Chapter 42: Pity
"Cherry, what are you going to do?" Akiyama's eyes were a little innocent. He stood in a row with Runsheng and Miao Yuze at the door of the house, but Cherry was hiding on the side, what was this going to do?
"We're going to borrow a fire from someone." Cherry happily watched the three boys of flowers stand in a row, forming a beautiful landscape: "You have to get some ripe gray bean roots, and when there is a fragrance, someone will come." Otherwise, wait for a morning, and there will be no one to ask the price, let alone twenty-five wen, fifteen wen will not be sold. I'll call the door for a while, and when the door opens, whether it's a little daughter-in-law or an old woman, you have to smile at people and show the best smile, understand? ”
"I ......" Akiyama blinked, "Why does it seem to be a joke?" ”
Runsheng frowned slightly: "It's not like, it's just!" Sakura is trying to use hue to seduce people!! As he spoke, he reluctantly shook his head: "Sakura, other things are fine, but this thing ......" He is also a scholar no matter what he says. Besides, it's just that he and Akiyama are involved in this matter, and Cherry even counts Brother Yuzawa into it. Who is Miao Yuze? If he doesn't get it right, he's going to be angry......
"Okay, Akiyama-san?" Cherry didn't pay attention to Runsheng, but blinked coquettishly, and Akiyama couldn't stand this trick the most. As long as Akiyama agrees, Runsheng will not break himself. As for Miao Yu Zema, if you want to, take him with you, if you don't want to, Ming'er will stay in Xiaomiao Village and don't follow.
"Naturally." Sure enough, Akiyama obediently complied.
As soon as Akiyama said this, Runsheng naturally followed suit: "Okay." But I can only laugh and say nothing else. ”
"That's all, I'll just do the talking." Cherry rubbed her hands confidently and looked at Miao Yuze with a smile.
Miao Yuze looked up at the sky, kept blinking, and quietly took half a step back under his feet. He had long regretted coming here. This little girl is simply a good person, and she is too good at using resources, so she actually hit the idea here. Thinking about it carefully, it is estimated that she had the idea from the beginning, but it was a pity that he didn't check it for a while and fell for her.
Seeing Miao Yuze's appearance, Qiu Shan hurriedly helped him: "It's okay to have me and Runsheng, Brother Yuze doesn't need it, right?" ”
Runsheng also said: "No need for Brother Yuze." He was afraid that if Miao Yuze got angry, he would turn around and embarrass the Yue family again.
"If you're too embarrassed to get your hands on it, go and stand aside. When we borrowed the fire, we went back together. "Cherry is like a small person in the market who has done unprofitable business, his face is not very good-looking, and his tone is harsh.
Miao Yuze blushed, took a few deep breaths, and said firmly: "What's so embarrassing?" Mr. said that the only way to taste all the tastes of the world is to appreciate the sufferings of the people and to be a good official for a lifetime. As he spoke, he waved his sleeves with a sacrificial spirit: "It's just a smile, what's so difficult?" "His ambition is to gain fame or two, to be a good official, and to benefit the people.
Cherry couldn't help but smile: "Okay, okay." Then you stand in a row, I'm going to call the door. ”
Miao Yuze took a deep breath again, feeling a little stuffy in his heart, back and forth, and fell for this little girl again!!
The one who came out of the door was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl's house, and she was wearing a marijuana flower that the girl had just combed. As soon as she opened the door, three handsome and upright beautiful young men smiled at her, and she didn't see the strength and bitterness in the smile in a hurry. A woman who has not left the cabinet, how has she ever seen this kind of formation? Dengshi's face turned red, and he hurriedly retracted and hung his head: "What's the matter with you?" ”
"This good sister" Cherry appeared: "My name is Cherry, and these are my brothers. We are from Xiaomiao Village, and today we are here to sell some of our own things. But the sky is really cold and panicked, I want to borrow a fire from you, and go back to set up a temporary small stove, which is so warm. Feasible? ”
Miao Yuze snorted coldly, panicking again! It's really more slippery than ordinary people talking!
"It's just a fire, why not?" The girl had already blushed with shame, and her eyes always swept inadvertently from Runsheng's face, with infinite shame on her face: "Wait a minute, I'll go get it for you." So saying, he went back to the house, and in a moment he fetched two pieces of flint and steel, and a little cob skin for fire, and a cob of dried corn
"I'm tired of my sister. When I'm done with it, I'll call my brother to return it. Cherry took it happily, thanked the girl politely, and left the alley with the three of them.
The girl blushed with shame, hid behind the door and watched a few people out of the alley before reluctantly closing the door.
"It's that simple?" Out of the alley, Akiyama spoke. He saw that the girl didn't sweep herself at all, and he was a little disappointed
"How about you?" Cherry shook the flint in his hand, and the few people returned to the place where they had set up the stall just now, used the bricks picked up by Akiyama to set up a makeshift small stove, took the cob skin and corn cob to make a fire, and picked up some dead branches to burn.
Then pick a sturdy wooden branch, string a small piece of yam, put it on the fire and burn it, and after a while, the fragrance will waft all around.
The pungent fragrance, coupled with the vigorous shouting of cherries, immediately attracted many people to ask for prices.
