Orion's pretty daughter-in-law

Chapter 18

The corner of Luo Jinxiu's mouth twitched, and she said in a bad mood: "Auntie, you have to hand over all the money you earn when you go home. It's hard to explain if you lose money, so you'd better bear with it."

But Mrs. Wang frowned, with a displeased expression on her face: "Just a few pennies, when the time comes, you can sell a few more copies for five pennies, and it's just a matter of matching the money."

Luo Jinxiu raised her eyebrows, feeling amused in her heart.

It's only the second day, and this woman is thinking of colluding with her for petty money?Today I can use it to buy some melon seeds and tea, and tomorrow I can buy nothing. The few pennies are for nothing. After a long time, it becomes a habit, and it should become her "fixed income".

After handing over the money to Li Shuxiu, it's up to Mrs. Wang or Ms. Zhang and Mrs. Zhao how to extract the money from the old lady, but when the money is in her hands, nothing can go wrong, so as not to cause trouble.

"Auntie, don't embarrass me. Grandma will blame me if you have less money when you go home. Let's sell all the leftover candied haws and go home early. You will have water to drink when you get home. If you really want to eat Melon seeds, turn around and tell grandma, if her old man agrees, I will buy some for you when she comes tomorrow."

Wang's expression choked, and she couldn't speak for a while, but just spat, and said angrily: "It's really stupid, I don't know how to change it at all!"

Yun Jinghao and Luo Jinxiu pretended not to hear anything, and another customer came to buy candied haws, so they completely ignored Mrs. Wang.

Because the total quantity is much more than yesterday, all the candied haws were not sold out until near Shenshi today. For lunch, I bought steamed buns from home in the morning, but I made a lot of money. I can probably apply to the old lady in the future. Buy some simple food solutions online.

On the way back, Mrs. Wang seemed to have forgotten the little conflict before, so she repeatedly asked Luo Jinxiu how much money she made today.

Luo Jinxiu casually perfunctory, did not say the specific number, and only reported to Li Shuxiu when she got home.

Three hundred strings of big and small candied haws were sold for a total of 660 five cents!Among them, the cost of rock sugar used is about 200 Wen, and the net profit is [-] Wen!
After two days, he had earned half a tael of silver, and the Yun family was all crazy with joy.

But also because there are too many candied haws made in the past two days, there is not much rock candy left. I will use it for another day tomorrow, and I have to buy some more when I come back.

This time, Li Shuxiu didn't feel pain in the slightest. Instead, she actively expressed that she would buy more candy. The more candy they bought, it meant that they would sell more candied haws and earn more money. !
This is a great thing!

In this way, the Yun family went to the town to sell candied haws every day for three consecutive days, and the third day happened to catch up with the small market in the town. No matter how much the Yun family tried to hide it, the villagers still found out that they sold candied haws to make money , and there was a lot of discussion about it, and I was surprised.

Some were surprised, and many were envious.

For those who heard that the red hair in the mountains will be coated with a thick layer of sugar, the first reaction is 'how much money will be spent on this'!
People in the village generally live in poverty, and there are not a few people who are stingy like Li Shuxiu. Even if they know that they can make a living, they must have made money, but they feel pain when they think of making a lot of money first. Hold a wait-and-see attitude, but no one wants to follow suit.

Even so, there are quite a few people who are jealous and say sour words.

The female family members of the Yun family are also sharp-tongued. When they meet those who speak sour words, they scold them back unceremoniously. Among the three sisters-in-law, Mrs. Wang is the most quick-tempered and the most thoughtless. She even directly scolded those people for thinking about their family's money, which offended many blind dates.

When the family had dinner together as usual in the evening, the old lady Li Shuxiu poisoned the three of Zhang and said: "If anyone in the village asks how much money you have earned, none of you are allowed to speak out! So as not to be missed by them!"

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother! If you know how much money you have, it's enough for your family to know. How can you say it casually? Don't you know what our temperament is? It's whether some people's mouths are strict enough. I don't know."

Luo Jinxiu felt that Wang's eyes seemed to have swept over her, and she knew the reason why this woman stabbed her these two days, she just thought it was ridiculous, and she didn't bother to pay attention to it.

But what's even more ridiculous is that Li Shuxiu and the others completely listened to her hints, and all looked at her with obvious suspicious and distrustful eyes.

Luo Jinxiu: "..." Hehe!
Isn't it just earning one or two taels of silver? Everyone thinks it's worth showing off and everyone knows it.

Li Shuxiu didn't care what she thought, and warned directly: "Jing Hao's family, you heard everything your aunt said, don't just say anything, if you let me know that you talk nonsense, I will deal with you!"

Yun Deshun looked at the eldest son who had been silent all this time, "Take care of your wife's mouth."

It took Luo Jinxiu a lot of effort not to roll her eyes in front of everyone.

