Chapter 35 Thinking about livelihood
He's funeral was simply handled, and she and Liu Chenglin were buried together, living and dying together, which can be regarded as getting what she wanted.
Five brothers and sisters, gloomy and gloomy, sat in a row on the steps in front of the door.
"Eldest sister, second brother, what are we going to do in the future?" Liu Yuanzhi asked anxiously, he is eight years old, he has been reading and reading with the He family since he was a child, compared to children of the same age, but he seems more mature and stable, and now after this incident, he looks more calm, at least not like the naughty and mischievous like ordinary children, and he is very worried about the future of the family.
Suddenly there were no adults in the family, only their five children, and everyone couldn't help but feel panic in their hearts at this time.
The eldest Liu Paner, who is only thirteen years old, was asked about it, and couldn't help but feel at a loss in her heart, she didn't know what to do.
"Don't worry, the eldest sister will take care of you." Liu Pan'er said softly.
Her temperament is as gentle as He's, but she also has a trace of Liu Chenglin's strength, thinking about her mother's words to let her take care of her younger brothers and sisters before she died, and then looking at a few children, they all looked at her with hopeful eyes, and their hearts were uncomfortable and soft.
"Eldest sister, how are we going to make money in the future?" Du Danshen asked.
In the past, Liu Chenglin hunted, He embroidered some purses to sell, and the silver money earned was enough for the family to spend, and some could be saved.
But with such a large family, it is estimated that there is not much that can be saved, and besides, they can't sit back and eat, so they have to think of making some money to live.
As soon as she said this, several people were stunned, they hadn't thought about it so long-term, and besides, they weren't very old, except for Liu Yuanshan who went into the mountains to hunt prey for money, which was considered to have earned money in person, the rest of the people had not been able to earn a penny for their families.
Liu Paner learned embroidery from He since she was a child, but she is still young, and the embroidery she makes is still average, and she has never exchanged it for money, and she is busy with housework every day, taking care of her younger siblings, and she doesn't have so much time to do needlework.
"I will do more embroidery in the future and sell it in the shop, so that I can make some money." It's just that she has no confidence in what she said, and He didn't make much money making purses before, and she didn't know if her craftsmanship would succeed, so she was quite worried for a while.
"I can go into the mountains to hunt, my father taught me this skill, but it just allows me to feed my family." Liu Yuanshan said.
"Second brother!" The three little hearts all lifted up and called at the same time.
"Brother Shan, don't go into the mountain again in the near future." Liu Pan'er hurriedly said, what happened to her, she was really afraid, if Brother Shan was also in danger......
Liu Yuanshan saw that they all seemed to be opposed, but he didn't say anything more, the mountains were dangerous, he always knew about it, but he didn't expect that even Daddy could fold it in, if it weren't for Wu Shuzi...... Thinking of this, I was so angry and hateful, and then thanks to the Wu family who went into the mountains to find their father and son, and the mother was soft-hearted, and they coaxed this matter to be exposed!
"There is still some surplus food at home, let's save some, dig some wild vegetables every day and come back to eat, and I will embroider the purse and sell it for money, and I can always support it for a while." Liu Paner said, but the more she talked, the more she lost confidence.
Mainly because I felt that I didn't even make much money from He Shi doing embroidery before, she hadn't learned this skill yet, and it was impossible for the embroidery she made to sell at a high price.
Du Danshen couldn't help frowning, she is still young now, and she doesn't have the ability to turn stones into gold, how can she make money for nothing, but what Liu Paner said is not the best way at the moment.
After thinking about it, he said: "It takes time to do embroidery work, so I will help you do the housework in the future, so that you can do embroidery work with peace of mind, eldest sister." "I have already figured out in my heart, digging more wild vegetables to fill my stomach, but I can also save some food, so I can support it for a while longer, and I can slowly think about what other ways to make money.
As soon as Liu Qing'er heard her say this, she had always loved to compare her eyebrows with Du Danshen, and immediately opened her mouth and said: "I can also do housework, eldest sister, you just have to do embroidery." ”
When Liu Paner heard this, she felt a lot of relief, her father and mother were gone, but the two younger sisters were becoming more and more sensible, which could save her a lot of worry.
"Sister, I can do that too." Liu Yuanzhi said.
"You are a man, you don't have to do housework, these are the affairs of your daughter's family." Liu Paner touched his head and said.
When Du Danshen heard this, he couldn't help pouting, most men in this world are like this, as long as they are busy with outside things, but the housework is not touched at all, as if they have done housework, they will not be able to work, but whoever is more diligent and helps the family do more things, they will inevitably be laughed at.
"I want to help too!" Liu Yuanzhi had nowhere to start, and felt a little anxious.
"Eldest sister, you can ask the third brother to help chop wood, this is hard work, we can't do it." Du Danshen proposed.
"But ......"
"I can do this." Liu Yuanzhi suddenly said loudly, don't do anything, he feels uneasy, he has something to do for him, and then he feels down-to-earth.
Seeing this, Liu Pan'er also nodded: "From then on, the firewood at home will be handed over to you." ”
"No problem."
Their house is on the edge of the mountain forest, there is no firewood at home, and they can cook a meal when they go out and pick it up, but the family is not lazy, and the firewood at home is very well prepared.
"Eldest sister, you won't let me go into the mountains to hunt, so what should I do?" Liu Yuanshan was a little at a loss, everyone at home had arranged work, and he couldn't eat alone?
"Don't go to the mountains to hunt for the time being, I'll think about what you can do, I heard that some people in the village will go to the city to work in their spare time, but you are still too young, I'm afraid you can't do it." Liu Pan'er didn't know how to arrange him for a while, such an adult really couldn't be idle.
"You can't go into the mountains to hunt, why don't we pick some herbs and sell them in the medicine shop?" Du Danshen suddenly blessed the soul, thinking of this, of course, it is not without reason, Du Zhong is a doctor, he also came to the mountains here to collect medicine, it can be seen that there are medicinal materials in the mountains.
The crowd was a little dumbfounded, herbs? We don't know any of them, how do we pick this, the mountains are full of grass!
