In the end, Aunt Liao picked 1 white and 1 black 4 reeds, a total of 6 big chickens, all of which were put into the basket for Qiao Xi.

"Thank you, Aunt Liao."

Qiao Xi's purpose has been achieved, if you want to ask for other people's precious things, you have to use a method that others can accept, so that people can give it happily and voluntarily, that is the way of smart people.

Qiao Xi thanked him and went home happily with Meng Xiaobai.

On the way back, Meng Xiaobai kept staring at her bamboo basket, saliva three feet long.

Qiao Xi picked up Meng Xiaobai, lifted his ears, and warned, "Meng Xiaobai, you can listen to me!" If you can't control yourself anymore and steal chickens to eat, I'll cut you off and make you a fox eunuch. If you don't listen, don't say that your mother will skin you, even I will beat you to death. Remember? ”

"Remembered, remembered."

Meng Xiaobai clamped her legs tightly, looking aggrieved.

When she returned home and entered the yard, Yu Hui saw her coming back from outside and asked, "Where have you been at noon?" ”

Seeing her holding Meng Xiaobai in her arms, she was a little angry, "Didn't you say that you killed that dead dog?" Why did you bring it back again? What if it steals my chicken again? ”

Qiao Xi hurriedly explained, "Mom, I have already taught this dog a lesson, and I promise you that he will never steal chickens again in the future." ”

Put down Meng Xiaobai, take off the bamboo basket, Qiao Xi gave the basket to Yu Hui, "Mom, don't be angry, Meng Xiaobai ate one of your Luhua chickens, can I compensate you for six chicks now?" ”

"What's the use of losing my chickens? I'm a reed flower......" Yu Hui didn't take it seriously, but when she looked down at a few chickens in the basket, she suddenly suppressed her anger, "Ah! Yikes! Where did you get this Luhua chicken? ”

"Mom, it was given to me by Aunt Liao, you can raise them now."

Yu Hui immediately smiled, and said in disbelief, "That old woman is a door-picker, who asked her to ask for a chick, she didn't give it, how could she give it to you?" ”

"I'll help her with her leg, she sent it."

"Okay, okay, I'll raise it." Yu Hui understood, and walked away happily with the chicken cub in her hand.

Qiao Xi glanced down at Meng Xiaobai, one person and one fox, looking at each other.

When I was about to enter the house, I saw my father sitting under the shed in the yard, bowing his head and weaving a bamboo basket.

My father skillfully used a knife to split those bamboo strips into thin strips, and then wound them around and overlapped them to make bamboo baskets of similar shape and size.

His father's hands were covered with calluses and often cut by bamboo, but he always wrapped some strips of cloth and continued to weave.

Qiao Xi knew that weaving was his father's craft and his hobby, and as long as he had free time, he would weave a few.

Looking at the work in his father's hands, Qiao Xi walked over and asked, "Dad, it's so hot at noon, don't get heat stroke." ”

"I'm going to have an early gathering tomorrow, and I'll make a few more baskets to sell."

"How much can a bamboo basket sell for?"

"It doesn't sell for much, this thing is cheap, two or three cents a piece."

Qiao Xi calculated, it was only two or three cents a piece, so if you want to earn 100 yuan, you have to make at least more than 500 yuan.

There are more than 500, how many days and nights do you have to make it up?

It's a time-consuming, laborious and unprofitable job!

"Why do you only weave bamboo baskets and baskets, and don't make anything else to sell?"
