Eldest Sister, Why Haven’t You Married Yet

In the early morning of the second day, the younger sisters went to the city to sell their sour plum soup. When the young silver went back to take the second round of sour plum soup, they brought the Su family and a pair of twins out of the way. Sisters.

This was the first time Su Shi came to the city after moving to Wuli Bridge, sitting in an oxcart and watching the scenery along the road.

Uncle Niu and the Su family are already very familiar, and they directly pull people to the place where the young gold stands, and save them from tossing with a few children. Seeing Su’s coming, Youjin hurried to meet him, reached out to take the child in your arms, and then led Su to sit in a cooler place beside her: “Mother, please rest for a while, wait for us Go to the hospital after the sale. “

Su’s nodded slightly: “It’s okay, you are busy first, don’t worry about me so much, hurry to greet the guests!” It turned out that some customers came to buy sour plum soup. Seeing a few children with sharp hands and clever teeth, Su couldn’t help feeling that the eldest daughter was indeed able to raise children more than her own mother, and several daughters were more sensible and clever than their peers in the same age.

The sour plum soup of the Su family is now well-known in Luohe Prefecture, and the price is not expensive. The general public can also drink it, and many of them have to drink and have to take a bowl to take away, so the young Jin sisters I made rough bamboo bowls of considerable size using bamboo bamboo knots on the mountain. There was no need to add money for packing. More people bought. Two barrels of sour plum soup were sold out in less than half an hour.

The mobile stall rented by the young gold sisters is outside the door of a grocery store. The grocery store’s owner is named Li Ershun. He also asks for some sour plum soup from time to time. Young gold doesn’t need him any money either. .

Li Ershun saw her come in with a bowl of plum soup, and he said with a smile: “Sujia girl, you are more polite!” But she did not reject the plum soup in her hand.

“Li’s shopkeeper, we set up a stall at your door. Thanks to your care, it should be.” You Jin put the sour plum soup on the counter, and then put the simple wooden table he set up in the corner and put it in the corner. Smile and say goodbye to him: “Li shopkeeper, then we will go first, see you tomorrow.”

“Hey!” Li Ershun smiled and picked up a large bowl of plum soup, and then sighed with satisfaction. The ghost was really getting hotter.

After selling the sour plum soup, he sent the empty barrels to Uncle Niu. Young Jin also told Uncle Niu that he would come to Xishikou to pick up his family for a while. After he had seen the doctor with Su Shi, he had to buy some food. You can’t go back without a bullock cart.

In the medical hall, an old doctor with a white beard pondered the pulse of the Su family, and said: “There is a serious loss in the inside, and the body is all vacant. Now although there is no serious illness, if you don’t get up early, wait a few years, but you want to If something serious happens, Yu Shoushu is also hindering. “

Su’s heart was also surprised when she heard it. If she died, what would happen to her nine children? The young Jin who was holding Kang’er was also frowning, and then said in a deep voice: “Doctor, what do you want to eat, you can always say that as long as you can take care of my mother’s body, you can spend as much money as possible.”

Seeing the family wearing white-washed coarse clothes, the old doctor sighed. If the woman’s illness was born in a wealthy family, it would not be a serious illness, but the person in front is obviously a poor family in the general town. Affordable? “A post of medicine costs money, and I will prescribe a few posts for you. Let’s go back and eat.”

“It’s so expensive!” Su’s voice exclaimed. Although there are some silver in the house now, is it too expensive?

The young gold on the side shook his head slightly: “Doctor, I would like to ask you to open a month, we have silver.” He took out a few pieces of silver from his arms and put it on the table.

Both the old doctor and the Su family did not expect that the young gold even took out some of the silver in one breath. When the old doctor saw that she was rich, he nodded, wrote down a prescription and handed it to the medicine boy on the side: “A daily note , Go and pick up a month’s worth of medicine. “

Then he turned back to Young Jin and said: “Your mother’s body has been in deficit for many years. You need to eat more tonic medicines. Wild mountain ginseng and golden cicada flower are all acceptable, but these two prices are more expensive. , Especially the golden cicada flower, which is of great use to your mother ’s body, but our medical hall has no golden cicada flower recently. “

When the young Jin heard it, she asked, “Doctor, what does this golden cicada look like?”

The old doctor probably described it and finally said: “How long does Jin Chanhua grow in the bamboo forest? If you are interested, you can also go to the nearby Zhushan Mountain.” The two discussed the Su’s condition for a while. After reading it to the Su family, he looked at the two premature twins again. The Su family came out of the hospital carrying 30 packs of medicine.

After leaving the medical hall, the sun was already in the sky, and the mother and daughter hurried to the grain shop to buy Wudou japonica rice and some coarse grains before they hurried home.

Today, Su also came out. When there were no cooks in the family for a while, Young Jin led everyone to a bun stall in Xishi and bought a dozen buns for one meat bun and one vegetable bun per person.

Young Yin, who was behind him, saw the two dirty little beggars again, and pulled the sleeve of the elder sister to signal: “Elder sister …”

Young Jin sighed: “Boss, ask for two more buns.” Give the two buns in large leaves to You Yin, “Go!”

You Yin took the bun happily, and then quickly walked in front of the two little beggars, and directly stuffed the bun into the big hand: “You eat!” Then quickly ran back to the young gold and others, followed Going to the Nancheng Gate, he quietly turned back and waved goodbye to the two stupefied beggars.

