    For the next two days, Li Qingshan still went out to work during the day, and came back in the evening to work in the fields, and even took time to go to Zhuzhuang in between. Both the cow and the piglets that were slaughtered were growing well, and they made an appointment with Zhu Xingyou to go to slaughter another batch of piglets in twenty.

This morning, after Li Qingshan went out.

Cong Chunhua carried a small kang table, Liu Yu brought the rice cake candy made this morning in a basket, and a basket for arranging rice cake candy, Li Lerong carried three horses on his back, and the three of them went to Yangzhuang together.

When they arrived at the boundary, they paid a penny for the stall rent. Cong Chunhua put down the small kang table, Liu Yu put the basket on the small kang table, and placed the rice flower candies that had already been cut into the same size in the basket.

As soon as people came to the snack street, Cong Chunhua yelled, "Sell rice cake candy, rice cake candy, sweet, crispy and fragrant rice cake candy."

Liu Yu looked at her, slightly distressed, he seemed unable to shout out.

Li Lerong held his chin and said, "Second Aunt is amazing."

He was already considered a very bold and naughty little brother, but it was a bit embarrassing to call him that.

Soon, a woman brought the doll to the stall, "How do you sell it?"

Liu Yu hurriedly greeted, "Twenty cents a piece."

The woman criticized, "It's made of corn, two cents is too expensive. "

Actually, she knew that a sugar cake cost two cents, and this one was as big as a sugar cake, but thicker than that, and anything dipped in sugar was expensive. But she still wanted to pick a few thorns to express her displeasure.

Liu Yu smiled and explained: "This rice is fried with oil, and a lot of sugar is added, so it's very sweet."

He was so kind, and the woman couldn't say anything more, so she bought a piece for the child for two cents.

The child took a bite, it was crunchy, he squinted his eyes, and smiled happily, "Mom, it's very sweet." When he was far away, he could

hear the child asking his mother to taste it, and his mother slapped his ass in turn. The voice of slap saying that his dead child will waste money.

A catty of corn is made and cut for 20 yuan, two yuan for one yuan, and brown sugar, oil, firewood, and stall fees are removed. If you can sell a catty, you can earn more than 20 yuan.

After opening, Liu Yu's confidence increased greatly, and she also tried to shout.

Not only children, but boys and girls as old as Li Lerong also love to buy snacks. The snacks on the street are still the same old ones, but a new one finally came out today. I heard that the taste is not bad, but it sells fast.

At Sishi, when it became warmer outside and people rushed to the streets to have fun, all the 50 yuan Liu Yu brought was sold out in a short time.

The three of them happily closed the stall, and Liu Yu spent the money he had just earned to cut two feet of purple cloth and two feet of black cloth. The lint at home made thick cotton coats and cotton shoes for him and grandma, and there were some leftovers. He wanted to cut cloth to make a pair of cotton shoes and cotton socks for Cong Chunhua and Li Qingshan.

Liu Yu picked another apricot-colored hair tie and gave it to Li Lerong.

Li Lerong is so beautiful.

This time I will not pay the rest of the money, I have to ask Li Qingshan to bring some brown sugar from the city tomorrow, and I have to cut some silk cloth back.

Li Qingshan raped the piglets of Zhu Xing's family, and went to join in the fun to see him hold hands, and one family also invited him to the door. One piglet costs eight cents, and there are three litters of forty piglets, and you can get three hundred and twenty yuan in one go. Besides, the butchers are fat and oily, and it is really profitable to do it!

At noon, Li Qingshan returned home, and gave Liu Yu the bamboo basket containing copper coins, and picked it up heavily, Liu Yu said: "So much?"

Last time he also brought two hundred and forty coins, this time he weighed it More than last time.

Li Qingshan nodded, "Three hundred and twenty Wen."

Liu Yu smiled slightly, and told Li Qingshan what he earned from selling rice cracker candy in the street today.

The corners of Li Qingshan's lips curled up a little bit, not because Liu Yu made money, but because Liu Yu finally took the initiative to tell him about himself.

After eating, Li Qingshan went down to the field and continued to work. Cong Chunhua picked up washed and sun-dried hemp seeds, a total of eight catties, and took them to the oil workshop in the next village for a catty and a half of oil, which was enough to last for a while.

The willow fish embroidered handkerchief was important, so Cong Chunhua didn't ask him to do other work. She and Mrs. Guan went to the field to cut grass or get some fallen leaves and pile them into the manure pit to make green manure. It's been a long time, and it's almost done now.

The three-foot silk cloth and three-foot cotton cloth that Liuyuqiu Society cut that day, has now embroidered six silk handkerchiefs and two cotton handkerchiefs, and he plans to ask Li Qingshan to bring them to the county town to sell tomorrow, maybe it will still be possible even if the sun is still early today. Embroider one more.

...

The sky was unsatisfactory, and it rained for two consecutive days. Although it is not big, it always makes people feel that everything is damp and the whole body is not strong.

Liu Yu also fell ill in this autumn rain.

He caught wind and cold, was weak all over, and had a severe headache.

There are also doctors near Taoyuan Village, but they are not at the same level. Li Qingshan braved the rain to invite someone to come, and prescribed two doses of medicine, boiled and drank, but nothing helped.

Li Qingshan looked at the rain that was getting heavier and heavier, and he was really anxious, hoping that the rain would stop soon, so that he could take Liu Yu to the medical clinic in the county town to have a look.

