Chapter 23: Making Money for the First Time

Master Feng sighed lightly, "Needless to say, you can come with me." ”

Master Feng asked people to inspect the goods, and made sure that the quality was good, and after the scales were settled according to the market price, a large cart of ramie was exchanged for 300 yuan.

Bo Zhong saw the eldest sister put a heavy string of money into the money bag, and his eyes were red with excitement, and when he got to a place where there was no one, Bo Zhong jumped up directly, pulling Yuan Ning's arm and shaking it constantly, "Eldest sister, we have made money!" We're making money! ”

"You stupid boy," Yuan Ning touched his head, "I don't know how much money we think we've made!" But a few hundred dollars excite you like this? ”

Bo Zhong smirked, "This is our own hard work to get money!" ”

When the child is growing up, the reason why the height does not seem to match the actual age before is because the nutrition can't keep up.

Especially when Yuan Ning was drawing, he grew half a head tall in just two or three months, and Bo Zhong's height was obviously taller than before, and his pants were shorter.

After getting the money, Yuan Ning took Bo Zhong to the market, found a place to sell cloth heads, bought three catties of cloth for fifteen wen and one catty, and bought a bunch of needles and threads, and spent fifteen yuan on the side of the road to buy five small meat cakes and six baked cakes, and then went home happily.

The sister and brother were reluctant to eat meatloaf on the way, and the two ate a roast cake separately.

Back in the village, go and return the ox cart first, and then go home with a full harvest.

The county seat is far away from their Xiaozhangzhuang, and they left early and came back at dusk.

Because it was the first time for his brothers and sisters to enter the city, Zhong Ling and Shu Yu were not very relieved, and they couldn't eat well on this day, and they couldn't sit still.

Only Ji Xiu, who was still ignorant, was having fun in the small cart.

Shu Yu sat at the door of his house picking beans, looking up at the road from time to time.

In fact, at this time, after sunset, the weather was still a little cold, and after Zhong Ling finished cooking, he shouted to him in the yard: "Come back to the yard and wait!" Then he pushed Ji Xiu into the house and fed her rice soup first.

Because the rice soup has been boiling thick, Ji Xiu has also grown very fast in the past two months, white and clean, and she is a beautiful little doll.

Zhong Ling was about to be unable to hold her, so most of the time she was asked to lie in the car, only when she was bored, Zhong Ling would take her out, but she was only sitting and hugging, otherwise her arm would be sore after a while.

Ji Xiu snorted a few times, he was about to pee.

Zhong Ling hurriedly picked her up and walked to the edge of the urine bucket to pee, then cleaned her up and put her back back, poking at her tender little face, "You lie down obediently, second sister go and see the fire in the stove." ”

Ji Xiu kicked his legs and babbled a few times.

Zhong Ling smiled and walked out quickly, and when he walked out of the hall door, he heard Shu Yu shouting: "The eldest sister and the eldest brother are back!" He put the basket of beans on the ground and ran away.

There were people in the village who had dogs, and they were afraid that the dogs would knock over the basket and spoil the grain, so Zhong Ling trotted over and took the basket away before turning around and going to the door.

At this time, Yuan Ning and Bo Zhong had already come to the door with baskets on their backs, and Shu Yu turned into a leg pendant with An Ning.

Zhong Ling reprimanded: "Eldest sister is already very tired, Shu Yu, you are sensible!" ”

Shu Yu stuck out his tongue, raised his hand to help Yuan Ning hold the basket, and shouted at Zhong Ling: "I'll help the eldest sister carry the basket!" ”

Yuan Ning raised his hand and touched Shu Yu's little head, put the basket down, and then said to Zhong Ling: "I bought some cloth, let's put the cloth together and find someone to make two clothes." If there are many, you can also put together a list. ”

Zhong Ling didn't understand: "What list?" ”

"It's the big kang sheet on our kang!" Yuan Ning smiled.

Their house has a total of three rooms, and the hall is used for multiple purposes, which is both a living room and a dining room, and can also be used as a kitchen.

The East House is a room where families sleep, and the West House is stacked with household clutter.

There are also two modest west wings, which are used to store grain and farm tools. On the edge of the west wing, in the gap between the main room and the main house, a shed was built, and two stoves, one high and one low, were built, which was the kitchen.

The roof of the shed is only barely sheltered from the wind and rain, and it is impossible to cook in the bad weather of strong wind and rain.

In fact, their yard is not small, but because they are poor, they can't afford to build a house, so most of them are empty, but they are also planted with various vegetables.

But when the days are a little more comfortable, Yuan Ning thought, she still has to clean up the Westhouse, how can she be a big girl and sleep with her younger brothers all the time?

But for the time being, we have to make do with it first.

Because it is unrealistic for Kang Da to want to make a big mattress and a big quilt the size of Kang, so Yuan Ning asked the old patriarch to make two quilts for Zhang Luo's cotton and cloth, and the original covers at home were spread under his body.

Yuan Ning and Zhong Ling covered a quilt together, and Bo Zhong and Shu Yu covered a quilt together.

Xiao Jixiu himself has a separate futon, the mattress is naturally spliced together by the previous rabbit skin, and the quilt is a chicken feather quilt, worried that the chicken feathers will come out, so Yuan Ning deliberately left some cotton wool to make a sandwich, sandwiching the chicken feathers in the middle, and the two layers of cotton wool can also play a role in blocking the wind.

After I tried it out, it was indeed warmer than an ordinary quilt.

Spell a kang list and lay it, so you don't need to dismantle and wash the kang mattress frequently.

These cloths are irregular, some are larger and some are smaller, the larger ones can be used to make clothes, and the smaller ones can be cut into triangular blocks to be spliced, as long as the color is matched, it is not ugly.

Zhong Ling had already quickly figured this out, nodded with a smile, and quickly changed the topic: "You've been busy all day, are you all tired?" Wash your hands and eat! ”

This little girl is barely enough to go to school, but when her brother and sister are not at home, she is the head of the family, quite stable and capable.

Yuan Ning raised his hand and touched her head, and said to her: "There are meatloaf in the basket that I bought with your eldest brother in the county town, you take it and heat it up, and eat it with Shu Yu." ”

Xiao Jixiu has just turned five months old, and he can still only eat rice soup.

Zhong Ling's first sentence asked, "Have you all eaten?" ”

"Hmm!" Yuan Ning and Bo Zhong nodded in unison, "We ate it on the way, and I brought it back for you to taste." ”

Zhong Ling didn't doubt him, and happily took the meatloaf to heat it, saying that it was a meatloaf, but in fact, it was the size of Xiao Jixiu's fist, Zhong Ling and Shuyu ate half of it, and their stomachs still felt empty.

Yuan Ning and Bo Zhong had already washed their hands, the two of them put the dining table in the center of the hall, went to the kitchen to bring in the food, and the four sisters and brothers settled a dinner by the light before dark.

As for the rest of the pancakes, they will be saved for tomorrow morning to make vegetable soup and stew.
