Farmer's ancient daily life
Chapter 48
After all, there was another strange silence between the two of them.
Fortunately, the two were silent for a short time, and Xiao Er quickly brought over the food he just ordered: "Please, sir!"
.........
After leaving the restaurant, Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin had a full stomach, so they were more leisurely to go shopping.
I have been to the town market many times, but never have I come at such a leisurely and abundant time.During the daytime on weekdays, people are always so busy that they don't necessarily respond to calling people's names.
But at this moment, every household has relaxed a lot. When the men come back from work, they take their children to play at the gate of the courtyard, watching how happy they are.
Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin gradually slowed down, and finally began to look at the small stalls on the street.
When they set up stalls here during the day, they didn't think there was anything interesting to shop around here. Now, from a different angle, they enjoyed a little bit of fun.
"A Duqin, come and take a look." Fang Mingfeng stopped in front of a small stall, and said to him, "I remember that Uncle seemed very interested in this earlier, why don't you buy one back?"
A Duqin looked at the various pipes on the stall, and asked, "Uncle...are you interested in this?"
"That's not it," Fang Mingfeng picked up a good-looking one, and said, "Hey, you don't know, when I came to the market with my uncle, I saw him often looking at the cigarette poles on the roadside stalls. Uncle should like it, right?"
"Since uncle likes it, then buy it." Although he didn't know why uncle would like this kind of thing, Fang Mingfeng wanted to buy it for uncle, so he would buy it.
Fang Mingfeng got the affirmation, holding the cigarette stick he had hoped for in his hand, and asked happily: "Boss, how much is this?"
The person who set up the stall was an old man, his eyes were dim and he couldn't see clearly. At this moment, Fang Mingfeng said, "What? Let me see which one it is... this twenty-sentence."
Afraid that the young customers in front of him would think it was expensive, the old man hurriedly explained: "This is the best one in my stall. It took me a long time to make it. It is because the price is too high that it has been kept until now."
Fang Mingfeng nodded to express his understanding. The quality of the one in his hand is really good. It is smooth and delicate, obviously it has been polished a lot.Although Fang Mingfeng didn't know much about the other parts, it didn't affect him thinking that this was a good item, and the price of twenty coins was acceptable.
He turned his head and said to A Duqin: "He said twenty words, is that okay?"
A Duqin said in surprise: "Of course." After all, Fang Mingfeng earned the money, so of course he can spend it as he pleases.
Immediately, Fang Mingfeng said embarrassingly: "Then can you give me twenty coins? All the silver is with you."
Dazed for a moment, A Duqin realized instantly that the wooden box containing the silver was kept here!A little annoyed, he took out a cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Fang Mingfeng: "It's all here, you better take it."
Fang Mingfeng took it, counted twenty coins from it to the old man, and then returned the money bag to him: "You keep it for me."
Unable to shirk, Aduqin finally continued to keep the silver.The old man looked at the two with a smile on his side, and said after they left, "These two are really interesting."
After walking around the town market again, the two finally took the donkey and went home.
After arriving home, it was almost dark, and finally had a time to rest. Before Fang Mingfeng had time to enter the room for a rest, Uncle Fang called him over.
Uncle Fang confirmed that A Duqin was not here, so he turned around and closed the door, sat on the couch with Fang Mingfeng, hesitantly said: "You are not too young now..."
Hearing the familiar beginning, Fang Mingfeng's eyelids twitched, and he felt an ominous premonition: "What?"
As if thinking about it for a long time, Uncle Fang said slowly: "Most of the people around your age here have already married and established businesses. You are almost seventeen now, what do you think? Is there a girl or brother you like? "
Uncle Ah talked more and more, and Fang Mingfeng also understood what this familiar tone was - isn't this the tone and sentence that the elders often use when urging marriage?
He didn't speak, but uncle said again: "You are not young, if you like it, please let me know, so I can help you find out about it."
In fact, Uncle is more interested in Aduqin. After all, he has witnessed the character and character of the other party. In Uncle's heart, he is a good boy. It would be even better if he could stay at home.
However, he also deeply understands that the younger generation cannot be forced, after all, it is a matter of a lifetime, and this matter of marriage cannot be taken lightly.
When I picked up Aduqin just now, my uncle actually had selfish intentions in keeping Aduqin.At that time, the family was poor, and he had to save every meal. He never imagined that he would have such a leisurely life now. At that moment, he just thought that he picked up a little brother for nothing, and he just happened to be able to marry Ming Feng.In this way, there is no need to worry about not having enough money to marry him.
Now, uncle feels that if the two children have no intentions, they can't force it. Now that life is much richer than before, if A Duqin wants to leave and go back outside the customs, then he will not stop him.
Sighing deeply, uncle said inadvertently: "It would be great if you could get married sooner. When you get married and have children, our family will be much more lively."
After hearing these words, Fang Mingfeng said with a smile: "Uncle, you think I'm too quiet at home? Then I'll find more things to do in the future, so that I won't be able to relax when the house is so noisy."
