Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

"You... you... just wait and see!" The woman gritted her teeth and left quickly.

She doesn't fight with two of them, and she has to find another booth quickly, so she can't let others snatch it all up.

After a while, everyone put their things out, and Grandma Xin drove over in a bullock cart.

"Aunt Ji, why do you only see stalls and no one else?" Taking off the things on the cart and busy setting them up, Xia Beibei couldn't help but look at the deserted street. Wondering.

Hearing her words, Xia Xiaoju burst out laughing with a 'poof'.

"Jiu Niang, we have to wait a little longer. It's just dawn, and the people in the town are just getting up. The most important thing for us is to grab a good seat." Aunt Ji explained to her.

Xia Beibei: "..."

She was a little speechless, and now she really realized that it is really not easy to make some money, so she came here early to grab a seat, and then waited for the people in the town to get up and go shopping.

If she was at home, she could have a good night's sleep.

Moreover, there is another serious problem. They are here to sell things, so they come so early, but those who go out to buy things in the village don't get up so early, maybe they haven't gone out yet Well, when will we have to wait.

"Shiqiu, go and buy some steamed buns. I only ate some noodles when I was at home, so I'm not full." A smell of meaty steamed buns wafted from nowhere, and Xia Beibei immediately turned to Wu Shiqiu. Said.

Since we have to wait, let's eat a little more. When we were at home just now, we didn't eat much. If we get hungry when we get busy, it will be uncomfortable.

She took out an ingot of ten taels of silver and gave it to Wu Shiqiu.

"Go to the bank and exchange some copper coins."

"Yes." Wu Shiqiu responded, took the money and turned to leave.

"Xiaoju, you will be by Jiuniang's side later, just help her." Grandma Xin looked at the colorful baubles that Xia Beibei had put out, and then at her bamboo basket and Bamboo baskets, don't have to think about it, I know that Xia Beibei's things must be easy to sell.

Xia Beibei and Wu Shiqiu will be too busy for a while.

"Hey, good." Xia Xiaoju naturally agreed, anyway, she was not of much help when she came to the town to sell things.

After a while, after Xia Beibei and the others finished eating the steamed stuffed buns, a few women came to the street with baskets on their shoulders.

"Come and have a look, the best dustpan, the best dustpan, it can be used for sweeping the floor and drying beans."

"Rouge gouache, ladies and aunts who are passing by, come and have a look, high-quality rouge gouache." Although there were only a few people, the stall owners on the street had already shouted at the top of their voices.

Even Aunt Ji was holding her own basket and kept hawking.

"Sister Jiuniang, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and shout, look at those people, they are all shopping in the street." Seeing Xia Beibei's indifferent appearance, Xia Xiaoju became anxious immediately.

Xia Beibei doesn't look like she's here to sell goods.

"Xiaoju, do you think this silk flower looks good?" Xia Beibei casually pinched a purple and yellow rose silk flower, not to mention the rose itself, even the leaves on it were lifelike.

Xia Xiaoju was going to shout a few times, but when she heard Xia Beibei's words, she turned her head sideways and looked at the silk flower in Xia Beibei's hand, "It's beautiful to look at, but sister Jiuniang, hurry up and shout Say a few times."

Didn't see those people getting closer and closer, everyone was excited.

"You girl, why can't you be so impatient, you can't hear who is calling those aunts when you call out together, come on, let me put this silk flower on you." Although she was not so serious I have set up a street stall, but I still do it based on people's winks.

"Put it on for me?" Xia Xiaoju was a little dumbfounded.

Why did you put it on for her? Didn't Sister Jiuniang sell it? Besides, Sister Jiuniang gave her two very beautiful flowers last time.

"Yes, I'll put it on for you." Xia Beibei raised her hand and put the silk flower on Xia Xiaoju's hair, "Well, it really is that Buddha relies on gold clothes and people rely on clothes. Once you wear this silk flower, it will come out very well." It's getting slimmer."

She also praised herself secretly, how could this hand be so skillful, such a beautiful silk flower can be made, it is really amazing.

"Shiqiu, you wear one too." She turned her head and said to Wu Shiqiu on the other side.

"Miss Nine, I'm afraid that I won't take it off if I wear it." Wu Shiqiu truthfully expressed his inner thoughts.

Although she is a guard, she is also a woman. She has grown up so much, and used to hang out with a group of men all day long. Not to mention silk flowers, she has never had an iron hairpin inserted in her head.

Seeing so many silk flowers now, she wished she could put them all in her arms and sleep.

