Yang stared blankly at the pair of gold bracelets and the pair of silver bracelets in his hands for a long time.
Then the eye sockets started to turn red.
"Buy, why are you buying these? It's a waste of money. I can still wear this fishing net to mend the fishing net... It would be great to save the money to buy fields..."
Turning around, he raised his hand and wiped it on his eyes.
Huo Xi felt a little emotional. She and Nian'er were so lucky to have met such a good pair of adoptive parents.
Yang Fu covered his mouth and smiled. His sister must have been extremely happy.
"Sister, Xi'er said that when I make a lot of money in the future, I will buy you a big gold bracelet that is two or three fingers wide and light for your hands to wear. I will also buy several styles for you to wear."
Huo Erhuai looked at Huo Xi with a smile. This is a child who knows how to repay kindness. He and his mother are so lucky to have picked her up.
Yang collected her emotions, put the bracelet in her purse, and carefully put it into her arms.
He turned around, took Huo Xi in his arms, and glared at Yang Fu: "What do I want with such a big gold bracelet? I shouldn't eat or drink it, and I will be worried about thieves."
Caressing Huo Xi lovingly: "Mom doesn't want those valuable things. I heard your father said that you want to buy a field, so our family will save the money to buy the field. When the time comes, your father and I will take care of it carefully, and we won't let you
Several children are hungry, but the whole family is well fed and clothed.”
Huo Xi nodded seriously.
Yang entered the cabin, hid the bracelet in the bilge, and put it away together with the silver hairpin that Huo Erhuai had received last night. She stroked it several times, put it away carefully with a smile on her lips.
Yang Fu and Huo Xi whispered: "I don't know what my brother-in-law bought for my sister. Xi'er, do you think my brother-in-law bought any gifts for my sister?"
Huo Xi glanced at Huo Erhuai and whispered, "I think I bought it."
The corners of Yang Fu's mouth curled up.
The family reinstalled the cabin panels with a clang, and spent a whole morning reinstalling the two cabins.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the ship restored to its original state. This was their home. It was originally bare and looked like a cargo ship.
Yang fetched water from the river again and cleaned the entire boat carefully. It was brand new in a short time.
"Sister, aren't you going back to Qionghua Lane?"
"I won't go back. It's not too cold now. I'll be on the boat with you."
As he spoke, he touched Huo Nian's little hands and face. He was relieved to see that he had not been blown cold by the river wind and that he was jumping for joy because he saw water again.
Seeing that Huo Erhuai and Yang had already brought some groceries from home, Huo Xi said, "Then let's fish in the river during this period, and then sell the goods after a while."
"Ah? No more goods?" You bought so many things from Huai'an, are you in no hurry to sell them?
Yang was also a little puzzled. She just wanted to live with her family, not that she didn't want to sell goods. "Why don't you take Nian'er back to live in Qionghua Lane?"
Huo Xi then explained: "This time everyone is transporting grain to the north. The people in the city probably haven't had fish and shrimp for a while. We just take advantage of these few days to catch more fish and shrimp to sell, and we will definitely be able to sell it at a high price."
Moreover, everyone has returned from Huai'an one after another, and they probably bought a lot of goods from Northern China, which are all sold together. When there is competition, it is not easy to sell at a high price. Their family just avoids this peak period.
After hearing Huo Xi's explanation, everyone nodded in agreement.
Yang patted her thigh: "No, during this period, my mother went to the fish market, looking for shrimps, crabs and small fish to buy. Where can I find the goods? As soon as someone brought fish and shrimps to sell, they were robbed, and the price was higher than before.
No matter how much you pay, there will be people asking for it. Tsk tsk.”
Her eyes were so hot that she wished she could immediately go to the river to catch fish and sell them for money.
"Then let's fish and sell fish." Huo Erhuai decided.
He doesn't know how to do business, and he doesn't know how to fish? It's his specialty.
The family got on the boat and left the outer city ferry.
"Sister, have you locked the door? Our goods cost hundreds of taels of silver."
"How could I know! Your brother-in-law and I locked the door tightly." Hearing that those items were worth several hundred taels of silver, Yang's heart trembled. She got up and looked at them several times last night, but she didn't even get a sound sleep.
After listening to Huo Erhuai talking about their journey north to Huai'an all night, he felt regretful and did not follow.
I also heard that Xi'er wanted to buy a field. I thought about the dozens of acres of fertile land that the Yang family had. I also counted the money at home and the goods in the house. How much silver could I get from selling it and how much field could I buy? I was surprised and happy all night.
, did not sleep well.
After hearing that Yang had arranged the goods well, Yang Fu went to whisper to Huo Xi again: "Xi'er, what are you doing with those things you left on the ship?"
Yang also went to see Huo Xi.
"I'm going to give it to brother Zhao Sui and Huo Zhong, who are in charge."
"That's what I have to give away. This time I won their favor, so I have to remember their kindness. If I just keep these linen cloth, cane sugar and wine, will it be a little thin?" Yang frowned.
"It's okay, mother. We are already a family like this. Why do we make a fool of ourselves? Just express our feelings."
"Okay, mom and your dad listen to Xi'er."
Huo Xi smiled at her, turned towards the stern of the boat and said loudly: "Dad, we have to go to the river bank first to pay errands, and then go fishing!"
"Hey, dad knows."
Thinking that they might meet Zhao Sui at the river park, Yang and Huo Xi packed up the gifts for Zhao Sui.
Arriving at the river park in the afternoon, Zhao Sui was indeed there.
After handing in the errand, he gave him a large basket of linen, cane sugar, candied fruits from the north and a jar of wine.
Zhao Sui declined and accepted.
"Then I'll lick my face and accept it."
"Don't say that. If you hadn't revealed the news to us first and helped us during the shipment, this trip to my family would not have been so smooth." Yang said a lot of gratitude to Zhao Sui.
if.
It made Zhao Sui feel very comfortable. This family is a person who remembers their kindness.
"Why are you giving me linen cloth? My mother can weave one or two pieces a month, so there is no shortage of cloth."
"What your mother weaves is from your family. This is linen from the south that my Xi'er bought. It was shipped all the way from Huizhou. Please let your mother and grandma try it. Is there any difference with the linen from Jiangnan?"
.”
"Then I'll thank you on behalf of my mother and my milk."
After exchanging pleasantries, many fishing boats came to the river station one after another for business. Zhao Sui was also busy, so he said goodbye to him and left.
After leaving the river mooring, the family took the boat to open water.
Sure enough, there were very few fishing boats in the river.
One is that they are all still on their way back, the other is that they are all going to Hebo Station to pay errands, and the third is that they may be returning to their hometowns to report that they are safe or to sell goods everywhere.
The whole family was very happy and took out all kinds of fishing gear. Fishing nets, shrimp pots and crab pots, and fishing rods.
"Brother-in-law, I've been raising these fish for ten days, and they are probably a lot bigger." There were two sets of fishing nets at home. Huo Erhuai had just cast one net into the river, and Yang Fu was eager to try it, and he also threw the other set of fishing nets.
Sprinkle.
"We will definitely catch a lot today." Yang stared closely at the river, looking forward to a good catch. Just like farmers look forward to a good harvest, fishermen also look forward to filling their nets with fish and shrimps.
Morning~ It’s the fishing ban season again. Sometimes I will take advantage of the cheap price to buy some shrimps and store them in the refrigerator, freeze them with water, and eat them after a while and they will still be fresh. Hahaha, I am a little expert in life~
