Chapter 33 The Bitter Carrier Pigeon
But if you have a lot of reputation, when you quarrel with others, in the eyes of outsiders, this is reasonable.
As a result, the enlightened Qingbao has since embarked on a dark road with honey on the outside and a sword on the inside......
Huang Liuniang went back to her parents' house and got the money sponsored by her brothers, afraid that something would happen to her and the money would be gone, so Huang Liuniang immediately wanted to build a house. However, just in time for the spring ploughing to begin, the construction of the house was still delayed for a few days.
After Huang Liuniang came back to life, the work at home didn't need to be done with Qingbao's help, Qingbao had nothing to do, so he thought about selling the big bag of sugar hidden in the cabinet.
He asked Huang Liuniang about the price of sugar melon seeds and peanuts, and after having a bottom in their hearts, Qingbao and Erzhu went to the city again, of course, under the guise of going to see their grandmother.
On the way, Qingbao bribed Erzhu at the price of two pieces of sugar, and Erzhu obediently held the candy, followed behind his sister, and headed towards the city.
This time, due to the limited raw materials, Qingbao didn't make too many peanuts and melon seed candy, so she didn't plan to sell it to any pastry grocery store or anything, but to sell it in the streets and alleys, so that she should be able to get a little more.
Qingbao and Erzhu, shouting all the way and selling all the way, picked up the place where there were many children, and sure enough, the child couldn't help but be greedy, so he came to buy Qingbao's peanuts and melon seeds candy, and the business of the brother and sister was not bad.
At noon, the two of them didn't go to their grandmother's house, one of them bought two meat buns, ate them fragrantly, and then began to sell them in good spirits.
In the afternoon, there were probably some children who wanted to take a nap, and the business was not as good as in the morning, and Qingbao and Erzhu were also tired, so they sat on the steps at the door of the house to rest.
Qingbao was idle, so he shouted a few times weakly: "Sweet toothless peanut melon seed candy, not sweet, no money......"
The door behind him creaked open, startling Qingbao.
When she looked back, she couldn't help but be startled again.
No, such a coincidence?
The little guy who came out here, how can he look like a little fat man more and more!
The little fat man is getting more and more, he hasn't gained weight recently, and he has lost a little weight, and it seems that those two big eyes are getting bigger and more watery.
As soon as he saw Qingbao, the little guy also exclaimed in surprise: "Sister, are you coming to play with me?" ”
Qingbao is full of black lines, who is coming to play with him, she doesn't even know that this is his house, okay?
But he can be regarded as his own life-saving little benefactor, Qingbao did not snub him, and greeted him: "It turns out that your family lives here?" ”
The little fat man came over more and more, and dragged Qingbao to the door: "Sister, go to my house to play, I'll give you a snack." ”
Qingbao naturally didn't want to go to his house, so he couldn't get up when he sat on the ground, so he reached out and took a piece of candy from Erzhu's arms, handed it to him, and said, "The candy I made will be given to you to eat." ”
As soon as he saw that there was something to eat, the little fat man Yue Yue didn't drag her, but sat back next to Qingbao, took a small bite of candy, pursed his lips and smiled: "It's so sweet, it's delicious." ”
Erzhu tugged on Qingbao's sleeve beside him: "Liuya, how do you know him?" ”
Qingbao pointed to his head and said, "Last time I broke my head, it was his aunt who helped me bandage it." ”
Speaking of evening smoke, Qingbao couldn't help but ask casually: "Yueyue, where is your aunt?" She was actually very curious, is Wanyan the concubine of the little fat man's father, or the sister of the little fat man's mother?
The little fat man replied without thinking about it: "I said I wanted to buy candy, and she went back to get the money." ”
Since he also lives here, Wanyan should be his father's concubine.
The beauty is married, and Qing Baozhen is sad for Dr. Lin.
The little fat man quickly finished eating the piece of candy, licking his white little fingers unsatisfied, looking at Qingbao's big eyes with a watery expectation. This little guy is already beautiful, and with this pitiful little eyes, Qingbao suddenly became cute. And when his hand did not obey, he took another piece of candy and gave it to him. The little fat man cheered, and began to nibble on the piece of candy little by little, and his expression of satisfaction was like that of a kitten with full milk.
Just as Qingbao was looking at Xiao Zhengtai, another figure came out of the door.
Qingbao looked back, isn't it the big beauty's evening smoke?
Wanyan saw that Qingbao was also stunned, and asked in some surprise: Liuya, why are you here? ”
Qingbao pointed to the sugar in Erzhu's arms and said, "My brother and I came to sell sugar, and I was tired and wanted to rest for a while, but I didn't expect to sit at the door of your house." ”
Wanyan smiled: "This is really a coincidence. ”
Qingbao said to Erzhu: "Second brother, it's this sister, who helped me bandage my head last time, and also helped me hire a doctor." ”
Erzhu stood up and saluted Wanyan decently: "Thank you for saving my sister." ”
"No thanks, it's me who has this fate with Liuya."
Saying that, Wanyan said more and more to the little fat man: "Yue Yue, do you like to eat this candy?" Auntie will help you buy it, okay? ”
"Good!" The little fat man replied more and more simply.
