Through the small days of farming

Chapter 14 Big Brother Bai Cong

It took Bai Niannian three days to sell out the remaining chestnuts. He counted them, added the money from selling the vegetables, and deducted the money he spent, and he made a total of 570 yuan.

After working from dawn to dusk (?) for a few days, he earned almost a month's rent. The most important thing is that he was doing business without capital, and all the money he earned was profit. However, the more he earned, the more he spent. Life requires money for everything, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, firewood and charcoal.

Living a life of eating rice every day, when the chicken is finished, I start to buy pork. This is also an expense. If I don’t eat meat, how can I raise the cubs to be strong and strong.

Now the vegetables eaten at home are basically bought.

Charcoal is also consumed quickly, with the old quilts from their house, the quilts he bought in the town and the quilts 'borrowed' from his uncle's house, it is not cold at night, sometimes it is too hot .

"Good morning, Aunt Xie." Bai Niannian came to his booth and greeted Aunt Xie who seemed to have come earlier.

"It's getting late, what time is it now." Aunt Xie shook her head, not agreeing with his words.

"Yeah." Bai Niannian responded indifferently. After getting along for a few days, he probably also understood the character of this prostitute. He usually looked cold, but he was born with this appearance, and his words were too direct. Not good at communicating with people.

Just like just now, he just said hello habitually, and the other party answered him seriously.

Aunt Xie has a good personality, but she doesn't like people when she speaks.

Bai Niannian was very happy to have such a person doing business beside him. As for the person on the other side, he hadn't appeared in the past few days, and he didn't know what kind of person he was.

He only came here for a few days, and he met twice, because he was jealous of the booming business of the stall next door, and some messy things happened.

He had inquired about it from the side, and his neighbor who hadn't come yet seemed to be a difficult person to get along with.

It always feels like there are a lot of things.

"Thank you, Auntie, do you know where there is a dog for sale?" Bai Niannian went to a place that sells dogs yesterday, and they all looked sick and cute, but he didn't keep pets, so he didn't need to be fancy. The useless dog, Aunt Xie, who does business next door, seems to have lived in the town for many years, he should know where there are housekeeper dogs for sale.

He thought, sell one back in a few days, he will go to see it first, and when the little cub's hands and feet get better, it won't be so boring to have a puppy at home with the two of them.

"A housekeeping puppy?" Aunt Xie asked.

"Well, there are two little guys at home on weekdays, so I'm a little worried." Bai Niannian nodded sharply.

He thought about it and said, "There are puppies for sale in the next street here, but they are not suitable for us. My family does not have one, but the bitch in my neighbor's house next door gave birth to a few little brothers, only one month old, and they can't keep them. There are so many, and they are about to be given away or sold, do you want to sell them?"

"Hmm, can I go and have a look first before making a decision whether to buy it or not?" Bai Niannian said yes, but he had to take a look first.He is not afraid to buy him with money, but if Aunt Chen says to give him away, he is still a little worried.

"Okay, their dogs are very fierce, I think you will like it, when will you go and see with me?" Aunt Xie talked about the topic of interest, her expression remained the same, but she talked more.

"It's better to hit the sun than choose the day, how about selling the things?" He hasn't seen a one-month-old puppy for a long time. The dogs in the last days are tall and fierce.

Two cubs can't take care of a puppy, but he can!

Puppies should be easy to take care of, right?

As for the thought in his mind that he would buy a puppy in a few days, he had already put it to the back of his mind.

The puppy is well trained and can be a great helper.

He came home at noon and told the cubs that he would be back later in the evening.

Bai Niannian had been looking forward to it for a whole day, and finally he was looking forward to the end of the market. He had already packed his things, so he waited for Aunt Xie to pack up and go to his neighbor's house to watch the dog.

A shadow suddenly cast in front of him, Bai Niannian looked up and saw a person he didn't want to see.

"Brother Nian... why are you here?"

Bai Niannian pursed his lips, "What? Can't I be here?"

