I live in Miao Village

When Ayaoduo said these words, there was a sense of ruthlessness and determination in her bones, and the crowd was so shocked that they dared not make a sound.

Old Cousin Jin's mouth trembled, trying to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to say it.His group of cronies and friends usually eat and drink all right, but when they encounter a tough one, they are all cowardly.

A Yaoduo glanced at them, and looked up to see a person coming out of the lobby of the main room tremblingly, staggering on crutches, if not for the support of a middle-aged woman next to him, he would not be able to stand up at all.

"What are you doing, what are you doing? It's a family, it's like this, I wish the family would break up soon, don't you?"

The speaker was an elderly man dressed in traditional Miao men's clothing, with gray hair and haggard face, but he was tall and dignified, and he was a figure when he was young.

Xue Yi guessed that he was Mr. Jin, and the woman supporting him next to him didn't know if it was Ayaoduo's aunt or third aunt.

Seeing him, Old Cousin Jin rushed towards him as if seeing a savior, and said out of breath, "Dad, Ayaoduo, it's Ayaoduo who is causing trouble. Look at her, she didn't learn well at a young age, and she knew how to communicate with the society all day long. People come and go on the Internet, and these people are all brought by her."

Ayaoduo was not afraid at all, "If I don't call these people, do I want you to insult and tease me as much as I want?"

"Insulting and teasing?" Old Cousin Jin leaned back, shaking his legs, and said, "I taught you a few words for your own good, so as not to embarrass our Jin family if you don't get married in the future. You said that you are a girl, and you will do it every now and then. Like what?"

"For my own good? Do you dare to repeat what you said just now? Do you dare to let him repeat what he said?" Ayaoduo said and pointed at the person who was full of foul language just now.

"Repeat what? What did I say?" Old Cousin Jin said, "I'm just teaching you a lesson for your parents. It's fine if you don't appreciate it. You even framed me for insulting and teasing you. Look at how you beat your uncle. Yes, Dad, if you don’t believe me, ask them to see if I’m right!”

Seeing Mr. Jin coming out, Mr. Jin's group of cronies turned around in an instant, and hurriedly said yes, yes, "I just said a few words to A Yaoduo, and A Yaoduo beat me like this."

"You're lying! You were beaten because you owed it." Hao Qiankun was also very angry when he saw Ayaoduo clenched his fists in anger, but he just repeated the man's obscene words out of embarrassment.

The man was even more proud, and said with a face that was about to swell into a pig's head: "I lied? How can we adults lie? Do you think Mr. Jin believes in us or you little bastards with no hair yet!"

Xia Xiang couldn't help but said, "What nonsense are you talking to them? Give them a beating!"

"Hey, you have to do it! Ayaoduo, you don't have to worry about damaging your merits if you do it in front of the old man, and even bring outsiders home to make trouble. This is a big treasonous crime, spreading the word..."

The man touched the face that was swollen by A Yaoduo, the more he thought about it, the more he hated it, the more he hated it, the more he talked, just talking, when he suddenly heard his own voice.

"Yeah, I didn't see it, I just saw two beautiful little girls in front of me, what do you want, let your father marry you to me, and I'll give it to you!"

"What, your father is dead? Don't worry, you just follow me."

"Come on, girl, sit on my lap and speak slowly if you have something to say...ah!"

Xue Yi held up the camera, turned the volume to the maximum, and replayed what the man said, afraid that Mr. Jin could not hear clearly, so he deliberately walked a few steps forward.

"Did you hear clearly? Do you want me to play it again?" Xue Yi sneered: "Don't think that you are elders and you can just talk nonsense. God can't hear you. My camera can hear it clearly and I can play it for you at any time. "

"Who are you? Why are you here to make trouble?" Old Cousin Jin's voice was loud at first, but it soon became weaker.

"Let me be fair." Xue Yi glanced at him, turned the video back, and played it from when Ayaoduo entered the door.

