Chapter 9 I don't lie

Out of the corner gate of the Wei family's backyard, Tong Shuangxi entered an alley, and turned into the street after a hundred meters of the alley.

Because when she came over, Tong Shuangxi paid careful attention, so on the way back, she walked quite smoothly, seeing that it was almost noon, she didn't bother, and quickly scooped up the watermelon at the bottom of the well, and then found a half-burned rag wrapped tightly, and went to Wang Mazi's baked cake shop on the street.

The proprietress of the grocery store was closing the door and preparing to go home for dinner, when she saw the little girl panting and carrying a large package last time, her eyes rolled and she hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Oops! What a good thing this time, how can it be so heavy! ”

As she spoke, the proprietress was about to reach out and open the package.

"Wang Niangzi, Wang Niangzi, this is not for sale!"

Tong Shuangxi hurriedly snatched the package, but the package was too heavy and his wrist was almost broken.

Mrs. Wang was not annoyed, laughed twice, and asked Tong Shuangxi a few words, and when she saw that the little girl had a tight mouth, she didn't say anything more, and turned around and went home for dinner.

The most important thing in doing business is to make money with harmony, and for so many years, many businesses in the open and in the dark are not done by relying on small cleverness.

Far away, Tong Shuangxi really saw Qiusheng standing at the door of the shop and looking around, thinking that the temptation of the watermelon was really not small.

"Double happiness, double happiness! Why did you come here so late! "After eating watermelon, Qiusheng still wants to rush back to eat that lunch, although the master's food is clear soup and little water, it can still be considered to be full.

Seeing that Qiusheng's face was anxious, Tong Shuangxi was not annoyed, put down the cloth bag in his hand, rubbed his aching arm, and said to the boss Wang Mazi: "Boss Wang, three dry pancakes!" ”

Wang Mazi remembered this little girl.

"Don't want sesame seeds, red beans? If you want, I'll calculate your price from the last time! Wang Mazi said half seriously and half jokingly.

Tong Shuangxi smiled sweetly and said, "No need, I only have two pennies left in my hand!" ”

Wang Mazi was not annoyed, smiled and handed the freshly baked cakes into an oiled paper bag to Tong Shuangxi.

Qiusheng didn't speak anymore, and looked at the pancake in Tong Shuangxi's hand and swallowed his saliva.

Qiusheng was in the apprentice's master's house, except for the festival and the New Year, he ate the coarse steamed buns, and the master's wife was not the one who could cook, and the cakes were made black and hard, and Qiusheng had a toothache and a sore throat.

"Brother Qiusheng, you eat!"

Tong Shuangxi looked like this, and he didn't understand anything, so he handed over two cakes very proudly.

Qiusheng was surprised, when did this Tong Shuangxi become so atmospheric, he still remembered that when he was in the village before, he had to quarrel with people because of a sour grass!

"Let's go over there to eat, don't get in the way of other people's business!" Tong Shuangxi saw that someone came to buy baked cakes again, so he said to Qiusheng, and after speaking, he looked at the package on the ground.

Tong Shuangxi was generous, Qiusheng was not that eyeless, he hurriedly put the baked cake in his arms, and then picked up the package and walked to the side alley.

The heaviness of the hand, coupled with the round and solid feel, Qiusheng's eyes lit up.

However, there was a strange look on his face at random, but he saw that there were still people, so he hurriedly quickened his pace and walked towards the alley.

Tong Shuangxi only thought that this Qiusheng was a monkey who was anxious to eat, so he sped up his pace and followed.

When he arrived at the alley, Qiusheng gently put down the package, pulled Tong Shuangxi, and asked in a serious whisper, "Where did you get such a big watermelon?" ”

Qiusheng heard Tong Shuangxi say that there was watermelon to eat, but she thought that she had watermelon, and secretly hid such a small piece or two small pieces, but she didn't expect it to be such a whole.

Such a big whole watermelon, even Qiusheng's master is reluctant to buy it, let alone Tong Shuangxi, a little girl who is just a concubine.

Tong Shuangxi didn't think about it so much, and when he saw Qiusheng asking like this, he only said: "Just eat some of them, why are you asking so much!" ”

It's just that there is some weakness in the end.

"Mother said that many maids and boys from big families were killed because they stole the things of the master's family, you better send the watermelon back quickly, don't be caught by the master's family and lose your life!"

Before the apprenticeship, Qiusheng also learned some rules half-baked.

Tong Shuangxi was surprised, but there was also a touch in his heart, which was Tong Shuangxi's first concern in this place.

"Don't worry, this is the old lady of the Wei family asked me to take it out, you know, the Wei family was burned, the old lady of the Wei family wanted to exchange this fresh thing for some emergency money, and she didn't want people to know, so she made me quietly carry the watermelon!"

It is not right to deceive people, and it is even more wrong to deceive honest people.

Just a white lie is sometimes necessary.

Knowing that he thought badly, Qiu Sheng was stunned.

"Then you lied to me that there was watermelon to eat!"

No wonder my mother always said that the women who were concubines were not good people, they were all the reincarnations of the fox spirits.

Qiusheng muttered and took out the baked cake in his arms to eat, and the two cheeks were still bulging, and he didn't know if it was because he was angry or because he ate the baked cake.

"Brother Qiusheng, I don't lie, as long as you help me...... No...... Help the old lady of the Wei family sell this watermelon, and this watermelon will definitely share a piece of it! ”

Tong Shuangxi didn't care about Qiusheng's anger, but said sincerely.

Sure enough, Qiusheng's eyes lit up, and then he pointed at Tong Shuangxi even more angrily and said, "You...... You really think I'm that fool who doesn't know anything, Tong Shuangxi, why are you such a person! ”

In the end, it's a half-grown kid, and it's still the child's style to quarrel.

Tong Shuangxi knew that Qiusheng had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained: "I don't lie, I don't deceive, this watermelon is not sold whole, but sold piece by piece!" ”

Hearing Tong Shuangxi's words, Qiusheng was confused.

So Tong Shuangxi explained to this Qiusheng how to sell this watermelon.

This is still when Tong Shuangxi thought of his previous life, there would be vendors in some scenic spots who would cut watermelons, pineapples and other fruits into pieces to sell.

Qiusheng's eyes became brighter and brighter when he heard it.

"Sell the remaining two pieces, if you want to eat, keep it, if you don't want to eat, sell it together, and the money from the sale will also belong to you!"

It wasn't until Tong Shuangxi's last two sentences were finished that Qiusheng's entire face lit up.

With such a big watermelon, two pieces is not small, and it will be a lot of money when it is sold.

Qiusheng didn't think about the sweet taste of watermelon anymore at this time, and only thought about the expectant eyes of his younger brothers and sisters at home when he went home on his day off.

"Will anyone buy it?"

After the joy, Qiusheng was also worried.

"Sure, sure, sure!"

Tong Shuangxi assured.

I don't know why, after hearing Tong Shuangxi's words, Qiusheng felt at ease for no reason, and the one who was smiling and squinting in front of him was obviously the fox spirit who liked to deceive people in his mother's mouth.

"My daughter, my son of misery! My mother raised you for a trip, and in the end you died, and you didn't even see your body! O my wretched daughter! ”

At this moment, a thunderous cry reached the ears of Tong Shuangxi and Qiusheng.
