In the third year of junior high school, Xu Rujiao got up early in the morning and picked Xu Ruyan up from the bed by the way.

The reason why Shuiquan Village is called Shuiquan Village is because there are many springs here, and the well where the villagers draw water is one of them.

In addition to the spring, there is a small river at the mouth of the village meandering down, the river water is crystal clear, the river has no name, everyone is called "Hetao" and "Hetao", Xu Rujiao also learned by chance that it is a small branch of the Liuhe River many years later.

Now, there is thick ice in the river, and Xu Rujiao pulled Xu Ruyan here to get some pebbles.

It is easy to fry peanuts in a big pot at home, so Xu Rujiao thought of adding some small sand and gravel to stir-fry, so that the heating is even, and the fried peanuts are more fragrant.

The river beach was frozen, and the stone tentacles were cold, so Xu Ruyan didn't want to do it after picking up a little bit.

"Do you want new clothes?" Xu Rujiao has her own way to treat her.

"Okay, I want a red sweater and fleece pants."

"Okay, that's it."

Xu Ruyan endured the freezing of her hands, squatted down and continued to pick up stones, she never thought about whether Xu Rujiao could fulfill this promise, the person who can get the big fruit crisp and meat back, she trusts unconditionally.

When I got home, there was already a fire in the stove, Xu Rujiao put the stones into the pot, a total of five or six catties of peanuts, one pot could not be put down, and it was almost fried three times.

Frying peanuts is a hard work, not to mention that there are so many small pebbles, Xu Guangshi stood in front of the stove and was responsible for stir-frying, and Li Xiuqin controlled the heat at the bottom.

"Sanya, do you really want to sell it?" Li Xiuqin is still a little worried.

Xu Rujiao added a little salt to the pot, she told her parents yesterday that she was going to sell these peanuts where she went to watch a movie, and when she heard Zhi Xiangge say that the movie would be released, she thought about it.

"Don't worry, I'm not selling in our brigade."

The sand and gravel in the iron pot were heated evenly, and the peanuts were slowly fried in it to create a fragrance, Xu Guangshi saw that it was almost there, and shoveled out a few for everyone to taste.

Xu Rujiao took one and knocked it open, and the freshly fried peanuts were hot and hot, and after they were blown cold, they were crunchy and crunchy, and the faint salt flavor added a lot of color.

"Delicious!" Xu Ruyan said sincerely, if she wasn't worried about her new clothes, she would have eaten a few more.

"Dad, it's time to get out of the pot." Xu Rujiao took a dustpan and let the peanuts cool down.

In less than ten o'clock, half a pocket of peanuts brought by the second aunt was fried.

"Shall I borrow you another scale?" Xu Guangshi said.

Xu Rujiao shook her head: "No, just get me a tea bowl." ”

After the peanuts cooled, they were put away in the original bag, and with a tea bowl that the family usually uses to drink water, Xu Rujiao set off after noon, Xu Rujuan was not at ease, and went with her.

The two went to Bagou Village, which is three or four miles away from Shuiquan Village, and Xu Rujiao has an aunt's house here, and she is relatively familiar with it.

Before the movie started, the compound of the production team was already crowded with people, everyone was idle in the New Year, and there was no entertainment in the countryside.

As soon as the two of them found a corner to arrange their things, a girl with braids came over and asked, "Is this peanut for sale?" "She is neatly dressed, and she should be doing well at home.

"Yes", Xu Rujiao took the tea bowl, scooped out a full bowl and said: "A dime a bowl, let's have some, the freshly fried peanuts are very fragrant." ”

The girl didn't hesitate to take out a dime and give it to Xu Rujiao: "Bring me a bowl." ”

"Okay!" Xu Rujiao accepted the money, and immediately asked the girl to reach out and pour the bowl of peanuts into her hand, which happened to be a small handful: "Thank you for your patronage, come again." ”

Xu Rujuan was stunned for a moment: "This is it?" ”

Xu Rujiao smiled: "Otherwise? In fact, doing business is not as terrible as you think, we are willing to sell, people are willing to buy, and both parties are happy. ”

- As long as you don't encounter someone who deliberately sabotages the report. Xu Rujiao gave up the near and far to sell in Bagou Village, which was to take this into account.

Five or six catties of peanuts look a lot, and they can't help but sell when they are really sold, you have a bowl of me and a bowl of it will soon see the bottom, and the movie has not yet started, and the peanuts of the two will be sold out.

Some came late and didn't catch up, so they could only envy others to eat.

It's all a dime or two, Xu Rujiao's small pocket is stuffed with bulging bags, and when she gets home, she counts it, and there are six yuan and nine cents.

Li Xiuqin's surprise was no less than when she first learned that Xu Rujiao was selling couplets: "It's equivalent to more than a pound of money?" ”

She heard the second sister say that the second brother-in-law's peanuts were sent to the agricultural machinery station for purchase, and they were only two cents and a half cents.

"Or, I'll ask your second aunt to ask for peanuts again tomorrow?" Li Xiuqin tasted the sweetness and asked tentatively.

Xu Rujiao shook her head: "When the supply and marketing cooperatives open in two days, I'll go see if there are any melon seeds." ”

Peanuts are just a small test, and selling melon seeds is the business she really wants to do.
