It was rainy at noon on September 6th.
Shitou, Miner, and Xu Hongping sat huddled under the factory shed.
Shitou touched the handkerchief from time to time and shouted: Selling handkerchiefs, selling insoles, our goods are purely handmade, the quality is absolutely first-class, if you want to buy, buy quickly...
Min'er called out: Brother-in-law, don't touch the handkerchief, it won't get caught in the rain.
"I'm not afraid of it getting caught in the rain. I'm worried about the wind. The wind will blow it away." Shitou responded:
Xu Hongping said: Today's weather is "lukewarm", which makes our business "tepid".
"No wonder! At this time, people who buy handkerchiefs find it too cold, and those who buy insoles find it too hot. It's really hard to sell." Min'er commented:
"Huh!" A strong wind blew, and the handkerchiefs on the stall were blown into a mess.
Min'er held the handkerchief on the stall with both hands.
Xu Hongping squatted in front of the stall to pick up a handkerchief and muttered: The wind is so strong.
Shi Shi waved the handkerchief and asked: Mom, is there any mud on the handkerchief? .
"These handkerchiefs are blowing in the stall, so they shouldn't be there." Xu Hongping replied:
Min'er bent down to pick up the handkerchief.
Shitou called out, "It's fine without mud, but it'll be troublesome if it's stained with mud."
Miner slowly straightened up.
Shitou glanced at Min'er and immediately tilted his head.
Min'er saw Shi Shi's reaction and looked at her: What's wrong with me?
She lowered her head and stared around.
She didn't find anything!
She put down her handkerchief - and went to sit on the stool.
Just as she bent down to sit on the stool.
She saw her breasts exposed.
She felt extremely embarrassed.
She quickly pulled on her clothes.
Xu Hongping asked: Min'er, are you hungry now?
"It's okay! I didn't sweat today and I'm not very hungry." Min'er replied:
"Mom, are you hungry? I'm going to buy something to eat." Shitou shouted:
Xu Hongping replied: You don't have to buy them, Miss Fu and the others will send dumplings over in a moment.
"Auntie still understands us. Auntie, just eat. If you don't eat enough, we will get it again." Fu Zi walked to the stall holding an umbrella.
Xu Hongping called out: Miss Fu, come in and take a rest in the factory shed.
Fuzi walked into the factory shed and said: Auntie, we kept you waiting.
"No, no, it's raining today, and our business is not very good. I've been sitting here for a long time, and I'm a little too busy. I just want to eat." Xu Hongping replied:
When Shitou saw Fuzi walking in, he stepped back one after another.
Min'er stood behind the stone and deliberately raised her chest.
As a result, Shi Shi's hand pressed on Min'er's chest.
Min'er pushed the stone's hand and shouted: Brother-in-law.
Shi Shi retracted his hand, his face instantly turned red.
Xu Hongping turned her head and asked: Min'er, what's wrong with you?
Miner smiled and said: We are fine.
Xiaojing held a bowl of dumplings and handed it to Shitou's hand.
Shitou thanked him: Thank you, Miss Xiaojing!
Xiao Jing looked at Min'er angrily and said: Miss Min'er, there is a bowl of dumplings there, go and get it yourself.
Miner replied: Please help me get it!
Xiaojing leaned on the stall and replied: I'm tired.
"Xiao Jing, go help Miss Min'er get it." Fu Zi shouted:
Xiaojing said: Miss, she...
Fu Zi shouted: What about her! The bowl of dumplings is in front of you.
Min'er echoed: It's troublesome.
Xiaojing lowered her head and slowly served the dumplings.
Shitou asked: Miss Fu, when will your brother come back?
"I don't know either! He didn't say the exact date, but I guess! He will be back in the next two days." Fu Zi replied:
Shitou said: Why didn’t Brother Xing come with you today?
"It's raining today and the store is busy. The lady left him in the store to help." Xiaojing handed over the dumplings and replied:
Fuzi stared at Xiaojing and shouted: Xiaojing.
Xiaojing glanced at Fuzi and quickly closed her mouth.
Seeing this scene, Xu Hongping smiled and said: Today is a rainy day, everyone is crowded in the house, how can your business not be good?
"Grandma, please forgive me! I didn't mean to say these words to irritate you, my bad mouth, my bad mouth (Xiao Jing kept slapping her own mouth)."
Xu Hongping shouted: Xiaojing, what are you doing!
Xiaojing slapped her mouth and muttered: My bad mouth, my bad mouth.
