The farmer has a mall

Chapter 17

"Two hundred Wen?"

Xiao Liu said in surprise.

"What two hundred Wen, your man is worth this money? It's two taels!"

Little Liu Shi stood up abruptly, almost dropping the oil-paper bag in his hand to the ground.

"What, two taels! This, this...why give so much."

Two taels of silver, that is the income of an ordinary person for four to five months!
"No, I didn't dare to answer at first, but my mother said, don't worry about it, just take it for me."

Gu Laishhou was even more proud.

Sure enough, his mother loves him the most!
When Xiao Liu heard that her mother-in-law had spoken, she immediately felt relieved.

She has the best relationship with her mother-in-law in the Gu family, and she listens to her the most.

Since the mother-in-law agrees, it means that Nan Yatou's business can definitely be done.

Doesn't her husband-in-law have a salary of two taels of silver every month?

Three taels a month, 24 taels a year!
Xiao Liu clutched her chest and felt a little breathless.

In order to marry Gu Chengguang, the father-in-law sold the land passed down from his ancestors for more than 70 taels.

Can his husband earn so much in a year?
Little Liu, who felt a little unreal, sat by the bed and relaxed for a while.

Gu Laishhou happily picked up a piece of meat from the oil paper bag and fed it to her mouth.

Chewing the fragrant braised pork in his mouth, Xiao Liu sighed with emotion.

A good mother-in-law is rewarded for being a good person, this is the end of her life.

"I'm going to recruit Nan Yatou in the next few days. You stay at home and hide from your sister-in-law. Don't be at a disadvantage. I'll talk about things when I come back."

Xiao Liu nodded in response, feeling very warm in her heart.

Let's see who will say that her man is useless in the future, who can earn three taels of silver a month if they are useful?
There is nowhere to find such a considerate and profitable man with a lantern!

However, after Gu Nanyan told Gu Laishhou about the matter, she stayed at home for the past few days.

I don't know if she is growing up, but Mrs. Liu found that her granddaughter's appetite has increased dramatically recently.

Almost eat whatever you catch.

Sometimes before meal time, Gu Nanyan was so hungry that he would pull a few holly leaves outside the door and chew them in his mouth through the courtyard wall.

Liu looked at the holly tree that was still quite lush, and it was all gone in just a few days.

From then on, Mrs. Liu got up early every day to steam a large pot of steamed buns and keep them hot in the stove at any time.

At this moment, Gu Nanyan was digging earthworms with his two children in the yard.

Earthworms are commonly known as Quzhi, and traditional Chinese medicine is called Dilong.

Gu Nanyan told Liu Shi that earthworms can clear away heat and relieve asthma, and if you catch dozens of them, you can sell them for a few pennies at the drugstore.

Even so, when she saw Gu Nanyan's hungry eyes glowing green and watching the earthworm gulp, Liu couldn't help shivering, and hurriedly grabbed the steamed bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

Seeing this, Zhao'er at the side took out a piece of candy from his small pocket and stuffed it into Gu Nanyan's hand.

After Zhao'er's condition stabilized, she became very attached to Gu Nanyan, and often saw him follow Gu Nanyan upside down with his chubby legs upside down.

Sometimes when Gu Nanyan slept until the sun was high, he would wrap himself in a thick padded jacket, sit with his calves crossed quietly beside her bed and wait.

As soon as Gu Nanyan opened her eyes, she could see a chubby little face smiling toothlessly at her.

Then he stuffed the snack Liu gave him into Gu Nan's cigarette holder.

Even Aunt Cui sighed, how did she give birth to such a sycophant.

After Li Xu's injury was almost healed, he joined Zhao'er and wandered around Gu Nanyan all day long.

Mrs. Liu was chatting with Aunt Huang next door, and seeing Gu Nanyan carrying one on her back and another hanging on her leg, she couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.

"The longer your Nanmaid grows, the more beautiful she is. No wonder people like her."

Aunt Huang was smiling, with two deep dimples showing on her round face.

When Mrs. Liu heard the words, she was as happy as if she had picked up money: "What is beautiful is better than the girls in our village. It's just like that in the capital."

Having said that, the smugness in the corners of his eyes couldn't be hidden, and the brows were flying up.

The corners of Aunt Huang's mouth twitched, feeling that this topic could not be continued, so she laughed dryly: "I just heard Nan girl say that tomorrow I will take you to the town to play?"

At this moment, Liu's eyebrows are about to fly.

