Ye Xiaohua looked up at the young man with his back to the sun, he looked a little restrained and a little uncomfortable, "It's gone." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed in Xu Huaiyang's eyes, and his smile was a little broken, but just when Ye Xiaohua put away the red cloth where the colorful rope was placed, Xu Huaiyang saw the colorful rope coming out from under the red cloth, and he instantly felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

"Yes, and there's more." He was no longer as quiet and cold as before, and was happy like a seven or eight-year-old child, "I want it, I want this, give you money." ”

No more, no less, five cents.

Ye Xiaohua looked at the bracelet and secretly scolded herself for being sloppy, otherwise she would sell it for less than five cents, how could anyone who sells things pick customers, and who is she selling to.

Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, with the experience of the past, Ye Xiaohua searched inside and out, and made sure that there was no bracelet, and it was not too early, so she bought something for the festival and went home.

"Let's go." After Ye Xiaohua finished speaking, she said hello to Zeng Xiang next to her.

Zeng Xiang said in a very envious tone: "Let's go, our street, or your business is good, the stalls are sold out in an hour, and you make a lot of money, right?" ”

Ye Xiaohua looked back and smiled, "Brother Xiangzi, you just watch me make money, and I also have a lot of costs for this thing." ”

Zeng Xiang thought about how much it would cost to just a few colored threads, but why should he say it so clearly, the little girl sold it for money, and he was happy to see it, "Okay, go home quickly, will you come next time?" ”

"Let's talk about it."

Xu Huaiyang held the bracelet, and in addition to being excited, he caught a glimpse of Ye Xiaohua talking and laughing with the strange man next to him, he was very envious, he also wanted to talk to her more, but when he thought of his mother's words, he still endured it.

Soon, the daughter-in-law of the Xu family took the newly bought fabric, look at the color, it was for Xu Huaiyang to make clothes, today she brought her son to the market, one is to prepare things for the festival, and the other is to buy him fast materials to make clothes.

When the son is older and has his own ideas, the daughter-in-law of the Xu family wants to let him choose the color he wants.

"I'll just pay for it, and you're gone, why are you here?" The daughter-in-law of the Xu family first went to the place where she sold pen, ink, paper and inkstone, but her son was not there, so the town was not big, and the stalls were all on the main street, and the son was so big, even if he was separated, he was not worried that he would lose it.

Xu Huaiyang didn't respond, but fiddled with the bracelet in his hand, and the daughter-in-law of the Xu family caught a glimpse, "This is a colorful rope?" Not to mention, it's weird and good-looking, where did it come from? ”

Xu Huaiyang said lightly: "I bought it." ”

The daughter-in-law of the Xu family also liked it very much, and she didn't know who was so ingenious, and the simple five-color thread made it so good-looking, but what surprised her was more than this, "Don't you like to tie this thing?" After the age of ten, my mother won't let you get you. ”

Xu Huaiyang believed that he would be able to make a difference, so the sorrow and gloom in his heart were quickly swept away, and for him, it was just a matter of time, "Didn't you say, this is good-looking?" I also thought it looked good, so I bought it. ”

"How much?"

"Five pennies."

The daughter-in-law of the Xu family looked at her, it is definitely not worth it for five yuan to buy so many threads, five yuan can buy a few bundles of thread, not to mention that the son is a male baby, if it is a girl, I like these and say the past.

But she didn't criticize her, Xu Huaiyang didn't have the habit of spending money indiscriminately on weekdays, it was rare to fall in love with something, if she said too much, it would seem that she was too picky.

"It's not cheap."

"It's not cheap, but mother, look at it, how beautiful it is, I've grown so big, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful multicolored rope."

The daughter-in-law of the Xu family knew that her son liked it very much, and it was only five cents, so she didn't care about it, "What's the use of looking good, wear it today, and when it rains on the sixth day of the new year, you have to cut it off and throw it away." ”

This is a custom, the colorful rope should be thrown on a rainy day, in order to play a role in avoiding evil.

However, Xu Huaiyang has already planned it, and he wants to keep this bracelet.

In a blink of an eye, it is the fifth day of the fifth month of May, early in the morning, Ye Xiaohua hung the paper gourd folded with red paper in advance at the gate, which is also the custom of the Dragon Boat Festival, every household will hang it, and there are many colors, but most of them are mainly red and pink.

Yellow is not allowed to be hung indiscriminately, it is to be hung on the side of the ancestral ranking or to worship the Bodhisattva gods and goddesses at home.

In order to save trouble and celebrate, Ye Xiaohua hung red gourds, although the yard was broken, but they were hung on the side of the door, the color of the gourd was single, but the color of the spike was a lot.

Xiaodouzi looked at the yard with mugwort and paper gourds and clapped her hands, "Sister, our gourd is the best-looking, other people's houses are all one gourd, and you are two together." ”

In fact, the two gourds are also folded with a piece of paper, when I was a child, the dean's mother was ingenious, and she would teach them some handicrafts if she had nothing to do, Ye Xiaohua learned the craft of folding a pair of gourds with her.

I don't know if the dean's mother was prescient, she taught her own skills, and she was able to use them all when she came to this dynasty that did not exist in history.

It's the holiday, Ye Xiaohua plans to make four dishes, stew a chicken, make a pork ribs, and make two vegetarian dishes, while Xiaodouzi can't help much in the kitchen, so she runs to the gate again and again.

Ye Xiaohua really didn't understand what this kid was doing, could it be that he was waiting for someone?

"Little Bean, what are you running?"

Xiaodouzi wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I'm afraid that our gourd has been stolen." ”

After hearing this, Ye Xiaohua really couldn't hold back, and laughed, "You stupid boy, every family has a gourd, who will steal our house, besides, it's only fresh for two days, when it rains, the gourd will collapse and the color will fade." ”

Xiaodouzi shook his head, "No, our gourd is the best, I have to look at it, and it can't be drenched when it rains." ”

"Whatever you want."

However, what Ye Xiaohua didn't expect was that she really let Xiaodouzi say it, Rao is little guy looked at it so closely, but the gourd that had just been hung up was still lost when they were eating.

Xiaodouzi watched it all morning and didn't stop it, angry and aggrieved, and cried for a long time.

Ye Xiaohua coaxed him and wondered, who was so moldy.

Xiaodouzi was really angry this time, and he didn't cry anymore, but he felt that the man would steal it again, and he must sit at the gate and wait.

Anyway, there is nothing to do, it is a big holiday, even if there is work, Ye Xiaohua doesn't want to do it, she sits at the gate with Xiaodouzi, the gourds hanging in the yard and on the ear room are double, and she doesn't know if that person will come again.

"Yo, sister-in-law, look, are those two children my niece and nephew?" The woman twisted her waist and swung her hips, shook the silk handkerchief in her hand, and shouted from afar.
