The straw hats were stacked together, forming a hill, and Chen Changsheng carried it in his hand along with the snakeskin bag.

"Remember to drink the medicine while it's hot." With the bulging snakeskin bag behind his back, Chen Changsheng opened the gate of the courtyard with one hand, and when he was about to go out, he looked at Bai Ruoqing, who was still weaving a straw hat, and reminded: "The hat is enough, and it won't be sold when the time comes." ”

After speaking, Chen Changsheng carried the sack and walked towards the field.

When he came to the field, the sun began to be scorching, Chen Changsheng took out a straw hat from the snakeskin bag and put it on his head, and took out a few more and put them on the grass. "Shimoda must-have! It's cool and doesn't sweat! Chen Changsheng, who was wearing a straw hat on his head, shouted, and at the same time praised the benefits of the straw hat in a different way.

"Others hide from the sun, you work, and the yield per mu is 1,08. Don't panic with the scorching sun on your head, as soon as you wear a straw hat, it's cold ......"

"What is this thing, why haven't you seen it?" As he was shouting, a puzzled voice came.

Looking in the direction of the sound, I saw a dark-skinned young man, looking at the straw hat on the grass with curious eyes, his fingers moving slightly.

"This is a straw hat, used to block the sun, and wearing it on the head is not only cool but also breathable." Chen Changsheng said with great interest, and at the same time took off the straw hat on his head and leaned his head forward, "You see that I have been sitting under the sun for a long time without sweating at all. ”

Staring at Chen Changsheng's head for a long time, the man's eyes showed a deep joy, and he pointed to the straw hat on the ground and said, "How much is it?" ”

"Twenty Wen."

"It's a bit pricey."

Chen Changsheng noticed that the man's hand pointing at the straw hat was obviously shrunk, and most of the joy in his eyes dissipated, and he hurriedly said, "You can try it on." ”

The man's shrunken hand paused, raised his eyes to look at Chen Changsheng, and said in a surprised tone: "Really? Then he took a straw hat and put it on his head.

"It's really cooler." The man who stayed in the sun felt the coolness from the bamboo strips, and couldn't help it, but he still reluctantly put down his hat and muttered in a low voice: "It's a pity." ”

Looking at the man's expression, Chen Changsheng knew that the time was almost up, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said: "This hat is a delicate job, one person can only make one a day, and twenty wen is considered cheap, so it's good, if you are new to the city, this straw hat will be considered a gift from me." ”

As he spoke, Chen Changsheng suppressed the man's hand and brought the straw hat back to his head.

"Thank you, boss." The man felt the coolness coming from the top of his head, his simple face was full of excitement, his rough palm kept rubbing the straw hat on his head, and he picked up the hoe on the side and walked happily towards the field.

"Ah Yang, are you lazy today, why is there a little sweat on your face!" In the afternoon, people packed up their farming tools and prepared to go home, when a joking voice sounded in the fields.

When the man in the straw hat heard the sound, he saw a man of the same age with a hoe on his shoulder standing on the ridge of the field, waving his arms.

"I ...... I didn't be lazy, and today's Han Shao is because of this straw hat. Being shouted like this, the man's speech was a little slurred, and he stammered.

"The thing on your head is a straw hat, why haven't I seen it." The man looked curiously at the man's head, ran over a few steps, and was about to take off his straw hat to take a look.

"This straw hat is mine, I'll take you to buy it if you want it." The rough hand pressed the straw hat, the man took a few steps back, and suddenly remembered that his kindness in this straw hat had not been repaid, and recommended it to the man, while pointing to the direction where Chen Changsheng was.

"Take me there." The man was intrigued, picked up the man's hoe and walked in the direction of his fingers.

"This way!" Chen Changsheng waved his hand at the man and shouted loudly, but Yu Guang looked at the man beside him from time to time, Chen Changsheng knew that the business of straw hats had started.

"Boss, take my brother to see." The man came to Chen Changsheng and said happily, while looking at the man on the side.

Following the man's words, Chen Changsheng's eyes were completely focused on the man's body, and he picked up a hat and asked, "Try it." ”

"Thank you." Looking at the straw hat handed over, the man's eyes showed a strong interest, and he took it with his hand and put it on his head.

The cold feeling ran through the scalp, a smile appeared on the man's face, and he scolded the man next to him with a hammer: "If you don't recommend such a good thing to me earlier, it will hurt me to bask in the sun for a day." ”

"This thing is good, how much does it cost?" He took out his hand to his waist, took out dozens of copper coins, and asked Chen Changsheng.

"Twenty Wen." Facing the cheerful people, Chen Changsheng also showed a smile on his face, after so long, he finally experienced the feeling of the original shop.

"Give." Twenty copper coins arrived on Chen Changsheng's outstretched palm, and he couldn't put it down and touched the straw hat he had taken off, the man stood up, patted the man next to him, and shouted, "Let's go." ”

"Walk slowly."

The man and the man walked away slowly, Chen Changsheng put away the straw hat on the ground, and walked towards the small courtyard.

As soon as the gate of the courtyard was opened, the white smoke continued to steam, and the hazy white figure was in front of the fire, fiddling with a pot of water and roasted sweet potatoes.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Bai Ruoqing paused for a moment, and saw Chen Changsheng, who was dragging a sack of straw hats, and shouted, "It's time to eat." ”

As he spoke, Bai Ruoqing used firewood to pull the sweet potatoes out of the fire.

Stacking the straw hats aside, Chen Changsheng picked up the hot sweet potatoes from the ground, brushed off the charred skin and ate them.

Halfway through eating, Chen Changsheng's eyes caught a glimpse of Bai Ruoqing, who was restless, and looked at himself for a while, and then at the straw hat, his eyes were full of worry.

"Did the one or two pieces of silver I gave you have already been spent, am I useless, just a burden." Bai Ruoqing's action of eating sweet potatoes suddenly paused, looked at Chen Changsheng and asked.

"If you don't finish spent, you can weave a straw hat with peace of mind, and I'll give you twenty wen each." Chen Changsheng said angrily, without explaining anything.

Being shouted by Chen Changsheng, Bai Ruoqing didn't dare to say anything, silently ate the sweet potato in his hand, and the worry in his eyes receded a little.

After dinner, Chen Changsheng and the two drank hot water, and then returned to the small building, quietly waiting for the arrival of the night.

"I don't have to weave so many straw hats tomorrow, and when you get better in a few days, we'll leave, and we won't stay long." Chen Changsheng, who was lying on the thatch, said patiently, and heard Bai Ruoqing say a soft "um".

Then there was a deathly silence in the small building.
