Chapter 5 Making a Living(Specially added for old book friends)

I am so grateful, I didn't expect that three years later, there are still people who remember Dabao. As soon as Lao Wen posted an advertisement, Xinwen added a lot of popularity, and he was moved to death! Dabao doesn't have many manuscripts, so I specially added a chapter to thank you, don't dislike it.

Although Su Shi called Han Shi to say a little bit of emotion, he still has some sense. Besides, she was really afraid that she would make people laugh at her reputation as delusional. After all, if there is no accident, the people of the village have lived together all their lives, and they are really going to make jokes, but they will make people talk behind their backs for a lifetime.

I want to stop there, and I have some regrets.

Thinking of the surprise at the time, he didn't even ask why the son of that family quit his family, and he had the heart to go to the Han family to ask, but he was afraid that the Han family would think that she was interested in this family, so he enthusiastically made a big fanfare.

I thought about it again and again, and finally pressed it.

Compared with her entanglement, Pei Yan is much easier. Anyway, Pei Mingyuan and the Su family are not the kind of masters who only want money and don't care about the wishes of their children, so there is nothing to worry about in this matter.

What worries her is the next few days of this family. Pei Mingyuan is looking forward to taking charge of the construction team after his injury is healed, so that he can take on some work to earn money to support his family.

Now that this idea has come to naught, the whole person seems a little depressed. After eating, I sat in the sunny place of the courtyard, closed my eyes and basked in the sun, and I could sit motionless for half a day.

It's not a problem to go on like this, he's been sitting for a day yesterday and a morning today.

Pei Yan leaned on the door frame of the hall, looked at Pei Mingyuan, who was sitting with his head bored under the sun, and tilted his head in thought. I wanted to think of a way to make money for him, so as to temporarily relieve the depression in his heart, but after thinking about it for a long time, he shook his head in vain.

She is really unfamiliar with the carpenter's business, and Pei Mingyuan can't make a big move now, and she can't even do things like her neighbors taking advantage of the slack to go up the mountain to dig up the winter bamboo shoots that have not yet come out of the ground in exchange for some scattered silver coins.

Yang Tian breathed a sigh of relief at the warm sun, and was about to move the sewing basket out and finish the half-made baby cotton pants. I saw Wang Dazhuang's family and Hongmei Qingshan's mother and son carrying shovels and shovels on their shoulders, passing by before hitting the door.

"Yan girl, go up the mountain." Hongmei poked her head into the courtyard and called out to her with a smile.

Pei Yan knew that they were going to dig winter bamboo shoots, so she shook her head at them with low interest, "You guys, I have to guard my mother at home." ā€

Hongmei said with a smile, "In the spring of previous years, you ran faster and more diligently up the mountain than me, but this year you were compared to me." ā€

Pei Yan could only smile bitterly in return. God knows, since she calmed down from the shock of the crossing, she didn't want to go around the nearby mountains all the time.

In my memory, on the mountains of Bei'an Town, the products are still very abundant. For Pei Yan, who lives in a time and space where even wild vegetables have to be bought with money, the mountains are full of things that don't need money, which is undoubtedly a huge temptation.

It's a pity......

Pei Yan glared at the smug Hongmei, and waved her hand listlessly, "I'll let you this year, let's compete again next year." ā€

At this time, Pei Mingyuan opened his eyes, glanced at Pei Yan and said, "If you want to go, you can go, I will accompany your mother at home." ā€

Pei Yan looked at him hesitantly.

Although Su Shi is weaker than a woman who gave birth at term, it has now passed seven or eight days. In addition to not being able to leave the house, it is not a big problem to get out of bed and move around.

Pei Mingyuan's legs, if he doesn't walk around for a long time and move around the courtyard on crutches, it will not be a big problem.

While his thoughts were moving, Su's voice came from the house, "Go, go, go up the mountain to play and relax." These days, she knows that she has suffocated her daughter.

