The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 68: Eyes on money

Wang looked at everyone, and finally her eyes fell on Gu Huayu, and said with a smile: "What, this fragrance does smell good, it smells good. But it has to be sold, right? "

 Gu Chengjuan couldn't see Wang Xiu'e's hypocrisy, and said impatiently: "Second sister-in-law, just say it if you have anything to say, don't go around in circles, you are not tired, I am so tired."

Wang Xiu'e was robbed by Gu Chengjuan, and she also revealed her thoughts, and she was a little embarrassed.

But it’s not easy to blame my sister-in-law in front of her mother-in-law. I hate Gu Chengjuan so much that my teeth itch, and there is still an embarrassed smile on her face.

"Xiaojuan's words are a bit unpleasant. The whole family is sitting and talking happily, what can I say?

I just want to ask Xiaoyu what the algorithm is when we go to pick flowers.

 A few days ago, our family hired someone to work, and we were given thirty cash a day. Right? "

When Mrs. Wang mentioned silver, Gu Chengjuan stood up with anger and argued with her: "You..."

Gu Huayu hurriedly grabbed Gu Chengjuan.

Gu Chengjuan turned to look at Gu Huayu, who shook her head at her and said, "Second sister, sit down first."

"She..." Gu Chengjuan still wanted to speak, but when she saw Gu Huayu's eyes darkening, she stopped talking, glared at Wang Xiu'e, kicked off the bench with her foot, and sat down angrily.

Gu Huayu looked at Wang Xiu'e and said, "Second Sister-in-law's suggestion is very good. Since I plan to do business in fragrant dew, I should act according to the rules of business.

 It’s a business, it’s about cost and profit. The purchase of raw materials is part of the cost, so naturally I won’t take it for free. "

"Xiaoyu..." Fang quickly shouted when she heard that Gu Huayu wanted to pay money.

Gu Huayu smiled at Fang, waved her hand and said, "Second aunt, please wait until I finish speaking."

Fang had no choice but to shut up.

Gu Huayu continued: "So, I spend money to collect flowers. For jasmine flowers, I pay forty cents per catty.

As for how much the rest cost per pound, let me think about it. I will make a list later.

I plan to spread the news, and anyone in the village who is willing to make money can do it.

Of course, I am very particular about receiving flowers.

　The flowers should be clean and of good color. You can't mix flower branches, flowers, leaves, dead flowers, etc. in it. I won't accept flowers like that. "

Wang Xiu'e was very happy when she heard the price was forty cents per catty. She nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, I'll go right away. In addition to jasmine, do you want other flowers?"

Gu Chengjuan glanced at Mr. Wang with disgust and muttered: "It's money that makes money!"

Wang Xiu'e pretended not to hear and waited for Gu Huayu's reply with a smile.

Gu Huayu nodded and said calmly, "Pick all the ones you want and keep them separately. Don't mix them together."

"Okay, I know." Wang Xiu nodded in agreement, got up and walked out.

 Gu Chengjuan pouted at Wang's back, turned to Gu Huayu and said, "Xiaoyu, you only care about money, why do you care about her?"

Gu Huayu said: "Since we are doing business, we must follow the rules. Brothers should also settle accounts clearly, so that they can last long."

Gu Chengjuan curled her lips and said, "I can't see her face like this."

Mrs. Qin raised her hand and gave Gu Chengjuan a "bursting chestnut" and said with a straight face: "You girl, you have lived in vain for one more year than Xiaoyu, can't you be as sensible as Xiaoyu?"

Gu Chengjuan raised her hands to cover her head and looked at Qin with aggrieved eyes. "Auntie..."

Qin raised her hand again and said, "What? Are you still wronged? You don't know why you were beaten?"

Gu Chengjuan covered her head and instinctively ducked back, defending: "I'm not wronged."

Wan Shi smiled and put her arms around Gu Chengjuan's shoulders and said, "You girl, you didn't eat this "explosion chestnut" unjustly, but you need to have a long memory.

