"Chestnuts are good for strengthening the spleen and stomach, strengthening muscles and bones, and are suitable for the elderly and pregnant women." Bai Ling shouted loudly: "Don't miss it if you are passing by. It only costs 20 cents per pound. The whole family can eat it as snacks, and also as snacks.
Hungry……"
"Second girl, it's not as good as what you said. It's not a lie." Bai Sanshu quietly pulled Bai Ling's sleeve, looking a little anxious.
"Dad, I'm not telling lies. This thing is really good. I gave it to Dr. Chen and he said so." Bai Ling made some nonsense and said to himself: There are more benefits, but I don't even dare to
Say it's good to cut it down.
When Bai Sanshu heard this, he remained silent.
Bai Ling shouted a few more times, and more and more people were watching. From the smell, many people wanted to buy it, but they were afraid that it would not taste good at 20 cents per pound and would be a waste of money.
"These chestnuts are a new thing. Aunts and ladies, try one first. If it tastes good, you can buy it. If it doesn't taste good, you don't need to pay." Bai Ling took a small basket made by Bai Sanshu, filled it with some chestnuts, and distributed them one by one.
Onlookers.
"Girl, you don't sell fish but this thing instead? Then I want to try it. Once it tastes good, I will come to your place every day." The lady who was looking for trouble for Bai Ling before asked with a smile.
Said: "How do you eat this thing?"
"Auntie, you see there is a hole here. You can open it by pinching it." Bai Ling demonstrated to everyone, peeling a chestnut and putting it in his mouth to chew.
After the onlookers tasted it one after another, the aunt took the lead and weighed two catties, and the others also bought one and a half catties.
People who have spare money want to try new things, so they naturally spend a little money.
"This chestnut has many benefits. When taking it as a snack, please be careful not to eat it after meals, as it can easily accumulate food. Also, pregnant women and people with constipation should not eat it." Bai Ling helped collect the money and shouted the precautions loudly, "But there are
People with edema, especially those who are older and prone to illness, can eat some regularly..."
Mrs. Bai Liu originally felt sorry for Bai Ling for sending so many chestnuts, but suddenly she was too busy, frying pots of chestnuts and couldn't spare any time.
Because it was just a trial sale, I only brought two bags of chestnuts, and they were all sold out quickly.
Bai Sanshu and Bai Liu wanted to make money, so they decided to sell their food at the entrance of the market and come every market day.
Bai Ling didn't want the couple to have to work so hard, but when he saw the smiles on their faces, he didn't stop him.
When I got home in the evening, the family sat together and counted the coins, and they actually sold nearly two thousand coins.
"Oh my god, I made almost two taels of silver this day!" Bai Liu was so surprised that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
"Now it's because the sugar-roasted chestnuts are fresh, so I can make more money this month. From now on, I can sell them for a few hundred cents a day." Bai Ling was afraid that the Bailiu family wouldn't be able to accept the gap in the future, so he spoke up.
"That's quite a lot. This thing doesn't cost much. Three hundred pence for sugar and oil will last you forever. Today I've made one or two and a half pence." Ms. Bai Liu was still very happy.
Seeing this, Bai Weinu said: "When the village chief's family has finished the wedding, everyone in the village will know that chestnuts can be sold for money, and it will no longer be a business without capital."
"Our family worked early and late to pick chestnuts, then brought them back from the mountains, and then peeled them apart one by one. It took a lot of effort. We don't expect to make a fortune selling chestnuts in the future, so it would be nice to make a little difference."
Bai Ling comforted him.
"Yes, your mother and I are idle. We can earn dozens of coins a day, which is enough for our family to eat meat every day. It's better than working idle all winter." Bai Sanshu said contentedly.
Bai Wei looked at the family's contented expressions speechlessly, feeling a little tight in her chest.
Bai Ling smiled faintly. This was the reason why she liked this family in the first place. They knew how to be content and happy.
Bai Sanshu and his wife went to sell sugar-roasted chestnuts every day. Bai Ling went to help when he went to town, or went to the mountains with Chu Wen to dig herbs. Bai Wei was responsible for looking after the winter vegetables and taking care of his two younger brothers and sisters.
