When I got home, the star fruit still handed over the money left over from the purchase to my grandmother, and explained again why she was missing five taels of silver.

"Grandma Pei, this child has a good heart, and we said on the way that if we meet, we will also help the two sisters." Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu always sent the star fruit home first, and divided the silver she deserved before leaving.

"Grandma, I told Brother Zhang that I would go to the town in two days to see Sister Yu'er and Sister Yan'er, and when we build a new house, if they don't have a place to go, can we take them home?" Star fruit looked at grandma with a pair of sparkling eyes.

She knew that her grandmother was very kind, and she took in Pei Yifan when she was so difficult at home, and now, she will definitely not ignore the Yu'er sisters.

"When you go to town in two days, grandma will go too, and let's go see the two sisters together." Grandma thought for a moment and replied with star fruit.

"Okay!" Carambola was very happy, remembering that she had long wanted to take her grandmother and Pei Yifan to the town to make two clothes, but she had been busy making money, so she delayed it, and this time she could take them to take a look.

I also thought that Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu would have to go to the town before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and if they also brought children, a carriage might not be enough.

"Auntie, auntie, my grandmother and I will go to the town the day after tomorrow, or when we come back, talk to Brother Zhang, please Brother Qingcang send an extra car, and you will also take your brothers, sisters, brothers and sisters to the town for a walk."

"That's a good idea!" Aunt Lu immediately said, and felt that something was not good. "It's just, Momoko, isn't this too much trouble?"

"It should be fine." Star fruit thought about it and deliberately hesitated. She knew that the kite would say yes, but she was too sure. It will make grandma and aunts wonder. "Let's talk about it! Two cars should be fine, more is not necessarily. By then, anyway, my grandmother and brother have already been there, and you two will also sit down. ”

"Even if people are willing to send more, we can't use it. It's too flamboyant. "Aunt Lu is thoughtful, and what has come to mind." When the time comes, let Uncle Lu Bo Liu go with you to see if there are any men to do, otherwise when the time comes, it will only be us women who make money and build a new house, and they will all be embarrassed to live. ”

Aunt Lu's words, although she said it in a joking tone, also provoked Aunt Liu hahadaxiao. Star fruit was in an instant. Lady Lu was impressed. Don't look at Aunt Lu is just a woman in a mountain village, and she is illiterate, but this EQ is still quite high.

Although in another space, star fruit has grown to the age of twenty-four and has not been in a serious relationship once, but there are still many friends of the opposite sex. I don't know if it's because her personality is a little bit of a child, and a few boys who originally wanted to chase her were also made. Zuihou has become her buddies, but her best friends, classmates, and colleagues. became the girlfriend of those buddies.

Because both parties are her acquaintances and friends, she has heard a lot of bits and pieces of love and married life. Although there are many reasons for conflicts and awkwardness, many of the girls around her are very self-conscious. Not knowing to save face for your boyfriend in public or in front of other people is also one of them.

There is also a cousin of star fruit, with superior family conditions, and she is more capable and has a successful career. Because he was too strong at home, the marriage had to come to an end.

Of course, the divorce is not entirely to blame for the cousin's being too good, the ex-cousin-in-law has no ability, but he has some small belly chicken intestines, which is the real reason. But it can also be seen that as long as a man has a little self-esteem, he doesn't like to let a woman keep him. Except, of course, for the little white face of the profession.

In fact, some time ago, star fruit also thought about this, but the men in the village went down to the mountains every day, except for the little money they didn't earn, they were not idle, and the daily food and vegetables at home were all earned by their hard work. And star fruit really can't think of what men can do, anyway, they will definitely not do those things of embroidery, beating, and needlework.

But since Aunt Lu has already said this idea, star fruit has to help think about it, what is the best way. If you want the men in the village to make money, you really have to think of a comprehensive idea.

As soon as Aunt Lu's words came out, grandma and Aunt Liu also fell into deep thought. They all feel that this is very necessary, not to make money, but to protect the face of the men as the head of the family, and to let them do other things besides farming and growing food, even if the income is not much, they will not feel awkward to rely on women to build a new house.

Carambola's thoughts drifted to the open spaces in the village.

There are still three large open spaces in this village.

One piece is the courtyard used for playing in the middle of Aunt Liu and Aunt Liu's house, which has formed a habit over the years, of course it can't be moved.

The other is behind my own house, grandma's small courtyard was built slightly to the south, on a low cliff head, only grandma's family around, the door of the yard faces west, the south side is planted with vegetables, the north side is barren grass and stones, there is only a small road to go.

