After eating, Yan Zixiu helped clear away the dishes and asked his mother: "Mom, how many carrots and sweet potatoes do we still have in the house?"

"The carrots are about five to six hundred pounds, and the sweet potatoes are about five to six thousand pounds. They are all kept in the west room."

"Do you think the carrots and sweet potatoes tonight are delicious?"

"It's delicious. It's very delicious. I've never tasted anything so delicious. What's going on?"

Yan Zixiu smiled: "When washing carrots and sweet potatoes, I used a high-tech biological regulator developed by my teacher."

"Does your agriculture teacher still have this ability?"

When Yan Zixiu heard this, he realized that the master had become an agriculture teacher again. He hummed vaguely and said, "Fruits and vegetables improved with biological regulators are not only delicious, but also have great benefits for the body. Today I

I will prepare a batch of carrots and sweet potatoes tonight and go to the market early tomorrow morning. They will definitely sell well."

Mother said: "Don't you still have to shell corn at night? You are in better health, so don't be tired."

Yan Zixiu: "You don't have to stay up all night to peel the corn. Won't the thresher be brought back tomorrow morning? As long as you are willing to lend the thresher to everyone, you don't have to worry about no one to help. It is estimated that all the corn can be peeled in one afternoon.

.”

"Okay. You should go to bed early." Mother closed the main door and the main room door, and went to rest.

Yan Zixiu came to the west room with a kerosene lamp and uncovered the plastic sheet covering the carrots and sweet potatoes: "Wuyou, it's time to sprinkle the spiritual liquid." After Wuyou finished sprinkling it, Yan Zixiu found a dozen sacks and half of them

The bags were half filled with carrots and sweet potatoes. The carrots were about one hundred catties, and the sweet potatoes were two to three hundred catties.

Wuyou asked: "Why do you pretend to be so little?"

Yan Zixiu cried out in pain: "Brother Wuyou, I can't pull it even if it's too much. I'm in good health and can pull the cart on foot. I'm four or five miles away from the market."

"You are not used to using the Qiankun Ring. However, there are many people in the market, so you can't use the Qiankun Ring all the time. It would be too shocking. Then if you can't pull it with people, you can use animals to pull it."

"Whose family should I use? I don't have one at home. My uncle's family in the west has a donkey. He is very stingy, how can he be willing to borrow it?"

"Why do you need to borrow it? Can't you just take the money and rent it?"

Yan Zixiu slapped his head: "Oh, I'm used to being poor. I want to do everything by myself. Yes, I have money, a household worth ten thousand yuan. If I don't want to use his money in vain, my uncle will definitely be willing."

Wuyou smiled and said: "You don't know how rich you are now, and you can't imagine how rich you will be in the future."

Yan Zixiu also laughed: "Haha, please allow me to slowly adapt to the life of a rich man."

My uncle Ciming is next to the Yan family, with three main rooms, a kitchen on the east side, and a livestock shed. There is a corridor between the kitchen and the main house, which is connected to the Yan family.

Yan Zixiu walked across the aisle and asked: "Uncle, are you busy drinking tea?" (country dialect, it doesn't mean having dinner)

"Let's drink. Zixiu, are you back?" The uncle is 40 years old this year and is very handsome. He is busy working in the livestock shed. The eldest sister also came out of the kitchen: "Zixiu is back?" The eldest sister is not tall and fat.

He has a fat body and an ordinary appearance. Because he was poor, his uncle could not afford to go to school and was illiterate, so it was not easy for him to find a matchmaker. So he had no choice but to marry the eldest concubine. It is said that after the first blind date, the uncle cried with his head in his arms.

He probably felt that his handsomeness was a loss. However, although the eldest sister was poor, she was very kind, didn't care about things, and was generous. Sometimes her eldest uncle was in a bad mood and scolded her, and even hit her, but she smiled and said no.

care.

"I'm back. Uncle, I want to discuss something with you. Tomorrow morning, I want to borrow your donkey. One is to go to the market to sell some things, and the other is to bring back some corn threshing machines."

"Borrow a donkey?" the uncle said hesitantly.

Yan Zixiu smiled inwardly and said: "It's not just a loan, it's a favor for a friend. The friend is willing to give money, twenty yuan a morning." In fact, ten yuan is a lot, Yan Zixiu only gets three or four yuan a day.

salary.

The uncle rubbed his hands and said, "I don't have anyone from outside, so why should I give you any money?"

Da Jinzi also said: "That's right, why should I give you money?" Unexpectedly, her uncle glanced at her. Da Jinzi was silent. Yan Zixiu knew full well that Da Jinzi really didn't need money, but his uncle was pretending to be polite.

, Gu Guzi is afraid that the lie will come true.

Yan Zixiu took out his wallet, pulled out two large unity cards, and handed them to his uncle: "This is the real deal, uncle, take it first."

The uncle quickly took the money and said, "Don't worry, I will feed the donkey early tomorrow morning without any delay."

"Okay. Uncle, sister-in-law, please rest. I'm going back."

Yan Zixiu returned to the west room and loaded another 100 catties of carrots and 200 to 300 catties of sweet potatoes on the rack truck. Then he carried a kerosene lamp to the east room of the east courtyard, where he lived.

Of the four main rooms in the east courtyard, the two rooms on the east side belong to the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and the two rooms on the west side belong to my sister. My sister just got married and the house is still reserved for her. Of the two east rooms in the east, the one to the south is the spare kitchen, and the one to the west is the spare kitchen.

To the north is the place where Yan Zixiu and his second brother live together. Anyway, they are singles now, so it doesn't matter. However, the eldest brother, sister-in-law and second brother are not at home, and each has his own job. So in the entire east courtyard, today Yan Zixiu

one person.

