Chapter Twenty-Eight: Change
She is now avoiding Gu Yu, a man. These days, I don't know which line is wrong, and from time to time I throw her flattering eyes, this kind of seduction ~ is not something that her little weak chicken can bear.
Coming back from fishing with his eldest brother again, looking at the more and more small fry in the tank, Xia Ting was a little worried.
Although it can be air-dried, you can't eat it all if you have too much. If you sell it, the meat is too small to be worth a few dollars.
Because both brothers are busy with their own affairs, she hasn't gone to the town to sell jam these days, and the second batch is almost ready, and there are still some left in the first batch.
Today, Gu Yu also finished the carpentry work and prepared to deliver the goods to the village chief. I happened to have time to accompany her to the village to sell sour jam. Originally, she said that she could come by herself, but she was unanimously opposed by the two brothers. The reason is very simple, it is nothing more than that she is still a newcomer in the village, and I am afraid that she will not be able to cope with the three aunts and seven women in the village.
Xia Ting wanted to say that just the two of them, if they were looking for fault, they wouldn't be able to say anything. Speaking of which, they are the ones who suffer no more.
Moreover, she is so crazy that even she is afraid of herself.
So, she didn't think so. But the opposition was ineffective, and he could only succumb to obscenity.
Xia Ting stood next to Gu Yu with a straw hat, even if he wore a hat, his height was at his neck, and he still had to raise his head high when he was close.
Gu Yu's favorite thing is that when this little woman occasionally looks up at him, her eyes are bright and she seems to be able to speak. Such a height with it also poked the soft part of his heart, as if one finger could round and pinch her.
Of course, she can't let her know this kind of thought, otherwise she will have to blow up. Although he likes to watch it, it's not good to be angry.
After waiting for a while, I heard footsteps approaching inside, and then a woman's voice came: "Come on, come on, don't worry." ”
When he opened the door, Xia Ting carefully looked at the middle-aged woman, although there were inevitably traces of time on her face, but from the perspective of temperament and silhouette, she could still see that she was a beauty when she was young. At this age, there is no doubt that she should be the wife of the village chief.
When she looked at others, they were also observing her, and when they saw Xia Ting carefully hiding his eyes, they smiled gently.
"Erwa, the cabinet was done so quickly! Come on in, thank you. ”
"Well, Aunt Gu. I don't know if you're satisfied? ”
Gu Yu put the cabinet in the living room, and not long after, the village chief also came out, and by the way, he also gave Gu Yu the money.
"Hahaha, second baby, this kid is good, I heard that you also sell sour jam, you will be blessed in the future!"
Gu Yu smiled and said nothing, but the light in his eyes clearly told people: I agree with your point of view.
Looking at their communication, their family should have a good relationship with the village chief. Xia Ting is also an interesting person, and when he heard the village chief talk about sour jam, he continued: "Where, thanks to the village chief and Aunt Gu's care." We just made another batch and planned to sell it. If you don't dislike it, you can try it, village chief. ”
"That's embarrassing, you're also in business." Aunt Gu hurriedly smiled and pushed away.
Xia Ting took out a can for Aunt Gu absently. Aunt Gu pushed it, but she couldn't take it after glancing at the village chief's eyes. Aunt Gu took out the copper coin from her pocket and signaled that she wanted to give the money, but Xia Ting and they would definitely not accept it, and after another "entanglement", Aunt Gu gave up.
"There's not much money, besides, if you find the second brother to do things, you also do business for us." Thank you that it's too late. It's just a little bit of caution on the part of the juniors. Xia Ting's mouth seemed to be smeared with oil, and he praised the two elders like a crooked, making them feel good in their hearts.
"I said, Ah Ting, although your sour jam is an ordinary commodity, it is different from others, and it has a special taste, which makes people want to stop. It's better than the peach blossoms, and it's better to eat. After Aunt Gu put the sour jam away, she came out and took Xia Ting's hand and said, "Although it is more expensive than the Peach Blossom Family, many people still like your family." ”
Xia Ting smiled, "Hmm. Although it is ordinary, there is a way inside, and it is not as simple as imagined. It's okay, it's normal. ”
The village chief's wife actually told her that someone imitated her and robbed her of her business, and comforted her. But she had already thought of this result, but she had the golden finger of "skillful hands", as long as the quality of life was better, she would buy her over time.
After all, the price she opened was not high, and it was basically a small profit but quick turnover. As for how the Peach Blossom family is cheaper than them, it is not cheaper, at most one or two pennies, and those who have a little more money on hand will not care. After all, buying a can can can be eaten for a long time.
"Ah Ting, this jar is also very interesting. It's much better, it's generous. "Aunt Gu has praised her many times. The more I look at this newcomer of unknown origin, the more I like it. When chatting with my wife at night, it is also a strong compliment. The previous misunderstandings and vigilance have all been dispelled.
"Hmm. Their family was nothing, but it's a pity that they have relatives who are not angry, otherwise how could this be. However, now having a daughter-in-law is also competitive, which can be regarded as a blessing. I hope it gets better in the future. The village chief sighed.
Back then, he and the father of the eldest baby and the second baby were good brothers. It's a pity that the hero was short of breath and left early.
