Chapter 70 Chapter 071
Section 071 Selling Vegetables and Fat Pigs
Just after breakfast, the third aunt Jiang came to the door, carrying snacks in her hand.I changed into decent clothes, but there were black stains on the chest and cuffs, which had not been washed off for many years, and were all adhered to the clothes; my hair was tied up in a scrunchie, but it smelled of sweat, it must have been unwashed for a month.
In those chubby hands, there was actually a box of snacks.When Anxiu saw the box of dim sum, she felt familiar. It looked like she had carried it yesterday, and then she was stained with chicken feces by Mrs. Jiang.Thinking of this, Anxiu almost vomited, and acid water began to flow in her stomach again.
"Xiu girl, I heard that you were seriously ill yesterday, so my aunt came to see you." Since being frightened by An Xiu last time, Jiang Shi is now respectful to An Xiu, not daring to scold her anymore, and smiles at An Xiu from a long distance away, There is a green vegetable leaf left between the yellow-stained teeth, which is very conspicuous.
Anxiu stood there and didn't pick up the box of snacks, and didn't go around the door with her. She said with a faint smile, "Third Aunt, I'm all well, thank you for thinking about it. If there's nothing wrong, let's go to the patriarch's house now and talk about buying and selling fields." Alright."
Jiang Shi has always been anxious, afraid that Anxiu would go back on her word, now that she heard her say this, she was immediately elated, and hurriedly said: "It's done, it's done. Let's go now?"
Anxiu didn't want to keep her at home, for fear that her stench would contaminate his house, so of course she agreed to go now.Then I went into the room and took 25 taels of silver, carefully wrapped the rest, and found that there were only more than 60 taels left. I immediately knew that I could no longer be lazy and had to actively earn money.
Before going out, Jiang shi insisted on leaving the snacks at Anxiu's house, saying that they were sent to see her.Anxiu glanced coldly, the dim sum seemed to have been disassembled and covered with paste again, she felt very disgusted, and hurriedly said: "I really don't need Third Aunt, we are juniors, how dare we eat your elders' food? Take it back and give it to me." They eat aquatic and lake students."
Jiang Shi falsely declined: "Is there any reason to bring it back? Let Shusheng and Yu'er eat."
"Shusheng doesn't like these things. Yu'er has changed her teeth, so she can't eat sweets. Third aunt, you should take them back. I'll accept your wish." Anxiu was a little impatient, and walked away.In fact, He Yuer had already changed her teeth.
Jiang picked up some snacks again and followed quickly, feeling very happy in her heart.I was worried all night last night that this matter would not be done, fearing that Anxiu would regret it if she knew about the deserted fields on the river beach, but now looking at it, she was so worried, God still helped her.
The patriarch doesn't have to go to the field, but he specializes in cutting off the family's shortcomings and buying and selling things in the village. The farmers in the village will give him rations every year.A new patriarch will be elected after the previous patriarch dies.The current patriarch was newly elected the year before last, but he is in his early fifties. He is energetic, thoughtful, and literate. He is a first-class capable person in Zhuangzi.
After Anxiu and Jiang Shi explained their intentions, the patriarch frowned slightly. Seeing Jiang Shi's dirty and smelly body, he covered his nose with a handkerchief in disgust, and said, "Your daughter-in-law, your man knows about the sale of the land, right?" ?”
"I know, I know!" Jiang said hurriedly.Facing the sharp eyes of the patriarch, Jiang was a little scared, and she shrank her neck uncontrollably, lacking in confidence.
The patriarch found out a family tree, the yellowed pages contained every detail of the family.After watching, the patriarch suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Jiang: "Your family only has six acres of paddy fields, and you sold five acres to Anxiu. What do you expect the five members of your family to eat?"
Jiang forced himself to calm down, and hurriedly quibbled: "Isn't there still an acre of paddy fields? If you plant three seasons of rice, you can eat it for half a year. When the farming season is busy, I go to help others to do work and earn some money. My family's Shuisheng doesn't like doing farm work. Learn a craft later. There are still six acres of dry land, and those who grow some cotton and rapeseed can also earn income!"
"One mu of paddy field, your family of five will live for half a year? Shuisheng is going to learn crafts, what kind of crafts?" The patriarch said displeased, "Your daughter-in-law, the ugly words are the first, this field is sold, and you are not allowed to go back on your word in the future. Your family's Shuisheng If he is not well-behaved, our clan will not tolerate him."
Jiang nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, patriarch, I know all about it."
The patriarch looked at Anxiu again, and said, "Business must be fair and voluntary. Girl Xiu, you know that the government has reclaimed the barren land on the river bank, and it will be sold soon, right? Although the barren land is a bit barren, it is very cheap for two taels of silver per mu. After three to five years, it will be fertile land. Do you insist on buying He Youlu's house?"
Anxiu was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't know about this matter, so she couldn't help asking, "Why didn't I know when it happened?"
Jiang's heart suddenly turned cold, the patriarch intervened, and it was estimated that the field would not be sold, and the face was suddenly painted, which was extremely ugly.
Anxiu glared at her, and seeing her face change, she knew that she was deliberately hiding from her, and wanted to sell her field and buy it into barren land for storage. Anxiu's face darkened: "Third Aunt, why didn't you do this?" Tell me? Thinking about selling your land to me at a high price, and then go to buy good land."
"This is not a place to quarrel!" The patriarch knocked on the table majestically, his voice was not high, but it was very intimidating.The patriarch's home is the most authoritative place in Zhuangzi. Everyone has to follow the rules, otherwise they will be executed according to the village rules.
Although An Xiu is a newcomer, she knows the rules and dare not say anything.
Although Jiang's heart was full of unwillingness and anger, she didn't dare to say a word, she just bowed her head and waited for the patriarch to deal with it.
"Okay, cheating is not allowed in our clan. I have already made it clear to both of you. Whether you buy or sell the land, you can talk about it separately. Youlu's daughter-in-law is the elder, so you talk about it first." The patriarch took out a big book again. , ready to record the result of this processing.
In order to prevent disputes in the village, the patriarch must inform both parties of the situation before buying or selling.If both parties know the truth and still insist on the original decision, the patriarch will not stop it, but they are not allowed to cause trouble because of this matter in the future, otherwise the clan rules will not allow it.
Gritting her teeth, Jiang said: "I didn't think about the wasteland on the river beach, and I forgot to tell Girl Xiu. If Girl Xiu still buys my field, it will be two hundred yuan cheaper per mu. The soil quality of my field is one of the best in Zhuangzi. Well, the rice planted is strong and plentiful."
The patriarch wrote down her words, and then asked Anxiu: "What does girl Xiu think, please tell me."
Anxiu took a deep breath, and spoke clearly and resolutely: "Third Aunt deliberately hid it from me, she made the mistake first. I proposed the land purchase first, and I didn't figure out the situation myself, so I made even more mistakes. If Third Aunt is willing to four If you sell two or one mu to me, I will buy them all."
"Four twos and one mu?" Jiang yelled when she heard the words, "Are you dreaming?"
The patriarch knocked on the table again, and said in a deep voice, "I've said it many times, don't quarrel loudly, and your daughter-in-law is good at talking."
The patriarch also recorded Anxiu's words, and concluded after writing: "Youlu's daughter-in-law is willing to sell for [-] renminbi, but Anxiu is only willing to buy for [-] liang, and the negotiation fails. You can talk about it when you go back, and you both agree to come again." Come on, let's go back today."
"Don't don't." Jiang gritted her teeth, as if she was in pain, "Since I'm here today, I'd better discuss it and settle this matter. Girl Xiu, add another five hundred wen per mu, and this aunt will sell it to you .”
Anxiu sneered, buying Jiang's field was just to cover up people's eyes and ears: the crops in Anxiu's field can use supernatural powers, and they must be better than everyone else's. If someone asks, they will infer that the soil quality of this field is good.Everyone in the village knows that Jiang's fields are of good quality, so it is not easy to arouse suspicion.Otherwise why spend the extra money?No matter how barren the fields are, Anxiu can grow food.
What's more, even if you don't plant it yourself, you can exchange it with the uncle's family for some fields on the dam of the uncle's family.Aunt Tang knew that the fields of Sanbo's family were good, so she would definitely like it.
Thinking of this, Anxiu smiled lightly: "I've finished what I said, four taels per mu. I won't buy it for a penny. If the third aunt thinks my price is cheaper, then find a buyer. I'll go first the patriarch."
Anxiu knew that the Jiang family would sell it.The further you go, the harder it is to sell.
Sure enough, Jiang Shi Limara grabbed Anxiu's sleeve, and accompanied him with a smile: "Sincerely buy your aunt's field, why are you so impatient? I didn't say no to sell it, how about adding two hundred Wen per mu? How about you go to Landlord Sun's house?" , Absolutely can’t buy such a good field.”
This is true. Landlord Sun's land is rented out all the year round and overused, so the geology is naturally not as good as Jiang's.But for Anxiu, no matter what kind of land, it is a normal result.Which kind can solve other people's doubts, which kind is good field.
"Third Aunt, didn't I speak clearly enough?" An Xiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "If it's four or two acres, I'll buy it. If you want an extra penny, you can ask other buyers, I can't afford it. "
Seeing that Anxiu refused to give in even a single step, Jiang's face turned purple with anger. If she hadn't been at the patriarch's house, she would have jumped up and scolded. She was so harsh when she had money, and the five mu of land added up to only one thousand wen more.She built a house, and the gate alone cost more than one thousand Wen.
