Chapter 132 Self-created sour plum juice
After spring, the weather gradually warmed up. Every day at noon, at a small stream next to Qingshui Village, you can see the usual women who talk everywhere drowsy in the shadows of the stream.
Mu Fan never thought that the technology in this era was so backward, and sure enough, life will surprise you everywhere.
I'm starting to miss a little nostalgic for the days when there was air conditioning and cold drinks.
In this era, rich families can buy some ice to cool down, and those who don't have money can only heat up.
Old Man Mu looked at the two sisters Mu Fan and Mulan holding the pu fan and kept fanning, and jokingly said, "You little dolls are getting more and more delicate, how can it be like when we were children, the weather is much hotter than this, and we have to work outside, otherwise there will be no food." After speaking, he waved his hand.
Mu Fan knew that what these old people liked most was to compare their age with the present.
In her previous life, when she was in the hospital, she had seen this kind of scene the most, and she didn't feel much at that time, but this moment was a little touching.
Hearing this, Mulan stopped doing it, "Grandpa, you can't say that!" The Master taught us that no one should boast about it, and that pride and complacency will overturn. ”
Mu Fan couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, can this verse also be used like this?
Old Man Mu laughed when he heard this, touched Mu Lan's head and patted it, "Then how did your master teach you!" ”
Mulan puffed up her chest proudly, and took the posture of Mr. Teaching, "Don't be too proud and complacent, you must know how to be humble, and you can't compare with others, and you will suffer in the end." ”
"Oh! So how can this be used here? Grandpa Gu on the side was also interested.
"Didn't Grandpa compare us just now?" Mulan's glance amused a room of people.
Old Man Mu laughed for a while, and looked at Mu Fan thoughtfully, "Mu Fan, what do you think?" ”
Mu Fan looked at Old Man Mu's eyes and said word by word, "People's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants." ”
"The human heart is not enough, and the snake swallows the elephant." Old Man Mu read along.
Glancing at Grandpa Gu, the two burst out laughing.
"A good sentence is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant." Grandpa Gu glanced at Mu Fan appreciatively.
At night, Mu Fan was really hot and couldn't sleep, so he took a dip in the yard.
I don't know if it's the same hot Old Man Mu who can't stand it also came out, "It's so late, can't you sleep?" ”
Mu Fan turned his head and saw the old man who was over half a hundred years old looking at her kindly, and raised a smile, "Grandpa hasn't slept yet." ”
Old Man Mu sat on the small bench next to Mu Fan, looked at the sky and sighed, "Your grandmother has never enjoyed anything in her life." After a pause, he slowly spoke, "When I was young, I thought that I must let her live a good life, but I didn't do it, and when I got old, I felt that she should enjoy happiness after working hard all her life, but I still broke my trust with her." ”
"Grandpa, you ......" Mu Fan thought of comforting words when Old Man Mu spoke, but she couldn't understand this kind of lifelong feeling, at least not now, her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
"When I was young, my heart was soft, looking at the two abandoned babies, I couldn't bear it, so I hugged it home, and your grandmother made a few days of trouble with me for that matter, and finally treated them as more painful than her own. But in the end, your grandmother died, and none of them came. ”
Mu Fan couldn't cry anymore after hearing this, she grabbed Old Man Mu's hand, "Grandpa, I'm ignorant." ”
Old Man Mu patted her hand, "Mu Fan! Grandpa and grandma don't blame you, grandpa told you so much today, I just want to tell you not to regret it. ”
Mu Fan looked at Old Man Mu and nodded constantly, opened his mouth and said nothing.
When Mu Fan got up the next morning, he hid in the kitchen, and the old man Mu secretly looked inside at the door, and kept muttering in his mouth, "What is this girl doing, could it be that her words yesterday scared her, as if she was crying fiercely." ”
"Old man Mu, what are you looking at?" Grandpa Gu didn't know where it came from.
Old Man Mu hurriedly covered Grandpa Gu's mouth and made a shut-up motion, "Be quiet." ”
"Why be quiet!" Grandpa Gu whispered to him.
"Don't you think there's anything wrong with Mu Fan today!"
"Nope!" Grandpa Gu touched his beard and said.
Old Man Mu's eyes widened and he pointed to the kitchen, "You're taking a closer look." ”
Grandpa Gu wiped his eyes, leaned closer and continued to look, Old Man Mu's expression didn't seem to be joking, but he still shook his head after reading it.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Gu, what are you doing here early in the morning!"
Old Man Mu, who was staring at the big-eyed man, suddenly looked at the little granddaughter behind him with a smile, "Mulan!" Why don't you go to school today! ”
"Recently, the school has been too hot, and my husband said that I would take three days off, so I will go to my sister first."
As soon as Old Man Mu opened his mouth, he saw Mulan running over like a gust of wind.
