Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 48 The Jealous Women
"I just said how their family got poorer and poorer. It turns out that this is retribution."

"I said, no wonder why I saw that Wu Jingniang was so unpleasant." At this moment, a shrill female voice broke into the conversation of several women.

When everyone turned around, it turned out to be Xiaohua's aunt in the lobby, Wang Shi, and they immediately became angry. I have never seen a woman who is more open-mouthed than this woman.

"Let me tell you, their whole family is not a good guy. Look at that Wu Jingniang, just like that, she knows how to pretend to be weak in front of men every day. Then look at that little flower, who has no education since she was a child, and has a good tongue. Then look at their family That son is a fool at first glance, he can't even speak well, the old one is dim-sighted, and the young one is stupid. If you want me to say, this is retribution. Now he still wants to earn money from the folks, why doesn't God beat him? This thunder struck their house." This Wang family can finally play tricks in front of everyone, but since the marriage was broken, the head of her family has been talking coldly to her, and she has never given her a good face until now.The other 20 Wen of compensation was deducted by her privately.Why did Wu Jingniang, that bitch, know how to pretend, and when she saw her virtues, she panicked.

"I said it was early in the morning, what are you talking about?" At this time, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village head also came under the banyan tree. She didn't hear what it was before, but she heard everything that Wang said.I thought to myself, no wonder people want to cut off ties with you, with your character, it's better to break off as soon as possible.

"Hehe, it's nothing." The woman at the beginning pretended to be stupid.

"Yeah, we didn't say anything." The other few who said bad things together in the morning echoed.

"If you want me to tell you, why don't you go digging bamboo shoots? That's not cheap. You should know that ordinary vegetables are only 1 penny for 3 catties. Now Xiaohua's price is 2 pennies for [-] catties. You guys It's really stupid, and that's why their family dares to offer such a price." The village chief's daughter-in-law sighed deeply when she saw these women who only knew how to gossip.

"I said Cui Shi, if it's so good, why don't you go, you still have time to talk to us?" The first person who said at the beginning was Zhou Shi who came in last, but in fact, she left all these.

"Aren't I going to be busy? Our whole family is dispatched except for the father-in-law. I stay to watch the house and feed the chickens and pigs. You think I don't want to go, and I can make more money." The eldest son of the village chief Daughter-in-law Cui's tone was a little offended at the moment, who are these people.

"Let me tell you, if her family is really good for everyone, it should be 2 Wen a catty as they said. It used to be 1 Wen per catty, but now it is 3 Wen for 2 catties. Why do they still have to earn our money. Isn't this a black heart? Everyone from the village. Then I won't make this money, and I won't give it to her family." Zhou continued to speak.Anyway, the person in charge of her family has also gone out to work, and now she has the final say on everything in the family.

"Yes, yes, that's the truth." The other women echoed.

"Why don't I say that you are stupid, and you are just talking about your tongue without making good money. Let me tell you, which dish do you think can be sold so expensive now? It's already a big deal for people to give 3 catties and 2 Wen. Let's talk , the shopkeeper in the town gave Xiaohua's family 2 Wen and 1 catty. They found it specially because they liked Xiaohua's family and wanted to cooperate with them. Or you can find the bamboo shoots yourself and sell them to others. Can you accept it? At that time, let alone 2 cents per catty, I don’t think even 1 cent can be straightened. In addition, these bamboo shoots are all on Changzi Mountain and in the bamboo forest, so there is no need to spend money, so I will work hard and dig some back. Which one is better than working outside? The bamboo shoots are heavy, and if you dig dozens of catties a day, it will cost you dozens of pennies. That’s enough for the man in the family to go out to work for several days. Think about it for yourself.” Cui threw it down With these words, go home.

The women thought about it for a while, and it was the same reason. They are really stupid today.I just know that I'm wandering around, looking for people to talk about these things.Thinking about it, I wanted to find someone to learn how to dig bamboo shoots quickly.However, everyone around them followed, and it was not a coincidence that they went wherever they went, so they could only complain deeply in their hearts that Zhou Shi was the one who killed her.

Seeing this person leave, Mrs. Wang muttered inwardly: She doesn't bother to earn this kind of money.In fact, I was also secretly anxious, wondering if Xiao Hua's family would accept it if she went to dig bamboo shoots.He not only disdains Xiaohua's family, but also worries about whether the money can be earned.

As for the woman who was still talking about it just now, although she still felt that even if the price was so expensive, the Xiaohua family still made money from them. up.But when I thought about how much money I could make without spending much time, I became jealous.I heard that Shi Shi and the others earned more than 30 Wen in just a few hours in less than two days when they paid a catty and a penny.It seems that we should stay away from her in the future.

Unknowingly, the Zhou family has offended several women at the same time, just because it delayed them from making money.

The next day, almost all the laborers in the village were mobilized, mainly to see that the bamboo shoots dug up yesterday would get cash no matter how much they were.This is a great temptation for the villagers who usually want to spend a penny in half.Within two or three days, every family made money.

The Wang family and Fu Niuniang's family were also dispatched, but Xiaohua's family had severed ties with theirs, and it was difficult for this woman to come forward, so the man had to go to Wang Changgui and ask Wang Changgui to sell her.If it was sent directly to Xiaohua's house, not to mention that Xiaohua would not accept it, Jingniang would definitely not be able to pass that test.

Xiaohua and Jingniang sighed at home, now almost all the bamboo shoots that can be dug in this area have been dug up, and even the nearby villages also sent bamboo shoots to Xiaohua's house.

"Mother, I think I have collected almost a thousand catties these days. The family's money plus the money sent by Aunt Wang to the fourth floor, there is not much left to spend now. I see that there are only so many bamboo forests around. Almost everything that can be dug has been dug. Fortunately, the dug holes have been buried this time, but there are no bamboo shoots these days. What about it?" Xiaohua looked at the bamboo shoots piled up in the yard these two days and sighed.

Jing Niang looked at the mountains of bamboo shoots in front of her, frowned, and replied, "That's the only way to go. I'll let your Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang come over to pick up the bamboo shoots. Our family can't finish it, so let them do most of it." .”

the following afternoon.

"Xiaohua, Xiaohua's mother, is she at home?"

Xiao Hua rubbed her eyes, then pushed Jing Niang beside her: "Mom, someone is calling."

"Who, let your grandma take a look, my back hurts from the fall, please rest for a while."

"Is anyone home?" came the voice again from outside the yard.

Guessing that grandma was not at home, she took Xiao Zhuzi out and rushed out the door. Xiaohua looked at her mother who still had her eyes closed, so she had no choice but to get up.From yesterday's busy day to this morning, her mother was also exhausted, but in the end it was almost done. Originally, she was giving her mother a massage, but she fell asleep after pressing her.
