Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law
Chapter 115 Going to the market to sell goods and gossiping in the village
Seeing that nothing happened at this moment, Liu Yu and the others said goodbye and went home.
On the way, he asked his uncle and his third uncle why he didn't see his three brothers. Only then did Liu Yu find out that it was dark today, so Liu Fan, Liu Yan and Liu Shan went to Shijian.
"I told you to call you, but the arrow was a little far away, so I left you to set up stalls in the town. It would be faster to sell scattered." Liu Maoye was afraid that Liu Yu would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained a few more words.
Of course Liu Yu knew this. This was because her eldest brother and the others were taking care of themselves. Liu Yu was not an ungrateful person. She shook her head at Liu Maoye and changed the topic.
"We need to buy some new furniture at home. Do you want Suona to hire a team? We need to have a plan for these trivial matters of the wedding banquet in advance, so as not to be in a hurry and not have everything at hand."
Liu Maolin had already held three wedding receptions and was quite familiar with these things, so he began to give some advice on Liu Yu's wedding banquet.
"I don't know this. Grandma asked me to take the time to clean my house yesterday and pick up everything in the yard. Come to your house later and we will discuss the details together."
The wedding banquet will only be held once, and Liu Yu doesn't want to be timid. He also has some money saved in his hand, so there is no problem in holding a general-sized one.
After deciding to come home to discuss the charter after dinner in the evening, Liu Yu returned home.
It was already late at this time, but fortunately Nian had already prepared the meal, and Liu Fusheng had also loaded the cart. After a hasty meal, he briefly explained He Dayong's situation.
Seeing Chang Sheng glance at her from time to time, Liu Yu whispered when the two elders were not paying attention: "I want to go out too!"
Changsheng looked at the car full of things, and there was no place to sit by himself, so he shook his head. He had better wait for the porcelain to be sold out before going out together. There was not much left, and he would probably be able to sell almost the same amount after a few more sales.
"Wait!"
Liu Yu took out two square rattan baskets from the woodshed and moved the porcelain from the cart to the rattan baskets one by one.
He made such a big movement that Nian and Liu Fusheng both came out.
"My eldest brother and my third aunt have all gone to Arrowhead today. It's boring for me to set up a stall in the town by myself. I have Changsheng and someone to talk to."
Liu Fusheng and Nian looked at each other, not bothering to expose the two of them. Nian went back to the house to get a small mattress and put it on the wheat straw on the cart, while Liu Yu loaded the two baskets on the other side of the cart.
Changsheng also sat firmly on the other side, and Fang put another small mattress on Changsheng's legs.
In order to make it easier for Changsheng to straighten his legs, Liu Yu put the basket with the money on his back and hung a bamboo plaque on the handlebar. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, Liu Yu and the second elder waved and pulled the car. Then he walked out of the fence gate.
"Wait!" Mrs. Nian hurriedly took out another bamboo stool from the kitchen, took out a hemp rope, tied it through the support leg of the bamboo stool, walked out of the courtyard and hung it on the other armrest of the cart.
"You can't stand for a long time until your immortal leg bones have grown. You should be careful when you take people to the market and don't bump into them."
"Hey! Grandma is still careful, I understand!" Liu Yu touched her nose and responded crisply.
When Changsheng, who was sitting in the car, heard what Nian said, he was heartbroken and felt a little embarrassed as if he was being treated like a child.
"Go!"
I went out late today, and when Liu Yu arrived, the place where the stall was set up yesterday was already occupied, so she had to find a new place to set up the stall.
He placed Changsheng on a bamboo stool he had brought, and then took out the drying sheets prepared by Nian and spread them out. The various porcelains were placed neatly one by one. Finally, he took out the money and put it into a large bamboo plaque for the convenience of passers-by. Pick.
Liu Yu cleared her throat and started selling.
"Porcelain plates, bowls, and plates that are beautiful and easy to use cost three yuan each, three yuan each!"
"If you have enough money, you can get two coins for one person, and two coins for one person!"
"........."
Soon, customers came forward to select porcelain and pay for their money.
"This little brother, how come your price is slightly more expensive than what others sell!"
The money bills in the bamboo plaque are arranged neatly. A woman and a husband are picking out their favorite cursive characters while looking for angles to bargain later.
"Aunts and uncles, this is not the first day we have set up a stall here. We sold it at this price yesterday, and there were so many people buying it!"
"You won't suffer a loss for two cents per set. Ordinary people engrave a set of ten sheets of paper, but ours requires five more. And these are all new cursive characters this year. You won't suffer a loss if you buy it. Post it on the door The windows on your head will be bright all year round!"
Several people weighed the thickness of the money in their hands. They knew that Liu Yu was not lying. After looking over it for a while, they were satisfied. The paper was really good and the color was bright. It should have been newly engraved this year. There were many patterns. It was a happy and blessed thing to put on the door. .
"We bought a lot, so you can give us a cheaper price. There are a lot of people in our village who haven't bought anything yet. I'll bring them to you when I get home." A woman with a cheerful look didn't give up and went around with Liu Yu about the price!
"It's really not possible. Our carving hands are all blistered. It's really not making any money!"
Liu Yu kept in mind the third brother's instructions and never allowed customers to bargain down the price easily. The longer they waited, the happier the customers would be with the purchase, and they would feel that they had taken advantage.
When another wave of guests came, Liu Yu couldn't greet them in time, so she said helplessly: "Then three sets will cost five cents. If we get any cheaper, we will lose money."
