045 Fame
Aunt Caifeng really treated herself as her own daughter, which made Qu Xiaoqi a little impulsive to recognize her as a godmother.
"Does Siho's sister have a little daughter or grandson?" Qu Xiaoqi remembered the little girl he saw this morning and asked.
Aunt Caifeng was a little stunned when she suddenly heard the title of Xihe's sister, and after reacting for a while, she realized that it was the one who poisoned her own pig with the deserter before, and immediately showed a look of resentment on her face, and said, "That old woman is simply not human!" That is the only flesh and blood left of her son, and his life is as bitter as yours! The old woman beat her a lot because she was a female doll, and once because she didn't eat during the harvest and fell on the grain, the old woman almost didn't beat the little girl to death! ”
didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, Qu Xiaoqi was dumbfounded and didn't continue on this topic.
Anyway, the land will be forcibly rented soon, and it will also make the little girl easier.
After a few words of greeting, Qu Xiaoqi went home, and Aunt Caifeng didn't find out that Meng Yuqing had actually recovered, after all, he followed Qu Xiaoqi quietly as before, without saying a word.
Back home, Qu Xiaoqi suddenly mentioned why Ah Qing was afraid of herself on the day she woke up.
Ah Qing just looked at Qu Xiaoqi with a complicated face, and then said the situation at that time.
said that Qu Xiaoqi had been crying since marriage, and he had long had the idea of seeking death, but he was in a daze at the time and didn't understand it.
After that, the original body ran to the foot of the mountain, and threw himself into the river at the deepest place of the water!
When Ah Qing relied on instinct to save the original body, the original body was already stupid with a high fever.
High fever does not go away, mental retardation is reduced, and aggression is attached.
This situation lasted for about two days, and the aunt did not tell the uncle the seriousness of the matter, but only said that there was a fever and there was no major problem.
It wasn't until Qu Rui couldn't stand the days without Qu Xiaoqi's service and broke into Qu Xiaoqi's room that Qu Xiaoqi returned to normal.
Although it's normal, but the personality has changed drastically, and it can be said that it is the opposite of what it was before.
Ah Qing now still has in her mind the appearance of Qu Xiaoqi, who was recovering from a serious illness and fighting against her aunt, chuckled lightly, and said: "I've actually been wondering why your personality has changed so much after you woke up, but you can't remember the people and things you used to do at all. ”
"Because I'm a youkai, a youkai who will be burned to death by fire."
After chatting for so long, Qu Xiaoqi was a little sleepy, with tiredness in his words, and his eyes were closed.
Ah Qing's hand gently stroked Qu Xiaoqi's hair, and said in a low voice: "Drink to quench your thirst, and be as sweet as food." ”
Obviously, Qu Xiaoqi, who fell asleep with his eyes closed, didn't hear this sentence at all.
"Master, there are already people over there, and it seems that they have begun to suspect the one in the palace."
The corners of Ah Qing's mouth hooked, and said: "Let them go, whether the people in the palace are me or not, it doesn't matter to them at all." ”
The subordinate did not speak, his face was very serious, and he said in a low voice: "If someone finds out here, Madame is afraid that it will be ......."
"I know, I'm measured."
Qu Xiaoqi is now completely accustomed to going to bed early and getting up early, even if there is no rooster crowing, she can wake up before dawn.
Only this time she didn't get up immediately after opening her eyes, and her eyes looked at the chest in front of her with a little haze.
She had a dream in which she dreamed of herself...... It's my own life in my previous life, and my appearance is the same as that I have been familiar with for more than 20 years, but this character is much worse, and I actually sit on the bed and embroider.
She remembers the dream very clearly, stitches and threads, and the pattern seems to be peony flowers.
Sure enough, it's a dream, and it doesn't match reality at all, if she really knows how to embroider...... Then she won't live on embroidery.
When I went to the village chief's house, the village chief had not yet gotten up, apparently because he was tired from the day of supervision.
Qu Xiaoqi stuffed a tael of silver into the hands of the village chief's daughter-in-law, saying that it was to give the village chief his wages for the past few days.
This is real silver, and the village chief's daughter-in-law accepted it with a smile.
Meng Yuqing seemed to be extremely ashamed of this, and looked at Qu Xiaoqi with a displeased face, because her current practice was called bribery.
"What are you staring at me for?"
"Why do you want to bribe officials? Even for petty officials, this will encourage their vices. ”
"Aiding and abetting? There's no way, money can make ghosts grind, and I can't bear to put my shoes on the wolf. ”
What is this? The corners of Meng Yuqing's mouth twitched twice, and she didn't continue to speak.
The village chief was old, and it was impossible to keep up with everyone's footsteps, so Qu Xiaoqi went to rent an ox cart.
It just so happened that the things that made the scales and the pile of fifty catties and twenty catties were also put on the car together, although the ox walked slower, at least it was much easier than a person to carry it.
