Yoshida Mii

Chapter 143 each with their own minds

"They are very rich!" Uncle Song was full of resentment when he mentioned this, and he snorted and said to himself: "Sister-in-law is so mean, she doesn't even have a son, what are you doing with so much money! I think she can You can't take it to the grave!"

Although Second Aunt Song really wanted to go to Dongbao's house again, in her eyes, the sister-in-law's house had become a golden nest, and the soles of any pair of shoes were made of fine cotton cloth, and she didn't get any benefits a few times. very.

But she didn't dare, Mrs. Li is no longer the submissive Mrs. Dongbao, that girl Dongbao is also black-hearted and sharp-mouthed. She still remembers clearly what Dongbao threatened her when harvesting the wheat. She was really afraid that Dongbao would find some A beggar came and hurt the child in her stomach.

"That girl is so cruel!" Aunt Song curled her lips, thinking that Lin Fu next door sold tofu every day, and she didn't know how much money she made. The Lin family sent Lin Shi to study, and Qiu Xia saw Tian Yi again. With such a beaming appearance, Lin Fu must have earned a lot of money.

Second Uncle Song was not interested in Second Aunt Song's words, and when he was about to fall back to sleep, Second Aunt Song shook him up, "Don't sleep!" Second Aunt Song frowned, pointed to the Lin family next door, and said, "I see Lin Fu selling Tofu can make a lot of money. Why don’t you tell your sister-in-law and sell tofu too? We are blood relatives, and she wholesales tofu for us, so you can’t have the cheek to count money with us, can you?”

"I won't go!" Second Uncle Song snorted, and refused without even thinking about it. Selling tofu is hard work, and he has to yell when he carries such a heavy burden to walk around the streets. Comfortable in bed.

Second Aunt Song was so angry that she burst into tears, "You...how did I marry you, a lazy bastard! Boneless thing! Useless..."

"Shut up, you stinky bitch!" Second Uncle Song got angry at being scolded, sat up and slapped Second Aunt Song on the face, his face was gloomy and grim, "I don't like you? You don't want to take a pee to see what kind of bear you are. Like! Dare to think that I am not good!"

Second Aunt Song's plaid hair was crooked by a fan, and a few strands of hair were stained with tears, sticking to her face in a mess, sitting on the bed with a heavy belly, wanting to cry but not daring to cry loudly, for fear of being heard and shameless.

"Zhaodi is older than sister-in-law and niece Xiuyu. Xiuyu's marriage has been settled, and there is no one to tell Zhaodi that we are married. Do you think our family is poor?" Second Aunt Song said, sobbing, " I'm still pregnant with... You are a father, so you have to save some money for your three sons to marry a wife!"

Uncle Song was impatient to hear it. It's not that he doesn't worry about this matter, but it's useless for him to worry about it. Money won't fall from the sky, so he simply doesn't think about it. It's a day to day.

"Haven't I thought about it?" Uncle Song shouted, "It's not like you don't know what's going on at home. I'm going to earn money, and I have to hand it over to my mother when I get back. After handing it over to my mother, I followed into the bottomless pit without even making a sound. I can't even hear it. Think about our elder brother, who takes money from home every year, what kind of life my sister-in-law lives with Dongbao, it is even worse than us!"

Second Aunt Song was stunned for a moment, then felt hopeless, "What should I do?"

"This money has to be earned quietly." Uncle Song touched his chin and said, with an unpredictable expression on his face, "We can't let our mother know, otherwise, no amount of money will be enough to pay the third child."

"How do you earn money quietly?" Second Aunt Song asked hastily.

The problem came back to earning money. Uncle Song was very impatient, and waved his hands in anger, "I was just thinking, don't bother me, our family won't suffer in the end!"

Second Aunt Song didn't dare to ask anymore, so she could only sit on the edge of the bed and sigh aggrievedly. She pretended not to hear Mrs. Huang calling her out to cook outside.While Mrs. Huang was busy in the kitchen, she slipped out and walked over to Dong Bao's house.

At the moment, Shang Li and Dong Bao are busy selling some tofu for Darong, and Lin Fu is not free today, so there are a lot more tofu distributed to these three people. The three people are very happy in their hearts. Dong Bao smiled and said, "In the future, with a donkey mill, we can make more tofu, so we don't have to worry about not having enough tofu."

When Second Aunt Song came, no one paid any attention to her. Fortunately, she was cheeky enough, so she directly pulled Mrs. Li and said, "Sister-in-law, my mother wants to make soup, and asked me to ask you for three catties of tofu."

"How much do you want to eat?" Li Shi looked at her in surprise. It wasn't that she didn't want to give it, but that the Song family only had three catties of tofu for one meal.

Second Aunt Song curled her lips, just three catties of tofu, look at Li Shi's stingy and sarcastic look!
"Give me two catties for my second aunt." Dong Bao said, his face was not very angry, "There are not many tofu today."

Second Aunt Song was overjoyed, she nodded quickly, and while Dong Bao was cutting tofu for her, she puffed her stomach to look at the donkey tethered to the side, she was so jealous that she rolled her eyes and said, "Sister-in-law has made a fortune!" , I even bought the donkey, now it’s done, and our family will have animals to work in the fields in the future!”

