The happy little days of the Ye family

"Tomorrow, I will go sell goods tomorrow."

The last time I went to the county to buy things, I had to sell them quickly. They have been backlogged for a long time.

Father Ye has been clearing the open space at the foot of Xiaohou Mountain these days, and only planted the land yesterday. When he was free, he naturally started his life as a salesman.

"I made those pieces of brightly colored rags into headbands. You can take them and sell them together tomorrow."

Those pieces of cloth were too small, so Mother Ye spent a lot of effort to splice them into ten very beautiful headbands.

Then Mother Ye warned: "One piece of fabric can probably be used to make two or three sets of clothes. Generally, people cut the fabric for one or two sets of clothes. They don't buy it in a whole piece. You can cut as much as they want."

"Red fabric and goose-yellow fabric are suitable for making headbands and headbands. You can take the rest home. It's good for making headbands and headbands."

"Mom, I want it too. Make me a headband and a hair tie. I want the goose yellow ones." Ye Qingqing loves beauty and also wants the headband and headband made by Ye Mu.

"No problem, you have to help me when I do it." Mother Ye is also a doting daughter.

"Mom, teach me. Once I learn how to make it myself, I'll let dad help me sell it on consignment when it's done. Hehehehe!" The little girl put her hands on her hips and smiled proudly.

The others were also amused and laughed.

"What a clever guy!" Old Mrs. Ye nodded lovingly on her precious granddaughter's little head.

Ye Gonglang drove the donkey cart early in the morning to prepare to sell goods. When I came to the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, I found that it was quite lively.

Two aunts brought over the vegetables that they couldn't finish at home for sale. In addition, the hunter from the village also brought a rabbit and some dried meat to set up a stall. Several aunts were sitting under the tree chatting, and there were a few other aunts sitting on the side. A little kid was playing and playing.

"Good harvest, where are you driving the donkey cart so early in the morning?"

People in the village had long known that Ye's father was fired from the grocery store. When they saw him driving the donkey cart, they came forward curiously to inquire.

"This red cloth is good! Harvest, will this cloth be sold?"

A sharp-eyed aunt's eyes lit up when she saw the red cloth on the donkey cart. Her daughter had just gotten engaged and needed the red cloth.

"I don't work in the grocery store anymore. I just bought a few things and plan to become a salesman. Aunts and aunts, please come and take a look. I have a lot of stuff here."

Seeing that there were quite a lot of people here, Father Ye thought he might as well set up a stall here, so he unloaded the shed from the donkey cart and started selling on the donkey cart.

"130 yuan a horse." Father Ye knew that these old women were the best at bargaining, so he added a little to the original price to bargain with them.

"Red cloth is rare. I spent a lot of money to get it. Besides, I couldn't sell it at a loss even if I got it all the way from the county." Father Ye handed the red linen cloth to his aunt.

"The color is too light and the dyeing is not even enough. It costs 120 yuan. If possible, I will take the whole piece of fabric."

The aunt looked at the fabric in her hand and nodded inwardly. Although the color was a little lighter, true red fabric was hard to find. This fabric was pretty good and could be used to make wedding quilts and wedding dresses.

"Auntie, 120 yuan is really not enough. I have to pay for 130 yuan. If you sincerely buy it, just 125 yuan, and I will give you a bundle of cloth."

"Okay, I want 125 yuan. Give me two more bundles of this cloth and I'll take it back to make shoes."

"Okay, Auntie, you are my first guest. I will give you two more bundles of cloth. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me at home." The cloth didn't cost money anyway, so Father Ye generously gave her two more bundles. .

"Candy cubes, candy cubes, delicious candy cubes, you can get one for every penny." Seeing many little kids around, Ye's father quickly took out the candy cubes from his basket.

When they heard that there were candy bars, several children couldn't help it. Two children from well-off families took money directly from their pockets to buy candy bars.

The other children were also greedy when they saw it. Those who had money in their pockets took the money to buy candy bars, while those who didn't have money in their pockets hurried home to get the money from their parents.

"Brother Fengshou, let me get you some needle and thread."

Father Ye took a look and found out that it was Ye Xiaoli, the younger sister of Fa Xiao's family, who had married into the village a few years ago.

"Xiaoli, there are two kinds of needles and threads here, one is ordinary and the other is better. Which one do you want?" Father Ye took out both kinds of needles and threads and let Ye Xiaoli choose.

"I want something better." Ye Xiaoli didn't like the ones with average quality and wanted the good ones.

"I still have some facial grease and hair ties here, do you want to take a look at them too?" Father Ye brought two more boxes of facial grease and hair ties to show to Ye Xiaoli.

Father Ye saw that Ye Xiaoli was wearing clothes made of cheesecloth, and there was no pudding on the clothes. Her husband's family must be well off.

Ye Xiaoli finally took another box of facial grease and a handkerchief made by Ye Qingqing.

"Xiao Li, the total is 73 yuan. You can take this bundle of cloth back. Although it is not a good fabric, it can be used to make shoes." Father Ye collected the money and generously picked out a larger bundle of cloth and stuffed it with it. To Ye Xiaoli.

These rags were originally given by shopkeeper Chen, but Father Ye simply gave them away instead of selling them for money.

"Then you're welcome. I'll come back to you next time if I'm short of something at home."

Ye Xiaoli directly stuffed the rags into the basket, then went to a nearby stall to buy a fat rabbit before returning home.

"It's right here, there are candy bars, hurry up..."

The child who went home to get money came back, followed by several children who were not here just now.

"I want 2 candy bars."

"Give it to me first, I want three yuan."

"I, I, I want a piece"

"Okay, okay, I have everything."

Father Ye quickly distributed the candies to the hands of these little greedy cats, and then emptied the pockets of these little greedy cats.

At this time, another pair of little sisters came. The older one was eleven or twelve years old, and the younger one was only seven or eight years old.

"Uncle, I want two red headbands." The seven or eight-year-old girl said in a sweet voice while holding two red headbands.

"I want these two ones with bows." The older one fell in love with the headband made by Ye Mu.

The headband with a bow is made by Ye Mu. The fabric is too small, so Ye Mu specially sewed a bow on the splicing, which is very beautiful.

"Little sister, the red headband costs one penny, and two strands cost 2 cents. The one with a bow tie costs 4 cents, and two strands cost [-] cents. The total is six cents."

The eldest girl counted six coins from her purse and handed them to Father Ye, and happily took her sister home with her headband.

"Mr. Ye, do you have any soap and hair oil here?" asked a familiar young woman.

"Not yet. I'll bring some back next time I stock up. I have face cream and hand cream here. Do you want to take a look? They are all bought from the county. They are very moisturizing." Father Ye took a box of face cream. Give it to women to try.

The woman put a little on her hands and it felt good. I originally wanted a box of facial cream, but a tin of facial cream cost 50 yuan, so I put the thing down and left.

Father Ye saw that no one came to buy anything, so he packed up his things and prepared to go to the next village.
