Good luck every time

After dinner, Li Ruyi had nothing to do, so he went out and made a board and hung it on the wall so that he could practice his accuracy with the crossbow.

As soon as she hung up the phone, Granny Ding, who was usually the quietest person, spoke quickly.

"Li Ruyi! Put away those things of yours!"

Li Ruyi recalled the arrow that pierced the bed in the thatched pavilion in the afternoon. He looked at the wooden board on the wall and the thatched pavilion, which were in opposite directions, and felt a little guilty.

"Master, I'm just practicing..."

Granny Ding greeted her.

"Don't practice here, practice in the front yard."

Li Ruyi agreed, then timidly carried the wooden board to the front yard to practice.

She lit a torch and stuck a few mugworts around. Fortunately, the yard was big enough, so when Li Ruyi got bored of practicing, she would practice in the yard, and continue practicing after calming down.

She went back to sleep only after her body was covered with several mosquito bites.

When I woke up, I felt the soreness that I hadn't felt for a long time appeared again, this time it was in my shoulders and arms.

Although the news she got from Qianjiazhuang yesterday made Li Ruyi feel a little heavy, she had not completely given up on this line. After practicing in the morning, she went to wander around the surrounding villages.

In this way, it was July, and the Qiqiao Festival was only a few days away.

Li Ruyi found a piece of coarse cloth with dyed flowers, sewed many strips on it, and tied the hair flowers on the strips, which hung down one by one.

She draped the cloth on the wooden box, and the colorful hair ornaments swayed slightly with her movements, attracting the attention of people along the way.

Many people asked her about the price, allowing Li Ruyi to make a small profit.

After wandering around the surrounding villages for two days, Li Ruyi went to the county town carrying a wooden box.

She continued to shout and sing along the way, attracting quite a few people.

After walking around the county town for two days, he sold out all the hair ornaments in his house.

In Da Qi, the Qiqiao Festival is a festival for girls. Families with girls would set up an offering table in the courtyard, place flowers and embroidery on it, and pray to the moon for cleverness at night.

Girls will also gather in groups of three or five to celebrate. They will make many small handicrafts, dress themselves up beautifully, watch the clouds together, and predict their fortunes through the shape of the clouds in the sky.

It is said that this day is the most accurate for predicting marriage.

For those things that I can't decide on my own, I want to leave them to fate.

Sanjia Village is also very lively.

Although Li Ruyi had a quarrel with the Li family, many people still came to ask Li Jixiang out this year.

Compared with Li Ruyi, Li Jixiang is more in line with the secular expectations of women.

Her inherent tenacity and diligence make her willing to work hard, but her soft character makes her willing to accept complaints.

Compared with her, Li Ruyi is simply the most uncooperative troublemaker. When people in the village talk about her, they smile in front of her but shake their heads behind her back.

Li Ruyi always lets things go as they please when it comes to such gatherings among young sisters.

The eldest sister also has her own life, and what she pursues is different from Li Ruyi. Li Ruyi is very open-minded about it.

Life is supposed to be harmonious and different.

Li Ruyi rarely went out to do business that day, so he set up an altar at home.

She spent all her money to buy a piece of meat and a pack of sausages.

There is a method to make pig intestine oil, otherwise the lard will be yellow and smelly.

Li Ruyi first rubbed the pig intestine fat clean with rice washing water, lit a large pot on fire, added cold water, and put the whole piece of intestinal fat into the pot with cold water.

After the water boils, skim off the foam, remove from the pan and cut into pieces. Clean the pan, put the cut intestinal oil into the pan, add a little water to prevent the pan from sticking, and then you can stir-fry.

The fried lard is white and fragrant.

She used to use this oil to make cakes.

Li Ruyi poured out most of the oil in the pot and used the rest to fry the chocolate cakes.

She made ordinary noodles in diamond-shaped pieces, while my eldest sister made more delicate ones in various flower shapes.

Li Ruyi uses two sieves to fry the pork. Although there is not much oil, the fire is not big, frying is slow, and it looks good.