As soon as Mulan entered the door, she saw Mu Fan busy, "Sister, what are you doing?" ”
Mu Fan glanced at her, "Aren't you going to the academy today?" ”
"Today's holiday, sister, I'll help you light the fire!" As soon as Mulan finished speaking, she took a stance, "By the way, just now I saw Grandpa and Grandpa Gu standing at the door muttering for a long time, but they just didn't come in." ”
The people outside the door suddenly became messy in the wind, Mu Fan glanced out of the door, and the two hurriedly ran away.
After Mu Fan was busy all morning, he saw that the time was a little late, so he ordered a bowl of noodles per person.
During the meal, Mu Fan roughly told his family about his plans, "I prepared a kind of sour plum juice that is specially designed to relieve the heat, and I decided to sell it in our village first to see the effect, Mulan, and serve the soup." ”
Mulan took two bowls of fuchsia soup and put it in front of the two grandfathers. The two glanced at each other, but they didn't start for a long time, and Mu Fan also saw their concern, "Grandpa, Grandpa Gu, don't worry, this soup is absolutely safe, Mulan drank a few bowls when he boiled it in the morning." ”
The two of them reached out to take the bowl of something they had never seen before.
When I took the first sip, I didn't feel much of it, and gradually I wanted to drink it more and more, and I thought it was a good thing in this hot summer.
After Grandpa Gu finished drinking, he looked at Mu Fan with bright eyes, "Mu Fan, how did you come up with this, it's really amazing." And a thumbs up.
Old Man Mu also nodded appreciatively, "You said that you have already thought about it, then we will fully support it, and if you need help, just tell us." ”
Grandpa Gu also nodded on the side.
Mulan hurriedly jumped out, "Sister, sister, I want to help too." ”
Mu Fan bent down and pinched Mu Lan's face, "You! Your study is the greatest help to me. ”
Mulan's mouth was raised, and after saying "my sister looks down on people" she ran away.
Mu Fan took a pot of sour plum soup and went out, and came to the only shop in the village that sold steamed buns, which was actually a shed.
Mu Fan walked in and arched his hand to the boss inside.
The boss is really not good-looking, and his eyes bloom when he sees the guest coming, "What is this guest officer eating?"
"Boss, I'm not here to eat steamed buns." Mu Fan felt that as soon as his words came out, the boss's smile subsided.
The boss seemed to recognize Mu Fan, and his face was even more ugly, "You don't eat steamed buns, then why are you coming to me, don't disturb my business, go quickly!" Come on! ”
"Boss, I really have something to look for you, you see, otherwise I'll finish talking first and make up my mind." Mu Fan didn't feel angry because of his attitude, after all, Mu Fan, well! She's notorious!
The boss gave her a contemptuous look, "What's the matter with you little girl!" You're welcome to be careful in messing around. He also pushed Mu Fan on the spot.
How could the already thin body be pushed so hard.
The owner of this bun shop is related to the fat aunt in the village, and it's normal to not get used to seeing her.
Mu Fan got up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, and sighed, there was no way, he could only go back first, and he was thinking of a way.
After returning home, Mu Fan talked about the lack of shops and tools.
Finally, I discussed with Grandpa Mu and Grandpa Gu, and felt that I could set up a stall at the door of my house, which was close to home and convenient.
As for the barrels and carts that need to be used, they can be bought in the town, Mu Fan was originally worried about what would happen if he failed.
Old Man Mu said, "Anyway, they are all necessities, and it is better to rent them from others than to buy them ourselves, even if we don't use them in the future, we can rent them to others, or sell them." ”
Mu Fan immediately decided to go to the town to buy barrels and carts.
Because I was in a hurry to use Mu Fan to exchange deposits, after filling in the address, I didn't forget to ask the boss to send it over as soon as possible.
The boss's smiling eyes bloomed, "Okay, girl, don't worry." ”
After everything was ready, Mu Fan studied different soups at home, and at this time, Mulan circled around her indefinitely.
The whole village was surprised that Mr. Mu's family bought a board car, and most people were skeptical, but on the day the board car was delivered, it really caused a sensation.
Most of them stood at the door of Mu's house with red eyes and said sour words, and Mu Yuan and Mu Lin both expressed their disbelief when they heard about it.
Zhang Xiaoqiao still had a mind and proposed to take a look.
Walking to the door, Mu Lin was anxious, when he came to borrow money, he kept saying that he had no money, and now he bought such a big board car, didn't he treat him as a fool? Mu Lin, who was about to go in, was grabbed by the rational Zhang Xiaoqiao.
"Why are you stopping me?" The more Mu Lin thought about it, the more angry he became, watching his daughter-in-law drag him home.
"You're stupid! You've just been in, what can you do? Your father really has private money, and we have to think about it in the long run! ”
Mu Lin looked at Zhang Xiaoqiao thoughtfully, and nodded.
As soon as summer came, there were more cordyceps and grasses, and Mu Fan was not afraid of anything, she was afraid of these snakes and insects, and the matter of collecting medicine was put aside by her.
