Chapter 15: Rong Yu's new shoes

Views:

The two of them rode bicycles to the house, and Rong's father and mother had already returned. Rong's father was pouring water to soak the grain to grow sprouts. After a week, the seedlings could be raised, and then transplanted rice seedlings. Rong's mother was cooking dinner in the kitchen.

Rong Yao was already soaking saltpeter, and he packed a lot of saltpeter in plastic bags. When he saw the two of them turned back, he ran over, "How much sugar did you buy? I picked up all the red beans and mung beans, and I will soak them later in the morning. Get up and be able to boil."

"There are two yuan left, use them all." Ying Xun replied.

"Ah, two yuan can buy a lot, why not buy them all? We will definitely sell a lot tomorrow." Rong Yao poked at the sugar in the bag, about two catties.

"After it's sold out tomorrow, just buy it in the town." Ying Xun said, the remaining two yuan was reserved for Rong Yu to buy snacks, so he definitely couldn't spend all of it.

"That's right." Rong Yao nodded and counted with his fingers: "One catty of sugar is one eight yuan, two catties is three yuan six. One catty of sugar can be boiled, it can be boiled..."

"Can this be calculated?" Rong Yu approached and asked curiously.

"Two ladles of water and half a catty of mung beans, a big spoonful of sugar, forget it!" Mother Rong smiled when she heard the conversation between the two in the kitchen, with satisfaction in her eyes, it was great that all three children were there.

"When you go into business, do you want Dad to follow you on the first day?" Dad Rong asked enthusiastically. Yaoyao and Xiao Xun knew that their family was poor since they were young, so they went up to the mountain to pick mushrooms, wild vegetables and wild vegetables to sell on Zhenjiang from time to time. You can also earn some pocket money if you share a dime. If you get older, Xiao Xun will learn how to weave dustpans and frames, and you can earn more. This time, you want to buy sugar and spend all your savings.

But Rong's father didn't think about the subsidy either. If the child wants it, he will naturally ask. If he doesn't ask, it means he can solve it.

"Dad, it's not the first time we've been to town. I, hey, Rong Rong, have you bought new shoes?" Rong Yao glanced at the black slippers on Rong Yu's feet, "They look pretty."

Even though he said that, Rong Yao felt a little sad, thinking that Rong Yu came to their house on the first day, wearing clean white sneakers, wearing a beautiful red LOGO, white casual clothes, and a handsome face, he was a dignified woman. little boy.

The children of the best families in the town were compared to the dust by him, but now they are just like them.

"Yeah!" Rong Yu smiled, kicking the ground uncomfortably, "Ying Xun bought it."

"Good eyesight." Rong Yao praised.

Everything was ready, everyone went to bed early at night, because they needed too much ice, all three rooms used barreled nitrate to make ice, and the weather at night was not as hot as during the day, so everyone simply went back to sleep.

Rong Yu was a little excited, this was his first time doing business, thinking that he would make money tomorrow, his adrenaline surged, he couldn't sleep no matter what, he tossed and turned.

"Aren't you sleepy?" Ying Xun said helplessly. In the past, this person would shrink in when he went to bed, as if he had bacteria.

"Hmm!" Rong Yu responded with restrained pleasure in his tone. Pulling up the quilt, covering her eyes and looking at the dark sky above, "I haven't made any money myself yet!"

As soon as the words came out, Ying Xun's heart ached as if he was about to collapse. Thinking of what he had heard about Rong Yu from that person in his previous life, his body couldn't help shaking slightly, and he gritted his teeth to prevent himself from touching this person impulsively.

He doesn't ask for anything in this life, as long as Rongrong grows up well and is happy, he doesn't ask for anything.

"You said, can you make money?" Rong Yu whispered, with uncertainty and worry.

"If you can make money, go to sleep!" Ying Xun kept his voice as calm as possible.

"Hmm!" Rong Yu smiled silently at the darkness and closed his eyes.

The next day, when the rooster crowed, Ying Xun got up, while Rong Yu was still sleeping, and the sound of his breathing was reassuring.

The chickens in the countryside usually crow at around 4:50, and after 5:00, they crow more vigorously, and the chickens in one family crow, and the chickens in other families crow too, one after another. Fortunately, the Rong family is a little far away from other families, so there is no such trouble.

Ying Xun got dark, carefully opened the door, closed it, and opened the door of the small hall, Rong Yao was squatting by the well to wash, when he heard the voice, he turned his head and said "Good morning".

"Morning." Ying Xun replied.

Open the door of the small hall, come out with the toiletries by the faint light, close the door of the small hall again, and join the washing team by the well.

"Xiao Yu still awake?" Rong Yao asked, spitting.

"Let him sleep for a while, we'll call him after we cook mung bean syrup."

"Hee hee, it's a good thing you're back."

"certainly."

"Zi Lian," Rong Yao grinned sullenly, "Actually, after Rong Yu came back, I was quite worried about him. When he ran away, I also thought it would be best for him to run away."

"It's not that the family is bad, but, how should I put it, feel sorry for him."

"I know." Ying Xun whispered.

"You don't know, after he escaped and came back, he got up very early every day. He got up as soon as the rooster crowed, and ran out rubbing his eyes. He looked like he wanted to sleep but didn't dare to sleep. He was very wronged, but he insisted on it. I thought others couldn't see it." Rong Yao blinked, blinking back the sourness, "But after you came back, he seemed to relax a lot, and he slept a lot when he was late."

Rong Yao washed his face and stood up holding his things.

"Really?" Ying Xun's eyes lit up.

No matter how restrained he is, Rong Yao, who grew up with him, can tell and nods.

From Rong Yao's point of view, Xiao Yu is still very dependent on Ying Xun, even if he doesn't know it, but there are many things that he will instinctively go to Ying Xun.

Sure enough, soon after hearing Ying Xun's low laugh, she was very happy, and it was the first time she heard it after seeing Ying Xun again.

The change of sons changed both Rong and Ying Xun, both of them were unhappy, especially during the few days when Ying Xun came back this time, she could clearly see something heavy in Ying Xun's heart. When paying attention, the eyes looking at him are very deep, with happiness, worry, and bottomless sadness.

Rong Yao went to cook mung bean candy, and Ying Xun went to feed the pigs and chickens. When he first came back, he was a bit of a novice, but fortunately, everyone didn't pay much attention to it and didn't notice it. When he first came back, he was not used to it. After all, he has been in the mall for decades, and he has already been far away from these things, but after a few more days, he has regained his feeling.

He used to look at these chickens and pigs as money, but now he sees these chickens and pigs as meat, thinking of quickly feeding the pigs and slaughtering them so that Rong Rong can have a big meal, so he doesn't have to bear it any longer. As for the chickens, the eggs that Rong and occasionally eat now were laid by them.

So compared to his previous life, he is more affectionate to these pigs and chickens, grows faster and gives birth faster.

Ying Xun finished these things and started to collect ice. Nitrate ice cannot be eaten directly, but water can only be put in a bottle, and cold water is added to make ice. One day and one night passed, all the pots and jars in the house were used, and the knocked out was less than ten catties. There are still too few things in the house that can hold ice.

The ice is easy to melt in summer, and a layer of quilt is added outside the foam box to ensure that it will not melt for a day.

The two of them were busy, they were still in a dream and fell asleep, then woke up suddenly, only to realize that it was already dawn outside, and Ying Xun was also on the bed, panic flashed in their eyes, and they rolled out of bed, barefoot run outside.

One door after another opened, and ran into the yard, quietly.