"If we can't agree, come back tomorrow, there are still people waiting!" The patriarch said angrily, he was already very lenient to them, and allowed them to discuss for a long time, if it was someone else, he would have been sent away by now.The Zhuangzi has been very quiet recently, not many people come to the patriarch to deal with affairs, and they are idle when they are idle.
When Anxiu heard this, she stood up and bid farewell to the patriarch.
Seeing that she was so determined that there was no room for turning back, Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to hold her back: "Sure, four taels is four taels. As a family, you can earn your aunt's coffin with peace of mind, and I can sell it."
Seeing that they had reached an agreement, the patriarch wrote down the results of their discussion in a notebook, then wrote a note, stamped the clan's seal, and asked them to press their fingerprints.The Jiang family's title deed was first shown to the patriarch to see if it was fake, and Anxiu's silver was also shown to the patriarch to see if it was pure silver.
After the patriarch appraised that their belongings were correct, he handed over the belongings to them respectively, and the Zhuangzi's business was considered completed, which was recorded in the transaction book dedicated to genealogy.
Coming out of the patriarch's house, Jiang was so angry that he didn't look at An Xiu.If An Xiu hadn't shocked her last time, she would have scolded her a few times.What a shameless girl, she actually lowered the price with her, causing her to lose five taels of silver.
Thinking of losing five taels of silver for no reason, Jiang's flesh hurts, and he scolded Anxiu hard in his heart.
Anxiu's house is to the west, and Jiang's is to the south. When they reach a fork in the road, they will not go the same way.Anxiu said politely that the third aunt left first.Jiang shi walked quickly, pretending not to hear, once Anxiu was able to leave, she would scold as she walked, the scolding was extremely nasty.
"Her third aunt, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Shi came back from the field, his trousers rolled up, revealing his fat calf, which was covered with mud.On weekdays, Mrs. Xiao doesn't like to talk to Mrs. Jiang. Compared to Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Jiang is lazy and greedy, so Mrs. Xiao can't understand her.
Just now when she heard that she seemed to be scolding Anxiu, Xiao Shi called out to her.A friend of a friend is a friend, an enemy of an enemy is a more reliable friend.Anxiu is Xiao's enemy, but also Jiang's enemy. Based on this, the two sisters-in-law have something in common.
As soon as she saw Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Jiang complained about her bitterness. She refused to give up any money from Anxiu, and insisted on buying her five acres of fertile land for four taels of silver per mu. Anxiu: "Damn girl with a dark heart, if I wasn't in a hurry to use the money, I would rather go out of stock than sell it to her."
Seeing that this was the case, Mrs. Xiao immediately stopped talking.Those fertile fields were indeed sold cheaply, but those fields did not belong to the Jiang family in the first place, they were cheated by her when the family was separated.At that time, Mrs. Xiao hadn't been married yet, and these words were told to her by her sister-in-law Tang later.
The right and wrong of it were distorted by Tang.
As for what happened, Xiao didn't know, but the fields of the third family were better than theirs, whether it was soil quality or geographical location, they were all good.Thinking that Anxiu was being cheapened in this way, Xiao-shi spat, comforted Jiang-shi a few words, and went home.
"Father, we can't live in this house anymore. I will rebuild the house at the end of the year!" After returning home, Mrs. Xiao told He Youbao.
The incident of harvesting rice yesterday and the incident of Anxiu's illness later made He Youbao extremely depressed. Hearing what Xiao said, he kept silent and continued to smoke.
"Did you hear me?" Seeing that He Youbao was silently smoking a cigarette and ignoring her, which was obviously a silent protest, Mrs. Xiao became angry, and raised her voice and shouted, "Deaf or dumb? Let me tell you, you don't answer." , I also have to build a house at the end of the year!"
"What do we do?" He Youbao said angrily, "We have no money, and we will sell all our rations at the end of the year, and we have no money to build a house."
"Ask Anxiu for a loan!" Xiao Shi smiled treacherously, "She builds a house and buys land, so it's impossible that she doesn't have money. Our parents live in a dilapidated house, and she doesn't care when she gets rich. I'll go to the patriarch to reason. I'm not afraid that she won't give the money. Besides, we didn't ask her for it, but let her borrow it."
"Our house is fine, where can we not live in it?" He Youbao saw Xiao's mind, and wanted to change to Anxiu's firebrick house, which was bright and grand.And this is a very good excuse to ask Anxiu for money. Parents are building a house and ask her to borrow money.It's okay if you don't have money, she built a big house for everyone in the village to see.
No one would believe that she had no money.
"Where do you live?" Xiao yelled angrily, "The west side has a lot of rain leaks, the walls are wet and half collapsed, and the main house leaks in several places. Our son and daughter-in-law have made a fortune, why do we still live in this crappy house? "
"The family is separated, and the children have no responsibility to build a house for you!" He Youbao stood up abruptly, "When the family was separated, it was agreed that the two families will live together. Unless we are too old and disabled, the children will give us Stuttering. You somehow said that you want to build a house, thinking that the patriarch will really help you? It's not easy to be a girl, and life is better after a long time, so you don't make trouble with her."
"You useless bastard, you only know how to dig the ground and dig the ground all your life, and you will die of poverty all your life!" Xiao scolded, "Anyway, I've decided to build the house, just wait and see!"
He Youbao sighed, put his head down to light the cigarette again, took a deep breath, and the pipe made a whirring sound.He spit out the circles under his eyes, more like exhaling the usual sulking breath, the dark red old face that has been exposed to the sun all year round is wrinkled and wrinkled, and the brows are tightly locked together.
Today is the day for Youji to go to the market. After getting up in the morning and doing so many things, I have to go the day after tomorrow.Anxiu asked He Shusheng to put the tortoise pot away in the guest room so that no one could see it.It was inevitable that someone would stop by and tell the truth, He Zaosheng and the others' lies would be revealed.
He Shusheng obediently moved the tortoise into the guest room.
Anxiu was going to cut some wild vegetables and stew pig food back. She took a sickle and a basket and just went out. She heard someone asking for her name from a distance.
There were only three women, each carrying a large basket in their hands, covered with a red cloth, bulging high.One is old, with silver hair but full of energy, and two middle-aged, who look about the same age as the second aunt, wearing blue cloth jackets, not new, but very neat and comfortable.
Seeing Anxiu standing at the door, the old woman smiled all over her face: "Is it girl Xiu? Oh, my mother-in-law hasn't come here for a year, and I almost didn't recognize you. You've grown taller."
An Xiuruo made a little guess, probably He Shusheng's grandmother and two aunts.Ever since Anxiu came here, he hadn't seen them come to the door, so naturally he didn't recognize them.Anxiu was afraid of making mistakes, so she just smiled: "Why is my mother-in-law here? Shusheng, come out quickly, my mother-in-law is here!"
When He Shusheng heard this, he hurriedly carried the tortoise pot into Anxiu's room, stuffed it under her bed, covered it with the hanging bed curtain, and then went out.Seeing grandma, first aunt, and second aunt coming with gifts, she immediately went up to meet her and took the heavy basket from grandma's hand: "Mother-in-law, first aunt, second aunt, why are you here?"
He Shusheng's grandmother Zhang Wang held Anxiu's hand, satisfied with this beautiful niece and daughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "Your uncle's brothers went to our Zhuangzi to announce the good news, saying that Xiu girl was pregnant. Your father-in-law and I were so happy that we paid homage to our ancestors overnight. Bringing your two aunts here to give you a gift. Xiu, isn’t there a lot of embarrassment? The first child is really uncomfortable.”
After the two aunts put down their things, they also came over to ask if Anxiu was very sick, and asked what kind of food they wanted to eat, and asked the uncles to get it.
Anxiu just laughed, and it took a long time to explain: "I'm not pregnant, I made a mistake." She also compiled how she vomited yesterday, how she suspected she was pregnant, how she told her second aunt, and how her second aunt couldn't wait to inform her family when she was so happy. The rhetoric told He Shusheng's grandmother and aunt.
The three of them were obviously disappointed.
Anxiu had no choice but to apologize, and picked He Yu'er back at noon, and there were some radishes, cabbage, clam shells, rabbit meat, chicken, and fish in the cellar. Anxiu got some of each.Fried fish pieces, stewed chicken with potatoes, fried clam shell meat with peppers, braised rabbit meat, stir-fried cabbage, put the radish in boiling water first, then put it in cold salad, fried peanuts, and went to the second uncle's house to ask for a jar of fermented soybeans , fried with shallots, made a full eight dishes, and then made egg soup.
The second aunt Zhu helped Anxiu to light the fire, and He Yuer took her grandmother and first aunt to look around, looking at their houses, pigpens, cowsheds, chicken coops, rabbit cages, and then took a look at their bedrooms, looking in the closet, New clothes in the quilt cabinet, new quilts.
Grandma Zhang Wang's eyes were so moved that her eyes were wet: "It's all good, all is good! Girl Yu, your mother has appeared in the sky, and bless you brothers and sisters to have a good life. My mother-in-law is also relieved. From now on, be down-to-earth." Yes, stronger than anything."
The eldest aunt Liu was so envious that her eyes almost fell out. Although Zhangjiazhuang was more than ten miles away from Hejiazhuang, the news that Anxiu made a fortune and built a new house was recently spread. In the past, it was so evil that my aunt Li didn't believe it at first, but now I see it, I really believe it.
Anxiu has indeed made a fortune.
