Chapter 6 Making Money Together
Chu Junxi told her cheap father and mother about inviting Qi Ran to help, thinking that with their current situation, they would definitely hesitate or even object, but she didn't expect her father and mother to be particularly reasonable.
"The life of the mother and son of the Qi family is very difficult, since we are living better now than before, it is nothing to have the ability to help!"
Although Chu Junxi crossed over to this poor home, she was not sad at all, she really liked it more than the lonely half of her life in her previous life. Moreover, her father and mother in this life are the best father and mother in the world!
After dinner, Chu Junxi began to think about what the dime of silver could be used for, although it was not much, but it was a huge amount of money for the Chu family. Originally, Chu Junxi wanted to redeem his mother's bracelet, but the money was still not enough. In the end, it was Chu's mother, who has always been cautious, who made the decision and bought a new set of clothes for everyone!
Chu Junxi looked at the clothes full of puddings on his body, and felt that his mother's proposal was very good!
At this time, the Qi family was also a little different because of the appearance of Chu Junxi.
"Ah Ran, what do you think of the girl who came to the house today? The Chu family is also too busy to take care of themselves, but the kid thinks that he can help us, which is not the same as the rumors. "Mother Qi liked Chu Junxi very much when she saw it, although those eyes looked different, they were very transparent, and they were not as unbearable as outsiders said.
Qi Ran pondered for a moment, and then spoke. "The rumors are not credible. Mother, I'm in charge today, you won't be angry, right? ”
"Mother is not angry, in this world, it is also a good thing to have someone to support each other, but you remember not to take the lead in everything. You've had very little contact with people before, and that kid is a man who can let your guard down, but don't expose your secrets easily. Knowing too much would be a disservice to the child. ”
"I see." Qi dyed his head, but his thoughts somehow drifted away.
"Rest early, you will go to the Chu family early tomorrow morning, don't let the girl run so hard!" In the past, Mother Qi would not be willing for her son to risk exposing himself, but a long time ago, she had met Mother Chu, a timid but kind village woman, and today she saw Chu Junxi again, and she believed that the Chu family was trustworthy.
Early the next morning, Qi Ran set off to Chu's house, and when Chu's father just went out, he saw a person sitting at the door, and he was almost startled. "Huh? You are...... Qi family in the next village? “
In fact, Father Chu had never seen Qi Ran, but yesterday he heard Chu Junxi say something about Qi Ran, and he thought that it would only be this child who would squat at the door of his house early in the morning.
When Qi Ran saw Father Chu, he immediately got up and bent down to signal.
"You, you wait a minute, I'll call Xi'er."
At this time, Chu Junxi was still sleeping with his head covered, although the ancient people had no nightlife and had to go to bed very early, Chu Junxi still couldn't get up in the morning.
Qi Ran was waiting quietly outside the door, and when Chu Junxi heard that the good-looking little brother was coming, he instantly bounced up from the bed and quickly tidied himself up. The well was in the courtyard outside, so Chu Junxi didn't even have a chance to wash his face and was about to go to meet people.
"Brother Aran, why are you here so early? Well, you go sit down for a while, wait for me! ”
Qi Ran looked at Chu Junxi's panicked appearance and felt very interesting, but his face was still unfazed, and he entered the house obediently. Perhaps because of the similarity of their own circumstances, the Chu family was very enthusiastic about Qi Ran's arrival, and even the two little ones entangled him.
Chu Junxi quickly washed up and went back to the house. "Brother Aran, I discussed with my father and mother yesterday, and our family has no extra money now, so I thought that I would use the vegetables harvested in the field as your salary for the time being. Don't worry, when we make more money in the future, we will still give you money, is that okay? ”
After all, the vegetables in the field are also limited, and although Qi Ran agreed to help yesterday, he may not be willing to agree to such conditions.
Qi Ran is naturally not a person who cares about everything, and the current situation at home is really difficult, and doing anything else is also being suppressed, so it is better to be with the Chu family, even if there is no money, at least the mood is good.
Seeing Qi Ran smiling and nodding, Chu Junxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then I couldn't help but think that it was so unfair that such an angel-like little brother would be spurned because he was mute and illegal!
"Brother Aran, let me take you to see my family's land, our cabbage is growing well! In another month, you can sell it one after another. ”
Chu Junxi took Qi Ran to the cabbage field, and the cabbage has been planted for a month, although it is still small, but it has begun to take shape. Chu Junxi just watered, and he was already very tender.
Qi Ran gestured to Chu Junxi a few times, but suddenly remembered that Chu Junxi shouldn't understand, but he couldn't speak, and he suddenly felt a little melancholy.
"Hmm...... Brother Aran, do you know how to write? Why don't you write to me? Chu Junxi looked around, found a dead branch and handed it to Qi Ran. Aunt Qi looks very much like a lady in distress from a big family, and Qi Ran also has a faint bookish anger, she intuitively feels that he must be able to write.
Qi Ran took the branch, but looked at Chu Junxi with some surprise, the neighboring villages are not rich, and they rarely let their children go to school, the Chu family is all white, and there is no money to enter the private school in the town, how can Chu Junxi know how to read?
Only then did Chu Junxi realize that he was reckless, so he had to make it up. "Actually, after I was injured last time, I couldn't read and write, but I could only read and not write. I didn't tell my parents about this, I just told you, this is our secret! ”
Anyway, Qi Ran can't speak, and Chu Junxi is not afraid of him saying it, but this reason is really not good, and she is not sure if Qi Ran will believe it.
Of course, Qi Ran didn't believe it, but he didn't want to ask about various reasons, everyone had their own secrets.
Pick up the dead branches, dye them on the ground and start writing. "Cabbage, storage, pickles." Afraid that Chu Junxi wouldn't be able to read complex sentences, Qi Ran wrote a few simple words.
"That's right! Cabbage doesn't make much money if it is sold directly, and making pickles is not only easy to store, but also can be sold at a higher price! Brother Aran, you are so smart! Although Chu Junxi's eyes were open, he didn't have any business acumen, and when he was said by Qi Ran, he suddenly opened his mouth.
Chu Junxi felt more and more that his thighs were too right, no matter what happened to Qi Ran in the future, at least for now, the two of them could make money together to tide over the predicament.
Qi Ran looked at the cunning that flashed in Chu Junxi's eyes, and he wanted to understand this little girl who was regarded as a "monster" more and more.
