Chapter 63: The money is handed over to the public school
Everyone picks mulberry leaves in the mulberry forest in the village, and no one will think about going into the mountains, which is too troublesome.
Lin Changyuan went into the mountains and walked around, and soon found a lot of mulberry trees, although they were all scattered, but they were not far apart.
The next day, he took Meng Shan and a few of them to the mountains, and one of them carried a basket and harvested a lot.
When they came back, someone in the village saw it, and only after they passed did someone say, "Now there are more silkworm breeders in the village, and there are not enough mulberry leaves in the mulberry forest, so the Lin family went into the mountains to pick them." ”
The other person sighed, "Seeing that the Lin family has made money, our family has also raised some, I didn't expect everyone to have this idea, it's good now, I don't know how to feed it, there are few people working in our family, and we have to take care of the fields, how can we have time to go into the mountains?" ”
"Our family also raised some, I didn't expect that thing to be so edible, I'm also worried, or I'll go into the mountains to see, or I can only don't want it, I can't take care of it,"
Siqi and they found a place to pick mulberry leaves in the mountains, and Zijun Zikang would pick a bag with his schoolbag when he came back from school in the afternoon, and he raised them like this, and these silkworms finally did not break the mulberry leaves.
After four sleeps, the silkworms will start eating and drinking, and after seven or eight days of hard work, they are tired.
Lin Changyuan gets up early in the morning, and he will carry a big basket on his back, and go to the mountain to pick a basket of mulberry leaves for them, so that a few children can be more relaxed.
Xuan's also got up early, and said with a smile, "Xianggong, I'll pick it with you, the two of you can be faster, now these silkworms eat a lot, and one basket is not enough." ”
She went to the stove house and talked to Liu, and asked Liu to take care of making breakfast.
Liu responded with a smile, "You go, I'm busy at home." ”
In the summer, the sky dawns early, but even so, the sky is not yet bright, which shows how early they get up.
At this time, when a woman gets married, she has to get up early, and her in-laws don't get up until everything is picked up.
The daughter-in-law should get up early, the two of them are used to it, but Du Shi can't see anyone, and he is still sleeping soundly at this time.
When Lin Changyuan and Xuan's went out, they had already seen someone going to the mulberry forest, and Xuan's whispered, "The mulberry leaves over there are going to be bald, and I can't complain about it." ”
Lin Changyuan said with a smile, "Let's not be afraid of this, just go into the mountains, such a big mountain will never be plucked, and the leaves in the mountains are still fresh." ”
After entering the mountains and finding a place, Xuan tied his hair up, and the two of them threw their hands and feet into the back basket.
She thought about her daughter and couldn't laugh, "Her son is really a little ghost, and she is full of thoughts about making money at a young age, I look fun, but it's also a good thing for a girl to have such a mind, I'm afraid she has no idea." ”
Lin Changyuan smiled and nodded, "Who said it wasn't, I'm happy to see her like this, our five children, all of them are smart, and their son is the one with the fastest brain, Si Yaowen is quieter." ”
Xuanshi said, "Let them be what kind of character they are, let's not force it, just let the child not go the wrong way, Si Yao is quiet, the embroidery work on his hands is good, his son is clever, there are many ghost ideas, Zijun Zikang is sensible, and he can get by by studying, Zichen is still young now, and he can't see anything, but he must be a good child." ”
The husband and wife were picking mulberry leaves while talking about their children, and the more they talked, the happier they became, how could they be so blessed, and the children were so worry-free.
The two back baskets were almost full, and the sky was almost bright, Lin Changyuan saw that the sun was about to rise, and pulled Xuanshi to look, "Look, how beautiful it is, let's go into the mountains and still look at this." ”
Xuanshi smiled and said, "It looks good at this time, but after a while, it will be poisonous and can heat people to death." ”
Lin Changyuan said, "It's good to look at this time." ”
Just finished talking about children, and then looked at the sunrise again, and suddenly felt some emotion in my heart.
Lin Changyuan took Xuan's hand and sighed, "Lady, you have really worked hard to marry me all these years, you have been worrying about me, and I don't know when I will be able to make it easier for you." ”
Xuanshi hurriedly smiled and said, "Xianggong, I didn't lie to you, I haven't felt tired after marrying you all these years, I'm happy, my father and mother treat me very well, our children are also obedient, people are worry-free, you are good to me, what else am I not satisfied with?" We have hope for our days now, and I am happy in my heart, don't talk about this. ”
Lin Changyuan smiled and took her in his arms, "Okay, I know you're happy, I will treat you better in the future, let's live a good life." ”
After that, Lin Changyuan and Xuan's had to carry two baskets of mulberry leaves back for them every morning, which was almost enough, too much to eat was a waste.
However, when the silkworms began to eat a lot of mulberry leaves after Simian, this was not enough, and Meng Shan and the others also got up early and followed Lin Changyuan into the mountain together.
Meng Shan said, "Third Uncle, it's okay to say that it is a few of us who toss these silkworms, and as a result, you are tired and run to the mountains every day." ”
Lin Changyuan said with a smile, "You girl will also say these things, we are a family, don't be so clear, where can I rest assured that you can enter the mountain, I have to take it with me." ”
Meng Shan smiled, "Okay, I see." ”
With the help of Lin Changyuan and Xuan's family, plus Zijun Zikang, they brought a bag of mulberry leaves every time they came back, and later Tiankuo also helped them pick them.
This time, Zilong Zijie also helped together, Zijie couldn't do much, but Zilong still did it, in this way, although it was not easy to find mulberry leaves for silkworm raising this time, it was also raised smoothly.
I still picked more than 50 catties of cocoons and took them to the town to sell, the price was two cents higher than last time, and the market rose.
This time it was sold for nearly three yuan, but a few of them were very happy.
Meng Shan discussed with Siqi and them, "It's not easy for us to raise silkworms this time, thanks to the help of the third uncle and three aunts, it's not good for us to share the money ourselves, it's going to be busy with the farm soon, or take the money to grandma and buy some food, what do you think?" ”
As soon as Meng Shan said this, several other people nodded, and they all felt that it should be like this, this time it was really impossible to raise a few of them alone.
But Siqi thought, this time Erniang bothered to let Zilong Zijie follow them, didn't she just want to share the money? This is good, sell the silver and hand it over directly to the public middle school, Erniang has to gossip.
She didn't want the eldest sister to be said by Erniang, so she reminded her in a whisper, "Eldest sister, let's keep some, Zilong Zijie has been busy for a while without money, and Erniang has to gossip again, and you will feel uncomfortable listening to it then." ”
She doesn't care, she doesn't take Du Shi in her eyes, but Meng Shan is different, those words have to go to her heart.
