The rain continued to fall all night until dawn the next day. In the morning, when I opened the door, I was greeted by a fresh breath wrapped in coolness.

Song Jiu looked back and saw that Wange was still sleeping, so he didn't wake her up, and quietly took the door to the stove room to cook breakfast.

When the gruel in the pot is almost boiled, this is the reason why people get up.

Wange still didn't wake up, and she was nagged by Song Yu for a long time last night before she fell asleep. I got up from the bed in a daze and cleaned myself up, and I didn't come to my senses until I finished eating.

"Let's take Uncle Ma's ox cart to the town today." Although Song Jiu's feet were lame, his movements were not slow at all, and he packed up his things and put them in a basket in three or two clicks, and then closed the door and went to the entrance of the village with the evening song.

When I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw Uncle Ma and his ox cart waiting for customers under the tree.

Every morning, Uncle Ma would wait at the entrance of the village with an ox cart on time, and if someone wanted to go to the town but didn't want to walk, he would charge a few pennies to carry someone there.

"Uncle Ma, don't you want to go to town."

"Let's go, why don't you go." Uncle Ma jumped off the board car in a hurry, don't look at him in his fifties, but his body is so tough: "The old rule, one person has three cents, and the two of you have six cents." ”

Sanwen is not very expensive for a trip. It's just that some people are frugal and feel that it won't take long to walk, and there is no need to spend that three cents. But some people don't want to, and there are always people who do. Uncle Ma squatted here every day, and when it was good, he could run two or three times to earn more than ten or twenty yuan, and when it was bad, no one would sit in the morning. But he didn't care, he waited here every day when the time came.

Song Yu happily scooped up six cents and handed it to him, and pulled the evening song to sit on the board car.

Uncle Ma took the money and shouted a few times, and there was no one who wanted to take the ox cart to the town, so hurry up, there would be no such shop after this village.

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and many people in the village are going to the town. Hearing Uncle Ma's shouting, two people hesitated and gave Sanwen to get on the board together.

Seeing that there were four people, Uncle Ma stopped shouting, and accepted the money with a smile, climbed on the back of the cow and let them sit down.

Along the way, I saw many people carrying baskets and baskets to talk and laugh together, which was so lively. seems to be rendered by it, and the smile on Wan Ge's face can't help but increase.

When he arrived in the town, Song Jiu originally wanted Wange to go shopping first, but he didn't want to go with him to sell braised meat. Say that you have worked so hard for so long, and you haven't seen anyone sell it with your own eyes. And now that there is a new variety, she is also curious about what will happen. Would those people love that spicy rabbit meat?

Song Yu was reluctant, but she had to take someone with her.

This is the second time to come with Song Jiu, those who set up stalls are as enthusiastic as ever, and when they see the evening song, they are sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters. "You sit here for a while." Song Jiu pointed to the chair he was sitting on weekdays, and then began to neatly move out the things in the back basket and set them up.

Someone next to him saw it and unexpectedly asked, Song Jiu doesn't sell pork today?

Song Jiu replied that the Dragon Boat Festival would not be sold today, and he would have to go shopping with his daughter-in-law to go back for the festival later!

It's not the first time that everyone has heard Song Jiu show off his daughter-in-law, and it's no surprise that they are already surprised, but they are very embarrassed to sit in the evening song, and their faces are red with shame as if they have wiped rouge.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, there are a lot more people on the streets than usual. It's just that many people come to ask about these stalls on their tails, and they are so busy that they can't sit and rest for a while as usual. An old customer came, saw that there was something new on Song Jiu's stall, and curiously tasted the spicy stuff, shook his head and left.

A few more people followed, and those who couldn't eat spicy food were discouraged, weighed the braised pork and left. I don't like it, but there are also people who like spicy food, and I feel fresh and right when I taste it, so I buy a lot. Slowly, many people came around to inquire and taste, and for a while, there were more people in front of Song Jiu's stall.

Wan Ge sat next to him and looked at the big rocks rolling down the hillside, playing high from time to time, jumping again from time to time, and the ups and downs could not calm down.

The Jiang family also went to the street today, in addition to the Shen family and Jiang Qingyue, there was also a young man who followed, looking a little similar to the Shen family, dressed in a white dress, with ink and bamboo painted on it, and a scholarly scroll with a handsome air.

That is the second son of the Jiang family, the Jiang Cheng who is most expected to become this year's talent.

On weekdays, Jiangcheng studies in the Han School in Linzhen, and the Han School has two days off every month on weekdays. Jiang Cheng was too troublesome to travel back and forth, so he didn't come back. Only a few more days of festivals will be back, and it is rare to see them once. Even if the Shen family wants to see their son, they have to go all the way to the town.

This is less than the Dragon Boat Festival, and the school gives them three days off to go home and celebrate the festival with their families.

The son came back, and Shen was so happy that he couldn't do it. If you don't hurry up and take people to the street to see if there are any dishes you want to eat, buy them and make them for people to eat, Jiang Qingyue can't say what she feels in her heart.