Pei Yan weighed it for a long time, but finally couldn't resist the huge temptation to go up the mountain, quickly got a shovel and a basket from the grass hut, followed behind Wang Dazhuang's mother and son, and went east along the path in front of his house.

Her eagerness made Hongmei laugh, and teased her, "Even if you go up the mountain today, you won't be able to dig us." As he spoke, he proudly pointed to Wang Dazhuang's family and her brother Qingshan, who were walking in front. It means that there are three of them, and Pei Yan is only one person.

Although Pei Yan was a little speechless about this kind of meaningless competition between the little daughter's family. But he still smiled and shot back, "Who wants to dig bamboo shoots with you, that thing is heavy and heavy, and I can't find the right place, so I'm too lazy to dig it." ā€

Now the bamboo shoots have not yet germinated, and they are all buried below the ground. For inexperienced people, it is rare to dig a few even if they dig for an afternoon.

Hongmei asked curiously, "Then what are you doing up the mountain?" "At this time, she can't think of anything else to do besides digging bamboo shoots.

"I'm digging bluegrass." This is what Pei Yan has been thinking about for a long time in her heart.

The boundary of Bei'an Town is slightly south, and there are many wild orchids growing on the surrounding hills. However, because of these things, the people of Pingtou are not very good at serving, and most people are too lazy to dig. Even if someone digs it, most of them keep it at home, and few sell it.

Children are more interested in the things they see that can be exchanged for money and can be eaten, and this bluegrass is too lazy to dig, and the other is not recognizable.

And Pei Yan dug up the bluegrass in her memory, and planned to return to her old business.

After all, she has accumulated twenty-eight years in her previous life, and in addition to her skills in serving flowers and trees, she has no skills.

As for whether she can make a few pennies by pointing at it, it is not something she has to consider at the moment. Anyway, as a lover of raising flowers and plants, even if you can't make money, you have to dig it back first to get over your addiction.

And from memory, we can know that on the hill on this side of Bei'an Town, there are mostly Chunlan. Now, if her estimate is correct, the blue arrow should have germinated and will be open in less than a month.

Although I know that the price of Chunlan is cheap, I think that such an orchid with flower arrows can be sold for a few dollars.

As for how to sell it when you dig it home, you will find a way to dig it home.

Anyway, Bei'an Town is not far from Fucheng, so it's a big deal to call Pei Yue to set up a car and take her to Fucheng to try.

Pei Yan, who made up her mind, the mother and son of Wang Dazhuang's house, "That thing should not be eaten or drunk, what are you digging it for?" In the persuasion, after a hard afternoon, I dug up fifteen or sixteen spring orchids with arrows, and Pei Mingyuan and Su Shi, "That thing should not be eaten or drunk, what are you fiddling with it for?" In questioning, he carefully put the bluegrass in the grass hut, covered it with wet straw, and carried the basket to the nearby hill to dig up the humus soil.

When she came back with two baskets of soil on her back, and was about to carry the third basket, Pei Yue, who pretended to go to school, turned around from the bluestone slab bridge.

The setting sun slanted in the west, hitting him, lining his figure in a student's uniform more and more long.

I have to say that Pei Yue, who is dressed as a scholar, has a little less homely atmosphere of a poor house, and a little more indifferent temperament that can be seen from a distance and cannot be blasphemed.

No wonder in this novel, there is always a rich lady who prefers a down-and-out scholar, and this student shirt is really good.

This probably has something to do with the world's preference for talented men.

It seems that no matter who it is, as long as they wear this student clothes, they will have a little more connotation out of thin air.

So he prefers Pei Yan, who has connotation and temperament, and does not need to avoid suspicion and is not afraid of being gossiped about, so he took the opportunity to look at it.

Pei Yue looked a little inexplicable, first looked down at himself and saw that there was nothing wrong with him, then poked his head into the courtyard, and asked her in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Daddy is angry again? ā€

The rough voice, which has not yet completely passed the period of voice change, suddenly destroys the beauty created by the sunset, the distant mountains, the dead trees, the small bridges and the scholar's clothes.

