In his consciousness, he has always regarded the little brother as a man, and the man has calluses on his hands, which is a normal thing.

“……”

Tao Zhu was a little speechless: "I treat him as a younger brother, so I feel a little distressed." If it's your brother, don't you feel distressed? ”

"Don't feel distressed, if it's my younger brother, I'm sure I've let him work since he was a child and learn all kinds of skills."

Li Qiao told the truth.

“…… So what if it's the brother of the two of us? Tao Zhu was a little worried.

This person likes him like a man-like little brother, maybe he will raise children in the future will also have this kind of aesthetics.

"Ours too." Li Qiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words "the two of us were born", and he looked up at Tao Zhu on the side.

Under the oil lamp, Tao Zhu's lips pursed slightly, and he turned his head to look at him, with worry and shock on his face.

His smile widened.

"If it's our children, whether it's a brother or a daughter, I will let them work and learn all kinds of skills from a young age. We can't protect them all the time, and they will eventually face the world alone. ”

"If we can't protect them all the time, but we bring them into this world, then the most important thing we should do is to teach them all kinds of knowledge and skills. That's what real responsibility is. ”

In this world, the laws are imperfect, productivity is low, and life is difficult for ordinary people.

Like Zheng Butcher, a small landlord at random will can't bear it.

But it is not safe to be a high-ranking official, and life and death are not a matter of the emperor's words.

Of course, the emperor is not completely worry-free, and the change of dynasty is not new.

As for his previous life, he thought that he could have a worry-free relationship, but the end of the world came.

Therefore, no place is 100% safe, only a skill can make him feel at ease.

Tao Zhu: "......"

There is no logical problem with this statement.

But the point is that in terms of this person's experience, there shouldn't be such feelings, right?

"Do you think your in-laws used to dote on you too much?" He couldn't help but ask.

doted to the point of irresponsibility, these words did not come out directly without him.

"I just think that they have worked hard all their lives, but they haven't been able to enjoy happiness, and I really can't stand them."

"So let's remember this lesson, to truly love a child is to give him the ability to break through all difficulties."

Li Qiao said seriously.

His bamboo brother is a little sensitive, and he has to make up for it.

Tao Zhu: "......"

Row horn.

It's still a little weird, but it barely makes sense.

However, if the little brother and girl work every day to learn this and that, when the time comes, they will be tanned and their hands will be rough, and it will be difficult to find their mother-in-law's house.

He didn't want his children to suffer what he was going through.

However, thinking of the faint mole on his eyebrows and his stomach that worked hard but did not move at night, forget it, it is too early to say these at this time, and the child has no shadow at all.

He changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Brother Qian'er said that in the future, he will not buy rouge gouache and beautiful clothes, he will buy fields." ”

"Buy a field?" Li Qiao was surprised and happily changed the subject: "What did he buy the field for?" ”

He said that rouge gouache and beautiful clothes do not retain their value, and if the family business is gone, these things will also become waste. It is better to buy a field, just like the village chief's house, you can grow crops on weekdays, and when you encounter difficulties, you can sell them for money. ”

Tao Zhu explained.

"Brother Qian'er has indeed grown up a lot after this experience."

"Not really. So I thought, why don't we build a house first, let's buy land first? The field is the most valuable thing, and when you buy land, you can also plant a crop of sweet potatoes and corn. ”

Tao Zhu Road.

"You're scared too, aren't you?" Li Qiao hurriedly settled the account for him: "It doesn't cost much to build a house, we can save it in half a month." When we have enough money to build a house, we will buy the land. ”

"But time waits for no one, and it will be really too late in half a month. Let's plant some sweet potatoes and corn, and we don't have to buy them when we eat them. ”

Although sweet potato corn is a miscellaneous grain, the price is much cheaper than flour, but it doesn't always cost money.

Moreover, the people in his family have a large amount of food.

As a little brother, he eats the same amount of food as a man's.

Li Qiao and Li Dashan can top two people by themselves, like noodles, their family eats with an open stomach, and they can eat 20 catties in one meal.

Of course, wet noodles will sink more than flour because they are mixed with water. But if you add the steamed bread cakes you eat, then his family can easily eat 20 catties of flour a day.

A pound of flour, if you buy it from the villagers, the price is cheaper than that in the county, seven or eight dollars a pound, and twenty pounds is about one hundred and fifty dollars.

If you add the meat and eggs that you have every day, you will eat 200 wen just for a meal that day.

Of course, he was not reluctant, and he ate happily himself.

But the act of buying flour is too extravagant in the countryside, really too extravagant.

If you eat wheat grown in your own field, you will definitely save money than spending money on other people.

"I see, you were just scared by the things in Brother Qian'er's family."

