Chapter 10 010: Making money and entering the city
The dozen or so rice balls in the bamboo basket are simply not enough for the people resting on the ridges of the fields to consume.A big hand snatched an empty basket, ending the noisy scene.

"Little lady, are there any more? Why don't you prepare a few more?" The ladies and uncles who didn't eat were anxious. It didn't matter if they were hungry without eating the rice balls. If others thought they couldn't afford it, they would lose face.

"My aunt is also selling, please wait a moment, I will go find her!" Based on Cai Xiaolan's understanding of Cui Lu's, Cui Lu's should not be open at the moment!
The young man was quick on his feet. Following the direction Cui Lu left, it didn't take long for Cai Xiaolan to find her.

When she found it, Mrs. Cui Lu was standing at an intersection where three paths intersected, her brows furrowed, as if she was thinking about which path her fortune lies on.

"Auntie, are you lost?" Cai Xiaolan covered her mouth and chuckled.

Cui Lushi has always been dignified at home.No matter how big things happen, your face will not change.Unexpectedly, she was fascinated by a mere three-way intersection.

"Xiaolan!" Cui Lushi turned around and saw Cai Xiaolan behind her, two spots of blush flew on her old face, "Hey, I'm thinking about which way to choose!"

"Come with me quickly, I don't have enough to sell!" Cai Xiaolan pulled her and ran all the way.

The opportunity given by God must be seized.If the people who want to buy rice balls have something to eat, wouldn’t it be a waste of a great opportunity to make money?
……

"One hundred and two... one hundred and nine... 110 nine, haha, Auntie, we earned a total of 110 nine today!" Cai Xiaolan was very proud.The rice ball's victory showed that she was right.

"It's really good. We haven't spent half of the capital, and besides, there is still half of the rice noodles left at home!" Cui Lushi was very happy that the family had gained income again.

To increase income and reduce expenditure, no matter where we go, this is the way to run a family.When there is running water at the source, the water will not stink.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked solemn when they went out. The result was satisfactory and their hard work paid off.

When we got home, the house was peaceful.Xiao Dongping was still digging the ground, but judging by her painted face and hands covered in dirt, she should have picked up a lot of copper coins.

“Vitality: 8/16”

And the sound of reading aloud came from the main room.

"The Master said: I examine myself three times a day: Do I eat? Do I walk the birds? Do I make friends?"

The first half can still be heard.In the second half, the lips of the donkey don't match the mouth of the horse.

"Auntie, do you want to fight?"

"Isn't it very good? Why do you still want to fight?" Cui Lushi was very surprised. It was justifiable to have a quarrel yesterday when he didn't endorse, but why did he still want to fight if he endorsed today!
"The Master said, I have to examine myself three times every day. Have I been unfaithful in my conduct for others? Have I not trusted my friends in my dealings? Have I not learned to teach others?" Master Cai immediately memorized the correct sentences.

"If you kill him, you dare to tamper with the teachings of the sages!" Cui Lu was furious.

"Here!" Cai Xiaoniang carried the person on her back, took out the mission reward from last night, and taught her to whip.Respectfully handed it to Mother Cui.

Mother Cui boarded the hall with a three-foot-long whip in her hand, covered the door with one hand to prevent Cui Boyan from escaping, and raised the whip with the other hand to beat her down.

a whip shadow

two ways
Three ways
In the three to five zhang square main room, there were whip shadows and screams everywhere.

The teaching whip, held in the hands of a loving mother, only hurts the skin and does not move the bones.

The screams lasted for a meal before they stopped.The whip shadow fell cleanly, and Cui Boyan had no choice but to lie down.

"Tell me, next time, don't you dare to endorse blindly!"

The godson whip was pressed on the back of his neck, "I don't dare, I won't dare again next time!" Whether it was unconscionable words or the truth, in this case, if it works, it is a good word.

"Auntie, don't forget to ask him to continue memorizing, he has to write articles in the afternoon!" Cai Xiaolan, who was lying on the door hinge, reminded her.

And Cui Dongping stared blankly at the third brother's daughter-in-law, and swallowed, "Whoever offends me in the future, I can't offend the third brother's sister-in-law!"

In it, Cui Boyan hated Cai Xiaoniang to death. He still thought about eating mutton soup and rice balls.

"Vicious shrew!" Cui Boyan roared silently.

In his heart, Cai Xiaoniang has become the worst person in the world, except for his father.

……

After lunch, Cai Xiaolan helped Cui Lushi wash the pot together.

