Chapter 12
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell soybeans?"

Hey, the little girl asked what to do with soybeans, and they couldn’t be used as dry food.

At this time, soybeans were mostly used to feed livestock. The livestock grew fat after eating the soybeans. People didn't eat them very much. They only fried them and used them as snacks.

"Thirty cents per catty." The shopkeeper replied neatly.

"Shopkeeper, you see we have bought so much grain. You can give it cheaper and I will ask for more." Yue Mingzhu bargained for the price skillfully.

What?My little sister wants to buy soybeans?People are almost out of food, so why not buy soybeans for the livestock?
No matter how much he doted on his little sister, he couldn't let her waste money like this.

"Little sister, this is not delicious. It is for livestock. Big brother will buy you meat buns and snacks." Yue Mingqiang hurriedly coaxed the little sister, thinking that the little sister was just curious.

"Brother, I know, I'm useful, don't worry."

Yue Mingqiang really couldn't do anything to his little sister. If this was his son, he would drag him away, but his little sister couldn't.

Okay, okay, let's buy it. Anyway, we raise chickens at home. At worst, we can feed them and lay more eggs.

"Okay, then it's 25 cents per catty." The shopkeeper happily lowered the price.

After all, people were running out of food. Who had money to buy food for the livestock? Soybeans were really hard to sell. He couldn't sell a pound for many days. If he couldn't sell them anymore, he was afraid that they would get moldy and damage his hands.

It's not easy to meet a stupid person, the selling point is the point, at least it doesn't break the bank.

Yue Mingzhu bought fifty kilograms of soybeans and thirty kilograms of mung beans under the eyes of her elder brother in disbelief.

Soybeans cost 25 cents per catty, which cost 1250 cents, and mung beans cost 900 cents per catty, totaling 2150 cents.

For God's sake, he only has 550 coins left in his hand now.

What should he explain when he goes back? Will I beat him to death?

He was afraid that his mother would scold his little sister. Of course, this possibility was almost non-existent, but he still raised his voice and said to Yue Mingzhu: "Little sister, don't talk when you get home. Just think that the soybeans and mung beans are what the elder brother wants to buy."

Yue Mingzhu found it funny and comforted her eldest brother: "Brother, don't worry, these I bought are really useful and can make money."

The eldest brother still doesn't believe it. What's the use? The younger sister is a little girl. What can she know?

Since they bought a lot of grain, the owner of the grain store agreed to send it home in an ox cart, and the brother and sister took the opportunity to take the grain store's ox cart home.

Yue Mingqiang was worried all the way, thinking about what to say when he got home so that I could beat him more gently.

Alas, it's so embarrassing for him to be beaten by his mother in front of his juniors at such an old age!
The bullock cart pulled several bags of grain into the village, and the villagers chatting on the street saw it at a glance.

"Oh, I have to buy several hundred kilograms of grain."

"This family is really rich. My family is almost out of food. We eat wild vegetables every day. How many days will it take to eat so much food?"

"I bought it after selling the fish. I caught two big buckets of fish yesterday. Hey, I knew fish was valuable now. I didn't expect it could be exchanged for so much food. This is equivalent to picking up for nothing. When will my family have something like this? luck."

The villagers had all kinds of things to say, some were envious, and some made sarcastic remarks.

This is human nature, so the brother and sister didn't care. After greeting the villagers, they entered the house.

Mrs. Wang and others heard the commotion and came out to greet them. They were overjoyed when they saw so much food on the ox cart. These days, there is no real food, so if you have food, you won't panic.

Without help from others, Yue Mingqiang could move the food into the house alone. However, when he walked to the door of the house, he almost tripped over the threshold because he was thinking about something.

Seeing that the grain was about to fall to the ground, a man came over, supported Yue Mingqiang with one hand, and took the grain with the other.

It's my little sister!
Yue Mingqiang was shocked, how could the little sister be so strong? You must know that this bag of grain weighed almost a hundred kilograms, and the little sister could lift it with one hand, plus he was a big man.

Oh my god, little sister, what’s going on!Mrs. Wang also saw it and asked Yue Mingzhu to put the food on the ground. After telling her eldest son to keep his mouth shut, she quickly took Yue Mingzhu back to the room.

"Zhuzhu, mother told you not to show your strength." Mrs. Wang was a little nervous.

My daughter has been very strong since she was a child. She is not as strong as an ordinary girl. When she was just over a year old and could walk, she could move a big stone at the door.

The big stone at the door was used for sitting on it and resting on it. It weighed seventy or eighty kilograms, so Xiao Mingzhu was able to lift it easily.

At that time, Mrs. Wang was petrified. This was not the strength that a normal person should have.

She was afraid that others would say her daughter was a monster, so she had told her countless times in private not to let her daughter show her strength in front of others, after all, people were afraid of words.

Although Mrs. Wang gave her many warnings, she was still afraid that her daughter would be too young to control her, so she would not let her go out when she was young. Even if she went out, she would accompany her.

It was only in the past two years that my daughter got older and felt that she had grown up, so I let her go out.

I didn't expect it to be exposed again today. Fortunately, I was at home and no one saw it. This also shocked the old lady into a cold sweat.

Yue Mingzhu had already discovered the abnormality of this body, as she punched the coffin board when she passed through.

The coffin is made of thick solid wood, which ordinary people cannot do.

"Mom, I understand. It won't happen again. Don't worry." Yue Mingzhu saw her mother's worry and comforted her in a low voice.

Hearing what her daughter said, Mrs. Wang could only let go of her worries temporarily.

She had hidden the fact that her daughter was born with supernatural powers for many years. Only the mother and her daughter knew about it, and no one else in the family, not even her own old man, knew about it.

She doesn't know whether it's a blessing or a curse. She has no other requirements for her daughter. She only hopes that her daughter can live a stable life, with no worries about food and clothing, peace and joy.

In fact, Yue Mingzhu doesn't think that natural supernatural power is a bad thing. Instead, she thinks it is a gift from God.

It is not easy for a woman. She has strength and can protect herself and her family at critical moments.

"Mom, I sold fish today and got a lot of money. I bought a lot of food. Come on, let's go out and have a look. I have something to talk to everyone later." Yue Mingzhu diverted her mother's attention.

As expected, Mrs. Wang no longer thought about it and went out to look at the food with her daughter.

When she saw 200 kilograms of grains and white flour and polished rice, Mrs. Wang beamed with joy and felt that the boss was really stable and knew how to handle things.

When he saw soybeans and mung beans, he picked up the cane on the side without saying a word and wanted to beat the eldest son.

Prodigal son!

Yue Mingqiang had been prepared a long time ago. When she saw her mother holding the cane, she ran into the yard with a roar.

"Mother, mother, listen to me." Yue Mingqiang tried to explain while running.

The old lady refused to listen to his explanation and chased after him, hoping to beat her unreliable eldest son to death.

Yue Mingzhu once again gained a new understanding of the old lady's vigorous vitality.

After coming back to his senses, he quickly stepped forward to stop me, "Mom, don't hit me, I want to buy it."

"Don't protect your elder brother. I have to teach him a lesson today. The child is so old and still so unreliable." Mrs. Wang didn't believe it.

"It's true, mother, I bought these for use."

Old Mrs. Wang was doubtful, so she decided not to beat her eldest son to save face for her daughter.
