When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 577 Peasant Woman 5
Tan You went shopping in the town, and Daya and Anwen, who stayed at home, followed Tan You's instructions. When everyone went to work in the fields, the two went to Zhuzi's house and exchanged two cents for a small scoop of brown rice as they wished.

This price is far from enough to buy the food. In fact, it is the villagers who take care of them. It’s just that Daya and Anwen are still young and don’t understand this.

"When will mother come back?" Erya drank the rice porridge that could reflect people's shadows, with a look of panic in her eyes.

Because of the family's poverty, frugality is ingrained in her nature. When cooking porridge, Daya only grabbed a handful of rice, making sure that the amount would not starve to death for her family.

Sanya pouted her lips and wanted to cry, but Daya said sternly: "Don't cry, you will have even less strength if you cry."

"I'll water the plants and you two can weed." Daya thought for a moment and said, "Anwen and I will carry the water together."

The water they usually use is fetched from the river, which used to be the work of parents and eldest brother. Now that father and eldest brother are gone and mother has gone to town, little Daya feels that she should support the family.

Tan You arrived home in the afternoon. This time she mainly bought raw materials for making soap, and also bought some rice, flour, grain and oil. Who said that the family was short of everything?

The weather is hot now, so I can buy some fabrics that are urgently needed first, and then slowly add more later. In short, there are a lot of things to do, such as renovating the house and buying furniture.

But the most urgent task is to feed the family first. In short, you have to feed people first.

Fortunately, on the way back, Tan You met a donkey cart going back to the countryside. After paying two cents for the ride, Tan You was able to take a break. Just looking at the old donkey, Tan You couldn't help drooling. She wanted one too.

Who would have thought that one day she would be drooling over an old donkey?
After getting off the car at the village entrance, Tan You walked back with the basket on his back. Just after he took two steps out, a few small figures rushed over from a distance.

"mother!"

"Mom is back!"

"aunt!"

Anwen and Erya were the fastest runners, while Daya had to look after Sanya, so she fell behind. The four children surrounded Tan You, their eyes full of admiration that made Tan You's heart soften.

Because they were near the foot of the mountain and there were no villagers watching, Tan You didn't hesitate to stuff a big bag of sesame cakes into An Wen's hand, and then put a big piece of pork fat into Erya's hand. Tan You immediately felt that the basket was much lighter.

"Meat! There's meat today!" Arya shouted, then lowered her voice.

Tan You also lowered his voice: "This is not meat, it's pork fat. I'll fry some pork fat for you when I get back."

Daya led Sanya over, her brows furrowed tightly, "Mom, we don't have any money."

Tan You: "Let's talk about it when we get home."

She doesn't have her own qualities of hard work and selfless dedication. Raising children in the new era naturally has a new era style. For example, with Tan You, she won't hide everything from her children, and she must let them know what's going on at home.

With two children to share the burden, everyone returned to the Chen family's old house. As soon as they entered the house, Daya closed the door tightly, fearing that someone would come over.

She just saw that there was silver under her mother's basket!

In the main room, Tan You put the basket on the table in the middle: "Look at it yourself, I'm going to go drink some water first. If you're hungry, eat some pancakes first. I bought them with meat fillings, they should not be cold by now."

Erya took the initiative to touch it and said, "It's still hot."

As she spoke, she distributed a meat pie to each person. Tan You glanced at her and said, "If San Ya can't finish it, share it among yourselves. I won't eat the leftovers."

It's okay to let her raise a baby, but Tan You can never accept asking her to eat dog leftovers.

Sanya looked at the meat pie which was almost as big as her face, then looked at Sanya again: "Sanyah, let's share it." Daya looked at Anwen: "Let's share it and save some room for meat at night."

An Wen naturally had no objection. When Tan You returned to the main room, the four kids were each holding half a meat pie in their hands, their faces greasy from eating so much, but none of them touched the basketball hoop.

Tan You didn't say anything. She sat down and ate a meat pie before wiping her hands.

"Today I went to town and sold some recipes and got a hundred taels of silver."

Daya was the first to cover her mouth: "One hundred taels? That's a lot of money!"

"Dad couldn't even earn five taels of silver a year before!"

An Wen also stared at Tan You, his eyes full of surprise.

Tan You poured out the silver, and after counting it, she pushed half of it in front of Daya. Daya looked at Tan You in confusion, obviously not understanding what she meant.

Tan You: "You have always been careful and tight-lipped. From now on, you will be in charge of the money at home."

Daya hesitated: "I'm afraid I won't be able to manage it well."

Tan You would not discourage her: "No one is born with the ability, you just need to learn slowly. There are only a few people in the family and only this much money, can you not manage it? I believe you can do it."

Encouraged by Tan You, Daya nodded vigorously: "Mom, I won't let you down!"

Tan You chuckled: "In the future, if we make money, we will hand over half to the public school. From now on, Daya will be in charge of the accounts. Erya and Sanya are still young, you can learn these when you are older."

Erya munched on a meat pie and said, "Mom, I don't like math. It gives me a headache."

Tan You was not in a hurry: "Then take your time to watch it later and see what you like."

She counted the remaining copper coins and gave each of the four children five cents of pocket money: "This is for you, it is your own pocket money. It is up to you to buy things or save it yourself. I will not interfere with you."

Erya was almost going crazy with joy: "Really? Mom, are you really going to give me money?"

"Yes, it's yours if I give it to you." Tan You said softly, "I bought a purse, you can divide it among yourselves. But I have said before, don't show off your wealth. If others know that our family is rich, it will easily bring trouble to our family."

"Think about how your father and your eldest brother died, and you know what to do, right?"

Several children immediately sat up straight: "I know, we won't say anything."

Arya: "We don't have anyone to get along with, so who can we talk to?"

Tan You corrected her: "Whether you have friends or not, you can't tell them."

Everyone nodded. Tan You moved the silver in front of her and said, "I have other uses for this silver. The weather is hot now, and when it gets cooler, we need to buy new clothes and renovate the house. It would be best if we could buy a cow or a donkey."

An Wen pursed his lips and said, "Aunt, the cow will cost about fifty taels of silver."

Tan You: "Then look at the donkeys. There's no rush for these. We're buying these now. Life is suddenly getting too good. It's easy for everyone to get jealous. The meat tastes better when it's kept in a bowl."

“Only when everyone is about the same, there won’t be so much jealousy or imbalance.”
