Qiu Se was taken aback, and hurriedly ran back a few steps and then pretended to be in a hurry to run to the thatched house, walked opposite the two and deliberately asked: "Second aunt, third girl, why did you two go together?" ”

"Oh, we met." Zhang snorted, and asked suspiciously, "What?" You're here? ”

"Ah, are you looking for me?" Autumn asked as if she was puzzled.

"No, then you should hurry up!" Zhang waved his hand and left.

Sanya was also a little uncomfortable when she saw the autumn color, and called the eldest sister to leave, but was stopped by the autumn color.

"You go to my house, my mother is there!"

When Qiu Se returned to the house, he found that Wu and Sanya were looking carefully at the watermelon, and reached out to touch it from time to time, as if it was a treasure, and such a cautious attitude caused Qiu Se to laugh.

"Come on, I'll cut it open, let's taste it."

"Don't!" Wu hurriedly stopped her, "Big girl, is this really a green melon?" She still couldn't believe it.

"yes!"

"Sister, how much did you spend to buy it? Sister Xiaocao said that the rich man also bought a watermelon once when he was celebrating his birthday, and he spent a lot of silver! Sanya couldn't help but ask.

"Big girl, it's not easy for you to make money, why do you buy such an expensive thing? Quickly retreat back. ”

Qiu Se smiled: "Mother, how can I return the things I sold, and besides, I didn't spend any money." Come, Sanya will help me carry the table over and cut melons. ”

"Huh? Didn't spend money? Wu was stunned for a moment, and watched as Qiu Se used a tiny dagger to cut a crack in the skin of the green melon.

"Sanya, go and help me get the kitchen knife." Autumn color while breaking watermelons and commanding Sanya.

"Oh." Sanya put down the autumn dagger and went to the outer room, and after a while, she took the kitchen knife, and she asked while watching the autumn color cut the watermelon: "Sister, did you buy this dagger?" It's so small, it's smaller than my mother's scissors! But it's pretty fast, and it's pretty easy to hold, how much does it cost? ”

Autumn cut the watermelon into an equal crescent shape, and replied casually: "Don't look at it small, but it will cost me almost a tael of silver!" Come, eat watermelon. "In the past, I used to use it to peel the fruit in my own house, so it was the first time Wu and Sanya had seen this little dagger.

As soon as she heard that the dagger was bought for a tael of silver, Sanya swallowed back the words given to her, took the watermelon and looked at the dagger with some reluctance.

Qiu Shi didn't pay attention, after cutting the watermelon, she put away the dagger, and rubbed it over to eat the watermelon, she saw that Wu and Sanya were a little afraid to eat, so she said: "Eat it quickly, or it will be wasted in a while." ”

Wu took a small bite of the watermelon, felt a sweet juice overflowing his mouth, went down his throat into his stomach, smashed his mouth and said, "No wonder this thing is so expensive, it is indeed delicious!" ”

"Hey, Sanya, I won't eat the white one." Qiu Se saw that Sanya was still going to eat after eating the red gourd, and hurriedly stopped her, and handed over a tooth of watermelon, "Just eat the red place." ”

Sanya smiled and said, "This watermelon is really delicious, and I have to work hard to make money to buy watermelon." ”

"Where is the money so easy to make, just me and my father have to earn five days without eating or drinking to buy a watermelon to eat, and it has to catch up with the business when the business is good and the watermelon is cheap."

"Actually......" Sanya seemed to want to say something, but then shut up again.

"Even if you make money, you have to guard against others worrying, or someone picks the lock and steals your money today, and someone says that they want to borrow your money another day, and they don't stop all day."

Wu opened his mouth and asked, "What?" Your second aunt borrowed money from you again? ”

"It's not, I say that the profit is high all day long, and I haven't seen her make a fortune with the money, besides, if the borrower runs away, I will borrow money from whom!" Saying that, Qiu Se glanced at Sanya, she felt that people should call themselves Sister Sheng, and some things should be reminded, and this kind of money is not so easy to make by lending.

Sanya's originally relaxed expression had become very solemn, and she asked hesitantly, "Didn't the second aunt say that she would look for her if there was a problem?" ”

"What can you do with her? If she doesn't pay for it, can you beat her, scold her, or kill her? So it's better to make money steadily, and don't think about making more money (1). ”

"Oh." Sanya didn't feel as sweet as she just now while eating the watermelon, and after eating, she went out of the house by going to the thatched house, and saw her enter the west wing room through the window, thinking that she was going to find Zhang. Qiu Se can only say so much to persuade her, and the one who doesn't listen is Sanya herself.

Wu didn't understand why Qiu Se suddenly said these things again, and felt that she seemed to be saying this to Sanya, so he asked her, "What's wrong with Sanya?" ”

"It's okay, she's gone to the hut." Qiu Se didn't tell Wu Sanya about the loan, so as not to let her think about it.

"Oh." Wu didn't think much about it, and talked about Ding Dafulai, "Your father didn't come back at noon, I think the canned food was not sold out." Now that canned food is getting harder and harder to sell, why don't you sell canned food yourself in the future and let your father go to work in the salt mine! At the door, your Uncle Chen will get back a tael of silver after going for two months. "It's not a way to make money by always pointing to your daughter.

"Mother, don't let my father be a miner, it's too tiring and dangerous, let him sell watermelons with me tomorrow."

"Huh? Selling watermelons? Ouch, I knew I wouldn't have eaten it just now! Wu looked annoyed.

