Chapter 174 Contentment
"That's right, there are winners and losers in business. Of course we understand this. We don't just want to take advantage and get jealous when Youyi's wife makes money."

"That's right. If Yi's wife can make money, we should actually be happier the more we make. This means that we have chosen the right crab. If we raise it ourselves next year, we will make the same profit, and this credit He was brought out by his wife Yi, why should we be jealous? "

"That's right, give us 30 taels of rice field. If Yi's wife can sell it for 300 taels of rice, it's because of her incompetence. It's the same as the winter bamboo shoots and wild vegetables before. We all As you make money, you must learn to be content and you will always be happy.”

As soon as the words "contentment and happiness" came out, the villagers immediately laughed happily, "Hahaha~~~"

The folks in Shihe Village have been in this situation for more than a year. Whether it is the winter bamboo shoots before or the wild vegetables later, after being processed by Baitaotao's workshop, she bought the wild vegetables for one or two cents per pound, and she changed hands. After a lot of effort, I sold a bottle for several hundred yuan.

The villagers have never been jealous because they all understand that this is their own ability.

If they have the ability, then they can do it themselves, but if they don't have that ability, then don't do the things they are jealous of.

They should be satisfied if they can follow behind and earn a little bit. Other villages are not the envy of them.

Of course, Chen Lizheng actually understands everyone, and the purpose of saying this is just to slap the big guy, so that if someone who doesn't open their eyes really makes trouble later, no one can say for sure.

"Okay, now that everyone understands, let's stop talking about it today. We will decide on this matter after everyone has discussed it tomorrow morning. In addition, those in the family who are still in the border military camp should come over to collect the wages sent back by the children. ”

Of course, if the children really have something to tell their families, they will now ask someone who is literate to help them write, and they will need to pay some money, so in order to save some money, people will not write letters back often.

Bai Taotao's house itself was expected to be completed around the beginning of May. However, due to a few rains in April, it was delayed a bit, and it was completed a few days ago.

"By the way, Wife Youyi, your yard has been built now. When are you going to host a warm house wine?" Chen Zou suddenly asked.

The children are basically not very literate, let alone writing, so the only time to prove that the children are fine is when they get paid.

When talking about this, the villagers felt happy again.

However, since the workers had not been home for several months, they decided to go home for a while to check on the situation at home, and then come back next month to build a house for the Bai family.

Chen Youyi will definitely not have time to come back at this moment, so there is probably no need to wait for him. We will just wait and see when the time comes.

It just so happened that the Bai family couldn't go out at will because of some things, so naturally they had no objection.

Bai Taotao: "I am still looking at the auspicious date. I will inform everyone as soon as possible when the decision is made."

The yard here at Baitaotao is being tidied up now, and once the zodiac is auspicious, we can organize a warm house and move in.

As long as the child is fine, the salary is usually paid every three months.

The discussion was over for the time being. There was nothing else to do with Bai Taotao, so Bai Taotao was ready to go back first.

Chen Zou smiled and said: "Sure, then we will wait for your good news."

Bai Taotao: "Okay. If there's nothing here, I'll go back first."

After saying that, Bai Taotao turned around and walked towards the sandy area. The watermelon seedlings and pepper seedlings in the sand have been transplanted for a month or so. Since the seedlings were raised half a month in advance, the results will naturally be much faster after transplanting.

The first batch of pepper trees have grown so early that some of them can now eat fresh, tender green peppers.

Some watermelons here have also begun to bear fruit.

By mid-to-late June, we should be able to eat watermelons.

From planting to harvesting, it takes about three months.

Seeing that some green peppers were ready to eat, Bai Taotao picked some green peppers on the way and made some green pepper stir-fry tonight.

On the way back from picking peppers, Chen Defu came out of the house carrying a big wooden bucket, and happened to meet Bai Taotao on the way.

"Daughter-in-law Youyi, are you going to the sandy side? That's just right. I went to the fields this afternoon and grabbed some yellow lian. This is for you. You can take it just in time to drink with your father and your second brother. "

(Note: Yellow eel is also known as yellow eel in modern times. It is purely wild. In addition, loach here is also called yellow eel.)
When Bai Taotao saw that the large and small yellow pigeons in the big wooden barrel weighed almost two kilograms, she hurriedly said: "Uncle, you caught them to replenish your body. He will take the hospital examination next month. You can leave it to him." Just eat it raw.”

Chen Defu: "I left a lot for him in my life. Now, not long after planting the rice seedlings, all the yellow lilies have come out. They are easy to catch. I just caught a lot of them in a short time."

Bai Taotao: "Then you can also take it to a small restaurant and sell it for money."

When Chen Defu heard this, he said with a serious face: "You kid, take it as quickly as possible. Uncle is still short of the money to sell Huangli."

Bai Taotao looked at the freshly picked peppers in the basket and said, "How about this? The whole family can go to my place for dinner tonight. I just picked some peppers from the sandy area and I'll make them for you guys." Fried yellow pepper with green pepper.”

When Chen Defu heard this, he refused without thinking: "You kid, I have to give you such a small amount of yellowtail for a meal. Don't bother me."

Bai Taotao: "What's the matter? We're a family. Every time uncle has delicious food, he thinks about us, so we can't just eat. It's rare to come back today in this life, so let's go over and have a meal together and let him educate him well. Educate my two nephews."

Seeing that Bai Taotao had said this, Chen Defu had no choice but to nod in agreement: "That's it, wait a minute. If you still have some at home, let's just take them together. There are many people, otherwise there won't be enough to eat."

Bai Taotao simply stopped being polite this time and went back with Chen Defu to get all the remaining eels at home.

Chen Defu, the yellow cattail at home, kept the weight of only a pound, so he gave her more, probably thinking that there would be more people on her side.

The uncle was very considerate every time he did things, and Bai Taotao felt warm in his heart.

Picking up Huang Li, Bai Taotao said again: "Then I'll go back and prepare first. Uncle, you'll all come over after the uncle and the others have finished their work. If you are alive, would you like to go over with Third Sister-in-law first? Zhengwen, Zhengqi and Xiaowan can play together sometimes so that they won’t feel too much pressure.”

Yousheng, who was endorsing the book in the yard, thought for a while and said, "Then my third sister-in-law and I will go there first." After that, he turned around and put the book back in his room.

After coming out, he took the big wooden barrel from Bai Taotao's hand. Bai Taotao was not polite to him. He was a little man, but he could still lift the big wooden barrel.
