Chapter 440: Shame

Qin Feng also looked at her strangely, not knowing what she wanted to ask Chrysanthemum for.

Yun Ying said with great interest: "The quaint tree in your yard has good roots, you ask Huaizi to go up the mountain to find a similar one and make a big bonsai for me."

Qin Feng's eyes lit up and he smiled: "Hmm! That tree is really good, and I like it too. Simple but not vulgar, clumsy but not coarse, when the new leaves are born in spring, the dead wood is full of vitality, which is very interesting. ”

Yun Ying was even happier, took his hand and said, "Let Huaizi get another one to send us." At this time, if you don't blackmail, there will be no store in this village - we can only get married once. ”

"Hahaha!" Huaizi and Chrysanthemum both laughed, and even Qin Feng was also smiling.

After laughing, Chrysanthemum said: "You both like that, just dig up the one in my house and send it to you." You may not be able to find such a good one in the mountains. ”

Yun Ying shook his head and explained, "That tree was dug down from the mountain by you, and it has already broken its muscles and bones once, and if you move it again, it will become more and more bad, and besides, I can't take people's love." There must be one on the mountain, and it doesn't have to be exactly the same as your home, as long as it is elegant and vulgar, it is unique enough. The trees in the yard alone are a bit monotonous. ”

Huaizi's heart moved, and while nodding in agreement, he asked, "I'll look for it, and I remember that I have seen a lot in the past." What kind of bonsai is it going to be, you've seen people put this?"

Yunying said: "It's planted in the yard." Rich and noble people build gardens, like to build some rockeries, lakes and stones, dig pools to gather water, plant trees and flowers, kudzu vines are entangled, and a lot of tricks are also made in every inch of land. Beauty is beautiful, but there is less natural taste, the mountains have no pulse, the water has no source, and the traces of manpower are too much. Qingnan Village is located in the mountains, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the family does not need to get those things, and the courtyard is the same as the outside of the courtyard, planting some miscellaneous trees and dead trees. With wild fun, this is like a farm yard. ”

Huaizi nodded in thought.

Chrysanthemum pursed her lips and smiled: "Your yard needs to be more unique, and you can grow medicinal herbs everywhere." Under the wall of the courtyard, plant some honeysuckle, lentils, gourds and the like, vines climbing, medicine and vegetables, isn't it more in line with your requirements"

Yun Ying smiled: "Naturally, you help me when I grow vegetables; I'll help you plant some herbs in your yard to repel mosquitoes. ”

Laugh for a while. Lai Xi also came back with two food boxes, and Liu Xiaomei came to call everyone to eat.

At night, after coaxing the twins to sleep, Chrysanthemum and Sophora had free time to walk around Aoki's garden together. Five acres of land. It is said that it is three-in, and the courtyard in the middle is very small, and the houses are compact, so that the courtyard at the back is larger. Only the second one built the east and west wings, and the third one did not build the wings, and they were empty for the time being.

The two of them came to the backyard, which was full of trees, and like at home, various fruit trees and bamboo forests had grown. There is also a small vegetable patch, which looks like a farmer's yard.

The breeze was light, the branches and leaves were rustling, and Huaizi took the chrysanthemum's hand and said to her: "I listened to Yunying's words and thought of an idea: if you pay more attention on weekdays, you can find some old roots on the mountain." Or trees with a peculiar shape, sawed off the top, made into a potted plant, opened a shop, and sold it exclusively to the wealthy. You're good."

Chrysanthemum was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and said, "Okay! That's a great idea. This business is a non-capital business, as long as it takes some manual care. And also. You have a unique vision and can repair the shape, which is going to have some aesthetic interest. In fact, it is not difficult, there are many elegant things of rich people, we don't have to follow suit - vassal elegance will be bad. This bonsai only takes its wild and rustic taste, and it will be able to find its own way. Liked. ”

Huaizi smiled and nodded: "In other words, I, a farmer, are the best at choosing this."

Chrysanthemum smiled: "I don't know if it's good or not, I think you can definitely do it."

Huaizi chuckled: "This shop won't be opened first." I found two people from Wang's house, took them to the mountains first, taught them to find these roots, dug some back, and then made some open wooden boxes, loaded them with soil, and raised them in their house. Specially around a large yard to put this. When the planting is ripe, find out the habits of those trees, and open the shop next year. Otherwise, the person who bought it asked, how to take care of the service, we can't answer it, and the person who opens the shop must also choose well. It just so happened that Uncle Liu's nephew - didn't his father and mother want to sell them - let him come over earlier, train him, and come to the market next year to open a shop. ”

Chrysanthemum said: "It's to be ready first." The difficulty is how to take care of the roots. Some trees like shade and dampness, and some trees like sun, and they all have to be ripe. And prepare slowly. If this is famous, it will be better than the business next to it. It's not easy for people to learn, dig one back, raise it for a few days and die, so how can you sell it"

Huaizi nodded: "I think so too." Suddenly, he laughed and said, "When it is sold, pour some water on it to wash the fungus, and grow some fungus out, it will be more attractive." Anyway, the fungus is always a few months long, and you can see it for a few months. ”

The two laughed, happy that they had found a new way to make money.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Huaizi really took the chrysanthemum to the old street to drink tofu flowers and eat steamed dumplings.

