"Ha, is it okay to have a baby and eat chicken only once?" Qiu Se was amused, "Besides, my mother only ate one bowl of that chicken, and most of the rest went into other people's stomachs, and I don't know if they can have a child by then." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, big girl! That's your grandmother, and Jinbao is your brother. Ding Dafu's face was a little ugly, "How can you talk about your relatives like this." ”

Qiu Se felt that Ding Dafu was really pitiful and hateful, "Relatives? Can relatives scold people at will? Can relatives die without being saved? You treat them as relatives, do they treat you as relatives? ”

Ding Dafu's face was blue and red, his chest rose and fell sharply, and he wanted to reprimand Qiu Se for saying something wrong, but he didn't know what to say.

"I'm going back." Qiu Se saw the Ding family's father and son coming towards this side from a distance, and sneered: "You can sell me to save your relatives, I wonder if your relatives are willing to buy knife meat for your wife and son to eat?" You work so hard and can't even afford meat for your wife and son, it's so pitiful! After saying that, he left without looking back.

Ding Dafu stood stunned in place, the last sentence of the autumn color exploded in his mind, and he couldn't think of anything, only that sentence appeared in his mind over and over again.

"Big brother, you don't wait for work over there, hide here, we don't even get the job!" Ding Sanfu was still a few steps away from Ding Dafu and began to shout, and when he came to him, he found that his eldest brother's eyes were straight and he didn't hear himself at all, so he pushed him angrily, "Big brother, what are you doing!" ”

Ding Dafu almost fell, he took two steps back to stabilize his body, and found that all the people standing in front of him were his relatives, his father who was hunched over with a furrow face, the second brother who was depressed, and the third brother who was glaring at him resentfully.

"Boss, what are you talking about here? There's something you can't go home and talk about! Someone just happened to hire four people, and we didn't get selected because we didn't have enough people. "The wrinkles on Ding Laohan's forehead can trap flies.

Ding Dafu couldn't hear what his father was saying at this time, his brain seemed to be stopped at this moment, and he actually asked Qiuse's words out of the way, "Dad, Sanya and her mother need to make up for her body, buy some meat for her to stew today, right?" ”

"I said, big brother, are you embarrassed? Because you didn't do your job, you still want meat? Ding Sanfu was even more dissatisfied.

Ding Laohan's drooping eyelids immediately picked, "I can't eat at home, where is the money to eat meat?" Besides, your daughter-in-law is just bringing a baby, why do you take medicine today and ask for meat tomorrow? Did your eldest daughter teach you? Boss, you are not a small person, think more about me, your mother and your brother. ”

Although it was an expected answer, Ding Dafu still hung his head in disappointment and said in a low voice: "I was able to sell the eldest girl to buy grain, why can't my father buy knife meat back?" I just made enough money. ”

Old Man Ding was furious, his eyes widened, and his beard trembled, "You mean to settle accounts with me?" Don't you nod your head too? You don't agree that your mother can sell? When I first escaped, I asked you to throw her away, and you didn't say anything unless you took me with me. Or do you want to sell your baby to buy meat for your mother-in-law? ”

"Big brother, if you want to sell you and sell Sanya, don't beat my family's Jinbao and Hongxing's idea." Ding Sanfu was surprised that the eldest brother, who had always been honest and didn't talk much, dared to put forward conditions to his father today, and hurriedly expressed his position when he heard this.

Ding Erfu also sank his face, "Big brother, I'm just a child of Hongyu." ”

"I didn't ......" Ding Dafu had to habitually hang his head and admit his mistakes, but his chaotic mind suddenly flashed the words of Qiu Liang just now, "You treat them as relatives, do they treat you as relatives", his head couldn't hang down, looking at his father and brother who were glaring at him in front of him, for some reason his nose suddenly became a little sour, God knows, he just wanted to buy knife meat for his pregnant daughter-in-law to eat!

"Okay, hurry up and wait for work, don't think about something all day long." Ding Laohan was uncomfortable with his eldest son's tearful eyes, and took the lead in walking towards the shade of the tree with an explanation.

Ding Erfu and Ding Sanfu also followed, Ding Dafu slowly followed behind with legs that seemed to be filled with lead, feeling that he was really a waste, working desperately every day, his tired waist couldn't stand up, but in the end he couldn't even afford to buy knife meat.

On the other hand, Qiu Se said what he had been trying to say, and felt a lot more open, on the way back, Qiu Se planned to buy some red dates and red-skinned peanuts, since he wanted to save the Wu family, he must save it.

Yu Ji dry goods are located in the center of the town, the shop is large and varied, and the quality of the goods is also good in autumn, so I bought three catties of jujubes and two catties of peanuts, and the things are not expensive, and it only cost a total of thirteen yuan.

"Girl, look at something else. We are the largest dry goods store in the town, and there are also sea vegetables from the south, why don't you have some? "The man saw that he was still looking around after buying things in the autumn color, so he came over to solicit business.

"I'll take a look." Autumn color doesn't like the salesperson following closely behind when shopping, feeling like a prisoner being watched, turning around, not realizing that what he wants is just about to leave when he hears a quarrel next to him.