The fried chocolates were put on a plate, one portion was placed on the altar, and Li Ruyi asked her to share the other portion with her younger sisters.

The third child has no younger sisters, so he can eat a whole portion by himself.

Li Ruyi did not advise her to make friends or anything like that. The third child was different from the eldest sister. She did not have the attention of Li Dagui, nor was she loved by her mother. She had been bullied by many children in the village and did not have a good impression of these people.

She didn't want to be perfunctory, and Li Ruyi was too lazy to force her.

Although Li Ruyi has no friends, as a parent, she has relatives that she must visit, such as her third aunt's family and the village head's family.

The third child was sent out by her to deliver cookies to these families. The amount was not much, just a handful wrapped in oil paper, but mainly as a token of appreciation.

As it got dark, Li Ruyi combed the hair of the eldest sister and the third sister beautifully and put hair flowers on them. The eldest sister went out to play with the younger sisters, and Li Ruyi and the third sister sat at home to watch the stars.

As she looked at the stars, she always felt that they were a little far away, so she turned to ask the third brother.

"Do you want to go to the rooftop to look at the stars?"

The third sister is Li Ruyi's little follower. She agrees to whatever Li Ruyi says and nods vigorously.

Li Ruyi found a ladder and the two of them climbed to the roof together. The thatched roof was a bit soft and not everywhere could be stepped on. Li Ruyi walked on it and let the third brother follow behind him.

Under the moonlight, two slender figures walked cautiously to the middle of the roof.

Li Ruyi sat on the roof, and the third brother sat next to her.

Two figures, one big and one small, looked at the starry sky.

Granny Ding was still lying in her thatched pavilion, but she wouldn't be there for much longer, as the nights would get colder and colder.

The house over there is already completely dry, and Li Ruyi feels that it is almost time to move.

She wanted to finalize the salt business before moving.

Thinking about the salt trade, the expression on Li Ruyi's face faded a bit.

After so many days, she hasn't gained much. She must change her mindset and can no longer approach the salt business with the mentality of a peddler.

Perhaps only by going to those truly remote places can she get the results she wants.

Li Ruyi turned his head and looked at the big mountain next to him. He must go and see if it would work!

She wanted money and wanted to make money, but as an ordinary peasant girl with no money and no background, she had few ways to make money.

The most precious thing is her life.

Li Ruyi narrowed her eyes. Han Shian brought opportunities, but whether she could seize the opportunities depended on her ability.

The third brother tilted his head and looked at a cloud floating across the sky.

"Look, sister! Doesn't that cloud look like a piece of lard?"

Li Ruyi: …

She retracted her wandering thoughts and looked down at the third brother.

"Are you greedy?"

The third brother swallowed and looked at Li Ruyi.

"Isn't the lard delicious? Aren't you greedy?"

There was accusation in her voice, as if she would get angry if Li Ruyi dared to say a word of denial.

Li Ruyi laughed and took out an oil-paper bag from his arms.

"Here you go!"

The third child's eyes lit up instantly. She opened the oil paper package and saw the lard inside. She raised her little fist with joy.

"Lard residue is the most delicious thing in the world!"

Li Ruyi smiled as she looked at her smiling face which had gained a lot of weight recently.

"What about fried chocolates? Aren't they delicious?"

After hearing this, the third child raised his little fist again.

“Fried chocolate cakes are the second best thing in the world!”

Li Ruyi stretched her hand into her arms and teased the third brother with a questioning look.

"Are you sure?"

The third brother's attention was instantly attracted by her hand. He stretched his neck to see if she could take out a bag of fried chocolate cakes. As a result, when Li Ruyi stretched out her hand, she took out a handful of air.

"Oh my, nothing!"

The third brother laughed out loud.

"Without fried chocolates, pork lard is the most delicious thing!"

She kicked her legs with joy and stuffed the lard residue into her mouth.

Put it in your mouth and chew it, the fragrance will make your head shake.
