As soon as the winter solstice passes, the weather gets colder and colder, and even the sun rarely appears.

Fortunately, Jiangxi's bacon and sausages have basically been dried and hung in the house.

The day after the winter solstice, because she had just eaten a leg of mutton the night before, Jiang Xi was not particularly afraid of the cold, thinking that the time she had agreed with the blacksmith had arrived, she went to the blacksmith's house to get the copper furnace back.

When he went out, Yuan Xiu asked if he would simply let him go, what if there was such a big snow outside, what if he caught a cold.

Jiang Xi shook her head, and when she thought of the face of the blacksmith's daughter-in-law, she had a bad premonition.

If Yuan Xiu is allowed to go, it will make people cheat hard.

She still has to go by herself in this matter.

I went to the gate and walked along the main road to the blacksmith's house, there was actually a shortcut, but the path was covered in wind and snow, and if you were not careful, you might slip.

The blacksmith's house was not far from the entrance of the village, and Jiangxi walked over and knocked on the courtyard door.

After a while, a scolding voice sounded: "Who is this cold day!" ”

The door was still opened, and it was the blacksmith's daughter-in-law who opened the door, she glanced at Jiang Xi and pouted.

"Come in."

There was a pile of blacksmith's things in the courtyard, and there was also a charcoal fire in the house, and the blacksmith was in this room, and beside him was a delicate copper furnace, which Jiang Xi wanted.

Seeing Jiang Xi coming, the blacksmith immediately stood up.

"Little Miss Jiang, you're here! I've already made what you want, so come and check it out. ”

The words fell, and before Jiang Xi could lift his feet, he heard the blacksmith's daughter-in-law snort: "This thing, what is there to check, do we still have to do it messily." Just doing this, I don't know how much material and charcoal fire it cost, that bellows, the old lady's arm is going to be broken, just to make this, what else to check, do you dare to do this or what! ”

The blacksmith glanced at his daughter-in-law dissatisfied, "You can't say a word." ”

"Less? Why should I say less, it took so many things to make this thing, I don't say it, can she know about it! Anyway, I don't care, this thing has cost us so many things, and I have to give a silver tael to say the least! ”

The blacksmith's daughter-in-law finally told her ultimate purpose.

When the blacksmith heard this, he was excited and was about to speak, but her daughter-in-law jerked her arm and forbade him to speak.

Jiang Xi didn't care about the interaction between the two people, she took the copper furnace, and it was still a little heavy in her hand, and the workmanship was not bad, and it was all copper.

Putting the copper furnace back, Jiang Xi turned around, a smile gently tugged at the corner of his mouth, and asked, "What did you just say?" How much silver? ”

"One or two!" The blacksmith's daughter-in-law replied first.

"Oh."

Raise your feet and head straight towards the door.

She is indeed satisfied with this thing, but a tael of silver? This is simply treating her as a big fool in the pit.

Sure enough, it was right not to let Yuan Xiu come over, otherwise he would not have been fooled by this woman, thinking that he really spent a tael of silver to let the blacksmith do this.

You must know how much it costs to eat a meal in a restaurant in the town, and their family is usually more than ten yuan, which is already a lot of money.

One or two silver, how many meals do they have to eat, spend one or two to buy a tool for eating, her brain is caught by the door.

Now many people can only earn two or three cents of silver a month, and this woman can only be one or two when she opens her mouth, and she can't afford to provoke her.

Jiang Xi's face price was not cut, and he was about to leave directly, and the blacksmith was suddenly anxious.

In order to make this thing, he had spent a lot of money to buy a lot of raw materials before, if this river was gone, just relying on those fixed money, he wouldn't even be able to get his book back, and these days of work would be in vain.

You know, if it's to make other farm tools or something, if this person doesn't want it, forget it, he can sell it to other families, and maybe he can make a fixed amount of money. But this copper furnace, who will want it, and it can't be loaded with things, and I don't know what the Jiang family wants to do with this.

"Wait a minute!" Ignoring his daughter-in-law's pull, the blacksmith hurriedly ran to Jiang Xi's side and explained, "Jiang Xi, this copper furnace can't ask for those money, although this brass is a little more expensive, but the whole thing is made up, at most, it's a penny of silver, or not so much." ”

"What! You coward, how much did you just say? One penny of silver, you are being a good person, you, the material cost of this thing is more than three coins of silver, you only need one penny, you want people to empty our house to be happy, right?

Anyway, I'll put my words here today, one or two silver, not a penny! If you can't afford it, you can leave me now! ”

Jiangxi didn't say a word and left directly.

When she was gone, the blacksmith sat down with a squat on his ass, ignoring the snow on the steps.

"You loser, you, you, if this thing can't be sold, you take it and sell it."

His daughter-in-law didn't care how excited he was, went straight back to the house, and closed the door.

This copper furnace, she doesn't have to worry about selling.