"No! I didn't mean that!!" Bai Cong stood in front of Bai Niannian with complicated emotions. When his parents were alive, Bai Niannian was the most favored child in the family. The two men, the second brother and the younger brother, are still pampered. Whatever food, clothing and clothing they have at home is given to Bai Niannian first, and it is clear that he will be the one who will take care of their second elder in the future!

It's a pity that the two old ones were gone before he could take care of him.

That's why he watched himself and his second brother's elder brother bullying him with cold eyes. At first, he was a little uneasy, feeling a little sorry for his father and mother who asked them to take care of his last words before they left, but thinking of falling into this situation, he couldn't help but feel sad. A faint pleasure stopped him.

Day after day, year after year.

Gradually, he got used to it.

After such a long time, I saw his younger brother again, Bai Niannian who was doted on by his parents, showing up in the market in a panic to sell things.

Seeing the contempt in his eyes, Bai Niannian felt an unknown fire welling up in his heart.

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants were the most looked down upon in ancient times. People in the village would rather work on the land for the rest of their lives, and they would not be a merchant if the weather was not good and they would not have enough food or clothing.

In this dynasty, being a businessman would be looked down upon.

But so what?If you look down on it, you can look down on it, and other people's eyes can't be eaten.

They are all about to come to an end, and they still care about other people's eyes?Then he would have been unable to live with the two cubs.

He is not from this dynasty, he cannot understand that class concept, his own status is more important than life.

So what if you become a merchant?

So what if you can't get fame in the future after becoming a merchant?

Think about people like them who have worked on the land all their lives and have no access to schools, why do they think about such long-term things?He really didn't understand their thinking.

Obviously, the current food and clothing is the most important.

How about one of his brothers come out and sell things in public?

It didn't hinder him!

"It's not good for you to come out like this... Where's your man?" Bai Cong said to him with a look of caring for you.

"Hehe, so what if my brother comes out to show his face? Is he eating yours or drinking yours? Is it blocking your way? Brother! Brother!" Bai Niannian sneered and turned back directly.

"How did you become like this? You are simply unreasonable!" Bai Cong was so angry at his words that his hands trembled.

"What have I become? Why don't you know me? It's because of you that I became like this. If it weren't for you, would I have become what I am now? Brother, this is for me, yours Doesn't conscience hurt?" Be angry, be angry, he is not the Bai Niannian who allows them to bully him, if you dare to bully him, be prepared to be retaliated by him.

He hasn't gone to settle accounts with them yet, but he took the initiative to come to them.

"How did you talk to your brother?"

"Oh, do you still remember that you are my elder brother? Why didn't you say you were my elder brother when I was bullied by my sister-in-law? Why didn't you remember that you were my elder brother when I was bullied by your son? I was sold to the town Why didn’t you say you were my elder brother when the old man on the bed was a concubine?” Seeing him blushing with anger, not knowing whether he was angry or ashamed, Bai Niannian felt much more at ease, happiness is based on other people’s Beyond the pain, this sentence still makes sense.

"What? You haven't fulfilled your brother's duty, and you still want to teach me?" Seeing that he wanted to speak, Bai Niannian spoke first.

"You...how did you become like this now?!"

"I can't help it either. The man in the family went to serve in the military and hasn't come back for a few years. There are only two younger brothers and I in the house. We can't lift our hands and shoulders. If we don't come out to do business, will we starve to death at home or will my brother support us? ?" Bai Niannian asked sincerely, he doesn't do business, so the whole family is going to drink northwest wind?

Moreover, he remembered that this good elder brother of his had a lot of money in his hand, and even raised an outhouse in the town. Didn't his two sister-in-laws regret exchanging him for money now?

"Well, I still have something to do, I will come to you next time."

Bai Cong dropped those words and left in embarrassment.

Bai Niannian breathed a sigh of relief, feeling refreshed, and felt that the air was much fresher.

Sure enough, life will be better (?)

Turning around, she said to Aunt Xie who was stunned, "Let's go, sorry, I wasted some time, go see the puppy."
