After the table and the wooden frame were finished, Shen Xuanqing did not ask Wang Chengzi to send it home. After the mule cart was set up, he and Shen Yaoqing went to Wang Mutou's house. The table and the wooden frame had to be pulled to Jixing Town, so why bother to send them home in vain.

As soon as the two of them entered the door, they saw four wooden frames placed in the courtyard.

Wang Mutou was planing wood. When he saw them coming over, he put down the planer in his hand and said, "The remaining two will be ready in two days, or should they be left in the yard?"

Shen Xuanqing patted the wooden frame to see if it was steady, and replied, "The two troublesome ones are sent home, these four are enough for the time being."

"Okay." Wang Mutou nodded, and after the two of them were satisfied with what they had seen, he helped lift the wooden frame and table onto the mule cart.

Wang Chengzi also came out to help, and together with Shen Yaoqing, tied the contents of the cart with long hemp ropes, so that the mule cart could run on the road without fear of falling.

Four wooden frames were stacked on top of each other, tied together anyway, and there was also a table with two meat chops. Such a large truck weighed a lot of things.

Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing sat in front of the scooter, one left and one right, the whip swung in the air, and the mule walked forward.

"I've been running a lot recently, and it's done in two days, so I told him to rest for a few days." Shen Yaoqing said with a smile.

The mule that I bought was tall and strong, strong, strong, and hard-working. In the eyes of the country people, such a beast was born to pull a cart and grind a mill.

"That's not it." Shen Xuanqing, who was sitting on the other side, smiled and said, "Go back and eat more fine grass, the sweet nest root at home is not better, chop it up and mix it with bran bran and chai bean noodles, it is easy to feed. "

Most of the mules fed at home are fine fodder, and they have not been treated badly. Naturally, the animals who work hard for the family like this must be served well, otherwise they will be sick and have no energy, and they will only be fat and strong.

"Naturally." Shen Yaoqing nodded in agreement.

The two of them arrived in Jixing Town. It was in the morning when there were many people, and the street in front of the shop was crowded.

The brothers were unloading the truck and moving things, and they were busy for a while. Adjacent to the west of the shop was a noodle restaurant. When they got up early, they sold pancakes sprinkled with sesame seeds.

The noodle restaurant is run by an old couple. The restaurant has been around for a few years. The old lady and the old man are very powerful. They are still in charge of the house. The son and daughter-in-law come over every day to work in the back kitchen, and they hired two guys to run the hall and shout.

Recently, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing were often running to Jixing Town. When they were too busy to eat at Yang's house, they ate a bowl of noodles at the west neighbor's house, which was so close and convenient.

The house next door to the east is a shop opened by a fortune-teller, and the guise hanging at the door has some words such as Zhanmeng Dagua, but Shen Xuanqing has been running into the shop these days, and he has never seen the east neighbor house open the door once, listening to the noodle shop. Mrs. Zhao said that she went outside for a wander, and she didn't know when she would come back.

The shop has been cleaned up. They carried the table and put it at the door. Then they moved down four wooden shelves, two on the left and right, leaving an aisle for the middleman to walk. Later, they would hang meat on the wooden shelves, like rabbits, chickens and ducks. After slaughtering, there is no need to use iron hooks to hook, just hang them with twisted hemp ropes.

Shen Xuanqing looked inside and looked outside, the originally empty shop gradually increased, he looked at it with a smile and said, "That's it."

Because the table at the door is longer than usual, blocking most of the way, it doesn't matter, people are standing inside to chop meat, so it is enough to leave an opening for walking.

He didn't have a knife in his hand, but he still raised his hand to try it out. He didn't say anything, but he was sure in his heart that it would be like this in the future when he chopped meat, and then he put the chopped meat on the table and tried it.

Shen Yaoqing moved the wooden frame firmly. When Hu Ping was running a grocery store, he laid bricks on the ground to make it fairly level. After the wooden frame was placed, it did not shake, so he smiled and said, "Just right."

Shen Xuanqing, who was standing in front of the table, heard it, turned his head and saw that there was also a smile on his face. Before it opened today, he moved the table at the door back and put it next to the wall.

"Big brother, watch here, I'll go to the iron shop, and come back to eat a bowl of noodles next door." He said and left.

Shen Yaoqing agreed, and when he saw the mule gasping and sniffing at the door, he walked into Ermenzi, went to the haystack in the backyard to hold a bale of hay, and picked up two wooden barrels on the side of the aisle against the wall, one old and one new.

In front of the butcher's shop, there is no horse-tethering stake and no manger, but there is a bluestone platform between the east and the thigh. Stretch the thread ends in the shop, or peel the beans of your choice, whatever you want to use.

He took off the car cover, put the hay on the bluestone slab, greeted Mrs. Zhao at the noodle restaurant in the west, and went to the street to fetch water with a new wooden bucket.

Just after lunch, there were not many people in the noodle restaurant. Mrs. Zhao, with a green marigold pattern on her head, was sitting at the door of the noodle restaurant pounding dried peppers, and she agreed.

Just now, Shen Xuanqing greeted her as she walked past her door, telling her that she was still smiling until the corners of her eyes were wrinkled.

Don't say that young men like color, but older women also like to say a few words to the handsome and talkative young man.

This has nothing to do with other people, not all people are like this. When they see good-looking men and women, most people will pay attention and want to take a look.

One Shen Xuanqing was handsome and tall, the other Shen Yaoqing was not bad, and he was more fond of joking than Shen Xuanqing. Recently, the two of them gradually became familiar faces among the neighbors.