"I've said that I won't accept it, hurry up!" The shopkeeper's impatient voice sounded, "Hmph, I thought it was really some good fruit, causing me to delay my efforts!" ”

"Shopkeeper, you just accept this wild fruit, I climbed the tree to pick it, there is not a single insect, it is cheaper, so let me buy two catties of black noodles and go back." The man who spoke was a young man of about ten years old, with a sallow face, a thin body, and shabby clothes, who was begging the shopkeeper at the moment.

The shopkeeper's anger is getting bigger and bigger, "I'm a dry goods store, I won't accept you this, besides, your wild fruit has no insects, but it's sour and gent, the skin is thick, and the dogs don't eat it, who will I sell it to!" ”

The young man still pleaded bitterly, "Shopkeeper, you should be kind, my family has been without food for three days." ”

"What does your family's lack of food have to do with me?"

The young man's face was even more discouraged, silently tied the mouth of the cloth bag, the grocery stores in the town were all over the dry goods store, but no one wanted to buy these wild fruits, and he didn't have time to go to the market, what should he do next to exchange some money to buy noodles?

"I'll see." Autumn colors came to the boy.

"Huh?" It turned out that the desperate young man looked at the woman who suddenly stood in front of him, the woman was fair-skinned, her eyes were bright, and she was looking at him with a smile, the young man blushed, and hurriedly opened the mouth of the cloth bag.

Autumn Colors picked up a wild fruit and asked the boy, "Can I taste it?" ”

A glimmer of hope rose in the young man's heart, and there was a hint of embarrassment, "Yes, yes!" I deliberately picked a large one for this wild fruit, but it is a little sour, but it can quench your thirst. ”

The shopkeeper snorted coldly on the side, "If you want to quench your thirst, why do you want this sour wild fruit?" Girl, if you want to eat fruit, there is a grocery store in front of him, his family has a farm outside the town, and the wild fruits, pears and apricots in it are all home-grown, and they are better than this and there are no insects! ”

The young man looked at Autumn Color nervously, for fear that she would not want her own fruit as the shopkeeper said.

Autumn color looked at the wild fruits in his hand, some like apples, but slightly smaller than apples, but much larger than small sand fruits, different sizes, some are still green, take a bite, as the shopkeeper said that the skin is thick and the flesh is sour and not easy to chew, the only advantage of this fruit is that there are no insects, maybe even insects think this fruit is unpalatable.

"It's not ripe yet! It's delicious when it's cooked, and if you put it in the cupboard, it's delicious. The boy was afraid of autumn colors and didn't buy it, so he racked his brains to come up with ideas.

"Why are you picking it if it's not cooked?" Autumn color spit out the flesh that had bitten into his mouth, looked at the bag of wild fruits on the ground, and had a faint idea in his heart. In modern times, the apples she occasionally bought were also unpalatable, but later she learned to cook them with sugar and peeled apples, and when they were cold, they were very delicious.

Autumn decided that she wanted to make canned sugar water out of these fruits, and I didn't find anyone here who could make canned food, so it should be easier to sell, and if it did, it would be a sure livelihood!

Listening to Qiu's question, the young man's expression darkened, and he looked sad, "My father went up the mountain to chop firewood and injured his leg, in order to treat my father's injuries, the things at home are all dang, and now the family is out of food, I cut firewood for two days to be enough for a load, and I have to dry it tomorrow to sell, so I thought about going up the mountain to pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables to sell, but I picked a bag of green fruits when I picked anything, and I thought that I could always sell it for two cents and buy catties of black noodles to eat." ”

"And how much are you going to sell this bag of fruit?" After listening to the young man's encounter, the autumn color felt a little sour.

"You want to buy it?" The young man looked surprised, and then immediately quoted, "This bag is fifteen catties to say the least, you can give me eight cents." For fear that the autumn color would change, he paused and said, "Wuwen is fine." ”

"Okay, I'll do it all." Qiu Se felt that the price was not expensive, and she decided to help him when she only planned to buy two catties to try.

The shopkeeper glanced at Autumn Color, "Yo, you're really going to buy it!" ”

"My mother is pregnant and wants to eat sour." Qiu Shi didn't have a good impression of the cold-hearted shopkeeper, and turned his head and asked the young man, "Can you help me deliver it home?" ”

"Yes, no problem." The overjoyed young man tied the cloth bag on the ground and carried it on his back, and walked out of Yu Ji after the autumn colors.

"Eldest sister, do you want firewood tomorrow?" Walking out quite far, the young man decided to ask after struggling in his heart, after all, there are not many kind-hearted people like the eldest sister in front, and the firewood he cuts is so small that no one else will ask for it.

"My firewood is offered." Qiu Se listened to the young man's voice a little dazed, so he looked back and saw him with a depressed look. After a little thought, I understood the boy's thoughts.

"But you come to my house tomorrow when you come to the town to sell firewood, and if I still use this wild fruit, someone will bring you a message. , just bother you to send it over the day after tomorrow, first say okay, but the price is not allowed. ”

"No, no, no!" The young man waved his hand excitedly, and after the excitement, the young man felt a little guilty, "Sister, in fact, this wild fruit is not delicious, and it is very difficult to spend money to buy it, so it is better to wait until I pick the delicious wild fruit and then send it to you." ”

This young man is really real, he has never seen anything that says that what he sells is not good, Qiu Se smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, if it is successful, I can make money with this wild fruit, and then you will only sell it to me and you will not be allowed to increase the price." ”
