Chapter 69: Finding Fault
"Chestnuts that strengthen the spleen and stomach, strengthen muscles and bones, and are suitable for the elderly and pregnant women." Bai Ling shouted loudly: "Don't miss it when you pass by, as long as you are twenty wen a catty, the whole family can eat as a snack, and you should be hungry ......."
"Second girl, how can it be as good as you say, but it doesn't deceive." Bai Sanshu quietly pulled Bai Ling's sleeve, his face a little anxious.
"Dad, I didn't tell a lie, this thing is really good, I sent it to Dr. Chen, he said so." Bai Ling temporarily said nonsense, and said secretly: There are more benefits, I don't dare to say that it is easy to fight.
When Bai Sanshu heard this, he didn't say anything.
Bai Ling shouted a few more times, and there were more and more onlookers, and there were many people who wanted to buy it when they smelled the smell, and they were afraid that twenty wen a pound would not taste good, and it would be a waste of money.
"This chestnut is a new thing, aunts and aunts try one first, you can buy it if it's delicious, and you don't need money if it's not delicious." Bai Ling took a small basket woven by Bai Sanshu, filled it with some chestnuts, and distributed them to the onlookers one by one.
"Girl, don't you sell this thing instead of fish? Then I want to taste it, and I will come to you every day after it is delicious. Before, Mrs. Bai found fault with the eldest lady who helped Bai Ling to relieve the siege smiled and asked, "How do you eat this thing?" ”
"Auntie, you see there's a hole here, you can pinch it and open it." Bai Ling showed everyone, peeled a chestnut and put it in his mouth to chew.
After the onlookers tasted one after another, the eldest lady took the lead in weighing two catties, and the others also bought one and a half catties.
People who have spare money have the heart to try new things and spend a little money.
"There are many benefits of this chestnut, everyone should pay attention when making snacks, don't eat it after meals, it is easy to accumulate food. And women and people with constipation should not eat. Bai Ling helped collect the money and shouted loudly, "But people with edema, especially those who are old and sick, can eat some ...... often."
Bai Liu's family was still distressed that Bai Ling had sent out so many chestnuts, but he couldn't be busy in a blink of an eye, and he couldn't spare time for a pot of fried chestnuts.
Because it was just a trial sale, I only brought two bags of chestnuts, and they were sold out quickly.
Bai Sanshu and Bai Liu want to make money, so they will sell at the gate of the market, and they will come over every market day.
Bai Ling didn't want the two of them to work so hard, but when he saw the smiles on their faces, he didn't stop them.
When I got home in the evening, the family sat together and counted the copper plates, and they sold for nearly 2,000 wen.
"Mom, I made almost two taels of silver this day!" Bai Yanagi closed his mouth in surprise.
"Now it's because the chestnuts fried in sugar are fresh, and I can earn more this month, and it's good to sell a few hundred wen a day in the future." Bai Ling was afraid that the Bai Liu clan would not be able to accept the gap in the future, so he said it in front.
"That's a lot, this thing doesn't have much capital, sugar and oil are three hundred dollars to death, but today I made a couple of silver." The Bailiu clan was still very happy.
Seeing this, Bai Wei Nunu said: "When the village chief's family finishes the happy event, the whole village knows that chestnuts can be sold for money, and it will not be a business-free transaction for us to do it again." ”
"Our family got up early in the morning to pick chestnuts in the dark, and then moved back from the mountains, and then peeled them one by one, which took a lot of effort. In the future, our family doesn't expect to make a fortune selling chestnuts, and it's good to make a little difference. Bai Ling reassured.
"Yes, your mother and I are idle, and we can earn dozens of dollars a day, which is enough for our family to eat meat every day, which is better than staying dry all winter." The way of contentment of the white three trees.
Bai Wei looked at the satisfied look of the family speechlessly, and her chest was a little stuffy.
Bai Ling smiled faintly, this is the reason why she liked this family in the first place, and she knew that she was always happy.