Xiu'e is your sister-in-law, but she is bad in all kinds of ways. How can you, your sister-in-law, talk too much?

What's more, Xiaoyu is right, there are certain things to pay attention to when doing business.

Your grandfather often said that everything will thrive when a family is harmonious. If a family wants to be harmonious, they must tolerate each other. Do you understand?

Our family has ten or twenty people eating from the same pot. If no one can bear to give in, should we continue to live this day? "

Fang Shi glanced at Gu Chengjuan and said angrily: "This girl only grows taller when she eats, but she doesn't develop a brain. She is more than ten years old, and she doesn't understand anything. She is so worried!"

Guan said with a smile: "Second aunt, don't be upset. Our Xiaojuan is a straightforward person and is already very sensible. Xiaojuan, let's go and pick flowers."

Guan gave some advice and pulled Gu Chengjuan away.

When Guan and Gu Chengjuan left, Qin turned to Fang and said, "Okay, don't be angry. The child needs to be taught slowly. Let's go and pick flowers."

Mrs. Fang sighed and said, "I know this girl is careless. Everyone at home protects her. If she gets married in the future, she will suffer a loss sooner or later."

Mrs. Qin turned around and picked up the basket, "Xiaojuan is more straightforward, but she is not a fool who will be flattened or rounded by others. In this aspect, I think she is much better than Xiaojiao. Let's go, let's go back early."

When Gu Chengjiao heard Qin talking about herself, she was afraid that the flames of war would be drawn to her, so she lowered her head and tried to reduce her sense of presence. It was not until Qin and Fang left the house that she breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Wanshi squeezed Gu Chengjiao's hand and said, "Don't take it personally."

Gu Chengjiao smiled and said, "Thank you, third aunt, I'm fine."

After speaking, Gu Chengjiao looked at Gu Huayu and said, "Xiaoyu, I too..."

Gu Huayu glanced at Gu Chengjiao with a hint of warning in her eyes, and Gu Chengjiao immediately stopped talking.

Wanshi saw the interaction between the two and suddenly found that Xiaoyu's prestige in the family was getting higher and higher.

 Brothers and sisters are a bit submissive to her, and even the care-taking Wang family tries to please her in every way.

This child grew up overnight.

Wanshi patted Gu Chengjiao's hand and said, "Xiaojiao, be obedient. Your body is weak. It's best to rest at home. Taking good care of yourself is the important thing."

"Thank you, third aunt." Gu Chengjiao looked at Gu Huayu, bowed towards Wanshi and replied.

Wanshi looked at Gu Huayu and asked worriedly: "Xiaoyu, can this business really be possible? Is the flower costing 40 cents a pound a bit expensive?

If the fragrant dew cannot be sold, then you will have to pay a lot of money.

 How about, don’t let the news out yet, let’s try it first, and if it doesn’t sell, let’s stop doing it, okay? "

Gu Chengjiao was also worried about this and advised: "Xiaoyu, the third aunt is right. Let's try it first. If it sells well, we will make it in large quantities, okay?"

Gu Huayu didn't want Wan to worry about her, so she nodded in agreement, "Okay, listen to grandma."

In the following days, when the Gu family went to work in the fields, they would always pick some flowers and come back, and Gu Huayu would make fragrant dew from them.

 In the blink of an eye, May comes and the busy farming season is finally over.

The Gu family's new house has been under construction, and the men are helping to build the new house. Qin and Fang are helping in the kitchen, while Guan and Wang still go to the mountains to pick flowers.

“Third Aunt, we have a guest at home.” Gu Chengjiao shouted in the yard.

Wanshi put down what she was doing, got up and walked out.

Gu Huayu was arranging flowers on the steps. She turned around and saw Shopkeeper Huang and Fugui standing at the entrance of the courtyard. She stood up and went over to greet them.

