As soon as these words came out, it was finalized to cooperate with Chungui, and Chungui was still neither humble nor arrogant, she put down the pen and bowed to the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper Qi, I still have a difficult thing here."

The shopkeeper Qi instructed the man to put the painting away, and his eyes were already very cordial when he saw the return of spring: "You say." ”

Chungui touched Zhiping's head and said slowly: "You also know that the drought just passed a while ago, and now the family is poor, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of selling paintings." ”

Shopkeeper Qi nodded: "This drought period is long, and there are indeed several villages that have been seriously affected underneath. ”

Chungui continued: "Due to the drought, there are only a few pieces of paper left at home for my two younger brothers to practice calligraphy. ”

"See if I can charge five pennies less per painting, this dye is ......."

Halfway through speaking, the shopkeeper Qi stopped: "No, I have to pay another amount of silver for the paint, and I will provide pen, ink, paper, inkstone and pigment here, and the silver will still be the same, and I will have to raise the price for you in the future." ”

Shopkeeper Qi was obviously very confident in her handwriting, and when he said this, Chun Gui didn't speak anymore.

The shopkeeper Qi thought of something and added: "The painter's copy is somewhat different from the original, if there is a problem, I hope that the more lady will give advice." ”

Chungui nodded: "I live in the Liu family at the entrance of Xiaoliangshan Village, and you can send someone to call me if you have something." ”

After a while, the guy took a basket of materials for her, and seeing that there was obviously too much rice paper, Chun Gui hurriedly looked up.

Shopkeeper Qi waved his hand and glanced at Qi You, who was standing behind Chungui, and saw that his eyes were calm from beginning to end, and he had his own hills and valleys in his heart, so he said: "If you have more, you can use it for your two younger brothers, the young man is vigorous, and he will be able to live in the future." ”

After speaking, he took out another 300 texts: "A total of eight paintings, four poems with four flowers, can you see if there is anything wrong?" ”

Chun Gui glanced at it and thanked the shopkeeper Qi and said goodbye: "Xie Qi shopkeeper is kind." ”

If it is equipped with a good fan bone, the fan pendant, the marketing profit is doubled, these Qi shopkeepers themselves understand, the pricing of these twenty-five is not high, but counting the money of the poems, and folding these pen, ink, paper and inkstone can also be counted. What's more, this poem can also make Qi You and Zhixing earn a fortune.

Seeing that she was satisfied, the shopkeeper Qi also laughed in his heart: "So I'll wait for you!" ”

Zhiping jumped out of the door, stepped out of the door and immediately raised his face to look at Chungui: "Sister-in-law, you are so amazing!" ”

Half a month ago, Chungui painted a red panda that has been hidden by him, which shows how much he likes it, and today I saw four paintings in a row, which can be imagined how shocking it is.

Chungui carried a basket of materials, and the other hand held Zhiping, and just a few steps away, the basket in his hand was picked up by Qi You. Chungui smiled and rubbed the little cub's face: "Does Zhiping want to eat meat?" ”

Zhiping was confused: "Is there chicken at home?" He was referring to another chicken given by the two Chen Shi brothers, which was drying on the beams of the house.

Chungui smiled: "It's not chicken, it's pork, Zhiping's favorite roast meat!" ”

She thought that the little cub would immediately jump and nod her head, but she didn't expect the whole person to be stunned.

Chungui bent down and patted his face: "What's wrong?" Happy silly? ”

Zhiping immediately came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva, and shook his head violently: "No...... Don't eat, don't eat roast meat! ”

Chungui smiled on his face: "It's roast meat." ”

The little cub simply shook her head directly, she raised her eyes and glanced at Qi You suspiciously, Qi You shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Chungui thought thoughtfully, thinking of the child's silence along the way today, she tentatively said: "Zhiping forgot, last year my father and mother took you and your brother and sister to the street, my brother likes to eat meat buns, my sister likes wontons, you ate a bite of the roast pork bun in your father's hand, and came back and thought about it for several days." ”

Zhiping's eyes were clear, and he couldn't remember it last night, but as soon as his sister-in-law said it, he immediately had a picture. He swallowed his saliva again, but when he thought of his brother's instructions this morning, he hurriedly shook his head again.

"I don't eat it, Zhiping doesn't like to eat it."

The little cub twisted his clothes with his two hands, his face tangled.

Chungui sighed, the little thing deliberately helped her save money, the big one refused to take the ten cents, and the small one didn't eat meat, so she estimated that she was ventilated early in the morning and said okay.

She squatted in front of the child, her face embarrassed: "But...... My sister-in-law wants to eat it. She raised her eyes again and pulled Qi You: "Your brother Qi You also wants to eat." ”

Zhiping's face was relieved when he heard this: "That sister-in-law and Brother Qi You eat." ”

Chun Gui got up and glanced at Qi You, and he estimated that he understood.

Wait a look at Zhixing, if the ten cents in his hand haven't moved, it means that the brothers have already said that they will deliberately help her save money this time.

The three of them walked towards Liu's stall when they came, and sure enough, they saw the two brothers and sisters Zhixing Zhimin standing in front of the stall from afar, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly beckoned.

Chun Gui said hello to the Liu family first, and there were still most of the mushrooms in the basket, which were not selling well.

When I asked, the price of the Liu family was low, and I felt that it was a loss, and the price was high, and the people who came and went here were ordinary people, so it was better to buy a pound of meat with some money. After coming and going, this basket of mushrooms was delayed.