The Jiang family was willing to spend a deposit of 20 wen to make this thing, but they were still in such a hurry at the time, and today they came to get it as soon as it was set, which clearly means that the Jiang family needs this unsightly thing very much.

The Jiang family continued to need this thing, and they would definitely come over to buy it again.

Now it is not as good as before, the town market is open, and the blacksmith is easy to find. If the Jiang family wants to build another copper furnace, they will have to wait until after the spring next year, and she will have to see who can drag whom.

Moreover, the next time the Jiang family comes over, she will raise the price to let them know how powerful they are.

Going back with two hands empty, Yuan Xiu had been standing at the door waiting for Jiangxi, and as soon as he saw her figure, he immediately came over with an oil-paper umbrella.

"It's cold, isn't it?"

Walking over, Yuan Xiu realized that Jiang Xi hadn't brought things back.

He took a closer look and asked, "Isn't the thing ready yet?" ”

Pouted, "No, someone raised the price, I didn't ask for it." ”

"Didn't you pay the deposit before, you don't want it, don't you lose the deposit."

Jiang Xi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then what's the way, they want a tael of silver, I can't give it." ”

"What? How much! ”

Yuan Xiu felt that he must have heard it wrong, but it was a small village and a small town, so why did he have to use two units.

"You heard it right, it's just a tael of silver, and I turned around and left. Since that thing is a treasure, they should keep it. ”

Jiang Xi's heart is as disgusting as eating a fly now, if it weren't for the heavy snow now, the whole town is staying at home, she really wants to go to the mayor of the town, tell the blacksmith's daughter-in-law about the money, and let her go to eat a board.

"So what now?"

"I have to wait."

"Wait?"

"Yes, wait! They have to eat, they can't sell anything, and life is much harder, and they will definitely come to us before the next market. ”

Yuan Xiu listened to it and didn't take it to heart.

He felt that he might not come to them again if he had a deposit of twenty cents.

It passed quickly, and there was still so much to do in the winter that everyone forgot about it in a few days.

Jiangxi went to the vegetable field in the past few days, and the pea seedlings in it grew very well, and the pea tips were fat and tender, which was also related to the fact that their family irrigated a lot of fertilizer.

"Yuan Xiu, don't stand over there, come over and help me pinch a handful of pea tips, let's make hand-rolled noodles when I go back at night, it's delicious to put some pea tips in it."

As soon as he heard what he was eating, Yuan Xiu's saliva was about to flow down.

In fact, since he came to Jiang's house, he has eaten too much delicious food, Jiangxi and Li are very good at cooking, and the dishes every day are appetizing, and they still keep reminiscing after eating.

Jiang Xi pinched a handful and looked at the other dishes.

The white radish grows well, the green vegetables planted last time also grow well, the cabbage can be eaten in a few days, and the kohlrabi is also ripe, and in a few days, you can dig a few to make mustard.

Thinking of the mustard made by my grandmother in my previous life, Jiangxi was a little greedy.

"Yuan Xiu, have you ever eaten mustard?"

On the way back, Jiang Xi asked casually.

Yuan Xiu shook his head blankly: "What is that?" Is it a type of dish? We haven't seen it on our side. ”

Covering her mouth and laughing, she found that Yuan Xiu was sometimes very funny.

"It's not like that, mustard is made of kohlrabi, it's a bit like sauerkraut, but the taste difference is quite big, the mustard is spicy, and it is especially eaten with rice, and it is very crispy, and it is crunchy in the mouth."

"Xi'er, don't say it! Besides, I feel like I'm going to drool. ”

"Haha!"

The two walked back with a smile, after Jiang Xi said that he wanted to eat hand-rolled noodles, the old man kneaded the flour, he used to be an apprentice in the pastry, and the pasta and other things were all done well, even the Li family couldn't compare.

The old man kneaded the dough, Jiang Xi was washing the vegetables on the side, she didn't let Yuan Xiu stay in the kitchen, but asked him to go back to the house to read.

It was a pharmacological book, which was bought in the town before the winter solstice in Jiangxi, and the book was not cheap these days, especially those related to pharmacology.

Originally, this book was ordered by Dr. Yuan from the bookstore owner, but because of his accident, this book was left in the bookstore, if it weren't for the Jiang family's sake, Yuan Xiu's sake, the bookstore owner would not have been able to sell it to her at the purchase price.

A few days ago, Jiang Xi suddenly remembered this book when he sorted out his things, so he handed it to Yuan Xiu.

Yuan Xiu postponed it at first, knowing that Jiang Xi said with a straight face: "If you don't want this thing, it will be tantamount to living up to my intention to buy this book, and it will also live up to Dr. Yuan's painstaking efforts to teach you pharmacology for several years." ”

Maybe it was because of Doctor Yuan, Yuan Xiu picked up the book, and once he had words that he couldn't understand, Jiangxi became a living dictionary and gave him guidance on the side.

Jiangxi believes that one day there will be another doctor Yuan in this family.