There is another piece, which is behind Lao Xia's house, on the edge of the pond.

Star fruit originally thought that in the future, I would discuss with the village chief and a few old grandfathers to build the school by the pond, where there are mountains and rivers, broaden your horizons, although there is an accident of a big girl falling into the water, it may be a little more worrying, but it is good for the children.

When building a house by yourself, you can pick up the stones and weeds behind you, and build the house more spacious and the yard larger. If you don't clean up the place and just build it on the original site, it's enough, but the yard will be a little smaller.

But now, star fruit has a new idea. Since it is more necessary to let the men in the village make money than building a school and a house, the pond and vacant land can be used to grow vegetables and raise fish, and you can also negotiate with the restaurants or fish sellers in the town to give them a low price in batches.

It's just that the village is too far away, and this traffic is also a problem, unless, who has their own carriage.

"Grandma, auntie, auntie." Thinking of this, star fruit suddenly remembered a very practical question. "Weishenme Lao Xia's family only has ox carts, but no horse-drawn carts?"

Grandma and Aunt Lu were thinking about what the men were doing, and they didn't want the star fruit to suddenly ask such an inconsequential question, so they didn't slow down and took a moment before answering.

"It turns out that their family is also a carriage, because the carriage runs faster than the ox cart, the kid of the old Xia family is not honest when he sits on it, and he has to drive the carriage that year, and it fell from it, and their family changed the ox cart." Grandma replied.

"Oh, that means horses can be raised in this village, too?" Carambola asked again.

Aunt Lu's eyes lit up.

"Momoko, you mean, buy a few horses and let the men of the village keep them?"

"No, auntie, I think that if we want our uncles to do something, we can't always use other people's carriages! Besides, other people's carriages can pull people, but if you want to pull goods, people may not be willing. ”

"Peach, do you have any good ideas, tell your aunt." Aunt Liu spoke. "Actually, you Aunt Lu's concerns, I also have them, although your Uncle Liu doesn't like to be silent on weekdays, he also has an idea, I'm really afraid that we will make more money, but he doesn't have anything to do, which makes him feel awkward."

"I'm just thinking about it, even if I do it, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until next spring." As she spoke, she told her thoughts about the land in the pond, but she didn't say that she had moved that place to build a school, after all, those were just unfinished jihua, so don't talk about it.

As for the school, you can find another place.

Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu listened to the idea of star fruit, were silent for a moment, and felt that it was feasible. That place is currently the largest and most flat land in the village, and there is still some distance from the village, even if you build a shed next to the vegetable planting to raise two horses, it will not affect everyone's rest, and then build a simple house, let the men of the village take turns watching at night.

"He Aunt Liu, according to me, although this idea was conceived by us in consultation with Peaches, it can't be said too obviously, otherwise even if the men think this idea is good, they will make a disdainful look, you see if there is any good way, let them go on the road little by little, and I think it is best if they come up with it themselves."

Carambola smiled secretly, I didn't see it, this aunt not only has a very high EQ, but also a low IQ! Anyway, she just came up with such a small idea, how to implement it, she doesn't want to participate anymore, after all, she is just a little girl, and she has more than enough heart but not enough power.

In fact, she just wanted to improve the life of her family, and now, it has gradually evolved into a major event for the whole village, which she didn't expect at first.

"I'll leave this matter to me. You know that my family is also a boring person, and I will definitely let him give birth to this idea. Aunt Liu thought about it and said with a smile, looking full of confidence.

"It's getting late, and it's time for us to go home and cook." Aunt Lu asked Aunt Liu to get up and say goodbye. "I also have to send things to other families. It seems that this penny will have to be tomorrow, and every time I go to town, everyone is looking forward to it! I also have to tell those sisters, don't make two dollars for yourself, just show the face of the master, otherwise this good thing will become a bad thing. ”

"You are young, and you think much more thoughtfully than my wife." Grandma was talking and laughing as she sent Aunt Lu and Aunt Liu out.

Star fruit and Pei Yifan also followed out of the door, turned around and began to choose vegetables, grandma had already made the meal, because she was worried that star fruit would be tired from a day in town, grandma did not use star fruit to stir-fry, but went to cut the meat herself, fried a celery sliced meat, and fried a shredded eggplant.

After eating, Pei Yifan did the housework he was used to as usual, washing the dishes, while the star fruit sat aside, looking at the gradually darkening sky, smelling the fresh air of the mountain country, and feeling very comfortable. (To be continued......)
