Chapter 431 Ayu's Money
Little Ayu really prepared a gourd of water, the kind that wouldn't cause diarrhea.

Grandma Wang stopped her without saying a word, saying, "Ayu, this is a special item of yours. It's not appropriate to make a fuss about it, let alone give it away. It's not too late to give it to your sister-in-law after she's married into the family."

Wang Dalang learned that Xiao Ayu had prepared a betrothal gift for him, and judging from Ayu's behavior, it was probably quite valuable.

He hurriedly said, "Sister Ayu, I appreciate your kind intentions, so there's no need for this. My family has already prepared enough gifts for the marriage proposal, so you can keep this."

My other younger brothers also want to come and contribute, since they don't really have much money to spend each month.

The aunts in the family are all excellent cooks, and to coax little Ayu, they would occasionally make some snacks that weren't available outside.

In addition, Tuanzi would occasionally help out at the mall to find some cheap and delicious food, which Xiao Ayu would never hesitate to share with her brothers.

The Wang family's sons have become quite picky eaters, so they don't need to buy food from outside.

As for other things, they lack nothing.

Even the toys I play with, the ones sold in town, aren't as good as the ones my grandfather makes.

Over time, they saved up some money.

“With all this money pooled together, we can’t buy anything decent. And something that costs only an ounce or two of silver doesn’t look right,” Wang Qilang said, seeing his brothers struggling with their decision. “The wild fruits we planted in the mountains are ripening one after another, and we can start selling candied hawthorns again this year. My mother taught me how to make maltose before. Although it doesn’t taste as good as the kind Grandma used to make, if we make it into dragon’s beard candy and sell it together with the candied hawthorns, it should fetch a good price.”

"Seventh Brother, your words have reminded me!" Wang Sanlang clapped his hands and said with a smile, "During the Flower Festival, some vendors from the county came to our town to buy things. I saw a few selling sugar paintings, and their business was quite good. Our Second Brother is good at painting, and Fifth Brother's skills have also been praised by Grandpa. Why don't we sell sugar paintings too?"

"Great idea!" everyone agreed.

They hand over 60% of their produce to the public, and the rest, if sold together over two months, should fetch a decent price.

Although I can't make it in time for my elder brother's marriage proposal, he will still get married later, and that should be enough, right?
It must have been at least a few taels of silver.

"Get two nice silver hairpins made; that should be enough." Little Ayu is much more sensible now. Hearing her brothers' enthusiastic discussion, she asked repeatedly, "Count me in! Count me in! I want to go sell candied hawthorns with them! How much money are you saving up?"

Wang Erlang thought for a moment and estimated a price: "If I'm lucky, I can save up seven or eight taels."

The fruits in their mountains have grown abundantly, and now that there is sugarcane in the village, and they can also make maltose themselves, the cost is not high.

As they were talking, they didn't notice that Xiao Ayu had been rummaging in her pocket for a while and pulled out a large wad of silver ingots that was bigger than her palm.

He placed the money in front of his older brothers, saying, "I still have some silver here. Should I put it together and give it to our eldest brother as well?"

The men glanced at it, then glanced at it again.

Wang Wulang lost his balance and stumbled, falling to the ground.

"Good heavens, little sister Ayu, how do you have so much silver in your hand?!"

Little Ayu: "Grandma gave it to me. She said it was mine, and if I wanted to buy something but didn't have enough money, I could just take a little hammer and chip off a piece. I don't have anything I want to buy, so I haven't chipped it off yet."

"..."

They had almost forgotten that the richest person in their family was not Grandma, but Little Sister Ayu.

Grandma had already said that the land in Dahe Village was written on Fourth Uncle's head, but it actually belonged to Sister Ayu.

Those tenant farmers just paid their rent not long ago, right?

How much money must that be!
