Chapter 350 That’s their grandma, what is Big Brother going to do?
Ding Heli was not surprised that Shuiqing agreed.
Medicinal herbs don’t wait for anyone, especially yam, and who doesn’t want to make more money? After all, medicinal herbs can be harvested every year, and selling them will bring in money.
In addition, if medicinal herbs are not sold, there will be no need for women in the village to help. How can the people of Shanshui Village live without making money?
You should know that the dried kudzu root is the same as the medicinal herbs in the medicinal herbs shop. The medicinal herbs in the medicinal herbs shop have no place to sell, and the dried kudzu root is even more so. Rabbits may not be sold later, and there is no way to earn money by working outside.
Selling grain is probably difficult - I don’t know if I can wait until it is ripe, and I am afraid that after the harvest, the taxes will be added up, and half of my life will be taken away.
No matter how good Shuiqing and Fan Jin are, they can’t support the entire Shanshui Village for nothing. Everyone must work to support themselves and their families.
It is very dangerous to go out and deliver goods, but being able to earn money, even if it is only a few taels of silver, can also solve all kinds of panic in this world.
Alas, it is not easy to live. It is easy to live a hard life, but it is very difficult to live a good life.
Shuiqing has already thought about the actual situation of subsequent delivery: "This year's New Year is different from previous years. I am afraid that people in the village will not go to other people's homes in the first month of the year. Even if they do, it is estimated that three to five days will be enough;
I plan to take a five-day holiday and hurry up to make the medicinal materials. After the first month of the year, I can hire men in the village to deliver them to Yuhang. There are not many medicinal materials in this first year. I only need to deliver them once in the first half of the year. I have to wait until the medicinal materials are harvested next year.
But it is also good to have delivery experience at the end of next year."
This autumn, Polygonum multiflorum has been planted. There are more in the fields and mountains than last year, and each household in the village has also planted a lot. Next year's output cannot be compared with this year!
At that time, the women in the medicinal materials workshop will not stop working to prepare the medicinal materials, and the men will have to deliver the goods non-stop, so experience is crucial.
"Use donkeys to pull the goods, and the men will protect the goods. This way, the journey will be fast, and the men will have the strength to fight the enemy when something happens!" Hu Wenhua suggested.
Shuiqing immediately adopted it: "Okay, not only is it too tiring to pull the goods manually, but it is also not fast. Go early and come back early so as not to delay the spring plowing."
Hu Wenhua: ... His sister is too realistic.
But in the current world, there is nothing wrong with being realistic.
The whole family felt extremely relieved thinking about the four carts full of goods.
After going out to buy New Year's goods, the whole village was filled with a joyful atmosphere. Seeing the things they bought were neatly stored, the adults breathed a sigh of relief and told their families about the situation in the city.
The rich were robbed for money and killed, and the government office did not care about the chaos in the city. This time, their rabbits can be sold, but what about next time?
And the city is in chaos, how many times can they sell rabbits without getting into trouble?
The most important thing is that if the shopkeeper Qin leaves and Renjitang closes, it doesn't matter if the dried kudzu root can't be sold, but, "What about the herbal medicine shop?"
Everyone was stunned!
Yes, if Renjitang closes, who will sell the herbal medicine shop's herbs to? If the prepared herbs can't be sold, what's the use of them?
There's no money to pay wages.
After the joy is over, those who react are sad.
The younger children don't understand these twists and turns and worry about their future livelihoods. They only know that today is the time to buy New Year's goods, and there will be delicious food for the New Year. They cheer and play on the dirt road in the village, and discuss loudly what delicious food there is for the New Year.
Fan Sizhu listened to the cheers and heated discussions outside the wall, and then turned around to look at his family members who were arguing with red faces and thick necks in front of him, and he was about to cry.
Yes, the children of other families in the village were immersed in the joy and satisfaction of buying New Year's goods, only his family didn't buy New Year's goods and was still arguing!
"Grandma, you already have a new set of clothes, don't be too selfish!" Fan Dazhu gritted his teeth and said with a bad look.
Fan's mother refused to give in, raised her drooping eyelids and was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently: "That was last year's clothes, and it was made of coarse cloth! How can it be called new clothes? It's old!
This is what your second uncle gave to your grandma, so it belongs to me. You can only ask for it if grandma gives it to you, and you are not allowed to think about it if grandma doesn't give it to you!"
She was thinking of giving the cloth that the second son gave to her next year to her eldest grandson, but he couldn't even wait until next year and thought about her cloth this year.
Great job.
"Grandma, you are already this age, cotton cloth is enough, why do you need fine cotton?
Besides, dark red is not suitable for older people, but after the New Year I will be eighteen, and I will meet a girl by then. This red fine cotton material is just suitable for making a wedding dress for me." Fan Dazhu said unhappily.
He didn't plan to make it for himself. Red fine cotton material is so expensive. When he sees a beautiful girl, he can give it as a betrothal gift. How can he not be tempted?
He didn't want to marry an ugly woman. If that happened, he would have nightmares about her every night!
But if he said he was going to make clothes for other girls, grandma wouldn't agree. He could only say he was going to make wedding clothes for himself.
Fan Erzhu thought that he was seventeen after the Chinese New Year, and his body shape was similar to that of his elder brother. He could wear it after his elder brother wore it. He quickly joined the persuasion: "Big brother is right, grandma, you have always loved us the most. Is a set of clothes more important than our wedding?"
Fan's mother was so angry that she trembled all over. This was fine cotton fabric, and she only had this set of fabric. If she gave it to them, she would have nothing left.
How could she wear it out and show off to the people in the village?
"Oh Didn't mother always say that she loved her grandchildren the most? How could she not even give away a set of clothes?" Sun Jinhua said coldly beside her.
In the past, the sons always stood on their grandma's side and let themselves give in. I never thought that they would have a quarrel one day. I've never seen such a thing before!
Fan's mother was ridiculed by her eldest daughter-in-law, and her face was red and white alternately.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and said viciously: "Don't even think about it! You don't have a share. You dare to take advantage of me before I die. If you really make me angry, I will take the fields and forests to the second son's house to live in retirement!"
This group of conscienceless people, she left the second son's family's comfortable life, wasn't it just to leave her share of the fields to them? Now, for a piece of material, she actually showed such a stinky face!
Sun Jinhua panicked for a moment and winked at her sons.
Fan Dazhu quickly admitted his mistake: "Grandma, I was wrong! Don't leave, can't I just give it up?"
"I don't want it either, I'll give this piece of material to grandma to make clothes." Fan Erzhu followed.
Fan's mother snorted, flicked her sleeves and went into her room angrily.
Seeing grandma enter the largest and best room in the house, Fan Dazhu and Sun Jinhua looked at each other with gloomy and cold eyes.
Fan Erzhu and Sanzhu remained silent and looked up at the closed door of grandma's room.
Fan Sizhu accidentally saw the gloomy look of his mother and eldest brother, and felt a chill in his heart.
That was their grandma, the grandma who tried every means to treat them well, what was the eldest brother going to do?
