Chapter 348

Thinking that she could earn three yuan tomorrow, Shu Ying felt happy for a while.

Farmers usually marry more children before the new year, but there are fewer after the new year. No, from the new year to now, counting the next banquet, Shu Ying has only taken jobs from three families.

Two of them are for marriage, and one is for the old man's birthday.

Sitting down at the table of the three families, you can earn 15 yuan if you play a full game.

Among them, ten yuan was given to the old man in the family for his birthday. It is said that two of the sons of this family are very promising, one works in the city,

One worked in the county, so when thanking her, he gave her five yuan in red envelopes in addition to the five yuan agreed in advance to make noodles.

Although 15 yuan is equivalent to the monthly salary of a temporary worker in the current year and has considerable purchasing power, Shu Ying feels that it is impossible to continue like this. After all, from the end of the new year to the present,
There were almost two months in between. In this way, the 15 yuan she earned was only [-] yuan a month on average, not to mention the next few months, to be more precise.

Before Maodong, there will be fewer peasants holding weddings for their children, and it is doomed that the work of making banquets will be even less than it is at the present stage.
As for celebrating the old man's birthday, asking her to go to a banquet, it should not be said, in the farmhouse, in the current situation, people can't even fill their stomachs, and how many people can have enough money and enough food, Helping the elderly in the family celebrate their birthday?

Thinking like this, Shu Ying's clear and quiet almond eyes searched for herbs around her, thinking about how to effectively increase the family's financial income.

Even if one person in the family receives a fixed salary every month, the four of them only rely on this salary and food stamps. It is difficult for Shu Ying to live a more relaxed life.

What's more, Shu Ying has never been a free eater. She is grateful for being taken in by the Meng family. Under such circumstances, how can she be a rice bug with peace of mind?

Therefore, Shu Ying quietly thought about ways to increase the family's financial income, and secretly told herself that she must think of it.

Perhaps someone, knowing what Shu Ying was thinking, would suggest going to the ground to earn work points, but for Yu Shuying, this method is not very good.

It's not that Shu Ying can't bear the hardships, nor is it that she's afraid of being tired or lacking strength, but in Shu Ying's view, earning work points with brute force will not earn much money throughout the year except for some food.

Besides, even if Shu Ying wanted to earn work points, Meng Sankui and his wife would definitely not agree.

The good-looking brows were slightly frowned, and Shu Ying finally thought of a way to work and find a formal job, so that she would not only get a salary every month, but also receive public food every month.

However, the current jobs are full of carrots and pits, not to mention becoming a regular worker, even a temporary worker is extremely difficult.

In addition, even if the factories in the city are recruiting workers, the first thing they consider is young people with urban household registration. She, a farm girl, can only stand aside.

Meng Sankui regards Shu Ying as the daughter of his sworn brother, as his goddaughter who was lost when he was young. The household registration was finally placed under the name of his wife Xiuyu.

That's right, it was listed under Xiuyu's name, together with Meng Qiao's name, but the reason why it wasn't listed under Meng Sankui's name was because Meng Sankui ate commercial grain and his household registration was not in Mengjiatun.

As time passed, Shu Ying sighed secretly, that's all, let's take it one step at a time, as long as she encounters a suitable opportunity, an opportunity that can improve the living conditions of her family, she will definitely seize it.

Just as she was making a decision, Shu Ying was stunned for a moment, and then her almond eyes were as bright as if they were covered with dazzling rhinestones. She was full of excitement, and tried to calm down for a while, calling Meng Qiao: "Qiao Qiao! Qiao Qiao, you Come quickly and see what big treasure my sister found!"

Wild ginseng!
A wild ginseng that has been at least a hundred years old!

A smile bloomed on Shu Ying's beautiful face. This smile was as eye-catching as a spring flower, and as warm as the winter sun. Seeing Meng Qiao approaching, she pointed to the wild ginseng growing near an ancient tree three steps away from her eyes and said:

"See, it's wild ginseng, at least a hundred years old..."

Suddenly, Shu Ying found that there seemed to be another wild ginseng two feet away from the wild ginseng she was pointing at.

Holding back her excitement, she stepped forward to check it lightly, and soon laughed out loud: "Qiao Qiao, there is another one here, but it should be younger."

Staring intently at the red flowers blooming on the wild ginseng, Shu Ying seemed to be looking at rare treasures, her eyebrows and eyes curved like crescent moons, the corners of her lips curled up into a beautiful arc, and said:

"Let's sell one of these two plants of wild ginseng and keep the other, and use the money to live on, and keep this one for emergencies."