Xu Hongping grabbed Xiaojing's hand and shouted: Xiaojing, stop it.
Xiaojing hugged Xu Hongping and said: Grandma, I am quick to talk, you have to forgive me.
"Silly girl, why don't you forgive me! Not to mention that what you said is the truth, even if what you said is not the truth, it's just one sentence! How can we still argue with you!" Xu Hongping called:
Xiaojing thanked: Thank you, grandma! Grandma won’t forgive me...
"Mom, let's close the stall and go home later, okay! Today's business is not very good, so we are just sitting here." Shitou put down his chopsticks and shouted:
Xu Hongping responded: That's fine, let's close the stall.
Xiaojing walked to Shitou and collected the bowls and chopsticks.
Min'er took a mouthful of dumplings and shouted: Sister Jing, here it is!
"I don't dare to take that. You are a dignified young lady. How dare I ask you to call me sister!" Xiaojing replied:
Min'er swallowed a mouthful of dumplings and said: I said, I said you are so lazy and careless. I called you sister, which shows that I have no ill intentions...
"Don't, don't, don't, I don't care whether you are malicious or kind, I only know! I am a servant, you are a lady, we are not the same person." Xiaojing put away the bowls and chopsticks and continued:
Min'er frowned and said: You, you are a psycho.
"Sister Min'er, you can't curse. This is my maidservant's personality. She speaks directly and never minces words. Did you offend her somewhere?" Fu Zi responded:
Min'er called out: She still holds a grudge.
"Of course I have to remember! Why don't I remember what you said! You said I was a servant..." Xiaojing replied:
Shitou shouted: Miss Fu, your store is so busy, you should go back and check the store!
Fu Zi then said: There are people watching in the store, so don’t worry, big brother!
"I'm not worried about your store, I want to close the stall." Shitou responded:
"Oh!" Xiaojing held up the bowl and chopsticks and said:
Fuzi picked up the rain gear and said: Brother, let's say goodbye.
Shitou replied: You walk slowly.
Fu Zi faced Xu Hongping and said: Auntie, we are leaving.
Xu Hongping warned: The road is slippery, please be careful!
Xiaojing followed Fuzi and shouted: Grandma, goodbye!
Shitou put away the handkerchief and called out: As the saying goes, "three women perform a show", I finally saw it today.
"Brother-in-law, what do you mean?" Min'er asked:
"What's the point of me! I praised you for your good acting. You and Miss Fu, you and I, made the scene very lively. I didn't send them away just now. You can probably talk about it tomorrow morning." Shitou. Replied:
Min'er grabbed the handkerchief and said: Brother-in-law, you just saw it, they talked to me, how could I not answer!
"Yes! How can you not speak when you have a mouth!" Xu Hongping bent down to put away the handkerchief.
Shitou shouted: Mom, let us do the work, and you stay aside.
"This is not a heavy job! I can do it." Xu Hongping continued:
"Mom, please go to the side! My brother-in-law and I will get it done in the blink of an eye." Min'er shouted:
"Okay, okay, okay, I'll leave it to you." Xu Hongping stepped back.
Shitou asked: Mom, did you sell ten handkerchiefs today?
"Don't you know!" Xu Hongping replied:
Shitou argued: I didn't pay attention when I was selling handkerchiefs.
Xu Hongping "rummaged through" her wallet and said: I will know after counting the money.
"Mom, stop counting. Three people came to buy handkerchiefs today. Two of them bought two handkerchiefs, and one person bought 4 handkerchiefs. We sold 8 handkerchiefs in total." Min'er called:
"Min'er, you remember clearly!" Xu Hongping shouted:
Min'er responded: That's right.
"If I remember correctly! Today is the worst business ever since we started selling handkerchiefs." Shitou clapped his hands and said:
Xu Hongping continued: If Miss Fu hadn't brought us dumplings today, we wouldn't even be able to pay for the meal.
"I still remember! Once, a vendor said he wanted to buy our handkerchiefs in batches." Shitou said:
Xu Hongping smiled and said: You are talking about that person! He is joking with you!
It's also possible that something happened to him.
"That's not necessarily the case." Shitou replied:
"Mom, please step back with your rain gear, we are going to demolish the factory shed!" Miner shouted:
Xu Hongping said: Did you cover it with your handkerchief? Be careful not to get the handkerchief wet.
"Mom, don't worry, I covered it very tightly." Min'er responded:
Shitou walked to the shed shelf and pulled the rope.
