Chapter 191 The Wind Has Changed
Yeran came back from the town yesterday and gave Aunt Wu the six hundred coppers she sold for cassia pillows.

A catty of cassia seeds costs twenty Wen, a cassia pillow requires three catties of cassia seeds, and three catties of cassia seeds costs sixty Wen; a foot of cloth for a pillowcase is enough, and the cloth used to make the pillowcase is about fifteen Wen a foot.

To make a cassia seed pillow, the cost is at most [-] Wen, but the price given by shopkeeper Lin is [-] Wen for a pillow.

If the sales of the cassia seed pillows are good, you can sew five more pillowcases a day after work, and earn a tael of silver, and the money will come too quickly.

Thinking that the goal of building a new house is getting closer, Aunt Wu is full of energy. Taking advantage of Yeran's time to wash dishes, she has already moved the table to the yard, took the cloth and cut it, and prepared to embroider pillowcases.

Xing'er carried a small bucket and accompanied Yue'er to the back slope to water the herbs.

After Yeran finished washing the dishes, Xing'er entered the kitchen with an empty bucket, and Yue'er, who followed closely behind him, looked depressed: "Mother, there are small holes growing on the herbs."

Herb worms?
Yeran was just trying to grow those herbs back then, and Yue'er took care of them all the time, but she didn't expect those herbs to grow very well.

Except for some watering, no further effort was made.

There are so many weeds on the back slope, can there be no insects?
The herb that Yue'er took care of had worms, and she felt very sad. Xing'er put down the bucket, comforted and held her little face, with a serious look on her face.

"Brother will help Yue'er catch bugs tomorrow!"

"Ok!"

Xiaoyue'er smiled with crooked eyebrows: "Brother is so kind."

Ye Ran couldn't help but smile a little at the scene of the brother and sister loving each other.

Those bugs grow up very quickly, and they can eat up the leaves in a few days. Can they catch them all?
Ye Ran thought of the apricot tree in Zhou Hai's family, where a huge pokeweed had grown, her eyes lit up, and she knelt down and hugged a pair of dolls.

"Little worms grow fast, and you can't catch them all. Let's get some medicinal powder and sprinkle it on, shall we?"

Early in the morning, Yue'er saw that the leaves were covered with small holes, and many small insects were crawling on the leaves. She was so sad that she almost cried.

Now hearing Yeran talk about sprinkling medicine powder, she flashed a pair of big bright eyes, put her arms around Yeran's neck, and asked in a childish voice: "Mother, are you going to the town to buy medicine powder?"

"No, we'll get the insect repelling powder ourselves."

Ye Ran took a rope, carried the medicine basket on her back, and led a pair of little buns out of the house.

These days, because of Zhang Guicai's collection of medicinal herbs, the villagers pointed at Yeran behind their backs, saying that she was earning everyone's hard-earned money against her conscience.

Yesterday, I learned that Li Zhaodi's aunt was kicked out by the Xiao family. She used the name of the Xiao family to sell medicinal herbs at Yuanjitang, but was beaten out by the boy with a broom. The direction of the wind has completely changed.

Along the way, many people greeted Ye Ran.

"Morning, Ranniang!"

"Is Ran Niang taking Xinger Yueer to dig herbs?"

"Ranniang is so diligent!"

"These two babies look really good, you are so lucky, Ranniang."

Xing'er still remembered how these people talked about her mother a few days ago?
The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and there was a hint of sarcasm and disdain in his small eyes.

On the other hand, Yue'er, when Ye Ran responded with a smile, her mouth was very sweet, and grandma, aunt, and aunt yelled all the way, making the women in the village squint their eyes.

Those people are not good to mother, why should they call them?
Walking under the apricot tree next to Zhou Hai's house, Xing'er was a little impatient: "Mother, are you going to buy medicine powder from Grandpa Zhou?"

"Grandpa Zhou treats people, not medicine."

Ye Ran patted the boy's head, and pointed to the lush pokeweed not far from the apricot tree: "Go pick those berries..."
