Chapter 23: Hair
Cheng Zhang's eyelids only jumped, and he stammered: "Silly boy, how much money is one hundred and eighty taels of silver, where can you make it up?" ”
Xianghua took her milk's hand and smiled calmly: "Milk, there is nothing difficult in the world, but I am afraid of people with hearts." You listen to this for me, and I'll figure out the rest. ”
Vanilla was stunned when she heard it on the side. She is two years older than Xianghua, she has never thought about such a thing as Panshan, why is Xianghua so bold!
She was cautious, thought for a moment and said, "...... Milk, the mountains behind our village are all called Qingfeng Mountain, isn't it also divided into Xiaoqing Mountain, Daqing Mountain and Dafeng Mountain? Isn't it more convenient to plate a small point first? ”
Xianghua's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands and shouted, "Yes! If you don't say it, I forgot, what I want to do is Xiaoqingshan! ”
Cheng Zhang's face also emitted a red light, and he said happily: "Then there may be a door!" Xianghua, don't be busy yet, I'll go and inquire later. Vanilla, don't talk about this yet. ”
Vanilla smiled and looked at Xianghua, nodded and said, "I know, milk." ”
Ten days later, Ah Shun from Xiangmanlou came again, but as soon as he entered the village, he was stopped by someone and forced him to give him a lot of taro, and somehow sold taro.
Xianghua listened to it and laughed happily: "Their brains turn very fast, you can push it, and if you can't push it, you can put it away, next time they will know that this trick is not good." By the way, did the quail eggs sell well last time? ”
Ah Shun smiled: "Okay, it's selling well!" This is not the shopkeeper to watch the time, and he sent me here as soon as the time came. ”
Xianghua laughed: "That's good!" You wait at home, I'll go up the mountain. ”
Ah Shun said: "Xianghua girl, don't take a hundred, bring as many as you want, we will take all the orders!" ”
Xianghua smiled happily and bent her eyes: "Okay, I know!" ”
Ah Shun sat bored, so he went to see what Xiangmiao and Donglin were doing. The two children, both four or five years old, were holding a ball sewn from rags and throwing it into a round frame on the wall.
"What are you two playing?"
Donglin hugged the fairway: "I'm playing shooting!" ”
Ah Shun compared the height, "This frame is so high, how can you throw it?" ”
Xiangmiao wiped the sweat on her face and said, "Sister said, as long as you jump high, you can throw in!" You see, I've put all six of them! ”
Ah Shun glanced at the ground, and the word "positive" was written crookedly with a small stick on the ground, and there was one more stroke.
Donglin pulled him to look at his straight words, "I've put eight into it!" ”
Ah Shun thought the family was very funny, and asked with a smile: "This game was taught by your sister to play for you, so who taught you this orthography?" ”
Donglin said happily: "Brother Taro taught it!" Brother Taro also taught us to recite poems, 'Go to two or three miles, four or five houses in Yan Village'! ”
"You taro brother is so powerful? I don't look like he's from the village. Ah Shun said casually.
Donglin and Xiangmiao quickly exchanged glances, and said with a smile: "Brother Taro's father taught him, and he taught us again!" ”
While talking, Xianghua had already returned, and this time she brought back one hundred and twenty quail eggs, and according to the price agreed last time, Ah Shun gave six hundred yuan.
Plus the last one, there will be a tael of silver. Don't know how much Xiaoqingshan costs? Xianghua counted.
Xiaoqing Mountain is sandwiched between Daqing Mountain and Dafeng Mountain, and the mountain temple, quail and pepper seedlings are all there, if only it could really be coiled down.
In the blink of an eye, the quail eggs were sold a few more times, and the situation of Xianghua's family gradually improved, and no one dared to bully Xiangmiao and Donglin anymore.
The sun was very good on this day, Xianghua called Xiangmiao and Donglin to come over to wash their hair, the heads of the two little hairy monkeys had not been washed for two months, and Xianghua was a little worried about lice.
It was easy to wash it, and the two little monkeys shivered with cold, and Xianghua rubbed them clean with a dry handkerchief, and called them both to the sun to warm up.
"Come and wash it too." Xianghua beckoned to the taro, "Will you wash it yourself?" ”
Taro's face changed: "Naturally, it will be washed." ”
Xianghua said: "Then you can wash it yourself." I'll have to boil some water, and my dad and I will have to wash it later. ”
Taro watched Xianghua walk away, frowning and rolling up her sleeves.
Xianghua boiled water and came out, and saw that the water was sprinkled on the ground, and Taro's clothes were half wet.
"Are you washing your hair or taking a shower? How did it get like this? ”
Xianghua hurriedly gave him the dry handkerchief, taro held his wet long hair, took the handkerchief to wipe his face, Xianghua saw his clumsy appearance, and reluctantly took it to help him twist his hair.
"I didn't even notice your hair, it's been so long for a few months."
Taro's hair is black and shiny, which is very good-looking, and the movements of Xianghua's hands are lighter.
The taro was also driven into the sun and sunbathed with the two little hedgehogs. Xianghua saw the three of them standing in the bright sunlight and felt very good.
By the time she finished washing her hair, Xiangmiao and Donglin's hair had already dried, and the two little ones were chasing after each other in the yard, looking at them with a smile on the corner of Taro's mouth.
"Come here, I'll grate your hair." Xianghua called him.
Taro came over and sat down in front of her, and Xianghua took a comb and dipped it in some osmanthus oil to comb his hair.
The taro smelled the fragrance and asked, "What is it?" ”
"Osmanthus oil, fragrant, right? It took me a long time to get my dad to agree to buy such a small bottle. ”
Taro hummed in a low voice.
When he was a child, his mother once teased him, wiped his hair with the maid's osmanthus oil, and laughed at him like a beautiful little girl.
Xianghua combed her hair shiny and brought another pair of scissors.
Taro raised his eyes to look at her: "? ”
Xianghua smiled: "Your hair is so long, it's all pierced into your eyes, I'll help you fix it." ”
"You can cut your hair?"
"No, but practice makes perfect. You close your eyes. ”
Taro looked at her not very serious look, and knew that she was going to make a joke, so he closed his eyes and didn't move, letting her toss.
Xianghua bit her lip and frowned, concentrating, comparing and repairing, and made it for a while.
"That's it!" Taro listened to her.
He couldn't see it himself, but the two children, Xiangmiao and Taro, ran over, and smiled when they saw it.
"Hahahaha, Brother Taro, what's the matter with your bangs? Don't be dog-gnawed, right? Hahahaha......"
The taro looked up and felt that it was a little strange, so he reached out and touched it, and only when he touched it did he know what was going on.
Xianghua cut him an oblique bang, slipped down from the left eyebrow, and left a particularly long lock, half-covering his right eye, which was a bit nondescript.
Cheng Linchang happened to come back from outside, saw the strange appearance of taro, and saw Xianghua holding scissors, immediately understood, and laughed, and said a few words to Xianghua:
"Little flowers! You're ...... How do you cut the taro messily! Hahaha...... Fix him quickly! ”
Xianghua squinted and looked at it, and said seriously: "I think it's pretty good-looking, what do you think of taro?" ”
Donglin laughed so much that tears came out, he took the basin next to him and poured half a basin of water into it.
"Brother Taro, look at it yourself, my sister is too naughty!"
