The happy little days of the Ye family

After attracting the bees, the bees on the mountain no longer need to be taken care of, and Ye's father becomes the Ye salesman again.

In addition to the usual groceries, Father Ye sells iron products customized by Blacksmith Fang and wooden toys and hairpins made by Uncle Tang.

Father Ye has not been selling goods for several days. The nearby villages are short of a lot of things. He only went to three villages and half of the items on the donkey cart were sold.

The fastest-selling items were the iron products custom-made by Fang Blacksmith, especially the sickles, which were sold out in the first village.

The headbands and headbands made by Ye Qingqing and Mrs. Ye sold quickly before, but today they cannot be sold.

None of the wooden toys and hairpins made by Uncle Tang were sold, but the wooden barrels and basins collected before were sold out.

The summer harvest was coming soon, and many people in the two villages behind asked Ye's father if he had any sickles. Ye's father was going to order another batch of sickles from Blacksmith Fang.

Father Ye drove the donkey cart to Fujia Village and went to Blacksmith Fang's blacksmith shop.

Father Ye entered the blacksmith shop, and there happened to be two people looking for blacksmith Fang to make sickles.

After the two left, Father Ye and Fang Tie said that they wanted to order 35 sickles.

Blacksmith Fang said expressionlessly that he could make 35 sickles for Ye's father, but he wanted Ye's father to promise not to sell iron products in the three villages of Fujia Village, Yangjia Village and Youxia Village.

These three villages are Blacksmith Fang's main source of customers, and the prices of the goods given to Ye's father are low. Blacksmith Fang is not happy that Ye's father comes to compete with him for business.

Father Ye wanted to order iron products from Blacksmith Fang, but he was too embarrassed to compete with him for business in front of his house. Father Ye agreed to this request without any pressure.

Blacksmith Fang registered it in the registration book, then went into the house and took out 20 sickles.

"It will be summer harvest soon. I have made these in advance these days. You can take them first. There are also 15 sickles for you to come and get in a few days. The price is still the same as before, and I will give you a half-percent profit."

"Okay, here's the money for 20 scythes and the deposit for the remaining 15 scythes."

After setting the sickle, Father Ye drove the donkey cart to the big banyan tree at the entrance of Fujia Village.

As soon as Father Ye got off the donkey cart, the elder sisters and aunts who were chatting under the banyan tree gathered around him.

"Mr. Ye, I haven't been here for a long time. Do you have anything new this time?"

"Do you still have the colorful bow-tie headbands you brought here for sale last time? Get me a pair. I didn't get them last time, and the little girl lost her temper."

Father Ye moved the things off the donkey cart quickly.

The big banyan tree was on the edge of the village. After Ye's father had moved the things, there were already many women and children surrounding the stall.

"This purple linen is good. Give me 12 feet."

"These candy bars are so beautiful. They are shaped like various animals. Mom, I want these two pieces."

"This wooden hairpin is well polished. How much does it cost?"

"Does this hair oil have any other flavor besides the osmanthus scent?"

In just a quarter of an hour, a lot of brightly colored linen, colorful headbands and hairbands, and rouge and gouache for women's dressing were sold.

The wooden toys and wooden hairpins made by Uncle Tang also sold two pieces each.

A young man came to Ye's father with a blushing face and asked him if he had anything suitable for the woman he admired.

Father Ye recognized this man at a glance. He had just bought some rouge and gouache from him a few days ago. He came back to buy something a few days later. He probably made good progress.

Father Ye smiled so much that he recommended facial grease and a colorful headband with small flowers.

He also uses his identity as a past person to teach the man where to send things and how to express his feelings to the girl.

The shy young man, so shy that his neck turned red, lowered his head and listened humbly.

"If it happens, remember to treat me to a wedding banquet." Father Ye said with a smile.

"it is good."

The man responded in a low voice with a blushing face, took the things and ran away.

Not long after, another young couple came, and the husband was the man who bought a lot of things to coax his wife last time.

The couple were both wearing fine linen clothes and had no patches on their bodies. They were probably from a wealthy family and were willing to spend money.

Father Ye quickly took out a few colorful silk hairbands. These were newly developed by Mrs. Ye. They were light, soft, and beautiful in color. They made you look like a fairy when you put them on, but they were a bit expensive, costing 15 cents each.

The young lady liked it very much. She kept gesturing with the hairbands and finally picked two.

Then Father Ye brought out a box of hand cream and two soaps.

"This hand cream is very effective. My wife is an embroiderer and she uses this hand cream on her hands every day. You can try it."

"And this soap is new in the county. It has the scent of osmanthus and rose. It can be used to wash your face and moisturize your skin. All the ladies in the county use this."

When the young lady heard that all the ladies in the county liked to use this soap, she felt happy and happily took the soap.

She likes both smells very much. She smells the left one and the right one. She really can't choose which one she wants.

The man on the side said dotingly: "If you all like it, then I'll take both. I also want a box of the hand cream I just mentioned."

"Will you buy too much?"

The soap and hand cream were definitely not cheap, and the woman didn't want to buy so much, but the man's words made her very happy.

The man didn't say anything and just paid the money.

The man took the things, hugged his little wife and walked away affectionately.

Father Ye was also thinking about Mother Ye at this time, thinking about buying a pair of silver earrings for Mother Ye next time he went to the county, and also buying a pair for Mrs. Ye and Ye Qingqing.

Every time Father Ye sends something to Mother Ye, he never forgets to buy one for Mrs. Ye. Father Ye plays a major role in the way the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can get along like mother and daughter.

The sun slowly set from mid-air to the top of the mountain, and there were fewer and fewer people at the stall. Father Ye simply closed the stall when he saw that there were no more people.

When I was getting ready to leave, I remembered the big fish stewed with dried tofu I had last time. There was still dried tofu, but the big fish was missing.

Fortunately, there were people under the banyan tree. Father Ye quickly found out that he went straight to the west and arrived at the Luo River in about a quarter of an hour. There were people fishing there every day, and there were also many people fishing there.

Luohe River is a big river with a width of more than 20 meters. At this time, there were two boats, one large and one small, fishing with nets on the river.

There were some wealthy boys from the city fishing by the river. Father Ye looked into the bucket and saw that there were only two or three small fish, probably just here for fun.

There were a few old men fishing in the distance, and these seemed to be more reliable. When I got closer, I saw that each of them had at least one or two big fish in their bucket.

Ye's father immediately noticed the big grass carp in the bucket on the edge, which was estimated to weigh 7 or 8 kilograms.

The old man was very happy when he heard that someone was buying his fish. People in the village are tired of eating fish, so fishing is just to pass the time, but they didn't expect to make money.

The old man was not short of money either. He only paid 30 yuan for a big grass carp weighing more than seven kilograms, and gave a few crucian carp in the bucket to Father Ye.

Several old men on the side were very excited when they saw the old man selling fish, and asked Father Ye if he wanted more fish.

Father Ye saw that the weather had been good recently, the drying of fish was good, and the fish meat was cheap, so he simply collected all the big fish.

The old men happily took the money and gave the remaining small fish to Father Ye.

Father Ye collected 11 large grass carp in one go, and also got a small bucket of small miscellaneous fish and a few crucian carp for free.