Pei Yan suddenly came back to her senses, shook her head vigorously, and asked him in a low voice, "Where is my brother going today?" ā€

Pei Yue smiled bitterly, "Where can I go?" Originally, I wanted to go to the school to take a turn, take cover, and then go to the town to see if there were any shops recruiting workers. Unexpectedly, he called Mr. Yue to see it, took him to the backyard, and took the school for half a day's homework. ā€

Pei Yan said, "This is not a long-term solution." Originally, Pei Yue took the initiative to drop out of school because of Pei Mingyuan, but now Pei Mingyuan's affairs are completely yellow, and he is not looking for a better livelihood for a while. You can't let him waste all this time and all the good spring sunshine wandering around, right?

"Why don't you go to school?" Pei Yan said in yƬ.

Pei Yue shook his head, and seeing Pei Yan looking at him puzzled, he explained in a low voice, "It's time to be bound up after the New Year." ā€

Pei Yan let out an "oh" and nodded knowingly.

Although Bei'an Town has not reached the exaggerated point of seven mountains, two rivers and one field, there are really not many fields. Take the Pei family as an example, a family of seven only has more than four acres of paddy fields, and there are four or five scattered places. There are also less than two acres of tea plantations. A year's income from grain and tea sales can take care of the family's food and clothing. Pei Yue's expenses for going to school were all earned by Pei Mingyuan's work.

Now......

Pei Yan thought for a moment and said, "If you don't talk to Niangming." Then he said that he planned to sell bluegrass in Fucheng, and then said, "With you by my side, my father and mother can rest assured, otherwise, I will dig it and go home, and I will not be able to sell it." ā€

Pei Yue looked at her sister in surprise.

Pei Yan will be mistaken, "What, do you think this method can't be done?" ā€

Pei Yue shook his head, "No." On the contrary, he felt that the idea was very feasible.

Although he is just a civilian student in a small town, he is also a scholar. For the four good Meilan chrysanthemums in the hearts of readers, it is inevitable that they will have a little more preference.

It's just that I never thought about raising a few plants, not because my family can't afford to raise them, but because I consciously raise flowers and grass is something that only those free and easy literati hermits, or rich and idle sons.

He is a peasant boy who learns to raise flowers and grass, and he doesn't have to make people laugh.

But then again, even if he is a peasant boy, he must also think a little bit about the hearts of so many wealthy families in the city and so many people who are studying. So my sister's idea should be very feasible.

After a little silence, Pei Yue nodded heavily, "Okay, I'll go talk to my mother after dinner." ā€

Pei Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and told him again, "If my mother doesn't agree, you can say that you are just temporarily suspended from school, and when we earn money, it is not too late for you to go to the school again." ā€

The son has not completely cut off the path of taking the official career, and it should be easier for the Su family to accept it.

Pei Yue answered, and quickly went back to the house to change into a dozen clothes and came out, helping Pei Yan to dig in the mountains.

Pei Yan is not very proficient in the cultivation of orchids, but only knows roughly that she needs to use pots with humrid loose soil and good air permeability.

The problem of soil is easy to solve, and for this item, we must turn to Su Shi and Pei Mingyuan.

Although he knew that his daughter was to add an income to the family, Su still didn't want her to toss, "It's okay to say whether you can sell it or not, don't spend that effort and money." ā€

Pei Yan turned to Pei Yue for help.

Pei Yue told Su Shi everything he thought about one by one, and affirmed, "This idea that my sister thinks of will definitely make money." ā€

My son is older and has his own ideas. Under normal circumstances, Su Shi is reluctant to refute his son's face, but at the moment, he is really tight-handed...... When he was in distress, he heard Pei Mingyuan shouting his mother outside.

She was stunned for a moment and motioned to Pei Yan. Pei Yan lifted the curtain and looked outside, and Pei Liu had already entered the courtyard. Zhao Su said silently, "Mama is here." Then he lifted the curtain and went out of the hall.
