six-fingered peasant girl

Chapter 57

Su Liu gave a reassuring look, and looked at Uncle Zhong with a smile.

The old man sat down and said, "What, little girl, do you want to trade?"

Su Liu took a look at the stall. Although it was located in an alley, but because it was next to a cross street, there were a lot of mobile people, so the flow of people was relatively busy.

She had thought a long time ago that she couldn't get rich just by hunting and farming. If she wanted to make money quickly, the first choice was to do business.

A big business needs to rent a shop, hire small workers, and invest a lot of capital. She doesn't have the capital at present, so she can only do some small businesses.

The location of this stall is good. If the price is right, it may not be impossible to do it.

"There's nothing here, little girl, if you want to buy it, you only need eight taels of silver." Uncle Zhong said the number.

"Eight taels?" Chen Shi and Su Xiao yelled at the same time, both of them were terrified, eight taels is undoubtedly an astronomical figure for them.

Su Liu also frowned, but she was not as surprised as Chen and the others, and asked a few more questions.

Although this stall is not an official one, but because it has been in business for a long time, and has gone to the Yamen and other places to make security records, it can be considered an official stall.

"Uncle Zhong, eight taels of silver is too high. I sincerely want to sell it. Can you think it can be less? I have started this stall. When you come back in the future, you can still come and sit. .” Su Liu said with a smile.

Uncle Zhong frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Well, I think you are honest, little girl, six taels of silver, nothing less."

Six taels, Su Liu made a calculation in her heart, and gritted her teeth: "Okay, then you can give it to me, Mr. Zhong, and I'll go back to raise money."

"You have to hurry up, girl, I'm going to the county in two days."

"Hey."

Uncle Zhong said a few more words and went straight away.

As soon as he walked away, Mrs. Chen hurriedly said, "Liu'er, where did we get the money?"

"Yes, sister, can we do this business?" Su Xiao also looked suspicious: "What can we do?"

"What's wrong? Daqi's laws didn't say that women should not be allowed to do business, did they?" Su Liu said hehe.

But in the end it was to show her face, Chen's eyebrows twitched, and she said in a low voice: "It's not right for a woman to show her face. Our three mothers grow land and buy some chicken breeds to raise. I can also do embroidery on the soles of shoes. Although life is hard , but can always survive."

"Mother, how many shoe soles do you have to pay to earn a tael of silver? I said that it will make you and Xiaoxiao live a good life. Now this is a good opportunity." Su Liu interrupted her, saying: "Let's It's a serious business, so what's the publicity? Look at the tofu Xishi, isn't it the same as the publicity?"

Chen's face was still full of disapproval, Su Liu pursed her lips, and said: "Mother, as long as we have money, we can hire people to watch the stalls, and we can also hire people to protect us, so we don't need to be bullied anymore. "

Mrs. Chen was silent after hearing this, Su Liu gave Su Xiao a wink, and Su Xiao said: "Mother, sister is right, if we use money, we can buy people like those big families, buyers, Who dares to bully us in the future? I'm not afraid that person will come to find fault with us again."

As soon as these words fell, Chen's body trembled slightly, looked up at the two daughters, sighed for a long time and said: "You are all grown up, you have your own ideas, mother can't control it if she wants. "

There is something to be said!

Su Liu immediately leaned over and acted coquettishly: "Mother, what are you talking about? Xiaoxiao and I still rely on you, don't you care about choosing a young master in the future?"

Mrs. Chen was amused, and said angrily, "I don't feel ashamed, you can say that too? Don't be ashamed!"

Su Liu stuck out her tongue, while Su Xiao acted coquettishly.

"Forget it, it's all up to you, but, where do we go to raise the money?" After all, Mrs. Chen compromised, but frowned again thinking of the money.

"As for the money, I'll figure out a way. Let's eat first, otherwise the ravioli will be mushy." Su Liu comforted with a smile. At worst, she went to borrow money shamelessly.

The portion of wonton that Uncle Zhong gave was quite large, and Su Liu and the others were full. At the end, he repeatedly said that since Uncle Zhong had promised them, he could no longer sell the ravioli.

After paying the bill, I went to buy some necessary supplies. Su Liu bought some meat buns and wrapped them up. Then the mother and daughter returned to Da'ao Village with almost a whole cartful of belongings.

Everyone knew that Chen and Li had left Sujia with a burden, but they went to the town to buy a bunch of things the next day, and the news quickly spread throughout Da'ao Village. It also spread to the small courtyard of the Su family.

When Mrs. Huang heard the news, she was so angry that she smashed a teacup, and said angrily: "That bastard, I knew she had no good intentions. She usually has a soft and warm voice, and she's just pretending. Pooh! I said why is she so Okay, I don’t want anything and I’m leaving. I dare not look down on the rags in the house. They have hidden the money long ago, so they can’t buy anything they want? But you gave her two taels of silver, and fed that supercilious child for nothing. If you are a wolf, you might as well throw it into the water."

Old man Su was smoking a pipe, and his ears were buzzing because of her high decibel.

"A big bag of white rice and noodles, bah, she deserves to eat white rice and noodles? It's almost the same to eat pig bran. You bitch, you can only steal and rape a slippery white-eyed wolf." The more Huang thought about it, the more angry she was. Two silver, which was used to buy rice, noodles, and new bedding, she was not willing to eat it herself.

"At any rate, she has served you for more than ten years, let's accumulate some virtue." Mr. Su frowned.

"Why, don't you want me to say a few words when you use my money to buy good things? What's wrong with her? Could it be that I'm wrong? Isn't she just pretending, crying all day with a dead face, I still She’s not dead yet. Make it look like a bitter melon for anyone to see, don’t you all think I’m mean to her.” Huang sneered at Mr. Su sideways, and said, “You think she’s good, bah! A coquettish fox in sheep's clothing will only pretend to be sympathetic."