"How do you sell your handkerchiefs?"
Xu Hongping called out: Sell one piece for a penny.
"Give me a few."
Xu Hongping went to the basket and turned over the handkerchief.
"Mom, let me do it!" Shitou walked towards the basket.
Xu Hongping responded: No, let me do it.
"Young man, we meet again."
Shitou turned his head and asked: Uncle, do we know each other?
"You've seen so many people, maybe you don't remember them."
Shitou stared at this man and said: Uncle, I'm sorry! I really don't remember you.
Xu Hongping asked: Sir, how many handkerchiefs do you want?
The man stretched out his hand and replied: We will talk about it later!
This person introduced: I am a geography teacher, I live in Liuhe Township...
"Mr. Geography, do you want to take advantage of my brother-in-law?" Min'er walked up to this man and interrupted:
The man smiled and said: Why should I take advantage of him? I advise you! Don't get it wrong.
After hearing these words, Miner felt a little flustered and said: You are here to cheat money! My brother-in-law is not the boss...
"Miss, can I tell you a riddle and solve it for you! If you can't solve it, you are not allowed to talk to me." The man shouted:
"Why should I listen to you!" Min'er said disdainfully:
The man continued: I’d better not say it anymore. With your IQ, you definitely won’t be able to figure it out.
"Don't provoke me! There is nothing important in the world that I don't know!" Min'er replied:
Xu Hongping shouted: Min'er, what nonsense are you lying about?
"Let me ask you! There are so many butterflies in the world! There are so many flowers! Can you help me analyze whether it is the flower that falls in love with the butterfly or the butterfly that falls in love with the flower." The man replied:
Miner shouted: You are fooling me, I am not a child.
"You are just a child, don't think so! I don't know anything about you! You were born into a wealthy family, and there are seven or eight old ladies at home. You are still not satisfied, and you are in love with butterflies and flowers all day long." The man continued:
Min'er buried her head and remained silent.
Shitou shouted: Uncle, come and sit inside the factory shed.
"Young man, I won't sit down anymore. I'm still wearing a bamboo hat on my head!" the man responded:
Xu Hongping shouted: Brother, take off your bamboo hat and come in to have a rest!
Plus, you don’t have a handkerchief yet!
The man took off his bamboo hat and said with a smile: I'll sit down for a while!
Shi Shi moved the stool and called: Uncle, sit down!
The man looked at Xu Hongping and said: Sister-in-law, how is this uncle?
Xu Hongping was stunned and said: Brother, you are mistaken! How could he be my uncle!
"Don't go around with me! I know! You have a son. Your son is a talented person, but compared to your uncle..." The man continued:
Xu Hongping interrupted: Brother, where did you hear this? I do not know how! I have such a wonderful son.
The man shouted: I saw it on your face.
Shitou bowed and said: Uncle, you are wrong, I am not as good as you said!
"Young man, little brother, don't be humble in front of me! We are destined to meet again! It means that our fate is not broken. If I am right, you will be my destined person..." This person commented:
Shitou smiled and said: Uncle, you are too arbitrary. We have only met twice and you said we are destined.
He also said that I am your destined person.
"Little brother, no matter what I say now! You will be dubious. Let me tell you something practical! Starting from today, within a month, if you don't go north, you will think that I am talking nonsense. If you are caught by me, That's right. When you go north, be sure to find me next to the township government in Liuhe Township." The man called:
Shitou smiled and said: Uncle, you are so sure!
"Definitely." The man replied:
Shitou said: Let's not talk about this.
Uncle, how many handkerchiefs do you want?
The man walked up to the basket and said, "Is there a "peace" handkerchief in it?"
Shitou continued: Yes.
"Give me 4 of the same ones." The man responded:
Shitou picked out four handkerchiefs and shouted: Here!
The man asked: How much is the total amount here?
Shitou replied: Forget it, forget it, you told us this!
The man took out two pieces of silver and put them on the stall and said: How can this be done? One thing comes to another, you are out to do business - you need capital.
Xu Hongping shouted: Brother...
"I almost forgot, my name is: Xu Wangcai, others call me - Xu Banxian." This man held a handkerchief and walked forward slowly.
Xu Hongping asked: Shitou, who is this person?
The stone was covered with a handkerchief and said: How could I know! What he just said! It's nothing more than some "crazy talk".
Min'er looked at the man's leaving figure and muttered: In my opinion, this man is not simple...
