Chapter 026: You're a Liar
Zhou Dongmei and Zhao Dongkui couldn't laugh when they heard Xiao Budian's words.
On the contrary, I was embarrassed and a little embarrassed.
After all, the White Rabbit toffee and twist are very expensive, and they didn't buy them as a couple.
What kind of thing is this that is remembered by the little ones!
Seeing that it was not too early, Zhao Dongkui stretched out his hand and hugged Xiao Budian: "If you want to eat toffee and twist flowers, let's go home and eat, will Dad sell it to you?"
"It's not good, our family has no money, so we can't afford it. Xiao Budian tilted his little head and replied.
This is a big truth, and it's not an exaggeration at all.
Zhao Dongkui covered his head when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
I want to be hard, but I don't dare.
After all, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are watching from the sidelines!
Liu Xing knew his brother-in-law's thoughts, and even more knew that his brother-in-law had a good face, so he stood up and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, if you have something, go back first! ”
"This ......" Zhao Dongkui looked at Liu Dongju when he heard this.
"Don't look at me, if your daughter doesn't go back this time, I'm afraid she won't want to go back in the future. Liu Dongju teased.
"Why?" Zhao Dongkui wondered.
"Because my mother's family has meat to eat and bone broth to drink, what about your family?" Liu Dongju asked funny.
At my mother-in-law's house, every meal was sweet potatoes, and occasionally the women and children who came to the table were not allowed to serve, and to be honest, she was really fed up.
"I ......" Zhao Dongkui was speechless.
For his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, he does owe a lot.
But he can't do it against his parents because of his daughter-in-law!
This is a difficult problem, and there is no cure for it.
So if you can pretend to be confused now, let's pretend more.
When you have the ability, it's not too late to compensate your daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law.
"Alright, alright, don't talk about all this nonsense if you want to go back. Zhou Qiuxiang hugged Xiao Budian: "She won't go back today, you will take it away when you want to use the cow next time, rest assured, there will be meat to eat at every meal, and she will not be hungry." ”
"Mom. Liu Dongju was a little reluctant.
But in the end, he couldn't say Zhou Qiuxiang, so he had to go back with Zhao Dongkui.
Liu Xingmu sent the couple away, and after telling his mother, he went back to his room to sleep.
After all, he will go to buy a conch before dawn tomorrow, and if he doesn't sleep more at this time, he will definitely not be energetic tomorrow.
......
When you wake up.
It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
Liu Xing saw that the melon seeds were playing with Xiao Budian on the barn field.
At that moment, he did not bother them, but went to the bullpen to bring out the black calf, and walked slowly towards the river.
On the country road, he met Ma Lei, who was selling conch and riding a bicycle.
Looking at the empty bamboo basket on the back rack of the bicycle, you don't need to look at it to know that Ma Lei definitely made money this trip.
As for the price, he didn't ask much.
After chatting with Ma Lei for a few words, he took the black calf and continued to walk towards the river.
Who knew that before he walked five meters away, Ma Lei chased after him on a bicycle: "Brother, will you also go to the city tomorrow to sell conch?"
"Well, my sister touched a lot of them today, as well as river crabs and lotus roots!" Liu Xing replied truthfully.
"Then take me, my mother must have touched a lot of river crabs today. Ma Lei said with a sneer.
"Okay, aren't you afraid that I will rob you of your business?" Liu Xing smiled.
"What kind of business is it to rob? The conch is not easy to sell in the city at all, I sold more than a dozen catties for the odds, and I still have a scale that has not received any money. When it came to business, Ma Lei became depressed: "Don't you know, if I hadn't gone to the Donghe vegetable market in the end and sold the snails to the dealers for a dime and a half a catty, I'm afraid that I won't be able to return this point!"
"Isn't it?" Liu Xing was taken aback.
I wanted to comfort Ma Lei a few words, but I couldn't speak.
After all, he sold the conch yesterday, and it was thanks to Director Li of Hengshui Distillery.
Otherwise, I am afraid that I will be like Ma Lei, and finally sell it to dealers at a low price.
"Do you think I'm going to lie to you?" Ma Lei smiled: "But in general, it's not bad, two hundred catties of river snails are sold for almost thirty yuan, and my mother will definitely die of joy when I go back." ”
"It's just that I'm afraid that there will be no conch to touch in the future. Liu Xing pointed to the riverside.
Ma Lei looked over, and then frowned.
So many people are touching the river snail on the riverbank, at most three days, and after three days, it is estimated that even the shell of the river snail can not be found.
"Hurry home and rest! I'll be waiting for you at the village intersection tomorrow. Liu Xing reached out and patted Liu Xing's shoulder.
"Okay!" Ma Lei nodded.
Suddenly, he grabbed Liu Xing: "By the way, did you see Yang Dajun come back?"
"Nope. Liu Xing shook his head.
He didn't have the heart to pay attention to an old bachelor.
Ma Lei smiled: "It seems that he didn't come back, at more than three o'clock, I saw that none of the conch in his basket were sold!"
"How can this be?" Liu Xing was puzzled.
"It's not you kid, you lied to Yang Dajun that the snail could be sold for five cents a catty. Ma Lei smiled teasingly: "This price is too high, and it will definitely not be sold." ”
Liu Xing laughed when he heard this: "He asked for it, and he can't sell it." ”
"I think so too, so let's not talk about it, I'll see you tomorrow in the village. After Ma Lei said this, he rode his bicycle and left.