Meng Qiao squatted next to the first wild ginseng plant that Shu Ying found, her mouth was wide open, her eyes were fixed on the big baby Shu Ying was talking about, and she didn't recover for a long time.

"Jojo?"

After not hearing Meng Qiao's response for a while, Shu Ying couldn't help but look at him.

"sister……"

After regaining consciousness, Meng Qiao met Shu Ying's gaze: "Sister, what did you say to me?" His eyes were full of apology: "I was distracted just now."

"Shocked."

Shu Ying used declarative sentences, and then said: "I just mentioned to you, these two plants of wild ginseng, let's sell one to live on, and keep the other for emergencies."

"Sister, if you find something, it's yours. You can do whatever you want, but it's not right to sell a plant for our family to live on, and I don't think my parents will agree."

"What's wrong?"

Shu Ying raised her eyebrows, and then carefully dug out the younger wild ginseng.

"This baby was discovered by my sister. It belongs to my sister alone. The family can't take advantage of it."

Meng Qiao responded seriously.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Shu Ying didn't go to see the boy, she said in a relaxed tone, "Aren't I part of the family?"

Hearing this, Meng Qiao said without hesitation, "Sister is."

"Then what else is there to say? I am the daughter of my parents, and I am your sister. We are a family. What is yours and mine? Now listen to me, and I will talk to my parents about what I just mentioned Things, you have to help me, you can't let my father and mother have a relationship with me."

"Is this really the case?"

Meng Qiao didn't want to agree, he still felt that the wild ginseng should belong to his sister alone, and the family couldn't take advantage of it.

"What do you say?"

Turning her head, Shu Ying half-closed her almond eyes, revealing a dangerous light.

Under the desire to survive, Meng Qiao finally had no choice but to nod: "Okay."

The wild ginseng that my sister discovered by herself, but she wants to sell a plant to subsidize the family, and keep another plant for emergency needs. To put it bluntly, it is also reserved for family members when they need it.
To be honest, Meng Qiao was very moved and couldn't help but think that he was in good health now, so it shouldn't be a problem to go to the fields to earn work points.

It was decided that he would earn work points, and then use the centimeters to exchange food for the family, so that he could also contribute to the family's life,
It's impossible for a girl to think about how to live a good life for the whole family, but he is a man, but he is the son of the old society and waits to eat.

"What are you thinking about?"

When Shu Ying carefully dug out the younger wild ginseng, she saw that the young man was lost in his own thoughts, and he didn't even notice when she came to him, so she couldn't help asking.

"what?"

Hearing Shu Ying's voice, Meng Qiao suddenly came back to her senses, and apologized again: "Sister, I lost my mind again, I'm sorry."

"I asked what you were thinking?"

Shu Ying dug up the wild ginseng plant that was at least a hundred years old, and casually threw out the previous question.

"...I didn't think about anything."

It's better not to tell the truth, lest my sister worry about his body.

"A child, don't always think about what you have and what you don't have." Shu Ying didn't believe or disbelieve what the young man said, and she said solemnly: "Your task now is to take good care of your body and do a good job in your studies at the same time." .”

"Ok, I know."

Meng Qiao responded.

"Don't look down on it now, but I believe it's only temporary. Therefore, we have to learn, and we can't throw away the books. Once there is good news, we will undoubtedly be able to deal with it easily."

Well, if there is no accident, ten years later, this place can reopen the university gate to many students as she knows.

Meng Qiao said "oh" obediently.

……

Two wild ginseng plants were dug out intact, and Shu Ying placed them in the middle of the bamboo basket, covered with a thick layer of hogweed. When they were about to descend the mountain, the siblings cooperated and caught a pheasant that was laying eggs.

But they couldn't be happier.

The pheasants were placed in the bamboo basket on Meng Qiao's back, covered with a layer of hogweed.

"Sister, how do we eat pheasant?"

"Of course it's stewed, so you can eat meat and drink soup, which is good for you and your mother."

"It's a pity that our father doesn't have this to take orally."

"Do you think Dad will be short of a piece of chicken, a bite of chicken soup?"

