He had a day off that day, and Su Qingbai went to the county the next day as usual.
Because he took a day off yesterday and didn't make any money, Su Qingbai didn't listen to Jiang Mao's advice and recited less, on the contrary, he carried more than last time. It will be like this for the next few days, so I must make up for yesterday's.
He stopped for a rest and wiped off his sweat. He had slowly adapted to this kind of life. Thinking that there were not many vegetables in the field, and that he was about to run out of supplies, and that he had to go back to plant some vegetables as soon as possible after selling them, Su Qingbaifu hurried on his way again.
Jiang Mao had been waiting there early in the morning, when he saw that Su Qingbai's back was hunched, his face turned dark all of a sudden, he handed the breakfast he had prepared to Su Qingbai, took Su Qingbai's basket, and started yelling.
When it was sold out, he didn't say a word to Su Qingbai to express his dissatisfaction.
Su Qingbai was so thoughtless that he didn't notice at all. After noon, only one or two catties of vegetables were left. He hesitated again and again, and said: "Don't buy me breakfast tomorrow, you have paid me back the money I gave you, and you have paid a lot of money yourself." The meals Jiang Mao invited him to eat were more than he sold The food was returned to him these days.
"I said, I don't need that little money, so you don't have to pay it back." Jiang Mao pointed at him, "I haven't settled with you about the thirty-two catties of vegetables you carried today."
When it comes to this matter, Su Qingbai is also very entangled. If he owes money to others, and others say that he doesn't have to pay it back, he would like to be debt-free. But this person is Jiang Mao, if he really didn't return it, he would always feel like selling himself.
"I'm the man of the family, so I have to work hard to support my family." He really can't do anything about selling vegetables. At present, he doesn't have any skills, so he can only sell vegetables, and he's just started these days, if possible If so, he would like to order more dishes.
Glancing at Jiang Mao, Su Qingbai thought for a while, and said what was in his heart, "I also know what you are planning, but... that is completely impossible."
"Impossible?" Jiang Mao approached him, "Why is it impossible? Can't you try?"
Su Qingbai was afraid just thinking about it, "My father will kill me."
To be honest, in fact, he doesn't care if his future partner is a man or a woman. Before he gave birth to Su Cai Cai, he was not very developed, and all his energy was spent on the only two things: gambling and avoiding his father, and he hardly thought about women on weekdays.
Before giving birth to Su Caicai, Su Qingbai was quite self-aware. He knew that he would probably not be able to find a wife by himself, and could only rely on his father.
After giving birth to Su Caicai, Su Qingbai became even busier and had no time to think about it.
So at present, the only requirement for him to find a wife is that his father can like her.
As for Jiang Mao, just kidding, I must beat him to death.
Jiang Mao looked at Su Qingbai's look of being frightened by his father, and was speechless. He heard that Su Chengxiang was a gentle and kind person, and he was once a student in a department. He was the most gentle scholar, and he was also very gentle Speaking of courtesy, I haven't heard that he has a habit of beating people casually
Not mentioning Su Lingchuan's impression in Jiang Mao's mind, Jiang Mao heard what Su Qingbai said, so he asked him, "Then what if your father doesn't beat you?" Looking at Su Qingbai, Jiang Mao didn't care at all that this was in the vegetable market , he bent down and approached Su Qingbai, almost kissing Su Qingbai, and asked: "What about you? Regardless of your father's opinion, what do you think of me?"
Su Qingbai blushed, and said without hesitation, "Impossible!" How could his father not beat him up? Thinking back to his father's reaction when he found out that he had Su Caicai, he still remembered that he still felt like he was alive after a catastrophe.
As for the second question, Su Qingbai selectively ignored it. He glanced at the man who was always feeding him, and said, "I have something to do in the afternoon, so I'll go back first." Then he fled without a chance.
Jiang Mao looked at Su Qingbai's running figure, then at the two catties of vegetables left by Su Qingbai, and rubbed his temples with a headache. In the end he sighed helplessly, picked up the two catties of vegetables, and today he also tasted the vegetables grown by Su Qingbai.
When he got home and picked up Su Caicai, Su Qingbai remembered that he forgot to pay back half of Jiang Si's money today.
…
Lying on the bed at night, Su Qingbai looked at the roof and thought about Jiang Mao. He felt that he rejected Jiang Si. Jiang Si is a sensible person, so he should stop pestering him, right
Sure enough, Jiang Mao did not come the next day.
While Su Qingbai breathed a sigh of relief, his heart was inexplicably a little astringent, and he didn't want to come because he said so, and he didn't have the willpower.
Today is better than yesterday, forty-two catties, all sold by noon.
Su Qingbai rubbed his hungry and growling stomach, but he couldn't feel happy at all.
Today he brought thirty-two catties of vegetables to sell, and he was so tired that no one said anything about him.
For the next few days, that Jiang Si never appeared again.
Su Qingbai felt that Jiang Si didn't like the little money in his hand anyway, Jiang Si must have been rejected by him that day, seeing no hope, so he left directly.