These guys are really endless, making it seem like she really has a big mouth!
"From Jing Hao's family, did you hear what the elders said, squeak! You can't shout when you are shouting in the town, why are you dumb now! I don't know how your natal family taught it. It's really not polite at all. I don't understand." Wang slandered her again without hesitation.

The faces of the rest of the Yun family also had similar emotions on their faces.

Luo Jinxiu's swear words almost came to his lips, but when he caught a glimpse of Yun Jinghao's tense jaw and those deep eyes holding back his anger and displeasure, he couldn't help but feel his heart move, and most of his unhappiness was washed away , stretched out one hand to hold Yun Jinghao's clenched hand without any trace, pressed it suggestively, and then said to Li Shuxiu: "... I heard, don't worry, I won't talk nonsense .”

It's not worth getting angry with this group of crazy guys!

It doesn't matter how the rest of the Yun family don't like her, it doesn't matter if they don't believe her, as long as Yun Jinghao doesn't let her be said indifferently, that's enough.

……

Unknowingly, the Yun family’s candied haws business has lasted for ten days. Except for the fact that there was an autumn rain one day and he was unable to go to the town, the income of the nine days added up to more than three taels of silver. The vacation at the academy was over and he left Yun's house. Mrs. Li Shuxiu gave him a lot of money when he left.

Yun Jinghao and Luo Jinxiu were marginal people in Yun's family, and no one would tell them anything, but she still found out when Yun Xiaoting and Yun Xiaoyan were muttering in private. Yao took five taels of silver, and estimated that he had given away all the earnings of the past few days, and added some extra.

For this second grandson, no matter the old man or the old lady, they completely ignored Yun Jinghao's attention and love as the eldest grandson, and anyone who was short of food and drink would definitely pay close attention to Yun Chengyao.

Everyone in the Yun family has long been accustomed to this.

Luo Jinxiu didn't care about these things either. What she cared about was that after ten days of conscientiously waking up early every day to make candied haws and selling them in the town, she would not waste any money, nor would she take the initiative to ask the old lady for her hard-earned money. In addition, she didn't talk back to any elders in the family during this time, so the old lady finally let her guard down, and she took the initiative to ask her and Yun Jinghao to go to town tomorrow when she was having dinner that night, and took Wang's stayed.

Of course Mrs. Wang was unwilling, but the old lady made up her mind, "Your second sister-in-law is busy at home these days. The elders take the younger generation up to the mountain to pick fruits every day and don't have time to do housework. There are too many three people to sell candied haws in the town. It's gone, it's not much use if you go with me, it's better to stay at home and help your second sister-in-law do housework together."

She was not afraid that Luo Jinxiu would take the opportunity to make small moves. The old lady had carefully estimated the daily income of the candied haws business in the past few days, and she felt that with her in charge, Luo Jinxiu would not have the opportunity to steal money.

Mrs. Wang still wants to continue to fight, but she can't find a suitable reason. Mrs. Zhao has seen her complexion really bad these two days, and she is probably depressed by a lot of housework. I will agree, and my sister-in-law is afraid that she will also make trouble.

Even if the matter was settled, the old lady carefully observed Luo Jinxiu's expression after she finished speaking, and she was a little relieved when she saw that there was no trace of complacency on her face.

If the girl immediately put on an elated or joyful look, making it clear that she wanted to take advantage, she might have to change her mind.

Late at night, in a small room.

Luo Jinxiu kept her eyes open in the dark without turning her head, and asked in a low voice, "How much tremella matsutake have you saved these days? Sell it tomorrow, is it enough?"

Yun Jinghao turned his head, looked at the vaguely visible silhouette around him, and also replied in a low voice: "The matsutake weighs about three catties, the bamboo fungus weighs more than two catties, and the white fungus is the least, only fifteen."

"A lot!" Luo Jinxiu's voice revealed a tinge of joy, "If there are no accidents, the fifteen flowers can be sold for more than ten taels, plus the other two, there should be a lot of harvest tomorrow, you go up the mountain in the morning Remember to take out the things in advance and put them on the way to the town when we go to town, so that no one will see them."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention."

"With some private money, we can have more confidence no matter what we do in the future, do you understand what I mean?"

"Ah."

"I don't have to distinguish you from the rest of the Yun family. You should understand in your heart how the Yun family treats us. No one cares about us, so we can only seek it ourselves."

"Ah."

"We are a husband and wife, we both prosper and we lose, and I will never let you suffer."

"Ah."

Don't look at Yun Jinghao and it will be um, Luo Jinxiu still discerned the emotional change from the subtle difference in his tone, then silently curled his lips in the dark, closed his eyes, and didn't speak again.

Not long after, he heard the sound of even and regular breathing coming from his ears. While listening carefully, Yun Jinghao stared at the dark roof for a long time before closing his eyes.
