Chapter 16: Gossip
"Mother, don't worry, I just sold the rose water and Ganoderma lucidum, and I got twenty-three taels." Lin Yao approached Yao's mother and whispered, it's not that she is guarding against Yang Yun, it's just that money should not be exposed, it's better to be quiet.
"What? Twenty-three taels? Yao's mother couldn't help but exclaim, she and Yang Yun only sold six hundred and seventy wen after such a meeting, and Lin Yao only sold twenty-three taels after a while!
I didn't expect the rose water that her big girl was making up was so valuable.
"So mother, you don't have to worry about these cloths, it's almost autumn, and our family should add some clothes." Lin Yao picked up a piece of dark purple cotton cloth and said with a smile, "Mother, you see that this cloth color matches your skin more, you must look good in it." ”
Looking at the cotton cloth in Lin Yao's hand, Yao's mother couldn't help but bend slightly, and the corners of her eyes overflowed with joy that couldn't be concealed, how could a woman not love beauty, even if she was in her thirties and forties, she would still be moved when she saw these beautifully colored cloths.
"Okay, but you are not allowed to buy so much cloth in the future, my mother doesn't like these whistle-blowing things, and she will be satisfied with wearing coarse cloth clothes." Although I like it, but after all, it is too expensive, and Yao's mother is still reluctant.
Lin Yao had no choice but to say yes.
Looking at the warm mother and daughter on the side, Yang Yun was shocked, he just thought that Lin Yao's ability was just to sell some drinks and vegetables, but he didn't expect that he would earn twenty-three taels in just half a day, he suddenly felt a little lost and powerless, although he wanted to be with Sister Yao, but he found that the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger after all.
Yang Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly and skimmed his head.

Under the shouting of the three of them, the remaining Tsubaki vegetables and meat sauce were sold out in a short time.
They returned to the ox cart together, and saw that in addition to Su and Li Xiuhe, there was also the long-tongued woman Wang in the village, and Wang was talking to Su with an eager face at the moment.
"Sister Su, you are still kind-hearted, otherwise how could I sit in an ox cart, eh, I really deserve to be the wife of the village chief, it is atmospheric." Wang touched the ox cart and said to Su with a courteous face.
"It's nothing, it's just a penny, you don't have to talk about it like that." Hearing this, Su Shi raised his chin and replied with a proud and indifferent face.
Seeing Lin Yao and them coming over, Su Shi was suddenly a little surprised, "Ah, you guys sold out so quickly?" I thought I'd have to wait a little longer. ”
Seeing this, Yao's mother wanted to reply, but was pulled aside by Lin Yao, "Mother, you go and sit inside first, it's bumpy outside." ”
Lin Yao didn't want to see Yao's mother's restrained appearance, so she hurriedly told her to get in the car first.
Yao's mother had no choice but to get into the ox cart, and then Yang Yun helped Lin Yao take the cloth and tableware to the ox cart, and also followed the ox cart.
"Yo, it looks like you've bought a lot of things, what have you bought?" Seeing things, both the Su family and the Wang family were a little surprised, this Lin family, who was so poor that they couldn't eat, was able to earn money to buy things?
The two of them looked at it, and saw that there were some tableware and a large package in the back basket, these tableware are a lot, more than a dozen yuan, it seems that Yao's and Yao's girl sold it for some money today.
"Yao girl, what's in this package?" Wang Shi looked at the large package on the side and asked with some itching.
"Here's some cloth I bought, and I'm going to go back and make some clothes." Lin Yao replied lightly.
"Cloth?" Hearing this, the Wang family and the Su family exclaimed in unison, even if it is the cheapest linen cloth, so much cloth will have to waste a lot of silver, is this Yao girl's water really so valuable?
"Yao girl, what are you selling to make so much money?" Wang approached Lin Yao and asked eagerly.
"It's just some drinks that I made myself, nothing?" Lin Yao said lightly.
"What's the drink? Can drinks make so much money? "Wang didn't believe it, this dead girl only knew how to pick thorn roses to play a few days ago, when did she research out what drinks to sell for money?
"Honey lemonade, honey is naturally more expensive."
"Honey? That's right. "No wonder, although there are many mountains in Peach Blossom Village, honeycombs are generally difficult to find, and even if you find the honey you pick, it is relatively small, so it is generally eaten as a snack for the children at home.
Wang, who knew the answer, leaned back and pouted, it turned out that he was just lucky to get some honey, and this honey is not always found, see what to do with the water they have sold, and they must not be too poor to eat.
Thinking about it, she ignored Lin Yao and them, turned her head and continued to compliment Su, "Sister Su, this dress between you and He Yatou is silk, it's really comfortable to touch." ”
Seeing Wang's rough yellow wax fingers caressing his cuffs, Su Shi frowned slightly, moved his hand without a trace, and touched the hosta on the top of his head, "Well, it's indeed silk, it's made of silk that my son just bought for me this year." ”
Lin Yao, the son of the Su family, knew that it was her son Li Sheng, who was six years Chinese New Year's Eve old today, and four years ago won Xiucai and set up a school in the village.
"Ah, your family is really hurting, but it has to be your family's son who has the ability, it's really amazing to be a show at the age of thirty-two." Wang said with an envious smile.
Hearing this, Su's head leaned even harder, and the sense of superiority in his eyes couldn't stop it.
Looking at Wang's villainous appearance and Su's arrogant and disdainful expression, Lin Yao coldly hooked the corners of her lower lips and turned her eyes away from looking at them.

When I returned to the entrance of the village, it was already dusk, but the sky was still relatively bright, and the people in the village were surprised to talk when they watched Lin Yao get out of the car with a large bag.
"What are these Yao and Yao girls selling, and they actually bought so many things back? Looks like I've made a lot of money today. ”
"It's just some pots and pans, I don't know how long I saved to buy them, I can't even eat, what's the use of buying these meals."
"That's it, their Lin family still owes the five taels of silver to the Liu butcher, who knows that the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse will be able to pay it off."
……
Most of the people around are a little unable to eat grapes and say that grapes taste sour.
Lin Yao ignored the ill-intentioned voices around her, and walked home with Yao's mother with the basket on her back.
Yang Yun looked at Lin Yao's strong figure, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart, he was very angry at the people in the village for talking too much, but he couldn't do anything, and he didn't know what he could do to help Sister Yao.
After rushing over to help Lin Yao bring things home, after saying goodbye, Yang Yun went home a little sullenly.
"Mother, sister, you are finally back, Xiaobao is so hungry!" As soon as he entered the yard, Xiao Douding immediately greeted him, wrinkling his little face and crying and chirping.
"Xiaobao, my sister will cook for you later." Lin Yao touched Xiao Douding's cheek with some distress, they did come back a little late today.
Lin Yao took Xiaodouding's little hand and walked into the house, saying as she walked, "Xiaobao doesn't cry, look, my sister bought you a new cloth today, waiting for my mother to make you a new dress to wear, okay?" ”
"Really? Does Xiaobao have any new clothes to wear? Great, sister is so nice!" Usually I don't even see a new dress for the New Year, but now that I heard that there will be new clothes to wear, Xiao Douding dances happily.
