Chapter 175: Intended

The Xu family was not displeased or anything, the two families proposed to repay the favor before, and after that, they proposed to let Zijun go to the Huang family to help.

Until now, the Huang family still let Zijun eat at their house, and now this year is afraid that there will be a rhythm of disaster, when every household is in short supply of food, there is one less person in the family to eat, and there is an extra mouthful of food, which can be saved and eaten later, and it is not a longer time to eat.

The Huang family has done this as an in-laws, what else can be said about this.

Originally, after Zijun ate food at Huang's house for a day, Old Man Xu and Xu Yushi instructed Zijun not to let her eat at Huang's house in the future and let her come back to eat.

But without exception, whenever Zijun wanted to go home for dinner, he prepared the Huang family to persuade him for various reasons.

When the Xu family saw this, they sighed helplessly and went with him.

Zijun is very diligent, she gets up early every day, first finishes the work at home, and then goes to Huang's house, and when she comes back at night, she has to help the family clean up.

"Grandpa, grandma, father, mother, today the Huang family went to the county to sell lanterns, and the daughter also wanted to go, I don't know if it is okay." Zijun asked.

"If you want to go, you can go! Grandma will give you some money, and when the time comes, buy some food. Xu Yushi saw that Zijun had an expression on his face that he wanted to go to the county, and Xu Yushi also said that he would not refuse.

"Grandma, no need, I'll just watch and play." Xu Zijun got Xu Yu's words, and ran to Huang's house, waving his hand to signal her not to have money.

Moreover, Zijun also knew that she didn't have any money at home, and she had to save it.

The second, third, fourth, second and third girls in the family, after seeing that their second sister could go to the county to play, they all looked at each other with envy.

.........。

"Dad, today our family sells lanterns to make money, this year we also buy a donkey cart, the province is always renting a donkey cart, it costs money, if we buy a donkey cart, you can go to the town to pick up the fourth brother and the seventh brother in addition to saving time and effort, let's go to the county to do some business or something, isn't it more convenient?" On the way to the county seat, Huang Yiyun talked to Huang Congjiang without a ride.

"This donkey cart isn't cheap!" Huang Congjiang also asked with some interest.

As the eldest sister said, after having a donkey cart at home, it is convenient to do anything, saving time and effort.

"I've inquired before, if you buy a donkey and build a car, I'm afraid it will cost fifteen taels of silver." Huang Yiyun replied.

"Isn't it cheap? But it's okay to buy a donkey, according to my father, our family buys a cow, which is more cost-effective than a donkey, and it is also better for our family.

Not to mention the cow's hard work, the work in the field at home can be done, and we can also drive the ox cart to the town and county, but the speed is slower than the donkey cart.

In addition to the cow's endurance and labor, there are many things to carry, and the food is not fine, as long as there are some dry straw, it can be fed. After Huang Congjiang said about the ox, the more he talked, the more excited he became, and he couldn't wait to buy an ox cart and get down immediately.

It's just that Huang Congjiang thought that this year's weather, after the disaster, the matter of buying an ox cart would have to be slowed down.

"After the disaster this year, the money we earned was either saved or bought for food, or for backup, and we should talk about the matter of buying ox carts slowly." After Huang Congjiang thought of this, he suddenly said.

"Dad, our family saved a lot of food before, and after that, Grandma gave you silver money, and went to the town to take the opportunity to buy a lot of black noodles and store them for our family to eat in the disaster year.

Dad, now you estimate that our family eats two meals and eats seven points full, and after the grain at home and a lot of wild vegetables picked in the early spring of this year are dried, even if our family does not harvest the sweet potatoes and potatoes planted in the dry land and paddy fields this year, the grain stored by our family can be enough for our family to eat for a long time. Huang Yiyun didn't know what to think of, and hurriedly asked.

"Guess?" Huang Congjiang smiled at Huang Yiyun.

"I don't want to guess, it's too much brain-draining."

"The eldest sister and your grandmother had the foresight before, and bought more than 3,000 catties of black noodles for the least amount of silver money and stored them, just these black noodles, our family can barely eat them for two years.

In addition, our family harvested rice, wheat, sweet potatoes and potatoes last year, as well as the rice planted together with the village chief's family and sent them to our family.

If there is no harvest in the fields this year, our family can also spend more than three years safely, without worrying about no food to eat, not to mention that this year, our family is all planted sweet potatoes and potatoes, these two objects are drought tolerant, not to mention the harvest, it is impossible not to harvest the grain.

Our family harvested sweet potatoes and potatoes from a few acres of land, and our family did not have to pay taxes, and these grains were enough for our family to eat for more than a year. After Huang Congjiang said about the grain stored at home, Huang Congjiang said with a smug look on his face.

Fortunately, I listened to my mother's words before and took the opportunity to buy a lot of grain and store it.

"So much. Before, our family bought it at the previous price, but if we get rid of it now, the grain will be sold, and our family will make a lot of money. Huang Yiyun also said with some surprise.

"Dad, you said, if some families in our village can't harvest the grain this year, and the family has no food to eat, will someone sell their fields in exchange for food?"

"Big sister, you want to ........"

"That's what Daddy thought!" Huang Yiyun also said with a smile.

"That's not good! Isn't this taking advantage of the fire? Huang Yiyun frowned slightly.

"Dad, if someone really comes to this point, let's barter and give food, so that they can live without starvation, this is considered that we have helped them, starving to death, it is better than living. Dad, you said yes. Huang Yiyun explained.

Of course, Huang Yiyun also has a plan in his heart, he can make his dream come true again, and dream about what is about to happen.

Huang Yiyun thought in his heart, hoping that he could dream that this disaster would end soon, before the disaster ended, if the family left such food, he could take the opportunity to sell it all, exchange it for silver, and make a lot of money.

Huang Yiyun was thinking in his heart, but Huang Congjiang was thinking about the words of the eldest sister before, and along the way, he rushed to the county in an unaware time.

Today, the Huang family got up early, and it was also early when they arrived at the county seat, at this time, there are still a lot of people in the county, but compared to this time in previous years, there are much fewer.