"Haha, Shi Qiu, you are a girl who likes to listen to this story, but there are so many silk flowers here. If you pick one off, you will add another one. Don't worry, when you go back, you will still have one on your head." " Xia Beibei said with a cheerful smile.

Wu Shiqiu raised his eyebrows, casually picked up a blue silk flower, and placed it on his head.

Just as Xia Beibei picked up a purple silk flower, those women had already walked to the front of Xia Beibei's stall.

"Hey, little girl, this silk flower is really beautiful, how can I sell it?" A woman picked up a silk flower, compared it to her own head, and looked at the women who came with her beside her.

"How is it, does it look good?" she asked.

"Eldest sister, the silk flowers here are ten fen a flower, and the ones here are 20 renminbi, and the ones here are more expensive, one tael and three renminbi." Xia Beibei introduced.

"Hiss—" As soon as she finished speaking, the women immediately gasped, "One tael and three taels of silver, it's so expensive."

Although the woman holding the silk flower with one tael and three silk flowers was a little frightened, she was still reluctant to look at the silk flower in her hand. It was a little expensive, but she had never seen such a beautiful flower before. silk tweed.

"Sister, look at how white this silk flower is when you wear it on your head. Moreover, you get what you pay for. We do business, and we have to pay for it. You see Look at the texture and material, this is the finest cloud gauze, not to mention the entire Nanshan Town, even in Anyun County, can you find any silk flowers made of cloud gauze? Sister, you Say yes?"

Last year, Nanshan Township was the only piece of cloud and mist gauze in the cloth village, and she bought it for the purpose, of course, to make these silk flowers.

"This little girl can really talk. I'm in my thirties. How can I call you a big sister? It's almost like an old lady." Although she said so, the smile on the woman's face became more and more serious. It got deeper and deeper, and the whole person became radiant.

Who doesn't like others to praise her for her beauty, doesn't she?

"Sister, you don't look like you are in your thirties. You must have lied to me, a little girl, right? You only seem to be in your early twenties." Xia Beibei smiled and picked up another silk flower.

"Elder Sister, look, this silk flower seems to be more suitable for you. Do you want to buy it too? It's not expensive, only twenty yuan."

She knew at a glance that these women would not be willing to spend a tael of silver to buy three silk flowers. For them, a tael of silver could buy a lot of things.

"Well, this one is also beautiful, let me see." The woman immediately followed Xia Beibei's words, put down the silk flower in her hand that she was reluctant to buy, and took the one in Xia Beibei's hand. flower.

"Sisters, take a look too. There are also auspicious cloud knots, swastika knots, tuanmian knots, and Chinese knots, all of which are extremely beautiful. Admiring them is refreshing. "Xia Beibei left the woman on this side to Wu Shiqiu, and then went to greet a few people on the other side.

"This is beautiful, beautiful, and they are connected together, little girl, what is this?" A younger woman immediately fell in love with a concentric knot hanging on a shelf, and looked at Xia Beibei. asked.

"This eldest sister, this is a sympathy knot. It is used by the girl's family to give... the man she likes. Look at you..." Xia Beibei hesitated. Come on, buying this concentric knot is meaningless, and it costs money.

"That's just right, my guy likes me to give him a surprise. This concentric knot is beautiful. How much money is it? I bought it and let my guy put it on his waist so that he can think of me all the time." .” The woman was very happy, although she was old, but who said that the aunt could not have a girlish heart.

"Hehe, it takes a lot of effort to weave this concentric knot, and it costs one tael of silver each." Xia Beibei stretched out a finger.

"A tael of silver." Hearing this, the woman immediately frowned.

"Sister, the concentric knot in your hand is made of seven colors, and it is in the shape of a butterfly. Most people can't weave it, and you can see that there are so many concentric knots here, but this one in your hand is the best. Yes, a tael of silver is already very affordable." Seeing her hesitation, Xia Beibei quickly said.

This aunt chose the most expensive one, okay, if this one can't sell for a tael of silver, then she will have to lose money.

Well, it's a bit too much to say that it's a loss, but she has been busy all winter, so she must make money.

"Let me take another look." The woman still hesitated.

"Then watch slowly, Xiaoju, come here and introduce the other concentric knots to this elder sister, they are also very beautiful." Xia Beibei pulled Xia Xiaoju, and she hurried over.

"Auntie, what do you want to see? This is the simplest one, which is two cents and five bucks. It is the most suitable for sewing buttons on clothes. Look, in that cloth shop, But there is no such a beautiful plate buckle."