In early October, Bai Ling ushered in the first snow after traveling through time, and also attended her first wedding.
The conditions of the village chief's family are good. The village chief's youngest daughter marries his classmate's youngest son, so they are well matched, so the banquet is naturally quite lively.
The bride was picked up early in the morning. Mrs. Bai Wan was reluctant to leave her daughter, but she still had to greet the guests with red eyes.
According to the rules of Qianshan Village, when a family has a happy event, it is the head of the family who takes care of the family, but there are not many people involved in rituals. This is also a blessing.
The third bedroom has been separated, so naturally the whole family is going to have a wedding banquet.
However, the men and women were seated at separate tables. The men were drinking and chatting nonsense, while the women were mostly with their children. They were swept away as soon as the banquet came, and those with slow hands could not even take a bite.
"Ms. Liu, why don't you eat?" the fat aunt asked with her mouth dripping with saliva. As she spoke, spittle flew all over the table.
"I'm eating." Bai Liu replied awkwardly.
"You snatched it so fast, we have to have a chance to eat it." Bai Wei rolled her eyes, looking down on the style of Fat Aunt and Chen Huang's family.
"Do you know how to talk? You look like you are unlucky at first sight! Wedding wine is just for the sake of happiness. It's natural for a spicy guy like you, who no one wants, not to be able to grab." Chen Huang took the fat in the bowl.
He pulled the meat strips into his mouth and spoke without leaving a trace of his words.
Bai Wei was so angry that she wanted to slam the table, but Bai Ling grabbed her hand and whispered: "Today is a happy day for the village chief's family. Don't lose your temper. The host's face will not look good then."
"Humph!" Bai Wei glared at Chen Huang, shook off Bai Ling's hand, and sulked.
"Look, as I said, you are really unlucky." Chen Huang raised her arm and wiped the fat from the corner of her mouth.
Bai Ling, who didn't want to cause trouble, smiled lightly and said: "Auntie, I am lucky, and the girls I have trained are also good at grabbing luck. I just don't know if the Zhang family has come to propose marriage?"
Chen Huang's face turned dark, while Chen Jing, who was sitting next to her, turned pale.
Although Sanfang is a bit far from the village, you can still meet the little village girls digging wild vegetables and hunting pigweed, and you can certainly hear some gossip.
The Chen family wanted to marry Chen Jing to Zhang Wangcai, but the Zhang family thought they had become prosperous in recent years and did not look down on the Chen family at all. Chen Huang even went to the Zhang family to make trouble for this.
But in the end, the Zhang family refused to admit their fault, and Chen Jing's reputation in the village was ruined. It would be difficult for her to marry into a good family in the future.
"You damn girl, if you can't speak, shut up, or I'll tear your mouth apart!" Chen Huang stood up as soon as she clapped her chopsticks, rolled up her sleeves, and was about to hit someone.
"Mr. Chen Huang, why don't you go out if you don't want to sit down? Why are you making a fuss in my house? It's embarrassing for us, isn't it?" Bai Wanshi was talking to the people at the next table. When she heard the movement at this table, she paid attention and could not make a sound.
"It's this dead girl..." Chen Huang pointed at Bai Ling and was about to curse, but was stopped by Bai Wanshi.
"Today is my old daughter's wedding, do you dare to say that word again? Believe it or not, I will beat you out!" Bai Wanshi shouted angrily.
Although Chen Huang was arrogant, she did not dare to offend the village chief's family. When she realized that she had said something unlucky, she could only sit down dejectedly and looked at Bai Ling with a sinister look in her eyes.
Bai Liu's body trembled, and she felt a little relieved after pulling Bai Ling's hand.
"Huh, some people just can't find it easy. They only eat meat at home, and they look down on the host's banquet and cause trouble. They really think that having a few bad money will be a big deal." Old Mrs. Bai snorted, and it happened to be them.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting on the other side of Bai Ling's house.
Bai Ling lowered his eyes speechlessly, too lazy to answer. (To be continued)