Liu Xing watched Ma Lei's figure disappear from sight, and after coming back to his senses, he suddenly took the black calf and walked towards the pine forest to the west.
The reason why he didn't go to the river to graze cattle was because he faintly felt that this Yang Dajun was only afraid that he would find trouble with him when he came back, so for the sake of purity, it was better to avoid it.
What he didn't expect was that the pine forest was full of shiitake mushrooms and oyster mushrooms because of the heavy rain that had fallen a few days ago, both of which were edible and would be very good if they were shipped to the city.
After all, in the 80s, there was no place for growing mushrooms.
And no one will plant either.
It's just that the transportation of this mushroom is a problem.
Shiitake mushrooms are a little better, but oyster mushrooms break when touched.
If it is transported to the city and becomes scum, it will not be sold for money.
But there are so many mushrooms on the ground, if he doesn't pick them back, Liu Xing's heart will be a little uncomfortable.
After weighing it again, he tied the black calf to a pine tree and ran home to get the woven bag.
Coming to the pine forest again, there are two more heels behind me.
You don't have to think about it, it's just a melon seed and a little bit.
The two of them couldn't help but cheer when they saw that the pine forest floor was full of mushrooms.
Seeing this, Liu Xing hurriedly made a booing motion: "You two want to die! If you call someone else, the mushrooms on the ground won't be ours." ”
"Yes, speak quietly. The melon seeds quickly shrunk their necks, and then helped pick them.
Xiao Budian was not idle, picked up a shiitake mushroom and sent it to his mouth, saw that it tasted good, sat on the ground and ate it.
Liu Xing looked at it and had a headache: "Little no, this mushroom can't be eaten if it's not cooked, if you are disobedient, then my uncle won't buy twist flowers and white rabbit toffee for you tomorrow." ”
"Isn't that nest inappropriate?" Xiao Budian knew that Liu Xing would not scare her, so he hurriedly got up and helped pick the mushrooms.
Liu Xing was still very uneasy about Xiao Budian, so he turned his head to the melon seeds and said, "Sister, you are responsible for taking care of Xiao Budian, just pick vegetables and mushrooms and leave them to me." ”
If he accidentally picks a poisonous mushroom, then his sin will be great.
"Good. The melon seed took the little bit and studied the ant nest on the side, and took a look at the black calf by the way.
An hour later, the woven bag was filled with shiitake and oyster mushrooms.
Liu Xing saw that it was almost there, and walked in the direction of home with the black calf and the woven bag on his back.
Melon Seed hurriedly followed behind with Xiao Budian.
By this time the sun had set, and the western horizon was crimson.
Liu Xing casually glanced at the location of the riverside, and saw that everyone who touched the river snail went back, so he couldn't help but smile.
If nothing else, he knows that tomorrow's Donghe vegetable market will definitely be full of snails, so if possible, he will definitely not go to the Donghe vegetable market to sell conch.
As for where to go, Hengshui Winery is naturally the best place to go.
Seeing that the speed of Xiao Budian and melon seeds behind him was a little slow, he didn't keep up with him for the first time, so he hurriedly put down the woven bag in his hand and reached out to hug the two of them on the back of the black calf.
The first time I rode a bull, I was nervous.
The little hand hugged the waist of the melon seeds and did not dare to relax at all.
But as the black calf moved, she gradually relaxed.
Liu Xing also breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next second he froze.
In the direction of the barn in front of the house.
He could faintly hear the quarrel.
As for who the quarrel was, it was somewhat inaudible.
In order to avoid accidents, he hurriedly lifted the woven bag and led the black calf towards the barn.
When I got closer, I realized that it was Yang Dajun's guy who didn't sell the conch and came to trouble him.
As a result, he was not there, and was beaten down by his mother.
I didn't get the money to buy it and was hungry for a day, so Yang Dajun was naturally unconvinced.
So I quarreled with my mother.
But it didn't take long for him to quarrel and he was driven away by Liu Ye with a hoe.
By the time Liu Xing led the black calf to the barn, Yang Dajun had long since disappeared.
However, because he fled in the wilderness, there were a lot of river snails left on the ground.
Liu Xing looked at it and smiled, and gave Liu Ye a thumbs up: "Good fourth, next time Yang Dajun is looking for trouble with our family, you will use a hoe to him." ”
"That's necessary, it's just the third brother, how did you sell the conch in the city? Not only did Yang Dajun not only sell the conch when you went home just now, but also the conch from Zhang Marie's family and Yu Huajun's family!" Liu Ye put down the hoe in his hand and asked in surprise.
"Well, keep it secret for now. Liu Xing handed the woven bag in his hand to Liu Ye, and after instructing the melon seeds to bring the little bit back, he led the black calf in the direction of the bullpen.
"What's in here?" Liu Ye opened the woven bag.
But when I saw that it was full of shiitake mushrooms and oyster mushrooms, I couldn't believe what I saw.
He couldn't figure it out.
Why can the third brother find something valuable as soon as he goes out.
And he couldn't find it at all.
This person is more than human, and sometimes he is really angry.