The stall selling tofu flowers does not sell steamed buns and fried dumplings, so Huaizi placed the chrysanthemum grapes at the small table and sat down, and he went to another shop to buy these two things.

The stall selling tofu flowers was still under the willow trees by the river, and the chrysanthemum held the chestnut, scooped some tofu flowers with a spoon, carefully blew them and cooled them, fed them to him, and motioned for the grapes to feed the shallots.

When I wake up in the morning, chestnuts and shallots are always happy, and now I am in the market, and there is a constant flow of people around, so my eyes are busy.

The eyes of the brother and sister followed the figure of the laundry daughter-in-law who went down to the river to the bottom of the steps, and just as they were walking and walking, they disappeared when they suddenly heard someone shouting at the top of their voices, "Selling glutinous rice dumplings," and immediately turned their heads to see the vendor carrying the burden shouting as he walked; Then someone shouted, "Sell fruit cakes!" Fragrant and crispy cornmeal fruit cake, one for one. Then he turned his gaze away.

Seeing that her son was busy, Chrysanthemum was a little funny, and said, "Chestnut, if you don't eat it, the tofu flower will be cold."

While putting a spoonful of bean curd to his mouth, when he swallowed it, he lifted the handkerchief to help him wipe the water stains on the side of his mouth. Seeing that the chestnuts were not attentive, she simply didn't feed them, and ate all the bean curd in the bowl in three or two clicks, so she hugged her son and waited for Huaizi to buy snacks and come back, and then eat some snacks.

As he was sitting, he saw two short brown men in Tsing Yi on the table next to him also eating bean curd, not much like a farmer, nor like a rich man. They kept looking at her and the grapes, and then at the two babies, although they didn't show any expression, but Chrysanthemum just felt uncomfortable, so she put her son up and covered her face.

When Huaizi wrapped two large bags of hot buns and fried dumplings in paper, the grapes immediately sniffed happily and said, "It's so fragrant!"

Chrysanthemum smiled: "You can taste it better than me."

She casually slipped through the two men next to her, found that they were no longer there, and didn't tell Huaizi, so she ordered a few more bowls of bean curd and ate them with steamed buns and fried dumplings.

After eating for a while, Huaizi paid the bill, picked up a pair of children, and said to her, "Let's go!" It's too late to see the excitement. Hurry up, maybe the greeting hasn't left yet. "He said to go to Liujiatang.

Chrysanthemum said to her son and daughter, "Go and see the bride!"

Her playful appearance amused the chestnuts and shallots, and she lay on the shoulders of the locust and laughed at her; The grapes took her hand and made fun of the two babies.

Walking to the new street, there were still a lot of vendors selling snacks on both sides, and she felt that she was like her son and daughter, and her eyes were not enough. Deep-fried spring rolls, fried leek cakes, fried dough sticks, sweet wine dumplings, corn fruit cakes, acorn noodles and tofu, hot and sour vermicelli, steamed buns and dumplings are commonplace, as well as persimmons, sesame sugar, etc., all kinds of fragrances go straight to the nose.

Obviously, there are many poor people in Xiatangji, but this market town is lively and prosperous. As far back as she remembers, there weren't so many snacks a few years ago – and no one bought them! This is all because there are many businessmen and many rich people.

Chrysanthemum suddenly felt extremely happy.

She can eat these snacks with peace of mind, and she doesn't have to worry about gutter oil and various chemical poisons at all. The poor here find life difficult because of their hardship; They would never have dreamed that there was a place where there was a lot to eat, and people were still miserable.

Thinking about it like this, I suddenly felt that my appetite was great, and I wanted to buy something to eat, but my stomach was so full, I had to give up.

She looked down and saw that the grapes were the same as herself, and she was also looking at those snacks. But the little girl drank two bowls of tofu in the morning, ate two steamed buns and five fried dumplings, it was impossible not to be full, but just like her, her eyes were greedy.

Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Huaizi couldn't help but smile and asked, "Why don't you buy a few spring rolls and eat and play on the way?"

Chrysanthemum smiled: "It's okay." The tofu flower I drink in the morning is actually digested quickly. Grapes, you go buy some spring rolls, let's bring them as snacks, and buy a few more hemp candy. ”

Grape sighed, took the small money bag handed by Chrysanthemum, and ran to the stall of fried spring rolls in a hurry.

The two stood and waited for her. Huaizi smiled and asked Chrysanthemum: "Why do you like these things, I don't think they are as delicious as you make."

Chrysanthemum pursed her lips and smiled, how to say this

This is the difference between men and women, a woman generally likes to go shopping and eat delicious snacks, even if the things at home are delicious, she still likes to sit on the side of the road and eat them.

Maybe it's because of that feeling of ease and leisure, after all, she is a cook at home.

After teasing for a while, Chrysanthemum saw that the grapes hadn't come back yet, so she looked at the stall where the spring rolls were fried -

Hey! The grapes are not there.

She looked at the hemp candy vendor again, and suddenly her heart "groaned" - there were no grapes over there. Swept around in a panic, the streets were full of people, buying and selling things, making noise, and where there was the shadow of grapes.

She asked, "Grape mile."

Huaizi also found that the grapes were missing, and searched the crowd with extreme eyes.

Chrysanthemum heart "dong dong" jumped wildly, she already had a bad premonition, she desperately looked at the corner street, thinking about such a while, she was abducted, and she couldn't go far.
