Chapter 64: The Red Days

Even Qingshan and Cui'er complained to each other on the edge of the small lake, and their hearts were firmly placed in their stomachs, holding hands and sweetly picking fresh reed leaves, mugwort or something went back to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival, and they were very warm in their busyness.

As the days passed, even Qingshan could already walk like a fly with a cane, and sometimes he could walk without crutches, but he was still a little tired.

"Cui'er, it's the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, let's go to the town to buy some things and come back for the festival?" Lian Qingshan said while helping Cui'er toss and pick the tea green, when he spoke, he glanced at Cui'er from time to time, and then smiled secretly, as if he had something on his mind.

"Well, okay, it just so happens that we have a lot of tea stir-fried, take it to the grocery store in the town to send some, the money shopkeeper said that he is going to send a return to the mountain recently, and he wants to bring some tea out." Cui'er nodded in response, thinking in her heart about taking out all the tea leaves that the family had accumulated over the past few days, and picking out a few more to sell in the town.

A few days ago, Cui'er went to the town to deliver wicker baskets, and took the slightly worse tea made by the family earlier to the money shopkeeper's shop, wanting him to try if he could sell it. This tea is a precious thing in the north, but when anyone has a treat, they have to prepare some, although the market is not wide, but there is always a place in need, and the worst can still be drunk at home.

Cui'er's tea leaves taste good, and they are not sold too expensive, although the price of one or two teas for fifty yuan seems to be sky-high in the village, but in the eyes of these people in the money shopkeeper, this is really not much value. Just the money shopkeeper himself, when he smelled this tea, he felt that he liked it very much, so he bought a pound out of his pocket on the spot to drink.

In addition to the money shopkeeper, I just happened to meet the wife of Zhao Yuanwai's family in the town who came to buy something, smelled the smell of tea, and naturally refused to miss it, and also wrapped half a catty to go home. Cui'er brought a pound and a half of tea leaves to sell on her body, and she bought a fine light all at once, earning back more than 700 yuan.

The shopkeeper felt that Cui'er's tea was good, so he immediately decided, saying that he would send a batch of goods to the outside of the mountain after half a month, and asked Cui'er to send some tea and wicker baskets, and take them out together when they were shipped to the outside of the mountain.

Zhaocai, who was originally lying quietly on the windowsill, heard Cui'er say that the tea was instantly energetic, holding her ears, a pair of black bean eyes stared at Cui'er's movements, and her eyes were good, and when Cui'er took the tea jar out of the cabinet, this little thing immediately jumped up as if it was stimulated, and threw itself towards the tea jar, knocking down a large piece of the tea jar placed on the kang.

"Oh, Zhaocai, stay away." Cui'er reached out and tapped the top of Zhaocai's head, picked it up and threw it aside, still counting the tea leaves. A pound and a large jar are fried summer tea, and a small jar of half a catty is the tea leaves with a better taste and fermentation carefully selected by Cui'er, don't look at the large and small jars on this kang, which add up to only ten catties of tea.

Cui'er took out the best ones in the tea leaves, put them away well, and refused to sell them this time, and the remaining tea of about six or seven catties was put into a wicker basket by Cui'er, ready to be picked up in town tomorrow and sent to the money shopkeeper for consignment.

"Cui'er, I'll go to town with you tomorrow, I asked Qinghe to borrow an ox cart, and I'll drive you tomorrow." Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's busy appearance, pursed his lips and smiled, thinking in his heart that he would take Cui'er to the town in an ox cart tomorrow, and after selling tea, he would go to the yamen by the way to get the marriage certificate and household registration together.

Thinking of the things that she has been busy with these days since Cui'er agreed to marry her, Lian Qingshan's heart is hot, and then thinking that tomorrow Cui'er will be his rightful daughter-in-law, Lian Qingshan can't wait to come tomorrow.

That night, when Cui'er fell asleep, Lian Qingshan was still rubbing a paper bag that he secretly put under the mattress, thinking that after tomorrow, Cui'er would be the person of her own family recognized by the government, and even the smile on Qingshan's mouth was so big that she couldn't stop it.

Early the next morning, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan got up early in the morning, called the big girl and the little tiger to get dressed, and after eating breakfast, Lian Qinghe drove the ox cart over, and along with the ox cart, there was also Aunt Lu.

"Cui'er, are you going to town? I happened to hear the news, and they gave me a while. Aunt Lu said with a smile as soon as she entered the door, today she was wearing a crimson dress, her hair was much more energetic than usual, and with a smile on her face, it seemed like a happy event.

"Auntie wants to be together, I can't ask for it!" Cui'er saw Aunt Lu coming, and hurriedly greeted, "Has Auntie eaten?" Just at home, eat a bite before going out, save the early wind blowing the cold on the road. As she spoke, Cui'er took out two large bowls of bud rice batter from the pot, and took out four steamed buns mixed with bud rice noodles and buckwheat noodles and put them on the kang table.

"Okay, take two bites first." Aunt Lu really didn't eat breakfast because she came in a hurry, seeing that Cui'er was so attentive, and she was not an outsider, she got on the kang with one leg and picked up the steamed buns to eat. Thinking of what he was going to do for the two of them today, the smile on his face became even bigger, and they didn't lose anything by eating their breakfast.

