, and the man did not hesitate to make a decision that was the most important thing in his life......

Guo Mianmian, who was almost exposed in Lijia Village, was unaware of the danger that passed by. Seeing that the New Year is coming, I wondered if I should take advantage of the gap to make a small fortune to have a prosperous year.

"I don't think you can write, so you can write at the mercy of you, so you can go to the town with the third child to set up a stall to write Spring Festival couplets, and let a few small ones help sell them, and you can always earn a hundred and eighty wen in one universe."

Guo Lin sent the last batch of flower sauce of the year to Benxinzhai, and saw that some shops in the town had already put Spring Festival couplets for sale, and there were still many people who bought them, so he proposed that Guo Mianmian, who had not yet figured out how to make a good body, write Spring Festival couplets and sell them.

"Selling Spring Festival couplets? Did anyone buy what I wrote from a woman's family? "This is the first year that Guo Mianmian is about to pass after he comes back, I don't know if there is a trend in the Spring Festival couplets I wrote in this small place in Taoyuan Town, I didn't think about this aspect at the beginning, but after listening to the second brother's proposal at this time, I was a little moved.

"Why didn't anyone buy it?" Guo Lin was full of confidence, and tried his best to incite: "Your words are no worse than the third child, the third child used to set up a stall in the town to write Spring Festival couplets, and people passing by rushed to buy them, if you are worried that others will not buy what you wrote, you will write it at home and then sell it, and people don't know that you wrote it." ”

Guo Mianmian thought about it and felt that although selling Spring Festival couplets was just a small business, it wouldn't make much money in the universe, but it was better to have no technical content to mass produce it, and it was something that every family needed was not afraid that it would not be sold, so after thinking about it for a while, he said:

"Then I'll sell Spring Festival couplets, I'll write at home these days, and when my younger brother comes back from vacation, I'll go to town with him, and I'll sell Spring Festival couplets when he writes them."

Guo Lin felt that it was very appropriate to place it like this, so he said: "When the little brother comes back, you will discuss with the little brother!" By the way, the boss and I have been idle these days, and we are about to get moldy, so the next day we will take advantage of the snow to go around the mountains to see if we can catch some pheasants and hares and come back to make a tooth sacrifice. ”

Guo Mianmian frowned, and said disapprovingly: "It is very dangerous on the snowy mountain, and there is no shortage of silver to eat wild meat at home, if you want to eat, I will go to the town to see if I can buy it, don't risk running up the mountain." ”

The big mountain fifteen miles away from the village, there are thousands of pheasants and hares in it, and tigers, wild boars and bears are not uncommon.

Guo Lin smiled: "Why are you the second brother stupidly running to a dangerous place?" Don't worry, besides me and the boss, there are more than a dozen other people in the village, and we will go around the outside of the mountain to taste our fate, and we will not go inside. ”

"No, it's still impossible." Guo Mianmian was still not at ease, and was about to persuade him again when he saw his mother enter, so he said the hope that the second brother and the eldest would enter the mountain, hoping that his mother could persuade the two brothers not to let them take risks.

After hearing this, Mu Shi didn't take it to heart: "Let them go, they will go a few times after the snow in previous years, they have already familiarized themselves with that place, and there is no danger." ”

Seeing that his mother also said so, the second brother looked like he had to go, Guo Mianmian didn't want to stop it, but just instructed: "You and the boss in the mountains should never enter, even if fate is good, you can't meet a fierce beast, just the snow universe is very dangerous, you must not take risks." ”

Guo Lin is not a person who can't listen to words, and his nature is quite stable, he patted his chest after listening to MM's words and said: "You can rest assured, even ten cows will pull me and the boss, and the two of us will not step into the deep mountains for half a step." ”

Guo Mianmian nodded, a little relieved.

Early the next morning, the two Guo brothers went out with dry food and water, as well as a few other easy hunting targets. The brothers reached the head of the village under a few large trees, and together with a dozen young men of their generation, they walked in the direction of the mountains.

This time when they went into the mountains, everyone brought enough dry food for three days. After three days, regardless of whether there is a harvest or not, the harvest will be returned, and the next time it snows, we will try it again.

Group activities like this are called the old customs of Lijia Village, and they have not been interrupted since more than 40 years ago. In the end, it is still poor to make trouble, hoping to catch wild meat for a few dollars, so that the family can have a good year.

If you want to say whether there will be danger, there will naturally be, otherwise the widow of Li would not have died. , There are not many such accidents, and over the years, there have been two or three other cases like Guo Laoshi, who accidentally fell down the mountain and broke his leg or arm.

