Chapter 259
Snake bites mouse?

Those who are thieves are not mice?
Thanks to his little apprentice who figured it out, with that woman's cleverness, I believe that when I hear the news of who was bitten by a snake in the village tomorrow, I must know who stole the blue bricks.

The next day, people from the Zhou family came to work, and Zhou Zhijie picked a brick to go to the new house.

When he came back to pick up the bricks, he asked Yeran who was washing the clothes: "Mother Ran, did you hear anything last night?"

"No!"

Yeran asked strangely: "Is there another brick missing?"

"That's not true. The dustpan brick that was deliberately placed under the wall was moved last night."

When Zhou Zhijie picked up the bricks and left, he muttered: "Mr. Yin also said that no one came last night. I clearly remembered that the bricks were not placed like that. Could it be that I misremembered..."

Yin Tian hadn't left the cave last night, so the new house was right next to the cave. With Yin Tian's skill, if someone came to steal the bricks, he would definitely be able to hear the movement outside.

Zhou Zhijie must have been too preoccupied with building a new house for her family and forgot.

After Yeran rubbed a basin of clothes, she was going to scoop water into the jar, when Zhou Yunzhu pushed open the fence door and came in.

"Ranniang, I have collected a lot of herbs, when are we going to Ozawa Town?"

A few days ago, Yeran just went to Xiaoze Town to deliver bluegrass ointment, which was a full hundred cans.

Last time the [-] cans were sold for almost a month, Ye Ran thought about the cooler weather and fewer mosquitoes, this time the [-] cans have only been sold for a few days, no matter how good the sales are, they will never be sold out.

So before the ointment was boiled and sold in the herbal hall, Zhou Yunzhu reminded her, Yeran asked, "How many herbs did you collect?"

Zhou Yunzhu looked excited: "All kinds of medicinal herbs weigh about twenty catties, waiting for you to go to the herbal hall."

Harvesting medicinal herbs does not delay her digging efforts. In the past few days, she has collected more than [-] catties of medicinal herbs. She earns a net profit of five Wen for a catty of medicinal herbs, and a net profit of one hundred Wen for twenty catties of medicinal herbs.

Plus a hundred or so wax gourds, she can get a penny each, and here can earn more than 100 pennies, and the family digs a few catties of herbs.

Calculated, in just a few days, she earned nearly three hundred Wen.

Those men in the village only paid fifteen cents for a day's work as a helper. It took a full 20 days to do it for a full [-] days before she could earn as much copper as she did in a few days.

She thought that twenty catties of herbs was enough, but Yeran poured cold water on her head: "That's all!"

"That's a lot!"

Zhou Yunzhu said anxiously: "There are a hundred more wax gourds. I dried them, and I can't fit that many in a basket."

Last time, Yeran sold feces winter melon and made a full two taels of silver. Hearing what Zhou Yunzhu said, Yeran became a little interested.

"I'll go to the mountains tomorrow and pick some herbs to make ointment."

Ye Ran scooped up water to rinse and wash the clothes: "Wait for two more days, you've collected [-] catties of medicinal herbs, and my ointment is ready. I'll let Yin Tian take it to town."

In the past few days, Yeran has been doing acupuncture for Yin Tian, ​​and the last time the shopkeeper Li gave him medicine, he could only survive for seven or eight days.

In two days, his medicine ran out and he was going to the town to get it.

By the way, let him go to Yunzhu's house last week to pick up the medicinal herb and bring it to the herbal hall to sell.

"Ranniang, you go to the mountains to collect herbs, do you want to collect the herbs for my husband's treatment?"

When Zhou Yunzhu heard that Ye Ran was going into the mountains to collect herbs, she excitedly held her wrist.

The medicinal material to detoxify Lu Jun has to be found in the deep mountains, and I can't go back and forth in a day, so I have to stay in the mountains for two or three days. I'm building a house right now, so I don't have time to go to the deep mountains yet.
