There are only two times when Luojiang County is the busiest, one is after the autumn harvest, and the other is before the Chinese New Year.
In previous years, the hustle and bustle after the autumn harvest may be postponed until the Double Ninth Festival. After all, after the grain is harvested, tax hikes have to be prepared.
But this year there is no tax, and the adjustment has been moderately reduced, so everyone is free before the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Some villages, like Qili Village, decided to plant winter wheat, and even took advantage of the gap in the middle to go to the county town.
Therefore, the street was very lively, and they were not bad when they came to shop more than years ago, so Friday Lang and Saturday Lang walked forward with Man Bao in the middle.
As for the others, of course they are their own parents.
Zhou Zhoulang knew that today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, so the business must be very good, how could he give up this opportunity to make money
Zhou Dalang was also reluctant, so they soaked twice as many beans last night, and got up early in the morning to grind the beans to make tofu.
Because of the large number of people entering the city, the goods that the old Zhou family brought into the city today were more than three times the usual amount.
County magistrate Fu was so generous that he notified the city gate that the entry fee would be waived today, and anyone who entered the city could enter without any weapons, free of charge!
There are a lot of people going into the city today, so naturally there are also a lot of sellers. Fortunately, the bastard who has been patrolling the streets collecting protection fees deliberately left the place he often occupies for him after eating countless tofu from Zhou Zhoulang.
He was so happy that Zhou Zhoulang, who came late because he brought a lot of things and brought a lot of people, was so happy that he directly picked up three or four yuan of big tofu and gave it to the other party, of course, there was also a protection fee.
Putting things on the booth one by one, Zhou Zhoulang looked up and saw that his family had filled up the seats in front of the booth, and immediately waved his hands in distaste: "Why do you go, I'll just come here."
Zhou Dalang said: "I'll go with you and let the third child take the children to play."
Xiaoqian said to Zhou Zhoulang: "It's rare for younger brothers and sisters to come to the county town once. You can take four heads and go to Jishitang to have a look. It's only a matter of ten pennies."
Ever since Mrs. He saw Mrs. Chen's dystocia, she had been a little uneasy. Mrs. Qian also knew about her heart disease. It was rare for her to come to the county, so she might as well go to the doctor to have a look.
Zhou Zhoulang naturally agreed, and hugged Sitou in his arms, protecting He Shi to the pharmacy.
Xiaoqian and Feng decided to take the rest of the children for a walk together. They didn't want to buy any expensive things, but they needed to add some needles and threads in their house.
It would be even better if you can get some rags that the other party doesn't want in the cloth shop.
Zhou Xi was naturally with them.
They brought a lot of children, but Datou Daya and Ertou Erya often came to the county, and they were more familiar than their own mothers.
In addition, they can also help to look after their younger siblings, so the older ones will take care of the younger ones, and the adults will keep an eye on them, and everything will be fine.
Everyone discussed it properly and walked away.
The three of Xiaoqian and the others took away a bunch of children in one move, and the booth was quite empty in no time.
The customers who were attracted by the traffic here immediately leaned over and asked, "What are you selling so lively?"
Tuesday Lang immediately greeted him warmly, "All kinds of vegetables, as well as tofu, live fish and fried small fish."
Zhou Zhoulang took a wooden bucket, motioned the customers to look at the live fish inside, and said cheerfully: "They were all fished from the river yesterday, and they were bred for a night. But Mid-Autumn Festival, buy one and go back and taste it?"
The customer who just wanted to buy some vegetables hesitated for a while and asked, "How much is a catty?"
"Not expensive, not expensive, ten cents a catty, cheaper than pork, often eat fish and live longer!"
"Is there any basis for this statement?"
"Of course there is, a person who is very capable and has read a lot of books said." - His Yaomei Manbao.
Zhou Zhou Lang found that he couldn't get his hands in, so he looked at Man Bao and saw that she was stealing small fish from a basin to eat, so he held Fang's hand speechlessly and said: "Let's go, let's go shopping by ourselves. "
Fang hesitated, "Aren't we going to stay and help?"
"Big brother and second brother are fine, don't worry, my second brother has set up a stall for so many years, and there are not enough customers to greet him."
Man Bao not only eats it himself, but also digs it out for the fifth and sixth brothers to eat.
Friday Lang and Saturday Lang looked around, and they ate one when Man Bao fed them, and they didn't pay attention to them until Zhou Dalang and Tuesday Lang saw off two more groups of guests.
Zhou Zhou Lang reached out to pat Man Bao's hand, took a small dried leaf and wrapped some small fish larvae, handed it to her and said, "Hurry up and play, we have to go back early today."
Man Bao took it happily, and left with his fifth and sixth brothers contentedly.
They didn't immediately go to play with Miss Fu Er, but started shopping in the street first.
Early this morning, Man Bao gave them 20 Wen each from the savings of the fifth brother and the sixth brother, and then she decided to follow them to eat the big family.
They were in a hurry to come out in the morning, and each only ate a bowl of porridge and bean curd.
After walking all the way, Man Bao felt that he was already hungry, let alone Wu Lang and Liu Lang, otherwise they wouldn't have secretly picked up the little fish to eat.
So Man Bao couldn't move as soon as he got to a wonton stand.
Zhou Wulang also swallowed, and then stepped forward to ask the price, "How much is a bowl of wonton?"
It was not yet noon, and there were not many people eating in front of the wonton stall at this time, so the stall owner had time to look at the three children and said with a smile: "Six yuan a bowl."
Liu Liulang lowered his voice and said, "It's so expensive, it used to be five cents."
Although he has never eaten it, he often comes to the county to sell candy, and he always sees people eating it, and he wants to eat it more than once.
When the stall owner heard it, he explained: "It's cheap. In May and June, we could get ten yuan a bowl. Now that the autumn harvest is over, the price of grain is still rising. We don't earn six yuan a bowl." something."
Man Bao thinks so too, recently their food is a bit more expensive than usual.
Of course Wu Wulang and Saturday Lang knew about it, so they hesitated for a moment and said, "Give us three bowls, no, two bowls."
Wu Wulang said to Man Bao: "Let's eat less, what if we see delicious food again later?"
Man Bao felt that Fifth Brother was right, so he nodded in response.
*** took it for granted, smiled and cooked two bowls of wontons for them, and gave them an extra bowl.
Man Bao happily thanked him, held an empty bowl and sat aside, waiting for the two brothers to share the food with her.
Fu Wenyun pushed open the window facing the street, looked down and saw her.
There is no way, Man Bao is white, tender, and round, and it is particularly conspicuous sitting among a group of dark country people.
Fu Wenyun couldn't help showing a smile, turned her head and said to Qiuyue, "Hurry up and ask Manbao to come up."
