Finally, Bai Banxia sewed two hairbands for Xiaocao, decorated with a circle of small roses, spaced in twos and threes, and tied them on her double bun, which was particularly cute and festive.
She also sewed three roses on Ma Xiaoyu's hairpin. The hairpin fixed the bun, and the roses were exposed, delicate and delicate.
"You three have been working hard for a long time?" the aunt asked in surprise.
Xiaocao smiled, showing her pearly white teeth, and shook her head cutely, "Yes, yes."
Because she was in a good mood, her personality became much more lively.
Ma Xiaoyu also blushed happily, "Auntie, does it look good?" She was so happy that she followed Bai Banxia and called her "Auntie."
"It's beautiful, it's so beautiful!" the aunt praised sincerely.
Ma Xiaoyu and Xiaocao both laughed, laughing very happily.
"When it's fifteen, let's go to the market together and I'll treat you to some candied haws." Bai Banxia took out the hair flower that her aunt made for her and put it on. She shook her head like Xiaocao and put it on.
Everyone laughed.
"Okay, I'll come to you early in the morning and help you push the cart." Ma Xiaoyu agreed, but she was thinking about how to sneak out then.
"It's so beautiful. Girls should be beautiful." The aunt said with emotion.
Bai Banxia smiled and took her arm, "I'll make a few more for you, my mother, and my sister-in-law."
"We won't need it once we get older." Mrs. Li smiled and waved her hand.
"Women love beauty all the time. If my aunt doesn't want it, grandma would be even embarrassed to wear it." Bai Banxia said jokingly.
At this time, Mrs. Li couldn't say anything, but the old lady listened in the room with her ears pricked up. Hey, she also means that, so she also wants the bright red one.
Early the next morning, Bai Banxia and his family went to run a stall. The people in the village they met said that the meat and vegetables delivered last night were so delicious that they would definitely succeed in business.
"Daughter, how about we add some fat sausages of deboned meat?" Bai Tian suggested with an idea, "Sell it with sesame cakes. Let's make them in advance and add a small stove to warm them?"
"Okay, okay, but washing the fat intestines is too tiring, and making pancakes is also difficult. I'm afraid you and mother will be too tired." Bai Banxia was a little worried. Running a food business is really tiring, so she thought of something simpler at first.
Chinese savior crepe.
Zhang Lingzhi patted his chest and said, "I'm not tired. I can make sesame cakes."
"When I wash my large intestine, it's like practicing Iron Sand Palm." Bai Tian said jokingly.
"It's still iron palm, so shouldn't you fry the chestnuts with your bare hands?" Bai Banxia couldn't help but say.
Qi Zhen, who followed him out again, spoke: "I'll help uncle make noodles."
"Isn't it all settled now?" Bai Tian laughed loudly and patted Qi Zhen on the shoulder, "Young man, do a good job and I will pay you wages."
"I live and eat for free so I should work without any wages." Qi Zhen added.
Bai Tian was even happier now, "As expected of one of my own, I saw you right."
Bai Banxia turned to look at Qi Zhen, and when he saw him smiling at her, he thought that Qi Zhen was quite smart too and knew how to talk.
But why does she think her father looks at Qi Zhen strangely?
Sure enough, after closing the stall and returning home, Bai Tian took her to the backyard and whispered, "Daughter, daddy wants Qi Zhen to adopt us into our house. What do you think?"
"Dad, are you over-acting?" Bai Banxia lowered his voice and said speechlessly, "Do you really think he is a distant relative? What if someone has a father and mother, and you take advantage of his amnesia to adopt his father?
Mom, can’t you fight to the death?”
Bai Tian slapped his head, "Aren't you worried about you and confused?"
"Why are you worried about me?" Bai Banxia asked puzzledly.
Bai Tian stared at his daughter. She didn't even look shy. He suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that her daughter hadn't realized what she was doing?
"Ahem, my dear daughter, have you ever thought about what kind of husband-in-law you will find in the future?" Bai Tian asked seriously.
"Why is it related to me again?" Bai Banxia was puzzled, "If you don't want to get married, it will affect my ability to make money. Isn't it good to make money?"
"It's nice to make money, but sooner or later you have to get married," Bai Tian said.
Bai Banxia tilted her head and thought for a while, "Maybe when I get rich in the future, it won't be impossible to recruit a son-in-law, so that you don't have to adopt a step-son."
Bai Tian was stunned when he heard this. When his daughter went back to the house to check Xiaocao's pulse, he didn't regain his composure.
In the next few days, Bai Banxia went to the blacksmith shop to modify the cart, added a small furnace, and bought a pot.
"Finally you bought a normal thing." The boss said with emotion.
Bai Banxia couldn't help but laugh, "My house will sell some new food on the 15th day. The boss is welcome to come and taste it."
"Okay, I must go." The boss has become a regular customer of Baijia Pancake Fruit. He doesn't say he eats it every day, but he has bought it several times.
In a blink of an eye, on the fifteenth day, the family packed up early to go out. Not only did they prepare twice as many ingredients today, they also added deboned pork sausages and sesame cakes.
The cart sank a lot now, and Qi Zhen took the initiative to shoulder the "heavy" burden of the cart.
His eyes are getting better again. Although his vision is blurry, he will never go astray.
Speaking of being a bit busy today, Bai Banxia also made an appointment with her aunt to meet her in the town, and also asked Ma Xiaoyu and Xiaocao to go to the market together.
In the past two days, Zhang Lingzhi asked Aunt Fang to help sew a new dress for Xiaocao, which she just happened to wear today. She also tied Xiaocao into a double bun and a red rose headband.
Xiaocao has been eating and raising well these days, her cheeks have grown slightly fleshy, and her complexion has become rosy. Coupled with her new clothes and a flower in her head, she looks like a little doll walking out of a New Year painting.
Bai Banxia also wore a floral dress made by her aunt, put on the headdress made by her aunt, and walked hand in hand with Xiaocao, just like a pair of biological sisters.
"Why hasn't Xiaoyu come yet?" She was a little worried and handed the grass to her mother. "You guys go over first. I'll call Xiaoyu and catch up."
"Okay, you have to hurry up. There are a lot of people today, and we can't stop them without you." Bai Tian said with a smile.
Bai Banxia stuck out her tongue and said, "Dad, you are too humble. Your eloquence is unstoppable. The storyteller is not as good as you."
"Hey, keep a low profile." Bai Tian laughed.
Bai Banxia went to Ma's house alone, knocked on the door and called Ma Xiaoyu. There were footsteps in the yard, and Ma Xiaoyu opened the door.
"Ban Xia, I'm sorry, I can't go." She turned sideways and lowered her head. You could tell that she was in a bad mood even without looking.
Bai Banxia pulled her over, and sure enough, the side of her face that she turned to was red and swollen.
"Who hit me?" The fire in her heart suddenly surged.
"I bumped into it accidentally." Ma Xiaoyu lowered her head and did not dare to look at her, "Go quickly, don't delay doing business."
Bai Banxia didn't leave, but pulled her and asked: "Where is the hair flower I gave you?"
"I didn't wear it because I was afraid it would get dirty." Ma Xiaoyu's voice was much lower, her eyes were slightly red, and she tried to hold back the tears.
Although Ma Xiaoyu didn't say it that day, Bai Banxia knew that it was Ma Xiaoyu's first hair flower. She didn't know how much she liked and cherished it. No need to look at it now, someone must have taken it away.
She shouted into the Ma family's yard: "Xiaoyu, give me back the flower head I lent you. I'm going to the cloth shop in town to deliver the goods today!"
