Chapter 21: Love to dig but not to dig
Lin Zifu thought that she said something like that, Li Qiuju could understand and leave, but she didn't expect that it would be half a catty, and the wheat in the basket looked very muddy, even if she lost half a catty, she would suffer.
She won't do a loss-making business, although she will make some concessions because of her neighborhood, but she values interests very much, and she is not particularly familiar with Li Qiuju, and besides, what will everyone do like this in the future? Do you have to make unprincipled concessions from her?
Directly shook his head and said firmly: "Auntie, don't embarrass me, if you really start this, I won't have to post money in the future, if you don't want to dig up herbs, you won't dig tomorrow, but I still hope you clean it today, dry the surface moisture, and send it tomorrow morning, I will give you silver money as soon as I sell the herbs." ”
Aunt Liao appreciates Lin Zifu's character very much, yes, this is the principle, but you can't change it just because of a person, in that case, everyone will not abide by it.
Li Qiuju thought that Lin Zifu was easy to speak, but she didn't expect to insist like this.
Bar clicked his mouth and was very dissatisfied: "Then I'll take it back and wash it and send it tomorrow, it's really troublesome." ”
Aunt Liao couldn't get used to Li Qiuju like this, and sneered: "It's not that I beg you to dig herbs, you don't want to dig if you don't like trouble." ”
Li Qiuju glared at Aunt Liao, and left with the basket on her back dissatisfied.
When the three of them saw Li Qiuju leaving, they all looked at each other at the same time and shook their heads.
Aunt Liao was dissatisfied: "I didn't expect Wu Caihua to even call someone like Li Qiuju, it's time to talk about her, and this Li Qiuju has a good relationship with Zhou Qiangui's family, Zifu, you have to be careful." ”
She also heard the matter of the village chief reminding Lin Zifu before, relying on the behavior of Zhou Qiangui and his wife, I am afraid that Lin Zifu will not be able to take it back, and Li Qiuju and Zhou Qiangui's family have a good relationship, who knows what kind of trouble will be caused when they are united.
In fact, after coming for so many days, Lin Zifu has never seen Zhou Qiangui and his wife, but when she thinks of He Dayou's reminder, she is afraid, and now that her heels are not firm, she still hopes that there will be less trouble.
Li Qiuju's incident was an episode, early the next morning, someone came to sell Mai Dong, and more than a dozen people were blocked at the door.
Aunt Liao and Aunt Guixiang came to help early, and Lin Zifu kept the accounts on the side.
Yesterday's dozen people dug two or three catties, and some dug four or five catties, and a total of more than thirty catties of wheat were collected, and they were registered one by one.
And Tian Guiying, who had a good impression yesterday, took a few women who didn't like to talk very much, and after selling Mai Dong, she went up the mountain directly with a basket on her back.
Lin Zifu hadn't expected such a situation before, and thought that no one in the village was willing to go up the mountain, but there were still seven or eight people, while the other five or six people looked like they were waiting.
Li Qiuju was a little uncomfortable when she saw Tian Guiying taking people up the mountain, and she always felt that she was choked, and she felt extremely uncomfortable when she went back last night.
Thinking about what Lin Zifu and Aunt Liao were arrogant, now seeing that Tian Guiying was about to go up the mountain with a few people, she couldn't help but provoke: "You are not afraid that this girl will not give you silver, anyway, I don't want to follow." ”
Tian Guiying glanced at Li Qiuju lightly and said: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute, don't go if you don't like to follow, what are you doing here to squeeze a little girl?" Even if we don't give money, we won't lose much, and there will be nothing to do in the past two days. ”
She doesn't like Li Qiuju to squeeze a girl so carelessly, this is a good thing, as long as someone with a little longer brain knows that Lin Zifu is completely helping.
After all, so many people go up the mountain to dig herbs for Lin Zifu must be a bad thing, if Lin Zifu doesn't help them, Lin Zifu will only dig the herbs in the back mountain alone, just like her own vegetable garden, but after saying that, everyone is digging herbs, and Lin Zifu can only go a little farther away if she wants to dig it.
She has no doubt that the night doctor bought four yuan a catty, the raw herbs are not expensive, the key is that people don't accept the raw herbs at all, Lin Zifu asked everyone to dig up the herbs and sell them to her, such a good thing Li Qiuju, who is blind, can't see any good.
Lin Zifu spent money to renovate the house, which means that she wants to live in the village for a long time, so she can't be stupid, and she won't give everyone money if she sells Mai Dong, Tian Guiying thinks about this very clearly, and the women who follow her also think very clearly.
Tian Guixiang and Tian Guiying used to be from the same village, and they were still cousins.
Now I heard Tian Guiying protecting Lin Zifu so much, and I appreciated it: "Guiying, don't waste time, let's go, let's go into the mountain." ”
A group of eight people walked directly to the mountain with a basket on their backs, and no one paid attention to Li Qiuju anymore.
The rest of the women who were watching were still hesitant, and Aunt Liao put the basket on her back, picked up the hoe and said, "You don't want to believe that Zifu doesn't need to dig medicine in the mountains, but don't be jealous when you see everyone taking money in the future." After speaking, he turned his head directly and went to chase Aunt Guixiang.
Lin Zifu naturally won't persuade these people, anyway, her idea is very simple, she loves to dig or not, although the more she buys, the more money she makes, but if these people don't get along well, don't believe her, and have to find trouble, there is really no need to stay, so she didn't care how a few people left.
He Yunhu was the last to sell Mai Dong, not to mention that He Yunhu was stronger than most people in the village yesterday, he actually dug a little more than five catties, and after recording the number of catties, Lin Zifu and Aunt Ying totaled, Aunt Ying entered the mountain today, and she stayed to ask He Dayou to help build a shelf.
In the past two days, even the digging with her and Aunt Ying has been sixty or seventy catties, and so much wheat must be dried well.
So after Aunt Ying left, she went to ask He Dayou to come over and help.
After Aunt Liao's husband He Dahua heard that Lin Zifu needed help, he followed He Dayou to Lin Zifu's house without saying a word.
The few bamboos cut back that day were not enough, He Dayou and He Dahua were discussing how much bamboo to cut, what bamboo to cut to build a shelf is more solid, Lin Zifu is very grateful to the two of them for helping.
"Uncle Otomo, I plan to build a shelf here, just like a silkworm platform for raising silkworms, layer by layer."
She had seen a silkworm platform in He Dayou's house, and the shelf she wanted to build was similar to a silkworm platform, which was more ventilated layer by layer, and it was also very convenient to dry.
He Dayou nodded, but the more he listened, the more he felt that it was unnecessary to build a shelf.
"Zifu, if you want to build a silkworm platform like this, I don't think you need to build it, just take my silkworm platform shelf and use it, my silkworm platform has been useless for many years, and it is about to decay."