At this time, Cui'er had already cleaned up the big girl and Xiaohu's bodies, the big girl wore Cui'er's newly made flower skirt, combed a bag of buns, and looked pink and tender, white and clean, Xiaohu was wearing flower pants and a belly pocket, and a light blue shirt was put on the outside, and her hair was combed into a sky-high little tug, which looked very cute.

Aunt Lu and Lian Qinghe finished breakfast, and then went out with the things they wanted to bring, Cui'er asked Lian Qingshan to pull the big girl, hugged Xiaohu by herself, and said excitedly while walking out, "Let's go, go to the town!" ”

"Quack ......" Xiaohu seems to be infected by the excitement of the whole family, clapping his little hands and laughing, his little face is already round and fleshy, pink and pink, which makes people can't help but want to kiss it fiercely when they see it.

Sitting on the ox cart, Cui'er held the little tiger in her arms, pulled the big girl to sit in one place, and talked and laughed with Aunt Lu, Lian Qingshan and Lian Qinghe sat in front of the ox cart together, talking mysteriously, Cui'er didn't hear clearly.

There was nothing to say all the way, Xu is ox cart walked a lot faster than people, when he arrived in the town, it was still early, Cui'er was going to sell tea, and even Qingshan seemed to have something to do, looking around from time to time.

"Qingshan, I'll go to the Qian family's grocery store to sell tea, and then we'll go to Zheng Langzhong's pharmacy to show you your legs, can you see what else you have to do?" Cui'er discussed with Lian Qingshan.

"You go sell tea first, look at the legs, I'll let the second child accompany me." Lian Qingshan said.

"By the way, Cui'er, my mother's family has brought news, the chicken cubs you want are hugged, just take advantage of the ox cart here, and bring the chicken cubs back." Aunt Lu, who was originally "on the way", said to Cui'er with a somewhat strange smile on her face.

"That's okay, then I'll send the tea over first, you guys take advantage of this time to take a look at your legs, let's see you in the shopkeeper's shop later, and then go around to Aunt Lu's mother's house to get the chicken cubs back?"

"Alright, that's it!" Lian Qingshan nodded and clapped.

"I'll take the big girl and the little tiger with me, you guys will be messing around when you get to the hospital, it's not easy to do." Cui'er thought about it, and the two children were still good with themselves, so she asked them to put themselves down in front of the grocery store, and moved the tea and wicker baskets down, which allowed Lian Qingshan and them to go to the hospital.

Because I had already said hello to the money shopkeeper before, when Cui'er entered the store, Le Zi saw it, and she was busy helping to move the wicker basket in, and called the money shopkeeper to come out, and the tea and basket were sold very smoothly, needless to mention.

Let's say that after Lian Qingshan and his party put Cui'er and the children in the Qian family's grocery store, they did not go to Zheng Langzhong's pharmacy, but turned around and went directly to the place where the town was in charge of household registration.

After entering the door, as soon as the gatekeeper saw Aunt Lu, he greeted him with a smile, "Third aunt, you are here!" ”

"Come on, what's the matter, are you adults here?" Aunt Lu smiled and gave the gatekeeper a few big bucks.

"Here, I heard that my aunt is coming over today, so I came here a little early!" The gatekeeper took the big money, checked it with a smile, and led Aunt Lu and Qingshan and Qinghe to go inside.

"This is our village, I have seen the eldest child since I was a child, I married my daughter-in-law a few days ago, and the family is poor and has not had time to get married, so I want to do the household registration first, and then I will do the marriage later." Aunt Lu said to the doorkeeper, and as she spoke, she stuffed a small cloth bag.

"Naturally, we all know this." The doorkeeper flipped the small cloth bag in his hand, and the smile on his face became even bigger, "The third aunt is here for a while, and I'll teach you later."

"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news!" Aunt Lu smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, and watched the door go in for a moment and then came out, and then invited a few people in.

After a few people went in, that is, after a stick of incense, even Qingshan and a few came out again, and when they came out, they all had smiles on their faces, obviously things went extremely smoothly. Lian Qingshan looked at the post with the big red official seal in his hand again and again, and the names of Lian Qingshan and Ye Cuier were written side by side, so that he could see how pleasing to the eye.

A big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and even the smile on Qingshan's face was very brisk, and when he walked out of the small yamen, Lian Qingshan gave a deep salute to Aunt Lu, "Thank you Auntie for helping me!" ”

"What's this, I also like Cui'er's girl, since you have the heart to make up a wedding for her, these rules in the yamen naturally can't be saved. If you want to thank me, when the time comes to get married, just pay tribute to my aunt with a glass of wine! Aunt Lu smiled and joked about Lian Qingshandao.

"That's nature, that's nature." Lian Qingshan responded again and again, carefully wrapped the household post in oiled paper, put it in his arms, and pressed it with his hand, only to feel that his heart was steady, grinned, and thought of giving Cui'er a surprise when he went home, so he smiled even brighter.

I went to the Qian family's grocery store to pick up Cui'er, bought a lot of rice, noodles, meat, eggs and food, and took a detour to Aunt Lu's maiden house, and came back with sixty chicks, and then the family returned to the village lively.

What Cui'er didn't know was that when Cui'er was selling things to the grocery store, a woman with a sad face happened to see this scene, watching Cui'er get the bright silver back, only to feel that this silver was earned by Lian Qingshan, and she was so jealous that she almost tore her sleeves.
