Chapter 11, Human Spirit
On the second day, Jin Baozhu still got up early, and made two large pots of crayfish last night, and she was going to the town to catch up with the market today and sell crayfish.
When it comes to selling things, the men of the Jin family all consciously retreat, and finally decided that the An family, the Lin family, and Jin Baozhu will go to the charge, and the others will be in charge at home.
Shili Village is not the richest village in Qingshui Town, but it is not so rich, and most people choose to walk on foot in order to save a few pennies and eat a bowl of green vegetable noodles.
More than 20 miles, it only takes more than half an hour to walk, and the foot can be faster.
Jin Baozhu wanted to sell crayfish, so he simply went to rent the ox cart of the old man Wu in the village.
Old man Wu is a widower, he eats alone, and the whole family is not hungry. Usually plant a little land, and when it comes to market days, I run back and forth to run ox carts, earning some money for wine.
As the name suggests, it is impossible for her to drive the ox cart, but the Lin family has a lot of experience in driving the ox cart, after all, she often accompanies Jin Lao Er to the town to buy and sell herbs, so this ox cart is easy to use in her hands, and it is stable.
Even Jin Baozhu didn't expect that his second aunt, who looked soft and weak, was actually a good hand at driving ox carts, and originally thought that he had to bring a man with him! Now that the Lin family is here, the difficulties are solved.
The three of them talked and laughed and walked all the way to the entrance of the village, when suddenly the cow stopped and couldn't go.
Before the three of them could say anything, a pungent voice came, "Who should I be?" It turned out to be the daughter-in-law and granddaughter of the village chief's family! ”
Wang Dahua of the Li Zheng family, who stopped the ox cart, walked over with a pair of dry firewood sticks here and there, "The village chief's family can't abuse their power and occupy the only ox cart in the village!" I don't know, I think the village chief's daughter-in-law wears the same pants as Old Man Wu! Even the ox cart is your family's ...... my family."
"Hahaha...... Oh, yes! The village chief is doing things for our village names, if Old Man Jin knew that the two daughters-in-law were smearing their old Jin family outside, I don't know if he would be angry on the spot! "Wang Dahua's eldest daughter-in-law, Cui, has a virtue with her mother-in-law, and her mouth is more stinky than a pit.
There were also a few women next to Wang Dahua who usually followed Wang Dahua, all of whom were muttering, covering their mouths and snickering.
An and Lin didn't expect Wang Dahua, as an elder, to slander himself in such a vicious way, and both of them were angry with their chests rising and falling violently, especially Lin's tears, which flowed out directly, and soon wet their clothes.
Although An is not that brave and ruthless, he also feels that no one is allowed to insult himself and his family inexplicably.
"My sister-in-law's house has run out of salt, right? If it is gone, don't come out, lest it be bad to smoke people to death, and you must know that if others die because of you for no reason, you will be convicted, and you will be exiled at the least, or you will be killed by cutting off your head with a knife. ”
"Puff~ Hahahaha......" Jin Baozhu didn't expect that she, a mother who looks quiet and chaste, would have such a side, she is simply a seed player who fights mouths! Well, you can develop it well in the future, and maybe there are any potential skills to unlock!
Cui's is stupid, and his brain can't turn around, but when he heard that he was going to cut off his head with a knife, he leaned back in fright, and muttered unwillingly, "Who said that I don't have salt at home, and there is still half a jar in the kitchen!" ”
The few people standing behind the two of them couldn't help but laugh when they heard Cui's words.
Wang Dahua said that he had eaten more than Cui's for decades, and his brain turned around, and he listened to the ridicule of these people, and then looked at the stupidity of his daughter-in-law behind him, and scolded angrily, "An Shuning, you let go of your mother's dog stinky fart, why is your mouth so vicious at a young age?" My daughter-in-law doesn't brush her teeth, what's the matter with you, no wonder your father and mother died early! I guess it's because of you, the lost star, the yin and the immoral thing. ”
Now Wang Dahua stabbed the hornet's nest, when An's mother gave birth to her, she died in childbirth, An Xiucai guarded An's mother for a lifetime, worked hard to pull An's big with a handful of and urine, and taught his daughter to read and write, his daughter was older, his body was hollowed out, the house was surrounded by four walls, and even An Xiucai had no money to catch medicine, An proposed to sell himself to a big family in the town as a maid, but An Xiucai would rather die than his daughter as a slave and a maid. and went west.
Over the years, the death of his father and mother has always been an unspeakable pain in An's heart. Now that Wang Dahua has torn his flesh alive, it is naturally painful to live rather than die.
Jin Baozhu didn't know the details, but when she saw An's hurt eyes and trembling body, she knew that something was wrong.
The sky was already dawning, and more and more people had gathered at the entrance of the village, Jin Baozhu knew that Wang Dahua was a difficult person, and the three of them were all juniors, so they didn't do too much in public, so they gave Lin a look and motioned her to leave quickly.