Jiang Cheng, as the only son of the Jiang family, is favored and favored. The degree of food and clothing is the best in the family, and the Jiang family is reluctant to buy more meat for thirty wen a pound on weekdays, and even if they do, they eat it carefully. But Jiang Cheng said that he wanted to sell the inkstone, a tael of silver, and the Jiang family gave it to someone without frowning.

The three of them walked around the vegetable market, and inevitably saw Song Jiu and them.

"Isn't that an evening song? That person is a brother-in-law? "Jiang Cheng knew that Wange was married, so the bride price was spent on him!

However, he had only heard about Song Jiu, and knew that the other party was a lame butcher, but he had never seen it, and this was the first time he had seen it.

Shen's face was not good when she heard the name of the evening song, and now many people in the village laughed at her. Especially after Song Jiu made a lot of money selling braised meat, those words were even more incredible. said that she had found a good home for others, and insinuated that she would not lose her rice by stealing chickens.

Now she doesn't want to see them, and even if she goes out on the street, she never walks here, so as not to make trouble.

Jiang Cheng didn't know what was happening these days, and when he saw someone, he casually asked the Shen family if he wanted to call them back to eat with them during the Dragon Boat Festival today.

"Brother, forget it, people are not rare. Now that people are living a good life, they don't want to be dragged down by our poor mother's family, and they have already said that they want to cut off relations with us. Jiang Qingyue pursed her lips, she didn't go home to take a look at Qiushui Village yesterday, how could there be a Jiang family in her eyes!

"Huh?" Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Qingyue puzzled.

"Okay, okay, let's sell the vegetables and go back." Shen didn't want to talk about these things on the street, so he turned around and left with the basket. Jiang Qingyue didn't want to go over either, and hurriedly followed the steps of the Shen family.

However, Jiang Cheng didn't leave in a hurry, but looked back, Wan Ge looked over and looked at Jiang Cheng through the crowd, Jiang Cheng smiled lightly at the people, and then turned around and left.

"What's wrong?" Song Jiu turned around and saw Wan Ge staring in a daze.

"No, it's just that I saw Jiang Cheng just now." Wan Ge retracted his gaze and said that he was not an important person. After speaking, when he saw that the braised meat and rabbit meat on the stall were gone, he was surprised and asked, "It's gone?" ”

"Hmm!" Looking at Wan Ge's incredulous look, Song Jiu couldn't help laughing: "I didn't get much." ”

It is also a big festival like the Dragon Boat Festival, there are a lot of people coming and going, not to mention, everyone is thinking about the festival, but you have to eat better, and you will be more willing than usual.

In addition, people have a strange psychology, seeing so many people buying things in front of other people's stalls, they feel good, and what they didn't plan to buy will be fresh.

Otherwise, it will probably take a while to sell out on weekdays, how can it be so fast.

"It's sold today, and it's done." All of them were sold out, and Song Jiu handed over all the money sold today to Wange, and he didn't have any idea of hiding his secrets.

The people next to him coaxed when they saw it, and said that they didn't see that a rough man like Song Jiu was actually managed by his wife, and he made a big red face in the evening song.

Song Jiu was thick-skinned and didn't think there was anything at all, but proudly replied that they just couldn't eat grapes and said that they were sour, and if they had the ability, they would also find a daughter-in-law to take care of it!

As he spoke, he packed up his things in a hurry.

Before leaving, Song Jiu left some rabbit meat for Han Qiu to take back and taste, and he didn't know if it was to his taste.

Han Qiu was so happy to take it that he said that they were polite, and said that his sister-in-law would come often in the future!

Song Jiu waved his hand and left with the evening song amid everyone's laughter.

As soon as he walked away, Wan Ge grabbed people's elbows and asked Song Jiugang how he could say those words in front of so many people, and if he still had money to go back, could he still give it back? I had to make a joke in front of people, and her ears were still hot!

Song Yu rubbed his arm, which didn't hurt at all: "What are you afraid of, let them envy it." ”

"You can't do it in front of outsiders either."

Seeing that people were a little anxious, Song Jiu couldn't hold back his desire to laugh, but he had to pretend to be deep and say yes, he would pay attention next time.

Knowing that this person was duplicitous, Wan Ge didn't want to pay attention to him, turned his head and walked forward to pick vegetables. Song Jiu touched his nose, honestly followed behind the people with the basket on his back, and worked hard as a coolie.

It's also luck, I met Du Chun and them when I was shopping. Unlike the evening song, Du Chun and the others had already bought their things and planned to go back.

The evening song didn't say that people would eat at night, but Du Chun first asked them to come over for dinner at noon. said that there were only two people at home, her and Zhao Zhuang, and her mother-in-law couldn't go to her second brother's house this year. Thinking that they were also two people in the evening song, they simply called together, and there were many people and it was lively.

"Okay!" The evening song should say that he would eat at their place at noon, and that he would go to his house in the evening.

"Cheng, I'll call Liu Fang and them when I go back, and see if they come over. Okay, I'll go first, you guys walk slowly. Du Chun had to hurry back to get lunch, and Wange also had to go grocery shopping, so the two didn't talk.

After Du Chun left, Wange didn't go shopping anymore when he saw that it was almost over, so he went to Lao Jiang's place to get some wine and bought some realgar by the way and went back.
