The shopkeeper at the tavern found him before they could even come to the door.

When the two of them arrived at the shop, Qin An was already writing the receipt.

Mao Xiaosui politely called out, "It's from the shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper also laughed immediately and praised, "This guy of yours is interesting."

Qin An wrote the receipt without looking up, Mao Xiaosui sat down on the single sofa, and Li Yunshan sat next to the shopkeeper.

Mao Xiaosui asked Qin An, "What are you writing about?"

The shopkeeper said with some embarrassment, "After thinking about what you said last time, I think twenty copper coins is very reasonable. After much thought, I still feel that I want to do this business with you, so I came here."

He originally wanted to wait for the other party to come to his door, and he was sure that the other party would come, but the business of the previously half-dead restaurant suddenly improved.

They were right about some things. Rabbit meat was indeed rare in the town, but drinkers were still willing to spend dozens of copper coins to buy a rabbit.

However, after waiting and waiting for no one to come, he had no choice but to shamelessly find someone again.

At first it was said that the boss was visiting relatives, but later he found out that the boss was back but did not come to discuss business, so he couldn't sit still and came again. Fortunately, the boss didn't shy away or make things difficult for him.

Qin An quickly drew up the receipt and handed it over. Li Yunshan took it over without picking up Mao Xiaosui and started to read it.

Mao Xiaosui could already recognize some words commonly used in writing, and she ignored some words she didn't recognize without a look. She read them carefully, then both parties pressed their fingerprints, and Mao Xiaosui drew a picture of an oven. Qin An ghostwrote the recipe.

After they finished, they exchanged a few false greetings and sent the person away before Mao Xiaosui asked Qin An, "What did you write on it? There is one sentence I didn't understand."

"I buy at least two hundred rabbits a month, don't you know?" Qin An gave her the account book, which recorded in detail the sales prices of rabbit skins and rabbit meat at the breeding farm.

Mao Xiaosui took it over, turned it over and threw it to him. He asked with some confusion, "He ordered more than the restaurant?"

"Because I told him that he can sell it outside. If there are more people going to the tavern to buy rabbits, maybe the wine business will be better."

Mao Xiaosui gave him a thumbs up, "I saw you right, you are a profiteer."

Qin An rolled his eyes.

Because that person came to the door on his own initiative, he probably paid this month's money first to show his sincerity. Mao Xiaosui threw one of the money to him and said, "Earn money well this year, otherwise you will not be able to eat."

Qin An curled his lips, put the money in his arms and leaned down on the sofa.

Li Yunshan went to the breeding farm, and Mao Xiaosui returned home. Heizi was the only one at home. After not seeing the two children, he went to the old lady's house next door to take a look.

The old lady was sitting by the stove sewing her own worn-out shoes. She had to poke at one spot several times because of her bad eyesight. The two children were eating a piece of cabbage core in their hands.

"Hurry up and sit down." The old lady smiled and wanted to get her a stool. Mao Xiaosui didn't let her get up. He held Li Ruyi in his arms and sat down.

Ask the old lady, "How are you doing this New Year?"

"Okay." The old lady smiled sincerely on her face, "You are all good people."

Mao Xiaosui also smiled and asked, "What do you think of Qin'an people?"

"He is a good boy." The old lady smiled even more when she talked about Qin An, saying that he helped carry water, clean the yard, and buy her shoes.

Mao Xiaosui glanced at the old lady's feet. The shoes were indeed new and very thick.

So she told her plan.

After hearing this, the old lady agreed without any hesitation and said with a smile, "It's not him who is troubling me, it's obviously me who is troubling him."

Mao Xiaosui originally wanted to talk about this matter. After saying that, she stood up and left. She did not call out to the two children and left them to talk to the old lady.

It was an hour after Li Yunshan came back. She pushed the torn roast rabbit meat to Li Yunshan and said to him, "Let's settle the matter of Ankang going to school in the past few days." Although Qin An and the others were teaching, But you still have to find a dedicated teacher to learn it.

"I know." Li Yunshan nodded.

All scholars are a bit arrogant. When the two of them came to the door with their things, the old master was reading. When Li Yunshan called someone politely at first, the old master ignored him. Li Ankang ran over directly. The old master only raised his eyes after hearing the movement. , looking straight at Li Ankang.

