Chapter 53 screw things up
Poof!
Brother Tang laughed again.
He laughed until he fell down, but he didn't tease his sister anymore. He took a step forward with his sister in his arms, stretched out his hand and pulled a small cluster of sweet-scented osmanthus, and put it in her hand: "Take it and play, brother go up and pick it for you."
He put the dumpling next to the fourth brother, and went up with a step on his long legs.
Xinbao looked up for a while, his neck was tired from watching, so he lowered his head and began to look at the little donkey seriously.
The two elder brothers took their clothes out of their pockets, and then heard the younger sister muttering and singing: "I have a little furry, and I don't want to do it again. One day I went to the market on a whim. I was very proud of the whip, it swelled for some reason and threw me all over in mud...
Fourth Brother Tang shook off the cloth a long time ago, and the two of them put the sweet-scented osmanthus on top. Brother Tang laughed and said, "Xinbao wants to ride a little donkey?"
Xinbao hesitated for a moment, and compared his little fingers: "I want to ride a little bit."
"It's okay," Tang San said, as always, without principle: "Ride if you want, brother will support you."
There was no saddle on the donkey's back, so Brother Tang San took off his coat directly, put it on the donkey's back, and carefully put the milk dumpling on it.
The two elder brothers were protecting her from left to right, the donkey was walking slowly and shaking, Xinbao grabbed her elder brother's arm, a little scared, but also a little excited, with bright eyes: "Yes! "
The two older brothers responded in unison, and after a while she called again: "Yes!"
The two older brothers responded again.
If so, Brother Tang couldn't help laughing and said: "Xin Baoer, are you afraid, do you want to come down?
Xinbao shook his head: "I won't come down."
She was nervous and excited, holding her brother's thumb tightly with her little hand, and walked slowly into the village.
The family had an unremarkable lunch, and then Brother Tang and Brother Tang San went up the mountain to pick another crop of prickly pears.
Tang Qingshan and his wife came back early in the afternoon. Brother Tang took a piece of clothing and gave Tang Qingshan some dirt, asking, "Father, are you busy today?"
Mrs. Lin said next to her: "Since I'm busy, I can't finish it from morning to night. I thought I'd better think about it. It happened that Mrs. Hu came over to ask me. She helped clean up the dishes and prepare the dishes. After cooking, everyone It’s great to be able to leave, and still catch up with dinner when I go home, and it’s only ten pennies a day.”
Brother Tang said: "Yes, we can't get rich with an extra ten cents, so we have to think about it."
The two of them entered the door and saw the extra low fence at a glance. Mrs. Lin narrowed her eyes and looked at it: "I can't live for a few months, and it's worth growing vegetables?"
Second brother said: "Xinbao took Sanlang to play, maybe he can eat it in two days?"
Of course Mrs. Lin didn't believe it, but she didn't care, so she went to help in the kitchen.
Xinbao ran out, hearing the sound, Tang Qingshan turned his head to look at his daughter, the corners of his mouth curled.
Xinbao turned around and ran back again. Tang Qingshan just sat down on the stool in front of the door when he saw her come out again with a dustpan, and then snuggled up to his father.
Tang Qingshan said: "Don't hug, Daddy is dirty."
Xinbao said: "Hug."
She pushed her father's arm away, and squeezed her whole body into his arms. Tang Qingshan had no choice but to hug his daughter up, and said, "The osmanthus flowers you picked at the south end of the village?"
Xinbao nodded, and Xiaopang carefully fiddled with the flowers with his hands, picking out the broken leaves bit by bit.
She felt that she was really smart. When she saw her father's eyes, she just missed her. In this way, her father could rua her, and she could continue to work, both right.
She lowered her head, her little fleshy face was very serious, her little hands were chubby, and she held them like a white ball.
My daughter really gained a little weight.
The old father squeezed his daughter's calf in relief.
Fourth brother Tang poured water over, Tang Qingshan took it, turned his body slightly to drink, and handed the cup to his son while saying, "Are you coming back before noon?"
Tang Qingshan hummed, and Brother Tang started from the beginning.
In fact, it was quite smooth before.
As soon as they went, they met Anshun, the housekeeper from before. He allowed them to sell in front of Shen's dim sum shop. He had a fixed place where they wouldn't be crowded out. Local snakes didn't ask them for protection fees, and they paid two cents a piece. It is also very cheap, and many people come to buy it.
He also made three strings of five cents, buy five and get one free. Many people buy several as soon as they buy it, which is even more popular. However, there are always people bargaining with them, either because they want to buy two and get one free, or Just ask him to give up one and give up two.
One is thin-skinned and embarrassed, and the other is thinking of selling more and selling them out sooner, so he usually agrees.
If one agrees, the latter must also agree.
This county is only so big, and there are only a few people who come and go. Soon, these people are like looking for soft persimmons, and they don’t buy them without bargaining. It was sold out, but the money earned was only more than half of what it was yesterday.
Because these things are just a matter of spending a little firewood for them, so it is not worth paying for them.
But he talked too much, wasted more time, and made less money. He felt awkward in his heart, thinking that he might have done a bad job before, and he shouldn't be so lenient.
Brother Tang explained in great detail.
Tang Qingshan listened quietly.
Twice he seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
Xinbao turned his head up and looked at Daddy.
When she raised her head like this, she could only see her father's resolute chin, but couldn't see his expression clearly.
But for some reason, she always felt that Daddy seemed very sad.
She handed the dustpan to Brother Tang, stood up on Daddy's lap, turned around, hugged his face with two chubby hands, and looked at him seriously.
Tang Qingshan didn't hide, just glanced at his daughter.
He didn't show any expression, but Xinbao just felt that he was sad.
She put her arms around his neck, put her small face close to him, and comforted softly: "Daddy, don't be sad, Xinbao loves you."
Tang Qingshan's mouth curled up, his face turned slightly, and he posted a note to his daughter: "Daddy is not sad."
He touched her little head, and remained silent for a long time, before turning to his son, he said indifferently: "Doing business is troublesome, since you can't do it well, just don't do it."
Fourth Brother Tang was obviously taken aback, then raised his head and asked, "Father?"
Tang Qingshan didn't say any more, he stood up with his daughter in his arms and entered the house.
Brother Tang heard it not far away, frowned, and looked at fourth brother.
Since that incident, Tang Qingshan has never wanted his son to do business again, so even if he knew how to solve this matter, he didn't say anything.
But Brother Tang, Brother Tang and the others should think for themselves, they really don’t know what to do.
Because it is already like this, the opening has already been opened. If it is changed again, these people will feel as if they have suffered a loss, and they will not buy it.
So I can’t change it back.
Brother Tang said in a low voice: "Anyway, it was picked up for nothing, so let's sell it. If you can sell it for a few days, count as many days as you can sell it."
Brother Tang lowered his head and didn't say any more.
The family ate dinner, the brothers boiled sugar as usual, and the milk dumplings took a lot of naps, so they were not sleepy at all, and they ran around to help.
The fourth brother lowered his head, silently cutting prickly pears, feeling depressed.
Different from others, the fourth brother really likes to do business.
Nai Tuanzi looked at her father, and then at her fourth brother. She squatted aside, resting her chin on her hands, and carefully thought about what the fourth brother said just now.
Brother Tang walked from the side, and asked her with a smile: "Little pretty, what are you thinking? Are you frowning?"
