Zhou Lang quickly came out with the empty basket on his back. He covered his pockets with excitement on his face and bright eyes. He ignored Miss Fu Er who was standing opposite his sister and walked directly to Man Bao. He grinned and said, "Man Bao."
Bao, let’s go back!”
Miss Fu Er, who still wants to talk to Man Bao:...
Man Bao felt that they had finished talking, so he nodded and waved goodbye to Miss Fu Er.
Second Miss Fu could only say: "If you want to take a rest, remember to come to the county town to play with me."
Man Bao agreed, and walked out hand in hand with Zhou Lang.
Zhou Xi, Wu Lang and Liu Lang were waiting outside. They could see Man Bao all the time, so they were not too worried. When they saw the two approaching, they bowed to Miss Fu Er inside the door and turned around to leave.
After walking a long way, Zhou Lang looked around and took out the copper coins in his pocket when he saw no one. His eyes were bright: "The kitchen told me that our ginger is better than what is sold outside. Forty copper coins is not expensive at all."
, look, this is three hundred and twenty articles."
Half of them belonged to Zhou Xi. Zhou Lang counted out the money and gave it to her, but Man Bao and others looked at her eagerly.
Zhou Xi looked back in confusion.
Man Bao said: "Sister, I help you find all the customers."
Wu Lang immediately said: "Sister, I will help you when weeding."
Liu Lang: "I also helped when fertilizing, and we also helped plant the ginger together."
Zhou Lang on the side gave a good demonstration. He counted out forty coins from his own money, gave ten coins to Man Bao, ten coins to Lao Wu and Lao Liu, and gave the rest to himself, and then gave the rest to himself.
He put the money in the bag and said, "This is to pay off the debt."
Man Bao stared at the ten cents in his hand.
Zhoulang covered his pocket and said: "Manbao, you can't complain this time. I'm older than Wulang. He has money in his hands. How can I not have it?"
Man Bao spoke righteously: "Fifth brother doesn't know how to gamble."
Zhou Lang: "...I don't know how to do it now."
Man Bao reached out to him and said, "Give me the money and I will hold it for you. If you want to use it, ask me for it."
Zhoulang didn't want to give it, so Manbao threatened him, "If you don't give it to me, I'll tell my parents that you have money!"
With a look of sorrow and indignation, Zhou Lang took out the ten cents he had just put into his pocket and slapped it on Man Bao's little hand. Because ten cents was a lot of money and her hand was too small, a cent popped out at once.
Manbao picked it up and put all the money in his pocket. Then he patted it with satisfaction and looked at the eldest sister.
Zhou Xi:……
When you share money in front of her, does this mean she doesn't exist?
but……
Her younger brothers and sisters all looked at her, so Zhou Xi could only take out the money and share it with Zhou Lang. She didn't really want to give it to them, "You are all young, why do you need money?"
She felt that she should not have money until she got married, because she had lived like this since she was a child.
Wu Lang confidently said, "Get a wife!"
Saturday Lang: "Buying clothes!"
Manbao: "Buy meat!"
Zhou Lang said silently in his heart: I just want to touch it!
Zhou Xi dismissed them one by one, "My parents will pay for your wife. Liulang, didn't you just make a suit of clothes before the Chinese New Year? Manbao, you should save your money..."
Man Bao said: "Money cannot be saved, it must be spent. Only money that circulates can be called money. When it is not circulated, it is just a copper plate. Sister, will you give it to me or not?"
"Okay." Zhou Xi didn't understand a word anyway. She felt that what Man Bao said was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it. Sure enough, reading is good, and there is no point in arguing.
Zhou Xi sighed and gave ten coins to each of his three younger brothers and sisters.
Man Bao also asked her, "You can't tell your parents."
Zhou Xile, "You ask a lot, isn't that lying?"
"I didn't ask my eldest sister to lie. It's just that my parents won't ask, and you won't tell me. How could it be a lie if you don't tell me?"
Zhou Xi was speechless.
Looking at her younger brothers and sisters standing together, she knew they were in the same group and could only nod.
Wu Lang and Liu Lang were happy and left two pennies for themselves as pocket money. The rest were given to Man Bao to put away. They also told them, "write it down in the account book for us when you get back."
Man Bao patted his chest and said, "No problem."
Zhou Lang glanced enviously at the two cents in their hands, and said to Man Bao: "Man Bao, why don't you give me two cents as well, and just save eight cents?"
Man Bao thought about it and felt that he had to give him a candy if he was hit with a stick, so he took out two cents from his pocket and gave it to him, and warned: "Fourth brother, you can't gamble."
It's only two pennies. Even if he wants to gamble, someone must be willing to pay. Oh no, no, no, he doesn't want to gamble at all.
After Zhou Lang got the money, he became satisfied. He began to look curiously at the stalls on both sides, and said regretfully: "There are so many people today, we should dig more ginger."
Man Bao said: "What's the rush? Anyway, the busy farming season is over. You and Fifth Brother can carry the gingers on your back to sell them every day. Let them bury them underground for a while, and maybe they will grow longer."
Zhou Lang felt that what Man Bao said made sense, so he didn't feel bad anymore and looked around excitedly.
Because the busy farming season had just ended and it was the day to pay grain taxes, there were a lot of people coming and going in the county. There were also grain merchants from other places coming to collect grain, so the county was particularly lively.
Correspondingly, there were a lot of food sold on the streets. Zhou Lang wanted to eat everything he saw, but he had little money and was reluctant to spend it, so he encouraged Man Bao, "Yao Mei, look at that candied haws of apples, do they look good?"
Manbao swallowed and nodded.
Zhou Lang said: "Buy a bunch."
Zhou Xi was so angry that he slapped him on the head and said, "As an elder brother, buy a bunch for your sister."
Zhou Lang didn't say anything. In the end, Zhou Xi, who was wealthy but felt sorry for Man Bao, bought a bunch of candied haws. The hawthorns were so sour that Man Bao didn't want to eat them after one bite.
So the cheap Thursday Lang three brothers.
Man Bao thinks this thing just looks good and doesn't taste good at all.
Keke gave her some tips, "That's because the hawthorns here are wild and have greater acidity. In the future, the hawthorns will be improved and the sweetness will increase, so the candied haws will be quite delicious."
He added: "In addition to hawthorn, candied haws can also be made from apples and other fruits. I just checked and found that yam beans were used to make candied haws in history. It is said to be very delicious."
Manbao's eyes were bright and he asked: "How delicious is it?"
Keke thought for a while and picked out an adjective, "It is said that it is the most popular among the many fruits of candied haws, but it may be wrong, because the yam is cut off and there is no such thing. Human beings always like to give it some beautiful imagination."
Having said that, Manbao was still drooling and thinking, when the yam vines at home have yam beans, she will definitely ask her sister-in-law to make yam candied haws for her to eat.