The process was not difficult. After coming out of the school, a few people went to buy books and pens.

Li Ankang was very resistant to getting up early to go to school tomorrow.

Mao Xiaosui told him while sewing a schoolbag for him, "Don't tell anyone about your failure to take the science test in the future, otherwise they will think you are not doing your job properly, and they will look down on you and bully you, do you understand?"

Li Ankang responded, his face still unhappy.

Li Ruyi asked her, "Can I stop writing?"

"It's pretty nice to think about it." Mao Xiaosui glanced at her sideways, "You don't want to learn even if you don't know all the words?"

Li Ruyi snorted. From the side, the pouting looks of the siblings looked quite good.

No matter how reluctant Li Ankang was, he still had to go to school. He followed Gao Zixing every morning. He was unhappy when he went and was still unhappy when he came back.

Mao Xiaosui didn't care about him, he still knew how to read and write, and his schedule was very tight.

When I got home before the sun set in the evening, Mao Xiaosui had just removed the outer layer of skin from the cabbage when Widow Qian opened the curtain and came in. She saw that she had been beaten again on the face.

Mao Xiaosui sympathized with him, but he didn't want to cause trouble because of other people's affairs.

Widow Qian came in and knelt down directly, "Please buy my daughters. When I save enough money, I will redeem them later. Please..."

Mao Xiaosui stared at her, with ten thousand horses galloping past in his mind.

"Please, please..."

Mao Xiaosui raised his hand to block her move to kowtow, and said impatiently, "Let's not talk about the money, are those people your husband's family? With all due respect, I don't look like a trustworthy person. If I really bought them , then will your mother-in-law's family cause trouble for us? Why should we cause unnecessary trouble for you?" And there are two children in her family, and she felt uncomfortable thinking about the look in the eyes of that family before.

"Besides." Mao Xiaosui shook his head, "Are you sure you won't be sold?"

"When I buy them, I only lose money and make no profit. Your situation is not uncommon. Is it possible that others come and kneel down to me and I have to be responsible for them? There are many rich people, but why should they care about your misfortune? Pay the bill?"

Widow Qian knelt and refused to get up, muttering "Please..."

Mao Xiaosui felt that she was mentally abnormal.

Widow Qian knelt until Li Yunshan came back, and frowned when she looked at her like this.

Mao Xiaosui was extremely irritable. Li Yunshan stared at Widow Qian as if she had lost her soul. After a while, he dragged her out and locked her outside the courtyard door, warning her, "Don't come here again."

After they finished eating, when Mao Xiaosui went out to take out the swill, he found that she was still there, and her face had lost all color from the cold.

Even if there was no snow on the road, it would be freezing to death even if you were sitting on the ground. Widow Qian acted like she was threatening to die. She immediately yelled angrily, "Why don't you show your dead look to those people?" What are you doing sitting in front of my house? Who owes you anything? You'd better freeze to death here, so you don't have to worry about the whereabouts of your two daughters."

"I see that it's not easy for you to endure it again and again as a woman with two children. You are used to pushing the envelope. We are all neighbors, but they are only neighbors. We have to be careful in our behavior. You don't know whose family is the richest in the town. ?Why don’t I see you kneeling down to beg?”

These words scolded many people in the alley. The old lady tremblingly walked over to help the widow, and persuaded her earnestly, "Why are you doing this? How can you force others to ask for money..."

Others also tried to persuade me, and someone said, "If you have money, please help me."

Mao Xiaosui immediately glared at the person, "Who do I know she is? What does it have to do with her? As for neighbors, you have been around longer than me. Are you kind-hearted? I'll lend you money, and you give it to her. Use other people's things to pack." What generosity.”

Others also blamed that person.

Mao Xiaosui snorted coldly, "Do you really think I'm some kind of soft persimmon? How dare you make fun of me? See if I can't get used to your bad habits. There's nothing you can do about it..."

After saying that, she blocked the yard and went back to the house. The people in the alley dispersed after giving Widow Qian a few words of advice.

Everyone lives peacefully in the past, and no one wants to get involved in such troublesome things.

Mao Xiaosui didn't even check to see if she had left. Anyway, he just wanted to open the door the next day and no one was dead.
