Villagers in Shili Baxiang like to take advantage of Jiri to buy a needle, thread, brain or other things, so Jitun in Liutun Town can be said to be very lively: selling rouge, tricks, or even begging along the street. There are more young beggars than in the past.

In the first two years when Young Jin came back to town, he hurried back and forth in a hurry, but did not feel the ancient gathering day full of life and fireworks. But today she is also too free to feel.

Carrying heavy baskets knocked on the back door outside the kitchen of Xian Wei Zhai Hou, but a little boy who was responsible for guarding the back door came to open the door. It was thought that it was a farmer who delivered food every day. I did n’t know if it was soot on the bottom of the pot or even what I looked at, so I asked, "Is it your knock?"

In general, the hotel restaurant also has some people selling things from time to time. The young folks are also familiar with it. They glanced at the big bamboo basket behind the young gold, and the top was covered strictly: "What are you carrying?" ? "

Young Jin licked his face and smiled: "Brother, all my backs are pheasants and hares from my dad's mountain, and they are still alive and kicking, would you like to see them?"

As soon as I heard that it was a pheasant hare, the little guy also came in with interest: "You open me to see if it's okay to say it." Now that it's the late autumn season, there are more guests who come to Xianweizhai to eat game than in summer, but There are not many hunters near Liutun Town, and the mountain goods they can receive every day are limited. Now they just come to the door. It is also possible to see.

Young Jin listened to him saying that there was a glimmer of hope, and quickly put down the heavy basket, then opened the burlap covered in front of the little guy, and saw that seven or eight were still murmuring. The screaming pheasant and the gray-haired hare shrunk in the basket.

The little guy said, "Hey," he smiled: "Your boy is okay! With so many pheasants and hares, you can still carry this big beanie to the town!" Squatted down and looked at these The spirit of Shanhu was found to be pretty good, so he stood up and said to Young Jin: "You are here for a while, I will ask our stewards in charge of purchasing in our kitchen whether they want Shanhu."

Youjin gratefully thanked: "Brother Lao." You Jinyuan thought it was not so simple, and did not expect it to be quite smooth. In fact, because the pheasants and hares sent by ordinary hunters are often shot and killed, when they are sent to Xianweizhai, the body of the mountain is hard, and it is rare that it is alive and kicking like the one sent by the young gold, so it is so smooth. .

The little guy came in just half an hour later, and came out with a fat middle-aged man: "It's the guy who is in charge of selling the mountain products."

The steward gave birth to a pair of small eyes with fine light, twiddling around the young gold, twisting a few goats and asking, "Where did your boy come from selling such mountain products? Want to make a price?"

Young Jin laughed and learned from the ancients that he gave a half-and-a-half salute: "In the words of the master, my family is an hunter on Cuifeng Mountain. These are all my dads. My dad sent the kid because his mother was sick. Go to town and sell the mountain products, and then exchange some money to go back to see my mother. "

Listening to her saying that, the man in charge did not ask any more questions. After instructing her to lift the sackcloth on the top of the back basket, she checked it carefully and finally asked for eight pheasants and four hares.

***

The young gold carrying was heavy compared to when it came, and now it is nothing like a basket with nothing in it. It carries a small purse sewed from sackcloth yesterday in Su's arms. It contains silver money from selling mountain products. In fact, it adds up to a few dollars. Silver, but young gold feels hot.

Going out of the alley where the back door of Xianweizhai is located, we went all the way to the market place on the West Market Day. There were two pheasants with smaller heads left in the young gold basket. She wants to take advantage of the current busy West Market to sell these two pheasants.

Entering the streets of West Market, it turned out that there were people selling stalls everywhere. Young Jin finally found a narrow place in the corner of the crowd, and quickly put down the back basket, and then swallowed two. The pheasant was taken out and placed on the ground.

Looking at the merchants who kept selling around, Young Jin opened his mouth and was a little embarrassed. In his past and present lives, the young Jin had never done the job of selling along the street, and he actually couldn't open his mouth.

When the construction of Young Jin's heart was almost ready to open for sale, a middle-aged woman wearing half-old fine cotton clothes came over with a basket: "Boy, how do you sell this pheasant?"

Youjin came to see you at home and hurried back to her with a smile: "Forty wenwen." This is already nearly half the price cheaper than live pheasants. In Liutun Town, better pork and farm-raising The chickens and ducks need to be more than 20 yuan a catty, and the mountain game is not easier to obtain than poultry, so the price is often much more expensive than the domesticated ones. price!

But the woman frowned and pulled the swallowing pheasant, and then clapped clapping disapprovingly: "Your kid really dare to make a price, but the swallowed pheasant dare to speak for fifty cents! How about a 30-word price? "

After hearing this woman ’s words, the young Jin could n’t help but want to laugh. When she was feeling that her aunt was young, she wanted to take advantage of it! Without a trace, the pheasant she turned over moved slightly back, and then said with a smile: "Auntie, these thirty essays are too few, don't just coax me at my young age."