It didn't take long for the cow to start mooing and refusing to take another step.
Meng Yuqing put his hand on the back of the ox cart, and then pushed the ox cart forward slowly.
Seeing this, a few people who thought they were good also began to follow behind and push the cart, which really made the speed of the cattle a lot faster.
The village chief sat on an ox cart and felt the bumps in the road. Before entering the city, I was also someone else's ox cart, and those roads were used to being walked, and they were very smooth, which was as rugged as it is now.
Fortunately, I arrived at the village before noon, and there were already people at the village gate watching, and when I saw so many people, I ran back to the village at once.
Xu has many people who have already thought about selling pigs, so they will come to the village to watch.
It took Qu Xiaoqi half an hour to convince this group of people that the evaluation of Libra was accurate, and the deviation between the two would not exceed five catties, and Qu Xiaoqi would add five catties to the price on the basis of the measurement.
So in terms of price, Qu Xiaoqi adjusted the price of live pigs to eight copper plates per catty, after all, this includes the weight of bones and internal organs and even pig blood.
In fact, this is much more profitable than selling meat, and most of the pigs are actually eaten by themselves, and they don't expect a pig to sell much.
"Sister, do you collect a hundred catties of pigs? There is something at home that needs money, and I want to sell this pig, you see? ”
Qu Xiaoqi nodded, she is actually much more anxious than selling pigs now, but doing business is to create an illusion for them that there is no such shop after this village.
"This is the head of our village, who came here to testify, and I said before that if you don't want to sell it, we can go to other places to see."
They only received five pigs in this village, because there were no butchers in this village, which was actually quite a lot.
After all, the families in the nearby villages are not so wealthy, and those who can afford to raise pigs are considered big families.
Some people would rather save money to buy a ploughing cow at a high price than buy a pig.
Other villages are much easier to explain, and there will always be onlookers who are willing to watch the excitement, and they have long known the principle of the scale.
As Qu Xiaoqi thought, the twenty pigs only went to 30 villages and went home, and the village chief and Qu Xiaoqi signed an agreement with the seller, which was clearly written in black and white.
These include how many catties a pig is and how many taels of silver are collected.
This is a good income for the farmer, and if you save more, you can buy a calf.
This made people who didn't have pigs envious, and Qu Xiaoqi asked her if she would accept pigs before leaving.
"After there are no more pigs, we will come again, if you want to sell pigs in the future, you can go to Linxi Village to find me." To live, the price of death will be much lower. ”
When they heard the name Linxi Village, they were all stunned, Linxi Village was much poorer than them, and someone would waste so much effort to buy pigs!
"You won't be the Zhang butcher of Linxi Village, will you? I had a brother who went to Fengshui City once and said that there was a kind of meat made of meat that was particularly delicious, and he took it to the capital to sell it! Isn't that your family's? ”
Butcher Zhang didn't expect that someone would recognize him, and hurriedly replied yes.
Now Qu Xiaoqi's name spread here, although the main transmission is still Zhang Butcher, I will still mention this strange woman who looks weak but is presiding over the overall situation.
Even from the village to the nearby city, some sons and sisters came to Fengshui City, which really brought a lot of benefits to Fengshui City.
The main name is spread to the capital, they have not been to the capital, but they can come to taste the food in the capital, so that they can have some proud conversation among their colleagues.
It's a pity that when they came to Fengshui City, Qu Xiaoqi also began to be hungry for marketing.
Let's talk about it first, Qu Xiaoqi watched the five people struggling to carry a pig, and finally compromised and put the worthless scales at the gate of the village, and put two bundles of sturdy pigs on the ox cart.
It seems that one more person is much better, but the speed of progress is really not complimentary.
When I arrived at the village, it was the middle of the night.
These pigs can only be put to Aunt Caifeng first, and let them continue to work tomorrow.
"It's really hard for you, just come to work tomorrow afternoon, let those people do it first, and I'll pay you tomorrow."
After sending the people away, Aunt Caifeng spoke: "There is a quarrel in the village today, saying that they don't work, don't delay them to earn money or something." ”
These were expected by Qu Xiaoqi, and he said: "It's okay, I'll take a look tomorrow, I'm divided according to the progress of the project, not according to the head." ”
This has been mentioned to them a long time ago, although the first day was given 25 wen, it is because a team has not passed the run-in period, and the work on the surface is almost the same.
I thought that this situation would last for three days, but I didn't expect that as soon as she and the village chief left the next day, someone would be revealed.
The next morning, she called at the door of Xihe's sister.
Although Meng Yuqing feels a little embarrassed, he must support 100% of what his daughter-in-law wants to do.
This is the method seen in the script.
Since most of his subordinates are unmarried, and the one who follows him now is unreliable, he has to learn how to please his daughter-in-law through the script.
It's just that there are some things that she really can't do, and sometimes she will get goosebumps when she sees him.
Why are today's scholars like this...... Hey, don't be a man.