The butcher shop went west, until there was a square well in the open space at the end of the street. It was a good well that a rich man surnamed Qian in Jixing Town used to do good deeds. It was nearly twenty years ago. After several years of drought and no rain, the Qingxi River has dried up. Everywhere along the river is thinking about how to drill a well to get water. After the well was drilled, until now, no money is charged for water.

Like Fenggu Town, Jixing Town is also built on the banks of the Qingxi River and has docks for boats. However, Xixing Street is far away from the river, and people nearby have to cross most of the town to fetch water from the river, and most of them come to this well. beat.

Shen Yaoqing took a bucket of water and brought it back, poured most of it into the old wooden bucket, and put it in front of the mule to drink.

He pulled over the chair in the corner of the shop and sat down to rest, while waiting for Shen Xuanqing to come back.

Shen Xuanqing's bedding and clothes were brought here. The stove in the backyard was already set up to dry, and the stove was covered with a straw shed to protect it from the wind and rain. Even firewood was pulled from the house by a cart to save it from being on the street. purchase.

Now just wait for the auspicious day of the day after tomorrow to open for business.

Before Shen Xuanqing came back, he welcomed Old Yangtou and Yan Shi first.

"Master, Mistress, sit down, the second kid is going to the iron shop." Shen Yaoqing got up quickly, although he didn't apprentice, he kept shouting after Shen Xuanqing, so he seemed to be close.

Old Yang looked at the furnishings, raised his hand and pressed the table, and patted a few wooden racks. He nodded when he saw that he was sure.

Yan Shi also looked around, and it was enough to make it clean and tidy. She had a red cloth bag in her hand, and when she came in, she didn't even bother to sit, and said, "This red paper cutout is about to be pasted. There is a room, more red to add joy, and the eyes are about to open."

She was so kind, and since she brought everything, Shen Yaoqing naturally wouldn't shirk, and said with a smile, "When I came, my mother was still saying, I should buy some stickers, Erqing and I thought that we should not be in a hurry."

Yan opened the bag, and there was still half a bowl of paste in it. She took out the bowl and put it on the meat chop table and said, "You young people are like this, don't be in a hurry, you will open the door for business in two days, but you can't do it early. Get it done, otherwise, it's time to be in a hurry."

She took out the contents, and because Shen Yaoqing was tall, she instructed that this one should be posted here, and that one would be posted there.

Old Yang had a cigarette stick pinned to his waist. He just touched his hand and thought of borrowing a fire from the west neighbor's house. He squatted at the door and smoked a couple of puffs. However, Mr. Yan saw him and scolded: "Damn old man, it's no use following me. I don’t know how to help me, I’m either wandering around or patronizing cigarette sticks, go and put this on the door of the second boy’s house.”

Old Yangtou was scolded all day long, and his expression did not change for a long time. He put the cigarette stick around his waist, took the red paper and dipped some paste with his fingers and went to the back.

After Yan Shi finished scolding him, he turned to look at the clip art that Shen Yaoqing had pasted on the walls on both sides, his face became very fast, and his face became pleasant, and he nodded in approval: "Well, this is a good sticker, and the height is just right."

Shen Yaoqing put red paper on the door of the shop outside, holding back a smile.

Mrs. Yan also went outside to see, and complained while making him work: "That old man of your master, yesterday I washed the dough and told him that he couldn't hear him, but he didn't come for a long time, and your sister-in-law was not at home, so he was busy in the tavern. , I couldn't move the noodle tank, and I couldn't see anyone, so I had to lay it down on the ground and get out."

"When I finished washing, I hummed and helped me up. The old thing came back from the door, and I was angry. I told him to wash the face tank, but he forgot and went out to play."

No wonder Master didn't say a word when he was scolded today, because he was guilty.

Because he is an elder, Shen Yaoqing can't talk much about it. He just smiled and said to Mrs. Yan, "Don't be angry. We will open in two days. You have to come over to the town."

Yan Shi pursed his lips and smiled.

After a while, Shen Xuanqing took back the big iron pot. The iron pot was tied with hemp rope. There was a cross knot in the middle of the pot. He took it back together.

The days passed quickly, everything was ready in the shop, and the auspicious opening day arrived in the blink of an eye.

The sun was just right in the middle of the morning, and Lu Gu was packed. Inside was Xiao Lingjun's diaper and a small set of clothes. The child, Lazar, was different from adults. He couldn't speak. If you stay for one night, you can't take it with you. It's not spring, summer, and it's cold if you don't change it in time after urinating.

Because he didn't know when he would come back tomorrow, he brought more milk nuts, a total of 16, and carried them in a basket. By the way, he also put the burden in the big bamboo basket.

A basket is all of Xiaoling's things. He doesn't have anything himself, just a purse in his arms. If he needs money, he can handle it.

When it opens tomorrow, it must be slaughtered and shouted in the morning. Jixing Town is farther than Fenggu Town, so I have to leave earlier. Brother Xiaoling is really young. It was negotiated to go one day earlier, and the family let Shen Shunwang and Shen Yuping take care of them for the past two days.

Shen Xuanqing was going to pull the big pig over in a mule cart today. Since no one was watching in the shop, the rabbits, chickens and ducks that were pulled yesterday were put in the Yang family for now. As for Lu Gu and the others, Shen Yaoqing had already borrowed Lin Shouyi. The family's mule cart, after all, is the size of a fat pig, and once it is lifted onto the cart, there is no place for people to sit.
