Mozun boss is working as an aunt in farming

Chapter 531 Buy cloth to make clothes
When the villagers heard that the money would be distributed soon, they were all full of energy. When they gathered at the Si family, their eyes were filled with unstoppable excitement.

After Si Jinsong settled the accounts, it was almost Haishi, Si Qing yawned several times, waved his hands and said to Si Jinsong, "You and Mrs. Wu go to share the money, I'll go to bed first."

"Hey, grandma, you can just sleep and leave the rest to me and Si Jinsong." Mrs. Wu also felt sorry for Si Qing's staying up late and hurting her body, so she hurriedly agreed.

So under Li Daya's care, Si Qing washed up and went to bed.

Si Jinsong took the calculated account book, and Wu took the silver and came to the front yard.

First, I reported to everyone the amount of silver sold today, which was a full 270 taels. My aunt took 82% and got [-] taels of silver.

In front of everyone, Wu counted out 82 taels of silver, put them in a wooden box, and put them aside.

Then began to distribute money to the villagers.

"Si Zhengping, three to five silver."

"Liu Dali, three taels of silver."

"Si Shanhe, three or two taels of silver."

"Chen Shitou, twenty-nine coins."

……

This time everyone got a lot of money, the lowest was two taels of silver, and the highest was Chen Laoshi's family, who got a full share of three taels or nine taels of silver, almost four taels of silver.

Of course, this is mainly because Chen Laoshi's daughter-in-law also went in when he entered the mountain for the second time. His family has an extra labor force, and the care is more meticulous. The vegetables grown are juicier and heavier.

The people in the village saw it and thought silently, next time they should go to more talents so that they can grow more vegetables.

But everyone is very satisfied with the money that was distributed this time.

Two or three taels of silver, on weekdays, save half a year and may not be able to save half of the taels of silver.

Everyone took the silver they got and went home happily.

Because they had extra money on hand, the next day, a group of older girls and daughters-in-law from the village got up early and went to the county town to buy cloth.

It’s hard to celebrate the New Year. In previous years, it’s fine if you don’t have money. If you have money this year, of course you have to buy a few feet of cloth and new cotton, and make some clothes for your family.

Therefore, almost all the women in the village went, and even many women rarely went to the county town together.

They went to the county town on foot and did not take an ox cart. First, they were thirty today and the men were busy killing chickens. Second, not everyone could take an ox cart every time they entered the city like Si Qing.

Most people still have to rely on their legs to enter the city.

It takes about five hours to go back and forth.

In addition to buying cloth and picking and choosing, it was already dark when we returned to the village.

Mrs. Wu didn't go, she was afraid that if she left, Si Qing would go hungry if he couldn't eat something that suits his appetite.

She only asked Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Li to go to the county town to buy a few feet of good cloth and two catties of new cotton for her to make new clothes for Si Shanhe and her two children.

At night, Mrs. Wu cleaned up the dishes, boiled a large pot of hot water, and took a bath with Li Daya, who took care of Si Qing and Meimei, before leaving.

After returning home, Mrs. Zhao sent the newly bought cloth and cotton.

Wu hurriedly asked them how much they spent in total.

Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "It's not much. We bought a lot of people this time. We negotiated the price with the shopkeeper. You only spent three hundred cash for a few feet of cloth and cotton."

"The price is really not expensive. I remember that last year cotton cost fifty Wen a catty." Wu said with a smile, counting out three hundred copper coins and handing them to Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao took the copper coins and said, "That's not true, but cotton is not expensive this year, forty cents a catty. According to the shopkeeper, it seems that there is no snow in the north this winter, so the price of cotton has dropped."
