Chapter 40 Trouble
For dinner, I ate simple sweet potato brown rice porridge and stir-fried pig water, and washed the two children and sent them to bed.
Gu Chunzhu put the rabbit meat hanging under the eaves of the house into the house. It was peeled and dried from the three little rabbits brought back from the last county town before they were sold out. Without the care of the female rabbit, and it was cold in winter, Gu Chunzhu thought about killing and eating meat.
The meat of the little rabbit is very small, and when it is air-dried, it is like dried by a mouse. It is only dried under the eaves at the back of the house for fear of being misunderstood.
The Caibangzi brought back from the county seat were picked up after blanching and placed in a sealed crock pot filled with salt water. After Gu Chunzhu checked it, he went to see Su Wangqin, Brother Wang, it's getting late for sleep.
Well, I'll be here soon. He twitched his fingers in the stove, and put the strips by his hand. The back basket had already taken shape, and more than half of it was done.
Seeing that he was still writing, Gu Chunzhu went to sleep first.
The next morning, before they left, Gu Chunzhu had already seen the new back basket. The strips were very fine, the burrs were polished and smooth, and the straps of the back basket were also wide and thick and not too restrictive.
When she set off, at Gu Chunzhu's insistence, she carried a basket in the front and back. The two buckets together weighed thirty or forty pounds.
Halfway through, her steps were so heavy that she could barely move. When Su Wangqin saw it, he forcibly took a backpack.
His legs were not good, Gu Chunzhu walked beside him, his eyes were hot, thinking of his previous promise, inexplicably believed that this man could do it.
When they got to the town, Uncle Zheng still managed the position, but there were more and more people selling river prawns. Gu Chunzhu and Su Wangqin looked at each other and saw something was wrong in each other's eyes.
Chunzhu, why don't I go to the county seat! I'll take three buckets, and if I can't sell it, I'll bring it back to the restaurant in the town? Su Wangqin swept the street, and there were at least three or four stalls selling river prawns.
Gu Chunzhu was also worried. Yesterday, the restaurant in the town received a bucket of river shrimp before it could be sold. If it can't be sold, the cost will be lost. Then, be careful.
After he left, Gu Chunzhu set up the stall and shouted, Five cents a bowl for fresh river shrimp.
The thin man who was opposite him yesterday saw Su Wangqin walking away with three buckets of river prawns. He threw a contemptuous look at him, and started his shouting, Three cents per pound of river prawns!
In addition, there are people who sell river prawns for four cents a bowl, and four cents a pound. They all thought about the business of attracting customers. Gu Chunzhu couldn't help but want to lower the price. She was reminded by Uncle Zheng. Knowing that your goods are good for business is also real, and there is no need to cut prices.
Driven by the trend of price reduction, she can't make a difference of two cents for a bowl.
However, today's sales are really bad. Except for the old customers who come to buy directly, other customers have come to pick on it because it is too expensive, so they all go to other places.
Fortunately, there were few river prawns in other homes, and they all left when they were sold out. Gu Chunzhu didn't go home with half a bucket of river prawns left.
I happened to meet Luo Xinlan who was handing in embroidery and buying vegetables in the town, so she bought two buns and entrusted her to take them back to the children to eat, telling them that their parents were going home late today.
She was assured of selling river prawns in the town, and by the way, waiting for Su Wangqin's news, she bought a thick noodle steamed bun to eat at noon, and asked the aunt of the steamed bun shop for water.
Is little sister-in-law setting up a stall in the town now? Seeing that she bought two steamed buns today and asked someone to bring them back to the children, she said a few more words to her.
Gu Chunzhu still carried steamed buns in his mouth and took the basket over to sell it to his aunt, I sell river prawns in the town. You can make buns and mix some prawns to make your tongue fresh!
How can you eat steamed buns with a fresh tongue. The aunt smiled and looked out of the steamed bun shop.
Seeing that she was somewhat interested, Gu Chunzhu personally held the river prawns to show the aunt, and the river prawns jumped and splashed a lot of water.
Oh, it's so fresh, how can you sell it? Seeing that the shrimps were fresh, adding some shrimp meat to the filling really tasted a lot better, and the aunt was moved to buy it.
Five cents per bowl, aunt bought it and I'll fill it up for you. Gu Chunzhu ate the thick noodles in three or two mouthfuls, swallowed it with water, and started a business.
She brought out a bowl full of river prawns for the aunt, and the aunt also took a wooden bucket from the shop.
Unexpectedly, buying a steamed bun can still make a business, Gu Chunzhu was in a very good mood, and when he returned to the stall, Uncle Zheng also went home for dinner.
Many people in the village get up in the morning to eat and feed the animals, and they are already busy until noon. When they arrive at the town, it is already afternoon. In the afternoon, business is not as good as the morning, but it is not bad.
Gu Chun's half-bowl of river prawns in the bamboo bucket has gradually decreased for a penny, and only a few prawns are left swimming in the water. Before Su Wangqin came, another uninvited guest came first.
Why does a woman come to show her face to do business? It's a shame for your man. The man's thick leg was straddling Gu Chunzhu's wooden barrel, and he touched his nose in dissatisfaction, looking arrogant.
The man looked like he was looking for trouble, and Uncle Zheng next door was stunned, and he was even more stunned when Gu Chunzhu called out that brother.
Gu Chunzhu also helplessly looked at the man in front of him, Gu Chunyang, the elder brother of the original owner.
When I was a kid, the siblings had a good relationship. Under Hao's eccentricity, Gu Chunyang's studies are getting worse and worse.
Gu Chun
Gu Chunyang came up with the bad idea of Zhu marrying Su Wangqin, who has two children. Because the betrothal gift is 10 taels of silver, it must not be a good thing for such a person to come to the door.
Is something wrong? Want to buy shrimp? Gu Chunzhu pushed his feet away, and the smile on his face disappeared.
Gu Chunyang clapped his hands and didn't get angry, and said with a smile: I've made a lot of money selling shrimp, I also heard from the villagers that you set up a stall in the town. Anyway, please invite my brother to have some lunch and a small bar.
I'm busy. He wanted to invite him to drink, but there was no door. Gu Chunzhu defined him as a bad gambler and a bad alcoholic.
What are you busy with, I'll take the rest for you. Gu Chunyang took her hand, but Gu Chunzhu didn't believe he was so kind.
Sure enough, the next sentence was, You took back everything you gave to your mother the day before yesterday, and she said she won't let you go back to your mother's house. Give me the shrimp, and give me some money, and I will help you speak well.
If you don't go back, you won't go back. If you die, I won't give you a penny. Gu Chunzhu rolled her eyes, she has already changed a core, and even if the original owner is there, it may not be there. Pay more attention to the family members.