The woman said something like this, and her face was a bit hot. "Tu" sips: "Neither know how long it took to swallow the pheasant, but they dare to sell it, and they are not afraid to eat bad guys and report to you!" Then he twisted his hips and walked away angrily.

Young Jin didn't take it seriously either, because it wasn't right or wrong to buy and sell, and she didn't think that she could sell it so quickly. Seeing that the aunt was scolding away, she quietly retracted into the corner and continued to guard her two pheasants.

Facts have proved that the price of yolk's pheasant is not high. The woman sold the pheasant at a price of forty for less than two quarters after the woman left. The empty basket hummed Xiaoqu'er out of West City. On the way back, he also spent five penny to buy a large bag of sweets and eight big penny buns.

When he left the town and touched the uncle who was in the car when he arrived, Young Jin happily paid a penny for the bullock cart. For example, today the head was already hanging high in the air, and there were many people who rushed to Jijia. After a while, five people sat on the bullock cart, and the uncle drove the bullock cart towards Cuifeng Mountain.

On the official road south of Cuifeng Mountain, Youjin got off the oxcart in the place where she got on the car in the early morning. After waving goodbye to the uncle who was driving, she went up to Cuifeng Mountain with a bamboo basket on her back.

On the return trip, because of the weight of the mountain products, Young Jin's foot was much faster. He trot back to the north of Cuifeng Mountain and waited to see the figure of Cuifeng Village before slowing down and hitting the pig grass. , Before carrying the heavy pig grass home.

***

It was only two quarters after the young gold arrived home, and the old Chen and the little Chen returned from the outside, but it was different from the young gold with brows and eyes that came back with joy. The old Chen was displeased, but the little Chen was It was a sullen face, and followed the old Chen's head with frustration.

Young Jin chopping pigweed in the yard and preparing to feed the pigs looked at the two of them with something wrong, beckoning to the young pearl picking vegetables under the Xixiangfang Gallery, and then whispered: "Young Pearl, you quietly go behind the main room Listen, see what the milk said to Auntie. "

In the past, Young Pearl sometimes went to eavesdrop, but they were all trivial things. But now that he has decided to leave the Yue Family, he naturally knows that the more handles, the better, so he hurries to release the little spy, the young spy.

The young Pearl's round eyes were shiny, nodded vigorously, and then quietly went to the backyard. Young Yin was sitting under the corridor picking vegetables. Looking at the movement of Young Pearl, she felt a little uneasy in her heart: "Sister Sister, what if it is found?" It ’s not too much to kill!

Young Jin gestured to her to calm down: "Little Five is very clever, you can rest assured."

Youzhu did not live up to the expectations of Youjin. She quietly approached the window edge behind the main room and squatted under a window that was a few inches in size. You could hear the excuse of Xiao Chen ’s voice faintly: “ Mother! I have n’t embezzled the money in the public, do n’t you get angry! "

The old Chen said with some yin and yang, "Then I blamed you for being wrong? I thought I would coax me before I was in town. I sold two eggs in town, but you were black-hearted. Come back and tell me A penny and a penny, isn't it that you stained my silver? "

Xiao Chen was choked by the rhetorical question that she was holding a gun and a stick, and then weeping to explain to herself, it is nothing more than saying that his two sons are going to study, and the family is spending a lot of money.

But it was this kind of words that stung the nerves of the old Chen family, and they all jumped up on the kang and pointed at her, scolding: "Wen Tao brothers spent your money on reading? When did the Xiu Shuzi not come from home? Even this time, one hundred or two of the papers that you want to buy are from the public. Have you ever paid a cent? "

The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were so arguing that in the end, Yue Dafu was the master: "Okay! Every day, what else do you know besides quarreling? Do n’t you think of old people, we do n’t know if you have private money But it wo n’t work to pollute the silver money in Gonggong. I ’ll do what I want. If you get two or two silvers, it ’s because you have polluted the silver money in Gongzhong these years, and I wo n’t count on you. ”

After listening to Yue Dafu's words, the two Chens jumped up: the old Chens were too little, the small Chens were too much, and the mother-in-law and you did not stop.

In the end, Yue Dafu directly knocked the wooden table on the kang with a pipe: "Okay! That's all for now, old folks, you can get the money now."

The young Chen's mouth held his mouth unwillingly, but he didn't dare to take it. He twisted and squeezed back to the East Chamber and fetched two or two pieces of silver and handed it to the old Chen's. The old Chen took the silver, and then stared at her fiercely: "If you let me know in the future, you must take your skin!"

The little Chen looked at the silver he didn't know how long he had saved it, and suddenly he went into the hands of her mother-in-law.