"I'm too lazy to tell you, I'll go to the field to see the water in the field." Old man Su couldn't stand listening, he took off his kang shoes and walked out.

Huang was very angry, and said to Su Jinfeng: "Look, your father is fascinated by that bitch, he can't see the good and the bad."

"Mom, is it okay for that bitch to live in a haunted house?" Su Jinfeng said another thing, and said with a gloomy face: "It's said that we forced them to go to the haunted house."

Speaking of this, Huang's face turned dark again, and she curled her lips and said, "I'll just see how they are doing, don't think it's okay, this ghost is haunting, and it's one corpse and two lives, and there's a lot of resentment .Maybe I took advantage of them to get angry while they were sleeping."

Su Jinfeng's face turned pale with fright, and he said in a trembling voice: "Mother, then Su Liu and the others will be sucked out of their energy sooner or later and die?"

"I can't wait." Mrs. Huang spat viciously, and said: "You should stay away from them in the future, and don't come back with bad luck."

"I see, don't you see that Chuntao just came back listlessly today?" Su Jinfeng nodded, agreeing.

Huang thought of Su Chuntao coming back crying this morning, and then thought of the haunted house where Su Liu and the others lived, and her face was a little ugly. Maybe she felt intrusive, so she changed the subject and talked about Su Chuntao's marriage.

But Su Liu and the others were completely unaware that they had become the center of the topic and had been cursed hundreds of times, so they just hurriedly opened the things they had just bought.

When Su Liu saw the buns she bought, she asked Mrs. Chen to put away their belongings first, while she ran to Ning Lazi's house with the buns.

"Uncle, are you there? Uncle." Su Liu called a few times, and was about to push the door, but the door was opened from the inside, and a person came out.

She looked up, and when she saw the man in front of her, the bun in her hand fell to the ground, she took two steps back, and asked cautiously, "You, who are you?"

Su Liu looked at the man in front of him in astonishment, and took two steps back. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a wooden stick, leaped up, picked it up, and laid it across her chest.

"You, who are you?" Su Liu was vigilant and alert, and called a few times: "Uncle, uncle."

The man in front of him took a step forward. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, deep eyes, sharp as an eagle, healthy bronze skin, a high nose, a slightly thick upper lip, slightly pursed, and a blue beard around his chin, as if he had just shaved A beard, with a demagogic sex appeal.

Su Liu looked at it carefully, something crossed his mind, and his heart beat inexplicably faster.

"You broke your promise." The man saw Su Liu's stunned expression, and a smile flashed across his eyes, thinking that she missed the appointment, his face sank again.

With a slap, the wooden stick in Su Liu's hand fell to the ground, and he was even more surprised: "Uncle?"

God, this man looks to be at most 25 or [-] years old. Is it the middle-aged uncle with a beard and a spoiled face she knows?

That's right, the one in front of him was Ning Lazi, that is, Ning Guang. He touched his face, snorted, and went to the front of the house to chop firewood.

The sound of chopping firewood brought Su Liu back to his senses, looking over, Ning Guang struck down with an axe, the firewood was split into four pieces, and the pieces flew around.

Still unable to believe it, Su Liu ran over, covered Ning Guang's lower half with both hands, and looked left and right.

"What are you doing?" Ning Guang frowned.

"It's really uncle!" Su Liu said stupidly.

The tip of the nose was filled with a fragrance of virginity, Ning Guang's ears and neck gradually turned red, he pushed her hand away awkwardly, and said angrily: "A girl's house is so close, how can she not be ashamed?"

Su Liu was stunned for a moment, seeing that his ears were red, she couldn't help smiling, and said, "Uncle is blushing!"

Ning Guang's face darkened, and he seemed to be really angry this time. Seeing this, Su Liu hurriedly said, "Uncle, ah, no, brother, I brought buns here, would you like one?"

Su Liu ran over to pick up the buns, patted them, and said, "Fortunately, it's wrapped in cloth." Then she called to Ning Guang, "Come here, it's still hot."

Ning Guang pursed his lips, and walked over. The two sat on the stone bench in front of the house. Su Liu handed over a bun and said, "Here."

After hesitating for a while, Ning Guang took a bite and said, "Go to town?"

"Yeah." Su Liu turned his head to look at him with his chin resting on his shoulders. Sure enough, he was more handsome from the side, with a sharp chin, he was a tough guy.

Ning Guang turned his head inadvertently, seeing her staring at him blankly, his heart skipped a beat, he turned his head and scolded: "Who taught you to stare at a man like this?"

"Uncle, no, I should call you Brother Ning, right? Why did you shave your beard? How old are you?" Su Liu giggled.

"Ning Guang!"

"Huh?" Su Liu didn't know why.

"I said my name is Ning Guang." Ning Guang gave her an angry look and said, "25, from Jingzhou, unmarried."

"Oh, ah?" Su Liu blinked, she didn't seem to ask this, but seeing his ears were red, her heart moved, she coughed, and don't start.

Both of them felt a little embarrassed.

"that……"

"What are you going to do in town?" Ning Guang asked casually.

"Ah! Just to buy some supplies. I'm sorry about that. I forgot to make an appointment with you to go hunting in the mountains. I really didn't have anything at home, so I thought about going to the town first. I didn't break my promise on purpose." Su Liu explained.

Ning Guang hummed.

"Well, Brother Ning, I have something to ask you." Su Liu thought about it and said, "I know that my request is a little too much, but I don't know anyone, and I don't have friends with a few people. After much deliberation, I can only Thinking of you."
