"Mother, you called me?" Chun Tao returned to the hall and saw the shopkeeper Qi, so she knew why Aunt Zhou called her.

"Shopkeeper Qi said that he had something to discuss with you." Aunt Zhou took the things in Chun Tao's hand, "You guys chat, my mother will go and get busy first." ”

My mother is really relieved to let me stay with a man. Looking at Aunt Zhou's back, Chun Tao's thoughts went astray.

"Mrs. Zhou." Shopkeeper Qi recalled Chun Tao, "Yesterday, Xiao Er said that there was an accident in your home, which may affect the supply problem. I'm here today to ask,"

"Hmmm! A large part of it was ruined, and I can't think of a way to do it for the time being. "Chun Tao didn't even think about the supply, but even if she thought about it, it was estimated that she couldn't solve it.

"It's... How's that good? That's what a lot of customers are here for now. ”

"Shopkeeper Qi, to be honest, even if I have a way, I don't have the funds. So... Why don't you do it yourself? ”

"Mrs. Zhou means... Are you going to give me the recipe? "Shopkeeper Qi came to solve the problem, but he didn't expect to get such a big benefit.

"Hmmm! Although it was an accident this time, it was finally us who broke the contract. And, I need money now. ”

"Okay, no problem, how are you going to sell this recipe? Is it a profit distribution or..."

"Take the money directly, and you can do it at the price." Chun Tao couldn't think of what price should be set for this recipe, so she kicked the ball to the shopkeeper Qi.

"This..."Shopkeeper Qi was also stumped, and he was low, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to cooperate again in the future; gave high, and felt sorry for the silver.

After thinking about it a few times, from a long-term perspective, the shopkeeper Qi gave a high price.

"I don't have that much silver with me right now, why don't I have someone send it tomorrow?"

"No need, I want to go to the county seat to buy it, just go and get it myself."

"Then why don't you join us! Just along the way, it was warmer to sit in a carriage. How is it? ”

"Then I'm sorry for you." Chun Tao already had the idea of rubbing the car, and did not shirk it.

Shopkeeper Qi looked around and asked, "Why didn't you see Brother Zhou?" ”

"He's been busy studying lately, so he doesn't have to worry about things at home."

"Brother Zhou is planning to take the county exam in the spring of next year? That..."

"Hmmm! Wait a minute, I'll speak. Shopkeeper Qi was about to say more, but Chun Tao found an excuse to leave.

Chun Tao went to Lamei's room to look at her, and the sweaty person was already a little more comfortable. "I'll make you a basin of water, you wipe it, otherwise the wind blows, and you should catch a cold again."

"Good!" Chun Tao hurriedly brought warm water to Lamei.

"I'm going to the county seat to buy something, Shopkeeper Qi is waiting for me outside, you can eat with your mother for lunch, you don't have to wait for me."

"Okay, don't worry, hurry up! Don't keep people waiting. Lamei took the handkerchief handed by Chun Tao.

"Hmmm! If you're still feeling well, be sure to rest and don't hold on. "Chun Tao is still a little worried,

"Okay, I'm older than you, and I know how to take care of myself."

"Then I'm leaving." Seeing that Lamei had regained her spirits, she thought that nothing would happen. Chun Tao explained to Aunt Zhou again, and then left with the shopkeeper Qi on her back.

Chun Tao didn't rush to buy anything when she arrived in the county, and walked around the county town with a basket on her back. I want to see what business can be done in winter, so that the Zhou family can spend this winter first.

But Chun Tao has been shopping around twice, and still has no thoughts. When he walked to Erzhu's father's stall, Chun Tao was stopped. "Brother and sister, what are you doing here?"

"It's nothing, just shopping around and seeing if there's any business to do." Chun Tao walked to Erzhu's father's stall, thought about it and decided to ask him.

"It's not easy to do any business lately, even my noodle stall, you see, there are no people."

Chun Tao looked at the deserted noodle stall and couldn't help frowning. "Do you know which one is doing the best business right now?"

"Of course it's Wang Ji pastry, this is the New Year! Buying pastries and gifts, and entertaining guests are all musts, and naturally business is good. ”

It's a good idea to make pastries, and as long as the price is lower, business should be good. But now he only has the silver given by the shopkeeper Qi, and if it fails, there will be no chance to make amends. Chun Tao weighed it in her heart, but still didn't make up her mind.