Meng Sankui works as a chef in the state-owned restaurant in the town, and he can only rest one day a week, which means he can only go home one day a week. He picked up Shu Ying at the foot of the hill before,

Considering that his wife and children were weak, and the family needed someone to run errands to ask for a doctor, Meng Sankui had to ask for leave and stayed at home for a few more days until Shu Ying woke up, and the doctor at the township hospital diagnosed her health as normal, so she returned to normal the next day. Work.

"Father is not missing."

Meng Qiao scratched his head and smiled.

"It's good to know. However, it's a pity that Dad can't enjoy the fat pheasant with us."

Shu Ying said with a smile.

"Yes, my father is so sorry!"

Meng Qiao sighed as if playing tricks.

……

When the siblings walked into the village, they happened to be working in the field. For a moment, the eyes of the young men carrying farm tools were all staring at Shu Ying.

"Sister, let's hurry up, they are so annoying, they stare at you as soon as they see you, if possible, I want to goug out their eyes, to see how they stick their eyeballs to you."

Meng Qiao frowned, walked beside Shu Ying, and said in a low voice.

"Why do you have such an idea?"

With a smile on the corner of Shu Ying's mouth, she said in a soft voice: "Being looked at twice won't lose a piece of meat. Besides, your sister and I are not afraid of being looked at." Before coming to this world,

She knew that her appearance was really attractive, no matter how low-key her dress was, she would always be followed by amazing eyes wherever she went.

Coming to this world inexplicably, and inexplicably having the same appearance as the original world, it is not surprising that people look at it twice.

"But I don't want them to look at my sister like that."

Meng Qiao puffed up her cheeks.

Shu Ying smiled lightly: "I didn't expect our Qiao Qiao to be jealous."

"I'm not jealous, I just don't like them wanting to stick their eyes on my sister."

Don't think that he can't see the eyes of those people, they all want to be his brother-in-law, and don't look at their crooked looks, can they match his sister?
"Okay, as long as I don't care about your sister, others can do whatever they want."

She didn't want to solve her life's major affairs casually.

"Sister, don't you find them annoying? Since my sister appeared in the village, those who haven't married a wife always stare at her when she sees her.
They also often create chance encounters. What's more, they are all thick-skinned. Whenever they have time, they will stay not far from the gate of our house, just waiting for my sister to go out. "

Speaking of this, Meng Qiao snorted coldly, and said, "Actually, I look down on them quite a bit. They all want to talk to sister, but they are cowards who dare not speak in front of sister.
They look so useless, and they look shabby, my sister must despise them, right? "

"I got it right, your sister, I don't like cowards."

Shu Ying agreed with the boy's thoughts.

"You don't like it even if it looks chilly?"

"Ah."

"What kind of brother-in-law will my sister find for me in the future?"

Shu Ying almost blurted out: "Good-looking, [-]-plus tall, good-natured, your sister told me to go east, he would never go west, your sister told me to catch chickens, he would never chase dogs... The most important point It’s to be kind to your sister and me.”

The gentle and pleasant voice overflowed her lips and teeth, but Shu Ying didn't know that what she said casually almost pulled Captain Gu out and described it completely.

Of course, Shu Ying doesn't have that part of memory now, so she doesn't know that the other half of her exit is the man she likes and has a marriage contract with.

"Is there really such a person?"

It's so perfect, is his sister sure she can find him such a brother-in-law?
Meng Qiao was a little unsure.

"Yes, absolutely. Believe in your sister and me, I will definitely find such a brother-in-law for you."

As Shu Ying said, the corners of her lips could not help but curl up: "Maybe that person is waiting to meet your sister and me by chance!"

……

"You don't also like the third uncle's daughter, do you?"

"What? Just allow you to fancy it, and don't allow me to think about it?"

"That's the reason. No one has a family. What does that mean? It means that we are all qualified to marry the third uncle's family."

"I have the qualifications, but don't you think we are worthy?"

"What's worthy or not? We are all in the same village. If we really see each other right, once we get married, we will become a family."

"She looks like a fairy girl, can she take a fancy to us?"

"If you ask me, in our village, only that kid Chunsheng can match third uncle's daughter."

Chunsheng, full name Meng Chunsheng, is the only high school student in Mengjiatun, fair and handsome, about [-] in height, is Mengjiatun,
Even the husband candidate that many unmarried girls in the nearby village want to marry is the young man whom "Black Peony" Meng Lihua admires.

"I didn't go to high school, and now I'm not working at home like us."

"Chunsheng works at home, but he is a scorekeeper. He can easily get ten centimeters a day. Can you?"