"You said that you taught Ayaoduo for her own good. You think you are a friendly uncle. Why do you still say that Ayaoduo eats and drinks for free at your house? Besides, Party Secretary Fang pays your living expenses every month. If you want If you don’t like it, you can say, since you have received the money, then shut up, why are you talking now? Isn’t this the same thing as the former and the latter?”

Old Cousin Jin murmured what to say, but Xue Yi didn't give him a chance to refute, and continued: "You are an elder, if you don't act upright, if you don't correct your words, don't change your words. The cronies who insulted your niece with obscenities! I think you are the one who is with outsiders to bully the clansmen, this is a big treasonous crime!"

Collaborating with outsiders to bully the people is a major crime here. Old Cousin Jin wanted to cover Ayaoduo with a crime of treason, but Xue Yigai went back, trembling his upper and lower lips and said: "I, I..."

Xue Yi still didn't give him a chance to speak, and rushed to say: "You said that you are an adult, an elder, and you can't lie. Why didn't I hear a single truth, it was all your foul language, right Mr. Jin? ?”

Xue Yi deliberately threw the conversation at Mr. Jin. When the first audio was played, Mr. Jin's face was already very ugly. When Xue Yi asked, the old man finally couldn't hold back, and hit the man with a stick, "How dare you Insult my granddaughter, see if I don't beat you to death."

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Old Cousin Jin turned around and wanted to run away. Hao Qiankun and Xia Xiang exchanged glances, blocked his way out, and pushed him in front of Old Man Jin.

After Mr. Jin beat up the man whose face was swollen like a pig, he raised his hand to Old Cousin Jin and gave another crutch, "How dare you take money from your brother-in-law? Didn't I say that Ayaoduo lives here casually? Your brother-in-law is so helpful to you!" , how dare you take his money?"

Seeing that he didn't fight enough to relieve her anger, Ayaoduo added the knife and said, "Not only did he take my dad's money, but he also tried to trick my mom into selling my house and fields cheap."

"What? It's not enough for you to sell me, but you also want to sell your brother-in-law. You're such a prodigal, I'll kill you."

"No, no, Dad, Dad, hit it lightly, hit it lightly...don't listen to Ayaoduo's nonsense." Old Cousin Jin was kicked on the ground by Mr. Jin, screaming in pain.

"Nonsense?" Xue Yi thought it was almost enough, but seeing that he refused to admit his mistake, he shook the camera and said, "I recorded the scene where you chased Ayaoduo's mother and daughter for the real estate certificate and land certificate that day. Don't look at it?"

Mr. Jin became even more angry. As soon as he got down on crutches, the bones of Mr. Jin's body snapped and broke somewhere, and he had to lie on the ground and be beaten in an instant. The middle-aged woman who was helping Mr. Jin advised: "Dad, stop beating!" , If you fight again, something will happen."

Mr. Jin still didn't give up. Seeing that the situation was not going well, those cronies hurriedly slipped away.

Xue Yi was worried that things would get serious, so he let Hao Qiankun and Xia Xiang slip away first, A Yaoduo snorted, "What could happen, I'm just afraid that my grandpa will beat him and pretend to be dead."

Xue nodded, and was suddenly pushed. An old woman in a blue turban pushed her and A Yaoduo away, threw herself on Old Cousin Jin and said, "What are you doing, you are only his son, that little girl Don’t feel bad, don’t you feel bad? Kill yourself and make another one.”

When the old woman mentioned the little girl, she glanced at A Yaoduo, the viciousness in her eyes was rare in Xue Yi's life, she thought to herself that it's no wonder that Old Cousin Jin is so unscrupulous, there is a mother who condones all his evil deeds!

"Dad, don't hit him, let him go around." Then two more people came, Ayaoduo's third aunt and third uncle. The third aunt tried to dissuade him a few times, but the third uncle pulled the old man aside.

"It's really, really maddening me to death." Mr. Jin gasped wildly while clutching his chest, thinking of the pair of horns on the door plaque, he couldn't calm down, "This son who is not angry, let's beat him to death."