He Yu'er showed Zhang Wang's embroidery work: "Mother-in-law, this is the flower I embroidered. I have only learned it for a few days, and it doesn't look good. When Yu'er learns, I will embroider beautiful ones for my mother-in-law first. "
Zhang Wangshi held it in her hand, she was shocked, if she didn't say it, how could she tell that it was from a child's hand?A peony was rusted, the stitches were delicate, and it seemed to be alive. Zhang Wang was quite surprised: "Yu'er, how did you learn such a great skill? It's so beautiful, it can sell for a lot of money."
He Yu'er smiled innocently: "When Yu'er earns money, I will buy new clothes and make new shoes for my mother-in-law and father-in-law, and honor you all!"
"Ai, ai!" Zhang Wang's voice was choked up.A year ago when He Shusheng left his grandmother's house, Mrs. Zhang Wang saw that he was injured, which was beaten by Mrs. Xiao with a fire stick. In a fit of anger, he brought two uncles to fight over him.Later, son-in-law He Youbao knelt down in public and begged them to go back. Zhang Wang became angry and vowed never to come to their house again.
In a flash, it is a year.Compared with a year ago, He Yu'er seems to have grown taller, her face is not as pale as before, her snow-white cheeks are red with apples, and she is abnormally delicate. Zhang Wang knew that An Xiu was really good to He Shusheng and He Yuer, and she felt emotional Thousands, tears almost overflowed.
There were guests at home, Anxiu asked He Shusheng to call old man Li back for dinner.It's rare to eat a hearty meal, so he can enjoy it too.
After a while, old man Li and He Shusheng also came back.Grandma was even happier when she saw their cows. Anxiu's life has really changed drastically.Asked who the old man was, Anxiu told her grandmother the truth.Grandma didn't say anything, but she pursed her lips with a trace of displeasure.
When eating, Anxiu brought out the newly bought pear wood table with red lacquer, long teak wood benches, blue fine porcelain bowls and plates, and ebony chopsticks inlaid with silver heads. It's really beautiful; the eldest aunt Liu's eyes can't be pulled out, she is very envious.
Zhang Wang is full of joy and pride.
The table was full of dishes, which made grandma and two aunts sigh again.
After dinner, the two aunts insisted on helping Anxiu clean up the dishes.Anxiu refused, grandma Zhang Wang said with a smile: "Xiu girl, let your aunt clean up for you, come here, my mother-in-law has something to tell you."
Anxiu had no choice but to follow Zhang Wang out of the kitchen.The baskets brought by the mother-in-law and the two aunts are placed in the bedrooms of Anxiu and Yu'er.My mother-in-law opened it for her to see: "You didn't post the post when you built the house, and we didn't hear about it. It was only when it was finished that I heard people vaguely talking about it. You are not pregnant, and you won't bring these things back today. Don't take it too lightly as a gift for building a house last time."
Anxiu glanced at the three baskets, each containing two bolts of cloth, forty or fifty eggs, one piece of pork, and two packs of pastries.
"My mother-in-law is outrageous, what should I say?" Anxiu hurriedly refused, "I haven't been filial to you all year round, but asked your elders to give you gifts. If people know about it, I don't know how to embarrass me."
"Others say whatever they want!" Zhang Wang has a hot temper and doesn't care about those mundane things. He just took Anxiu's hand and took out a cloth bag from his bosom to her, "There is no separation from your uncles. Although I am in charge of the money, I have to discuss with them about the use of a single penny. You spend the two hanging money with the consent of your uncle and aunt. Don’t think it’s too little, ah!"
Anxiu was really anxious this time, and forced the purse back into her grandmother's hand: "Mother-in-law, as you have seen, we are not short of food and drink now. It is not easy for uncles to earn money, so I cannot ask for your money. Wait." When I can't live on, I will go to my mother-in-law and father-in-law to have a stutter."
"Be obedient, Xiu, take it!" Zhang Wang was determined to give her the money.Anxiu has no parents, unlike other daughters-in-law who have her parents' family to put some money and expenses.Zhang Wang's only daughter, He Shushengniang, left early, and he never had a chance to do anything for his daughter.Now he regards Anxiu as his own family, and wants to give her some private money like other family members.
An Xiu stuffed it back again: "Mother-in-law, I'm really rich, so don't give me money."
Although seeing this old lady for the first time, Anxiu could feel her kindness and love for her, like a grandma, and her heart was slightly warm.
"Xiu girl, if you don't take it, my mother-in-law will be angry!" Zhang Wang couldn't help it, so she had to put on a straight face.
Anxiu held the two hanging coins in her hands, which were extremely heavy. With her supernatural powers, she could exchange for money at will, but this money was dug out of the soil one by one by the uncles in outer robes. It was hard-earned money.If she uses it, how can she feel at peace?
Grandma thought she had no money to use, and was afraid that she would be wronged. Anxiu sniffed, thinking that she should secretly stuff it in grandma's basket later.After making up her mind, Anxiu smiled: "Then I will accept it."
"Be obedient and be good!" Mrs. Zhang touched Anxiu's black hair, very satisfied.Then he remembered something, and said, "Xiu, isn't Shusheng all right at home? Why don't you hire someone to herd cattle instead of sending Shusheng to go?"
Anxiu had no choice but to tell Zhang Wang that He Shusheng was going to school, that Old Man Li's son was not filial, and that he had no income other than herding cattle.Mrs. Zhang listened and nodded, "Shu Sheng should go to school. If you become a scholar in the future, no one will dare to bully you."
Anxiu secretly smiled, it turned out that her mother-in-law was so easy to satisfy, she just wanted to be a scholar.
Zhang Wang said again: "I know you are a soft-hearted child, but you have to do your best to help others. You don't have any income yourself, and you still have to help that old man. Poor people like him are everywhere. How can you help others?" Come here to help? Girl Xiu, listen to my mother-in-law and find a way to get rid of him."
Anxiu nodded in agreement, she understood that grandma was doing it for her own good.Mrs. Zhang didn't know that Anxiu had a simple way of earning money, and she was afraid that she would be sitting on nothing.The old man has experienced half his life, so he naturally thinks longer than the young man.
Anxiu kept all the eggs sent by her mother-in-law, a total of 160, and pork.Then I took six marinated chickens, snacks, and cloth from my cellar and repacked them in a basket for my mother-in-law to take back.There is a custom of returning to the basket.That is, relatives come with a basket of things, and when they go back, they can't leave the basket empty, and they have to put something in return.
Someone took out three silver ingots and two silver ingots from the cabinet, wrapped them with the two hanging coins, and hid them in the cloth brought by my mother-in-law.In order not to lose it on the way, Anxiu wrapped it carefully with another cloth, making sure it was safe before putting it back.
Six taels of silver can be used for many purposes. An Xiu has never been filial to her grandparents, this time she should make up for all the previous ones.
My mother-in-law thought Anxiu's basket was too heavy, so she had to refuse it.An Xiu struggled with them for a long time before giving everything to her mother-in-law.
These things are not precious, seeing her silver ingots, grandma will feel even more precious.
An Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief when they were all gone.Turn around and go back to the room, carefully put away the land deed bought in the morning.These title deeds can be exchanged for the land on the dam in the Uncle's Water Center.When picking lotus that day, Anxiu made a visual inspection, and found that the land on the dam was about the size of two football fields, and the combined unit of measurement was about 20 mu.
The land on the uncle's dam can only be regarded as second-class land, four taels of silver per mu.Excluding the five mu of fertile land that could be exchanged, Anxiu had to pay the price of fifteen or six mu, roughly 67 taels of silver.
Taking a breath, Anxiu counted the cash on her body, and it was only 59 taels.Some time ago, she made a small fortune, and she was a little complacent, but now it seems that she is really poor!Now the only thing I can collect on hand, apart from the turtle, are those pearls.
The tortoise can be sold for about 50 taels in total. Anxiu doesn't know what the market price of pearls is. She has never touched jewelry before.Anxiu has no way to convert the market price of jewelry in the new century into the currency of this era.The price of silver is different, and the degree of scarcity is different, so it is difficult to estimate.
After resting at home for a day, Anxiu's physical strength was restored.Tomorrow is the day to go to the market. As soon as the sky darkened, Anxiu began to use her supernatural powers to ripen the chickens in the yard into big chickens, pigs into fat pigs of three hundred catties, and peppers, eggplants, and cantaloupes. Cooked, got a full ox cart.Fat pigs are not easy to take care of, so Anxiu had to use supernatural powers to crush its heart.
He Shusheng and the two worked together to get the fat pig into the car. Anxiu couldn't move the dead animals and plants; All kinds of off-season vegetables are piled up on the car.The turtle and the pearl were packed in cloth bags, and He Shusheng held them in his arms.
Anxiu was driving an ox cart, and the two of them set off to Youji Market when they were ugly.These things cannot be seen by the people in Zhuangzi, otherwise they will cause a lot of gossip.
When they arrived at Youji, it was not yet bright, Anxiu drove the ox cart directly to Jinyutang.The whole street was quiet, with no one left, only the sound of cows panting.
There is no one in Jinyutang, this noisy restaurant is immersed in tranquility, and the gorgeous carvings subdued its publicity and became quiet.
Anxiu parked the ox cart at the back door of Jinyutang, and said to He Shusheng, "We're here early, the door will take a while to open, if you're sleepy, just squint, and I'll call you later."
Just as He Shusheng was about to say something, he saw the back door of Jinyutang light up and blinked. Someone stood up yawning, and shouted to the door, "Who's outside? But Miss An is here?"
