Chapter 72

The village head looked at him: "Baoshan, we Daliang village haven't won the autumn touching activity every year. I can't lift my head among these village heads, so you have to participate this time, or you have to participate if you don't participate. Otherwise, I won't dry the grain in the village next year. However... If you can participate, I can reduce some public food for you. How about five people in two rooms and three people ？”

Wang Mudan heard it and said angrily, "village head, just pull out a river. Don't let public food? Let two heads at a time."

Li Hongmei immediately said, "yes, you can't go back, village head. If you win, you must reduce public food for us."

The village head said, "that's for sure."

Then he used his little eyes to aim at xiaobaoshan.

Li Hongmei agreed. Xiao Baoshan has no room to refuse. If she doesn't agree, she has to agree.

……

Because touching autumn is a big activity in the town, the private schools are all on holiday, and Xiao Baofeng doesn't have to go to the private school.

The day before touching autumn, ye Xiaoxian took the time to soak soybeans. That morning, she made tofu and jelly with Li Hongmei, Xiao Baozhu and Xiao Baofeng.

Ye Xiaoxian made the same amount as she sold in the county, no more, no less.

She had no impression of touch autumn, and she didn't know the situation that day. She was afraid that she couldn't sell too much.

Xiao Baoshan also gathered in the village early in the morning. The village head selected more than a dozen strong men, but Xiao Baoshan should take the lead in training.

When the sun rose, ye Xiaoxian and they were ready to go to town.

Wang Mudan and Chen Ju also took their children to go out. When they saw Li Hongmei and they also sold jelly, Wang Mudan said in a strange way: "Oh, I really fell into the money hole. Today, the whole village went to touch Qiu. It's good for you to rush to do business in the county."

Li Hongmei said, "who said we were going to the county? We're going to the town."

"Want to take advantage of more people to sell jelly and tofu flowers? Tut Tut, didn't you go last autumn? There are several stalls selling jelly. You're not afraid to be killed when you rob business."

Li Hongmei was not irritated, but smiled and said, "I sell mine and they sell theirs. Whoever drinks well will drink from who. You should be as unreasonable as you."

"Cut!" Wang Mudan couldn't quarrel. He rolled his eyes and left.

Before departure, ye Xiaoxian asked Li Hongmei, "Mom, we've all gone. Is Grandpa at home alone? He doesn't have dinner at noon. Will he swear?"

"Ha ha!" Li Hongmei doesn't like Lao Xiao the most. She gets angry when she mentions him: "how can he make himself hungry? He also wants to participate in the touch autumn activity. Moreover, he has a lot of private money. He sells so much food at the touch autumn site, and he will certainly make himself full. If you don't believe you wait, he won't go now, but he's just sleeping in. When he's finished sleeping in, do you think he'll go or not."

……

"Touch autumn" was held in the town. The place was in an open grassland in the suburb of the town. When ye Xiaoxian arrived, there were already a sea of people there. People came to stroll and sell goods, and children chased and played on the lawn. It was very lively.

As Li Hongmei said, many people came to sell jelly. Ye Xiaoxian even saw the father and son of the old man at the bridge.

When the old man at the bridge saw Ye Xiaoxian coming, his eyes immediately flashed fierce light and spit in front of him.

As a result, the sputum almost splashed at the feet of an aunt who was going to buy jelly. The aunt immediately left in disgust.

"Hey, don't go, elder sister. Come and buy jelly." The old man at the bridge wanted to save his aunt, but she turned around and left.

Ye Xiaoxian wanted to laugh.

The old man at the bridge head wants to hit people, but he doesn't have the courage when so many people are here.

Ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei picked a suitable place, set up a stall and began to sell.

"Sell tofu flowers and jelly!"

"A bowl of tofu costs two Wen. Buy a bowl of tofu and send a bowl of jelly."

“……”

Many people also came to Daliang village. They were basically known by Li Hongmei. Li Hongmei would also greet them: "aunt Dazhuang, do you want a bowl of jelly or tofu?"

"Eh, isn't this the new daughter-in-law of Dongge's family? Come to the autumn party. Would you like a bowl of jelly?"

“……”

Touch autumn is a big local festival. Villagers who come to play will wear clothes they usually hate to wear, bring some pocket money, and then buy some snacks at the stall for another day.

Although it is autumn, the weather in Daliang town is still hot. In addition, it is outdoor, so it is best to eat to quench summer heat and thirst. Tofu flowers and jelly are the first choice.

The villagers of Daliang village always knew that Li Hongmei set up a stall in the county. Because they had not seen it before, there were all kinds of statements. Some people said that Li Hongmei did something else in the county in the name of setting up a stall, and some even said that she did her old job in the county.

But now that they see the way they set up a stall, they believe that Li Hongmei is really doing serious business.

Seeing that the tofu flowers made by Ye Xiaoxian were smooth and tender, the villagers couldn't help but come and eat a bowl.

"Aunt Xiao, we are all from the same village. Can we have more?" Someone asked.

Li Hongmei said: "the quantity can't be added. It's full of a large bowl. Can I add a spoonful of sugar for you? It's hard to do business now. Sugar water is more expensive than soybeans."

Few people in the village would come to buy sugar to eat. When they heard that they could put an extra spoonful of sugar, they stopped talking.

The sun rises higher and higher, and there are more and more people.

Xiao Baozhu has always been responsible for washing dishes.

There is a river nearby. As long as the water in the bucket runs out, she and Xiao Baofeng will carry the water back. She will wash the leftover bowls of the guests.

While I was washing, I suddenly heard Xiao Baofeng shout: "Sir, you also come to touch autumn?"

Wang Xiucai?

Xiao Baozhu immediately raised her head.

Sure enough, I saw Wang Xiucai standing in front of the stall. Beside him was a young man dressed like him. They should come together.

Xiao Baozhu's heart suddenly quickened.

"Oh, it's Baofeng's teacher. I saw it some time ago. I haven't seen it for a while. I almost can't recognize it. You're more handsome. Do you want to drink tofu flowers? You're Baofeng's teacher. You don't charge money, don't charge money." Li Hongmei greeted her warmly.

Wang Xiucai first smiled with Li Hongmei and then looked at Ye Xiaoxian.

I don't know why, knowing that she has been married, but every time I see her, I still can't help palpitating.

Ye Xiaoxian also asked, "Mr. Wang, would you like a bowl of tofu flowers? Last time you only drank jelly, but you haven't drunk tofu flowers yet."

"OK, let's have two bowls. My companion and I have one bowl each." Wang Xiucai said.

Ye Xiaoxian quickly took a bowl of tofu flowers and brought them to Wang Xiucai.

When Wang Xiucai was receiving the bowl, his fingers inadvertently touched Ye Xiaoxian's fingers. The touch was like being struck by lightning, and the crisp feeling spread all over his body.

He couldn't help standing still.
