Chapter Eighty-Six: Growing Medicine
Pulling the curtain, Su Xiujin sat on the bench and sighed, as soon as Jin Da Niu put the things away, he poured all the money in the cash box on the table, and the crisp sound of hundreds of copper plates made Su Xiujin feel excited. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It's the first time we've made so much money," Jin Da Niu moved closer to the candle, he grabbed a copper plate, blew it on it, and then put it to his ear, only to hear the vibration of the copper plate's peak.
Su Xiujin raised her sore arm and counted the copper plates one by one, Rao is already counting in her heart, but she just counted them carefully, Jin Da Niu went to boil water, opened the door of the house, and lit dried wormwood on the edge of the corner of the house, so as not to be bitten by mosquitoes at night.
After all the money was strung together, six strings of money were put on the table, more than 650 yuan, excluding the cost, the income of this night was more than 300 yuan. Su Xiujin told Jin Da Niu Ming'er to exchange the money for loose silver, so that she could bring a little.
Su Xiujin rubbed her arms, the water on the stove was about to boil, Jin Da Niu took out a wooden bucket from the house, hot and cold water tested the water temperature before mentioning it, this is not as good as at home, Su Xiujin has this set of dresses on her body, she has not changed it for two or three days, and she can only wipe it with a handkerchief in the house every day, Su Xiujin was just about to enter the house, only to see Jin Da Niu stumbling, looking at her with a twist.
Su Xiujin asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Jin Daniu's face flushed, and he took out an oiled paper bag from his back and handed it to Su Xiujin.
Su Xiujin didn't know why, opened the oil paper bag, and there was a piece of yellow pancreas with a faint fragrance lying inside.
"San'er told me that all the women in the town use this, so I went to the grocery store and bought a piece, and I didn't know what flavor you liked, so I took this osmanthus scented one."
Su Xiujin looked at the pancreas that was no more than the size of a palm, she had seen it once in the grocery store, and the price was thirty yuan a piece, she was not willing to buy it, but she didn't want Jin Da Niu to save this thought.
"Thank you." Su Xiujin said sincerely.
Jin Da Niu grabbed his hair and smiled stupidly: "What's so thankful for this, I'll buy you clothes tomorrow, I always wear this set, others still think I'm abusing my daughter-in-law." ”
Su Xiujin shook her head and said with a smile: "No, I'll go back to the village tomorrow and bring a pullover." ”
Jin Daniu didn't understand and asked, "What are you going back to the village for?" ”
Su Xiujin entered the door and said, "I'll go see if I can grow daylilies in Jinjia Village, and then think about buying a few fields." ”
The business in this town can be busy with Jin Da Niu and San'er, as long as they are slower and settle accounts or something, she will come to see it from time to time, what Su Xiujin has to do now is to start the daylily business.
The next day, Su Xiujin returned to Jinjia Village, and as soon as she entered the house, she saw the fourth aunt chatting with Su Niangzi in the yard, Su Niangzi's eyes were sharp, and she saw Su Xiujin coming back from a distance, and joked with the fourth aunt: "The girl has returned to the door." ”
The fourth aunt took a look, and she complained and was happy in her heart, complaining that Su Xiujin didn't return home for three or four days if she went to the town to take a look, but the happy thing was that the day before yesterday, Su Niangzi said that her daughter was doing well in the town, and Jin Daniu didn't treat her badly.
As soon as Su Xiujin entered the door, she put the things in her hand, went to the wardrobe to get a clean dress, and went to the kitchen to scoop some hot water on the stove.
Wearing sweaty clothes, Rao always feels unclean no matter how many times he takes a shower.
The fourth aunt was busy filling the stove with water, and the girl had to wash her hair after taking a bath, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable.
Su Niangzi looked at the big bags of things on the table, her heart was very sour, seeing that the fourth aunt was busy, thinking that she was also this age, there was no one to talk to, and her mother-in-law was crazy in the early years, if she didn't come here from time to time, I was really afraid that she would be crazy.
"Lady, you are so blessed!" Su Niangzi said, "Jin Niang brought you a lot of things." ”
The fourth aunt looked at the things on the table, a dark purple muslin, I don't know how many times better than the coarse cloth on my body, a cloth bag wrapped some dried fruit snacks, mostly sour plums, this looked at the fourth aunt's eyes were hot, Su Xiujin still remembered that she loved to eat these, and the others were necessary to eat, a few catties of white flour, a piece of fine meat, and even more rare was a bag of millet.
"Come back, come back, why did you bring so many things?" The fourth aunt asked.
Su Xiujin was dressing: "It's all ordinary things, you have also eaten sweet potato multigrain stick noodles for several months, and you will be allowed to eat rice noodles in the future, we can't treat ourselves badly." ”
The fourth aunt said: "I occasionally help people sew something, I have this money myself, and I can buy it." ”
Su Xiujin went out with dirty clothes, her face flushed after taking a shower, and she was delicate.
"How can you afford to buy it, except for the few days when I was at home, I ate a few meals of rice, I see that you eat melons and vegetables, and when I just scooped water, I can see sweet potatoes simmering next to your pot."
The fourth aunt shut up and had to go and pack up these things. Su Xiujin grabbed a handful of dried fruits and stuffed them into Su Niangzi's arms, Su Niangzi hurriedly wrapped her bib around, looking at the dates and sour plums inside, Su Niangzi hurriedly thanked her, cautiously, for fear of dropping one.
"Auntie, I want to ask you something." Su Xiujin took the wooden basin and scattered her hair, her long hair reaching her hips, as smooth as a black waterfall.
"What's the matter? You just say. "Su Niangzi is not polite.
Su Xiujin soaked the black sesame leaves in hot water, and asked casually: "Auntie, do you have to run far to pick yellow flowers and plants these days?" ”
"But no, this daylily is piled up in the east and west, and every morning you have to pick a dustpan, and you have to turn half of the mountain."
Su Xiujin poured water on her hair and blinked: "I'll see if we can plant all these daylilies together, and we won't run to the top of the mountain at that time." ”
Su Niangzi disagreed: "It's not that this kind of going together is not impossible, but a tree on this hill is engraved with a name, they don't know daylily, just think it's a wild flower, let's pick them and don't stop them, if you have to plant a piece and occupy other people's territory, what can you do?" ”
Su Xiujin slowly scrubbed her hair and said slowly: "Then let's buy a few pieces of land!" ”
Su Xiujin thought about it, the four or five taels of silver she saved were all to be exchanged for real land deeds, she bought a piece of land in this Jinjia Village, planted daylilies first, and then expanded her family business piece by piece, and then bought a yard for the fourth aunt in the town, and the maids and servants were waiting, and then rented the fields in the village or asked others to plant them.
When Su Niangzi heard it, she was not surprised, she always thought that Su Xiujin was rich, she did things for other people's families, if she said it well, it was a foil, and if she said it badly, she was also a subordinate.
"Have you figured out which land to buy? I heard that there are a few mountain fields on the hill west of the village that are going to be sold, so let's go and see them. ”
"Yamada?" Su Xiujin didn't understand the meaning.
The next day, after Su Xiujin looked at this mountain field located on the slope of the mountain with dry soil, he was very satisfied.
"Lady of the Jin family, do you think of this field?" Jin Laozhong rubbed his hands and looked at her attentively.