The off-season vegetables sold by Anxiu last time made them a lot of money, and they were sold out in one day.In the past few days, shopkeeper Fu has been talking about Anxiu, hoping she can send some more, and asked someone to go to the government office in the street to ask if they have seen Anxiu, but they all said that they did not see this girl coming.
Shopkeeper Fu asked his assistants to keep watch at the back door every night, in case Anxiu would suddenly come one day and turn around and leave when he saw no one was there.
"It's me!" An Xiu and He Shusheng were both startled when they heard the question from the people inside.
The guy hurriedly opened the door, and said like splashing beads: "Miss An, you are here. Our shopkeeper has been in a hurry these days. The basil and spinach you sent last time are loved by many customers. The Huo family in the town We have booked a banquet for the day after tomorrow, and we ordered new things by name. Our shopkeeper told us to wait for Miss An at the back door every day. We are expecting you to come. If you don’t come, we will go to your house.”
The Huo family is the richest man in the town. There are relatives in the family who are officials in the court, and their backing is strong. Everyone in the town is afraid of them.
Anxiu and He Shusheng both pursed their lips and smiled when they saw the guy say so much in one breath.Pulling the ox cart in, An Xiu said, "Aren't I here? When will your storekeeper Fu get up? I sent good things today, you can't be the master."
When the guy heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Wait, girl, I'll call you right away. Our shopkeeper said that as long as the girl comes, it's okay to wake him up in the middle of the night. It's almost dawn now. Please wait a little bit, girl."
"You go, I'll be fine, tell Shopkeeper Fu to be as calm as possible!" Anxiu smiled politely.Waking up too early, she couldn't help yawning.
The guy knocked in his eyes, hurried upstairs, and knocked on the door of shopkeeper Fu's room.Shopkeeper Fu was a light sleeper, plus he had been worrying about the Huo family's banquet the day after tomorrow, which covered the entire nightclub of Jinyutang, and asked for rare things by name. It was really worrying, so he stayed in a daze and didn't fall asleep.
In the past few days, shopkeeper Fu sent five or six staff from the restaurant to the market and nearby markets to look for rare things. He found several wild game, but they were so ordinary that even shopkeeper Fu couldn't see them. How could they find them in the Huo family? eyes?
A big family like the Huo family doesn't care about money for food and drink, novelty is what they want.If they are not satisfied with the service, they will be offended, but a big deal will be lost.Huo's family set up a night show, enough for Jin Yutang to earn half a month's expenses, this is the master.
In desperation, shopkeeper Fu naturally thought of An Xiu.Last time the basil sent by Anxiu, the third young master of Huo's fourth room insisted that it was delicious, and immediately rewarded the guy with 100 taels of silver, and then all went, saying that it was always fresh for the old lady.The old lady was full of praise, and asked someone to send 500 taels of silver to thank shopkeeper Fu.
Hearing the man's knock on the door, shopkeeper Fu got up and hurriedly opened the door: "Is Miss An here?"
"Good luck for the shopkeeper, Miss An is here!" The guy also smiled, Anxiu just came when he was on duty, and the shopkeeper must reward him, "I see that she brought a cart full of things, There are also two cloth bags, but I can't tell what they are. She said that there are good things, and I want to show them to you, the shopkeeper."
Shopkeeper Fu beamed with joy, and said, "You go and wait on me, and say I'll be right back."
The guy ran down the stairs again, toward the back door.Seeing that Anxiu and He Shusheng were both sitting and dozing, they knew that they got up early because they were on their way.The guy turned around and went to the back kitchen. The kettle on the stove just turned on. The guy took out the best green tea, brewed a cup for Anxiu and He Shusheng each, brought out three plates of dim sum, and brought them over. He just smiled and said, "An Girl, have you woke up early and haven’t eaten yet? This is our Jinyutang’s signature snack, try it if it suits your appetite.”
Seeing that this guy is smart and eloquent, Anxiu knows that he is a delicate person, and he is the rarest person in business. Maybe he will rise up one day, thinking that he is the best businessman, and he can poach a corner, so he quickly put on a smile: "Thank you, little Brother, what's your name?"
"The young one's name is Ling Erhu." Seeing that An Xiu asked his name, Ling Erhu laughed immediately, fearing that he wanted to praise him in front of the shopkeeper.Today is considered good luck, this shift is doing well, and the God of Wealth is expected to come.
An Xiu and He Shu ate snacks and drank pure green tea, and their spirits were better than before.Among the desserts, there was a plate of peanut shortbread, a plate of red bean almond cake, and a plate of jujube paste, all of which were sweet. Anxiu got tired of eating after a few mouthfuls. She was drinking tea alone when she heard the voice of shopkeeper Fu from afar. : "Miss An is here?"
An Xiu hurriedly patted the pastry crumbs on her hands, swallowed what was in her mouth, stood up and said with a smile, "I'm here. Shopkeeper Fu is always nice."
"Busy about trivial matters all day long." Shopkeeper Fu smiled, "Get up in a hurry, don't worry about your disheveled clothes."
When Anxiu saw him, she was indeed disheveled, her hair was too shaggy and messy, she ordered a coat with one button slanted, fearing to neglect Anxiu, she hurried downstairs.
Anxiu hurriedly laughed and said, "Buyer Fu is joking, we peasants don't have those vain courtesy, so we won't mind."
Shopkeeper Fu smiled reassuringly: "Then Miss An gave us something good this time?" As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but glance into Anxiu's ox cart, and he was overjoyed when he saw the pepper.This is summer food, summer peppers are not very spicy, you can scramble eggs, the most common dish in summer, this season must be very precious, and then saw eggplant, shopkeeper Fu couldn't help but curled his lips.
Anxiu didn't hide it, straight to the point, and showed him her own things. Shopkeeper Fu was overjoyed: "I want all the off-season vegetables, and the price is four times that of the seasonal ones. What does Miss An think?"
After thinking about it, An Xiu thought it was a high price, and immediately nodded in agreement, then pointed to the pig in his cart, and said with a smile, "He just died this morning. Is shopkeeper Fu short of pork?"
"Dead?" Shopkeeper Fu was a little embarrassed, "Miss An, you are not a sick pig, are you? We eat here are all distinguished guests, with a tricky mouth, and if there is a mistake, our boss will not forgive me. I'm telling the truth , you don't mind."
Anxiu rolled her eyes, thinking that the merchants in ancient times were really reputable, and it was all thanks to the country's emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business, which made them cautious in every step. "I don't know about it. The pig died suddenly. Shopkeeper Fu might as well find someone he knows." An Xiu smiled innocently.
Shopkeeper Fu said to Ling Erhu in a low voice: "Go and wake up Master Yang, tell him something urgent, and let him hurry up." Master Yang is the chef of their restaurant, and he has seen countless things in his life. , he can tell when the meat was killed and what diseases the animal had before.
When Ling Erhu heard this, he hurried to run, very active.Shopkeeper Fu smiled and said, "Go to Master Yang to have a look, and then set the price for Ms. An."
"It should." Anxiu can also understand.
"These chickens are not bad, Miss An is also here to sell? I can make a decision on this right now." Shopkeeper Fu saw that Anxiu's chickens had bright red combs and a large body, all of which were of high quality.Chicken, pork, etc., the restaurant buys a lot every day.
"Yeah!" Anxiu laughed, "What price will shopkeeper Fu give? If it's possible, I won't look elsewhere to save trouble."
"Forty Wen a catty." Shopkeeper Fu smiled, "The best chicken in the market is only 35 Wen a catty. The girl has been doing business all year round, so she should know."
Anxiu did the math, thirty chickens, each about five or six catties, forty Wen, a catty of Wen, can sell for six thousand Wen, and exchanged for silver, that is five taels of silver.
That's right, the money for one mu of land came back, Anxiu was also very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Well then, shopkeeper Fu asks the assistant to weigh it."
After a while, Ling Erhu brought in a fat chef and said it was Master Yang.The chef has not yet woken up, and his eyes are dimmed.Shopkeeper Fu coughed and said, "Master Yang, come and see this pig. Ms. An said that she died suddenly. Please see what kind of disease she has."
Seeing that Chef Yang frowned, Anxiu must be thinking in his heart that Laozi is a super chef, not a veterinarian.
Chef Yang yawned, and he became more energetic. He rubbed his eyes, looked at the pig's eyelids, tongue, and hair, and finally concluded after a while: "It's so good, the meat broke the heart, crushed the heart." .”
Shopkeeper Fu and Ling Erhu both laughed, looked at An Xiu and said, "Miss An really needs something to feed pigs."
Anxiu also laughed and did not refute.Shopkeeper Fu saw that the pig was very fat, and he was not sick, so he said generously, "We buy live pigs at [-] yuan a catty, and the price of the pig is also the same, if it is higher, I can't control it."
After thinking about it, An Xiu knew that he had not treated her badly, so she narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Success, shopkeeper Fu is kind, let's just follow the price you said."
Finally, Shopkeeper Fu, Chef Yang, and Ling Erhu weighed Anxiu's vegetables, chicken, and pigs.The accountant was not there, so shopkeeper Fu calculated the total amount himself. He used to be an accountant, and finally said with a smile: "Girl, the pig is 150 cash, the chicken is 580 cash, and the vegetables are 930 cash. The total is [-] cash." Nine thousand nine hundred and thirty texts."
Anxiu smiled, and used a stone on the ground to calculate bit by bit, and finally found that shopkeeper Fu's calculation was very accurate, and he didn't cheat her a penny, so she laughed immediately: "It's done!"

