Chapter 100

The family bought two or three bolts of bright cloth, a few grass carp, and two catties of pork.

The shopping was almost done, and finally the group was divided into two groups. The three sisters Li Yayue took their things and went home in a bullock cart, while Li Shu and Yu Shi had to go to the fisherman's house by the river to buy fish. In fact, the main purpose was to Go and buy red pliers separately.

After the three sisters arrived home, they did not go to the Li family's old house, but went directly to the second room's current temporary residence, the house next to the woodland.

Li Yayue kept the fish in the tank, and then went to pick up some twigs for firewood near the house.

By lunch time, Li Shu and his wife hadn't come back yet. Li Yayue guessed that they were going to have dinner in the town, so the three sisters fried garlic crayfish and cooked a half pot of noodles, talking about the morning meal. It is also a pleasure to eat while selling pancakes.

After Li Fuyue woke up in the afternoon, Li Shu and his wife finally came back. She first heard the sound of "humming", and when she got up to look, Li Shu and Yu Shi were carrying a big bamboo basket, which should be full of crayfish. But what the sisters of the Li family didn't expect was that Mrs. Yu was still holding a bamboo stick in his hand, and two little piglets were walking in front of him. By himself, he let go of his trotters and ran around the yard.

"Ya Ya, Miao Ya, quickly close the doors of the room." Seeing this, Yu Shi hurriedly said, if the piglet ran into the house and jumped on the bed, Yu Shi felt that he would not dare to think about it.

Li Yayue and Li Miaoyue were also vigilant, and upon seeing this, they quickly closed the door firmly: "Father, why are you buying piglets?"

Mrs. Yu laughed: "It's because I thought there were many empty firewood houses at home, so I tidied up one of them so that I could raise pigs and open a vegetable garden in the back."

The vegetable garden used by the Li family’s old house is shared by the whole family, and this time the family has been separated. Although the old man Li said that he could go back to pick it if he ran out of vegetables, but when he said this, Zheng’s eyes were like It was as if someone was going to be tortured. In fact, Li Shu didn't want to go back to the old house to pick vegetables. He was short of manpower, and he was not short of the money for the vegetables.

Li Yayue nodded, indicating that she understood.

Li Shu and his wife had already eaten in the town. After the family cleaned up the firewood house, they locked the little piglet in, scooped the leftovers from the previous swill in the sink, and finished cooking. After all this, he devoted himself to the great business of peeling crayfish non-stop. The income of two or two dollars a day made the family feel like they had been pumped with chicken blood, and they were full of endless energy.

Of course, Li Yayue also took the time to heat up the bath water for Li Fuyue. After such a busy day, and it was such a hot month, the whole family planned to take a bath, and the others had to do a long time of work with quick hands and feet, so let's let Li Fuyue, who had slow hands and feet, took the bath first.

Li Fuyue took a bath comfortably. Even if a peasant family like the Li family takes a bath, they just wipe their whole body with a wet handkerchief. This is to save firewood. When the Li family comes to the woodland, the most important thing they need is firewood. , so the Li family can enjoy a bucket of hot water these days.

What makes Li Fuyue more comfortable is that she is thin and small. Li Shu made several new buckets two days ago, and they were all very big. Take it off, get a [-]% full of warm water, and the whole person can shrink in directly. Although it is a little hot in summer, but there is a lot of wind in the woodland, the temperature is just right, and Li Fuyue is quite comfortable.

When she got dressed and came out, the whole family was sitting at the door of the main room peeling crayfish and talking about it in full swing.

Li Fuyue went over with a small bench. Although her hands and feet were a little slow, she was careful and stripped cleanly, which was considered a help.

"Speaking of which, I ran into Mrs. Lotus in the village yesterday, and we chatted a little bit, saying that the siblings had a big belly, and they were arguing about what to eat every day to nourish their bodies, and the third brother was also spoiled by her, which made my mother very unhappy. "When Yu Shi said this, there was inevitably a little schadenfreude on his face.

Although several people knew it shouldn't be, but in fact they heard Zheng's unlucky, no one felt sympathetic, after all, they were the ones who were rounded by the grind before, and now they turned over with great difficulty, there is no reason to turn back.

Li Shu peeled the crayfish in his hand: "In the past few days, no one has come from the old house, so we can hide the matter of the red pliers, but sooner or later, the people in the village will know about the money we make in the town. , the old house will also know."

As he spoke, Li Shu frowned. Even if the income in two or two days is not as good as today, it is still a large amount of income. It is impossible for him to give it away willingly.

Li Miaoyue has also been trained these days, and Yi Ran has become the most intelligent person on the surface. Hearing this, he said: "The red pliers bring great benefits, but there is no guarantee that no one will know what the raw materials are. We just It can be kept secret, but it can’t be said that it must be strictly guarded against acceptance. We can earn as many days as we can, anyway, we didn’t just push carts at the beginning, we opened restaurants.”

The use of a cart is only because it is not enough to buy land in the town. When I earn enough money to open a decent restaurant, that is the long-term benefit.

Li Yayue also nodded in agreement, and said, "Just wanting to open a shop in the town still requires a lot of money. We used to be short-sighted, thinking that a few taels of silver was enough money, but now It seems that it is still not enough. I heard that a moderately sized shop in a relatively prosperous street in the town costs 30 taels of silver. We went to the gold and silver street this morning, and the shop is even more expensive. The shop costs five or sixty taels of silver."

Five or sixty taels of silver, for this group of country people, it is really like a mountain on top of their heads. They are trying to find something new today, so they can sell two taels of silver, but no one lives on pancakes. To sell it, it is not bad to have a few hundred Wen.

There was envy on everyone's face. They were envious of the merchants on the Gold and Silver Street. No wonder they were able to buy such expensive pancakes in one go, because it was nothing to them.

When the whole family was envious of the rich families in the town, Li Fuyue, who had been obediently peeling crayfish, tilted her head: "Do my parents and sisters want that kind of shining stone? Fubao gives it to you!"

After saying that, Li Fuyue ran towards her room.

They only thought that she was going to share the beautiful stones they collected, so they just shook their heads and smiled, and then chatted in a few words.

Then Li Fuyue ran out of the room again, dumped the beautiful pockets in her hand on the ground, and rolled out dozens of bright silver "little stones".

"Boom—" This was the sound of thunder rolling over the heads of the members of the Li family.

What kind of beautiful little stone is this? This is a cute and shiny silver dumpling!