"Let's go! Second aunt, we still have something to do! It is the chicken that gets people up, and it is the dog that blocks the way, we are quality people, and it is naturally not good to be a general knowledge of being a chicken and a dog! ”
When Wang Dahua heard this, she crossed her hands on her waist, "You little rabbit loses money, who are you talking about?" ”
Jin Baozhu didn't answer, just walked past a few people calmly, and then looked back at Wang Dahua lightly.
Wang Dahua was stunned by Jin Baozhu, and muttered, "This dead girl looks so gloomy." ”
Along the way, several people had their own concerns, and none of them spoke.
Jin Baozhu didn't know how to comfort her mother, just quietly leaned on An's arms, gently caressed her back with one hand, thinking about going home and telling her father, let his favorite wife Crazy Demon Jin Boss go out in person.
If you go out in person, you will be successful when you see it!
Lin knows a little bit about this sister-in-law, but she is stupid and can't speak, so she is afraid of saying the wrong thing, so she simply buries her head in the car, looking forward to arriving in the town as soon as possible, there are many people, and the sister-in-law's mood should be better.
When I arrived in the town, just in time for dinner, the smell of food wafted through the streets and alleys.
This is the first time I have come to this world to come to the town, and I am very excited, looking left and right, and my little head is constantly turning.
Jin Baozhu inquired about the situation in the town, she originally wanted to go to the East Market to sell crayfish, but the East Market is a street market in a rich area, and a stall costs one or two silver, Jin Baozhu is not worried about not being able to make money, but An and Lin are both nervous to death, and in the end the minority obeys the majority, and a few people paid 20 copper plates, so they found a stall in the West Market and set it up.
The most important thing in doing a catering business is cleanliness and hygiene, so Jin Baozhu and his wife built a simple table with two wooden boards, and then took out a large piece of white cotton linen prepared in advance and spread it on it, and then put two large pots of crayfish on it.
Based on the experience of eating from modern food stalls and the first appearance of crayfish, Jin Baozhu took out a small white porcelain bowl from his pocket, peeled a bowl of shrimp meat, and took out a small bamboo skewer.
Holding a bowl in his left hand and a bamboo skewer in his right hand, "Come on!" Come on! Take a look, take a look! Freshly baked food! Spicy crayfish, braised lobster tail with green onions, to ensure that all uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts want to eat it a second time after eating it once. Don't miss it when you pass by, spicy crayfish, free to try, don't ......pay if it's not delicious."
An and Lin were simply dumbfounded, decent, and the two women who had lived carefully for most of their lives, when did they see this kind of formation, and they were petrified on the spot.
It wasn't until the golden jewel sounded crisply in their ears that the two of them came back to their senses, "Mother, second aunt, what are you two doing?" Hurry up and load crayfish for this uncle! Spicy, twenty of them. ”
Jin Baozhu was amused in her heart, these two people must have been frightened by her mysterious operation just now.
"Uncle, let me tell you, when you turn around, you beat him with two or two small wines, with this spicy crayfish, it's just amazing, I guarantee that you are happy like a fairy!" Jin Baozhu smelled the smell of wine on this uncle's body, and knew that he must be a greedy cup, so he did not hesitate to follow the hair.
As soon as the man heard that he could drink, he boldly let twenty of them come, but An's was very happy.
Jin Baozhu's eyes rolled, "Uncle is the first guest today, I am in charge, and I will give you five more to ensure that you eat fragrantly." ”
As he spoke, he patted his small chest and winked at An's, "Mother, send five uncles, do you think it's okay?" ”
An Shi was stunned for a moment, and smirked, "Okay, okay, I'll pretend." ”
The man looked at the fat doll in front of him, which was not as tall as his legs, with two small buds tied on his head, tied with red silk on them, his little face became red because of greeting guests, and his small mouth kept talking, his heart softened, and he left with the things he bought.
Whether it is buying crayfish, or watching too many people in the excitement, the small stalls are surrounded by water, Jin Baozhu is afraid of making mistakes in the busy, and is afraid of affecting the passage, causing unnecessary trouble, just shouting next to him, "Father, old folks, brothers and sisters, I can understand the mood of everyone who wants to eat crayfish, but please also understand us and the people around the business, come and come, everyone consciously queues up to buy, yes, that's it, this aunt is so beautiful, the headband is good, yes, yes, two rows, two rows, aunt, your skin is so good, It's a blessed ...... at first glance."
Thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, they have nothing to do, and they are in a good mood, but Jin Baozhu doesn't mind patting the sycophants.
In the whole "crayfish sales meeting", the gold treasure bead can be described as exquisite, welcoming everywhere, and Xiaozui has never stopped. During the period, he occasionally made a cameo appearance as a security guard to maintain order on the scene.
When the crayfish were sold out, what Jin Baozhu didn't know was that on this day, these people in the West Market not only remembered a kind of food called crayfish, but also remembered a human spirit named Jin Baozhu.