"Calm down, calm down." Aunt San patted him on the back to comfort him, and asked her husband, Wang Ping, to carry Old Jin back into the room.

Grandma cursed and refused to obey, and stared at Ayaoduo with hatred, saying that you, a troublemaker, are here again, and every time you want to make the house dirty and smoky.

The third aunt said that she should not say a few words, this kind of trouble is not once or twice, and it will be over after all the anger is calmed down.

After calming down, Ayaoduo asked grandpa why he got up, and is he in better health?

Ever since Old Cousin Jin sold the pair of ox horns on the door plaque, old man Jin vomited blood with anger, and has been bedridden for more than half a year. Today, when he woke up suddenly, Ayaoduo didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

Mr. Jin shook his head and sighed: "I'm old, I can't do it. I hope to have a son to inherit this craft all my life. In the end, it's better to let this son die."

Seeing that Ayaoduo was carrying a sack full of her things, she asked, "Ayaoduo, are you going to move out? Why don't you stay at home? Is your uncle bullying you? Tell grandpa , Grandpa will teach him a lesson for you."

"No, no one bullied me." A Yaoduo wanted to break up with Jin Jiaen when she came back this time, and never came back again. Unexpectedly, her grandfather, who had been bedridden, suddenly woke up, and his heart softened instantly. I have to go to study at night, and the time is tight, so those of us who can live on campus will live on campus, so I just..."

"Then will you come back to see grandpa?" Old Mr. Jin seemed to know that A Yaoduo had made up his mind not to come back as he was getting older, so he asked this question.

A Yaoduo's heart was even softer, she said with tears: "Yes."

"Okay, okay, you must come back to see grandpa, grandpa is waiting for you in the hut in the back alley, you know?"

"Ok!"

Wang Ping came out from the inner room, saw that Ayaoduo and Xue Yi were leaving, and said to stay and have a meal before leaving. If you don’t eat, the guest next to him will also eat. How can we Miao people let the guests go back on an empty stomach, third aunt He also said what to do when he moved to school. Are you so nervous about studying?

A Yaoduo was a little shaken, but when she saw her grandma coming out from the back of the house, she said that she would have class in the afternoon, if she didn't leave, she would be late, so she pulled Xue Yi away.

After coming out of Jinjiayinfang, Ayaoduo was a little depressed, even Hao Qiankun and Xia Xiang jumped out to scare her unmoved.

Although uncle and grandmother are top-notch, grandpa, third aunt and third uncle are all very good people, wouldn't it be too reckless to move out rashly?Will it break their hearts?

Xue Yi saw her thoughts and said to her heart that my girl looks so tough and decisive on the outside, but she is still soft and delicate on the inside. He comforted her and said that it's okay, you just go back to see your grandfather more often in the future.

"Yes, yes, don't be sad." Hao Qiankun and Xia Xiang also comforted her.

Xue Yi rubbed her hair distressedly, and asked: "Where is the hut in the old street? Is there anything special about it? Your grandfather wants you to go there to see him."

"That's our family's old silver workshop. It's only one street away from the current Jinjiayinfang. When I was a child, I often watched my grandfather make jewelry there. Here, it's behind that."

Xue Yi looked in the direction of her finger, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "I understand, since your grandfather told you to go, you go, and stay with him for a while longer. What does he want to tell you? , you just write it down seriously, you know?"

"Yeah." A Yaoduo sniffed, and quickly recovered, and joked with Hao Qiankun, Xia Xiang and others, saying that you pretended to be punks just now, and it scared my uncle like that.

Hao Qiankun wiped his nose, and put on his school uniform, "Actually, I'm quite (scared) too, but when I saw that your uncle is as old as you are, and you're still so timid, I'm right now."

"Hahaha, seeing how fierce you are, I thought you were not false at all, that's why I dared to beat you up, so it turns out... Hahaha..." Xia Xiang said, and several people laughed.

Hearty laughter echoed in the market in the old street of Chongnan City, and the somewhat deserted Qingshiban Road was quite lively.