Su Qingbai always knew that Jiang Si was not from this city.
Thinking of this possibility, Su Qingbai's heart was inexplicably empty. He didn't even know the specific information about Jiang Si, but he only knew that his name was Jiang Si.
This name didn't sound like his real name. He didn't have a good impression of Jiang Si at that time, and he didn't want to have too much interaction with him. Even though he knew that the name was a fake name, he didn't intend to ask.
Su Qingbai's heart shivered, he regretted it, if he knew it earlier, he would have asked him clearly, even if he only knew his name.
Now I only know that his surname is Jiang, and the world is big, will they have a chance to meet again
It is really hard to fight alone, and only Su Qingbai knows the pain and tiredness.
Slowly, his enthusiasm for selling vegetables passed, and every day he worked hard and was more tired. Every time, only when he saw the people waiting for him at home, Su Qingbai felt that it was all worth it. .
As soon as he got home that day, Su Qingbai threw himself on the kang, he had to catch up on sleep for a while, so he could plant vegetables and water the fields in the afternoon.
Another tiring day.
At night, when Su Qingbai came home, he found that the family members were still awake, and Su Caicai was being hugged by his mother and fed rice soup.
Su Caicai is now old enough to eat supplementary food, and the milk production period of the sheep at home is not long, so Su Qingbai discussed with his parents and decided to let Su Caicai gradually adapt to other foods, so that when the sheep stop producing milk, it will not suddenly After weaning, Su Caicai couldn't adapt.
"That's right." Su Lingchuan looked at Su Qingbai who couldn't hide the tiredness between his eyebrows, handed him a stool in distress, and asked him, "How is the vegetable sales these few days?"
In front of his parents, Su Qingbai didn't hide it any more, digging out the money he planned to return to Jiang Mao, he poured all the copper coins on the table.
Su Qingbai has not given up on paying back the money to Jiang Si. He divided the money into two halves and hid half of it.
Father Su looked at the copper plate in front of him. In fact, compared with the income of ordinary people in the village doing small jobs, it was not too little. But Su Qingbai spent too much energy on it, he was exhausted after returning from the town every day, and had to plant vegetables and water in the afternoon.
Su Lingchuan thought it was worthless to work so hard and earn so much money. He frowned and thought about it, and said, "It's too tiring. I'll go to your uncle's house tomorrow to see what light work he has. I'll introduce you to it." If you do it, it doesn’t matter if you pay less. Don’t sell vegetables tomorrow, although you can earn a lot, but if you wear yourself down for money, it’s not worth it.”
Hearing this, Su Qingbai stood up abruptly, and he smiled, "Father, I'm not tired, I'm not tired at all, I can do it." If I don't sell vegetables, I can't go to the county.
Su Lingchuan looked at him with a persistent face, a little uncomfortable, when did Su Qingbai be so obedient and motivated
Seeing that Su Qingbai couldn't be persuaded, Su Lingchuan had no choice but to compromise, "It's fine to go, but don't be too tired, plant less in the future, and sell less every day."
You know, Su Ni is also selling vegetables with him, but the little girl is not as embarrassed as Su Qingbai made herself, she only sells a little every day, returns home early, and often spends her free time with those little girls in the village children to play.
Su Qingbai nodded and agreed, but waited until the next day, Su Lingchuan was still sleeping when he left, no matter how many dishes he took Su Lingchuan would not know.
After selling the vegetables, Su Qingbai was not in a hurry to go back, he bought a sesame seed on the street.
After working for a long time, he hasn't relaxed for a long time, Su Qingbai's heart itch.
After thinking for a while, he asked the blunt uncle selling wontons who was familiar with him to help him watch the basket.
The uncle is a very enthusiastic person. Su Qingbai has been setting up a stall here for a while. He can see that Su Qingbai is really hardworking, and he persists until noon every day. So he had a good impression of Su Qingbai, and agreed without thinking about it.
Su Qingbai touched his pocket for the thirty-two Wen he earned today, and went to the casino familiarly.
But what he didn't notice was that someone who was rushing to look for him not far away saw him leave and also chased after him.
Walking to the front of the casino, Su Qingbai glanced at the plaque and told himself that he only played once, and he just relaxed occasionally after working for a long time.
Su Qingbai didn't have much money with him, only thirty-two coins, so he didn't dare to play too much, and walked directly to the table with ragged clothes as soon as he entered.
Su Qingbai is a straightforward person, he quickly paid out to place a bet, and then stared nervously.
Suddenly, he was tapped on the shoulder.
Su Qingbai was too involved, so he didn't take it seriously, he only thought that the place was too chaotic, someone accidentally bumped into him.
No, he was patted on the shoulder again. Su Qingbai looked back impatiently. The moment he saw the other party, the impatience on his face suddenly turned into surprise, "Jiang Si, why are you here? You didn't leave?"
Jiang Mao looked at him with a sneer, "I haven't seen you for a few days, you are very capable."
