Hearing the sound coming from outside, Li Chengcheng looked up and saw Bai Dashan standing there, a little surprised, "Why are you here?"
"Are you still planning to stay in the cave tonight?" Bai Dashan walked into the cave, lit the candle on the firewood, then found a flat place and pressed the candle on it.
Li Chengcheng lowered his head to wrap the cherries and said nothing.
Bai Dashan took out another stack of change and handed it to Li Chengcheng, "I picked this up in the grass on the roadside. Is it yours?"
He can't say he took it back from his sister, right?
If she knew that the troublemaker Bai Shanshan was his sister, would she still pay attention to him in the future?
Li Chengcheng couldn't believe it, "Did you really pick it up?"
"Otherwise? You don't think it's my money, do you? It's all a penny. It shouldn't be easy for me to collect so many penny, right?" Bai Dashan raised his eyebrows.
Li Chengcheng looked carefully and saw that they were all one cent. When she sold mulberries at school in the morning, they cost one cent for a small package. Everyone bought them with one cent, "It's really mine."
?”
She took the money over in surprise and counted it carefully. The more she counted, the happier she became. "Forty cents, I made forty cents in one morning. That makes it twelve yuan in a month!"
Li Chengcheng was happy for a while, then frowned again, "I don't have anywhere to put it, could you please help me keep it for a while?"
Bai Dashan picked up the sixty cents he had put on the stone in the past two days and said to Li Chengcheng, "Come to my place now."
"Oh." Li Chengcheng responded, blew out the candles and the fire went out, then stood up and walked out with Bai Dashan.
As a result, after taking just a few steps, Bai Dashan turned around and returned to the cave, lifting both of her backpacks out.
Li Chengcheng didn't say anything else. She was homeless and would be the same wherever she went.
Arriving at the house at the foot of the mountain, Bai Dashan placed his backpack in the main room, and then went to the kitchen to bring Li Chengcheng a bowl of chicken and a bowl of chicken soup. Today's was not that hot, so he came directly with a bowl in one hand.
"This..." Li Chengcheng looked at him in surprise.
"This is what's left over from yesterday. I put it in the well water and chilled it. I just heated it up. You can try it to see if it has lost its flavor." Bai Dashan explained.
Li Chengcheng nodded, that's pretty much it.
Otherwise, she would feel bad about eating two old hens. Although old hens were not expensive at this time, costing only a few yuan each, they were something that most people couldn't afford. Even she couldn't afford it now.
, I estimate that I have to sell wild fruits for half a month before I can afford it.
Li Chengcheng picked up the chicken soup with both hands and took a sip carefully. "It doesn't taste bad. It tastes very delicious."
After drinking chicken soup, Bai Dashan took Li Chengcheng to see the room. Li Chengcheng was still a little nervous as he followed Bai Dashan. Although he said he had no other thoughts about her, he still couldn't help but feel a little scared!
After all, he looks like a young, strong and physically fit man.
Bai Dashan opened a wooden door and said to Li Chengcheng, "You can sleep here at night! And find a place to put your money as well. I won't enter this room."
With that said, he took out Li Chengcheng's forty cents and handed it to Li Chengcheng.
Li Chengcheng reached out and took the money, "Thank you."
"I'm leaving, please close the door." Bai Dashan said, turned around and went out. Li Chengcheng followed him out. After closing the courtyard door, he came back, picked up the candle in the main room, and went to the room to find a place to put the money.
The next morning, when it was slightly light, Li Chengcheng heard a knock on the door and hurriedly got up and ran out to open the door. He saw Bai Dashan standing outside the door pushing a tall bicycle with two large hemp bags tied to the back of the bicycle.
Li Chengcheng hurriedly opened both doors and let Bai Dashan push the bicycle in.
When Li Chengcheng was ready, the two of them prepared to set off. Bai Dashan pointed to the beam in front of him and motioned for Li Chengcheng to go up. Li Chengcheng was a little embarrassed for a moment, because that position was equivalent to sitting in Bai Dashan's arms.
"You must hurry up and leave, otherwise the villagers will see you and it will have a bad impact." Bai Dashan didn't give Li Chengcheng time to think at all. He directly reached out and grabbed her waist, lifted her up, and placed her on the bed in front of him.
on the crossbar, and then quickly left on the bicycle.
The leaves of the tall poplar trees on both sides rustled in the early summer morning breeze. Li Chengcheng, who was sitting in front of Bai Dashan, was blushing. She curled up, trying to minimize her presence and avoid touching Bai Dashan's arms.
and shoulders.
The morning breeze brought the girl's own fragrance. Bai Dashan lowered his head and noticed the red tips of her ears. He was in a good mood. It turned out that she was not indifferent to him!
Bai Dashan did not go to school, but to a residential area, because everyone here had to go to work and they all went to buy vegetables and food early.
After parking the bicycle, he took Li Chengcheng off the bicycle, locked the bicycle, and then found a place to put the things out.
Seeing many aunts and grandmothers with baskets on their arms, Li Chengcheng shouted hurriedly, "Don't miss it when you pass by. Freshly picked mulberries and cherries only cost one penny a pack. Sweet and sour mulberries and cherries."
, only a penny a packet..."
After a while of shouting, the aunts and grandmothers all came over. Who doesn’t have a few children these days, and who doesn’t want to spend a few cents to buy snacks for their children?
So within a short while, the stalls of Li Chengcheng and Bai Dashan were crowded with people.
The basket of mulberries and cherries that Li Chengcheng carried was sold out quickly. Li Chengcheng hid all the money at the bottom of the basket, and then put another basket on top. The two baskets were stacked on top of each other. No one knew that there was something hidden in the gap in the middle.
Where's the money!
When Bai Dashan opened his two sacks and saw the cherries inside, Li Chengcheng's face shattered to the ground. Unexpectedly, the person next to him turned out to be a rival to steal her business?
Bai Dashan whispered, "You help me pack it, and we will share the money we make in a while."
"Okay." Li Chengcheng readily agreed. This was pretty much it, otherwise she would have been really angry. She finally found a way to make money, but she didn't expect someone to rob her.
Bai Dashan's two sacks of cherries were sold for four yuan. When Bai Dashan really wanted to give Li Chengcheng half of it, Li Chengcheng was too embarrassed to accept it. "Look at the dark blue under your eyes, I know you stayed up late to pick them in the mountains."
, I don’t want your hard-earned money anymore.”
Bai Dashan took Li Chengcheng's hand and put two dollars in her hand, "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that these things could actually make money! Plus you've helped me pack it until now, and I'll share half of it with you.
That's right. The salary of a factory worker is only thirty or forty yuan a month, so I'm very satisfied with earning two yuan a day."