Akiyama and Runsheng were busy helping to cope. Miao Yuze had already let it go, and he had the momentum of breaking the bottle and breaking it, so he shouted there with the cherries.
Pinch the roasted yam root and let the flesh of the white flower flower come out, allowing the aroma to waft all around. Break off another piece, pinch a small piece and distribute it to those who come to ask the price to eat, while introducing other ways to eat yam root and nutritional value, even boasting, Miao Yuze rolled his eyes.
It took a long time, and three beautiful young men were also brought in, and Cherry was ruthless, and asked for the price to 30 Wen, buy two catties and get three taels for free.
Yufeng Town is a wealthy town in Shuize County, and there are many rich people. When you encounter any strange food, you are naturally willing to spend money to buy it. In a short time, a small basket full of yam roots went halfway down. All of them were sold for 30 wen a catty, and occasionally bought more, and gave away a few taels.
Cherry was busy, but secretly regretted in her heart.
It's a pity, it's a pity, it's a pity.
Such a good thing to sell, such an expensive thing, the family only saved so little. At this rate, it is estimated that it will be sold out in two days. Really, if I had gone up the mountain with Akiyama earlier, I might have been able to dig a little more and earn a little more. The family needs money too much now, and she doesn't want to ask her sisters to do laundry and embroidery every day for the dozen dollars, and she has to take care of housework, and she is tired and half dead at the end of the day.
Thinking of this, she suddenly thought that it was better to keep the yam beans at home and plant yam in the field after the spring of the next year. This thing, she had specially planted it in her previous life, she had technology and experience, and if she cultivated it artificially, it was quite certain that the yam roots would be twice as thick as they are now. And as long as you are well trained and educated, this thing will grow better and better year by year, and you will receive more.
Thirty wen a catty, yam planting, can be harvested two or three times a year, and generally rotated every three years. In addition to being a little troublesome at the beginning, it saves effort and money later. If you make such a rough calculation, if you plant a seedling of yam, then you can make a lot of money this year...... Cherry quietly made a small calculation, Mei's eyes narrowed, the smile on her face was even more joyful, and she was even a little impatient for the beginning of spring after the year.
The fire in the small stove was still burning, and Cherry picked a small yam, broke a section, stuffed it in, and turned around to greet the business again.
"Who is that little piece for?" Runsheng deliberately winked at Akiyama.
The people of Akiyama are not stupid, but they are more realistic, and they don't bend their hearts. He had already seen that something was wrong with Runsheng, and wondered if he also had the idea of cherry. Hearing him say this at this time, he patted his chest very confidently: "Naturally it's me, who else can there be?" ”
Runsheng didn't speak, just pursed his lips and laughed, laughing very sweetly and happily, and Akiyama snorted heavily.
"Since digging yams, you two have been eating along, haven't you eaten enough?" Cherry hurriedly said, "This piece is reserved for Brother Yu Ze." He also suffered with us today. Speaking of which, she was really a little worried about forcing Miao Yuze to sell her hue. What if he goes back and feels that something is wrong, and then encourages his elder father to suffer for his family? Although she believes in Miao Tianmin's personality very much, she must not prevent hemp, give others some sweetness to eat, and often get along with hemp.
I heard that it was reserved for himself, Miao Yuze actually felt flattered, and the yam that he was picking up and preparing to put on the scale in his hand did not hold it steadily, and it fell all at once, fortunately, the cherry hand is fast, otherwise this thing is brittle and weak, and it will fall to the ground.
"Be careful." The cherry caught the yam root, put it on the scale, moved the weighing, and smiled with a joyful smile: "A total of more than one pound and two taels, counting thirty-six Wen, just charge you thirty-five Wen." ”
"The little girl's account is very clear and refreshing." The man complimented, and reached into his bosom to take the money.
At this moment, there was a sound of the horse's hooves falling to the ground from nowhere, the sound was loud and deep, there should be several horses, and they were well-trained horses, and the sound of horses' hooves was uniform. Strangely, only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, but the shadow of the horse was not seen. The bazaar was full of people, and at this time they stopped their movements and looked towards the place where the sound came.
As the sound of the horses' hooves became more and more deafening, suddenly, a horse jumped out of the alley near the cherry people, and before he could see the appearance of the horseman, five or six horses jumped out from behind, and chased the first one with great momentum. It doesn't look like a guard, but rather a pursuit.
In the crowded market, such tall horses suddenly appeared, and the crowd exploded.
In the panic, someone knocked over the yam basket.
Cherry was busy picking up the yams scattered on the ground, and Runsheng and Akiyama squeezed the crowd out of the crowd for several steps almost instantly, only Miao Yuze was still beside Cherry. Before he could react, the horse that was ahead of him headed straight for the cherry that was bending down.
"Be careful!!" "Beware!!" Runsheng and Akiyama were stunned, but they were helpless a few steps away and couldn't save Cherry.
When the horse arrived, the crowd was even more chaotic, and suddenly scattered in all directions, squeezing Miao Yuze away at once, and there was only one cherry left in the path, and in a panic, her left hand was still holding a yam root tightly, and her right hand was holding the bamboo basket that had just been picked up.
The man in front of him was dressed in a green cloth coat, and when he saw Cherry stopped in the middle of the road, he couldn't help but curse.
Before she could see the man's appearance, Cherry felt dizzy.