"Auntie, I want to expand production. Our pot is very big. We can make a lot more rice balls. What's more, only during the spring plowing days, everyone is willing to buy them." After Cai Xiaoniang calmed down, she realized that she had earned 119 today. This money is far from the usual money needed for the task.

"Can we sell it?" Cui Lushi is not afraid of failure, but she is afraid of selling things.

"Don't worry, I have a solution!" When Cai Xiaolan was selling rice balls on the ridge in the morning, she had a faint idea of ​​how to sell rice balls.But if you don't expand your business, even if you have a market, it's just tasteless.

After listening to Cai Xiaoniang's words, Cui's mother went to the house and took out half a pound of money and put it on the table, "Then just go ahead and do it! It doesn't matter if you lose these five hundred dollars!"

"Hee hee, thank you, Auntie!" What made Cai Xiaolan happy was not the five hundred dollars that Cui's mother gave her, but Cui's mother's trust and support for her.All four members of the family know that there is only one and a half copper coins in the family.And now, one-third has been taken out.

Cai Xiaolan was so happy that she almost bowed her head and bowed, "Repaying your favor on the golden stage, supporting the jade dragon to die for you" was nothing more than that.

If you want to do it, you have to hurry up and do it, go early and return early.

Cai Xiaolan took five hundred coins in her arms and headed towards Yangzhou City.

"You, you, a woman, really dare to go on the road alone! Why don't you ask your husband to accompany you?" Cui's mother chased after her.

"Isn't he going to endorse it?"

"It's safer to have a companion." Cui's mother said in a tone that she could not refuse.

Her reminder also reminded Cai Xiaolan that she was no longer in a peaceful age.At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the peace of the world was only on the surface, and there were no shortage of bandits and villains.To be on the safe side, she also brought a golden hoe with her. Cui Boyan may not be able to work when something happens, but the golden hoe with +1 strength and +2 stamina can definitely teach the other party how to behave.

After all, who would have thought that a weak woman could be more than twice as powerful as an ordinary person?

……

"Cui Boyan, slow down!" Cai Xiaolan was panting and couldn't keep up.

When he left the house, Cui Boyan was like a stubborn donkey, with the wind blowing under his feet, he went forward indomitably.Keep Cai Xiaolan and Cui Dongping far away.

Yes, the two young couples went shopping in the city and brought a big light bulb - Cui Dongping.At the door of the house, Xiao Dongping burst into tears before being allowed to come.

"Hmph, who wants to be with a tough woman like you?" Cui Boyan was filled with anger.Not the righteousness of a scholar, but the resentment of being beaten.

With this breath, Cui Boyan quickly walked to the south gate of Yangzhou City.At the gate of the city, he turned his head and spread his hands towards Cai Xiaolan.

"By the way, you give me half of the five hundred dollars that mother gave you. I'm going to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstones!"

"Haha!" Cai Xiaolan sneered.Only Cui Lu would fall for this lame excuse.

"250 yuan? You just treat me as two hundred and fifty yuan. Don't even think about a cent if my aunt gave it to me. But if you can memorize "Xueerpian", I will give you fifty yuan!" Cai Xiao Lan tightly covered the pockets in her arms, for fear that Cui Boyan would do something like robbery in the street.

"You...Confucius is right, but a villain and a girl are hard to raise!" Cui Boyan was jumping up and down anxiously, and finally came to the city. He wanted to take this opportunity to connect with his classmates in the city.How can a man mess with his career if he has no money?

After jumping for a long time, he didn't come up with a good idea.There is a big brother and a second brother in the city, but it is unlikely to give him money. "You go to the corner!"

Helpless, Cui Boyan pulled Cai Xiaolan aside, not blocking the way of Cheng Cheng.

"I'll recite it to you, can you know right from wrong?"

"Just carry it!"

Speaking of being beaten, Cui Boyan really couldn't carry it on his back.But my mother's whip seemed to have magical powers. After the beating, my brain became clearer and I could recite it very quickly. I had already recited it all before meals.

At this moment, in front of Cai Xiaolan, although he was a little unskilled, he memorized it.

"Yes, I'll give you 50 yuan. From now on, at this price, there will be twenty Analects of Confucius, 50 yuan for each article!" Cai Xiaolan prepared a huge reward for Cui Boyan's second step in the imperial examination.

After getting the money, Cui Boyan ran faster than a rabbit and handed it over with only one sentence from a distance, "Tch, go home and ask for it from my mother-in-law. Do I still need the 50 yuan from you?"
