Fertile land

Chapter 62

"Dad, each jar of this fungus oil weighs about ten kilograms, and the amount of mushrooms required is only 23 kilograms. We will collect the excess and dry it in the sun for emergencies."

"Well, this is a good idea."

The growth conditions of this fungus are limited on the mountain, so there are not many of them.

But if you pick too much, it will rot and get insects in the rainy weather. It would be a pity if you don’t pick it in the mountains...

If you dry it, it won't be wasted.

Luo Zhi'er didn't think of this when he was at the restaurant. You can't guarantee how much dry food you can collect for Yumanlou.

Another point is that she mainly wants to sell and promote other new products, that is the famous scallion oil.

I made up my mind to buy some more onion seedlings when the goods are delivered next time and plant them in the garden.

"When is the next delivery?"

"Two days later."

"Oh, if that's the case, you have to hurry up and collect the chicken fir fungus. Daqiang, how is your wife's health?"

Old Li Tou asked.

"Dad, Mu Qing's wife is probably going to have to lie down for a few days... Look..."

He looked at Mr. Zhou and said a little embarrassed.

"Bah! Little Hoof is suffering from laziness. What's wrong with women! I don't know about her?"

"Mom, she is really not feeling well. She was beaten yesterday. Dr. Li has prescribed medicine for her to lie down for at least three days. As you can see, I gave her some medicine in the morning and just drank it in the evening. Just fell asleep..."

"Hmph! Let's agree first that I don't care about the money you owe Mr. Li!"

Li Daqiang's face turned red. His mother was still angry about what happened yesterday. She thought that she didn't take it seriously when Luo Zhi'er asked her to apologize to Miao Miao. Why did she end up with his wife?
It’s probably because I have no future and no money!

There was also a hint of displeasure on Lao Li's face. Do you want to rest for three days?
During the busy farming season, everyone in the family is very busy. She has slept all day today. Will she continue to sleep tomorrow?
Lao Li's head and face were hit by a bamboo stick just now, and it felt like an earthworm crawled from the bridge of his nose to his forehead...

After a long sigh, the earthworm moved, which was a bit scary and funny.
"Tomorrow, Daqiang and I will go rake up the land. Third brother, you go up and down the mountain and come back and help in the field. Third wife, I will trouble you to go up the mountain to collect the mushrooms yourself."

Luo Zhi'er was speechless. After doing it for a long time, she went alone.

"Fuck, go if you have time."

"...You go to work in the fields, and I don't cook at home? That little hooves is lying in the house like a dead pig, lazy and won't come out..."

"Your son has to leave tomorrow, so I have to prepare my luggage to see him off!"

The weather was too hot. It would be strange if she didn't get a heatstroke when she went uphill. They were not here to cook something delicious for Gui'er when she stayed at home. She also brought some dry food with her...

"That's true."

Old Li Tou almost forgot about this. He had to give the money to Lao Wu before going to work in the fields tomorrow morning.

Luo Zhi'er didn't want to go with her, she would rather go alone.

Zhou's appearance reminded her of the time she had just passed through.

Now the target has been changed to her former favorite daughter-in-law, Xiao Zhou.

Luo Zhi'er directly said to Lao Li Tou: "Dad, you are busy in the fields and the delivery is still two days away. It shouldn't be a problem for me to pick it myself. Since my fifth brother is going to study in the town, my mother can stay at home to see him off." !”

"Okay, then the third daughter-in-law has to do the hard work." Old Li nodded, the third daughter-in-law was still sensible.

Li Sanmao sat aside and listened to their conversation silently, without saying a word about Luo Zhi'er's purchase of the land.

After the discussion, a few people went back to the house to sleep. Seeing her leaving, Mrs. Zhou quickly called out to Luo Zhi'er and asked her to wash the dishes before going to bed. Luo Zhi'er said, "Mom, my waist is almost broken after running all day today." Well, I have to go pick mushrooms early tomorrow morning!"

"Dad, you see, it's not good to delay the delivery to Yumanlou. Then I'll give you a hard wash."