Regardless of whether they came first or last, they were quite satisfied when they heard the price. There were not many doors and windows in any house, and women and husbands bought as few as three sets and as many as six sets.
After handing over the money and holding the selected bright money, everyone smiled happily.
"How do you sell this porcelain bowl?" A woman who came later asked casually.
"No matter the color or appearance, they all cost three cents each, just one. These are all defective products. Once you've picked them out and paid for them, you can exchange them, but you can't retreat!"
Liu Yu took a soup bowl with a netted surface and said to the interested guests.
A coarse porcelain bowl costs one penny, and a soup basin costs two pence. This kind of light and transparent porcelain only costs three pence. Although it is a defective product, if it were not a flaw, where could they buy it at this price? There is no rim on the bowl or plate. If you bump into something, you can always find something satisfying if you avoid this.
Changsheng sat on the bamboo stool, looking at Liu Yu with stars in his eyes. He had talked little since he was a child. Before he was sold, Shui Sanmei often called him a mute. As time went by, he became even more mute.
I often feel shy to say hello to people I meet, and I feel full of envy when I see fellow Changsheng people talking about prices and introducing things.
After seeing off a group of people, Liu Yu's throat was a little dry as she spoke, and she put the coins into her purse. When she turned around, she saw Chang Sheng staring at her with shining eyes, and couldn't help but smile.
"You look at the stall first, and I'll buy two bowls of float tea."
A few houses away there was a floating tea stall. Liu Yu grabbed a few coins, put the money bag into Changsheng's hand, turned around and walked away quickly.
Just at this time, several old ladies and old men came together, touched the porcelain on the ground, and looked through the money in the bamboo plaque. They nodded and looked at each other, and then asked Changsheng about the price.
The last time I interacted with people was when I was selling shortbread at a stall at the entrance of the kiln. Changsheng was a little nervous when he was stared at by these people. He took a deep breath and saw that these people had kind faces and no signs of impatience or displeasure. Slowly relaxing, thinking about what Liu Yu had just shouted, he opened his mouth to explain the prices one by one.
His smile was a little stiff, and he was trembling a little when he listened carefully to his voice.
When Liu Yu came back with two bowls of floating tea, he heard fellow Changsheng people saying, "This is the lowest price. If it's any cheaper, we'll lose money."
Passing a bowl of float tea to Changsheng and letting him warm his hands, Liu Yu said warmly: "Are you okay? It's you who comes if I come."
The hot tea in his hand relaxed his tense mood. Seeing Liu Yu's gentle eyebrows looking at him with concern, Chang Sheng suddenly felt no longer afraid.
"Let me do it!"
Changsheng's eyebrows relaxed, his voice became calmer, and he smiled at several old ladies and gentlemen, his expression was gentle and handsome.
"Grandpas and grandmas, you won't lose money if you buy these things from our house. You can buy them elsewhere. Such good things cannot be bought at this price..."
The sales of things went smoothly today. More than half of the porcelain in the two rattan baskets was sold, and there was not much money left. When the two drove back, they were both in a good mood and exchanged some experiences with each other.
After crossing the Qingshi Bridge, I saw the women and husbands in the village gathering together and talking about something, and the older ones were talking about ancient times.
"Are these two people incompatible? Seeing that the end of the day is coming, this happened!"
"Yes! According to Liansheng's mother, her cousin is actually more seriously ill than He Da. I heard that the family has prepared a coffin!"
"What, the coffin is ready. Brother Xian looks like a flower and a willow, how can he have such a hard life!"
"Don't dare to talk nonsense. Be careful when the big family hears this and give you a slap in the face. Not only the Xie family has fallen ill. He Dayong hasn't made any money yet. Maybe it's because of the Xie family's fate!"
The person who spoke first did not dare to choke after being greeted for a while. He laughed sarcastically and said, "Who can say otherwise? I heard that the man from the Xie family is a hunter. He can kill a lot of people on his hands. He Dayong can't say for sure. I’m really hurt by the Xie family.”
Then an old woman answered and talked about what she had heard when she was young: the pig butcher in a certain village killed too many people and made her old age miserable.
When everyone heard this, the original three-point letter was now increased to seven points.
"Grandma, grandma, aunts and uncles have all had lunch!" Liu Yu pushed the cart past the entrance of the village and stopped to say hello.
"No, I ate my morning meal late and made my lunch later."
After saying that, he asked about Liu Yu's business.
"But in that case, it would be nice to get back the money." Liu Yu laughed and brought the topic back to the He family.
"Aunts, do you know when the auspicious day has been changed to?"
"But I don't know that Brother Xian went to the temple to ask the master to do the horoscopes, and he hasn't come back yet!"
"The aunts just said that the Xie family's coffins are ready, but it's true!" Liu Yu frowned, feeling that this matter was indescribably strange.
"My wife, Liansheng, has not yet arrived at Gouziling. On the way, she met an old man from the Xie family who also came to report to us. It seems that she heard what he said. In these nine twelfth lunar months, if she is not really seriously ill, who would be talking about it in vain? This unlucky thing curses my family."
Liu Yu thought about it, Xu Zhen had a bad time when they first got together, and they might bump into something.
Thinking that the purse that the third brother gave to her was still at home, Liu Yu felt sad. The third brother asked her to return it to He Xian, but there was no good time.
Saying goodbye to the bunch of idle people at the entrance of the village waiting for Ren's fortune-telling to come back, Liu Yu pushed the cart home.
I thought that Brother Xian would only talk about this matter three to five days ago, but I didn't expect that the matter would come to an end in just one lunch.
