Chapter 30: Set sail
In the end, the Wang family couldn't resist Li Chenlan and bought the wire.
There are hundreds of winding lines in a large bundle, and there are more than 20 colors of red, orange, red, green, blue, indigo, and purple of various shades. It looks colorful and eye-catching, and several of the colors are the invention of Feng Hongfei, the lord of the Relic Pearl County! It cost Wang more than 20 yuan.
Li Chenlan was already numb.
is also a traverser, being turned into scum or something in seconds, just get used to it.
There are too many things to buy this time, and the food alone is dozens of catties. There were also a bunch of pots and pans, plus a few pieces of fabric. Guangwang and Li Chenbai couldn't take it at all. Li Chenlan's health is not yet complete, so she can only take some light money.
Li Chenxing was young, holding a fish basket filled with fat, and she couldn't take anything else.
Wang's distress endured and hired an ox cart.
At Li Chenbai's suggestion, he deliberately chose a route with fewer people at the end of the village.
But along the way, it is inevitable to encounter several waves of people. Seeing that the Li family's second room, which was poor and white after the separation, actually hired an ox cart to buy so many things home, or was curious or ill-intentioned, they came forward to ask.
Wang knew that he would not be able to deal with it, so he just hurried away.
was asked anxiously, so he raised his head and smiled embarrassedly, "It's all our baby's heart, seeing that the situation at home is not good, I go to the sea early in the morning." I was lucky enough to catch a rich fish and sold it for a few hundred dollars. Isn't there a lack of everything at home, and there is nothing left after buying food. ”
This set of rhetoric was naturally set up by Li Chenbai in advance.
In fact, the money from selling fish this time is more than 700 yuan.
The few people who were purely onlookers satisfied their curiosity, and they dispersed with envy and jealousy. The rest of the ill-intentioned ones were a little tentative in their words, "I said Shi Damn, what kind of fish did you catch at home, and it was sold for hundreds of dollars?" ”
"It's nothing, it's just an eel, and it looks a little new."
"I've heard that your family has been making a lot of good things lately, no wonder the days are getting better. Stone damn, our neighbors, you know the situation of our family, they can't open the pot.
Your family eats meat, so let's drink some soup too?
So what kind of fish catch, how about making two for us? It's a big deal, I'll pay you, a three-...... Ah no, what do you think of the two pennies? ”
This chubby, dark-faced aunt with her hair tied up with a coarse cloth rope. What you say in your mouth will naturally not refer to simple gadgets such as sand chops and bamboo clips. A simple gadget like that can be made with just two glances.
It may not be as easy to use as the second room of the Li family, but the function is still not affected.
Thinking about it with her toes, she knows that she won't be willing to spend three, ah no, it's two pennies to ask someone to do it. And the fish basket is only used to hold things, and it can't catch fish. It seems that Li Chensong should have taken Li Chenhe and the stone to collect the fish cage in the morning, and someone found it on the way back.
The fat black aunt thought that the eel they sold was caught in the fish cage.
It takes most of the day to weave a fish cage, and that's not counting the time spent splitting and cutting bamboo.
What a big face is she, let them help make one for two pennies?
Li Chenlan's face turned black and she was about to step forward.
Li Chenxing raised her eyebrows and said, "Aunt Chunlai, our family has been very busy recently, and we don't have the time to help others make things. If you really want it, those little things in our house will be made by the craftsmen in the town, so you can ask the craftsmen in the town to weave them. ”
"What does the little girl's family know, I also want to earn some copper plates for your family, so as to subsidize the family."
Aunt Chunlai squeezed Li Chenxing away, came to Wang's side and said, "Damn the stone, you can't listen to this little girl." Your family has just split up, and it is a time when you are short of money, so what's wrong with being able to earn two more copper plates?
Of course, I know that the craftsmen in the town can make up everything, and it's not all for you. ”
Hehe, the craftsmanship of the town's craftsmen is good, but the fish cage may not be this thing.
Because before the fourth sister didn't describe it, he had never heard of such a thing, how to make up something he hadn't seen? And even if he really knows how to weave, the mature craftsman in the town wants to weave a fish cage of this size, and he doesn't even think about it without twenty yuan.
Li Chenbai stepped forward with a cold face, "Aunt Chunhua, we understand your kindness." ”
"But I've been really busy lately, and I don't have time to help you make up things, so you still keep your two pennies, please be smart!"
With that, he motioned to the ox-cart driver to hurry forward.
Aunt Chunhua was fat and couldn't run fast, so she was soon dropped by the ox cart and ate a mouthful of ashes. suddenly darkened his face, and he snorted, "What are you, don't you just make up something?" I see how proud you can go. ”
Then he rolled his eyes and went towards the Li family's big house.
"Mother, Aunt Chunhua is that kind of person, you shouldn't talk to her more, it seems to have a good relationship with our family."
Li Chenxing said indignantly, "Before our family caught a fish, when did she take care of us?" It's not like I want to know the secret of our family's fishing. ”
"Mother knows."
Wang was a little helpless, in fact, she didn't know that Aunt Chunhua had a bad temperament?
It's just that I've been used to going against the grain since I was a child, and I don't know how to refuse. The situation at home has finally improved, and it is for the sake of these children that she has to change a little. Otherwise, every time the children are asked to go up to do something, she, a mother, hides behind.
Then she's a mother, and she's too much of a failure.
Li Chenbai's eyes flashed.
In the past, there were a lot of things in the family, and Wang's mother has always been cowardly and easy to bully, and she has never seen any changes in her.
Why did you suddenly have an epiphany today?
Turning his head to look at Li Chenlan, who was sitting on the ox cart, dangling his two feet, and staring at the clouds in the sky with a comfortable expression. Probably the change began on the day this "fourth sister" came to the second room of the Li family.
She unconsciously subtly made Wang have a sense of responsibility as a mother.
also let him, the elder brother, learn to set his sights on the poor little family. Try to treat this small home as a small boat in the wind and rain, and willingly take it out to sea to expand a new world.
And her "weapon" is nothing more than a heart that loves her family.
is greedy, as if the second room of the Li family, an ordinary fisherman's house, is a touch of warmth that she has longed for all her life, and she is unwilling to let go when she catches it.
Li Chenbai felt as if he had also been bewitched.
In the past, it felt average, and there was nothing to miss about the second room of the Li family. Because of this new "fourth sister", it has become precious. It even made him willing to give up the attitude of life that he had nothing to pursue before, and became positive, optimistic and full of fighting spirit.
"Big brother and second sister still have stones, we're back!"
As soon as Li Chenlan arrived home, she jumped out of the ox cart, held the yarn in her hand and a brand new needlework basket, and went to Li Chenhe, "Second sister, take a look, I brought something good back." ”
"Fourth sister, don't worry, drink saliva and talk slowly."
Li Chenhe was gentle and gentle, and handed over a scoop of boiling water that had cooled. There are still a few green bamboo leaves floating in it......
