Spring scenery in the fields

When he was a child, his family raised chickens. When his father cleaned the chicken coop, he would let them out for a walk and then lure them back with food. Some chickens didn't need to be led out, they would just walk around and go home.

Ji Wenhe quickly shook his head: "No, if it runs away, it will be too late to regret it, so it's better to keep it in a pen."

It drizzled until the evening.

The two brothers worked hard for a whole day and finally finished weaving the round basket.

Shen Yuanshan concluded: "Brother, you have to return the round basket to the owner tomorrow."

Change it later and use your own.

"Okay." Shen Rongshan put a dozen or so wooden hairpins he had sharpened into the basket.

Ji Wenhe looked over and found that there was not much difference between each hairpin. His hands were steady and there were no flaws or chipped wooden hairpins.

The rain stopped, and she put down the clothes in her hands: "Brother Shen, I'm going to go to Aunt Lan's house and ask her to help embroider the eyes."

But this time I can't ask for free help.

Shen Rongshan was worried: "I'll go with you. It's raining and the road is slippery."

"It's okay, I'll be careful, you guys cook at home, I'll be back soon."

He went into the house, took the cloth, put it in the basket, said hello, and hurried down the mountain.

"Walk slowly, don't be in a hurry." He reminded from behind.

Ji Wenhe waved with his back to him and slowed down his pace: "Got it, Brother Shen, you cook."

Shen Yuanshan teased: "Brother, my sister-in-law is not a child."

Looking at his worried expression, if you didn’t know better you would think that their sister-in-law was going to a dangerous place.

Shen Rongshan turned around, glanced at them, and said softly: "Your sister-in-law is a woman, how can she compare with us men? She must be raised delicately."

The two smiled at each other and continued to tease each other.

"How enviable." Shen Wenshan laughed happily, "Why doesn't Big Brother spoil us?"

"Yes, eldest brother is partial." Shen Yuanshan agreed.

"You are men. If you were not weak, I would train you like in the military camp."

He believes that men should be manly.

Shen Rongshan stared at them with a dark look in his eyes, and the two of them trembled all over.

Shen Yuanshan quickly said, "Brother, we were wrong. We will never tease you and sister-in-law again. Please let us go."

"When you are well again, I will teach you a few moves so that you can protect yourself when you encounter trouble in the future."

It was impossible to let them go, he wanted to train them anyway.

At the foot of the mountain, Lan Qiuhua’s home.

"Aunt Lan, what do you think?" Ji Wenhe told her the price.

Shen Suya sat on the bench, holding her chin and looking at the two of them.

She came to the door when we were preparing to have dinner at home.

She doesn't know how to embroider, so it depends on her mother's decision.

Lan Qiuhua thought for a moment and said, "Five cents each, and only the eyes are embroidered?"

Ji Wenhe nodded: "Yes, only embroider the eyes."

Let her embroider it all, one penny is too low a price, and she can embroider the rest herself.

"Aunt Lan, you know, I don't sell it for a high price. If it's higher, I guess no one will buy it."

"If it becomes complicated in the future, the price can go up and the quantity can go down. If it can be sold at a high price, the price can naturally go up as well."

Other people can make the things she makes. They can learn it just by watching her, and they can also make them better than she sells.

You can only sell it for a sense of novelty. After a while, it will be difficult to sell, so the style has to be constantly updated.

Lan Qiuhua nodded: "Okay, tell me in detail about the different colors of fabrics and what color the eyes should be embroidered."

Ji Wenhe raised the corner of his lips and took out threads of different colors. There were not many left at home, so he would ask Shen Rongshan to buy more threads next time he went to the market.

After she left, Shen Suya served rice by the stove: "Mom, my sister-in-law is really amazing. She knows a lot. She can weave bracelets and sell hairpins."

"Yeah, I really don't know how her mother could have the heart to sell her to someone else."

Although these ideas may not make a lot of money, they are better than no money.

"Brother Rongshan mentioned the business of being a peddler. It was my sister-in-law who suggested it. If it weren't for my sister-in-law, Brother Rongshan wouldn't have become a peddler."

I overheard it when I came home and talked to her father.

Lan Qiuhua took the bowl and sat down: "Your elder brother Rongshan said that your sister-in-law is a person with ideas. She has found a treasure."

"They are both capable. I guess even the headman's family won't be able to match their future."

She had a premonition that Shen Rongshan's family would live better than before.

The rain stopped at night and the sky was gloomy the next day.

Shen Rongshan was worried that it would rain again, so he asked them to wait until the sun came out before going out.

The three of them went for a walk in the mountains and picked up a lot of fungus and wild vegetables.

"You guys search down there while I dig a few more traps. Don't wait for me. When you're done, go home."

The sun rises in the east.

Shen Yuanshan looked towards the east and said, "Brother, we are out of the village, the sun is out, there will definitely be no rain today."

Shen Rongshan held up a shovel and said, "Okay, come back quickly if the weather gets bad."

The two brothers nodded and carried the basket down the mountain.

After the rain, many people went up the mountain to look for wood ear mushrooms, some from this village and some from other villages.

Because they sold things in the village, the aunts all knew the two men.

"Hey, aren't you going to sell noodles today?" asked one of the aunts, who was from another village.

Shen Yuanshan smiled and said, "We were just about to go. Auntie, you are busy, so we will leave first."

"Hey, let's go."

After they walked away, the person next to them said, "They live in the mountains. Can people live in caves?"

She seldom came to Shenjia Village and didn't know that they lived in a cave.

"There's no housing land at the foot of the mountain. If we don't live in a cave, where else can we live? It's good enough to have a place to live."

Looking at the cave in the distance, several people went to the people in the village and asked a lot about Shen Rongshan's family.

When Ji Wenhe got up, he happened to see them carrying baskets out of the house: "Go slowly. If you can't sell all the goods today, you can sell them tomorrow. There's no rush."

"I understand, sister-in-law." Shen Wenshan picked up the bamboo pole and said, "Sister-in-law, my brother has gone to dig a trap. He will be back soon. You can eat first and don't have to wait for him."

"Okay, you go."

After dinner, I went to the wasteland to look at the chickens. I looked up and saw Shen Rongshan coming down and waved.

When he looked over, he pointed in the direction of Lan Qiuhua's house, indicating that he wanted to go to their house.

He nodded.

Ji Wenhe came to the gate of the courtyard carrying the cloth and silk cords: "Aunt Lan, Xiaoya, are you home?"

"Yes." Lan Qiuhua came out from Shen Suya's room. "I just came back and was about to embroider the eyes."

She went for a walk in the mountains early in the morning and picked up a lot of fungus and wild vegetables.

"Shen Liuyun is coming home today."

"Did Aunt Lan see them coming back?"

She pointed behind her and said, "Isn't that right? Who else in our village can ride in a carriage?"

Ji Wenhe looked back and saw that the person driving the carriage was Shen Liuyun's husband: "You're here quite early."

It's only about eight o'clock now.

Lan Qiuhua turned and went into the house: "It's a long way, come earlier, if you come late, the head of the village will feel uncomfortable."

Shen Suya came out and only saw the rear of the carriage: "Sister Liuyun is married, I can't go to play with her in the future."
