Pastoral Valley Fragrance

Chapter 86
Xiao Man also found it incredible, looked at the bunch of money and smiled: "Gu Yu, so that means, we have been working on flails for a month, so there is no problem in building a house or anything!"

Gu Yu chuckled, went to scratch Xiao Man, "Look at you greedy ghost, you still say I'm greedy, you still say I'm greedy!"

Xiao Man was itchy and giggled.Wang carried Xia Zhi into the house and watched the two daughters working for the past two days. Their faces were a little red from the sun, but they were in good spirits. They curled up on the bed and laughed together, and there were a lot of copper coins on the bed.While coaxing Xia Zhi, she said, "Look at your sister, Xia Zhi, she's become obsessed with money again."

Gu Yu came over and pinched Xia Zhi's face, Xia Zhi grinned with his mouth full of two teeth, and his saliva flowed out, very cute.Gu Yu quickly wiped it for him with a handkerchief, "Mother, you're talking about me again, this time it's my sister, saying we don't have to do anything, we make flails every day, one tael a day, 30 taels a month, we're rich!"

Only then did Wang realize, "You mean, we made a tael of silver today!"

Seeing that Mrs. Wang didn't believe it, Xiaoman said, "Look, it's all here."

Gu Yu put these things away together, thinking that Xiaoman's thinking is too simple, this flail is something easy to make, that is, some wood is connected with a leather rope, and others can make it at a glance, in other words, it is The technical content is not high.This time it was able to sell well, entirely because it took the first opportunity, and no one else has what I have. This kind of business will not last long, and it still cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

When Gu Yu shared her thoughts, Wang comforted her and said, "Don't worry about Gu Yu, this is already very good, we have food and shelter, and these emergency money, it will get better day by day."

Xiaoman was right to think about it at this time, so he patted Gu Yu's head, "Yes, we are doing well now, Brother Dalin and his family are suffering even more."

While talking, Gu Yu and Xiao Man strung the money into a string of one hundred and one hundred coins, Xia Zhi's hands kept scratching, drooling and ignoring it, until he caught two coins, and then he was safe.

Seeing his appearance, Gu Yu was very funny, "Mom, the most money-lovers in our family is Xia Zhi!"

After stringing the money, put the minus one back into the jar, then take out three strings of money and hand them to Mrs. Wang: "Mother, this one is for Aunt Wen's family, one for Uncle Chen's, and one for grandma. It’s not a big deal, but it’s also our intention, we can’t let them help us. Then he took out two skewers, “Mom, I’ll leave these to Dad, he’s going out to buy some wine and meat tomorrow, and he’s going to plant rice after threshing.” , I'm too tired to have oil and water in my stomach to hold on. "

Seeing Gu Yu's allocation of strings of money, Wang was also very relieved. Although this little girl looks like a money fanatic, she is just a sensible person. It can be seen from the fact that he is willing to give these strings of money. Besides, Gu Yu was still asking at this time: "We don't have too much, or I really want to divide each family into dozens of taels, as long as our family is a landlord. Is it too little for a bunch? "

Xiao Man said with a smile: "It's your idea to earn the money back. They came to help for a day. If you give too much, I'm afraid they won't accept it. It's better to split it up and give some more next time."

Gu Yu thought it was the same reason.

The next day they still went to the fields, but they didn’t have to wear those strange hats anymore. After working for a long time, they cut all the grains on the field, and the rest were still shaking their hands to thresh the grain. Several people took turns. His hands were already blistered, but he gritted his teeth and suffered without saying a word.And the four women who cut the rice have already moved to another paddy field, so they don't have to worry about the drying yard anymore. When Dazhu Niang was shopping yesterday, she already said that the drying yard at his house is very close to Chen Yongyu's. The family can't use that much for a while, and they can lend it to Gu Yu's family for three or four days, so Gu Yu and the others simply rushed to harvest the rice in the field and dry it in the sun.

After two days of exposure to the sun, the first batch of rice has almost dried out. At this time, it is still spread out on one side of the drying field, but the sun is thicker. The newly threshed millet is very fresh on the other side. Xu Qin’s Staying there with Jiang Shi, drove Wang Shi home to look after the children, while Xiaoman asked Guyu and Xiaohe would not go back, Xiaohe was embroidering there while listening to Xu Qinshi's talk about ancient times, Xiaoman was also there, and Aunt Wen was there Wang was worried about such a group of people, so he went home and boiled a crock of mung bean soup and brought it over.Also carrying a basket of bowls.

Mrs. Wang just took this opportunity to give each of them a string of money to the three adults, but they all refused. Mrs. Jiang also said, "Where did such a good deal come from? I won't do anything in the future. I will go to work every day." With the help of Gu Yu's family, ten days is one tael of silver, so much can be done."

Aunt Wen also said: "That's right, my family Dalin does such a hard job, and it only costs ten Wen a day."

