Chapter 67 Of course, good things should be kept for money
The two brothers of the Zhang family used to be butchers and sold pork, which was more or less a business, and they knew how to deal with people, and they were more tactful.
After that, He Jiuniang must have other things to do, and it is impossible to do everything by herself, so she needs to be assigned to others, and the Zhang brothers are the most suitable candidates at present.
Hearing that they are still useful, Zhang Song and Daniel Zhang are very happy, and no matter what work He Jiuniang wants to arrange for them, they should come down in one bite, anyway, they will not go to study, as long as they are diligent, they will definitely be able to figure it out.
He Jiuniang was very satisfied when she saw the attitude of the big guy, and sighed with a wave of her little hand: "Very good, everyone works together, I believe that our family's life will get better and better!" ”
Sun's style is a little disdainful, what's going on with her acting more and more heroic recently? Could it be that the third daughter-in-law is not here, and the third daughter-in-law will start to be a man and a woman again?
Thinking about it like this, what's the matter with feeling a little sorry for her?
Harm, I don't want to think about it, anyway, if the family works together, life will definitely get better and better!
Over the next few days, the family was busy, with the men busy building houses and the women going up the hill to dig potatoes and herbs.
The number of potatoes is not very large, and the small piece of it that He Jiuniang found adds up to less than fifty catties.
But it doesn't matter, potatoes can be grown in slices, and even if the number is small now, you can grow a large area.
As for the medicinal materials, there should be no one in the nearby villages who know herbal medicine, and no one on the mountain will ask for the medicinal materials, but some of them are dug up and eaten as wild vegetables, which is also normal.
For example, plantain, nightshade, dandelion and the like are wild vegetables that the villagers like to dig.
So much so that when He Jiuniang was very serious about teaching the Yu family and a few of them to identify medicinal materials, several people were stunned, they didn't expect that these wild vegetables could also be exchanged for money.
So, in the next few days, the Lu family couldn't even see a wild vegetable on the dinner table, and Lu Lao Er asked why he didn't dig some wild vegetables every day to go up the mountain and come back to eat, and Qin gave him a slap: "Eat, eat, eat, know to eat!" Of course, the good things have to be kept for money! ”
Lu Lao Er: ???
Now that life is better, I can't climb wild vegetables?
The people of the Sun family also have the same idea as the Qin family, and now there are many places to spend money, so it is naturally important to make money first.
He Jiuniang only thought it was funny, and said: "Actually, there is no need for this, these wild vegetables grow fast and in large quantities, just pick the fatter ones to sell, and the inferior ones can be eaten at home, these are all good things, and eating them is also good for the body." ”
What's more, even if there are fewer wild vegetables in this season, He Jiuniang can take out some from the space when everyone is not paying attention, and get a large piece, and she can pick a lot.
Anyway, they are all ordinary wild vegetables, and no one will doubt it, at most they will think that she is lucky, and she can always find fertile wild vegetable bushes.
Lu Lao Er nodded again and again when he heard this: "That's it, even if it's to make money, then you have to fill your stomach first, right?" ”
Sun slapped him again: "What's the matter, you're hungry now?" ”
Lu Laoer's face turned red, and he scratched his head embarrassedly: "That's not true, hehehe, mother, I'll make a joke, just kidding, don't be angry!" ”
Having said that, after that, wild vegetables can still appear on the Lu family's table again, knowing that these are good for the body after eating, whether they are fried or boiled in soup, they are all eaten and drunk cleanly, and they are never wasted.
Now you can't concoct medicinal materials for the time being, pick them back and wash them and put them in the sun to expose them to the sun, although they will reduce the moisture, but they are convenient to preserve, and there are several sacks if you save more.
Moreover, this sun-dried one is also the simplest concoction, but it can't be the same price as fresh medicinal materials, He Jiuniang went to the pharmacy but still has to talk about the price.
On the morning of the seventh day agreed with the academy, before dawn, the family got up and went to work, packed the sun-dried medicinal herbs and put them on the board cart that the wooden stake and the two oxen had rushed overnight, and then let the black wind pull them, and the three children sat against the sack, their faces were full of excitement, they were all going to school!
Today, it was He Jiuniang and Boss Lu who went with them, after all, the three children were studying, and the family still had to send a gay man as a representative to send the children to school, indicating that the family attached great importance to the three children.
This board car has been used all the way, in fact, it has been broken to the surface, and it has not been used since coming to Anping Village, so I forgot to change to a serious board car.
When she went out, He Jiuniang told Sun that after the matter was done, she would go directly to buy a board car, and she would use it for business in the future.
Sun naturally had no reason to refuse, and originally wanted to give money, but He Jiuniang said that if she sold the medicinal materials, she would have money, so Sun silently collected the money.
He Jiuniang naturally rode on her beloved red peony, and followed behind the carriage, as leisurely as she wanted.
The puppy stood pitifully at the intersection and looked at his mother's distant figure, looking at his thin body with some loss, I really hope that I will grow up quickly, so that I can go out with my mother.
Lotus came over to hug him, I thought he would cry, and wanted to coax him, but he didn't want to hug him, and said very seriously: "Sister Lotus, you don't have to hug me!" My mother said that I was not in good health and needed to move more, and I would have to walk by myself in the future! ”
The dirt road is not very easy to walk, in order not to let himself fall, the puppy still honestly holds Lotus's hand.
Lianhua didn't expect him to be so sensible, and after praising him, she loved him a little more in her heart.
It was still early to arrive at the county seat, and He Jiuniang's group of people went to Yuyuan Hall first, and under the stunned eyes of Boss Lu and the three little ones, He Jiuniang raised the original price by ten cents, and happily completed the transaction.
Because of the large quantity, the price is also very good, and finally got six taels of silver.
He Jiuniang is too little, but in the eyes of Boss Lu, there are already a lot, and the whole family in his hometown may not be able to earn six taels of silver after working hard for a whole year, and they have only been in a short period of five or six days.
Speaking of which, all this money was earned by the women and children of the family, and their group of men had been busy building houses and pretending to be injured, and they had not earned a penny, and they were a little ashamed for a while.
Before leaving, the shopkeeper of Yuyuantang sent people to the door with a smile: "Uncle Lu, Mrs. He, if you have the goods, you will send them to my house!" ”
"Rest assured! I'll send it to you in a few days! ”
He Jiuniang waved her hand and asked the shopkeeper not to send it away.
It was the first time that Boss Lu was called uncle, and he was very nervous for a while, but he was also annoyed that he was useless, as the eldest brother in the family, he was not as good as the third brother and sister.
When he went out, Boss Lu handed six taels of silver to He Jiuniang, and He Jiuniang asked puzzledly, "Huh?" What do you want me to do? ”