Nonsence!Dong Bao wanted to spit out her saliva, he really deserved to come out with Song Yu's family.

"Her aunt, don't stand so close." Li Shi said, "I just bought the donkey, and no one knows what kind of temper it is. What if I meet you?"

Second Aunt Song took several steps back in fright.

"Second Aunt, I've cut the tofu for you." Dong Bao wrapped the tofu in leaves and handed it to Second Aunt Song.

Seeing that she didn't weigh it, Second Aunt Song blurted out, "It's two catties? Did you weigh it?"

As soon as the words came out, the noble son who came to pick the tofu couldn't help it anymore, frowned and said sarcastically: "If you don't like it too little, don't let it go!" , the piece of tofu cut by Dongbao is only a little more than two catties.

It's one thing to be scolded by Mrs. Huang, but it's another thing to be mercilessly ridiculed by a junior from Takako. Anyway, the tofu was about to be obtained, so Second Aunt Song carried it away.

"It's really quick to leave today." Gui Zhi sighed from the side, she could see that Second Aunt Song would not leave unless she got something sweet.

Li Changfeng and the old man who sold the donkey wanted to go home before it was dark. They didn’t drink for too long. They just chatted about the crops. He is very thoughtful and doesn't hide his secrets. He explained all the precautions for handling the donkey carefully before going back.

Lin Fu was an accompanying guest today, and he didn't sell tofu, so he lost a lot of money. Mrs. Li felt very sorry, and gave him and Liu Sheng two catties of tofu and one catty of bean sprouts.The Lin family and Dongbao's family were quite familiar, and Lin Fu was not very polite when he took the tofu, so Liu Sheng was very embarrassed.

Everyone knows that it is not easy for a widow, a scholar, an orphan, and a widow to carry debts, and it is time to pay off the debts. How can they just ask for things from others for nothing? Although he came to help look after the animals today, but The folks in the village are just talking about doing a favor, and besides eating such a good banquet, you can just ask for more food.

"In the future, there will be more days to ask Uncle Liu for help!" Dong Bao smiled, and forced Liu Sheng to stuff the tofu and bean sprouts. He is the son of the village chief, and it is always right to have a good relationship.

It was still light in the sky, so Lin Fu and Liu Sheng went to the woods to cut a few small trees as thick as cups, cut off the branches, and went to Dongbao's house to build a simple shed for the little donkey.After smoking wormwood in the shed to drive away the mosquitoes, he led the donkey in. Dongbao found a bucket to fill the donkey with bean dregs.

Probably because he had never eaten this kind of food before, the little donkey was very happy to eat it.

"What's the best name for this donkey?" Zhang Xiuyu smiled and pounded Dongbao.

Dong Bao glanced at Xiao Hei who had been excited since the little donkey entered the house, and said, "It's Big Hui!"

Everyone in the family was very happy, only Guizhi was uneasy. The scholar lady came to her to grind beans. Now that she has an animal to grind beans, she will lose her job.

When Dayong finished selling the tofu and came home to settle the bill, Dong Bao Tete stopped Gui Zhi and said with a smile, "Auntie, there will be a donkey grinding beans in the future, and you, help my mother and my aunt, and pay the wages. We rented a shop in the town, and we still need manpower, if you are willing, come to my house to make tofu, then go to work in the town with my mother and aunt, and then I will give you a raise."

Guizhi didn't expect such a good thing to happen, so he couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear, repeatedly said yes, and happily followed Dayong back home, feeling motivated all over his body, wishing he could live outside the home of Mrs. Xiucai. On call.

Since Da Hui came to the house, Li Shi and Li Hongqin suddenly felt that the work was much easier. Guizhi was honest and capable, and without grinding beans, he could free up his hands to help them.

However, with less work, Dongbao's family didn't feel relaxed at all. The original owner of the shop had already removed all the things in the shop. Dongbao and Zhang Xiuyu cleaned the shop inside and out, and went to In the carpenter's shop, tables, chairs and benches are ordered, and Baoji's signboard is also engraved.

Fifty catties of bean sprouts a day were not enough to sell, so Dongbao hurried to fix wooden shelves and buy rattan baskets.

Seeing that Dongbao's family is very busy, Aunt Qiuxia goes to Dongbao's house to help with work every day. Every time she goes there, she picks a basket full of vegetables from the vegetable garden and brings them over. polite.

After a few days, the whole family lost a lot of weight, and the money they had saved before was rushing out like running water. Both Li Shi and Li Hongqin were used to saving, and every day just hearing Dong Bao's reimbursement, they felt terrified.Despite this, everyone's face is beaming and full of hope for the future.

Soon it was Lin Shi's first rest day after entering school.

Wenfeng Academy has one day off every ten days, and the students in the academy have worked much harder than the students who have weekends now.

Lin Shi came back the night before. Aunt Qiuxia had never been separated from her son for such a long time. She was so happy that the whole family gathered around Lin Shi and asked questions. They didn't sleep until the moon rose.

Early the next morning, Lin Shi originally planned to visit Dong Bao's house. Today, he had a rest in the academy, and Dong Bao would definitely be at home without having to sell food.

It's just that before he went out, a guest came to the house.