Liu sprinkled some water into the basket again, and said, "Spring return, my cousin estimates that I will have to stay for a while, if you are well, lead the child to go first." ”

Chungui waved his hand: "Cousin, you are busy, I still have to buy something, let's go together at noon." ”

With these hundreds of dollars, the lack of money in the family has to be made up.

Seeing that the two finished chatting, Zhixing immediately took out ten yuan and said, "Sister-in-law, I went shopping with Zhimin, and I don't have anything I want to buy!" He deliberately looked at Zhiping again, and when he saw that he was empty-handed, he looked relieved.

Chungui looked helpless, these children don't know whether to praise or scold.

She took back the ten cents: "Let's go, let's go shopping!" ”

The two children were stunned, and Zhixing touched his head: "What street are you shopping?" ”

Chungui sighed: "Of course you go to the street to buy vegetables, ancestor." ”

The two little ancestors were still confused, and looked at the basket full of things in Qi You's hand, didn't know what it was, didn't the sister-in-law finish buying it yet? You can't buy that much for a penny......

This area is a street vendor who buys vegetables, and picks a few seasonal vegetables near the spring return, and can only see one or two common vegetables in modern times, so she had to buy a little more of each, winter melon, cucumber are easy to store, buy more can also be made into sour winter melon, pickled cucumber, and when there is no vegetable to eat in winter, you can also eat a few bites. I picked two small winter melons, five cucumbers, and a handful of green leafy vegetables. I couldn't get it in my hand, so I spent a penny and bought a basket from the stall owner.

Vegetables are cheap, plus the basket costs fifteen yuan.

Zhixing lifted the vegetable basket, frowned and chattered: "I knew that I should bring a basket when I came out, and if I don't have a basket, I can carry a basket, and I spent a penny in vain." ”

Chungui looked funny: "Okay, don't read it, it's just a penny." ”

How do you know that this kid looks like a little rich man with a slamming face, and his eyes are resolute: "Next time Zhimin, you remind me, we have to prepare a big basket, I remember that my father made one before, and I will find it out when I get home." ”

Chun Gui is indescribable, she knew that she should come out early to make money, and she would not force a scholar into a small door.

Walking through the vegetable stall is the meat stall, the meat stall has only opened one, the spring return is late, and the pork belly is almost sold.

Zhixing saw his sister-in-law walking towards the meat stall, and he was so anxious that he was like something, and now that he saw the meat, he was thinking about what to cook, and he didn't see Zhixing's gesture at all.

The owner of the meat stall looked arrogant: "Big sister, you have to hurry, now the good meat is sold out!" ”

Chungui smiled and pointed to two things: "Big brother, weigh this piece of fat and that rib, and I want these bones too." ”

After speaking, he touched Zhiping's head: "Today's meat is sold out, and my sister-in-law will make you roast pork ribs to eat." ”

"Sister, the fat is boiled in oil, and the ribs are still a little meaty, and the people I bought here also have them, and the bones are not easy to gnaw." He said that, but he also weighed her with a knife in his hand.

"The fat is counted as 121 catties for you, here are 2 catties and 24 catties, the ribs are cheaper for 6 catties a catty, there are 9 catties, I will sell half of these bones and send them to you for 5 catties, this is a total of 83 cents, and the odd is wiped for you, which is counted as 80 cents."

Chungui also did the math in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Then thank you, big brother!" This bone is just the right soup for my younger siblings. "These bones are five pounds to say the least.

The stall owner said in his heart that the blood in the cracks of the bones is difficult to clean, and where can the soup be boiled out of a pot of fishy gas. Glancing at the children of all sizes following behind her, she must have had a hard time, so she raised the knife again.

"I'll help you cut this rib into pieces, and the child will be able to gnaw on it when the time comes."

Chungui thanked him and wanted to take out the money, but he didn't want the corners of his clothes to be dragged twice.

When she looked back, Zhixing looked anxious, and whispered to her, "Sister-in-law! Eighty wen, we only have one penny! It just cost fifteen yuan, and we only have five yuan to buy meat! ”

Chungui looked funny, glanced at Zhimin, and sure enough, the little girl was also anxious: "Sister-in-law, let's just eat vegetables." ”

Chungui smiled, sighed, and grabbed Zhimin's shoulder: "Sister-in-law just made money, be good, I'll talk about it when I get home." ”

The two were stunned, didn't they just go to the street? How can you make money so quickly?

Zhixing looked at Qi You, and when he saw him nodding, his face relaxed for a while, but his heart was still lifted, and he watched intently as Chungui counted out eighty yuan from the small cloth bag. The basket is now full.

Qi You carried the heavy basket, happy and melancholy.

When he came back to his senses, he was already at a drugstore. He was busy following up, and Chun Gui had already picked up a piece of ginger and was talking to the shopkeeper.

Zhixing hurriedly put down the basket, pulled Qi You and said curiously: "Sister-in-law earned money today?" ”

Although there are not many people in the pharmacy, Qi You also felt that he couldn't say much about this business, so he only nodded: "I'll talk about it when I get home." ”

It's hard for both of them to ask again, but this appetite is enough.

Chungui had already weighed five or six pieces of ginger, and some medicinal herbs such as fennel and star anise had also been bought. These things are ingredients in modern times, but here they are medicinal materials, and the price always doubles, and it costs twenty-eight wen to buy them alone.

Zhixing stared intently at Chungui and handed over more than 20 yuan, at this time there was already a lot of reverence in his eyes, so many things were not a small amount to buy, and his sister-in-law was really powerful, and she earned money in just a while!

After buying all the things, Chun Gui just turned around and wanted to leave and turned back: "Shopkeeper, do you know that there are people here who collect mushrooms?" ”