When Shopkeeper Huang saw Mr. Wan coming out, he bowed his hands and said, "My brothers and sisters are fine. It's a bit presumptuous to come to the door without handing over the notice."

Wan recognized Shopkeeper Huang and hurriedly returned the greeting, saying warmly: "Brother Huang is here. Brother Huang is a nobleman of the Gu family. Please come to the house quickly."

Gu Huayu stepped forward to greet him and said, "Hello, Uncle Huang!"

Shopkeeper Huang bowed his hands and said, "Miss Xiaoyu!"

Wanshi politely let shopkeeper Huang enter the room, turned around and said, "Xiaoyu, hurry up and call your father back."

Gu Chengjiao turned around and went to the new house, "I'll go, Xiaoyu will be at home to help greet the guests."

Mrs. Wan led shopkeeper Huang into the main room. As soon as she sat down, Gu Chengjuan ran in panting, "Xiaoyu, Xiaohua was taken back by the Zhang family. Zhang Wu was chasing Xiaohua all over the courtyard with a stick."

Wan's eyes looked back and forth between Gu Chengjuan and Gu Huayu, and asked: "Xiaoyu, do you know about Zhang Xiaohua running away from home?"

Gu Chengjuan realized that she had been rash and stuck out her tongue apologetically at Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu did not dare to look directly at Wan Shi, she looked down at her toes and explained: "Mom, don't be angry, what about that? I went to pick flowers with my second sister that day, and met Zhang Xiaohua who had escaped from Liujiakan..."

Gu Chengjuan echoed: "Third aunt, Xiaohua had a high fever that day and looked so pitiful, so we helped her."

Wan Shi pointed at Gu Chengjuan and Gu Huayu, and said helplessly: "You guys! Alas, the Zhang family is so stingy..."

“Auntie, Xiaohua is so pitiful, let’s go help her.” Gu Huayu looked up at Wanshi and begged.

　　"How to help? How can outsiders interfere when someone else is disciplining their daughter?"

Furthermore, when did that rogue Zhang Wu become reasonable?

Every time he beat Xiaohua, the more people tried to persuade him, the crazier he became, and the more deadly he hit him, beating Xiaohua to death. "Wanshi said in embarrassment.

"What should we do? Let him beat Xiaohua to death? No, I have to go and have a look." Gu Huayu walked out.

Seeing Gu Huayu walking out, Mrs. Wan hurriedly shouted, "Xiaoyu..."

Gu Huayu kept walking, turned around and said to Wanshi: "Don't worry, Mom, I know what's going on."

"You kid, where are you going in such a hurry?" Gu Huayu bumped into Gu Dechang who came in, and Gu Dechang hurriedly stretched out his hand to support her.

Gu Huayu stood firm and said hurriedly to Gu Dechang, "Go and help!"

 After saying that, Gu Huayu crossed Gu Dechang and went to Zhang's house with Gu Chengjuan.

Gu Dechang looked at Wanshi blankly, "How can Xiaoyu save his life?"

Wanshi withdrew his eyes from Gu Huayu's back and briefly told Gu Dechang the whole story.

At the end, Mrs. Wan said worriedly: "Who outsider can get involved in the affairs of the Zhang family? Xiaoyu, she..."

After hearing this, Gu Dechang said with relief: "It's okay, Xiaoyu knows the seriousness, let her go and take a look,"

Gu Dechang bowed his hands towards shopkeeper Huang and said, "Hello, Brother Huang. The child is young and acts recklessly, which makes Brother Huang laugh."

Shopkeeper Huang smiled and returned the favor, "Hey, Mr. Xiaoyu taught Miss Xiaoyu very well. It's a good thing that Xiaoyu is willing to help others!"

Gu Huayu and Gu Chengjuan rushed to Zhang's house. On the way, Gu Huayu said: "Second sister, we will act according to the situation later and find a way to rescue Xiaohua."

 “What’s the solution?” Gu Chengjuan asked.