Section 071 Selling Vegetables and Fat Pigs
Just after breakfast, the third aunt Jiang came to the door, carrying snacks in her hand.I changed into decent clothes, but there were black stains on the chest and cuffs, which had not been washed off for many years, and were all adhered to the clothes; my hair was tied up in a scrunchie, but it smelled of sweat, it must have been unwashed for a month.
In those chubby hands, there was actually a box of snacks.When Anxiu saw the box of dim sum, she felt familiar. It looked like she had carried it yesterday, and then she was stained with chicken feces by Mrs. Jiang.Thinking of this, Anxiu almost vomited, and acid water began to flow in her stomach again.
"Xiu girl, I heard that you were seriously ill yesterday, so my aunt came to see you." Since being frightened by An Xiu last time, Jiang Shi is now respectful to An Xiu, not daring to scold her anymore, and smiles at An Xiu from a long distance away, There is a green vegetable leaf left between the yellow-stained teeth, which is very conspicuous.
Anxiu stood there and didn't pick up the box of snacks, and didn't go around the door with her. She said with a faint smile, "Third Aunt, I'm all well, thank you for thinking about it. If there's nothing wrong, let's go to the patriarch's house now and talk about buying and selling fields." Alright."
Jiang Shi has always been anxious, afraid that Anxiu would go back on her word, now that she heard her say this, she was immediately elated, and hurriedly said: "It's done, it's done. Let's go now?"
Anxiu didn't want to keep her at home, for fear that her stench would contaminate his house, so of course she agreed to go now.Then I went into the room and took 25 taels of silver, carefully wrapped the rest, and found that there were only more than 60 taels left. I immediately knew that I could no longer be lazy and had to actively earn money.
Before going out, Jiang shi insisted on leaving the snacks at Anxiu's house, saying that they were sent to see her.Anxiu glanced coldly, the dim sum seemed to have been disassembled and covered with paste again, she felt very disgusted, and hurriedly said: "I really don't need Third Aunt, we are juniors, how dare we eat your elders' food? Take it back and give it to me." They eat aquatic and lake students."
Jiang Shi falsely declined: "Is there any reason to bring it back? Let Shusheng and Yu'er eat."
"Shusheng doesn't like these things. Yu'er has changed her teeth, so she can't eat sweets. Third aunt, you should take them back. I'll accept your wish." Anxiu was a little impatient, and walked away.In fact, He Yuer had already changed her teeth.
Jiang picked up some snacks again and followed quickly, feeling very happy in her heart.I was worried all night last night that this matter would not be done, fearing that Anxiu would regret it if she knew about the deserted fields on the river beach, but now looking at it, she was so worried, God still helped her.
The patriarch doesn't have to go to the field, but he specializes in cutting off the family's shortcomings and buying and selling things in the village. The farmers in the village will give him rations every year.A new patriarch will be elected after the previous patriarch dies.The current patriarch was newly elected the year before last, but he is in his early fifties. He is energetic, thoughtful, and literate. He is a first-class capable person in Zhuangzi.
After Anxiu and Jiang Shi explained their intentions, the patriarch frowned slightly. Seeing Jiang Shi's dirty and smelly body, he covered his nose with a handkerchief in disgust, and said, "Your daughter-in-law, your man knows about the sale of the land, right?" ?”
"I know, I know!" Jiang said hurriedly.Facing the sharp eyes of the patriarch, Jiang was a little scared, and she shrank her neck uncontrollably, lacking in confidence.
The patriarch found out a family tree, the yellowed pages contained every detail of the family.After watching, the patriarch suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Jiang: "Your family only has six acres of paddy fields, and you sold five acres to Anxiu. What do you expect the five members of your family to eat?"
Jiang forced himself to calm down, and hurriedly quibbled: "Isn't there still an acre of paddy fields? If you plant three seasons of rice, you can eat it for half a year. When the farming season is busy, I go to help others to do work and earn some money. My family's Shuisheng doesn't like doing farm work. Learn a craft later. There are still six acres of dry land, and those who grow some cotton and rapeseed can also earn income!"
"One mu of paddy field, your family of five will live for half a year? Shuisheng is going to learn crafts, what kind of crafts?" The patriarch said displeased, "Your daughter-in-law, the ugly words are the first, this field is sold, and you are not allowed to go back on your word in the future. Your family's Shuisheng If he is not well-behaved, our clan will not tolerate him."
Jiang nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, patriarch, I know all about it."
The patriarch looked at Anxiu again, and said, "Business must be fair and voluntary. Girl Xiu, you know that the government has reclaimed the barren land on the river bank, and it will be sold soon, right? Although the barren land is a bit barren, it is very cheap for two taels of silver per mu. After three to five years, it will be fertile land. Do you insist on buying He Youlu's house?"
Anxiu was taken aback for a moment, she really didn't know about this matter, so she couldn't help asking, "Why didn't I know when it happened?"
Jiang's heart suddenly turned cold, the patriarch intervened, and it was estimated that the field would not be sold, and the face was suddenly painted, which was extremely ugly.
Anxiu glared at her, and seeing her face change, she knew that she was deliberately hiding from her, and wanted to sell her field and buy it into barren land for storage. Anxiu's face darkened: "Third Aunt, why didn't you do this?" Tell me? Thinking about selling your land to me at a high price, and then go to buy good land."
"This is not a place to quarrel!" The patriarch knocked on the table majestically, his voice was not high, but it was very intimidating.The patriarch's home is the most authoritative place in Zhuangzi. Everyone has to follow the rules, otherwise they will be executed according to the village rules.
Although An Xiu is a newcomer, she knows the rules and dare not say anything.
Although Jiang's heart was full of unwillingness and anger, she didn't dare to say a word, she just bowed her head and waited for the patriarch to deal with it.
"Okay, cheating is not allowed in our clan. I have already made it clear to both of you. Whether you buy or sell the land, you can talk about it separately. Youlu's daughter-in-law is the elder, so you talk about it first." The patriarch took out a big book again. , ready to record the result of this processing.
In order to prevent disputes in the village, the patriarch must inform both parties of the situation before buying or selling.If both parties know the truth and still insist on the original decision, the patriarch will not stop it, but they are not allowed to cause trouble because of this matter in the future, otherwise the clan rules will not allow it.
Gritting her teeth, Jiang said: "I didn't think about the wasteland on the river beach, and I forgot to tell Girl Xiu. If Girl Xiu still buys my field, it will be two hundred yuan cheaper per mu. The soil quality of my field is one of the best in Zhuangzi. Well, the rice planted is strong and plentiful."
The patriarch wrote down her words, and then asked Anxiu: "What does girl Xiu think, please tell me."
Anxiu took a deep breath, and spoke clearly and resolutely: "Third Aunt deliberately hid it from me, she made the mistake first. I proposed the land purchase first, and I didn't figure out the situation myself, so I made even more mistakes. If Third Aunt is willing to four If you sell two or one mu to me, I will buy them all."
"Four twos and one mu?" Jiang yelled when she heard the words, "Are you dreaming?"
The patriarch knocked on the table again, and said in a deep voice, "I've said it many times, don't quarrel loudly, and your daughter-in-law is good at talking."
The patriarch also recorded Anxiu's words, and concluded after writing: "Youlu's daughter-in-law is willing to sell for [-] renminbi, but Anxiu is only willing to buy for [-] liang, and the negotiation fails. You can talk about it when you go back, and you both agree to come again." Come on, let's go back today."
"Don't don't." Jiang gritted her teeth, as if she was in pain, "Since I'm here today, I'd better discuss it and settle this matter. Girl Xiu, add another five hundred wen per mu, and this aunt will sell it to you .”
Anxiu sneered, buying Jiang's field was just to cover up people's eyes and ears: the crops in Anxiu's field can use supernatural powers, and they must be better than everyone else's. If someone asks, they will infer that the soil quality of this field is good.Everyone in the village knows that Jiang's fields are of good quality, so it is not easy to arouse suspicion.Otherwise why spend the extra money?No matter how barren the fields are, Anxiu can grow food.
What's more, even if you don't plant it yourself, you can exchange it with the uncle's family for some fields on the dam of the uncle's family.Aunt Tang knew that the fields of Sanbo's family were good, so she would definitely like it.
Thinking of this, Anxiu smiled lightly: "I've finished what I said, four taels per mu. I won't buy it for a penny. If the third aunt thinks my price is cheaper, then find a buyer. I'll go first the patriarch."
Anxiu knew that the Jiang family would sell it.The further you go, the harder it is to sell.
Sure enough, Jiang Shi Limara grabbed Anxiu's sleeve, and accompanied him with a smile: "Sincerely buy your aunt's field, why are you so impatient? I didn't say no to sell it, how about adding two hundred Wen per mu? How about you go to Landlord Sun's house?" , Absolutely can’t buy such a good field.”
This is true. Landlord Sun's land is rented out all the year round and overused, so the geology is naturally not as good as Jiang's.But for Anxiu, no matter what kind of land, it is a normal result.Which kind can solve other people's doubts, which kind is good field.
"Third Aunt, didn't I speak clearly enough?" An Xiu narrowed her eyes and smiled, "If it's four or two acres, I'll buy it. If you want an extra penny, you can ask other buyers, I can't afford it. "
Seeing that Anxiu refused to give in even a single step, Jiang's face turned purple with anger. If she hadn't been at the patriarch's house, she would have jumped up and scolded. She was so harsh when she had money, and the five mu of land added up to only one thousand wen more.She built a house, and the gate alone cost more than one thousand Wen.
