Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 26 I came up with a good idea
Five people only made two hundred yuan in the second half of the year. You can imagine how difficult it is to make money in rural areas in this era.

Xia Bin borrowed a cart, and several people pushed the grain home. The grains that needed to be ground and shelled, such as rice and wheat, were placed outside, and the remaining grain was put into the cellar.

There are four stone houses on the mountainside, but only Xia Chan's family has a cellar, because it is full of stones and it is difficult to dig. The cellar was dug out bit by bit by Xia Chan's father. The place under the firewood shed was very hidden. Except for the five brothers and sisters, no outsider knew about it.

In the past, when Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan's mother was still alive, rations were kept in the cellar of Xia Chan's house.

The food has just been distributed, and there are a lot of people going to the processing factory to grind the shells. After all, they have worked hard for so long, and they all want to eat something good, such as boiling rice or making dumplings or noodles. Xia Chan’s family still has food, no. Anxious to process food.

When everyone finished their work and sat down to rest, Xia Bin handed over this year's income to Xia Chan.

Xia Chan was a little surprised, "What are you doing for me?"

"You girls should be careful and know what is missing at home." Xia Bin said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll keep it first. When you need money, just tell me, or go to the box and get it yourself." Xia Chan put her wallet inside a patched old clothes, and then put the old clothes At the bottom of the wooden box containing clothes.

In this way, even a thief would never think that there was so much money in the tattered clothes.

At this time, Xia Qi brought the prepared medicine over. The dark bowl of medicine was still steaming. Just by smelling the smell, she knew that the medicine must be particularly bitter. Xia Chan wrinkled her delicate face. He frowned and looked at Xia Qi pitifully.

She really doesn’t want to drink it!
Xia Qi couldn't stand her look and turned her head away, "Xiao Chan, don't look at me. It's useless to look at me because I can't drink it for you. If I drink it, your toxins won't be eliminated."

"Okay!" Xia Chan did some mental preparation, then picked up the medicine and drank it in big gulps. If you drink it faster, you shouldn't feel the pain, right?

After quickly drinking a bowl of medicine, something was stuffed into Xia Chan's mouth. She licked it. It was sweet and had a milky taste. It turned out to be White Rabbit toffee. Her brother Qi was so careful. , even thought of this.

Next time she takes medicine, she will prepare some candies, pastries or dried fruits.

The camp hospital where Su Yu was staying was only a few hours away, so the baggage sent by Xia Chan arrived the next day. After Su Yu received the baggage, he smelled the smell and couldn't help but unpack it directly. .

After that, the things in her hand were divided among her colleagues in the hospital.

Of course, she also received benefits.

Xia Chan had health problems, so Xia Bin asked for leave from school for her. She would not attend classes at the end of this year, and would go back to school after the new year. The principal knew what Xia Chan had been through, and was very sympathetic, so he agreed directly. He personally took over Xia Chan's next courses, allowing her to concentrate on recuperation. So after the autumn harvest, the children went back to school, while Xia Chan rested at home, but she didn't rest, because she went up the mountain with her brothers every day. Her brothers chopped wood, and she picked mushrooms, chestnuts, nuts... Every day she harvested a lot. Since she only encountered one or two trees, not a forest, she didn't tell the village. Besides, every household in the village had someone looking for things in the mountains, and whoever found it would own it, so she didn't need to tell anyone.

Unless she encounters a large area with a large number of them, which needs to be reported to the village, she can't bear to eat them all by herself!
There were more and more firewood in the firewood shed, and more and more things were drying in the yard. Looking at these things, Xia Chan seemed to see white silver waving to her.

As long as the time is right, these things can be sold at a good price.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the wild celery is slowly withering. Xia Chan tells the children that she wants everything here, including wild vegetables, fungi, etc., but they must be dealt with cleanly. After all, they are from the city. If someone exchanges something, who would want it if it’s dirty?
With the children helping her collect these things, Xia Chan no longer felt anxious, but lived her own life at her own pace.

On this day, the family began to harvest sweet potatoes and corn in their yard. The brothers dug sweet potatoes, while Xia Chan collected the tenderest sweet potato tips. The sweet potato tips are delicious when fried, especially when fried with bacon. It's oily, emerald green, and looks very appetizing.

She didn't explain anything, and her brothers didn't care about her, they just did whatever she wanted.

Although the private plots in the four yards were not large, they also harvested several hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes and several hundred kilograms of corn. Later, they took the sweet potato vines to the village in exchange for work points, because cows and pigs eat this stuff, and as for the corn stalks, Spread it on the ground to dry, and when it is completely dry, you can use it to start a fire.

The sweet potatoes and corn have been harvested, followed by the cabbages and radishes. Winter is about to begin. The winter here is very cold. If the vegetables are not harvested, they will only freeze.

Xia Chan has a headache when she thinks that she can only eat radishes, cabbage and potatoes in winter. If she eats these things every day for several months, no one can stand it, right? I have a golden finger, so I can buy green leafy vegetables, but it’s hard to explain when I take them out!

Suddenly, a bright light lit up in Xia Chan's mind, and she thought of a good idea.

"Brother, I have to go out for something. I'll be back soon!" Xia Chan got up and patted the dust on her body, then went to the kitchen to get water to wash her hands and face, put some cream on her face, and carried a small basket go out.

On the way, she brought out two bowls of bacon and stir-fried wild celery from the hotel suite. When passing by the cowshed, she placed one bowl outside the cowshed door and took the other bowl to the village.

Arriving outside the door of the carpenter's house, Xia Chan reached out and knocked on the door. Soon the door opened, and the old carpenter appeared behind the door, "Xia Chan, why are you here?"

"Grandpa Wang, I want to see if you still have wooden basins here. The wooden basins at home are completely broken." Xia Chan walked into the courtyard with a small basket and then brought out the fried wild celery. "Grandpa Wang, we don't have anything good at home, so I brought you a bowl of fried wild celery. I hope Grandpa Wang doesn't dislike it, but the wild celery tastes really good."

Grandpa Wang is a carpenter in the village. He has been a craftsman for many years and his craftsmanship is very good. He can sell all the furniture, dowries and betrothal gifts that people in the village need. Even city people don’t buy furniture in order to save money. I went to the factory to buy furniture, and I also came over to Grandpa Wang to order furniture!

"You little kid, come here. What do you bring?" Grandpa Wang scolded on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart. Isn't it worth being happy to be remembered?
