At this time, the cold winter roars, every family stay at home, closed the door, guarding the fire to bake sweet potatoes to eat, the whole apricot village has fallen into unprecedented silence.
But the orange family made concerted efforts to chop bamboo from the mountain and build a greenhouse, which was surrounded by bamboo plaques compiled by Zhao Changfu day and night, and filled with many banana leaves. In a daze, they built a greenhouse. The vegetables have dodged the cold wind, so they all grow water.
Li's eyes, music in the heart, this morning up, picked a big basket, with orange autumn pear braved the cold wind came to the town.
They heard that the Chau's coachman said that their dry goods shop was on West Street, so they went to West Street first and found Hengji dry goods shop. At this time, the shop was already open, and Zhou bent over to sort out the shelves.
The Zhou family is only 20 years old, but the orange Qiuli sisters always treat her as their elder sister. When they meet, they become more and more intimate. They rush into the room and shout, "Hello, sister Zhou
Chou, startled, turned around and said with a smile, "it's you! Oh, long time no see. I miss you so much Then he put his arms around one and asked with a smile, "where's your mother?"
As he approached the shop, Li said with a smile, "sister, I'm here!"
Zhou let go of the two children, straight up, three steps and do two feet, went to Li, took her hand, said with a smile: "sister-in-law, I can look forward to you!"
Li pointed to the big basket on the stone steps at the door and said with a smile, "I'll give you some dishes to taste!"
When Zhou saw the green vegetables on the stone steps, he was surprised and pleased: "eh! Is this what you grow? "
Li nodded and said with a smile, "yes
Zhou said, "how do you plant it on a cold day?"
Qiuli said with a smile: "sister Zhou, this is the way my three sisters came up with. You don't know. "
Zhou touched his face, which was cold with orange. He went to the counter to take a small hand stove and handed it to her: "here! Put it on your face
But orange said thank you and quickly picked it up.
Zhou said with a smile: "when the weather is cold, the melon sticks are better sold! Next time you make me 80 Jin! "
Can orange smack tongue: "80 Jin? Every five days? "
Zhou nodded.
Qiuli said: "our family is only two mu of dry land. Later, we raised all the remaining 20 mu of sweet potato in the farm, but 80 Jin in five days I'm afraid it's not enough! "
But orange said with a smile: "second sister is afraid of this? If it's not enough, I'll buy it at the second and third uncle's house then! "
Autumn pear "ah" a, say: "how can I not remember?"
Zhou said with a smile, "when it comes to business, you really can't compare with your third sister."
Qiuli said with a smile: "I naturally can't compare with her, my third sister is a little money fan!"
One sentence made everyone laugh. Li asked Zhou about her husband's illness. Zhou said that he was all right. Today, the old couple went back to their hometown with the coachman to celebrate the new year. He helped pack some luggage at home, so Zhou came to open the door.
Li nodded and said with a smile: "you can save a lot of heart when your mother-in-law goes back to the countryside for the new year
With a "ha ha" sound, Zhou and Li looked at each other and laughed tacitly.
After chatting for a long time, they felt more intimate than before.
For fear of delaying Li's mother and daughter to sell vegetables at the market, Zhou said with a smile, "we haven't seen each other for a long time. We should have invited you to dinner. But my husband is packing for his parents at home. It's in a mess. He doesn't even have a place to stand. Now you are in a hurry to sell vegetables. Why don't you come to town with the coachman next time and have dinner at our house? "
Li said quickly, "my sister is so polite!" He quickly left a large number of dishes for Zhou, and then he took his two daughters out of the house.
"Ah," he said! Sister in law, you are so kind! Your dish is worth a lot of money - "
but orange head didn't return and left a sentence:" it's too vulgar to talk about money! This is for my sister. Go in quickly
Qiuli said with a smile, "third sister, you said it's vulgar to talk about money. Why do you always want to earn money?"
But orange said, "I mean sister Zhou talks about money with us. But I'm not saying that it's not vulgar to talk about money with others. "
Can orange "Puchi" a smile, pull Li's arm to ask: "Niang, what are you thinking?"
