《[BL] Raising children in Ancient County Town》Chapter 6
Advertisement
Qiao Shen was eager to get rich, and talked to Qi Shuo about his thoughts.
"The taro balls can be made at night. I just wait to cook them with the red beans in the morning. I will sell them in the nearby alleys. I go twice in the morning and twice in the afternoon. I'm not tired and I can exercise."
Qi Shuo thought about the feasibility. The ingredients are available at home. It is in Shouyun Village, more than ten miles away from Dongshoulan Town. His parents are farmers. These high-yield sweet potato pumpkins can’t be eaten by every household in the countryside. Feed the pigs.
Red beans can also be exchanged for barter in the village. The only thing that needs money to buy is starch and sugar.
"Just try it first, if it's too tired, I'll think about it again." Qiao Shen blinked his eyes and begged Qi Shuo.
Qiao Shen's pupils are black and bright, and his eyes are black and white, just like a pair of deer eyes. The lining Qiao Shen is gentle and jade. Looking at such a Qiao Shen, Qi Shuo agreed.
."Just a little bit, don't be tired, Chang Le is still young, he is in a troublesome grade, and you can't just ignore him for business."
"No, I just wander around in the nearby alleys and don't make too many. Chang Le also needs exercise. I will take him more to walk safely." Qiao Shen heard Qi Shuo agree and hugged happily. With Xiao Changle who eats cakes obediently, kiss him on his forehead.
Watching Xiao Changle pouting his mouth and biting the cake with a mouthful of millet teeth, Qiao Shen was kissed by Meng and took another bite.
At first, Xiao Changle smiled and hugged him. After four or five kisses, he couldn't help earning money. He hated it, and his father kept bothering him eating cakes.
Considering that Qiao Shen was at home on weekdays and couldn't carry his shoulders with his hands, Qi Shuo simply drove him a small wooden trailer.
.After discussing with Qiao Shen, Qiao Shen gave a rough sketch idea based on the knowledge of modern black technology, so the improved version of the cart is being produced.
Qi Shuo was busy the next day, and the cart was ready.
The trolley is actually a small trailer that imitates those old ladies who go to the vegetable market to buy and load vegetables in modern times. Two sturdy poles are set up on the two enlarged wooden wheel reels, and a thick board is embedded at the bottom for the wooden barrel. There is a small space behind the wooden barrel, and the partition is set up. Put spoons, money jars and the like.
That night, Qiao Shen happily tried the small cart, and put a wooden bucket filled with water. The bucket contained two-thirds of the water. It would not spill out, and it would not take much effort to push it up.
On the third day, Qi Shuo took Qiao Shen in an ox cart back to Shouyun Village to visit relatives.
.The grandpa who drove the ox cart was a farmer in Shouyun Village. He came to Dongzhen for three to five days to send vegetables to some restaurants to sell money.

In the early years, Qi Shuo was still an apprentice carpenter. Because he lived in the town, he helped the village talk about the sale of this single item. Many farmers in Shouyun Village produced different vegetables, and they were transported to the town to sell them. To the restaurant.
Because of this relationship, Grandpa also gave Qi Shuo some food when he went to the town, and got closer. From time to time, Qi Shuo's family took Grandpa's ox cart back to the village, and Grandpa also earned a few more coppers.
Along the way, Qiao Shen looked at the ancient countryside, chatting with Grandpa from time to time, and wandering into Shouyun Village. The village is backed by mountains, and a small river in front of the village passes through Shouyun Village without knowing its end. Shouyun Village is a treasured land surrounded by mountains and rivers. The air is fresh and refreshing.
.After paying the car and bidding farewell to Grandpa, Qi Shuo held Xiao Changle and led Qiao Shen to his home.
Father Qi planned to facilitate the expansion, so his home was built at the end of the village. It was not convenient for Qi Shuo to find friends to play when he was young.
The rural folk customs are simple, and occasionally the courtyard door is wide open. The host’s family sits in the courtyard to enjoy the cool, and when people pass by, they all greet them generously and actively. The villagers greeted Qi Shuo with enthusiasm when he came back with Fulang's son.
In the hearts of the villagers in Shouyun Village, Qi Shuo is a child of someone else's family. When I was a kid, I went to the county town to make a living. At a young age, I bought a yard in the county town and opened a shop. The villagers educate their children to like to follow Qi Shuo as an example.
"Qi Er, is the business in the town okay?"
Holding Xiao Changle in his arms, Qi Shuo stopped to respond: "Make do, I can live a life."
.Qi Shuo responded to the villagers who came out to say hello. When others invited him, he also replied. Only then did he bid farewell to the villagers and returned to Qi's house.
In addition to Qi’s father and Qi’s mother, the Qi family also lives with Qi Shuo’s eldest brother, Qi Yan’s family. Qi Yan’s eldest son is a little brother, named Xiao Changxi, who is twelve years old; the younger son is a man, named Xiao Chang’an, who is also nine years old. NS.
Qi Mu was in the yard with shoe soles. Even though it was noon, most people in the countryside were still working in the fields, and Qi's father and Qi Shuo's family were still in the fields.
Mother Qi happily greeted the youngest son's family, holding Xiao Changle and not letting go.
He cut the melon again, and brought his own fried pumpkin seeds to Qiao Shen to eat. Watching Xiao Changle holding a small piece of melon to eat, Qi Mu cautiously asked, "Still can't speak? Did you ask the doctor?"
