Chapter 11 It's hard to get rid of
When Mu Fan walked on the path home, Grandpa Mu finally stopped weaving the bamboo basket, he stood up and stretched, rubbed his eyes and came to the door of the Mu Fan sisters: "Mu Fan, Mu Fan, are you awake?" Xiao Mulan in the house was woken up and replied sleepily: "Grandpa, my sister is not here, I think I went out." When he finished speaking, he fell asleep.
Old man Mu was angry, he just felt that Mu Fan was sensible yesterday, but he didn't see anyone early in the morning. Alas, he can't do it, he has to go to the town to sell bamboo baskets early, and he won't be able to sell them at a good price if it's late.
The old man went out to the yard to fetch water and wash his face, and was surprised to find that there was a wooden barrel in the corner, and the barrel was filled with big fat fish, and he was very happy. After thinking about it, I felt that Mu Fan should have brought it, and I have to say, old man, you have the truth.
Although the old man didn't know how Mu Fan did it, it didn't prevent him from selling it for money. Mu Fan, the granddaughter, is now getting better little by little, and he is a lot of relief in his heart.
Old Man Mu picked out a few and put them in the basin to give them to his granddaughters, and then found a burden, tied the wooden bucket to one end of the burden, and tied the bamboo basket to the other end with strips of cloth, ready to carry the burden to the town to catch the market.
His eyes drifted to the small house behind the house, and in it lay the woman who had lived a hard life with him all his life, it was his wife, the old woman who had not breathed anymore. 's eyes became firm, she didn't give her a good life before her death, and she won't wronged his hard-working wife again after death.
Walking on the road, I was thinking in my heart, these dozen baskets can probably be sold for more than 100 yuan, a bucket of fish is about more than 10 catties, and can be sold for more than 100 yuan, and I am one step closer to the goal, carrying a jade bracelet in my arms, although the texture is not good, but it was bought for Grandma Mu when I was young, and I originally wanted the bracelet to accompany her into the ground, but now I can't. It should be enough
In the afternoon, I went to the mountains to chop some firewood, which was another income, but when I thought about it, I still had to use it as a bracelet for Grandma Mu in the end, and I felt sad.
I don't know where Mu Fan went, whether he went to fish again, the old man thought of her eldest granddaughter in his heart, fishing is good, she can make money, but how can fish be so easy to catch.
What the old man didn't know was that Mu Fan had collected a lot of medicine, which could be exchanged for enough money for Grandma Mu's funeral, and the remaining Mu Fan planned to renovate the cottage. I will be able to live for a while, otherwise the house will fall when it rains. After slowly earning money, they will build a house for them, a home for them.
These are all things that have not been told to the old man, and Mu Fan is afraid that he will not believe it. The decision is justified by action. Both grandfathers and grandsons rushed to the town, both for the same purpose.
Here, the bamboo basket and fish of the old man Mu were sold out quickly, because he met a very generous lord when he first arrived at the market, not to mention all the wants, he generously threw two taels of silver and said that he didn't need to look for it, the old man was very excited, and finally it was enough. And it doesn't have to be a bracelet.
On the other side, Mu Fan came to a small pharmacy in the town, planning to deal with other medicinal materials first and then go to a larger shop to sell Ganoderma lucidum, but as soon as Pu entered the door, he was kicked out by the guys in the store, and scolded in his mouth, You little liar is here to sell fake medicine again.
Mu Fan reluctantly retreated, and then walked into several pharmacies in a row, and they were all kicked out, it turned out that Mu Fan used to use fake medicines to deceive people, resulting in the fact that now she has real medicines and become fake.
Nowadays, it is difficult to sell medicine, so I have to find another way. Suddenly found that he could come back in a different way, and after a little thought, Mu Fan found a family to climb over the wall and went in, and took advantage of the people's inattention to steal a set of men's clothes hanging in the yard, found a remote place to change them, and was afraid that he would be recognized after changing his clothes, so he wiped mud on his face.
Then he went directly to a big pharmacy with the medicinal materials on his back, and originally planned to collect all the medicinal materials and sell them, but then he thought that Grandpa Mu was old, so he decided to keep the Ganoderma lucidum, after all, such a big Lingzhi is hard to find. In the end, the other medicinal materials were sold for three taels of silver, although I felt a little little, but I was still a little satisfied, because the current predicament was over.
After taking the money, Mu Fan saw the old man as soon as he got out of the pharmacy, and couldn't help but be stunned, although his grandfather was in good health, he couldn't be too tired, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and he frowned and said: "Grandpa, you are tired all night, just leave these things to me, why did you come out by yourself?" ”
The old man's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible doubt and worry, "I can't be idle at home." After speaking, he glanced at the back basket behind her, his face changed, his eyes were dyed with some anger, his body trembled, but his face was trying his best to do anything, "You are reselling fake medicine again, you can't do such a hurtful thing!" ”
The old man's tone was cold, and his eyes were full of disappointment and sadness.
Mu Fan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the original owner had done a lot of such immoral things before, no wonder Grandpa Mu was so excited, the old man was sincere, and he refused to do anything to be sorry for his conscience, she was a doctor in her previous life, so why didn't she think like this.
Go up and put the money into the old man's hand: "Grandpa, I didn't sell fake medicine, this silver is for grandma's funeral, it must be clean!" ”
The old man saw that her face was sincere, and there was indescribable perseverance in his eyes, and when he thought of her changes these days, he believed her words a little, and his face was a lot more relaxed.
The silver in his hand seemed to have become a thousand pounds, looking at Mu Fan's sincere eyes and the tiredness in his eyes, as well as the small broken basket with mud on his back, he stepped forward and patted her shoulder, and the whole heart was completely put down.
Mu Fan breathed a sigh of relief, and followed the old man all the way, but it was not a taste in his heart, the misery of this family was largely inseparable from the original owner, and the old man in front of him, even if he knew, chose to forgive again and again, for the first time, she was full of emotion in her heart.
It's better to have money, and it's easy to do things when you have money. The two of them walked around and went into a store that specializes in funerals, and they had everything in it, so they decided to buy it here. The things needed are a total of three thousand and eleven Wen, and Mu Fan asked the store to collect it and give three thousand Wen. I paid a deposit and agreed to send it to Qingshui Village early the next morning.
The old man Mu, who had solved the matter, was as happy as a child, and because it was still early, the old man decided to take Mu Fan up the mountain to chop some firewood and come back for another run. Although the matter is settled, life still has to go on.
Of course, you have to go home and get the tools before you go up the mountain. Along the way, the old man didn't seem to believe that he had earned five taels of silver today, and asked Mu Fan many times in a row. Mu Fan felt very funny, and he didn't get tired of answering the same question of the old man over and over again.
Everything is getting better, but it seems to be just the calm before the storm.
