Chapter 171: That Night......
Throughout March, the Ye family's workshop produced 100,000 catties of goods, handed over 80,000 catties to the Song family, and Ye Yunshu kept the rest to sell by himself.
There is not much inventory, so Ye Yunshu is limited every day, only selling it for half a day in the morning, only 100 catties, and if there is more, it will not be sold.
Bamboo shoot sauce has begun to be sold, the price is fifty wen a can, although the sales volume is not as good as sausages, but it is still good, there can be an income of three or four hundred wen a day.
The fungus and bracken Ye Yunshu were not made separately, and they were going to be added with bamboo shoots to make an assorted sauce, but the taste had not been adjusted yet, and they needed to be tried more.
At the beginning, the villagers of Taoshui Village went up the mountain to get mountain goods, and went in groups, and met a wolf, and the strength of the people was great, but they came back safely and steadily, but since then, the timid ones did not dare to go again, and only four or five families went to the mountains together.
If you don't have the capital for the things in the mountains, you just pay a little labor, and the family can earn one or two hundred wen a day, and the income is quite considerable in the village.
Ye Laohan and Ye Li have not talked much since they fought in Ye Yunshu's house.
Ye Laohan swallowed his anger for many years, and his temper came up when he was old, and Ye Li's anger had been in force for many years, and he couldn't change it at all.
The old Ye family didn't enter the workshop, the second didn't raise pigs, and now they can't catch up with the mountain goods, and the third Ye family has no business, and it is a problem for the family to eat and drink.
Ye Li couldn't help but complain about Ye Laohan, "I'm walking around at home all day long, the rice jar at home is about to bottom, and I drink the northwest wind after eating!"
Old Man Ye glanced at Ye Li and didn't speak.
Ye Li chattered endlessly, "Daguang repairs the house there, thirty wen a day, what a good job!
Ye Laohan suppressed his anger in his heart, "What can I do if I go to this leg?!Don't you know, I won't go if I can go?!"
Since Ye Laohan came back from serving in place of Ye Laosan last year, his legs have been bad, his rheumatism is very heavy, his knees are deformed, and he can't do slightly heavier work at all.
Ye Li pouted, "The older you get, the more useless you become!"
Ye Laohan had a straight face, "You are diligent, you are diligent, why don't you do things?"
Ye Li's family was like a cannon fight, "I don't do anything, what you eat and drink now is all exchanged for the old lady's dowry silver!
Ye Laohan's temper also came up, "Just go." Everything in that mountain has no roots, hmph! I got the silver, and you don't want to eat a bite!"
Ye Li's face was disdainful, "You can pick it back!"
Ye Laohan was angry, took a sickle angrily, put the basket on his back and went out.
On the way, I happened to meet Fang You, who was about to go up the mountain, "Fifth Uncle Ye, where are you going?"
Ye Laohan subconsciously covered himself, casually pointed to a piece of land at the foot of the mountain, and said, "I'll go and pick up the grass in the field." ”
"Why don't you come to the third child of your family?
"Yes, doesn't he have nothing to do now? Third Uncle Ye, you have to let him find something to do, look at the third son, he is doing well after changing it now. ”
Old Man Ye smiled stiffly, unwilling to answer.
Fang You and the others went up the mountain without saying a word, and Ye Laohan waited for them to walk for more than a quarter of an hour before slowly climbing up the mountain from the piece of land he had just pointed out.
In the past, there were hunters in Taoshui Village, and Ye Laohan followed the hunters in the village to cross the mountain when he was young, although twenty or thirty years have passed, he still has a little impression.
He walked into the mountains according to his memory, and he didn't dare to go deeper, so he only walked around the outer circle of the mountain, thinking if he could pick up some leaks.
Not long after Ye Laohan went up the mountain, Ye Li also went out.
Zhang Daguang's house is still under repair, and the scale can be seen at the beginning, although it is not comparable to Ye Yunshu's big house, but it is much stronger than others, even the Ye patriarch's family is not comparable.
Ye Li looked at the big green bricks and tiles piled up next to him, and was a little moved.
"Sister-in-law, you're here!" Zhang Daguang suddenly smiled and squinted when he saw Ye Lishi.
Ye Li raised his head in a trance, "Ah, your elder brother asked me to see if there is anyone who needs help." ”
Most of the people who helped Zhang Daguang build a house were acquaintances, and they knew that the relationship between Zhang Daguang and Ye Laohan was very good before, and they were not suspicious.
"Daguang, look, after so many years, it's still a brother in our village, isn't it?"
Zhang Daguang smiled and nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, so I'm not thinking about coming back to live, or being close to you." ”
Seeing that there were many people here, it was inconvenient for him to stay for a long time, so he said, "Since there is nothing to help, then I will go back." ”
Zhang Daguang saw that Ye Li was leaving, and raised his voice: "Sister-in-law, do you have tea there? I borrowed some to boil, but the house was not built, and I didn't have a place to cook it." ”
Ye Li turned his head, "Then I'll cook it for you." ”
"No, no. Zhang Daguang took a step forward, "I cook it myself, and I don't dare to bother my sister-in-law." ”
Ye Li stopped talking, and walked forward with his head down.
Zhang Daguang smiled, turned around and said a few words to the person who repaired the house, and then hurried to chase Ye Li's family.
Everyone didn't feel that there was anything wrong, Zhang Daguang's recipe was the closest to Lao Ye's family, and it was reasonable to go to his house to make tea, besides, the relationship between the two families was good before.
Zhang Daguang followed Ye Li to Lao Ye's house, looking left and right, "Sister-in-law, Brother Changyou is not here?"
Ye Li nodded unnaturally, "I've gone to the mountains." ”
A look of joy appeared on Zhang Daguang's face, "Ju Ying, let's talk in the house." ”
Ye Li's old face turned red all of a sudden, and he glanced at the door of the second room with a weak heart, and shook his head, "I'll go get you tea leaves and make tea." ”
Zhang Daguang nodded in disappointment and sat down under the eaves.
Ye Li took the tea leaves, turned his head and went to the kitchen to help make tea.
Zhang Daguang hurriedly followed.
The light in the kitchen of the old Ye family was relatively dim, Ye Li was busy working by the stove alone, Zhang Daguang stood by and watched, and after a long time, he said quietly: "Ju Ying, you really haven't changed at all, you are still so diligent." ”
Ye Li's old face was slightly red, he glared at him, looked out from the hole in the wall, and saw that there was no one in the courtyard, "You have been gone for twenty or thirty years, can you still remember what I was like before?"
"Of course I do. Zhang Daguang stepped forward, "Ju Ying, I remember it clearly, I haven't forgotten it at all! I still remember that night, it was raining heavily, I told you that I was leaving, you cried for a long time, hugged you and cried with you, we ...... that night."
Ye Li's face turned the color of pig liver, "Don't say it!"
Zhang Daguang looked a little excited, and stepped forward to take Ye Li's hand, "Ju Ying, I came back this time to see you, and I came back for you." ”
Ye Li was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he found that Ye Laosan didn't know when he was standing at the door of the kitchen.
