Although Aunt Ya said it as a joke, she was sure that Zhang Jiancheng and Feng Xiuxiu would get together in the end no matter what.

Especially when something big happened to Xiuxiu, Zhang Jiancheng's various performances showed that Feng Xiuxiu was an extremely important person to him.

Xiu Xiu got to know Aunt Ya very well and was not angry at Aunt Ya's jokes. She just said: "Don't keep making fun of Aunt Ya!"

After entering the house, he pulled Aunt Ya to the bedside and explained: "Brother Jiancheng said that from now on we will be comrades in arms, and we will fight side by side to raise Dandan!"

Aunt Ya laughed and said, "Okay, okay! Auntie is old, and I can't take care of these rare things you young people do!" She patted Xiu Xiu's hand and said, "Xiu'er, you are in perfect health. Yet?"

"Okay! I'm full of energy! I can work in the fields during the day, and I can do sewing at night, and I can look at my balls with my hands. It's not a hassle!"

Aunt Ya nodded, took a closer look at Xiuxiu's complexion, and felt that she was recovering well, so she said, "Auntie is here to discuss this needlework with you!"

Aunt Ya did have something serious to say when she came back. She wanted to introduce a business customer to Xiu Xiu. The other party was a woman married in Hongcun, and she had met Aunt Ya several times before.

This woman married to Yuanshang Town, which was very close to the urban area of ​​Zhixi City. Later, she moved to the urban area. During the days when Xiu Xiu was recuperating, the woman happened to come back to visit relatives and stopped by Xiaoxi Village.

When I visited Aunt Ya, I saw the small shirt on Xiao Shitou. The style was novel and beautiful. I fell in love with it immediately. I asked Aunt Ya that it was made by Xiu Xiu’s craftsmanship, so I asked Aunt Ya to help me get some clothes. Business.

Aunt Ya said: "She said she will make the cloth, you just make it, it costs [-] cents a piece, and she will take away as many pieces as you make before she leaves on the sixth day of the next month!"

Xiu Xiu was mentally prepared for doing business, but she didn't expect the opportunity to come so early.

During this period, the period of social unrest had just been adjusted, and the market economy began to slowly develop. That person came from Yuanshang Town near the urban area. The information flow must be faster than that of Xiaoxi Village, and the economy would develop faster. That person wanted to This business must have been planned for a long time.

Xiu Xiu knew that what that person valued must be that Xiaoxi Village's lack of information and economy meant that the purchase price would be much cheaper. She thought that this business was not in a hurry and could be regarded as a test for her future business.

So Xiuxiu imitated how to do business and asked, "Can she afford to make as many items as she wants?"

Aunt Ya said: "That's what she said anyway, no credit, just pay and deliver!"

Aunt Ya was also a cautious person and did not agree immediately. She just wanted to discuss it with Xiu Xiu first to see what Xiu Xiu's opinion was:

"How much does it cost just to buy cloth? I don't know if it's reliable! But it's only [-] cents a piece. If I can make twenty or thirty pieces, I'll still have a lot of money!"

Aunt Ya said, looking at Xiuxiu's contemplative look, she felt that Xiuxiu was a little unhappy, so she added: "You didn't see her dress, but it is fashionable. Auntie doesn't look like she has money. I heard that she The man I married is someone who understands technology..."

Xiuxiu was originally thinking about how to negotiate this business. After hearing what Aunt Ya said, she blinked and asked, "Auntie, do you also want to learn to work with me and earn some money?"

Small money? "

"Hi..." Aunt Ya patted her thigh and said, "Auntie is a rough person, a rough person!" She spoke modestly, but her face was a bit embarrassed. The self-awareness in Aunt Ya's bones had been affected by Xiuxiu. , of course it’s good to make money.

Xiuxiu smiled and saw what Aunt Ya was thinking, so she said, "You are easy to learn needlework, I will teach you!"

"Oh, Aunt, you are a rough person, you are a rough person..." Aunt Ya said cheerfully, and the luster on her face changed.

Xiuxiu had an idea and said, "Since she wants to do business, she must be sincere. I'll draw a few samples first and you can show them to her. Children's clothes are fifty cents a piece, and adults' clothes are a piece. The guarantee is ten cents. Starting from one piece, please pay a deposit of four yuan first!”

Aunt Ya had never done business before. When she heard what Xiu Xiu said, she was shocked: "Xiu'er! You can't do this, can I agree to it?"

"If you don't agree, it means you are not sincere. Why should we bother her?" Xiuxiu said, "If she agrees, let her bring the cloth. I will teach you. We will work together at night. The clothes you make will be yours." Yes, the clothes I made are mine, how about it?"

Aunt Ya felt that what Xiu Xiu said seemed to make sense, so she clapped her hands and said, "That's a great relationship! I'll tell her about it tomorrow!"

After discussing the matter, Aunt Ya helped Xiuxiu tidy up a little more, and then they both went home.

It was already dark. Xiuxiu was walking in the alley of the village. She was still a little scared. She walked home quickly. When she entered the door and saw her father smoking a cigarette in the yard, she felt her nervous heart relax. This was Xiu Xiu's nervousness. For the first time, Xiu felt reassured by having a family as his backing.

"Back!" The father put down his cigarette bag and stood up.

According to the past, Xiuxiu

If you come back so late, you will definitely get scolded by your parents. Everything is different now.

"Yeah!" Xiu Xiu responded, put the things into the room, and then came out and asked, "Dad! Where are the balls?"

"Fell asleep!"

After Father Feng finished answering, the two of them were speechless for a while. Father Feng picked up the pipe again and started smoking. Xiuxiu stood in the courtyard and looked at him, having something to say but not knowing how to speak.

But it was Father Feng who spoke first: "The day I picked you up, there was a strong wind at night, and it was a cool autumn night! I felt lucky at that time! A little living creature was humming next to me... That was me The best thing I have done in my life..."

With her balls, Xiuxiu could easily imagine the situation described by Feng's father. She felt as if she could see herself as a baby.

Although she was adopted by Chen Liu Mazi, Xiuxiu was lucky that Feng's father adopted her, otherwise who knows whether Chen Liu Mazi could have let her survive well.

Father Feng took a puff of cigarette and sighed: "Although I adopted you, you don't have to feel burdened! Dad is not kind to you! Ever since you became sensible..."

At this point, Father Feng looked at the eldest daughter and his tone became quite uneasy: "You are too sensible! Chen Guilan is lazy and greedy to take care of this and that at home. You have been ordered around by her at a young age. Dad saw it and just wanted to be comfortable, so he didn't care..."

Having said this, Father Feng paused for a moment, holding the dry tobacco bag in his hand. The red-hot tobacco shreds flickered on and off. He looked up at the dark sky, sighed heavily and said:

"In total, you have been tired and suffered from serving our family all these years when you have grown up. Seventeen

An eight-year-old child, being bossed around by an eight-year-old girl, can be considered a return of affection..."

When Xiuxiu heard this, all the resentment she felt in her previous life seemed to be gone.

After saying this, Father Feng knocked on his pipe and hid his face sadly: "I think after living for so many years, I have become a joke in the end. I can't think about it and want to hang myself..."

"Dad..." Xiuxiu walked up to her father and wanted to comfort him, but her father waved his hand and said, "You should just do it once and forget it. If you don't succeed, you will never do it again!"

He said with tears in his eyes: "I'm still afraid... Dad will be like this for the rest of his life!"