Let's go back to Xia Ting. After coming out of the village chief's house, Xia Ting took a deep breath, as if he had expelled all the turbidity, "Ah, I was nervous just now." Fortunately, Aunt Gu and the village chief are both relatively talkative people. ”
Gu Yu touched her head and said, "Hmm." The village chief takes good care of us, and the village chief is righteous, and Aunt Gu is also very kind, so you don't have to be nervous. ”
Xia Ting stuck out his tongue and muttered, "It's not the first time I've seen you, it's like making a good impression." ”
In fact, Xia Ting knew that she was not popular in the village. After all, she is an outsider, unidentified, and seems to break the trajectory of their lives. And people here get married in neighboring villages, and they know the roots. That's why she lives so carefully, hoping to make a good impression on the other party.
"Stupid. My eldest brother and I will not abandon you. Knowing her concerns, my heart ached slightly, and I couldn't help but comfort her. It was their lack of ability that made her so insecure.
Although her arrival at the beginning made their family a little uncomfortable, even alienated. After these days of getting along, he felt that from the beginning he thought this girl was a little interesting, to now he doesn't know how to say it. Tease her, watch her laugh, and he will be happy.
Xia Ting took 30 cans of sour jam to the village market to sell, and when everyone saw her coming, they all stepped forward to buy it. And I have to say that the porcelain jar is quite distinctive, which makes people see it at a glance.
This time, the speed of selling is a bit slow, and it is already noon when it is sold out.
This was expected by Xia Ting, after all, they had competitors, she had only sold 12 cans before, and many people had never eaten her.
Now that I sell more, shop around, and naturally I can eat who is better. Business should be better in the future. It's just that she didn't expect that the first person to compete with her was actually the Peach Blossom family. I was busy with things for a few days, and I didn't have much contact with the people in the village, but I didn't expect this to happen. This peach blossom family is really interesting enough, the daughter is interesting, and the family is not too reckless.
After all, in the countryside, ordinary people have a simple personality and will not steal other people's business. But the Peach Blossom family obviously did it on purpose.
Anyway, 240 Wen has arrived~ In addition to the 200 Wen porcelain jar money, I also made a net profit of 40 Wen. The remaining 70 cans should be full of demand in the village, and the villagers can eat what they bought for a few days, and the rest can be sold in the town in the later days.
"Ah Ting! You're here too, so I'll just say why it's so lively here. ”
Xia Ting turned his head to see that Chunhua was walking towards them with an empty basket.
"What did you sell early in the morning?"
Chunhua picked the vegetable leaves in the basket and raised them, and said, "I just planted some vegetables at home, but I didn't finish eating them, and I didn't have many of them, so I took them out and sold them for 1 Wen is 1 Wen." What about you? Come and sell sour jam? ”
Xia Ting nodded, "Have you finished eating, I still have it at home." ”
Chunhua rolled her eyes and said, "You are stupid, take it out and sell it, why do you give us so much, ask for money." Besides, how can you eat it so quickly. ”
Xia Ting took Chunhua's hand and said with a smile: "You are not an outsider, besides, this thing still has a credit for you." ”
Isn't it, the first batch of sour fruits also lost to Chunhua to take her to the secret base to have so many.
"By the way, I cooked a new dish, I don't know if I like it or not? Will you go to my house and get some back? Xia Ting remembered the pig he bought a few days ago, bought a lot, cleaned it for a long time, and some of the ones that had not been left for a long time were cooked, and some were air-dried.
Chunhua was a little embarrassed, "No, it's not right." ”
Xia Ting forcefully pulled her in the direction of home, "Don't worry, it's not worth a few dollars." Besides, your family gave us a lot of things before. Be polite to us. ”
Chunhua thought about it and laughed with relief. took the initiative to take Xia Ting's hand.
Gu Yu didn't speak on the side, almost the two brothers would be like this. In front of outsiders, they are all relatively silent, Gu Yu is better, but it is also an estranged politeness.
Xia Ting made the large intestine of the pig, because it was braised red, and it couldn't be seen after it was processed.
"Wow, it smells so good. But what is it? "I was obviously enjoying it on my face, but I was a little hesitant when I saw that. Déjà vu?
"Oh, don't worry about anything, you can eat first. Our family ate cutely. Xia Ting didn't want to explain to her at this time, and he definitely wouldn't eat it if he knew.
Xia Ting shoved into her mouth and looked at her expectantly. "Delicious, delicious?!"
Chunhua went from the bitter hatred on her face at the beginning to the slowly unfolding of her face, her eyes shining. She mumbled, "Well, it's a good time......"
Xia Ting's heart was full of pride when he heard the satisfactory answer. Hurriedly made one for her to take home.
"Then you can tell me what it is."
Xia Ting smiled and said, "Ah, the pig is in the water, and what you are giving is the pig's large intestine." ”
Chunhua choked for a moment, turned her head to the other side and coughed, and after finishing, she looked at Xia Ting's innocent eyes and said admiringly: "Xia Ting, there is really you." ”
The two of them were playing in the kitchen, Gu Yu was sorting out the rice seedlings, preparing to help the eldest brother plant the rice seedlings together in the afternoon.
"Oh no, no, no! Something happened! ”