The wick of the kerosene lamp emitted yellow-white light through the glass cover. Yan Zixiu sat at the desk in the east room, thinking a lot. What happened today is incredible. Is it true? Is it an illusion? Is it true?

Well, how is it possible? Call it an illusion, there are so many real changes. Do you want to go to the fairy mansion to verify it? He thought for a while and decided that he should sleep, as he would have to get up early tomorrow.

He doesn't want to stay up late now, because he has Xian Fu and has confidence. Except for work and study that require staying up late, other meaningless late nights are all manifestations of lack of confidence in tomorrow.

After blowing out the kerosene lamp, Yan Zixiu took off his clothes and lay on the bed. He felt that his heart was up and down, and he was not sleepy at all. He was not going to have insomnia again, was he? He had experienced insomnia a lot over the years. At this time, Wuyou said: "

Your nervous system is too excited now. Traditional Chinese medicine says that qi and blood rise and yang does not enter yin."

"What should we do?"

"Like this. First, gently focus on the soles of your feet. I will tell you the next step after a while."

"Okay." Yan Zixiu gently put his attention on the soles of his feet. If his thoughts ran away, he would pull them back, and if they ran away again, he would pull them back... After a while, Wuyou's voice came: "Now

Focus on your abdomen. As you breathe, your abdomen will rise and fall naturally. Follow this ups and downs gently." Yan Zixiu obeyed and did as he was told. He felt that there were fewer and fewer distracting thoughts, his body and mind became more and more relaxed, and he became more and more empty...

"Gegeigen..." A sound of rooster crow came, and Yan Zixiu opened his eyes: "Ah, it's dawn. As soon as I close my eyes and open them, the whole night has passed? This sleep is really comfortable." He

I looked at my watch. It was half past six. I got up quickly, got dressed, picked up the toiletries and went to the pressurized water well. I put down the utensils, then went to the kitchen to get a spoonful of water, poured it into the pressurized water well and started to slurp.

Pressure water. This spoonful of water is called water diversion. Without water diversion, groundwater will not be easily pressed up.

His mother had gotten up early and was sweeping the yard. Yan Zixiu was washing his face and asked, "Mom, how was your rest last night?"

"It's great. I haven't had such a good night's sleep in a long time."

"Me too, I haven't had such a good sleep in a long time."

Just as he was talking, the uncle led the donkey and came from the aisle: "Zixiu, are you up?"

"Good morning, uncle."

"You wash your face first, and I'll put the car on."

"I've washed it." Yan Zixiu went over and flattened the cart so that it would be easier for the donkey to hitch it.

The mother asked: "Would you like something to eat first?" In rural areas, people usually work for a while before having breakfast. In rural elementary schools, they also go to school in the early morning and then come back for breakfast. Yan Zixiu's home is four miles away from the elementary school.

I think back then, I traveled six times a day in the morning, noon and afternoon, without seeing the sun at both ends, and I walked tens of thousands of miles just to go to elementary school.

"No, I'll just go to the market and buy two sesame cakes." Yan Zixiu found another fruit knife, took an enamel plate for serving food, filled a thermos bottle of cold water, and put it in the car. He said to his uncle

: "Uncle, please lend me your scale."

"Okay." After a while, the uncle brought the scale and led the donkey to pull the cart to the road outside the yard. "You have to take good care of the donkey."

"Don't worry. Uncle, how do you sell carrots and sweet potatoes in the market now?"

"Carrots cost 15 cents, sweet potatoes cost 30 cents."

"Okay, got it, I'm leaving."

Lao Wan Ji is located in the west of Xinliang Village, covering an area of ​​four and a half miles. There are fairs on single days in the lunar calendar, on the ninth, nineteenth and twenty-ninth day of the lunar month. The fair is from the morning to after breakfast. The fair is from the morning to after lunch.

.

Yan Zixiu was afraid that he would be late and there would be no good place, so he didn't chat with Wuyou all the way and hurried on. When he arrived at the east end of Laowanji, he saw that he was still late. Good guy, there were people everywhere. Looking at this situation, it was also

I couldn't get in. I had no choice but to find an open space at the east end of Jitong. I found a dozen bricks and padded the front and back of the cart. I untied the donkey and tied it to a tree nearby. Then I opened the sack and exposed the carrots and sweet potatoes.

Come on. Something moisturized by spiritual liquid, with a complete and smooth skin, quite attractive. He rinsed the enamel plate and fruit knife with water, washed a carrot and a sweet potato, cut them into small pieces, and put them on the plate. They were red.

, white, white, and juicy. Everything was ready, and he began to shout: "Delicious carrots, delicious sweet potatoes, fresh and sweet, taste first before buying, this is a rare opportunity."

I shouted several times, but most of the passers-by looked at me, but did not stop. Yan Zixiu wondered in his heart, every word of mine was true, why no one came. I shouted several times, but still no one came.

He understood a little bit, no wonder everyone was setting up stalls in the market. At the entrance of the village, those who had not bought anything were in a hurry to enter, and those who had bought something were in a hurry to leave. The inertia of action was too great and they could not stop.

Wuyou showed up and said, "Let me shout for you. Hey, delicious carrots and delicious sweet potatoes, fresh and sweet. Try them first before buying. It's a rare opportunity."

The shouting didn't matter, almost everyone looked over, and there was a bird shouting, which was really rare. People who had never seen a parrot asked each other, what kind of bird is this? It's so beautiful. Whoops, a large group of people gathered around

Yan Zixiu was startled and asked Wuyou in his heart: "How can everyone see you and hear you?"

"I want people to see and hear, so I can be seen and heard."

Yan Zixiu gave Wuyou a thumbs up: "Please continue to perform."
