Lie Lie Sheng

Chapter 14 [14]

Duan Sheng shared a bed with Uncle Grandpa at night, and Yang Shi shared a bed with Zhang Shi. During the day, Uncle Yang was persuaded by Duan Sheng's live gravel performance, so he stopped doing coolies and discussed knowledge with Father Yang at home. , Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Yang used the newly bought fabrics to make clothes. At this time, Sheng realized that her mother's craftsmanship was very good.Duan Sheng became the only idler, and he didn't know anything about it, let alone making clothes. He could only use his vitality to help his grandpa's meridians in his legs when he was asleep at night. Big set day.

On the morning of Daji, Duan Sheng and his uncle first went to the place where the cattle were sold. Duan Sheng planned to buy a cow so that he wouldn’t have to rent it from other people’s houses. Someone said something, Duan Sheng looked at his uncle watching the cow, and smacked his lips aside, "Well, so it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books! Scholar can also understand cows."

In the end, Yang Zonglin took a fancy to a heifer. Although it was a bit small in size, it was very strong, mainly because it was very docile. It was cheaper than a mature cow and a little more expensive than an old cow. The price was moderate. Duan Sheng also thought it was good. Six taels, the bullock cart bought a new one, it cost more than one tael, the bullock cart actually sells old ones for less than one tael, but Duan Sheng didn't like to use other people's used things, so he bought a new one.

With the ox cart, the next step is the big purchases, such as bowls, chopsticks, pans, kettles and cutting boards, and other wooden products such as cabinets and tables. It takes up space, so Duan Sheng asked the master to do it slowly, and come to pick it up after the house is built.Oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, all kinds of dried vegetables, and beans have bought a lot. Duan Sheng likes to eat rice, so rice is the main food, and rice is divided into sub-levels. Uncle Yang is stunned, ten stone rice!I thought my nephew was going to save winter food in advance?In fact, there are two reasons for Duan Sheng, one is that Duan Sheng can eat very well, and the second is that it also includes a portion for the Yang family.

Duan Sheng has two bags of cotton for making cotton clothes in winter.I bought four sets of quilts, which are thicker and more comfortable when the weather is cold, and a little more warm!I didn't buy clothes, I only bought fabrics and needlework. If Yang could not be free at home, he would make clothes. I heard that making shoes hurts hands, so Duan Sheng bought ready-made shoes.

Duan Sheng also bought a silver hairpin for his mother and grandma. Mother Yang’s is a butterfly love flower, and grandma’s is a longevity hairpin. Duan Sheng looked at the jade hairpin on the side and thought that some men also use hairpins to tie hairpins. So he bought a hosta for Grandpa and Uncle each. Although the quality of the jade is ordinary, the style is elegant.

I went to the Brush and Ink Studio again and bought three sets of medium-quality pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Among them, paper was the most expensive, so I bought a lot. Reading really cost a lot, but these Duan Sheng only cost 13 taels, and the three-square inkstones cost nine taels. , Three rabbit brushes cost more than two taels, and three ink sticks cost more than one tael.Duan Sheng is quick to spend money and has great strength, Yang Zonglin can't stop it at all.

"Uncle, don't worry about it. Grandpa, Grandma, and you are Duan Sheng's elders. It is right to show respect to you. If you earn money, you spend it. Uncle has to believe in your nephew's ability, and you will definitely earn more than you spend!" Even though he has already spent 40 taels of silver one after another, Duan Sheng doesn't care. Life is for enjoyment. When there are no conditions, there is nothing you can do. Since you have the conditions to enjoy, why bother?

Yang Zonglin saw that he was really sincere, and now he also understood a little bit about his nephew's temperament, casual and generous, if he pushes back too much, it would not be beautiful. "Then uncle will thank my nephew."

The two continued shopping, and Duan Sheng bought more than 300 small white porcelain bottles from the merchants, about the length of a finger, easy to carry. These small porcelain bottles are used to contain the extracted plant essence, and they are also sold in the town, but the quantity is too small , and it is too noticeable. Although Duan Sheng can store it with dry branches and leaves, the energy is easily volatilized by this method, and the gain is not worth the loss. In fact, the jade bottle is better, but he still cannot afford the cost now.

Before going back, Duan Sheng went to the blacksmith's shop to pick up the things he ordered a few days ago, such as pots, kitchen knives, hoes, sickles, etc., which are commonly used at home, as well as daggers and cooking knives, which he often uses when he goes up the mountain. It seems that the work is not bad, and Duan Sheng is satisfied. paid the money.