Wanyan didn't ask how much it was, but said to Qingbao: "I didn't get enough money, Liuya, you come in with me to get the money." ”
No way? Take a money and ask her to follow up? She didn't want to go into someone else's house.
But then Qingbao understood that she asked her to withdraw the money, but it was just an excuse, and she had something to say to herself.
The connection between her and Wanyan is only two people, a little fat man and a doctor Lin.
Thinking of the relationship between Wanyan and Dr. Lin, Qingbao guessed what Wanyan called her.
Qingbao didn't want to care about this idle matter, but seeing Wanyan looking at her with begging eyes, and thinking of Dr. Lin and the two hugging each other and crying, Qingbao sighed secretly, stood up and followed Wanyan into the courtyard.
Although the courtyard looks average from the outside, it is quite large inside, and there are all garden pavilions.
The steps they sat on were probably the back door, and they were unguarded, and they came in directly from the garden.
It seems that the family background of the little fat man's family is still very good.
Wanyan led Qingbao through the garden and into a small courtyard closest to the garden.
This yard is not big, but it is full of flowers and plants, and it is very delicately maintained.
Wanyan said to Qingbao as she walked: "This is where I live, except for the two Yahuan, no one comes." ”
When you enter the house, there is a fragrance in your nose, and the house is very clean and elegant.
Poured a glass of water for Qingbao, brought a plate of dim sum, and Wanyan said: "Liuya, you eat a dim sum here first, and I'll get you the money." ”
said that she was taking money, but she spread out the paper and began to grind the ink and write.
Qingbao sighed, it seems that he is a matchmaker.
Wanyan's letter was written very long, and Qingbao had eaten three pieces of dim sum before she finished writing.
Hurriedly sealing the letter into the envelope, Wanyan blushed and whispered, "Liuya, give this to Dr. Lin." ”
Afraid of being seen, Qingbao hurriedly stuffed the letter into his sleeve.
Wanyan then went and brought a small ingot of silver and handed it to Qingbao: "If you come to sell sugar in the future, come to the back door and shout a few times." The more he loves sugar, the more I buy more for him. ”
What else could Qingbao say, he could only nod and say, "Got it." ”
Wanyan wrapped up the rest of the snacks and gave them to Qingbao to take, and then sent her out, and did not forget to tell her: "Don't tell others about this, or I will be beaten to death." ”
Qingbao patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, my mouth is tight." ”
After going out, Qingbao asked Erzhu to give all the sugar to Wanyan, and then said goodbye to Wanyan and the little fat man.
The little fat man reluctantly said to Qingbao: "Sister, you can still play with me in the future, the candy you make is really delicious." ”
"Don't call me sister, okay? I have a name. "Being called sister by a seven or eight-year-old child, Qingbao is uncomfortable to listen to.
The little fat man opened his mouth more and more: "Liuya! ”
Qingbao is depressed to death, this title is even more earthy!
"Qingbao, my name is Xia Qingbao."
Under Qingbao's repeated emphasis, the little fat man shouted more and more obediently: "Baby! ”
This salutation made Qingbao scream.
Since crossing here, no one has ever called her baby again, they are all called Liuya.
The little fat man's shout reminded Qingbao of her parents who had been calling her "baby".
I'm okay here, although I'm a little poor, but I'm alive every day.
I just don't know how sad and sad my parents will be without myself.
The pain of losing a daughter is not something that can be erased in a short period of time.
Father......
Mom......
Thinking of the sadness, Qingbao lost any mood, and left Yueyue's house with the second pillar.
I went to the market again to buy sugar and peanuts and melon seeds, in order to reduce costs, this time the peanuts and melon seeds were bought raw.
After buying it, Qingbao and Erzhu planned to go home.
Along the way, Erzhule, who earned the first money in his life, walked vigorously, and when he saw Qingbao sighing all the time, he thought she was tired, and carried her several times.
The brother and sister walked for ten miles, and by the time they reached the outside of the village, it was almost dark.
Qingbao looked at the village that was lost in the twilight, sighed long, and still suppressed the thoughts of Xia's father and Xia's mother.
She misses her father and her mother very much, but since she has crossed over here, what's the use of thinking about them?
Helpless life always has to go on.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, the two saw Xia Shouping striding out of the village, apparently wanting to pick them up.
The excited Erzhu began to shout from afar: "Dad, Dad, we're back!" Then he pulled Qingbao all the way over.
Xia Shouping held one in one hand and asked the two of them, "Why didn't you come back earlier, it's all dark." ”
Erzhu danced and said, "Dad, Liuya is so powerful, we made a lot of money today." ”
Xia Shouping immediately stopped and asked in surprise: "Make money?" How can Liuya make money at such a small age? Don't talk nonsense. ”
Qing Bao said in his heart, sooner or later, the matter of selling sugar can't be hidden from them, just say it if you like, and it didn't stop Erzhu.
Under Erzhu's description, Xia Shouping had to believe that Liuya, who was only six years old, would really make money.
Xia Shouping touched Qingbao's head and said, "Liuya, why do you have such a long head, why are you so smart." It must be with your mother, my father was stupid when he was a child. ”