 Gu Huayu shook her head, "I haven't thought about it yet, so I will act according to the opportunity. At worst, I will buy Zhang Xiaohua."

Gu Chengjuan stared in shock, "Buy it?"

Gu Huayu reached out and pulled Gu Chengjuan who had stopped, "Let's go quickly. If you go late, Xiaohua may be beaten to death."

"Xiaoyu, are you telling the truth? I bought Xiaohua, but our family..." Gu Chengjuan was pulled forward by Gu Huayu and asked with some joy and some worry.

Gu Huayu turned to look at Gu Chengjuan, "I know what the second sister is worried about. Second sister, don't worry, I have an idea."

 “Huh? What’s your idea?” Gu Chengjuan asked doubtfully.

"I'll tell you more about this later. For a while, the second sister just needs to cooperate with me and act according to my eyes." Gu Huayu explained.

 “Okay!” Gu Chengjuan nodded in agreement.

 When the two came to Zhang's house, there were many people outside Zhang's house.

“You little whore, if you dare to steal things from home, I’ll see if I can’t beat you to death.” Zhang Wu’s cursing sound came from the courtyard.

Gu Huayu pulled Gu Chengjuan and squeezed in front of the crowd. She saw Zhang Wu raising a wooden stick and swiping it at Zhang Xiaohua.

Gu Huayu flicked the stone in her hand at Zhang Wu's wrist. Zhang Wu let go in pain, and the stick fell from his hand to the ground.

Zhang Wu held his wrist, turned to look at the crowd, and cursed: "Which grandson dares to hit me with stones? If you have the ability, stand up to me."

Everyone, you look at me and I look at you. I also want to know who threw the stone.

Gu Huayu followed and looked around, "Second sister, someone used a hidden weapon against Zhang Wu?"

Gu Chengjuan said: "It seems that he deserves it."

Gu Chengjuan glared at Zhang Wu and gritted her teeth to add something.

Zhang Wulin yelled at the crowd for a while, but when no one paid attention to him, he picked up the stick on the ground and walked towards Zhang Xiaohua not far away, cursing, wanting to spread his embarrassment and resentment on Zhang Xiaohua.

Gu Chengjuan looked at Zhang Xiaohua worriedly, and held Gu Huayu's arm tightly, "Xiaoyu, what should I do? He wants to beat Xiaohua again."

Gu Huayu lowered her eyes and looked at Gu Chengjuan's hand. She shook her head helplessly and moved a step to the side to hide behind a woman. The stone in her left hand flew out from behind the woman and hit Zhang Wu's knees steadily.

Zhang Wu then knelt on the ground, hugged his knees and screamed with a pale face.

 After Gu Huayu threw the stone, she quickly moved to the previous position.

Everyone looked at Zhang Wu who was kneeling on the ground in surprise. Gu Huayu, with a shocked expression, sighed along with everyone.

“Xiaoyu, God has opened his eyes, Zhang Wu has been punished.” Gu Chengjuan said excitedly.

Zhang Wu endured the pain and stood up, looked at the crowd and cursed: "Fuck you, who the heck is going to beat me? Stand up with me. You f*ck, you have the ability to beat me, but don't have the guts to stand up? You **** What kind of hero is a bastard?"

Zhang Wu spoke, but everyone shut up and watched the fun, and no one said anything.

Gu Huayu didn't bother to quarrel with others and allowed Zhang Wu to scold him.

"Xiaoyu, Xiaohua is lying motionless. Is she dead?" Gu Chengjuan tugged on Gu Huayu's sleeve and whispered.

Gu Huayu glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and saw the rise and fall of her chest. She comforted in a low voice: "It's okay, he is alive."

"Oh!" Gu Chengjuan responded to Gu Huayu, her eyes still falling on Zhang Xiaohua, leaning towards Gu Huayu, and asked in a low voice. "Xiaoyu, what should we do next?"
