Make a lot of money!I got rich in the year of famine

Chapter 6

Although he said this, he was thinking in his heart that if this thing was not valuable, he would have to hide it from Shen Qing. At worst, he would subsidize it a few dollars to save the little girl from disappointment and sadness.

After another busy day, after the Cao family father and son left, the sisters really had a nest.

And with the food sent by Uncle Hard Work, it can last for a while.

Shen Qing ran up the mountain with Huo Lin all day long, sometimes going early in the morning and returning in the evening.

Shen Hui washed up at home, tidying up the front and back of the house.

When Huo Lin was away, she often went to the next door to take care of Uncle Huo, and even cooked meals together, taking him to eat together.

Probably with the excitement and good food, old man Huo miraculously recovered.

Hearing that Shen Qing wanted to catch fish, the old man asked Huo Lin to chop some bamboo, and when the sun was good, he would sit in the courtyard and weave fish reels.

After Shen Qing got the fish basket, he couldn't wait to lead Huo Lin to build a dam in the upper shallow water area and enclose a place along the shore.

Huo Lin was confused. "Is this also called catching fish? Why don't we just go into the water and plunge the harpoon like this...isn't that enough?"

Shen Qing squatted by the water and looked at the small fish swimming in the water, "You know what a ghost, you won't be able to wear a few fish until dark. This is called chasing fish. Later, you can take the branch and from there, Slap the water as you walk to drive the fish this way, and wait for them to get in before they can get out."

"Okay, let's ask Sister Hui to cook fish soup tonight. My grandpa likes fish soup."

"It would be best if I could buy a piece of tofu and cook the tofu in fish soup!"

Huo Lin became more and more greedy as he listened, "There is a village to the north. There are people in their village who make tofu, but it's a pity that I have no money."

Shen Qing: "Don't worry, when my cousin sells the dendrobium, we will have money. Xiao Linzi, don't worry, I will have something to eat from now on, so you and Uncle Huo won't be hungry."

Huo Lin was only moved for a moment, and then immediately became frustrated, "It's been several days, and your cousin has no letter at all. It seems that the dendrobium is not valuable."

In fact, Shen Qing had no idea. If the dendrobium could not be exchanged for money, she would have to find other ways to get money.

She always has to take out the first pot of gold, and she doesn't have the ability to do it with nothing.

"Xiao Linzi, the fish are about to run away, hurry up, over there!"

"Don't yell, the fish will run faster when you yell."

The two walked back on the setting sun, Huo Lin was carrying the fish basket, which contained half a basket of small fish, including small white stripes and small crucian carp.

"Small white strips are salted and dried, steamed to make small salted fish, and small crucian carp stew soup, but after being salted and smoked and then steamed in a pot, it is also very fragrant, why not half and half!" Shen Qing thought while walking, almost home Suddenly, she stopped, and then started to run.

"Hey! What's the matter?" Huo Lin was listening intently. Seeing her run away, he also followed closely. As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, he saw a middle-aged man standing in the courtyard of the Shen family sisters.

On the opposite side, Shen Qing held her sister's arm, her delicate face was so cold that ice could drip down.

"Second Uncle, don't worry, as soon as we go back tomorrow, isn't it just a divorce? It's no big deal."

"Girl Qing, you two should pack up your things and go back with me. The Yang family's marriage will be dismissed immediately. I will ask your second aunt to help you find a better family." Shen Changfu searched all the way. He couldn't bear to see this dilapidated courtyard.

"Second uncle, I appreciate your kindness. Now that you are out, don't go back. Besides, my mother is buried here, and we have to guard her."

Uncle Shen sighed, "You're such a stubborn girl. If you don't go against your father, what good will it do to you?"

Shen Qing didn't want to continue this topic, "It's better for Second Uncle to spend the night next door, and tomorrow morning we will go back to Shen's Xinghua Village together."

At night, Shen Hui sat on the kang and wiped away tears sadly.

Shen Qing couldn't sleep either, "I didn't expect Yang Xiuyuan to be an asshole, at the beginning he came here to ask for a kiss, but now he regrets it."

Shen Hui choked up and said, "Forget it, what happened to our family will make anyone feel bad, and I don't blame him."

Shen Qing sighed, "Forget it, sister, do you still remember his mother? When she first came to propose marriage, she kept her mouth shut about how good her son is, talented and good-looking, but she almost missed the number one exam. It’s so good, I’m so proud of it, but I heard people say that his family is just like that, and the whole family is stingy, a piece of salted fish can last for half a month, and it’s not willing to throw it away when it gets moldy.”

Shen Hui sighed: "It's all because of poverty, otherwise Uncle Huo would always say that we can't live together."

Thinking of old man Huo nagging, with a sad look on his face, both sisters laughed, and the laughter diluted a little bit of sadness.

The Shen family's old house is still the same as before, but things have changed.

Old Mrs. Shen still had a bad look on her face, "I thought you two were dead outside when you came back!"

Shen Hui only dared to hide behind her sister and show one eye.

Shen Qing retorted rudely, "Second uncle went to invite me in person, and it concerns my eldest sister's marriage, so why not come back?"

Grandma Shen was so angry that she stretched out her hand to pinch her, "You girl, she will play tricks, and I will deal with you later. What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and boil water to make tea. Later, when the Yang family comes, you have to talk to them. Sorry, it's all your mother..."

Shen Qing dodged, "Grandma, for a family like that, if my sister gets married, will life be easier?"

Granny Shen was so angry that she hit her again and said sternly: "You have to live a bad life. Who's life is not like this? Your sister has a good temper. She will endure everything. After one year, she will give the Yang family a big one." Fat boy, what else can the Yang family say?"

Shen Qing was speechless towards this old lady, treating her granddaughter like an animal, not a human being at all.

Shen Hui held her sister down and said nicely, "Grandma, don't be angry, we're going to boil the water right now."

She dragged Shen Qing into the kitchen.

At this time, Shen Changgui came back from outside with a shovel, glanced at the yard, and asked, "Mom, are those two girls back?"

Granny Shen pouted towards the kitchen, "He went into the kitchen and talked back to me as soon as he entered the door. He has been fooling around for the past few days. People from the Yang family will not mention it later."

Shen Changgui looked very unhappy, "I know." He thought about it, waiting for everyone to leave, it would be outrageous to have to use family methods to teach these two girls a lesson.

In the kitchen, Shen Qing stomped dissatisfiedly, "Sister, why are you dragging me? Do you still want to marry Yang Xiuyuan?"

Shen Hui put on her apron, scooped water and washed the pot, and kept busy, "If you don't want to get married, my mother just left. How can I rest assured that you are alone?"

She knew that with her younger sister's temper, she would definitely not want to go back to the Shen family.

If she got married, wouldn't my sister be all alone?

Besides, the Yang family came to cancel the engagement, not to rush it.

"That……"

"Then what, hurry up and light the fire. After the Yang family finishes talking, we still have to pack up our clothes. My mother and I made them by ourselves. We can't take advantage of others. Don't you want it?"

Shen Qing finally smiled, "Yes, of course I want it, don't want it for nothing, I have saved some private money!"

"I have it too."