Li Qiao said, moved the small bench to Tao Zhu's side, next to him, and also held his hand.

"Don't be afraid, our dim sum is unique, and others can't squeeze it."

Tao Zhu: "......"

Okay, he pursed his lips and leaned on Li Qiao: "We offended that shopkeeper Zhao that day." ”

Compared with the small landlord who wants to kill the Zheng family's business, the shopkeeper Zhao is afraid that he is a hundred times more powerful, after all, Zuixianju is a rich and noble man's business.

The Zheng family's business for decades can't withstand the low-price competition of small landlords, let alone his family's dim sum.

"So I thought about buying a field while we could earn a lot of money every day. If we build a house, no matter how well we build it, we can't sell it in the countryside, but the fields are different. ”

"Okay, listen to you, let's buy the land first." Li Qiao nodded, if this was the case, Brother Zhu was frightened by the affairs of the Zheng family.

As long as you can reassure Brother Zhu'er, then whatever Brother Zhu says is what it is.

However, he added: "Don't worry, no matter how bad it is, I can catch fish, and if I sell fish, I can make a lot of money a day." ”

"Moreover, we can also go to the county gate to sell dim sum, there are quite a lot of people there, our dim sum cost is low, reduce the price a little, and the business will definitely be good."

That's what he had in mind.

The reason why I decided to start a dim sum business is because I don't need to bring too many items, and I can stop and go at any time.

At that time, he thought that when he and Tao Zhu got married, the two of them would go to the county gate to sell snacks with a basket on their backs every day, and with the traffic at the city gate, the business would definitely be able to continue.

He still remembered the aunt who bought Shaqima.

"Didn't I teach you how to make several kinds of dim sum before? Even if these dim sum are imitated right now, it's okay, we can sell new dim sum. It's like a peach cake, and the shopkeeper Wang's family still likes it very much. ”

……

Tao Zhu listened to Li Qiao's way out one after another, and the anxiety that had been hidden in his heart for a few days disappeared little by little.

The Zheng family can only sell meat, with few tricks, so they are squeezed so that they can't do business.

But this person has a lot of tricks and a good brain, the same and the same, and the shopkeeper Zhao wants to run their family out of the way, so it's impossible.

And, no, and him.

He is not a waste, he can do a lot of work, he can suffer anything.

In the past, he could do the work of the whole family by himself, and now he will definitely be able to support this person.

I have survived the hard days of having nothing in the past, and now as long as I am with this person, even begging for food is better than before.

"Then let's hurry up and make this meat grinder." He sat up straight and looked at Li Qiao, his tone much more relaxed.

Li Qiao looked at his moist and bright eyes, and couldn't help but lean over and kiss him on the lips: "It's too late now, the black light is blind and can't see clearly, let's play something else." ”

Play with something else.

Tao Zhu only struggled for a second, and then he couldn't hold back the smile on the corner of his mouth: "Okay." ”

Put the meat grinder aside, nothing compares to the person in front of you.

So, the meat grinder was shelved, the progress was zero, and the two of them were busy exchanging feelings all night, and when Li Dashan came to knock on the door the next day, the two of them who tossed until late at night had not woken up.

Li Dashan saw that the eyes of the two of them were red and bloodshot, thinking that they were staying up late last night to study the meat grinder, looking at the pile of parts in the kitchen, he said with a concerned face: "Uncle, you and Uncle Zhu don't have to work so hard, just sleep when you should sleep, there was no meat grinder in the past, and you didn't do business as usual without a meat grinder." ”

Tao Zhu: "......"

He lowered his eyes and remained silent.

Li Qiao looked serious: "You're right, you can't delay sleep because of this, so let's do it, you come to help today, the three of us will study together, it will definitely be faster." ”

"No problem!" Li Dashan nodded.

There is a lot of power, and he can help a lot!

Seeing this, Tao Zhu's eyes turned back to Li Qiao, who was looking at him, and when he saw him looking over, he also winked at him, with a look of smugness on his face.

“……”

Forget it, take advantage of the fact that you can still flicker now, otherwise when Li Dashan gets married, you won't be able to flicker.

He heard Wang Guihua say that since the people in the village knew that her family had started a maltose business, people came to the door almost every day to talk about matchmaking.

Not only Li Dashan, but even the youngest Li Xiaolan is remembered.

However, Li Chuntao still didn't move.

At present, the people in the village seem to believe that Zhao Erniu has been punished by God, and their attitude towards Li Chuntao has changed a lot.

But there are still no good people coming to the door to propose.

Among the children of the Li family, the most urgent is Li Chuntao, who is seventeen years old, and Li Dashan is only sixteen.

After breakfast, Li Qiao went to find Zhuang Fengshou, and he wanted to buy a field.
