Disastrous year!Before the whole family is wiped out, a little blessing falls from the sky!

Chapter 178 A real “stinky” boy!
Chunhong was made to cry and laugh at the same time by her sister. She raised her hand and divided her dumplings between two, and said, "Keep your voice down. We should laugh on such a good day. If outsiders heard this, they would think that we are uncles." It’s not good for us! Eat quickly and work when you’re full!”

Erya nodded vigorously and ate the dumplings carefully. The slight fear in her heart due to her sudden departure from home was completely forgotten as her belly became full.

After the Tai family had eaten and drank enough, the dishes on the table were all clean.

Chunhong and Erya quickly picked up the table and took it to the kitchen to wash it.

Liu Dongniang wanted to follow her to do some work, but Yang Lihua pulled her back and said with a smile, "Now that Erya is here to help, you don't have to worry about such a small job."

Liu Dongniang smiled honestly, took off her apron and rolled it in her hand, and replied, "I'm used to it, I always feel uneasy."

"Then we will slowly change it from now on," Yang Lihua pulled her to sit down, "I think Erya is very talented in cooking, you can teach her more. With her taking over, you don't have to be tied to the kitchen all the time. Go out for a walk in your free time.”

Mr. Tai agreed with the eldest daughter-in-law's words, "Yes, there are people in the family to share the work, so the second daughter-in-law will go out with the eldest daughter-in-law to see the world. Who knows if the family's workshop will grow in the future and there will be more industries, you will need to take care of them. Woolen cloth."

Liu Dongniang blushed, feeling a little nervous and frightened.

Yang Lihua quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, take your time, don't be in a hurry."

The old man banged the pipe pot twice and reported to his daughter-in-law how much money he had sold for the three ginseng trees and how much money he had spent.

Yang Lihua quickly took out the account book and wrote it down, and asked casually, "They are all the same things, why are they sold at two prices?"

Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue were so full that they were leaning on their chairs to reminisce. After hearing this, they immediately got up and stood in the corner of the room.

Yang Lihua is so smart. She immediately knew that these two boys had made a mistake again.

Mr. Tai gave a brief explanation. Seeing that his grandson's head was buried in his chest, he waved his hand to signal his eldest daughter-in-law not to say any more.

Tai Yongning was worried that his sister would not be able to digest it, so he was helping her rub her round belly. At this moment, he glanced at his brothers helplessly and did not help to plead for mercy.

As for Tai Jizu and Liu Dongniang...

They seldom open their mouths when it comes to educating their children. They have a wise father above and a strict sister-in-law below. The couple has always been the hands-off shopkeeper!
Tai Jizu wanted to tell the boys a favor, but unfortunately before he could open his mouth, his wife glared and scratched the back of his head...

Mr. Tai clicked his pipe and pot and said, "My family has saved a lot of money, and I'm afraid the cashmere workshop won't be able to use it all. Let's discuss whether we should buy something?"

Everyone had mixed feelings after hearing this, as if four months ago, the family was worried about food.

In the blink of an eye, life has been turned upside down, and there is no money left to spend...

"Dad, let's buy land! As long as we have land, there will be output and there will be endless food!" Tai Jizu's love for land will never weaken.

Buying land will always be his first choice.

Tai Jizong thought for a while and nodded, "Yes, dad, the shop is too expensive. Shops in similar locations cost several hundred taels. Our family doesn't have enough money. And the third child is not at home, and no one knows how to run it!"

"The second brother is right. Dad, let's buy a few acres of land first and leave some money to wait for the third brother to come back before making a decision." Yang Lihua also agreed and persuaded, "Actually, you don't have to buy a shop. If you need it for the workshop, you can rent one temporarily. That’s it. It costs a few hundred taels to buy a shop, but it only costs a dozen taels to rent it for a year.”

The old man thought it made sense, so he said, "Well, if you have nothing to do, boss, ask who sells the land. At this time of year, you can replant corn or millet. At most, you can even plant cabbage and radish, and you can put it in the cellar for the whole winter." "I know, Dad!" Tai Jizu agreed happily, already thinking about which village he would go to tomorrow to ask questions.

The old man wanted to speak, but his granddaughter held him in his lap.

"Grandpa, can you stop making my brothers stand? They are so pitiful! The dumplings we just ate are no longer tasty!"

Zhuzhu struggled to climb onto her grandfather's knees and kissed him. She blinked her big eyes and narrowed her mouth, trying to explain what it was like to be pitiful.

"Grandpa, from now on Zhuzhu will go up the mountain to find Duoduo ginseng babies and let my brother sell them!"

"Ouch, dear baby, you can't say that!" The old man quickly stopped the fat granddaughter from talking, "No matter how much ginseng there is on the mountain, our family can't dig any more! They are all natural and earthly treasures, you can find them Too much, what if God blames me! Also, our family has enough money to spend, so we can’t be too greedy, you know?”

Zhuzhu didn't understand the deep meaning of her grandfather's words, so she just pointed at her brother who was standing there, "What about the brothers?"

"Ignore them, they will be punished if they make mistakes." The old man sent his granddaughter to Yongning and coaxed her, "Your second brother's legs have been healing a little slowly recently. Please stay with your second brother more and try to walk earlier. Go to school so that you don’t delay taking the top exam!"

Exam champion?
That is a literary star in the world!
Zhuzhu realized that she had taken on a big job, and immediately became excited. She forgot about the two naughty brothers who needed to be rescued, and tried her best to blow air on her second brother's injured leg, hoping that the second brother would no longer feel pain and quickly get down to the ground to walk.

Tai Yongning smiled and led his sister back to the east room, pretending not to see the "desperate" looks in his brothers' eyes!
The rest of the people chatted and did some small jobs until late at night before washing and resting.

Tai Yonglu and Tai Yongyue's legs were already sore from standing. They were finally pushed to sleep. They were so tired that they didn't even bother to wash their feet.

Sesame Ball rarely slept in the house, so he rolled his eyes at the smelly feet of the two boys, and quickly ran out again to find the big black horse as a companion.

The big black horse has a bad temper, but his feet are not!
The night is quiet, the moon in the sky is shining lightly on everything in the world, the moonlight is as gentle as water, and countless children are having sweet dreams.

The Tai family's precious fat girl is sleeping in her mother's arms. She licks her lips from time to time, savoring the sweetness of the dumplings...

In the distant Shunde Mansion, the Zheng family's Sanjin courtyard was also quiet everywhere, both the master and the slaves were asleep.

There was only a faint light in the kitchen in the backyard, where two women were secretly drinking and eating food around a small table.

Xu was half drunk, so the two of them had no scruples in talking.

"Old sister, you said that the one in the woodshed next door is really the child of my distant relative?" A fat woman in brown smiled treacherously and asked in a low voice while pouring wine for her companion.

The companion was wearing a navy blue dress and had a silver hairpin in her hair. It was obvious that she was somewhat dignified in front of her master.

She still remembered taking a look outside the door, and then sneered and said, "Humph, you are so clear-eyed in your mind, why are you still asking me? For a man with such a good face like me, if he is a child of his relatives, I am afraid I have to keep him by my side and care for him every day. , so that others can know how kind-hearted he is.

"It's a pity that this child has become a thorn in Madam's side as soon as he enters the door. Master also wants to pretend not to see him every time they meet. Think about it, can this child's identity be simple?

"I'm afraid, this kid is from over there!"