Bai Sanshu and his wife went to sell sugar and fried chestnuts every day, Bai Ling went over to help when he went to the town, or he went into the mountains with Chu Wen to dig herbs, and Bai Wei was responsible for taking care of those winter vegetables and taking care of his two younger brothers and sisters.
At the beginning of October, Bai Ling ushered in the first snow after the crossing and also attended the first wedding.
The conditions of the village chief's family are good, and the village chief's youngest daughter marries the youngest son of his classmate's family, which can be regarded as a good match, and the banquet is more lively.
The bride was picked up early in the morning, and Bai Wanshi was reluctant to give up his daughter, but he still had to greet the guests with red eyes.
The rules of Qianshan Village, whoever has a happy event, are all dragged by the main family in the past, but the etiquette is not big, which is also a blessing.
The third room has been separated, so naturally the whole family has to go to eat and drink.
However, the men and women are at separate tables, the men are drinking and chatting, and the women are mostly with children, and the banquet is cleaned as soon as it comes up, and the slow hands can't eat a bite.
"Liu, why don't you eat it?" The fat aunt asked with a mouthful of oil, and when she spoke, the spit stars flew all over the table.
"I'm eating." Bai Liu replied embarrassedly.
"You grabbed it so fast, we have to have a chance to eat it if we want to." Bai Wei rolled her eyes, looking down on the style of the fat aunt and the Chen Huang family.
"Can you speak, girl? It's not a blessing at first glance! Eating happy wine is to get happy, and spicy goods like you that no one wants, you should not be able to grab them. Chen Huang pulled the fat in the bowl into his mouth and spoke without any words.
Bai Wei wanted to slap the table angrily, but Bai Ling grabbed her hand and said in a low voice: "Today is the big day of the village chief's family, don't lose your temper, the face of the main family will not look good at that time." ”
"Humph!" Bai Wei glared at Chen Huang, shook off Bai Ling's hand, and sulked.
"Look, I'm talking about it, it's really unlucky." Chen Huang raised his arm and wiped the fat from the corner of his mouth.
Bai Ling, who didn't want to cause trouble, smiled faintly and said: "My aunt is blessed, and the girl who teaches her will also rob her of good fortune." I just don't know if the Zhang family has come to propose marriage? ”
Chen Huang's face turned dark, and Chen Jing, who was sitting next to her, turned pale.
Although Sanfang is a little far away from the village, you can also meet the little girls in the village who dig wild vegetables and hunt pigweed, and you can hear some gossip.
The Chen family wanted to marry Chen Jing to Zhang Wangcai, but the Zhang family thought that they had developed in the past few years and looked down on the Chen family at all, so the Chen Huang family went to the Zhang family to make trouble.
But as a result, the Zhang family did not admit it, but Chen Jing's reputation in the village was ruined, and it was difficult to marry a good family in the future.
"You dead girl, shut up if you can't speak, be careful I tear your mouth apart!" Chen Huang slapped his chopsticks and stood up, rolling up his sleeves and about to hit someone.
"Chen Huang, if you don't want to sit at the table, go out, what are you making trouble in my house, give us no face, right?" Bai Wanshi was talking to the person at the next table, and when he heard the movement of this table, he paid attention, how could he not make a sound.
"It's this dead girl...... Chen Huang pointed at Bai Ling and was about to scold, but was intercepted by Bai Wan.
"It's my old daughter who is getting married today, do you dare to say that word again? Believe it or not, the old lady beat you out! Bai Wanshi shouted angrily.
Although Chen Huang's family was horizontal, he didn't dare to offend the village chief's family, and when he found that he had said something unlucky, he could only sit down gloomily, but his eyes looked at Bai Ling fiercely.
Bai Liu's body trembled, and he pulled Bai Ling's hand to feel a little more relieved.
"Hmph, some people just don't have a good time, they eat meat at home, and they make trouble when they look down on the Lord's table, and they really think it's a lot of stinky money." Mrs. Bai snorted, and it was a coincidence that their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting on the other side of Bai Ling's house.
Bai Ling lowered his eyes speechlessly, too lazy to take a stubble.
