Chapter 536: New Year's Eve, red envelopes(1/2)

After eating the stinky tofu, Ye Lin hugged Xiao Zhiqing and entered. Not only do they buy a lot of things here, but they also sell a lot of things.

Not everyone is like Ye Lin, who buys New Year’s goods in advance, and others have to be careful when buying New Year’s goods.

I even said that I would buy whatever I need, and that I could buy as late as possible, because it would be cheaper if I bought it late.

Only people like Ye Lin who are not short of money will not care about these things.

"Dad, firecrackers." When she reached the middle of the New Year market, Xiao Zhiqing pointed to a stall selling fireworks and firecrackers and said.

"Uh! You can't play with firecrackers." The reason why Ye Lin didn't buy firecrackers was because of Xiao Zhiqing.

Because he was afraid that Xiao Zhiqing would play with this. Although he felt that there were no firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, it was nothing compared to Xiao Zhiqing's safety.

"dad……"

"No, I can't buy it, you want something else!" Ye Lin felt that he would not compromise.

"I won't play." Xiao Zhiqing said with her fingers.

Seeing Xiao Zhiqing's appearance, Ye Lin smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Okay! Then buy some, but I agreed, you are not allowed to play."

"Yeah!" Xiao Zhiqing nodded quickly.

Ye Lin walked over and asked, "How do you sell firecrackers?"

"What kind of firecrackers do you want?"

"This kind of thing." Ye Lin pointed to a plate of red earth.

"This is a thousand rings, one yuan and eighty cents."

"One piece of eight! What about this?"

"This is ten thousand sounds, fifteen dollars."

The firecrackers of this era can only sound ten thousand, and they can only be more or less. Unlike the firecrackers in later generations, they can probably not be less than five thousand.

"What about this?"

"This is ten cannons plus one thunder, and it is also ten thousand sounds, and it is 251.

Ten cannons plus one thunder are actually ten small cannons plus one thunder. It was very common two thousand years ago, but it was basically rarely seen after two thousand years.

Of course, it can still be seen in some remote rural areas. This cannot be seen, it means that in cities, because cannons are not allowed to be fired.

However, even the cannon did not last for a few years. After the imperial capital and other cities, it was basically prohibited to set off fireworks and firecrackers after 2010.

"How do you sell this little zihua?" Ye Lin asked when he saw that there were children playing with the little zihua sold here.

"This one costs two cents a box."

"Where is the cannon?"

"A little bit of a cannon."

"In this way, I will give me fifty boxes of cannons, and I will give me fifty boxes of cannons, and I will give me six more cannons."

"Uh!" The cannon seller was stunned for a moment and asked, "I want so much?"

"Why, you don't have so many here?"

Ye Lin knew that there were shops behind the market for selling things next year, and this was just taken from the store to sell it here, so it was impossible that there were not so many.

"It's not that there is no, but how can you get it back if you want so much?"

"Why, don't you give it to me here? Don't worry, my house is very close to here and will arrive in a few minutes."

When he heard Ye Lin say this, the cannon sold him breathed a sigh of relief. If it was only a few minutes, there would be no problem. Just ask others to help him take a look.

"Okay, give it."

"Okay, how much do you calculate?"

"Okay." The cannon seller nodded, and then calculated: "Ten cannons plus one thunder and twenty-five one hanger, six hanger is one hundred and five, Xiaochihua 50 boxes, one box of two cents is ten yuan, one box of cannons is one cent per box, fifty boxes are five yuan, a total of one hundred and sixty-five."

"One hundred and sixty-five! Then I'll give you one hundred and seven, and you can get me a little whip of one hundred sounds."

"Okay, no problem. A 100-shot whip is 2 cents per cent. I'll give you twenty-five hangs for five dollars. What do you think?"

"Okay, that's it!"

"Why!"

Xiao Chihua and the cannons didn’t have much. Ye Lin took a bag for the cannons, mainly because there were too many firecrackers, so he needed the cannons to send them back.

Of course, if he hadn't hugged Xiao Zhiqing, these things would be easy for him.

Ye Lin returned home with the cannon seller. His mother, grandma and grandma Du were still getting oily. To be honest, Ye Lin really didn't catch a cold about this.

