Even though Liu Fugui did not stop and rushed all the way, it was already past midnight when he returned to Baqing Village.
If it weren't for the bright moonlight, he would probably have to spend the night with the old couple at the wonton restaurant.
He hadn't seen Xiao Yezi for a whole day, and Liu Fugui realized that he actually missed the little guy a little.
Therefore, he politely thanked the two old men for their kindness and drove back to Baqing Village in the dark.
The courtyard was quiet.
Liu Fugui had just pushed open the door when a probing voice suddenly came from the dark room.
"Papa?"
Liu Fugui was surprised when he heard the little girl's voice. He frowned and asked in the direction of the voice,
"Girl, you're not asleep yet?"
With that, he took out a match and fumbled around to light the lamp.
There was no electricity in the village, so they could only light kerosene lamps at night.
However, before he could turn on the lights, a series of tapping sounds came from the darkness. Before he could react, there was another tapping sound.
Liu Fugui's heart tightened. He quickly lit a match, and the dark room was instantly lit up by a faint light.
Not far away from him, the little guy who had just fallen on the ground seemed to not know the pain. He quickly got up and pounced at him.
Liu Fugui instinctively squatted down, and the little guy threw himself into his arms.
Her little face rubbed against his chest coquettishly, and her voice sounded aggrieved.
" Papa, you're finally back."
The little girl had been worried for the whole day, afraid that her father would not want her anymore.
Liu Fugui felt his heart clench again when he heard the little guy's aggrieved voice.
He hugged her tightly in his arms and turned around to light the kerosene lamp.
"Have you been here all this time? Why aren't you sleeping?"
"I'll wait for Papa to come back."
Xiao Yezi, who was lying on his shoulder, said in a muffled voice.
Liu Fugui felt his heart ache and helplessness when he heard that. He reached out and gently patted her back.
"Alright, alright. Isn't Daddy back now?
Xiao Yezi could sleep in peace now.
Daddy promises to bring you with me no matter where I go in the future, okay?”
After all, she was only a child of two or three years old. No matter how obedient and sensible she was, she still lacked a sense of security.
Previously, when he heard that he was going on a long trip, the little fellow did not say anything.
But today, she was still waiting for him until past midnight.
Now, it seemed that this little fellow was actually more dependent on him than he had imagined.
"Daddy, will you bring me along in the future?”
Xiao Yezi immediately stared at Liu Fugui with a burning gaze, her face full of surprise.
"Yes, I'll bring Xiao Yezi with me wherever I go.”
"Good! Ye 'zi can help Daddy earn money!"
In the room with flickering lights, Xiao Yezi's voice was filled with joy and excitement.
The interaction between the father and daughter finally woke up Liu Hongshan, who was half-closed on the bench.
Only then did Liu Fugui realize that the old man was also suffering here!
Seeing that his eldest grandson had returned home safe and sound, the old man rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction, but he was completely relieved.
Of course, in the end, she couldn't help but scold him for not looking at the time when he went out. Only then did she greet him and return to the east room with a yawn.
The old man closed the door and left. Liu Fugui turned around and was shocked to find that the little girl had fallen asleep in his arms.
Helpless, he could only pack up the things he brought back and quickly carry the little girl back to her room.
……
There was no need to go out today.
Liu Fugui and Xiao Yezi slept until eight or nine in the morning.
He didn't need to go out the next day.
Liu Fugui hugged his daughter and slept until the sun was high.
Liu Fugui only opened his eyes after Liu Hongshan slammed on the door.
"Whoa…I was wondering why my chest felt so tight in the middle of the night…"
Liu Fugui smiled bitterly and gently moved Xiao Yezi, who was sleeping soundly on his chest, to the side.
"Hurry up and get up! I cooked some corn and brought Xiaoyezi out to eat.”
After bidding farewell to Liu Fugui, Liu Hongshan left the house.
After washing up, Liu Fugui tried his best to tie two braids for the little girl.
The two of them were eating the corn in their hands with a smile, but Liu Fugui was still thinking about selling potatoes tomorrow.
"Kid, aren't you going to town to sell chestnuts today?”