In the early spring, many craftsmen in the old street have not opened yet. After a while, the weather will be completely warm and the old street will be lively.

Ayaoduo looked at the store on the street amidst laughter and laughter. Over the past hundred years, the door plaques on the old street have come and gone and changed so many times.Now, is it finally the turn of Jinjiayinfang?

Xue Yi held her hand tightly and smiled.

****

"Uncle, how much is a pack of this kind of candy?" The two returned to the dormitory to put away their things, thanked Hao Qiankun and Xia Xiang, and then went to the wholesale market to see the goods.

Chongnan City has a total of more than [-] people. A city the size of a sesame seed can travel from the city center to the urban-rural fringe within an hour. It cannot be too small. The wholesale market is quite large, with a wide variety of goods.

Ayaoduo was bargaining with people in front of a candy stall.

"Twenty cents a bag, if you want it, just leave, don't let it go."

"It's cheaper, uncle, you see, we are also bringing it to others, and they ask for a lot, how about a dime?"

"A dime? Little sister, are you kidding me? I'll sell it to you for a dime, and I'll drink the northwest wind, okay? Add some more, and it's too cheap to make any money."

I don't know where the boss is from, his accent is quite funny, but Xue Yi can understand it, he tugged at the corner of A Yaoduo's clothes and said: Is it too hard to bargain?

A Yaoduo was unmoved, a dime is a dime.

"Eighteen cents, it can't be any cheaper."

"Mao."

"Seventeen cents."

"Mao."

The boss thought that he had already lowered the price on his own initiative, and the little sister wanted to increase the price no matter what. Unexpectedly, she was still ten cents. If it’s too low, you can take it if you want, and if you don’t, just forget it.”

"Two cents." Ayaoduo finally let go, but the bid was still pitifully low.

"Fifteen cents!" the boss said with determination.

"Two cents." A Yaoduo still did not waver, the store owner became impatient, waved his hand and said forget it, it will not be sold, and there is no bargaining.

A Yaoduo: "Uncle, you are not losing money at this price. I have asked several companies, and they are all at this price."

"No, no, I can't afford this price."

"Okay then, let's go to the original one!" A Yaoduo showed a regretful expression, and pulled Xue Yi to turn around and leave. Xue Yi was afraid that he could not find such a cheap store, so he whispered that this store was already the cheapest. It's cheap, after passing this place... Before I finished speaking, I heard the boss say: "Come back!"

Ayaoduo stopped immediately, smiled triumphantly, turned around and said, "What's the matter, uncle?"

"Take it away, take it away, really, I've convinced you, and I can do business!" The boss put candy in his pocket and said, don't tell others that I sold you at this price, or I won't sell it to you next time up.At the end, I added a sentence, it’s a loss, it’s a loss, I wouldn’t sell it to you if it wasn’t for the sake of you buying a lot.

"Yes, yes, yes." Ayaoduo responded repeatedly, and quietly gestured OK to Xue Yi.

Xue Yi shook his head in admiration, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"How do you know that he will definitely call you back and sell it to you cheaply." Coming out of the candy wholesale store, Xue Yi asked curiously.

"Because the wholesale price of this kind of candy is this price, I have investigated it, but I went to buy it because his purchase channel is more formal."

"Then what if he just refuses to lower the price, and other houses are not as cheap as his?"

"Then I'll go back to his house to buy it." Seeing Xue Yi's surprise, Ayaoduo smiled and said, "Teacher, you can't be afraid of losing face when doing business. This kind of businessman is very cunning. Think about it, if we really paid [-] cents If he buys a pack, he will make a net profit of [-] cents. But he is willing to sell it to us for [-] cents, which means the original price is lower, are you right?"

"Yes." Xue nodded.

"There are [-] fruit candies in a pack. Our school sells them for [-] cent and [-] per cent. We don't say too much, and we can earn [-] cents if we sell them for [-] cents per pack. Eight cents less, that man is really cunning."