Li said, "I'm thinking about whether we should send some to Aunt Zhou."
Can orange want to also don't want to say: "want to send! Of course! We all know doctor he, sister Zhou and aunt Zhou in the town. Who else can we give them to if we don't give them to her? "
Li's face was awe inspiring and said unnaturally: "when I went to the town to show Qiuli my hand, aunt Zhou asked me to come over at the end of the year to do embroidery All I remember is to clean up the farm and forget about it. It's not a good idea to meet aunt Zhou... "
Can orange smell speech to smile a way: "this calculate what?"? Can't someone else's Cen mansion send a embroidery mother? At that time, our family was so poor that Mrs. Zhou was merciful and sympathized with us, so she wanted to invite her mother to do embroidery. But now, our family has the business of melon sticks, and we have a stable income every month. Why should we do embroidery again? Granny Zhou must know that in her heart! "The words made Li feel relaxed a lot, so he went to Cen's house to find aunt Zhou with a vegetable basket.
As soon as aunt Zhou saw Li, she was so happy that she asked, "you are here!" Hearing Qiuli Kecheng standing by Li's side, he called her cleverly: "Hello, grandma Zhou!" Busy "ah" should, and touched the hands of Qiuli, with a smile asked: "hands can be good?"
Qiuli nodded and said with a smile: "it's already good!"
Li apologized: "aunt Zhou. Our family has been very busy in the past six months. " So I told you all about renting land and planting vegetables.
When Aunt Zhou heard that there was a harvest, she asked, "what you are carrying is what you grow?"
Li said with a smile: "exactly. New species of cabbage, chrysanthemum, top fresh. It's coming to you to try it. " He also turned out the wild vegetables at the bottom: "I don't know whether Mr. Cen still likes to eat these purslanes. I picked a lot of them yesterday. Please bring it in for me
Aunt Zhou said with a smile, "where are you going to be bothered? I've been busy all the time. The kitchen manager is sick again, which puts a whole lot of things on me. I'm so busy every day! All those children are worried. I have to buy vegetables -- "aunt Zhou said, clapping her hands and laughing," you've done me a big favor! "
Li was startled and said, "Auntie, I'm afraid I don't have time to come and make the wedding dress for the second lady --"
aunt Zhou said with a smile, "that's nothing. The second lady will be out of the cabinet in a few days! Waiting for you to make the wedding dress? I think so. Since your family has grown a lot of vegetables, why don't we just supply them to cenfu? "
But orange was very happy. He didn't wait for Li's statement, so he answered loudly: "no problem! It's on us
Li said in a hurry: "but what are you talking about? Master Cen's mouth is tricky -- "
aunt Zhou" haha "smiles:" isn't it used to be tricky? My master has a tough mouth for meat, but not for vegetables. It's cold at the end of the year. The dishes on the street are not as good as you grow. Either you don't pull a few or you don't pull your own. The master said, "it's not appetizing to see it!" The master is thinking of a fresh dish in the field. What you buy outside is not as delicious as what you buy in the field. Tomorrow, the boiling water is scalding. Pour a little soy sauce on the table. I can't stop eating! Well, according to the market price, you send me 30 jin fresh vegetables every day! How are you
Li was both surprised and pleased, and asked in a trembling voice, "thirty Jin?"
Aunt Zhou asked, "what? Is there not enough food in the field? 20 jin? Do you have 20 jin? Wan'er, you know that there are dozens of people in our Cen family. Twenty Jin of vegetables a day can't be less! "
Li busily nodded: "enough! Enough! Enough! Thirty Jin is enough
Aunt Zhou asked, "thirty Jin a day is enough - how many vegetables have you planted?"
Li's shy smile: "at least there are more than ten mu - the other 20 mu are planted with sweet potato -"
aunt Zhou said: "can you eat it? Have you found a buyer? "
Li was embarrassed and said, "you are our first buyer. We're just going to sell the rest of the dishes in the market after we deliver them to you. Let's see what the market is like and whether people buy them or not. "