He was anxious, so he couldn't sit still, he walked up and down the house, and had to hold the door to look out from time to time.

Liu Yu had a severe headache and was really annoyed. She endured it again and again, and said angrily: "Can you stop walking around all the time!" "My fault!

" Li Qingshan sat back on the bed and helped Liu Yu. Yu tucked the corner of the quilt, "Go to sleep, I promise you won't make any noise this time."

He was too careful, Liu Yu regretted a little, "I..."

"I understand, go to sleep." Li Qingshan comforted him with a smile, cut off his words.

Liu Yu hesitated to speak, and finally turned sideways.

After a long while, Liu Yu turned over and looked at Li Qingshan, Li Qingshan was startled, and was thinking about whether he had made any movement just now, when Liu Yu moved his body inside, and said softly: "You come up." Li Qingshan was puzzled

.

Liu Yu half-cast his eyes and said: "Sleep with me for a while."

Li Qingshan obediently took off his coat and got on the bed. As soon as he lay down, Liu Yu turned sideways and plunged into his arms, holding him in his arms. A corner of the clothes said: "Just now... I'm sorry."

Li Qingshan smiled and touched his earlobe, "How can you be so polite between husband and wife."

Liu Yu looked up at Li Qingshan, smiled lightly, and then kissed Li Qingshan's chest Rubbing lightly, the hand holding the clothes also became resting on the waist.

His embrace was really warm, and Liu Yu's headache was slightly relieved.

Li Qingshan's warm big hands gently pressed Liu Yu's temples, and Liu Yu gradually fell asleep.

When he woke up again, the rain outside was still pattering, but the bed was extremely warm because of Li Qingshan, Liu Yu moved comfortably.

Li Qingshan looked down and saw that he had woken up, and asked: "Is it better?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

Li Qingshan was very happy, and changed from sitting on the bed to lying down, looking at Liu Yu at the same level , gently touched his temples, with pity in his eyes.

Liu Yu was a little embarrassed, lowered her eyes, avoiding Li Qingshan's sight.

Li Qingshan hugged Liu Yu, rubbed his chin on Liu Yu's hair affectionately, and asked him: "Are you hungry?"

Liu Yu really had no appetite, so he shook his head.

Li Qingshan coaxed him: "How much to eat? I didn't eat much last night, if you continue to be hungry like this, grandma will be worried."

Thinking of grandma, Liu Yu finally agreed.

Li Qingshan went out and brought a bowl of porridge boiled out of rice oil, and a small dish of sour radish.

The porridge is thick and fragrant, and the sour radish is refreshing and appetizing. Liu Yu unknowingly uses up a bowl of porridge.

"Do you still want to drink?"

Liu Yu shook his head, Li Qingshan sent the bowl out, reported the letter to Cong Chunhua and Mrs. Guan, and then went back to the house to accompany Liu Yu.

There is always a lot of work at home, except for the last time it rained, the two of them seldom cuddled together quietly during the day.

Liu Yu has slept for too long, always lying down is uncomfortable, Li Qingshan is now leaning on the two big wooden boxes stacked on top of the bed, and asked Liu Yu to lean on him.

Li Qingshan squeezed Liu Yu's fingers and said: "I see you have been embroidering handkerchiefs recently, aren't you tired?"

Liu Yu understood what he meant, and quickly said: "I don't get cold because of embroidering handkerchiefs."

It was raining suddenly when he got up early that day. He was agitated by the rain in order to pack the things at home.

"I understand." Li Qingshan continued: "But I heard from my mother that grandma's eyes are not very good now, because she used to embroider too much." After a long silence, Liu Yu said sullenly: "

Grandma is all because of me."

They are alone and live on each other, with few land under their names, and there are many mothers in the south. In order to earn food, grandma can only work day and night.

Li Qingshan waited quietly for a while, but didn't hear Liu Yu's next words, knowing that he still didn't want to say anything, Li Qingshan didn't ask any more, and instead said: "So, I think you should embroider less, so as not to hurt your eyes in the future "

After pondering for a while, Liu Yu said: "Then I will only embroider fifteen silk handkerchiefs a month from now on."

After successfully persuading Liu Yu, Li Qingshan was very happy, hugged her even tighter, and rubbed his cheek against Liu Yu's head After a while, he discussed with him about trying to buy a pig and sell it.

Everything has to have a beginning, and the more than one to seven hundred coins in his hand was also earned by Li Qingshan, Liu Yu had no objection, just quietly listened to him talk about some plans, and added a few points to Li Qingshan himself What was not mentioned, he also said that he would sew a big bag for copper coins.

The two talked about these daily routines and trivial matters in detail, not talking about love, but there was a warmth flowing silently.

The next day, because it had rained for two consecutive days and the outside was extremely muddy, Li Qingshan didn't go to the county to look for a job.

When he got up early, Li Qingshan saw that Liuyu's wind and cold had improved a lot, and felt that the doctor in the next village seemed to be useful, so he went there to get three doses of medicine.

Liu Yu knew the discomfort of being sick, so she obediently took the medicine, but her appetite was not very good, so she seldom used it for food.

After the rain, Li Qingshan couldn't do the mud work, so Li Qingshan went to collect firewood for a day, it doesn't matter if it is wet now, it can be used after drying in the yard later, stock up more for the winter.

Liu Yu is still ill, and the family rests early after dark.

But in the middle of the night, he was awakened by a knock on the door.