He likes to eat fresh food, which means he made it at that time. After frying it, it can be eaten until it is ready for a while. Ye Lin doesn't like it.

It’s useless for him to not like it! The elderly at home like to do this, so Ye Lin can only let them go.

Ye Lin doesn’t care about this little thing, just do whatever he wants!

"Son, what have you bought?"

Seeing Ye Lin coming back with someone and carrying so many things, Li Ran, who was making excitement, came out and asked.

"It's nothing, I bought some firecrackers."

"A little firecracker?" Li Ran looked at the backs of the cannon sellers, looked at the bags in Ye Lin's hand, shook his head and went in again.

"Just put it here." Ye Lin put the bag in his hand into the aisle.

Ye Lin didn't plan to put these things in the main hall, which was too dangerous, and he would just put them in the outside room in the future.

"Okay." The cannon seller nodded and put the firecrackers on the ground.

Ye Lin opened the door of the door and put the cannon in. After thinking about it, he took out a few boxes of cannons, and locked the door from outside.

He was not afraid of others stealing it, but that he was afraid that Xiao Zhiqing would come in and get it.

"For you." Ye Lin handed Xiao Zhiqing a box.

"Dad, how do you play this?"

"Look at it." Ye Lin opened a box of cannons, took out one from it, and threw it directly on the ground.

"Bang!"

"Hahaha, it's fun, it's fun." Xiao Zhiqing also quickly followed suit, took out one and threw it on the ground.

"Bang!"

"Dad, I learned it."

"Yeah!" Ye Lin nodded.

There is no danger in this kind of cannon breaking, and it is fine even if it sounds in your hand. First, there is not much gunpowder in it, and second, it is a safe cannon breaking.

"Okay, go play! But you can't go out."

"Yeah!" Xiao Zhiqing agreed and started playing in the yard.

The yard was covered with floor tiles, and the snow was cleaned up by Ye Lin. In addition to the snowman, it can be said that the yard is now dry.

After slamming the cannon, Xiao Zhiqing went crazy and ran to the main hall secretly. After a while, she fell down one of the two great-grandfathers and masters' chairs. She was shocked when she saw another old man. The little girl laughed happily.

In fact, the two old men did it on purpose. They were playing chess, and Xiao Zhiqing was playing cannon outside and they didn’t know.

Besides, if this little girl sneaked into the house, the two old men could not find it, but they just deliberately cooperated with her. Seeing her happy look, the two old men were also happy.

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the young Chinese New Year in the north will be cleaned on this day, and the same is true for Ye Lin's family.

Usually, when I buy New Year’s goods today, it only started after this day. At this time, Ye Lin’s family had already completed the New Year’s goods.

And there is a rule in the north that the daughter who has gone out cannot celebrate the New Year at her parents' home on this day.

Of course, this is this era, and there are very few rules that have been followed in later generations, and some places have even cancelled this.

However, in this era, no one dared to break this rule.

Ye Lin didn't know when this rule began, nor did he know who decided it. Anyway, if it were him, he wouldn't care.

But the old man couldn't do it. The old man was superstitious about this, so Ye Lin was originally going to let his sister come over, but his mother stopped him.

To put it bluntly, Ye Lin is just lazy. He wants his brother-in-law to come and help. After all, Ye Lin’s house is relatively large, so there are so many rooms that Ye Lin can clean alone. I don’t know when it will be cleaned.

However, since my mother didn't let her come, Ye Lin could only clean it alone. One day, Ye Lin cleaned more than a dozen houses of all sizes.

This cleaning is not only about cleaning the floor, the walls, and the roof. Although Ye Lin didn't understand, he still cleaned it as his mother told me.

This made Ye Lin exhausted. If he was in the space, it was just a matter of his thoughts, but outside, he had been busy for a day.

However, after working hard on this day, Ye Lin's family had nothing to do. He had already produced oil before the New Year, so he could eat it every day now.

On this day, my sister and brother-in-law came with two children, and at this time, the work they should have been done.

The two children came over and the house was bustling with crackling sounds everywhere. Of course, it was the three children playing with cannons.

My sister and brother-in-law stayed here until the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and when they left, they brought big and small bags.

Not only are there fried crispy meat, but also raw pork and beef and mutton. There is no way, my sister's house doesn't have these, so she can only bring them from here.