Although it is unlikely that he knows that he is aware of the danger, Guo Mianmian, who experienced this for the first time, was worried about his two brothers while writing Spring Festival couplets.

It wasn't until two days later that no bad news came back, and this sorrow was dissipated, and soon she was caught by Guo Yu, who couldn't be idle as soon as she got home, and went to the town to set up a stall to sell Spring Festival couplets.

On this day, the snow had stopped for several days, but the sun had not come out, the sky was still cold and tight, and the snow buried in the calf showed no signs of melting. This kind of weather is not suitable for going out, even if it is almost the New Year, not many people will run to the street to buy New Year's goods.

Looking at the scattered pedestrians on the street, Guo Mianmian paused and said to the little brother with red cheeks: "No one will come to buy the cloth, or we will knock on the door from door to door?" ”

Guo Yuzheng felt ashamed that he didn't listen to the persuasion of the eldest sister in the morning, and insisted on pulling the eldest sister out to sell the Spring Festival couplets, and when he heard his sister's suggestion, he felt that it was the most feasible, and hurriedly said: "Eldest sister, you are watching here, I will knock on the door with a few Spring Festival couplets first." ”

"Dry standing in a cold panic, I'll go with you." Guo Mianmian said and began to roll the Spring Festival couplets by hand.

Fortunately, it was expected that there would be no business, and Guo Mianmian, who had written the Spring Festival couplets at home before, only brought ten pairs. After arriving in the town, he saw that there were not many pedestrians, so Guo Yu did not take out the pen and ink, and soon the ten pairs of Spring Festival couplets were rolled up, and the rope for hanging the Spring Festival couplets was also put away.

Brother and sister knocked on the door of the first family with the Spring Festival couplets, it happened that the family had not had time to buy, and saw that the people had been sent to the door in the heavy snow, the handwriting was good, and the meaning of the Spring Festival couplets was good, so they bought a pair of pleasantly.

This is not the first time Guo Yu has sold Spring Festival couplets, but it is the first time that they have been sent to the door like this for people to buy, and they have sold a pair very smoothly, and suddenly have confidence, and take the eldest sister's hand and walk to the second family: "Eldest sister, there are people who live in this area who are not bad for money, they haven't had time to buy Spring Festival couplets yet, maybe we can sell dozens of pairs." ”

Guo Mianmian held the five cents he had just won, and a great sense of success surged in his heart, and this sense of success had nothing to do with the amount of money.

"Okay, it's still early, so we'll run around town."

"Hmm." Guo Yu nodded again and again, and his childish face, which had not yet walked away, filled with the pride and vitality that young people should have.

There are more than 20 days before the Chinese New Year, most of the families in the town have not bought Spring Festival couplets, and now it is a snowy day, and the family is nesting at home to warm up.

Seeing the Guo family sisters and brothers who came to sell Spring Festival couplets, the owner was surprised and at the same time, like the first family, Yiyue paid money to buy it.

The ten pairs of Spring Festival couplets brought by Guo Mianmian were quickly sold out, and Guo Yu had to take out pen and ink, find a sheltered corner, spend two moments, and write down twenty pairs in one go.

By the time the twenty pairs of Spring Festival couplets were sold, only two pairs were left, and it was already noon. The brother and sister ran for a morning, hungry early, and insisted on the last bit of strength, planning to find a small restaurant to fill their stomachs after selling the last two pairs, and then write the remaining twenty pairs of red paper in the next day, and then go home after selling them.

"Eldest sister, a pair of Spring Festival couplets is five cents, remove the red paper and ink, we can net three cents for a pair, we sold thirty pairs this morning, and earned ninety cents, which is more than I earned in a day in previous years!" After selling the last two pairs of Spring Festival couplets, Guo Yu calculated the accounts, and unexpectedly realized that he had earned so much, and temporarily laughed happily.

The young man smiled, and he noticed two charming wine vortices on his face, and Guo Mianmian's index finger moved, and he couldn't help poking and poking: "We will continue to write and continue to sell next day, if the sky is not good the next day, we can earn as much as today!" ”

The young man's handsome face was poked red by his sister's fingers, which was shy. He didn't want to dodge it but couldn't dodge, and simply gave up the struggle: "Let's write more when we go home today, and we can sell more when the weather is better in the future." ”

"Okay, go buy some ink sticks before you come back, I'm running out of money at home." Guo Mianmian dug deep in the soft soil, touched his brother's face again, and felt that it felt very good.

Guo Yu's face turned even redder, and he began to worry about the prospective brother-in-law he had never met: "Well, it's time to buy it, and I only have half a small ink strip left." ”
