Chapter 47 - Unlucky

Chapter 47 Bad Luck

Author: Shen Hu

Chapter 47 Bad Luck

Su Qingqing got into action whenever she disagreed, and Jiang Baoqin was not a doormat, so of course she responded with retaliation. The two lesbians got into a fight over Song Minghan's trouble.

"What are you two doing standing here?"

Jiang Xinyu and Jiang Yuzhu were startled by Chen Xiuyun who spoke from behind.

Chen Xiuyun had already heard the sound of the two people yelling and fighting over there, and they also vaguely mentioned words like "Song Zhiqing".

The two sisters stopped eavesdropping. After closing the courtyard door, they drove Xiao Hei back to the kennel and followed Comrade Chen Xiuyun into the house.

We must keep the New Year's Eve tonight. Comrade Chen Xiuyun just made peace at home to fry fried dough sticks tomorrow. He knew there was movement in the brigade, but he didn't know what happened specifically.

Mother and daughter gathered around a fire pot roasting sweet potatoes and talked about what had just happened and other things. Jiang Xinyu couldn't keep her eyes open until she went to sleep.

Since Jiang Xinyu came here, her schedule has been very normal. She didn't stay up late at all. She fell asleep by then and slept soundly. But tonight, Chen Yi talked to her in her dream all night long, and she felt good when she got up. tired.

The next day, Chen Xiuyun got up earlier. First she resurrected the noodles of the fat cake, and then resurrected the noodles of the jujube cake. After covering them, she started frying the fried dough sticks.

When the two sisters got up, the fried dough sticks were all out of the pan. They ate them in one bite. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and full of fragrant oil. Jiang Xinyu didn't like this bite, so she tasted one and stopped eating. She just felt the aroma of being distilled once.

After frying the fried dough sticks, they heated up the leftovers from last night. After the three of them finished eating, the two sisters fed the other open mouths in the family, and then started reading and doing questions again.

Yes, mother and daughter had nothing to do today and started reading again. Other families have started to visit relatives, so no one should visit Jiang Xinyu's yard today.

Chen Xiuyun read for two hours, then got up and steamed the hair cake and jujube cake.

We are running out of dates at home, so we will have to go to someone else’s house in the brigade to get some.

"Mom, are you going to sell in the county tomorrow?"

Chen Xiuyun nodded, "Make a few pots today and a few more in the evening, and sell them together tomorrow morning. Your eldest sister and Zhang Hua will come back the day after tomorrow, so make more for her to take away."

The primary school in the village will start school after the 15th National Day. Chen Xiuyun has no time to do business during the teaching period, so she can only go there during the break. Of course, she wants to sell more before school starts.

As expected, there were a lot of birds in front of Jiang Xinyu's house today, other houses in the village were bustling, and her house seemed isolated from the rest of the world.

Jiang Youfu and Jiang Guisheng's family didn't have any relatives here today, but Ma Meili and Zhang Fengmei took their children to their brothers' houses. They were both from other villages and left after eating early in the morning.

However, the mother and daughter didn't think it was a big deal. Wouldn't it be nice to have good food and drink and no one to make trouble?

Early the next morning, before dawn, Chen Xiuyun and Jiang Xinyu went to the county with their things.

I carried three baskets today, and they were all full, more than twice as much as usual. Although it was the second day of the new year, there were many people coming to the black market to sell and buy goods. Chen Xiuyun carried a lot. Sold quickly too.

Jiang Xinyu waited at the roadside as agreed with Chen Xiuyun for her to sell out and come to pick up the goods. However, she did not expect that Chen Xiuyun would sell out so fast today. When she came again, Jiang Xinyu said coquettishly: "Mom, take me to see the goods."

Chen Xiuyun didn't want to take her daughter to that kind of place. After all, it was dangerous, but her daughter had begged her more than once.

This time, Jiang Xinyu got his wish.

Jiang Xinyu thought that the black market was like a market or something, but she didn't expect that this so-called black market was just a few people standing or squatting at the entrance of the alley. The entrance of the alley was a crossroads, and there were people on all four streets, buying.

They didn't seem to be very densely packed with people selling them. They looked wary, and they were no different from thieves.

There were so many people today. It was the time to visit relatives and everyone wanted to buy gifts. The pastries brought by Chen Xiuyun were very popular, and they were surrounded when they arrived.

Jiang Xinyu just came to see the world, but she also helped pack pastries, which cost at least four yuan per person, and they were sold out in less than five minutes.

Chen Xiuyun is sorting out the money. Each penny has weight in his hand.

Jiang Xinyu looked up while holding the basket, and saw several people wearing red sleeve bands standing at the entrance of the alley, heading this way.

She felt that she was unlucky. The first time she came to see the world, she encountered a red sleeve band. "Mom, put it in your pocket. It's time to run, someone is coming."

"Stand there, don't move!" the man wearing the red sleeve band shouted sharply.

The scene was quiet for a moment, but those who dared to come here to do business and buy things were old fritters, and it would be wise to listen to them.

A group of people fled in all directions. Chen Xiuyun held two baskets with one hand and held Jiang Xinyu's hand tightly with the other, pulling her out and rushing out.

When Jiang Xinyu saw the red sleeve band in front of her, she directly smashed the only basket in her hand. The force would not hurt anyone, but it could clear the way.

The mother and daughter left the alley smoothly, but they were still running wildly and collided with a bicycle coming out from the opposite corner. Jiang Xinyu fell to the ground and her knees hurt.

"Jiang Xinyu?"

Jiang Xinyu's head was buzzing with pain when she heard a male voice calling her, and she looked up in surprise.

Chen Xiuyun also stumbled, but not as hard as Jiang Xinyu. While supporting Jiang Xinyu, she looked at Chen Yi who was riding a bicycle and asked: "Chen Yi, why are you here?"

Chen Yi parked the bicycle and helped Jiang Xinyu up with Chen Xiuyun.

"Is something okay?" Chen Yi had worry in his eyes.

Jiang Xinyu shook her head.

It was not safe to escape here, so Chen Xiuyun hung the two baskets in her hands on Chen Yi's car and said to Chen Yi: "Do your aunt a favor and take Xinyu away quickly."

Chen Yi could probably guess what kind of situation the two of them were encountering, so naturally there was nothing wrong with him, "Auntie, what should you do?"

Chen Xiuyun pulled off the wrapping cloth, exposed her facial features, and waved her hand: "Take Xinyu away quickly, I will follow behind."

Chen Yi was riding a bicycle with two baskets hanging on the front and Jiang Xinyu on the back. Jiang Xinyu saw her mother turn a corner and change direction.

Jiang Xinyu's knees are still hurting. They were so painful from the fall just now.

"Where did you get your bicycle?"

Jiang Xinyu already has a deep understanding of the prices these days. A pound of white flour is only 17 cents, and there is a ticket. Brown rice is 7 cents a pound, eggs are 5 cents a pound, and bicycles cost 15 cents and upwards. Captain Li's

That Fenghuang brand car cost 180 yuan, it was definitely a luxury item.

Chen Yi said: "I just bought it today."

Jiang Xinyu felt so sad. Ever since she started doing business, she had calculated how much she sold each time. Adding in more than eight yuan today, she only made less than thirty yuan. Chen Yi already had a bicycle.