"Hmmm! It's so cold, how can you still come out? ”

"Isn't it the time for the Chinese New Year! It's okay to stay at home, just thinking that I can earn a little bit when I come out. ”

"Yes, then you're busy, I'll go first."

"Okay! Then you should pay attention, there are a lot of thieves when the Chinese New Year is approaching, and you must keep an eye on your money bag. ”

"Hmm!" Chun Tao didn't care, her money was in her arms, and no matter how powerful the thief was, she couldn't take it quietly.

Chun Tao turned a corner and went to Jimin Hall to see March Daddy, and when he left the village this morning, he saw that the door of March's house was closed, and he probably came to the county seat.

"Hello, I... I'm looking for someone. ”

"Looking for whom? What disease do you have? When was it delivered? A series of questions, Chun Tao was stunned for a while, and then slowly began to speak.

"Find... Leg fall... Fell, ex... No, yesterday..."There have been so many things lately, Chun Tao can't even remember when Daddy sent it to the county seat in March."

When he was in trouble, he ran out of the month of Layue, October and September. "Sister Chuntao, why are you here?"

"I'll take a look." When the man saw that someone was receiving a spring peach, he went busily with himself.

"Daddy is behind, I'll take you there," October stepped forward and took Chun Tao's hand.

Not to be outdone, Layue took her other hand. "Sister Chun Tao, I'll take you there! It's not safe to follow her. ”

"Why is it not safe to go on such a small road?" In October, the argument was argued.

"Who fell on all fours that morning?" Layue said a word, so that October had nothing to say, sulking, and dragged the spring peach in her direction. Layue was not happy either, and pulled the spring peach in his direction.

Chun Tao was dragged around by the two children, and her hands hurt a little, but it was hard to blame, but fortunately September was still there.

"Okay, don't make trouble, Sister Chuntao's hands are going to be torn off by you." September stepped forward and slapped the hands of the two off.

When the two children were messing around, they had already arrived outside a room in the backyard of Jimin Hall.

Chun Tao knocked on the door and shouted, "Auntie, are you there?" I'll take a look at Uncle Zhao. ”

As soon as the words fell, a voice came from inside. "Is it a spring peach? Come on in! ”

Chun Tao pushed open the door and entered, the smell of heat and bitter medicine came to his face, Chun Tao rubbed his nose that had been violently impacted, and walked in.

"Why are you here?" March sat on the chair, sorting out something, March Niang was sitting on the edge of the bed and helping March Dad wipe his face, and there was no June figure in the house.

"Come and see Uncle Zhao, are you better?"

"I'm better, I'm going back today." It was March Niang who was talking.

"Go back today?"

"Yes! Dr. Yang said, then drink the medicine and recuperate for a while, and it will be fine. Living here costs a lot of money a day, and I really can't afford to live. Besides, there was an accident at home again, and I couldn't wait. ”

"That's... Do you want me to help? ”

"No, June has already gone looking for the car. They'll help me clean up in March, and you'll help us solve the biggest problem, and we'll be able to solve the rest ourselves. We'll pay you back as soon as possible. ”

"You treat me very well, I should help you, I will see the outside world when I say this, I am not short of money, you don't have to worry." When Chun Tao said this, March looked up at her and didn't speak.

"How can there be no shortage of money? I heard March say that the robbers had come to the village the night before and had taken everything they could from the village. Your family is the first, and it's definitely more serious. ”

"Actually, it's okay, I hid my valuables, and I'm really not short of money. Your home is also damaged, and your children are small and need more money. ”

Considering the current situation, looking at the three children eavesdropping outside the door, March Niang no longer insisted. "That's okay, when we get better, we'll pay you back right away."

"Good! Then I'm going to buy something. "There is no need for help here, Chun Tao is ready to leave and do her own thing.

"I'll send you." March, who had been listening silently, suddenly got up and walked to the door.

Chun Tao still cared about yesterday's events, and hesitated for a while but followed.

On the way from the backyard to the door, March didn't say a word until Chun Tao stood at the door, and she stared at her for a long time.

"You... What are you going to say? ”