Duan Sheng unloaded some rice grains for the Yang family, and after saying goodbye to grandparents and uncles, the mother and son returned to Dashan Village with a cart full of things.

Yang Dawen's legs have improved a lot after these few days of cultivation, and he can barely go to the ground, and the pain is not as severe as before. Duan Sheng mother and son are about to leave, but he insists on getting up to see them off. Looking at the things Duan Sheng gave them, hairpins, pens and inks, dried vegetable noodles and rice, four stones worth of rice, my heart felt as warm as drinking a cup of hot water on a cold day, and I was also happy for my daughter, Duan Sheng has the ability Well, mothers are finally rewarded with all their hardships, and even they are also touched.

Duan Sheng's mother and son's return to the village caused quite a stir, and after a while, word spread throughout the village that the evil star mother and son who were kicked out of the Duan family got rich and came back with a cart full of things. People gloated and laughed, and the old Duan family didn't know if they would regret it?And the old Duan's family is more like an evil star. At the beginning, the mother and child were inseparable. Now that they have just left the Duan family, life will be easier immediately. The evil star is the Duan family!

And some people turn their eyes, and their wrong thoughts come out, just a mother and child, the weak one is weak, and the little one is small, and it’s hard to say whether things can be kept or not!

Zhang Dashan heard about the Duan family two days ago, and has been squatting around Duan Sheng's hut for the past two days. Sensing Zhang Dashan, they didn't point it out. The few people following the mother and son saw the residence of Duan Sheng's mother and son, and then slowly dispersed. Only at this time did Sheng make a sound.

"Uncle Dashan, come out."

"Shengzi, how do you know I'm here?"

"Ah, I saw it!"

Zhang Dashan scratched his head in embarrassment, and secretly glanced at Yang Shi.

Mrs. Yang is not stupid. She can vaguely feel Zhang Dashan's thoughts on her. She was overwhelmed by the Duan family before and didn't have the energy to think about it. face, bewildered

"Mother, spread out the quilt, I'll move things, and Uncle Dashan will help!"

Seeing her son helping her out of the siege, Yang hurriedly tidied up the house.

Dashan and Zhang Dashan were chatting while unloading things. Both of them had great strength, and the work was finished soon.

"Can Uncle Dashan build a stove? Help me build a stove with stones."

"I will do it, don't worry, it's very simple."

Duan Sheng was helping at the side, seeing Mrs. Yang in the room, then whispered, "Uncle Dashan, do you still dare to marry my mother?"

"Dare, why don't you dare?" Zhang Dashan stared.

"Our mother and child both carry evil spirits, aren't you afraid?"

"I don't believe in that. Besides, I'm also a wife killer. Are you afraid? I just know that I like your mother. I have liked your mother for many years. I didn't have a chance before, but now I have a chance again. Shengzi, should you not?" Yes?" Zhang Dashan stopped what he was doing, looked at Duan Sheng seriously and waited for his answer.

"Should I not count? My mother will only count when she agrees. I see what my mother means in this matter, and it is not suitable for my mother to marry you right now. You have just left the Duan family. If you marry, it will inevitably be difficult." Being criticized by others, my mother suffered too much in the past, I hope she will live comfortably in the days to come." Duan Sheng was also very serious.

"I understand what you're saying, I'm willing to wait!" Zhang Dashan resumed his work.

"I hope you will do what you said, but I will remember it." Duan Sheng took out the small porcelain bottle he bought, stuffed a lot into his belt, picked up a dagger and stuck it in his waist, and held a stone gun in his hand "Mom, I'll go Hunting a pheasant and a rabbit for extra food, you stay at home, you have heavy work for Uncle Dashan to do, if you are idle and bored, you can make clothes, I bought a lot of fabrics, from now on we will wear new clothes every day! I am leaving."

"Go, be careful, remember to come back early!" Yang Shi hurried out, and told Duan Sheng who was already walking away, seeing Zhang Dashan who was busy, Yang Shi pursed her lips in embarrassment, and hurried back into the room .

At this time, in the Yang family, Mrs. Zhang was flipping through the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that Duan Sheng bought today, and suddenly there was a suppressed exclamation. The Yang family father and son hurried forward and asked, "What's wrong, this is?"

It turned out that the bamboo box containing the pen, ink, paper and inkstone was stuffed with an ingot of ten taels of silver. Yang Zonglin came back to his senses, "Sheng'er must have put it in, only that kid would do that."