Qiu Se smiled, "Mother, this watermelon is to be eaten back, and there are still watermelons sold, where is it at Qingniang?" ”

"Who is Qing Niang? Where did you get the money to buy watermelon? Isn't it to set up a female household? You can't spend money indiscriminately. Although the Wu family was dissatisfied with her daughter's desire to set up a female household, they couldn't get used to her spending money so indiscriminately.

"I bought the watermelon, it belongs to the tiger master, and I partner with him to sell watermelons; Qing Niang is the proprietress of the teahouse, and she is the ...... who was poisoned last time" Qiu Se simply told what happened today.

"Oh." Wu Shi looked at the autumn colors and asked tentatively: "Big girl, ...... you and the tiger master?"

"Mother, I really have nothing to do with him, it's just a partnership to sell melons. Mother, it's time for you to go back and rest for a while, take this half of the watermelon back to my father to eat. Qiu Se picked up most of the remaining watermelons and stuffed them into Wu's arms and pushed her out of the door.

Wu was taken aback, "Where can your father eat so much?" I'm holding that little piece and that's it. As he spoke, he pushed back, but was sent back to the opposite room by the autumn color.

Qiu Se leaned her back against the door frame and let out a sigh, she knew that she was going to talk about herself and Ai Laohu again after listening to Wu's words, but the key was that there was nothing between them! It's annoying to be told like this, and now she can't help but peek at Ai Laohu when she sees him, really!

"This kid!" Wu looked at most of the watermelon in his arms and sighed, took a cloth towel and covered it, thinking that the eldest girl was really filial piety, and she gave it to herself for nearly one or two silver, but why didn't she want to fall on her household registration?

Autumn color took out the mountain grapes from the basket and wanted to make some wine, so he picked these grapes again, in fact, the grapes were already very clean, presumably they had been cleaned up, the autumn color scooped water and then rinsed the basin twice, to see that the hoarfrost on it was not completely washed away before relieving, thinking that if you want to make wine, you have to buy a jar, so you will control the grapes to buy the jar.

In order to make a good autumn color of wine, I deliberately chose a black glaze wine jar with good sealing, and went to the cloth shop to pull a piece of muslin cloth and a thick homespun cloth back, and when I arrived at the mouth of the alley, I happened to meet Ding Dafu who was pushing a cart and hurried back.

Ding Dafu, who saw the good autumn color, relieved his heart, and couldn't help complaining: "Didn't you ask you to wait for me there?" Why did you come back alone first? How did you get back so many barrels? ”

Qiu Se was a little embarrassed, she only cared about finding Ding Dafu to do things but forgot that he would go to the dock to pick her up before he went home, and hurriedly put the jar on the car to take over, she is now very proficient in pushing, and explained while walking: "Dad, the three barrels and bowls are all at Qingniang's!" I came back in a hurry to find you, there is a good thing! ”

"What's the good thing? What do you buy this jar for? There's something spare for your milk! ”

"You'll know when you get home, Zhun Bao was shocked." Autumn color deliberately sold a pass.

When Ding Dafu saw the watermelon, he was really taken aback, "How much does this thing cost?" After learning that Qiu Se and Ai Laohu were selling melons together, he also glanced at his eldest daughter and admonished, "You guys should settle things earlier, it's not good for you for a long time." ”

Qiu Se didn't bother to explain, she went back to the house and took two cut watermelons and handed them to Ding Dafu for him to taste.

Ding Dafu held the watermelon but didn't move, and asked after a while: "Do you have it over there?" In fact, he doesn't need to say that he also knows that since the separation, the eldest daughter has not taken the initiative to speak when she sees the other people of the Ding family on weekdays, let alone take the initiative to send them things.

"I didn't send it, Dad, you can send it if you want to!" Qiuse knew what Ding Dafu meant, and giving him the watermelon by himself was considered filial piety, and he couldn't stop others from doing his filial piety, right?

"Dad, I haven't eaten enough!" Sanya stomped his feet in a hurry.

Wu pulled her, "Stop, didn't you eat it all just now?" ”

"You eat these two teeth of your father." Ding Dafu gave the watermelon that Qiu Se brought over to Sanya, and went to the main room with half a watermelon in his arms.

Autumn color was a little congested, and turned around and went out to wash the jar. It's not that she's stingy, she doesn't even want to give the old man a watermelon, and some people don't deserve your respect at all. Sure enough, after a while, Mrs. Ding's unique scolding voice came from the main room.

"If you don't send something affordable, what is such a thing used to show off?" Qiu suddenly remembered the two gifts he gave when he first returned to Ding's house, and he was also disgusted.

"What, just such a thing is worth two taels of silver?" I don't know who said what Mrs. Ding listened to, her voice suddenly turned high, and then she was drowned out by some messy voices.

After a while, Mrs. Ding's voice appeared again, "I don't want this thing, you bring me the silver!" ”

Immediately followed by Jinbao's crying voice, "I want to eat, I want to eat, I just want to eat green melon!" ”

After that, I don't have the heart to listen to the autumn colors in the main room, it's just that you are better than them. She took the washed jar to the sun and exposed it, and saw Ding Dafu coming back with his head on his head.

"Dad, sell watermelons with me tomorrow, don't make canned food yet!" Qiu Se admonished Ding Dafu when he was about to enter the door of the East Chamber.

"Hmm." Ding Dafu snorted, and flashed directly into the room without looking back.

Autumn eyes are sharp, I saw a few fresh scratches on his cheeks, I thought it was Mrs. Ding's masterpiece, I couldn't help pouting, look, I didn't have to say anything about it, and I also sent a wound!

Pretty money: This refers to money that is relatively easy to earn.