"Yes, yes." Xue Yi responded weakly, wanting to say that you can even see the little Jiujiu in his heart, aren't you more cunning?

The two of them spent the whole afternoon buying goods in the wholesale market, preparing for the opening of a canteen. Xue Yi had seen what bargaining is. Except for the wholesale and retail prices of edible salt, which are rigidly stipulated by the state, she haggled everything else that could be bargained. up.

She knows how much something is worth and what price should be bargained. She also knows which shop owner wants to sell the things quickly and close the door to go home. She also knows that she can use this to make the boss cheaper.

Xue Yi really admired her so much that she couldn't be more admired. If she were, she would definitely not dare to cut too hard, but once someone agrees, she will sell it to you at this price, and she will regret it again, because the other party promised too quickly, and they will always give it to you. Xue Yi felt cheated, thinking to do it all over again, she must lower the price even lower.

Fortunately, there is A Yaoduo, Xue Yi thought happily.

A Yaoduo saw her inexplicably cute all the time, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xue, have you never bought anything? I heard that you are from Beijing. Are you rich?"

"No, no, no." Xue Yi repeatedly denied, saying: "I have bought things, I have experienced many things, I am very capable and able to endure hardships, that's right..." Xue Yi hesitated for a while before saying: "Our place They are all supermarkets with clearly marked prices, there is no such thing as bargaining, but I have heard, um, I have heard of it.”

"Oh." A Yaoduo seemed to understand, and said in her heart that it was really the overlord's terms, Mr. Xue was so simple, she must have been tricked by others.

"Everything is almost bought. Where shall we go next?" A Yaoduo asked.

"Go to the photo studio, do you know where there is a photo studio and a post office?" Xue Yi has been in Miao Village for more than a month, took a lot of photos, and wrote two travel notes, intending to send them to newspapers and magazines in the province for trial. Try, if you can hire, it is also an income.

"I know, just walk through this street." A Yaoduo took Xue over, saw that she had taken a lot of landscape photos, as well as photos of Adeihua and Xiao Lihua, and was busy looking for her own.

Xue Yi has been out of state since seeing her, and there is no picture of her in the camera.

"Why not mine?" Ayaoduo asked aggrievedly.

"I, I..." I really don't know how to explain this, "I ran out of film that day, so...you, don't cry, I will take pictures for you, I will take pictures for you, and I will take pictures for you now."

"But I didn't come in that suit."

"It's okay, it's okay, you look good in whatever you wear!" Anyway, the photos won't be available until tomorrow, so Xue Yi simply took pictures of her on the street.

For the convenience of loading things, the two each carried a basket on their backs, and they dressed more casually, but Ayaoduo's slender waist and long legs really looked good in anything.

Xue Yi pressed the shutter and took several consecutive shots, "Okay, let's change the action."

"Teacher, what other poses do you think?" It's not so convenient to take pictures these days, and Ayaoduo doesn't know how to pose after a few poses.

Xue Yi saw that she was very cute when she tilted her neck and thought hard, and she felt mischievous, "Come on, listen to me, look at the camera, poke your face with your hand, poke your cheek with your right index finger, don't poke so hard... get closer to the camera , come closer."

"Is it like this? Like this? Like this?" A Yaoduo didn't know that poking her face with her hands was a cute gesture, and poked a small dimple on her cheek with her slender fingers. Hearing what Xue Yi said was wrong, she turned her head to the left and right, and her right hand Poking up and down and asking, "Is that so? Is it like this? Or is it like this?" It seems to be saying, "I'm so cute, or am I so cute?"

"No, when you poke your face, lightly poke it, don't poke it into the flesh, yay, it's dimpled." Xue Yi put down the camera, really wanted to say stop being cute, you are the cutest, okay, heaven You are the cutest thing in the world.

But look at the barrage: [Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm calling the police. ][Yes, yes, you are so cute, so cute. ][The first time I saw someone poke their face to show off their cuteness, it was so cute! ]

Xue Yi is... calm, after all, I am not the only one who finds it cute.