"Isn't it? You said you were going to go shopping in the town, so you still dragged me along."

"You said that there are so many jobs waiting in this family, how can you have the time."

"This child just can't leave me for a moment, and it doesn't taste good when he can't see me."

Huang: "..."

If she hadn't seen Gu Nanyan gnaw on the bark with her own eyes, she would have believed it!

How did you find out that the food is not delicious?
Your granddaughter almost eats people, okay?

Mrs. Huang lived next door, and she took great care of Gu Nanyan's grandfather and grandson on weekdays, and often came to visit.

When Gu Nanyan came to this world, Mrs. Huang just returned to her natal family, and she just came back a few days ago.

Gu Nanyan went out for a walk yesterday, and when she came back, she brought twenty catties of meat.

Mrs. Liu moved a cabbage from the cellar and prepared to make dumplings with cabbage and meat.

Because Gu Nanyan is so edible and the family has a large population, Mrs. Bai and Aunt Cui are learning how to sell it now. The combination of the two of them is not as fast as Mrs. Liu alone.

Mrs. Liu was too busy, so she called Aunt Huang to help.

At this moment, the two of them were rolling out a bag.

Huang decided to give up all topics about Gu Nanyan, and leaned forward mysteriously.

"I heard that your old man sold all the land passed down from his ancestors, saying that he wanted to marry his eldest grandson a wife."

Then he looked outside the one-meter-high courtyard wall, lowered his voice and said:

"Our head of the family has inquired, and the hire money is a full ten taels! The rest of the money needs to build two new houses."

These days, it costs ten taels of silver to marry a daughter-in-law, which is a big mouth for a lion.

I don't know what kind of fairy I want to marry back.

Liu's hand in making dumplings paused, and frowned when she thought of the grandson who was not very close to her.

"I heard brother Guang mention it, saying that she is the daughter of the teacher in his town."

At that time, Brother Shi Guang had just passed the Tongsheng examination, and he said that his husband intended to betroth his daughter to him, but the marriage proposal had to wait until he was selected as a scholar.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huang slapped her hands, and the flour on her hand fell down.

"That's terrible. The girl from a scholar's family is still from the town. Your Brother Guang is really promising."

Unlike the stinky boy in her family, he has no girl he likes so far.

Huang's eyes glanced at Gu Nanyan, seeing that she was holding the steamed bun and biting off half of it in one bite, she quickly stopped thinking.

Not to mention whether her kid is worthy of Nanyatou, her family can't afford to support this kid's appetite.

Although Nan Yatou is capable, she can't enter the door and spend a dowry to support herself.

Anyway, she couldn't do such shameless things as taking out her daughter-in-law's dowry.

Huang sighed in disappointment.

What a good child, it's a pity that her brat is not so lucky.

"Just marry a girl from the town? One still has to live a down-to-earth life."

Generally, a dowry of two taels is already considered, but ten taels of silver to marry a young lady cannot be paid.

"Will you go when you get married?"

Anyway, she is my own grandmother, if she doesn't go to the village, people will gossip.

She knows Mrs. Liu, he is the best person, otherwise the two of them wouldn't be able to get along so well.

It's just that every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and it's not convenient for her to say more about some things.

"Let's talk about it then, please let me go."

If you don't invite me, just be a guest, pack a few taels of silver and leave.

Mrs. Liu said neither salty nor light.

In the afternoon, Gu Laishhou brought his daughter over to check in.

Looking at her sallow, thin granddaughter who seemed to be blown away by the wind, Mrs. Liu felt very distressed.

Back then, she and her daughter had such a hard time, and they didn't starve their children like this.

That old man Gu Mancang doesn't even feed his children enough.

Gu Yueju timidly walked up to Mrs. Liu, looking at her grandmother who loved her the most, her eyes flushed.

In the past three years, there were only a handful of words she had spoken to Grandma.

Although she is not like Gu Yuemei who hides from Grandma, every time she sees her, she only dares to sneak a glance and dare not go forward.

Otherwise, the eldest sister who often brings her by her side will definitely tell the uncle.

At that time, Auntie will be scolded with her.

If she could talk to grandma, she would admit it even if she was scolded, but she didn't want to burden grandma.

"Auntie." Gu Yueju called out weakly.

Tears fell down.

　I am saving the manuscript, and I finally equipped my daughter with a mighty and domineering weapon. You must not have imagined what it is.

　　I'm so excited just thinking about it~
