Chapter 178: Something happened to the Zhang family
"Is the village chief's injuries serious?" The second sister suddenly asked worriedly.
"It's very serious, Neifu is not lightly injured, both legs are broken, a lot of money has been spent, and now he is still lying in bed sick?" Zhang Shilang held back his tears and said.
"Don't worry, uncle's body will get better sooner or later, if your family has no money, tell me, I told my grandmother that you can borrow some money to your family." The second sister comforted Zhang Shilang and said.
.......。
It's almost noon, the sun is already shining, and there aren't many pedestrians passing by on a few streets.
Fortunately, the place where the Huang family set up their stall is back to the shade and against the river, and it is cool when there is an occasional gust of wind.
Before, Huang Yiyun and his second sister, sixth sister and seventh brother came early, and they also sold dozens of lanterns sporadically, but after Huang Liu's and their families came, they sold less and less.
The Huang family had already had an experience selling lotus lanterns before, and knew that the best time to sell lanterns was in the afternoon or evening, so they were not in a hurry.
Huang Congjiang brought a few benches from home.
The Huang family sat on the top, and Huang Li took out the steamed bread cake made this morning, and some pickles came out and placed them on the bench, so that everyone could eat first and cushion their stomachs.
"Third sister, third sister, what's wrong with you." After the third sister came back, Huang Yiyun shouted a few times, and after seeing that the third sister was a little distracted, he waved his hand a few times in front of the third sister's eyes.
"Ahh Eldest sister, where did you go just now, and the second sister went to look for you, but she couldn't find it? The second sister came back to her senses and asked.
"It's okay, just now the eldest sister seemed to see an acquaintance, and chased after it, and wanted to see it clearly, but the person didn't catch up, and I walked a little far, and the third sister didn't find me!" Huang Yiyun casually found a reason.
After the second sister heard Huang Yiyun's words, she thought that her eldest sister had also seen the fact that the Zhang family had come to the county to sell lotus flowers, and the second sister's lips were open, and she wanted to say something, but she didn't say anything.
"What's the matter, do you have anything to say to the eldest sister?" After Huang Yiyun saw the third sister like this, he asked slightly in his heart.
"Eldest sister, now I know why the village chief's family will sell Ai Qingtuan in Dao County with our family before." The second sister said quietly.
"Is there something wrong with the Zhang family? You just met the Zhang family, or their family is in urgent need of money. After Huang Yiyun looked at the second sister, he asked in his heart.
"When the second sister went to look for the eldest sister just now, on another street, I saw a few members of the Zhang family, setting up a stall to sell lanterns, all of which were exactly the same as the ones we sold last year.
When the village chief went to other people's houses to help build a house last month, he accidentally fell and suffered a lot of injuries, and when he was working, he said that this work was a little dangerous, and he was injured, and he was not responsible.
It's just that I didn't expect that just a few days after I did it, Village Chief Zhang had an accident, because I was worried that there would be a disaster this year, so Village Chief Zhang used more than half of his money to buy food and save it, and the remaining money was not enough for my family to treat Village Chief Zhang, so there was no way. The second sister said.
"Second sister, are you worried about the Zhang family or angry that their family is selling Ai Qingtuan and lanterns with our family." When Huang Yiyun saw the second sister like this, he knew that the second sister had fallen into a dead end.
"It's both! That is, the things made by the Zhang family are all taught by our family, how can their family rob our family's business? This is in my heart! There is always a little bit of annoyance, a feeling of grievance. ”
"Second sister, have you thought about it, the other stall vendors we don't know, the lanterns they sell, are also the same last year, our family sells exactly the same, do you have any anger and grievances.
It stands to reason that people steal to learn from us to weave exactly the same lanterns to sell, you should be even more angry and unhappy in your heart, and they have also robbed our business!
Why are you just angry at the behavior of the Zhang family, and don't hate the other hawkers for following the trend of the same lanterns sold by our family? When we taught them to make Ai Qingtuan and weave lanterns, Grandma and I had already prepared for this.
What's more, the Zhang family is still close to our family, why can others steal the school and sell the same lanterns as our family in the county, but not the Zhang family?
Besides, the Zhang family is not a last resort, their family needs money, otherwise, with his family's temperament, he would not have done such a thing.
Second sister, sometimes, things can't be seen on the surface, you can change the position, stand on other people and think about this matter, when you have this kind of awareness, you will feel that many things have become simpler, and there are not so many troubles. Huang Yiyun asked the second sister with a smile.
After the second sister heard Huang Yiyun's words, her eyes showed a look of thought.
Huang Yiyun didn't bother the second sister either, asking her to think clearly.
"The eldest sister and the second sister eat something and cushion their stomachs, what are you two sisters talking about, where have you been muttering for a long time." Huang Liu saw that the eldest sister and the second sister were whispering on the side for a while, and after coming over for lunch, Huang Liu hurriedly greeted the two sisters.
"Okay, mother, let's come here."
"What do you say? Say so long. Huang Liu asked after seeing the two eldest sisters coming.
"Mother, I whispered to my eldest sister, and I didn't tell my mother about the little sister." The second sister put her arm around the eldest sister and said mysteriously to Huang Liu with a smile.
"Okay, don't talk about it, you have also grown up, and you have a little secret of the girl's family." Huang Liu saw that their sisters had such a good relationship, and Huang Liu replied with a smile.
Huang Jiang's family on the side also smiled, handing chopsticks and steamed buns to the two Huang Yiyun sisters.
After lunch, this is the hottest time of the day, and there are few pedestrians on the streets except for the vendors.
Summer is the time to be sleepy.
A few small ones, after eating, their heads are little by little, and they want to sleep.
Fortunately, Huang Congjiang brought several benches.
Some are used to place lanterns, and some are used for the Huang family to sit on.
Huang Congjiang put the lanterns placed on the bench on the ground, and then closed the two benches, which was enough for a small sleep.
Huang Li and Huang Jiang were still afraid that a few of them would be hot when they slept, so they took the bamboo fan made by Huang Conghe and fanned them next to their sleep.
"Eldest sister, second sister, third sister, you come to sit here with your father, lean on Mimi's eyes, your father will fan you, and it won't be so hot when you fall asleep." Huang Congjiang waved to the eldest sister.
"Dad, go to sleep! The eldest sister is not sleepy, and the daughter will fan you. Huang Yiyun snatched the fan from Huang Congjiang's hand and said.
"Don't fight with Dad, Dad's not sleepy, you just sleep." Where is Huang Congjiang willing to do this, he won't give way.
"Dad, you have to bear your daughter's filial piety, if your daughter gets married in the future, if you want to honor your father, I'm afraid it will be difficult." Huang Yiyun saw the selfless dedication of Huang Liu and Huang Jiang's to their children, even if it was just a small sleeping fan, it also made Huang Yiyun feel that the Huang family cared for and loved their children.
