Chapter 110 Chapter 110: Asking for Money

"I don't think this year will be a good one. Maybe everyone will have to flee!"

Ye Li was startled, "Is it serious enough to flee?"

Seeing Ye Li's surprised face, Gou Wa Niang sighed helplessly, she really came from a wealthy family, but she just doesn't understand the hard work of poor people like them.

"There are already escapees. I don't think it will take long for us to get here."

Ye Li asked suspiciously: "Although the wheat here has been destroyed, can't we plant anything else?"

"Such as corn, sweet potatoes?"

After hearing this, Gouwaniang simply waved her hand, "I can't grow it."

"The wheat is ruined, and there is no money to pay this year's taxes, so where can I get the money to buy seedlings?"

"Besides, food is expensive at this time, even if you have money, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy much."

Ye Li was immediately discouraged when he heard that, "Then there is no other way?"

Gou Wa Niang's face darkened, and she said coldly: "Yes, sell the land, sell the land at home to the rich, let's talk about it after winter."

Ye Li: "Sell the land? That's not okay, you bought the land, what will you eat in the future?"

Gouwaniang smiled miserably, "Not being able to eat in the future is a matter of the future, it's better than starving to death now."

"Okay, why am I telling you these things, your brother Lin is capable, and he shouldn't be able to starve you."

Ye Li smiled miserably, "Sister-in-law, don't talk about this, everyone is not the same now."

The two of them had already reached the mountain while they were talking, and Ye Li smiled wryly as he looked at the empty mountains around him, "It seems we have to go further."

If Gouwaniang must have been afraid before, but now that people can't eat, then she can still have so many scruples, and said loudly: "Let's go! Whatever you can find is nothing!"

The two of them walked into the mountains together. They met many people along the way. They had no choice but to copy some trails. Fortunately, there were still many things on the trails that had not been dug up.

Just as the two of them were digging wild vegetables in silence, they heard a burst of eagle calls from the sky.

Ye Li looked up and saw the black eagle hovering above their heads, and disappeared after a while.

Ye Li raised his head and looked at it with a smile for a while, then started digging wild vegetables again.

Gouwaniang also saw the black eagle, and seeing Ye Li like this, she said enviously: "You are really blessed, you are so spiritual when you pick up anything."

"Look at this, Black Hawk is going to your house to deliver something to you again!"

Ever since the black eagle could fly, he wandered around the mountains every day, and sometimes he caught a lot of things, and would send them a copy.

Once, he gave Ye Li a big mouse and almost scared Ye Li to death. After being educated, Hei Ying already knew how to pick things up for her.

This matter was not a secret in the village, and Ye Li didn't intend to keep it a secret, so he replied with a smile: "It seems to be."

"Why are you envious, let your elder brother go to the mountains to pick one up for you that day."

Upon hearing this, Gouwaniang immediately said: "Forget it! It's not enough to torment."

She took all the money they had to spend on Hei Ying's recovery back then, and she didn't have any spare money to waste.

An hour later, both of their back baskets were full, and they wanted to go down the mountain.

On the way back, Gouwaniang suddenly thought of something, pulled Ye Li and asked, "Did Brother Lin build a house for Erya's family not long ago?"

Ye Li nodded, "Yes!"

"Isn't your eldest brother here?"

Gouwaniang: "Yes."

"I heard that there is money to build a house for Erya's family, do you know?"

Ye Li nodded: "I know!"

"At the beginning, we all did our best, so we didn't need to give money. Those who don't work like them will get money. Brother Li made an agreement before building the house."

Upon hearing this, Gou Wa Niang asked, "Did you give me the money?"

Ye Li shook his head, "It doesn't seem to be given."

Recently, she is in charge of their family's money, and Lin Xiao will definitely give her the wages if they are paid.

"Sister-in-law, did your family give it?" Ye Li asked back.

Gouwaniang's face darkened, "My family didn't give it either."

As he said that, he said "bah" again, "I see this money! If it is not guaranteed, it will not be paid out."

Ye Li didn't care much about the money, but felt a little alienated.

"Forget it, it won't solve any problems whether the money is paid or not." Ye Li replied helplessly.

Gouwaniang: "Then you are not in charge of the family and don't know how expensive Chai Mi is, just watch it! This matter is troublesome!"

At first Ye Li thought that Gouwaniang was talking casually, but he never expected to hear someone arguing as soon as he arrived in the village, but he couldn't make out what was being said.

Ye Li didn't want to go to see it, but Gouwaniang was curious.

Hearing the voice, his ears immediately perked up, "Go! Go! Mrs. Lin, I will take you to see a good show." Gouwaniang said excitedly.

Ye Li was a little staggered by her pull, and asked helplessly: "Sister-in-law, what a show!"

Gouwaniang: "You will know when you arrive."

Ye Li had no choice but to follow Gouwaniang forward.

Who would have imagined that Gouwaniang would drag her to Li Lei's house, and her door was crowded with people, so she heard Li Lei's wife and a woman arguing loudly.

Gouwaniang excitedly tugged at a woman standing beside her, "Sister-in-law, what are you arguing about?"

The woman glanced at Gouwaniang, and immediately replied, "I need wages!"

Gouwaniang immediately became interested when she heard it, "Did you say when it will be given?"

"No, if you tell me, we're still making trouble here!"

At this moment, the woman on the facade asked loudly, "When will you give the Erya family the money to build the house?"

Li Lei's daughter-in-law is not easy to mess with either, she replied decisively with her sleeves rolled up: "What money? No."

The woman was also not polite, "Erya's house didn't work hard, didn't I give you money?"

"Your man said the money will be paid to us as wages."

Li Lei's daughter-in-law became anxious when she heard this, "Where did you get the money, you are crazy poor! I also miss this little money."

The woman was not to be outdone when she heard it, "Damn! You think we are all as rich and powerful as your family."

"We are poor, and we rely on this little money to make money. Will you give it to us?"

As soon as the woman finished talking about Li Lei's daughter-in-law, her face darkened. How could she have money for them!At the beginning, I lied to Li Lei that Erya's family gave money, just to let them build the house first.

What she was thinking at the time was that they burned the bricks by themselves, the labor was all their own, and they didn't spend a penny. Who would ask her for the money, and she never thought that someone would really ask for it.

Just as Li Lei's wife was about to say no, she saw Li Lei walking angrily from a distance with a dark face.

Passing through the crowd, he said to his wife: "What kind of joke are you making here? Hurry up and get the money."

He hadn't asked Er Ya Niang for giving his wife the money, how could he have imagined that someone came to ask for money today, and her daughter-in-law would have such an attitude.

Li Lei's daughter-in-law pretended to be stupid and said in a daze, "Money? What money?"