Gu Yu told the truth, "Grandma, Aunt Jiang, Aunt Wen, let me tell you, the things we sold yesterday made a tael of silver, that is, a thousand dollars, a family of one bunch, and our family still made some money." Yeah, it’s not considered wages, this is what we earned from our partnership business, I gave you less, if you don’t want it, you just dislike too little.”

Xu Qinshi slapped her to greet her, but she patted Gu Yu's shoulder lightly with thunder and rain, and scolded with a smile: "You are only too old to know how to say these words. Since Gu Yu respects grandma, I will not be polite. It’s just that you are a villain, don’t regret it, you can ask grandma for it tomorrow, and grandma won’t accept it.” After speaking, seeing Jiang’s and Wen’s hesitate, knowing that they are also good, they have always been helping Gu Yu’s family, They were not disappointed in collecting the money, but Xu Qinshi had his own calculations in his mind, he came and went, and came and went. Since it was Gu Yu's intention to accept it, even if he had to make up for it in the future, he had to use it to buy things and come back. yes.So Xu Qinshi put the money on them together: "Take it, take it, we are all cool people, if you don't accept Gu Yu, you will regret it, let her cry by herself tomorrow!"

A group of people laughed there for a while, Mrs. Wang was thinking about Xia Zhi and Mrs. Xu who stayed at home, so she went back first, but saw Chen Jiangsheng running in a hurry, and saw that the mung bean soup had already hit the ground, and sat down slumped.

Seeing him like that, Mrs. Wang felt a little funny, "Jiang Sheng, go home with your aunt, there are still some at home."

Chen Jiangsheng shook his head, "No, I want to stay here and play with them. When I go back, only that brat Xia Zhi can't speak!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Yu stood up abruptly, and tapped his forehead, "Who are you talking about?!"

The adults were a little funny seeing Gu Yu's strength, but Xiao He moved the bowl in his hand, "Brother Jiang Sheng, I haven't drunk this bowl yet, I'll give you half."

Only then did Chen Jiangsheng smile and talk about things while drinking mung bean soup.

I don't know what funny things they mentioned, Chen Jiangsheng laughed, and asked Gu Yu, Gu Yu was stupefied and didn't know what they were laughing at. He was already thinking about how to improve the flail and the thresher, but he didn't know what Li Dequan would bring out. How is the sale of the flail? If you have some technical content, plan ahead and use it when the late rice is harvested. If you can make a fortune, that would be great.

When Li Dequan returned home in the evening, he talked about the flail. At first, the boss refused, saying that the weird thing could not be sold. Who knew that after hearing what Li Dequan had said, he agreed to sell it in the store for fifty dollars. The price of Wen, sell one, and give the boss eight Wen.

The next few days are still harvesting. Even if Gu Yu’s family’s rice is all harvested, Chen Yongyu’s family’s harvest is almost the same, but there is still a paddy field that is a little far away from Zhuangzi. Chen Yongyu will let everyone rest for a day, so as not to be exhausted. , still waiting for planting rice seedlings, and it happened to be the day of rest, there was heavy rain and strong winds, a group of people stayed at home watching the pouring rain, and they all breathed a sigh of relief, as usual, we are still at Gu Yu's house together for a while While eating, Du Dalin also had no work today, and stayed in the room with the big guys. Li Dequan took advantage of his spare time to make the flail while he still had things. .

The next day when the weather cleared, a group of people went to work in Chen Yongyu's field. The rice had been blown down in the paddy field by the strong wind.In the second half of the day, a guest came to the house. It turned out that the owner of the grocery store asked him to bring the money he had sold for the flails. He also asked Li Dequan to make some flails quickly. Make more to sell.

The whole family rejoiced again.

When Chen Yongyu learned that Gu Yu had promised to borrow two bags of grain for Aunt Wen, she praised Gu Yu and patted her chest to assure her, saying that her family still had grain from previous years. There is not enough to eat, he will take care of the rest, it doesn't matter when, besides, there are many people working and it is lively, so let's just form a partnership in the future.Aunt Wen was worrying about plowing the land, so she was very grateful to hear that.

At dinner, everyone was still immersed in the joy of the harvest, but they saw Dalin returning dejectedly. After asking, they found out that the rice in the landlord's house was blown down a lot by the wind, and when a group of people mowed it up It took a lot of effort, and the progress naturally slowed down a lot, and the landowners didn't ask any questions. Seeing that a few people harvested too little land a day, they said that they would deduct their wages.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yu became annoyed, "This landlord really has no eyesight, he only thinks about his own family affairs, Brother Da Lin, don't go to his house to work in the future, tell everyone not to go, when the time comes, he will help you The ones in the field will sprout if they can’t be harvested, let him graze!”

The whole family was also filled with righteous indignation and persuaded Dalin.