Liu Hongshan sat on the bench by the door and rolled his cigarette skillfully. He glanced at his eldest grandson in the room and reminded him.
Yesterday, Jia Ming came back and said that he was the only one selling chestnuts in town. He said that business was very good.
This morning, he even called the father and daughter in the east room to help.
Liu Hongshan was still wondering if Jia Ming was secretly causing trouble for his eldest grandson.
After all, Jia Ming was a local from Yangping Town. Could he have ruined his eldest grandson's business?
"Yeah, I'm not selling it. That thing won't make much money.”
Liu Fugui had just finished eating a corn.
"I plan to sell something else and go to Mountain City to do business.”
"What is this?"
Liu Hongshan's hand, which was lighting his cigarette, immediately stopped.
"Go to the mountain city? Then what do you plan to sell in the mountain city?"
Liu Fugui grinned and pointed at the potatoes piled up like a small mountain in the central room.
"Master, do you have a share of the potatoes in the east room?”
"Of course, I also went down to the ground!”
Liu Hongshan snorted,
"Why? You want it?"
"Okay, five cents a catty. Give me five hundred catty first.”
He would only give 30% of other people's potatoes at most, but he was his grandfather. It was fine to give him more.
Liu Hongshan realized that he wasn't joking.
He pointed at the small potatoes that were about to be fed to the pigs in surprise.
"You want to sell this?"
How dare he charge five cents a catty for this?
This... in the village, no one would want it even if it was three cents per catty, right?
"Yes, it's five cents a catty."
Liu Fugui threw two corn husks toward the stove and raised his chin confidently.
"If it sells well, I'll buy more.”
However, the old man's expression was not calm anymore. He almost choked on a puff of smoke and could not breathe.
"You brat, why do you think you can do it on the spot?
The people in the city all ate high-quality big potatoes!
These little ones can't even be fed to pigs. Who would spend money to buy yours?”
Liu Fugui grinned when he saw this.
"Master, just tell me if you're selling or not. If you don't sell it, I'll go buy it from another shop!"
After all, everything was on paper now. He would not guarantee anything to anyone before it was done.
Even if the old man really didn't want to sell them, there were still so many potatoes in the village. There was no need to worry about the supply.
However, this old man wouldn't watch him spend his money on others, right?
Sure enough, the old man jumped up in the next second.
"Aiya! Sell! I'll sell it!"
He was really afraid that his grandson would be stupid again. Seeing that he did not listen to his advice, he could at least help him out by selling it to him, right?
However, that might not be the case if he bought someone else's.
He couldn't let his eldest grandson mess around with others again, right?
It wasn't easy for his eldest grandson to get better. In the past two days, there were already people who wanted to matchmake him.
Seeing that the old man had agreed, Liu Fugui quickly stuffed a stack of money into Liu Hongshan's hands.
Then, he took the sack and called the little girl to get busy in the central room.
At the same time.
Yangping Town.
The family in the east room was prepared to go all out.
After all, it was not easy for them to squeeze Liu Fugui away. In the future, this town would be dominated by their family.
He could have a good life of eating meat and drinking wine every day in the future.
However, when they saw that several chestnut stalls had popped up overnight, Jia Ming and the others were instantly dumbfounded.
Not only were the prices of these restaurants the same as theirs, but the most important thing was that the taste of their chestnuts was actually similar to that of Liu Fugui's!
No wonder Liu Fugui suddenly lowered the price!
Jia Ming's heart instantly turned cold.
So he was waiting for them here!
No wonder he chatted with those people for so long that afternoon…
This was clearly not letting them have a good time even if he did not sell it!
Now that everyone's price for chestnuts was the same, the other restaurants 'stir-fried chestnuts were even more delicious. Even if they lowered the price, few people would buy them.
Looking at the stall that no one cared about and the 200 catties of chestnuts that he had brought over this morning, his face turned green!
What kind of big money is this!
In particular, other than the two hundred catties, there were also the few hundred catties of chestnuts that Jia Ming had ordered at a high price in a moment of pride yesterday. They were all going to be smashed in his hands!
