Chapter 23: The Sale of Rabbits
It turned out that after Gu Xinning returned to the capital with two little rabbits, it did arouse the love of many people.
The two little rabbits seem to be popular, well-behaved and cute, they don't even casually, they follow Gu Xinning every day, and they follow her wherever she goes.
Not to mention the little girls of the big families, even the maids and maids who are used to seeing animals in the countryside, they all like it, and they have asked where they bought the rabbits.
In the end, Mrs. Gu had no choice but to agree to come down and help ask if there was anything else.
didn't directly say the location of this tenant, because he was afraid that there would be too many people to disturb him, and he was afraid that those foxes and fake tigers would hurt the nearby villagers, so he asked his son Gu Xiuyuan to go on this trip today.
Gu Xinning finally listened patiently to what Liu Zhuangtou said, for fear that people would not agree, let go of his brother's hand, stepped forward and said, "We will give money!" ”
"Heart! Don't be rude! Gu Xiuyuan pulled his sister back, and nodded apologetically to Miao Dahai, "Little sister is stubborn, don't be surprised." ”
Miao Dahai has never seen such a polite and noble son, if he meets a domineering person, he can still fight hard to protect his wife and daughter, but when he meets this kind of gentle son, he doesn't know what to do, rubbing his rough and dark hands, and smiling blackly, "No hindrance, no hindrance." ”
Miao Fu stood up with the courage to stand up, and arched his hand like the rivers and lakes, "Childe doesn't know, these rabbits are all raised by my sister, as for whether to sell them or not, it depends on her meaning." ”
Gu Xiuyuan nodded secretly, as soon as he came in just now, he looked at this home, it can be said that he is beyond imagination!
However, it is such a poor family, although he is a little helpless when he sees them, but he does not grovel, especially this young man who looks two years older than himself, obviously the green tendons on his nervous fist are bursting, but he still cares about his sister.
I'm also a person who has a sister.,Understand the mood of being an older brother.,If someone suddenly comes to ask for something that is beloved by my sister.,I'll do the same.。
When Gu Xinning heard this, he let go of his brother's hand, ran to Meow Meow's side, and his soft little hand pulled up another soft little hand, and begged, "Little sister, you can sell me the rabbit, okay?" You're so cute, my sister likes you so much! ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his other hand and rubbed her delicate little face.
Meow Meow's face was full of black lines, looking at the little girl who was half a head taller than herself, and her eighteen-year-old heart almost collapsed, was she being molested by a three or four-year-old girl?
Gu Xinning really likes this little girl who looks younger than herself, she wanted to come up and talk just now, but now she finally seized the opportunity and said that she wouldn't let go.
Everyone in the courtyard looked at the two little girls.
Meowth tilted her head and innocently asked, "I'm three and a half years old, how old are you?" ”
Meowth thought to herself, I'm just a little malnourished and haven't grown taller!
But I saw Gu Xinning say happily, "I'm four and a half years old!" You're going to call me sister! ”
Miao Miao is completely convinced!
Gu Xiuyuan really couldn't see that his sister had forgotten about buying rabbits, but he only cared about fooling other people's little girls, so he stepped forward and reminded, "Little girl, if you are reluctant to sell it, tell your brother, and your brother will not be difficult for you." ”
Meow Meow's mouth opened slightly: What a gentle little boy!
Miao Le was not happy, jumped out from behind the eldest brother, stood between his sister and Gu Xiuyuan, and stretched out his arms, "Meow Meow is my sister!" ”
After speaking, he glared at Gu Xinning, who was holding his sister's hand, if it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, he would have pushed it away in the morning.
In the end, Meow Meow returned to normal and nodded, "The rabbit is sold, come here!" ”
Then a large group of people went to the backyard.
Although there is a large group of rabbits in the backyard, the brothers of the Miao family are clean and tidy, and there is no bad smell at all.
When Gu Xinning was tired of running around the rabbit, everyone sat down to talk about business.
Meow Meow secretly tugged on her brother's sleeve, and her little finger compared it to an "eight".
Miao Qiang nodded, stepped forward and said, "You've already seen rabbits, how many do you want this time?" ”
Gu Xiuyuan looked around, pointed to one of the rabbits the size of an adult's palm, and said, "We all want such a big one!" ”
The Miao family gasped.
Miao Qiang stabilized his mind, secretly compared the word "seven" to his sister, and nodded his head.
Miao Qiang said, "Originally, I thought that you would buy one, and it would be calculated at 800 Wen, but now you want so much, then 700 Wen." ”
Miao Dahai frowned, "Second child!" ”
Gu Xiuyuan and Qi Jingchen glanced at each other, thinking that Miao Dahai was complaining about his son's unauthorized price reduction.
But when he saw Miao Dahai coming forward, he said apologetically, "Two sons, Liu Zhuangtou, my kid is not sensible, so I made you laugh." These little rabbits, one fifteen wen, you can pick and choose! ”
Meow Meow Forehead: This dad is too sincere!
But she didn't stop it, wanting to see what the two teenagers meant.
I saw Gu Xiuyuan and Qi Jingchen also looked surprised.
Gu Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled, "You misunderstood, the rabbits you love are different from ordinary rabbits, so naturally you can't bid according to ordinary rabbits, in this way, last time it was one or two pieces of silver, and this time we bought more, so it will be eight hundred yuan!" ”
Miao Dahai can't see that this is any different from the usual rabbits, isn't it just better-looking, isn't it still a refinement?
However, seeing that Liu Zhuangtou also shook his head at himself, he was silent.
So, Liu Zhuangtou beckoned the people behind him to catch the rabbits, and caught twenty rabbits!
Sixteen taels of silver, a penny is a lot to pay.
Before leaving, Gu Xiuyuan looked at the plate of silkworm cocoons and asked, "This is also your family?" ”
Miao Dahai nodded and replied seriously.
Gu Xiuyuan asked Qi Jingchen, "Doesn't your family have a silk village, do they accept silk?" ”
Qi Jingchen stared at Miao Le and Miao Miao from beginning to end, and when he heard his cousin's question, his eyes rolled and said, "Let them send it when the time comes, do they dare not accept it?" ”
Then while everyone was not paying attention, he whispered beside Miao Le and Meow Meow, "If you dare to talk nonsense, I will let people destroy your silk!" ”
Meow Meow ignored his threat, just happy, originally thinking of finding an opportunity to go to the county by himself, find a good seller, and there will be a large amount of silk output in the spring of next year.
I didn't expect such a good thing to happen, so I immediately forgot about the little monk pheasant, and saluted Qi Jingchen happily, "Then thank you son!" You can rest assured, our silk must be the best! ”
Qi Jingchen snorted lightly, but he seemed to be infected by the little girl's happy expression, and nodded awkwardly.
When everyone left, Miao Dahai and his wife were still a little relieved.
Miao Qiang took the silver and bit it down, bared a mouthful of big white teeth, and boasted, "Meow Meow said in the morning that rabbits can be sold, I still don't believe it!" This time I'm convinced! ”
