"Look! I dug so much! You said you wanted to take it! Give me the coins quickly!" Goudan looked at Xu Yinyin and said anxiously, as if he was afraid that Xu Yinyin would regret it.
Xu Yinyin looked at the bag he carried with his clothes, but couldn't help but frowned, "You pick out all the mud, dead leaves and branches in it, and there's not even a pound here. Then go dig
Some."
More than half of a large bag was filled with mud, which was also rare.
Goudan wiped a handful of sweat with his free hand. The mud on his hand made his whole face even dirtier, and he couldn't even see his appearance. He stared at Xu Yinyin and said unconvinced: "You said it,
As long as I dig it out, you'll keep it, and your words don't count!"
Xu Yinyin:......
Trying to reason with unreasonable children is a fool's errand.
She simply said: "I am the one who wants to make copper coins. I have the final say. If you can't do this, you can't do it. If you want to make copper coins, just do what I say!"
Goudan gritted his teeth, glared at Xu Yinyin several times, and finally snorted heavily, stamped his feet, and ran away.
Xixin couldn't help but stare, "This little boy!"
Not long after, several older children came rushing over with their clothes in their laps. They were all sweating profusely but their eyes were shining. "Sister Siya! Look, is it enough for one pound?"
Hearing that sound, Sister Si Ya, Xu Yinyin couldn't help but twitch her lips and corrected them: "Call me Sister Yinyin."
Several children were also chicken thieves and immediately changed their tune, "Sister Yinyin! Is it enough for one pound?"
Xu Yinyin looked at what they had brought in. They were all pure wild sweet potatoes, unlike the dog eggs that Xiancai had, which were made of mud and broken branches.
After some estimation, the difference is pretty much the same. Even if the difference is by two, two, or three, it doesn't matter.
Immediately, Xixin collected all their belongings in a basket, and then gave each of them a copper plate.
The older children who got the coins were so happy that they put the coins in their pockets and asked hurriedly: "Sister Yinyin, do you still accept it?"
Xu Yinyin looked at the sky and said: "It's still collected, but it's getting dark soon. If you can't dig as much as before, you have to go home early. It will be the same if you dig again tomorrow.
It’s all over the sky.”
When the children heard this, they responded and hurriedly ran towards the foot of the mountain.
One after another, the remaining younger children also came running, more or less, in short, they were all less than a pound, and they didn't know the weight. Xu Yinyin also smiled and accepted them, and told them one by one.
Got a copper plate.
"It's getting dark, everyone, go home, otherwise the adults at home will come looking for you. If you come out to dig tomorrow, I'll take it."
The children, who were grinning after winning the coin, originally wanted to continue digging while they were still alive. After hearing Xu Yinyin's words and looking at the sky that was about to get dark, they were obedient and nodded, then they all ran back to the village together.
.
The first batch of older children who had sold wild sweet potatoes came running back now, carrying wild sweet potatoes that were almost the same as before. They looked at Xu Yinyin and said excitedly: "Sister Yinyin! Look, we have dug so many more.
Woolen cloth!"
"Oh! You guys are so awesome." Xu Yinyin smiled and accepted it, then gave each of them a copper plate and asked them all to go home.
Xi Xin carried a large basket full of wild sweet potatoes and followed Xu Yinyin, both of whom were preparing to return to the village.
At this time, Goudan, who had run away before, ran back in a hurry.
Xu Yinyin couldn't help but be startled when she saw him sweating profusely with his hands folded around his clothes. She thought he just ran away angrily and wouldn't dig anymore. Unexpectedly, he went on digging?
But when she saw what he had brought, Xu Yinyin couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Okay, at least it's much better than before. At least I don't see any mud anymore. Just break the branches. This kid has frizzy hair, so don't expect him to clean it.
Looking at this bag again, there was almost one that weighed just over a kilogram. Xu Yinyin thought for a moment, and seeing that he was sweating profusely after working for so long, she accepted them all and gave him two copper coins.
Touching the two copper plates, Goudan grinned and became happy. With the two copper plates, he could buy a bag of candy or some mud. When the salesman comes to the village tomorrow, he would buy it!
"You keep your word, I will dig some wild sweet potatoes and sell them to you tomorrow!"
He said something to Xu Yinyin and trotted past Xu Yinyin to go home.
Xu Yinyin couldn't help but be speechless when she heard what he said. If she really meant what she said, you kid wouldn't be able to earn these two coins.
He shook his head and smiled, but saw the boy who had run away came back again. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. What does this boy want to do again?
Goudan ran back panting, looked up at Xu Yinyin for a while, and then asked her: "If I tell you a secret, will you also give me a copper?"
Xu Yinyin:......
What secret does a child have? Who hit whom today? Or who ate something but didn’t give it to whom? Or who stopped playing with whom?
Do you still want to sell it for silver?
She smiled, but also said: "What's the secret? Let me see if it's worth the money."
This was just a question with a smile. She has always been more patient with children. After all, the students she taught in her previous life were only a few years older than the idiot in front of her.
The children liked her, and when get out of class was over, they often gathered around the podium to ask her questions about this and that.
But Goudan said: "It has something to do with your workshop! It must be valuable!"
Is it related to the workshop?
Looking at Goudan's expression, Xu Yinyin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said calmly: "You are a child, how can you know the secrets of my workshop? I know, you just want to keep my money."
Goudan was not convinced, "Who said that? I just know! I heard what my father and mother said with my own ears. If you don't believe it, forget it! When the time comes, just don't regret it!"
Mo Dazhuang and Liu?
I won’t talk about Mrs. Liu, but Mo Dazhuang. I heard that she knew someone outside and she often ran around. She didn’t even come back for the Chinese New Year last year. I don’t know what she was doing outside.
It seems like I just came back yesterday?
She saw him coming to the door this morning.
Xu Yinyin pondered for a while, not daring to be careless.
Children love to lie, but children are also the worst at telling lies. If Goudan hadn’t heard something, he would never have told it in front of her.
I guess it's possible that Ms. Liu complained to Mo Dazhuang about something, such as the fact that she wasn't hired yesterday.
But what if.
It's better to make a mistake than let it go.
With this thought in mind, she touched five copper coins, looked at Goudan and said, "Here, tell me and let me hear it. If it is really a terrible secret, these five copper coins will be yours."
It's just a matter of a few copper coins. She can't suffer a loss or be cheated. To her, it's a trivial matter.
Goudan's eyes lit up when he looked at the five copper coins, but the next second, he raised his chin and said, "I want ten copper coins!"
After all, he is still a kid, and he is raising prices just for the money, and that's all he has to offer.
Xu Yinyin counted out five more copper coins and added them together, "Tell me, if it weren't for the secret, I wouldn't give you this copper coin."
After seeing ten copper coins, Goudan was happy and said in a blur: "I heard my father say that your workshop is making money, so he wants to find his friends to steal the goods from your workshop tonight."