After saying that, he stood up and rubbed his waist: "Ouch, ouch! This waist is going to be broken, it really hurts me to death!" and left.

Lao Litou felt deeply that his waist was about to break!
Mrs. Zhou's face turned livid with anger, "This fat hooves is getting more and more thief now. I didn't dare to reply even half a word before, didn't I just earn two silver coins?" Look at how awesome she is, how dare he disobey her orders!
"Okay, mother, didn't you just say you were going to wash the dishes! Why are you starting to make trouble again now? The third wife is right, she will be compensated three times the amount of money for any delay in delivery!"

Old Li Tou glanced at her impatiently. He had found such an unreasonable woman in his life, which was why he lived in such a restless house.

"Do you have any money to compensate?"

"You... you won't pay compensation even if you have me!"

"You can't teach a stupid woman!" The old man couldn't bear it anymore, stood up and went to sleep in the house, too lazy to pay attention to her anymore...

"Tch!" Mrs. Zhou was so angry that her nostrils were in the sky. When she saw several people finishing their work, they slapped their butts and left. She was left to work alone in the middle of the night, and she was so angry that she dropped the pots and bowls clinking.

After yelling and cursing in the kitchen for a while, I had to roll up my sleeves and wash the dishes...

Li Gui covered his ears with the quilt in the house. He took a look at the window just now and saw that he had some money.

He still got 15 taels at once. Looking at it, he should not be short of tuition when he leaves tomorrow. Otherwise, he would have to ask his wife for a guarantee and make up for it later. This was the case before.

He is pretending to be pitiful, and his mother should give him more money...

Thinking about it, I felt very happy. I was finally leaving this noisy home and could see her... I had several sweet dreams in a row one night.

After leaving the main hall door, Luo Zhi'er called to Li Daqiang, "By the way, brother, wait a moment, I have something for you."

Li Daqiang stopped and looked at Li Sanmao doubtfully. Li Sanmao nodded kindly to him.

He stops.

Watching the plump back of the third sister-in-law trot into their room, she came out after a while.

"Brother, these are the pens, ink and paper I bought for Mu Qing and Yun Liang in town today, as well as the bouquet for Liu Liu."

"Third siblings... this..."

Li Daqiang's eyes were filled with disbelief and hesitation.

Standing opposite him honestly, no matter how much he thought about it, he never expected that his third brother and sister would buy something for his baby.

And Liu Liu’s?
"Third brother and sister, why are you buying these things... spending all this money..."

Where can the third brother and sister get any money?Will her parents talk about her?
Luo Zhi'er could tell what he was thinking at a glance: "Brother, just take it. I bought this with the reward money shopkeeper Zhu gave me. You can take it with confidence."

Luo Zhi'er handed it to him.

"So it is."

After looking at Li Sanmao, she saw that the reward she got was probably a few dozen cents. He also allowed her to spend money randomly, but he still bought things for his child, and he felt a sense of shame in his heart.

"Then eldest brother thanks the third brother and his sister for their kindness."

I touched the paper, it was rice paper, and the pen was also a good one.

In the morning, his wife still said that she was selfish in front of him, and she didn't say a word to help them yesterday.

He also felt that the third child was too indifferent. Yesterday morning there was a scene at home and he ran to the mountains to hide away.

When he came back at night, he didn't start a fight. He watched his mother beating his wife and him...

Who would have thought that he made money without saying a word, and today he bought pens, ink and paper for Mu Qingyunliang to use in school.

As parents, neither of them thought about this. Even if they thought about it, they would not have any money, so they would have to ask their parents for it. At that time, there would be a lot of accusations and complaints...

"Brother, this is what Zhi'er means. If you want to thank you, just thank her. You don't have to thank me."

"Hey! Third brother and sister, thank you for your kindness."

"No need, brother, it's nothing. As a third aunt, I am also happy that Mu Qingyunliang can study."

Li Daqiang watched Luo Zhi'er and his wife go back to the third-bedroom house side by side, chatting and laughing, with envy in his eyes.
