Chapter 22 Earn More Than You

Looking at the old man's back, Ning Caicai was a little annoyed, and spat, "The old man who came from nowhere is just trying to trick children out of money!"

Ning Xianxian couldn't help laughing and said, "I bought it on my own initiative. It's a fair deal. How can it be a lie? Sister, don't be angry, I'm not a fool."

"Forget it, I bought everything."

Ning Caicai picked up the basket with great pain, "I'll hold it for you, let's hurry up, maybe Fourth Uncle and the others are waiting."

"I'll carry it myself, it doesn't weigh too much."

Ning Xianxian grabbed the basket and carried it by herself.

A basket full of garlic is still very heavy.

But Ning Xianxian had made up his mind to lose weight, so he endured the weight.

The two walked through the crowded and lively street, looked left and right, and finally saw the donkey cart at the end of the street.

Fourth Uncle Ning was standing at the back of the car, counting the necessities for the New Year one by one, for fear that something was missing and he forgot to buy it.

If I buy the wrong one, I will be scolded by my mother when I go back!

Ning Bailian was riding a sack and huddled in the donkey cart, seeing Ning Xianxian and the others approaching, she wished she could come forward and do her best.

She was dressed up beautifully, just to show off at the market, but now she dare not even get out of the donkey cart!

Blame that fat Ning Xianxian!
Ning Xianxian completely ignored her eyes, Shi Shiran carried the basket and put it on the donkey cart.

Ning Bailian thought she had bought something good, so she hurried over to take a look, and it turned out to be a basket of garlic.

"Are you sick?" She curled her lips, "The money Ning Caicai earned was actually used to buy this, why not buy a box of rouge!"

She thought it was bought with Ning Caicai's money.

"What do we want to buy with our own money, do you care?" Ning Xianxian rolled his eyes and threw the last bite of steamed bun into his mouth.

Ning Bailian was already hungry, but she would never ask Ning Xianxian and the others for food.

"Ning Cai's cooking skills are poor, and the few pennies he sells are enough to eat steamed buns." Ning Bilian looked at the direction of the street expectantly, and deliberately showed off, "The handkerchiefs I embroidered this time are better than before. Can sell for more money!"

"Then congratulations!"

Ning Xianxian said indifferently.

It looked like he didn't care at all.

Ning Bailian failed to show off her success, and the anger in her heart increased a lot.

"Auntie and sister, why haven't they come back?" She kicked the sack on the car impatiently.

Fourth Uncle Ning finished counting the New Year's goods, looked up at the sun, and frowned, "It's probably because Dani is taking them for a stroll again! If there is a delay, your grandma will be angry again when you go back!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ning Dani returning with Ning Bilian and Ning Yingying.

They were carrying things in big and small bags, and even Ning Yingying, who had no needlework to sell, was holding a bunch of candied haws.

"Why are you taking so long?" Fourth Uncle Ning was a little unhappy.

"We went shopping."

Ning Dani happily turned around, showing a new smock with red background and white flowers on her body, "I just bought it, does it look good?"

In all fairness, Ning Dani has a big round face, high cheekbones, looks a bit mean, really not pretty.

On the contrary, sisters Ning Bilian and Ning Bailian look sweeter.

The rest of Ning Caicai was tall and thin, with a disheveled face, which was not good-looking either.Although Ning Xianxian has fair skin, she is a bit fat, especially her face, the fat squeezes her bright eyes into small size.

And the youngest, Ning Yingying, is still young, so it's unclear what will happen in the future.

Seriously speaking, among the daughters of the Ning family, Ning Xianxian is the ugliest one.Ning Dani is definitely not related to the word "good-looking".

If she was really pretty, even if she had a bad temper, she wouldn't be unmarried by now.

In addition, she looks a little dark, and the blouse with red background and white flowers is really hard to describe.

Ning Dani didn't think it herself, she still thought it was pretty.

Ning Bilian only smiled slightly and didn't speak, while Ning Bailian looked at her new clothes, although she was jealous in her heart, she praised: "Auntie, this dress is so beautiful, how much did you pay for it?"

"Guess!" Ning Dani was extremely proud.

"Just looking at the material, you know it's expensive, right?" Ning Bailian said flatteringly, "Did aunt's embroidery sell for a lot of money?"

"It's not too much, anyway, it's a little more than yours."

Ning Dani squinted at Ning Caicai, "Why didn't you go to Jinxiangpu with us earlier? Could it be you who ruined it yourself?"

Ning Caicai lowered her head, Nuonuo said, "I thought I could sell a little more..."

"Tsk tsk, you are so clumsy and tongue-tied, and you still go to set up a stall? It's probably cheated by others!" Ning Dani said arrogantly, "I tell you, this time Jinxiang shop raised the price for us, one piece The handkerchief is exchanged for six Wen! This time, I sold a total of more than 70 Wen!"

"Wow!" Ning Bailian exclaimed, envious.

"Hmph, looking at Cai Cai's stupid appearance, I'm probably being cheated." Ning Dani said gloatingly.

Ning Caicai hesitated to say something, but dared not say it.

Ning Xianxian deliberately said from the side: "Sister, didn't you get a hundred coins?"

"what?"

Ning Dani and the others were all taken aback.

They are all sisters from the same family, and they know each other very well. Ning Caicai usually has a lot of housework to do, and she doesn't have that much time for sewing.

So Ning Dani was sure that the embroidery she brought was not as much as her own.

The quantity is less than hers, but the money sold is so much more than hers? !

how can that be!

Ning Dani's eyes were red with jealousy, "I don't believe it, how could you sell it for so much money? You must be bragging and deceiving people! The dead fairy never said a word of truth!"

Although Ning Caicai was cowardly, she didn't want her sister to be wronged, so she quickly argued: "I really have these, but it's only 99 Wen, and the remaining one is given to me by my younger sister!"

After speaking, she took out the bag containing the copper coins and showed them a few.

Ning Dani and Ning Bailian immediately went over to have a look, there were not only many copper plates, but even a small piece of broken silver!
At a glance, there is a penny in total.

Ning Dani's heart suddenly turned cold, and the smug energy just now disappeared immediately.

"Ning Caicai, how can you earn so much?" Ning Bailian asked sourly.

Ning Caicai glanced at Ning Xianxian, but said nothing.

Ning Xianxian said maliciously: "It's not that my elder sister earns a lot, I think it's because you were cheated by the proprietress of Jinxiangji!"

Ning Dani became excited: "You are talking nonsense! Why did she lie to us?"

"What else? Isn't it because you're stupid?" Ning Xianxian mocked.

"Damn girl, you are looking for death!" Ning Dani was so angry that she reached out to beat Ning Xianxian.

As soon as she stretched out her hand, a blue cloth carriage drove by, and the driver was a middle-aged man with a strong figure.

When Ning Dani and Ning Bilian saw the carriage, their eyes lit up.

When the carriage passed by the donkey cart, the wind lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing a young man sitting inside.
