The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Chapter 98: You are stupid and have a lot of money, but you still don’t care?

Old Man Li counted on his fingers, "These bricks are not enough to build the workshop, but they are not enough to build the house we live in."

Li Xiaoyue smiled and didn't take it seriously, "Then let's buy red bricks from other places and hire more people to work."

Time is money, we have to race against time, and at the same time, we also want to improve our lives.

She makes money just to make her life better and more convenient.

For example, renovating dry toilets, special washrooms, and various convenient facilities...

Old Man Li nodded, fully supporting his daughter's decision, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

In the following days, Li Xiaoyue took Qin Yuyao and Li Changhuan to dye wool.

Li Changhuan looked at the tender water-red color and said, "Mom, I like this color. Can I use wool of this color to make clothes in the future?"

Li Xiaoyue happily agreed, "Of course!"

Qin Yuyao also became lively, as if she had found something she was interested in, "Aunt Yue, I like light green, I want light green woolen clothes."

"Okay!" Li Xiaoyue said with a smile, and smiled at Li Changle who was eager to try. "Changle, you can choose whatever you want. But when the time comes, you will have to do it yourself."

Although Li Xiaoyue can knit sweaters, if she is asked to knit sweaters for the whole family, she may not be able to knit well even if her fingers are broken.

In ancient times, girls became popular since elementary school and made clothes for themselves and their families.

The dyeing was successful and the dyes were all vegetable.

Although there will be some fading, the sweater does not need to be washed frequently, so it will not have a big impact.

Li Changhuan and Qin Yuyao are responsible for dyeing at home. Their skills are getting better and better, and the dyeing is becoming more and more uniform.

In the past, lime was used to clean wool, and all the water was poured into the stream. Now Li Xiaoyue discovered another wonderful use.

She discovered that Lihua Village had a large area of ​​acidic soil with almost no weeds.

Mixing the wool-soaked lime with water and pouring it into the land can neutralize the acidity and gradually restore the soil to a soil suitable for growing crops.

Therefore, Li Xiaoyue specially asked people to dig up the acidic soil, select out the stones, and then pour the lime water into the fields.

The whole family doesn't understand, but no one dares to refute Li Xiaoyue now.

People in the village don’t have so many taboos.

Especially Patriarch Li, he went to Old Man Li angrily and said, "Heizi, your Xiaoyue family makes a lot of money, but you can't waste it like this. It's not troublesome to let people dig through those barren wastelands, but they actually put those Carrying buckets of lime water over there is really nothing to do. Spending money in vain is really stupid."

During this time, Old Man Li was helping his daughter build a workshop and had no time to pay attention to other things.

At this time, Li Heifeng suddenly became unhappy when he heard Patriarch Li saying that his daughter, Qian Duoduo, was stupid.

Although he did not understand the specific situation, it did not affect Li Heifeng's preference for his daughter.

"I'm telling you, Patriarch, please don't talk about my daughter like that. Who can make use of those discarded stone nirvana powder like my daughter?"

"You have seen those spinning machines before. The wool threads spun are fast and good, and they can also spin hemp threads. Others can't think of it, but my daughter can figure it out. Even Carpenter Sun praised my daughter."

"Anyway, my daughter is smart and what she wants to do makes sense. If you don't know, don't talk nonsense."

Patriarch Li was so choked by Li Heifeng that he couldn't breathe. A skinny old man was so angry that he was shaking all over, "Okay, if you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer the consequences. I want you to persuade Xiaoyue, but it's good for you, but you don't appreciate it."

"I appreciate it, I appreciate it very much!" Old Man Li was worried that this enthusiastic little old man would be pissed off by him.It's such a hot day, so busy, and you have to pick up an old man to take him to the funeral. How unlucky!
When Patriarch Li heard that Li Heifeng had relented, he stopped being angry and said, "Go and tell him quickly, don't waste your time."

"Let's go now." Old Man Li hurriedly agreed. He was really afraid that if he acted too slowly, the little old man would become so angry that he would become stubborn.

Old man Li didn't bother to wash his hands and came to the house to look for Li Xiaoyue.

"Xiaoyue, why are you working so hard to get that dirty water into those wastelands? Although the place is not barren, it can't grow crops."

Li Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and then she thought that her family had been looking at her strangely recently, and now she found out the reason.

I think she is a fool and is confused!

"I read in a farming book that using lime water can improve barren land. Those barren lands are all on my land deed. If we can turn them into fertile land to grow crops, we can harvest more."

Old Man Li was stunned, "Liu Yunde, a man who doesn't work hard and doesn't distinguish between grains and grains, can read agricultural books? Where is it? Show me?"

Li Xiaoyue spread her hands, "You also said that Liu Yunde is not diligent and indifferent to grains. How could he keep books that are useless to him? They have been burned long ago, taking up space."

"Fortunately, I remembered some of it, and it happened that we have wasteland at home, and there is so much lime water. Add some water to dilute it, sprinkle it on the soil, and give it a try."

"If it fails, it will just cost some money and waste some time. If it succeeds, Dad, we can farm in many places in Lanshan County."

Hearing this, Old Man Li stroked his beard. He originally came here to persuade his daughter not to act recklessly, but he didn't expect to be persuaded by her so quickly.

"Okay, let's give it a try." Old Man Li chuckled, "If the clan leader knew that the lime water could improve the land, he would probably sleep there with a broken mat every day."

Li Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled, "Grandpa, the patriarch, he has a lot to worry about. But it's good to think more and live longer."

"Who says it's not the case?" Old Man Li said with a smile, "He also has good intentions. I will go back and talk to him to reassure him."

"Yes, don't let him worry." Li Xiaoyue replied, "Dad has been working hard these days. Bao Jiaoer tonight, dad, come over for dinner tonight."

It's not that she doesn't want to invite her mother's family to eat together, it's just that there are too many people, and with her big family, she probably has to set up three tables.

Packing Jiao Er for a day may not be enough to eat.

Old Man Li smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come over later."

He likes to eat Jiao Er, but it’s too laborious to make dumplings once and there are many people in his family, so he doesn’t eat them often.

After Patriarch Li learned from Old Man Li the reason why Li Xiaoyue did this, he was also dubious.

However, he thought that Li Xiaoyue had made two successful attempts before. If he could succeed this time, he would really make a lot of money.

One tael of silver can buy three to five acres of barren land with no grass growing on it. If the government encourages people to farm mulberry trees, half of it will be sold and half given away. One tael of silver can buy up to eight acres of wasteland.

From that day on, Patriarch Li, a energetic little old man, although he did not have food and accommodation on the ground, he would always wander over after eating three meals a day.

Sometimes they secretly throw some grass seeds into the soil that has been sprinkled with lime water to see if they can germinate.

In Li Xiaoyue's eyes, she didn't expect so much. She wanted to open up the business territory as soon as possible and make a lot of money.

Patriarch Li, who has matured into a mature man, has experienced years of famine and war, and he knows the importance of food.

In extreme circumstances, gold, silver and jewelry cannot be used as food, but with food, you can fill your stomach and survive.