"If we can't agree, come back tomorrow, there are still people waiting!" The patriarch said angrily, he was already very lenient to them, and allowed them to discuss for a long time, if it was someone else, he would have been sent away by now.The Zhuangzi has been very quiet recently, not many people come to the patriarch to deal with affairs, and they are idle when they are idle.
When Anxiu heard this, she stood up and bid farewell to the patriarch.
Seeing that she was so determined that there was no room for turning back, Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to hold her back: "Sure, four taels is four taels. As a family, you can earn your aunt's coffin with peace of mind, and I can sell it."
Seeing that they had reached an agreement, the patriarch wrote down the results of their discussion in a notebook, then wrote a note, stamped the clan's seal, and asked them to press their fingerprints.The Jiang family's title deed was first shown to the patriarch to see if it was fake, and Anxiu's silver was also shown to the patriarch to see if it was pure silver.
After the patriarch appraised that their belongings were correct, he handed over the belongings to them respectively, and the Zhuangzi's business was considered completed, which was recorded in the transaction book dedicated to genealogy.
Coming out of the patriarch's house, Jiang was so angry that he didn't look at An Xiu.If An Xiu hadn't shocked her last time, she would have scolded her a few times.What a shameless girl, she actually lowered the price with her, causing her to lose five taels of silver.
Thinking of losing five taels of silver for no reason, Jiang's flesh hurts, and he scolded Anxiu hard in his heart.
Anxiu's house is to the west, and Jiang's is to the south. When they reach a fork in the road, they will not go the same way.Anxiu said politely that the third aunt left first.Jiang shi walked quickly, pretending not to hear, once Anxiu was able to leave, she would scold as she walked, the scolding was extremely nasty.
"Her third aunt, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Shi came back from the field, his trousers rolled up, revealing his fat calf, which was covered with mud.On weekdays, Mrs. Xiao doesn't like to talk to Mrs. Jiang. Compared to Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Jiang is lazy and greedy, so Mrs. Xiao can't understand her.
Just now when she heard that she seemed to be scolding Anxiu, Xiao Shi called out to her.A friend of a friend is a friend, an enemy of an enemy is a more reliable friend.Anxiu is Xiao's enemy, but also Jiang's enemy. Based on this, the two sisters-in-law have something in common.
As soon as she saw Mrs. Xiao, Mrs. Jiang complained about her bitterness. She refused to give up any money from Anxiu, and insisted on buying her five acres of fertile land for four taels of silver per mu. Anxiu: "Damn girl with a dark heart, if I wasn't in a hurry to use the money, I would rather go out of stock than sell it to her."
Seeing that this was the case, Mrs. Xiao immediately stopped talking.Those fertile fields were indeed sold cheaply, but those fields did not belong to the Jiang family in the first place, they were cheated by her when the family was separated.At that time, Mrs. Xiao hadn't been married yet, and these words were told to her by her sister-in-law Tang later.
The right and wrong of it were distorted by Tang.
As for what happened, Xiao didn't know, but the fields of the third family were better than theirs, whether it was soil quality or geographical location, they were all good.Thinking that Anxiu was being cheapened in this way, Xiao-shi spat, comforted Jiang-shi a few words, and went home.
"Father, we can't live in this house anymore. I will rebuild the house at the end of the year!" After returning home, Mrs. Xiao told He Youbao.
The incident of harvesting rice yesterday and the incident of Anxiu's illness later made He Youbao extremely depressed. Hearing what Xiao said, he kept silent and continued to smoke.
"Did you hear me?" Seeing that He Youbao was silently smoking a cigarette and ignoring her, which was obviously a silent protest, Mrs. Xiao became angry, and raised her voice and shouted, "Deaf or dumb? Let me tell you, you don't answer." , I also have to build a house at the end of the year!"
"What do we do?" He Youbao said angrily, "We have no money, and we will sell all our rations at the end of the year, and we have no money to build a house."
"Ask Anxiu for a loan!" Xiao Shi smiled treacherously, "She builds a house and buys land, so it's impossible that she doesn't have money. Our parents live in a dilapidated house, and she doesn't care when she gets rich. I'll go to the patriarch to reason. I'm not afraid that she won't give the money. Besides, we didn't ask her for it, but let her borrow it."
"Our house is fine, where can we not live in it?" He Youbao saw Xiao's mind, and wanted to change to Anxiu's firebrick house, which was bright and grand.And this is a very good excuse to ask Anxiu for money. Parents are building a house and ask her to borrow money.It's okay if you don't have money, she built a big house for everyone in the village to see.
No one would believe that she had no money.
"Where do you live?" Xiao yelled angrily, "The west side has a lot of rain leaks, the walls are wet and half collapsed, and the main house leaks in several places. Our son and daughter-in-law have made a fortune, why do we still live in this crappy house? "
"The family is separated, and the children have no responsibility to build a house for you!" He Youbao stood up abruptly, "When the family was separated, it was agreed that the two families will live together. Unless we are too old and disabled, the children will give us Stuttering. You somehow said that you want to build a house, thinking that the patriarch will really help you? It's not easy to be a girl, and life is better after a long time, so you don't make trouble with her."
"You useless bastard, you only know how to dig the ground and dig the ground all your life, and you will die of poverty all your life!" Xiao scolded, "Anyway, I've decided to build the house, just wait and see!"
He Youbao sighed, put his head down to light the cigarette again, took a deep breath, and the pipe made a whirring sound.He spit out the circles under his eyes, more like exhaling the usual sulking breath, the dark red old face that has been exposed to the sun all year round is wrinkled and wrinkled, and the brows are tightly locked together.
Today is the day for Youji to go to the market. After getting up in the morning and doing so many things, I have to go the day after tomorrow.Anxiu asked He Shusheng to put the tortoise pot away in the guest room so that no one could see it.It was inevitable that someone would stop by and tell the truth, He Zaosheng and the others' lies would be revealed.
He Shusheng obediently moved the tortoise into the guest room.
Anxiu was going to cut some wild vegetables and stew pig food back. She took a sickle and a basket and just went out. She heard someone asking for her name from a distance.
There were only three women, each carrying a large basket in their hands, covered with a red cloth, bulging high.One is old, with silver hair but full of energy, and two middle-aged, who look about the same age as the second aunt, wearing blue cloth jackets, not new, but very neat and comfortable.
Seeing Anxiu standing at the door, the old woman smiled all over her face: "Is it girl Xiu? Oh, my mother-in-law hasn't come here for a year, and I almost didn't recognize you. You've grown taller."
An Xiuruo made a little guess, probably He Shusheng's grandmother and two aunts.Ever since Anxiu came here, he hadn't seen them come to the door, so naturally he didn't recognize them.Anxiu was afraid of making mistakes, so she just smiled: "Why is my mother-in-law here? Shusheng, come out quickly, my mother-in-law is here!"
When He Shusheng heard this, he hurriedly carried the tortoise pot into Anxiu's room, stuffed it under her bed, covered it with the hanging bed curtain, and then went out.Seeing grandma, first aunt, and second aunt coming with gifts, she immediately went up to meet her and took the heavy basket from grandma's hand: "Mother-in-law, first aunt, second aunt, why are you here?"
He Shusheng's grandmother Zhang Wang held Anxiu's hand, satisfied with this beautiful niece and daughter-in-law, and said with a smile: "Your uncle's brothers went to our Zhuangzi to announce the good news, saying that Xiu girl was pregnant. Your father-in-law and I were so happy that we paid homage to our ancestors overnight. Bringing your two aunts here to give you a gift. Xiu, isn’t there a lot of embarrassment? The first child is really uncomfortable.”
After the two aunts put down their things, they also came over to ask if Anxiu was very sick, and asked what kind of food they wanted to eat, and asked the uncles to get it.
Anxiu just laughed, and it took a long time to explain: "I'm not pregnant, I made a mistake." She also compiled how she vomited yesterday, how she suspected she was pregnant, how she told her second aunt, and how her second aunt couldn't wait to inform her family when she was so happy. The rhetoric told He Shusheng's grandmother and aunt.
The three of them were obviously disappointed.
Anxiu had no choice but to apologize, and picked He Yu'er back at noon, and there were some radishes, cabbage, clam shells, rabbit meat, chicken, and fish in the cellar. Anxiu got some of each.Fried fish pieces, stewed chicken with potatoes, fried clam shell meat with peppers, braised rabbit meat, stir-fried cabbage, put the radish in boiling water first, then put it in cold salad, fried peanuts, and went to the second uncle's house to ask for a jar of fermented soybeans , fried with shallots, made a full eight dishes, and then made egg soup.
The second aunt Zhu helped Anxiu to light the fire, and He Yuer took her grandmother and first aunt to look around, looking at their houses, pigpens, cowsheds, chicken coops, rabbit cages, and then took a look at their bedrooms, looking in the closet, New clothes in the quilt cabinet, new quilts.
Grandma Zhang Wang's eyes were so moved that her eyes were wet: "It's all good, all is good! Girl Yu, your mother has appeared in the sky, and bless you brothers and sisters to have a good life. My mother-in-law is also relieved. From now on, be down-to-earth." Yes, stronger than anything."
The eldest aunt Liu was so envious that her eyes almost fell out. Although Zhangjiazhuang was more than ten miles away from Hejiazhuang, the news that Anxiu made a fortune and built a new house was recently spread. In the past, it was so evil that my aunt Li didn't believe it at first, but now I see it, I really believe it.
Anxiu has indeed made a fortune.