As he said that, Fang Mingfeng suddenly remembered something, got up and went out, and came back not long after, holding a cigarette stick in his hand, and said to Uncle A: "Uncle A, I remember you wanted this thing earlier, it happened to be I'm free today, so I'll go and buy it for you with A Duqin, let's see how it goes?"
Uncle's heart became sour in an instant. After decades of living, it is a good thing for him to have such a caring junior in the rest of his life. Uncle grinned: "Okay, very good!"
Although he doesn't smoke, he wants what other old men want!Uncle Fang touched the stem of the pipe, smiling from ear to ear.
With such an interruption, he immediately forgot what happened just now, and began to rarity for fresh cigarettes.
After Fang Mingfeng left Uncle's house, he just wanted to go back to his own room to rest, when he saw Fang Lili slipping in from the door of A Duqin's room, his furtive fox eyes rolling around, not knowing what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Fang Mingfeng made a big stride, scooped up Fang Lili, and scolded: "What are you going to do now? You don't want any of your sons?"
Fang Lili's cub has now grown into a face exactly like his. Every time he sees this row of neat and identical square faces and squints his eyes, especially when squatting in a row to beg for food, he feels that he had It was a mistake for Fang Lili to stay!
The fox narrowed his eyes and ignored him.
Fang Mingfeng was about to say a few more words when he saw A Duqin coming out of the room and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
"..."
Fang Mingfeng was speechless for a moment, hesitantly said: "Call, scold Fang Lili?"
Fang Lili: "Hey!"
Being interrupted by Fang Lili, the two immediately remembered that they still had things to do, Fang Mingfeng stammered, "I, I'll go feed the cattle and sheep!"
After all, he turned around and ran away without a trace.
Seeing his flustered and bewildered back, A Duqin couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling, and went to the kitchen to cook dinner for the family after a while.
So after this day, Fang Mingfeng began to wander around in front of A Duqin intentionally or unintentionally, and shook his head when he asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Just when A Duqin was getting used to him often wandering around under his nose, this morning, Fang Mingfeng cleaned himself up, and after talking to his family, he went to the town market alone.
He came to look for Zhang Erlang this time.It has been two or three days since the last time he went to the town market, these few days he has already processed all the melons and fruits left at home, and now he is going to have a detailed talk with Zhang Erlang.
The time agreed by the two of them was coming soon, Fang Mingfeng quickly quickened his pace, and hurried to the alley in Zhenji.
Zhang Erlang was waiting anxiously at this time, he finally got such a well-paid job, even if it was next year, but if he could not settle down for a moment, he would be worried for a moment.
Fang Mingfeng saw Zhang Erlang from a long distance away, and hurriedly greeted him: "Second Brother Zhang!"
"You're here?!" Zhang Erlang waited for someone, and said happily: "Let's go, let's talk inside!"
"it is good."
The two walked all the way to the yard of Zhang Erlang's house.The courtyard of Zhang Erlang's house is neither big nor small, but the two houses are old.There are some green vegetables planted outside the house, and it is very gratifying to look green.
Zhang Erlang's husband is not very old, he looks about in his teens or twenties. He is sitting in the main room working at this time. Seeing the two of them coming, he got up to say hello to Fang Mingfeng: "If you have something to say, I will Go to work in the house over there, you are busy."
"Thank you Mrs. Zhang."
After Zhang Erlang's husband left, Fang Mingfeng began to discuss the salary issue with Zhang Erlang.
"Second brother Zhang, that's what I think. If you take melons and fruits from me in the coming year, I will hire you to do the work, but we don't have a fixed salary. In addition to the basic salary of half a tael per month, if you can bring If a batch is sold out, I will give you five melons and a commission of two cents, how about it?"
A melon is four to five catties, and if you sell five, you will get two cents. In addition to the basic salary given by Fang Mingfeng, Zhang Erlang thought in his heart that this calculation is fine, as long as he works hard, it is even cheaper than taking melons. Dead wage earns more.
Without much hesitation, Zhang Erlang agreed, and said jokingly: "Then I'll build a good relationship with the big guys first, and sell melons to them in the next year!"
After explaining these things clearly, Fang Mingfeng and Zhang Erlang talked about how to supply and how to pick up the goods.It was already noon when the two discussed and came up with an agreement.
The sun was shining outside, Zhang Erlang enthusiastically left him to eat at home, and said to his husband: "It's so easy for us to have a guest, but there is nothing to eat, you go and buy some food, I can entertain the guests .”
Zhang Fulang went out to buy food, but Fang Mingfeng began to look at Zhang Erlang's physique.
Under Fang Mingfeng's wandering gaze, Zhang Erlang said, "What are you looking at me for?"
Fang Mingfeng said earnestly: "Second brother Zhang, let me remind you first, remember to exercise during this time, being a shopkeeper is hard work."

Fortunately, the two were silent for a short time, and Xiao Er quickly brought over the food he just ordered: "Please, sir!"
