Chapter 5 First Encounter with Shao Cong

Jiaxin didn't expect that the first person to come to the door and ask her to cut her hair was Jiacheng's friend. His mother led him, and when he first entered the yard, Jiaxin greeted him. After entering the house, he casually exchanged a few words, and the other party explained his intention: "Yesterday Jiacheng went to my house, this little rabbit cub saw Jiacheng's hair cut smooth and slippery, so he had to cut the same, you say, how can I cut it." I'm not coming to you, Jiaxin, I'm a little tired..."

"Third aunt, it's not impossible to cut your hair, but if I say I'll take money, will you still cut it?" Jia Xin said this, and her heart beat a drum.

"How much?" The third aunt looked at Jiaxin and wanted to fight for some benefits for herself: "Jiaxin, look, these are all neighbors in the street, and they are relatives, so don't take money!" ”

"Bunny, you say that too!" Lu Dingwu was really angry, and now he finally understands where Lu Jiaxin's way of making money comes from, it turned out to be to squeeze these fellow villagers, which makes his old face go where to go, and he will not look up in the future.

Jiaxin turned her head to look at Lu Dingwu, and said righteously: "I can't say anything, what I sell is my craft, I rely on my craft to eat, what's wrong." It's better than someone selling me! After speaking, without waiting for Lu Dingwu to make a difficulty, he turned back to the third aunt and said: "You have also seen my craft, third aunt, you also know that there is only one hair cutter in the town, and I don't charge much for two yuan, one dollar!" Third aunt, think about it, this snow is uncertain, and it is freezing on this day, you really ran to the town, even if you go, there are so many people in the town, it is difficult to say whether you can line up. On weekdays, you can cut your child's hair by yourself, this is the New Year, when you visit relatives and friends, your child's hair is gnawed by the dog, you also feel ugly! ”

"You're talking about Li Jiaxin, then you have to cut it for me!"

"Don't worry!"

After the third aunt left, Jiaxin held the dollar tightly, she was extremely excited, she knew that she must be busy next.

Three days later, people came to the door one after another, and the children said that they had seen Jiacheng and the children of the third aunt in the east of the village with a good haircut; Girls her age saw her hairstyle; The eldest girl to be married said that she saw the hairstyle of the eldest aunt and the second aunt; That middle-aged woman, she saw the sample from Mu Chunhua!

Sure enough, this kind of propaganda really worked.

Everyone is looking for her, firstly, they really can't get out, and secondly, they naturally recognize her craftsmanship.

Jiaxin is very busy, but before she starts, she has to tell others the price. Cutting hair is a dollar, and perming hair is set according to the length. Mu Chunhua became a small worker for her, washing people's hair full-time. Even so, every night, she was tired and had a sore back, after all, she was the only master and everyone had to rely on her. What's more, most of the people who cut their hair now have a stop for a day.

When the time came to the tenth day of the lunar month, Jiaxin counted the money, and it was less than a thousand! That's not a long way from 5,000 dollars. Their village is not small, five or six hundred people, but not everyone will come to her for a haircut. From rebirth to now, it has been half a month. If it goes on like this, it will definitely not be enough! Although it is also a custom to cut hair on the second day of February, it is already spring at that time, and the ice and snow are melting... She's not the only barber who can't do it.

The next day, there were a few perms in the hair. There are also a lot of hair cuts, Jiaxin's tense mood is not good, tired of a day, send off the last guest, Jiaxin fell asleep!

On the third day, there was an uninvited guest at home, the girl was handsome, and her dress was slightly more fashionable than the people in the village, saying that she wanted to go to the county town before the New Year to get her hair done, but the snow was endless. She happened to have a cousin who was from the same village as Jiaxin in Lujiaao, and then she knew that there was a barber in Lujiaao with such good skills!

Jia Xin smiled, and sure enough, God began to favor her.

Jiaxin chatted while helping her with her hair.

"Sister, which village are you from, it's not far away, it's snowy, you have to wear more!"

"When I walk, it's not so cold, and I'm sweating!"

Jia Xin smiled: "Sister, which village are you from?" How far do you have to go? ”

"I'm from Bai Jiawa!"

Bai Jiawa! The man Jiaxin is going to marry is Bai Jiawa's!

After her hair was permed, Jiaxin said: "Sister, you go back and help me publicize it, but I will give a discount to anyone who comes to your village to get hair!" ”

The girl said, "Don't worry, they all said that if I make it look good, they will definitely come!" ”

Today, Mu Chunhua went to his aunt's house to help make rice cakes, so he didn't help at home, and when he came back at noon, Mu Chunhua took off his apron and said without taking a sip of water: "Jiaxin, your aunt asked if you could go to her house to cut her hair, and you also know that she can't get out of the house with that body!" ”

By this time the ancient bell had struck three times, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"Okay, I'll be over in a minute!"

The aunt is the wife of the principal of the town's elementary school. is also Lu Dingwu's cousin-in-law, only in her forties, but she is paralyzed and paralyzed in bed! In the 90s, hemiplegia was difficult to cure, and since there was no death, I no longer sought medical treatment everywhere.

The aunt wiped her tears and complained to Jiaxin: "I've been paralyzed for three years, and your uncle is disgusted with me day by day, I know." If it weren't for the fact that someone from the family was coming in the past two days, I wouldn't have been able to get my hair the same! Anyway, I don't have a few years to live. ”

Jiaxin thought that the guests who came must be important to her, otherwise, the aunt would not attach so much importance to her image.

"Don't say that!" Jiaxin thought of herself, and she could empathize with her aunt's situation. If it weren't for luck, perhaps her grave would have been overgrown with weeds by now: "If you can live, don't think about dying, although sometimes it is painful to live." ”

"Jiaxin, your mother said that you seem to be a different person, I still don't believe it! Now I believe it, your dad is not doing this well, you must not be stimulated! ”

Jiaxin didn't speak, just turned around and went to the outhouse water tank to get water, first wash the aunt's hair, not every family had shampoo at that time, Jiaxin looked around, only to find a bag of alkali in the cupboard, and then she washed her hair!

Just about to move the scissors, a black car was parked outside the gate, at that time, what a rare object this thing is, Jiaxin looked at it a few more times, and then saw that a boy who got out of the car, just sixteen or seventeen, entered the house with a big bag in his hand!

The aunt exclaimed: "Congcong, why are you here, didn't you say tomorrow?" ”

Apparently this is the guest in the mouth of the great aunt!

"Auntie, the snow stopped today, and my mother asked me to send you some New Year's goods. She knew that the snow was closing the mountain, and her brother-in-law was busy, so she must not have bought anything! "This boy named Cong Cong speaks sonorously and powerfully, his words are correct and round, and his length is also very standard!

"Quick, roast on the stove... It's so cold outside! Auntie beckoned. Then he said to Jiaxin: "Jiaxin, go and help pour a glass of water, you said that your uncle is not here, and I don't know where he died!" ”

The boy pulled over a stool, sat down by the stove, reached out and roasted, and then a glass of water appeared in front of him. He took it and held it in his hand and took a sip quietly. didn't say a word to Jiaxin, not even a thank you.

The aunt introduced: "This is my sister's son, Shao Cong!" ”

This is obviously to tell Jiaxin, but Jiaxin didn't answer, just said: "Auntie, I'll get it for you quickly, there are still several people waiting at home!" ”