He Yu'er showed Zhang Wang's embroidery work: "Mother-in-law, this is the flower I embroidered. I have only learned it for a few days, and it doesn't look good. When Yu'er learns, I will embroider beautiful ones for my mother-in-law first. "
Zhang Wangshi held it in her hand, she was shocked, if she didn't say it, how could she tell that it was from a child's hand?A peony was rusted, the stitches were delicate, and it seemed to be alive. Zhang Wang was quite surprised: "Yu'er, how did you learn such a great skill? It's so beautiful, it can sell for a lot of money."
He Yu'er smiled innocently: "When Yu'er earns money, I will buy new clothes and make new shoes for my mother-in-law and father-in-law, and honor you all!"
"Ai, ai!" Zhang Wang's voice was choked up.A year ago when He Shusheng left his grandmother's house, Mrs. Zhang Wang saw that he was injured, which was beaten by Mrs. Xiao with a fire stick. In a fit of anger, he brought two uncles to fight over him.Later, son-in-law He Youbao knelt down in public and begged them to go back. Zhang Wang became angry and vowed never to come to their house again.
In a flash, it is a year.Compared with a year ago, He Yu'er seems to have grown taller, her face is not as pale as before, her snow-white cheeks are red with apples, and she is abnormally delicate. Zhang Wang knew that An Xiu was really good to He Shusheng and He Yuer, and she felt emotional Thousands, tears almost overflowed.
There were guests at home, Anxiu asked He Shusheng to call old man Li back for dinner.It's rare to eat a hearty meal, so he can enjoy it too.
After a while, old man Li and He Shusheng also came back.Grandma was even happier when she saw their cows. Anxiu's life has really changed drastically.Asked who the old man was, Anxiu told her grandmother the truth.Grandma didn't say anything, but she pursed her lips with a trace of displeasure.
When eating, Anxiu brought out the newly bought pear wood table with red lacquer, long teak wood benches, blue fine porcelain bowls and plates, and ebony chopsticks inlaid with silver heads. It's really beautiful; the eldest aunt Liu's eyes can't be pulled out, she is very envious.
Zhang Wang is full of joy and pride.
The table was full of dishes, which made grandma and two aunts sigh again.
After dinner, the two aunts insisted on helping Anxiu clean up the dishes.Anxiu refused, grandma Zhang Wang said with a smile: "Xiu girl, let your aunt clean up for you, come here, my mother-in-law has something to tell you."
Anxiu had no choice but to follow Zhang Wang out of the kitchen.The baskets brought by the mother-in-law and the two aunts are placed in the bedrooms of Anxiu and Yu'er.My mother-in-law opened it for her to see: "You didn't post the post when you built the house, and we didn't hear about it. It was only when it was finished that I heard people vaguely talking about it. You are not pregnant, and you won't bring these things back today. Don't take it too lightly as a gift for building a house last time."
Anxiu glanced at the three baskets, each containing two bolts of cloth, forty or fifty eggs, one piece of pork, and two packs of pastries.
"My mother-in-law is outrageous, what should I say?" Anxiu hurriedly refused, "I haven't been filial to you all year round, but asked your elders to give you gifts. If people know about it, I don't know how to embarrass me."
"Others say whatever they want!" Zhang Wang has a hot temper and doesn't care about those mundane things. He just took Anxiu's hand and took out a cloth bag from his bosom to her, "There is no separation from your uncles. Although I am in charge of the money, I have to discuss with them about the use of a single penny. You spend the two hanging money with the consent of your uncle and aunt. Don’t think it’s too little, ah!"
Anxiu was really anxious this time, and forced the purse back into her grandmother's hand: "Mother-in-law, as you have seen, we are not short of food and drink now. It is not easy for uncles to earn money, so I cannot ask for your money. Wait." When I can't live on, I will go to my mother-in-law and father-in-law to have a stutter."
"Be obedient, Xiu, take it!" Zhang Wang was determined to give her the money.Anxiu has no parents, unlike other daughters-in-law who have her parents' family to put some money and expenses.Zhang Wang's only daughter, He Shushengniang, left early, and he never had a chance to do anything for his daughter.Now he regards Anxiu as his own family, and wants to give her some private money like other family members.
An Xiu stuffed it back again: "Mother-in-law, I'm really rich, so don't give me money."
Although seeing this old lady for the first time, Anxiu could feel her kindness and love for her, like a grandma, and her heart was slightly warm.
"Xiu girl, if you don't take it, my mother-in-law will be angry!" Zhang Wang couldn't help it, so she had to put on a straight face.
Anxiu held the two hanging coins in her hands, which were extremely heavy. With her supernatural powers, she could exchange for money at will, but this money was dug out of the soil one by one by the uncles in outer robes. It was hard-earned money.If she uses it, how can she feel at peace?
Grandma thought she had no money to use, and was afraid that she would be wronged. Anxiu sniffed, thinking that she should secretly stuff it in grandma's basket later.After making up her mind, Anxiu smiled: "Then I will accept it."
"Be obedient and be good!" Mrs. Zhang touched Anxiu's black hair, very satisfied.Then he remembered something, and said, "Xiu, isn't Shusheng all right at home? Why don't you hire someone to herd cattle instead of sending Shusheng to go?"
Anxiu had no choice but to tell Zhang Wang that He Shusheng was going to school, that Old Man Li's son was not filial, and that he had no income other than herding cattle.Mrs. Zhang listened and nodded, "Shu Sheng should go to school. If you become a scholar in the future, no one will dare to bully you."
Anxiu secretly smiled, it turned out that her mother-in-law was so easy to satisfy, she just wanted to be a scholar.
Zhang Wang said again: "I know you are a soft-hearted child, but you have to do your best to help others. You don't have any income yourself, and you still have to help that old man. Poor people like him are everywhere. How can you help others?" Come here to help? Girl Xiu, listen to my mother-in-law and find a way to get rid of him."
Anxiu nodded in agreement, she understood that grandma was doing it for her own good.Mrs. Zhang didn't know that Anxiu had a simple way of earning money, and she was afraid that she would be sitting on nothing.The old man has experienced half his life, so he naturally thinks longer than the young man.
Anxiu kept all the eggs sent by her mother-in-law, a total of 160, and pork.Then I took six marinated chickens, snacks, and cloth from my cellar and repacked them in a basket for my mother-in-law to take back.There is a custom of returning to the basket.That is, relatives come with a basket of things, and when they go back, they can't leave the basket empty, and they have to put something in return.
Someone took out three silver ingots and two silver ingots from the cabinet, wrapped them with the two hanging coins, and hid them in the cloth brought by my mother-in-law.In order not to lose it on the way, Anxiu wrapped it carefully with another cloth, making sure it was safe before putting it back.
Six taels of silver can be used for many purposes. An Xiu has never been filial to her grandparents, this time she should make up for all the previous ones.
My mother-in-law thought Anxiu's basket was too heavy, so she had to refuse it.An Xiu struggled with them for a long time before giving everything to her mother-in-law.
These things are not precious, seeing her silver ingots, grandma will feel even more precious.
An Xiucai breathed a sigh of relief when they were all gone.Turn around and go back to the room, carefully put away the land deed bought in the morning.These title deeds can be exchanged for the land on the dam in the Uncle's Water Center.When picking lotus that day, Anxiu made a visual inspection, and found that the land on the dam was about the size of two football fields, and the combined unit of measurement was about 20 mu.
The land on the uncle's dam can only be regarded as second-class land, four taels of silver per mu.Excluding the five mu of fertile land that could be exchanged, Anxiu had to pay the price of fifteen or six mu, roughly 67 taels of silver.
Taking a breath, Anxiu counted the cash on her body, and it was only 59 taels.Some time ago, she made a small fortune, and she was a little complacent, but now it seems that she is really poor!Now the only thing I can collect on hand, apart from the turtle, are those pearls.
The tortoise can be sold for about 50 taels in total. Anxiu doesn't know what the market price of pearls is. She has never touched jewelry before.Anxiu has no way to convert the market price of jewelry in the new century into the currency of this era.The price of silver is different, and the degree of scarcity is different, so it is difficult to estimate.
After resting at home for a day, Anxiu's physical strength was restored.Tomorrow is the day to go to the market. As soon as the sky darkened, Anxiu began to use her supernatural powers to ripen the chickens in the yard into big chickens, pigs into fat pigs of three hundred catties, and peppers, eggplants, and cantaloupes. Cooked, got a full ox cart.Fat pigs are not easy to take care of, so Anxiu had to use supernatural powers to crush its heart.
He Shusheng and the two worked together to get the fat pig into the car. Anxiu couldn't move the dead animals and plants; All kinds of off-season vegetables are piled up on the car.The turtle and the pearl were packed in cloth bags, and He Shusheng held them in his arms.
Anxiu was driving an ox cart, and the two of them set off to Youji Market when they were ugly.These things cannot be seen by the people in Zhuangzi, otherwise they will cause a lot of gossip.
When they arrived at Youji, it was not yet bright, Anxiu drove the ox cart directly to Jinyutang.The whole street was quiet, with no one left, only the sound of cows panting.
There is no one in Jinyutang, this noisy restaurant is immersed in tranquility, and the gorgeous carvings subdued its publicity and became quiet.
Anxiu parked the ox cart at the back door of Jinyutang, and said to He Shusheng, "We're here early, the door will take a while to open, if you're sleepy, just squint, and I'll call you later."
Just as He Shusheng was about to say something, he saw the back door of Jinyutang light up and blinked. Someone stood up yawning, and shouted to the door, "Who's outside? But Miss An is here?"