"I've seen it, the doctor said it's normal. It's okay, I'm learning it every day.Qi Shuo quickly let Qi's mother rest assured, afraid that Qiao Shen would mind being suspicious. He knew that his mother didn't blame Qiao Shen, so he quickly changed the subject: "Mother, do you have more sweet potato pumpkins at home?"

Qiao Shen nibbled the pumpkin seeds, but didn't think much about it. He teased Xiao Changle and shouted grandma. Xiao Changle snarled twice and continued to nibbles on the melon.
Seeing that Qiao Shen was generous, Mother Qi was relieved, but at the same time, she no longer spoke cautiously: "It's a lot, you go this time, pretend to be more."
A few people were sitting in the yard, watching Xiao Chang leap da da da dad da da da da da da da da da da da, touch, step on the west, chatting, chatting about the family.
When the sun was getting low and the people in the farmland were about to drive home, Qi Mu went back to the stove to prepare dinner.
Qiao Shen was too embarrassed to sit, and hurried into the kitchen room to kill Qi Mu. Qi Mu asked him to sit and rest, but he did not have the embarrassment to agree.
.Until Qiao Shen was cutting vegetables, Xiao Changle came in and grabbed Qiao Shen's legs, and he kept acting like a baby to hug him. There was no way, so he listened to Qi Mu cheeky and hugged Xiao Changle out of the kitchen room.
He went to the yard with Xiao Changle in his arms, and Qiao pointed his head at Xiao Changle's head: "Just make trouble, you don't have to do anything every day, and you don't let daddy do anything."
Xiao Changle is ignorant, "Huh?"
Here Qi Shuo sat with his mother for a while, and Qi's mother was cooking.
Qiao Shen hugged Xiao Changle around the yard, and Qi mother in the corner of the yard planted some peppers, tomatoes and other vegetables.
Some tomatoes were already red, Xiao Changle struggled to the ground, and tremblingly grabbed the tomatoes, grabbed a half-red and green tomato and pulled it into his arms.
.Qiao Shen mumbled: "You really don't know the goods, the red ones are hanging on the side, and you can pick the green ones."
He grabbed Xiao Changle's little paw and transferred it to a ripe tomato. Xiao Changle couldn't hold it and pulled it off, so he held the tomato and stretched out his mouth.
Qiao Shen couldn't laugh or cry and rescued the tomato from Xiao Changle's mouth, took it off, and led Xiao Changle into the stove, and washed the tomatoes with water.
Seeing Xiao Changle holding tomatoes and chewing, Qi's mother kept on holding her hand and smiled and said, "Is it delicious, Changle? Grandma still has the seeds left, so dad can take it back and plant it for us, okay? "
"Grandma asks you something, Chang Le. Say...grandma~, say... delicious~" Qiao Shen moved a stool and hugged Xiao Changle and sat at the door.
.He lowered his head and gently rubbed the soft hair of Xiao Changle, and said to Qi's mother: "If there are too many seeds, the mother will decorate me, and I will bring them back and plant them."
"Harm, there are not many seeds, if you are not too tired, I will pretend to be something for you and you will bring it back to plant." Qi Mu replied, cutting the bacon.
So Qiao Shen ordered some tomatoes, peppers, and cabbage and other vegetable seeds. By the way, I asked about the things to pay attention to when planting these vegetables, and I plan to go back and plant them in the backyard, next to the well, or water.
In the kitchen room, Qi Mu was cooking vegetables, and Qiao Shen protected Xiao Changle to set Qi Mu's fire. When there was a big fire, he would add some firewood.
When the dishes are almost done, the people in the farmland have all arrived home.
For dinner, a large family set up a table in the yard and ate lively around the table. The men also drank a small wine. The rice wine made by the village was not high.
.The children were almost eating. Nine-year-old Chang An approached Qiao Shen and reached out to touch Xiao Changle's soft little arm. Qiao deeply rubbed Chang An's head, put down Xiao Chang Le, and let Chang An take the lead to play.
After dinner, the family sat in the yard and chatted. Qi Shuo said that he wanted to sell snacks in the county town.
"So, when I come back from this trip, I want to buy some sweet potato pumpkins with my family." Qiao Shen took over and said.
Father Qi fully agreed, "If you say you can't buy it, you can sell it first."
He is a farmer who doesn't know much about doing business. The second son has helped his family a lot over the years, and what he wants is not gold and expensive things. There is no reason why he is a father who doesn't support it.
After chatting about the length of the house again, Qi mother got up while it was still dark, and went to clean up the stove. The sister-in-law got up and cleaned up the room where Qiao Shen's family slept at night, and Qiao Shen also went to help.
.The men sit in the yard, catch the cold, and look at the cheerful children playing from time to time.
With sheets and quilts hanging in the yard, Xiao Changle came over and played hide-and-seek with his brother, haha.
When it gets dark, the adults who have been farming for a day are also tired, and they go back to their houses and prepare to rest.
Qi Shuo took a basin of water, and Qiao Shen washed his hands and feet for himself and Xiao Changle, and lay on his bed. When Qi Shuo finished pouring the water and returned to the house, the young and the young were already asleep.
The last oil lamp in the yard also went out, the whole village was pitch black, and everyone fell asleep.
