5. Warm-hearted matriarch's wife
Leaving the fourth Lin to face north and continue to line up, the eldest and the third went to the place where the villagers rumored that their mother was digging weeds.
When they passed, Yue Jiujiu was sitting on a stone resting, but the hammer in his hand was not idle, and there was no grass left around him.
"Mother!"
Although the brothers came over and saw that their mother had indeed dug up a lot of weeds that could not be eaten, they didn't know how to persuade their mother for a while, after all, it was the three of them who were sons who did not do their best to find food, so that their mother was hungry to dig weeds to eat.
"Huh? Why did you get here? It's just right, come over and help, dig all this grass for me, my mother is useful! ”
Yue Jiujiu doesn't care what the two sons are doing here, it just so happens that her tired back hurts so much that she can't stand up, with these two sons digging medicinal herbs, she can earn four taels of silver in an hour, right?
The current wheat is about twenty or thirty yuan a catty, and the two sons can get about one hundred and fifty catties of wheat by digging for an hour, right? Or buy flour directly, and then she will be able to eat soft steamed buns!
Thinking about the food and the steamed buns, Yue Jiu was so hungry that he was so hungry that he gurgled and screamed.
Obviously it's just the most ordinary steamed bun, she would eat it every day before yesterday, sometimes she will change the taste when she gets tired of eating, eat two meals of rice, eat two meals of flatbread and flower rolls, and never thought that she would swallow saliva one day with gluttonous steamed buns.
So, she urged her two sons to dig quickly, and to dig quickly, so that the two brothers would not have a chance to say what they wanted to say.
Besides, listening to their mother's meaning, these weeds are useful, and it seems that they don't want to eat them, so they are relieved.
So, the villagers who walked home with the spring water saw the mother digging weeds on the mountain, and looked at the two brothers who hated iron and steel, obviously they asked them to come over to persuade Lin Yue, the old lady, why did they still mess around together?
It didn't take long for the warm-hearted old lady to climb up the hill with her legs and feet.
"Her little sister-in-law, I heard my eldest grandson say that she dug these weeds here and cooked them at home. Or is there some other use?
It's not that my wife wants to be nosy, it's really that these grasses are not eaten casually, and if you break your throat, it's light, and if you eat it and your stomach is bad, then you can't take medicine? Doesn't it cost money to take medicine? With the money for medicine, you might as well buy some food for your family, don't you say? ”
This old lady is the patriarch's mother-in-law Wang, since marrying the patriarch, she has not suffered any grievances, even if she is now in a famine, there is no shortage of food at home, so people are very easy-going, very enthusiastic, she will persuade the people in the clan to encounter anything, and she will help when she can help, so the people in the village are also very convinced of her.
Including the original owner.
The original owner was also helped by the Wang family, especially when he was first separated, the thatched house he lived in was built with the help of the Wang family's son, so Yue Jiujiu naturally would not treat others like he did, and his rare tone was gentle.
"Why is the eldest lady here? Come over and sit down for a while. ”
After helping Wang to sit on the stone, Yue Jiujiu began to explain.
"Auntie, that's the case, isn't there a famine now, the poor at home can't open the pot, I've been at home for a few days, and I suddenly remembered that when I went to the town before, I saw someone sending medicinal herbs to the hospital, and I didn't care too much about it at that time, I just remember that it was weeds, so I didn't think about digging up some weeds, and I went to the hospital another day to ask them if they could accept it."