The little beggar smelled the warm aroma of the meat wraps in his brother’s hands, and the greedy saliva flowed, and anxiously dragged him to look at the distant brother: “Brother, I want to eat meat wraps …”

It wasn’t until the Su family’s figure disappeared that Da Qi’er recovered, and he shared the hot meat buns with his younger brother one by one, with black and greasy fingers printed on Xuanhe’s bun skin, watching by others It was extremely appetizing, but the two little beggars ate very deliciously. An adult ’s fist-sized buns, both of them ate up in a short while, and the little one would never smash it.

***

It did n’t cost much money to see Su, and now there are more than 600 silver in the family. Young Jin also knows that he should think about what to do next, although 6002 is not a small amount, but he There are also seven younger sisters who have grown up and want to marry, and the dowry alone can hollow out the family!

The depressions by the river have been constantly composting. The sunflowers grown on the wasteland have grown a lot. The peppers planted before have grown three-inch seedlings. The young gold is still near the wasteland on the side of the mountain. I planted eight seedlings of grapes from the Western Region bought from the merchants of the Western Region, and now walking across the river, you can see that the previous desolation has turned into a thriving.

Looking at the already flat land on the other side of the river, thinking of the importance of land in this era, he decided to buy more land, even if the tenants went out for human cultivation, it was better than putting silver in his hands to cover it.

Young Jin is a highly efficient person. After selling the plum soup the next morning, he went to the surname Chen who bought the house for his house. Chen Yaren was still somewhat impressed by the little girl who bought the Wuliqiao Haunted Mansion. Seeing her as she was originally worried about whether she would sell the house, she was relieved when she heard that she was buying land. How much land do you want to buy? “

“How much is the first-class Liangtian for one acre?” Young Jin took the tea from the teacup in front of her, or asked the price first to decide how much land to buy.

Chen Yaren said with a smile: “Now the best Liangtian is going to be sold for eight or two silver acres.” Seeing the young gold eyes are big, Chen Yaren explained: “Little girl, this is the price. The price of Liangtian near Wuliqiao, if you think it is expensive, then go far, Wuliqiao used to walk six or seven miles in the past, there are also seven or two silver acres there. “

This price is really a bit high. In Cuifeng Village, even two days of waiting is only five or two silver acres. This Wuli Bridge is so expensive! It took a long time for Young Jin to decide before she decided: “Uncle Chen, let’s go to the ground to see how?” After the comparison, she made a decision.

Young Jin spent 11 years at Yue’s house, and naturally knows how to distinguish whether a field is a good land. When he went to a village called Houjiawan from Wuliqiao to south Qili, Chen Yaren said 16 acres of good land Just across the river bay.

Young Jin took it seriously. He turned around the place where Chen Yaren said seriously, looked at the ditch again, and then looked at the soil again, which was quite satisfactory.

Chen Yaren didn’t expect that the little girl would read these things. Originally, she was still underestimated. Now she dared not think about it anymore. With the big sun on her face, she said with a smile: “Miss Su, this place is really good The sixteen acres of good land in the area are easy to irrigate, and the official road is on the side. It is not good to be far away from Luohe Prefecture. The ones next to it are all first-class. Otherwise, they dare not ask for seven. Two silver acres? “

Young Jin nodded, but did not say that he would buy it immediately. He only said: “Uncle Chen, let’s go back and look at Wuliqiao.”

Chen Yaren also understood that after all, buying land was not a trivial matter. Nodding, the two of them got on the mule car and went back to Wuliqiao. There are only eight acres of good land in Wuliqiao, just behind the houses on the east side of the river, but some distance from Wuliqiao River. Irrigation is not as convenient as Houjiawan.

After watching Wuliqiao, Young Jin had already made up his mind. It took only a few months for him to move to Wuliqiao. It would be too eye-catching to buy so many good fields. Trouble, by comparison, Houjiawan has won.

Young Jin and Chen Yaren walked one by one on the edge of the river to the Su family: “Uncle Chen, can the land in Houjiawan be cheaper?”

“If you need 16 acres, how about six, two, seven, and one acres?” Chen Yaren thought for a moment, and gave a fairly favorable price: “Miss Su, that place is really good, and It is smooth and easy to irrigate.

Young Jin pushed the door open, and the four dogs who were sitting or lying in the yard immediately woke up. When they saw that they were their own masters, they all came over with their tails wagging. Young Jin smiled and waved his hand, beckoning them to let go, and then invited Chen Yaren to come in: “It’s so much that Uncle Chen and our family can settle down in Luohe Prefecture. Today we are all here to take a break and drink.”

Chen Yaren was n’t the first to come back to this house, but every time he came back, he felt groggy, but came back today, only to feel that the fireworks in the yard were full of fire, and the desolate ghost house had become a warm and neat Farmhouse. Chen Yaren sat on the stool that Young Jin moved over, and sighed comfortably with the Sujia secret sour plum soup. “It seems that you lived here very well, presumably with the girl of the Qin family. It ’s a fate. “

Young Jin smiled and said nothing, and pulled the topic back to the ground in Houjiawan: “Uncle Chen, these six or two dollars a mu is really more expensive. If six or two or five dollars, if the host is willing, then I bought it all. “

The six-two-five-dollar money is not Chen Yaren’s words. He thought about it and said: “Sure, then I will go to Houjiawan tomorrow. If the host agrees, I will bring you a letter Come here. “

After the two had finished speaking, Chen Yaren had enough rest, so he said goodbye to You Jin with a smile, and agreed that he would come again tomorrow afternoon.