The off-season vegetables sold by Anxiu last time made them a lot of money, and they were sold out in one day.In the past few days, shopkeeper Fu has been talking about Anxiu, hoping she can send some more, and asked someone to go to the government office in the street to ask if they have seen Anxiu, but they all said that they did not see this girl coming.
Shopkeeper Fu asked his assistants to keep watch at the back door every night, in case Anxiu would suddenly come one day and turn around and leave when he saw no one was there.
"It's me!" An Xiu and He Shusheng were both startled when they heard the question from the people inside.
The guy hurriedly opened the door, and said like splashing beads: "Miss An, you are here. Our shopkeeper has been in a hurry these days. The basil and spinach you sent last time are loved by many customers. The Huo family in the town We have booked a banquet for the day after tomorrow, and we ordered new things by name. Our shopkeeper told us to wait for Miss An at the back door every day. We are expecting you to come. If you don’t come, we will go to your house.”
The Huo family is the richest man in the town. There are relatives in the family who are officials in the court, and their backing is strong. Everyone in the town is afraid of them.
Anxiu and He Shusheng both pursed their lips and smiled when they saw the guy say so much in one breath.Pulling the ox cart in, An Xiu said, "Aren't I here? When will your storekeeper Fu get up? I sent good things today, you can't be the master."
When the guy heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, "Wait, girl, I'll call you right away. Our shopkeeper said that as long as the girl comes, it's okay to wake him up in the middle of the night. It's almost dawn now. Please wait a little bit, girl."
"You go, I'll be fine, tell Shopkeeper Fu to be as calm as possible!" Anxiu smiled politely.Waking up too early, she couldn't help yawning.
The guy knocked in his eyes, hurried upstairs, and knocked on the door of shopkeeper Fu's room.Shopkeeper Fu was a light sleeper, plus he had been worrying about the Huo family's banquet the day after tomorrow, which covered the entire nightclub of Jinyutang, and asked for rare things by name. It was really worrying, so he stayed in a daze and didn't fall asleep.
In the past few days, shopkeeper Fu sent five or six staff from the restaurant to the market and nearby markets to look for rare things. He found several wild game, but they were so ordinary that even shopkeeper Fu couldn't see them. How could they find them in the Huo family? eyes?
A big family like the Huo family doesn't care about money for food and drink, novelty is what they want.If they are not satisfied with the service, they will be offended, but a big deal will be lost.Huo's family set up a night show, enough for Jin Yutang to earn half a month's expenses, this is the master.
In desperation, shopkeeper Fu naturally thought of An Xiu.Last time the basil sent by Anxiu, the third young master of Huo's fourth room insisted that it was delicious, and immediately rewarded the guy with 100 taels of silver, and then all went, saying that it was always fresh for the old lady.The old lady was full of praise, and asked someone to send 500 taels of silver to thank shopkeeper Fu.
Hearing the man's knock on the door, shopkeeper Fu got up and hurriedly opened the door: "Is Miss An here?"
"Good luck for the shopkeeper, Miss An is here!" The guy also smiled, Anxiu just came when he was on duty, and the shopkeeper must reward him, "I see that she brought a cart full of things, There are also two cloth bags, but I can't tell what they are. She said that there are good things, and I want to show them to you, the shopkeeper."
Shopkeeper Fu beamed with joy, and said, "You go and wait on me, and say I'll be right back."
The guy ran down the stairs again, toward the back door.Seeing that Anxiu and He Shusheng were both sitting and dozing, they knew that they got up early because they were on their way.The guy turned around and went to the back kitchen. The kettle on the stove just turned on. The guy took out the best green tea, brewed a cup for Anxiu and He Shusheng each, brought out three plates of dim sum, and brought them over. He just smiled and said, "An Girl, have you woke up early and haven’t eaten yet? This is our Jinyutang’s signature snack, try it if it suits your appetite.”
Seeing that this guy is smart and eloquent, Anxiu knows that he is a delicate person, and he is the rarest person in business. Maybe he will rise up one day, thinking that he is the best businessman, and he can poach a corner, so he quickly put on a smile: "Thank you, little Brother, what's your name?"
"The young one's name is Ling Erhu." Seeing that An Xiu asked his name, Ling Erhu laughed immediately, fearing that he wanted to praise him in front of the shopkeeper.Today is considered good luck, this shift is doing well, and the God of Wealth is expected to come.
An Xiu and He Shu ate snacks and drank pure green tea, and their spirits were better than before.Among the desserts, there was a plate of peanut shortbread, a plate of red bean almond cake, and a plate of jujube paste, all of which were sweet. Anxiu got tired of eating after a few mouthfuls. She was drinking tea alone when she heard the voice of shopkeeper Fu from afar. : "Miss An is here?"
An Xiu hurriedly patted the pastry crumbs on her hands, swallowed what was in her mouth, stood up and said with a smile, "I'm here. Shopkeeper Fu is always nice."
"Busy about trivial matters all day long." Shopkeeper Fu smiled, "Get up in a hurry, don't worry about your disheveled clothes."
When Anxiu saw him, she was indeed disheveled, her hair was too shaggy and messy, she ordered a coat with one button slanted, fearing to neglect Anxiu, she hurried downstairs.
Anxiu hurriedly laughed and said, "Buyer Fu is joking, we peasants don't have those vain courtesy, so we won't mind."
Shopkeeper Fu smiled reassuringly: "Then Miss An gave us something good this time?" As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but glance into Anxiu's ox cart, and he was overjoyed when he saw the pepper.This is summer food, summer peppers are not very spicy, you can scramble eggs, the most common dish in summer, this season must be very precious, and then saw eggplant, shopkeeper Fu couldn't help but curled his lips.
Anxiu didn't hide it, straight to the point, and showed him her own things. Shopkeeper Fu was overjoyed: "I want all the off-season vegetables, and the price is four times that of the seasonal ones. What does Miss An think?"
After thinking about it, An Xiu thought it was a high price, and immediately nodded in agreement, then pointed to the pig in his cart, and said with a smile, "He just died this morning. Is shopkeeper Fu short of pork?"
"Dead?" Shopkeeper Fu was a little embarrassed, "Miss An, you are not a sick pig, are you? We eat here are all distinguished guests, with a tricky mouth, and if there is a mistake, our boss will not forgive me. I'm telling the truth , you don't mind."
Anxiu rolled her eyes, thinking that the merchants in ancient times were really reputable, and it was all thanks to the country's emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business, which made them cautious in every step. "I don't know about it. The pig died suddenly. Shopkeeper Fu might as well find someone he knows." An Xiu smiled innocently.
Shopkeeper Fu said to Ling Erhu in a low voice: "Go and wake up Master Yang, tell him something urgent, and let him hurry up." Master Yang is the chef of their restaurant, and he has seen countless things in his life. , he can tell when the meat was killed and what diseases the animal had before.
When Ling Erhu heard this, he hurried to run, very active.Shopkeeper Fu smiled and said, "Go to Master Yang to have a look, and then set the price for Ms. An."
"It should." Anxiu can also understand.
"These chickens are not bad, Miss An is also here to sell? I can make a decision on this right now." Shopkeeper Fu saw that Anxiu's chickens had bright red combs and a large body, all of which were of high quality.Chicken, pork, etc., the restaurant buys a lot every day.
"Yeah!" Anxiu laughed, "What price will shopkeeper Fu give? If it's possible, I won't look elsewhere to save trouble."
"Forty Wen a catty." Shopkeeper Fu smiled, "The best chicken in the market is only 35 Wen a catty. The girl has been doing business all year round, so she should know."
Anxiu did the math, thirty chickens, each about five or six catties, forty Wen, a catty of Wen, can sell for six thousand Wen, and exchanged for silver, that is five taels of silver.
That's right, the money for one mu of land came back, Anxiu was also very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Well then, shopkeeper Fu asks the assistant to weigh it."
After a while, Ling Erhu brought in a fat chef and said it was Master Yang.The chef has not yet woken up, and his eyes are dimmed.Shopkeeper Fu coughed and said, "Master Yang, come and see this pig. Ms. An said that she died suddenly. Please see what kind of disease she has."
Seeing that Chef Yang frowned, Anxiu must be thinking in his heart that Laozi is a super chef, not a veterinarian.
Chef Yang yawned, and he became more energetic. He rubbed his eyes, looked at the pig's eyelids, tongue, and hair, and finally concluded after a while: "It's so good, the meat broke the heart, crushed the heart." .”
Shopkeeper Fu and Ling Erhu both laughed, looked at An Xiu and said, "Miss An really needs something to feed pigs."
Anxiu also laughed and did not refute.Shopkeeper Fu saw that the pig was very fat, and he was not sick, so he said generously, "We buy live pigs at [-] yuan a catty, and the price of the pig is also the same, if it is higher, I can't control it."
After thinking about it, An Xiu knew that he had not treated her badly, so she narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Success, shopkeeper Fu is kind, let's just follow the price you said."
Finally, Shopkeeper Fu, Chef Yang, and Ling Erhu weighed Anxiu's vegetables, chicken, and pigs.The accountant was not there, so shopkeeper Fu calculated the total amount himself. He used to be an accountant, and finally said with a smile: "Girl, the pig is 150 cash, the chicken is 580 cash, and the vegetables are 930 cash. The total is [-] cash." Nine thousand nine hundred and thirty texts."
Anxiu smiled, and used a stone on the ground to calculate bit by bit, and finally found that shopkeeper Fu's calculation was very accurate, and he didn't cheat her a penny, so she laughed immediately: "It's done!"
