Farmer's Head: Busy farming

Chapter 258

Chapter 258

Xi'er also knew that Zhang's words were reasonable, but if she looked around the Meng family, if she didn't do anything and only relied on farming, her children and grandchildren would be so poor.

"Sister-in-law, I've thought about all these issues, but the money is idle now, even if it really loses money, it won't have any impact on our family?" Xi'er could only say this, "I only have the money to open the store. All the people have left, and if anyone in the family is willing to help, they can help, and if they don’t help, it’s okay for a while.”

"Seeing what you said, big brother will naturally help you, as long as you don't dislike it." Meng Changdong could also see the firmness in Xi'er's eyes, and then said, "We still have a few taels of silver here, although not much.'
"That's all reserved for the rich!" Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but interrupted Meng Changdong, and gave him a hard look, then looked at Xi'er and said with a smile, "Xi'er, don't blame sister-in-law Stingy, our family has a child, so we need to save some money to protect our capital."

"Naturally, what sister-in-law said makes sense." Xi'er nodded, then looked at Meng Changdong with a smile and said, "Brother, I accept your wish, I have enough money."

70 taels of silver may be useless in Bianjing City, but in Baimiao Village, it can have a great effect.

Looking at Zhang, Meng Changdong couldn't help but sighed, but he didn't dare to say anything more. After all, what Zhang said was right, his family of three still had to live. Adults can suffer, but children can't.

Now that I don't want my own money, Mrs. Zhang immediately changed her tune, looked at Xi'er and said, "Xi'er, although, this business is risky, but if you really have made up your mind, you can do it." Try it."

Seeing Zhang's sudden change of camp, Mrs. Liu was stunned, and then insisted, "Anyway, I don't agree, a girl's family, at your age, you should cook and embroider in the house, Doing business is what men do.”

Xi'er knew that Liu was worried about her, but her ambition was not to marry, not to mention that she had already agreed with Chu Zigui that when she earned enough money, she would marry her!
"Father" Xi'er could only look at Meng Hai with a pitiful expression, hoping that her father could help her to say a few words.

After receiving her daughter's call for help, Meng Hai immediately cooperated and persuaded Mrs. Liu, "Your grandchildren have their own blessings, so don't worry too much about it. Xi'er has the right ideas. When have you ever seen her do something unreliable?" gone?"

Mrs. Liu was taken aback for a moment, thought about it, and it seemed to be the same, but she still didn't give up and said, "You can choke yourself if you eat an egg!"

Xi'er never thought that her mother would bring this matter up, she couldn't laugh or cry, and she didn't intend to continue arguing with Mrs. Liu, so she finished the rice in the bowl with a few mouthfuls, picked up the bowls and chopsticks and went to the kitchen.

It doesn't make sense for a while, so let's not talk about it for now.

Seeing Xi'er fleeing like this, Liu looked at Meng Hai with some dissatisfaction and complained, "It's all your fault, tell her you are fine and let her do business?"

Meng Hai is also used to being nagged by Mrs. Liu, now he is eating on his own, ignoring her.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Mrs. Zhang and Meng Changdong immediately stood up to collect the bowls and chopsticks.

Mrs. Liu snorted angrily, and then reluctantly let it go.

Xi'er's speed of doing things is amazing. After figuring out the needs of the people in the village, she went directly to rent a low bungalow at the entrance of the village. The annual rent was ten taels of silver, which made Xi'er very satisfied. After all, buying 50 taels is still a bit of pressure for me.

The rest of the money was taken out to buy 20 taels. This purchase needs to be negotiated with the shops in the town, and the price is very troublesome.

In the Meng family for the past few days, Xi'er was nowhere to be found at all, but she was a girl after all, and Mrs. Liu didn't feel at ease about what she said, so in the end she asked Meng Changdong to accompany her every day. Mrs. Zhang didn't have any complaints, because Xi'er The son gave the money and asked her to find a laborer to work in the field.

Meng Changdong followed Xi'er around the village and town all day, and was once again surprised by his sister.

He didn't know how Xi'er got so many, buying goods, bargaining, tidying up the shop, furnishing it, and even doing accounts.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like what a village girl would do. It stands to reason that Zhang's family's conditions are very good, but Zhang's family doesn't know a few words. Meng Changdong can see what his son looks like.

The current Xi'er is really capable. While Meng Changdong was surprised, a little doubt was also aroused in his heart.

Looking at the various grocery stores filled with goods in front of her, Xi'er patted it with satisfaction, stood with her hips akimbo at the door, and then said to Meng Changdong next to her, "Brother, this will be our family's grocery store from now on." Yes, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar tea, everything is available."

Meng Changdong nodded, and echoed, "Yes, it will be very convenient for people in our village to shop in the future."

"That's right!" Xi'er blinked at Meng Changdong before saying with a smile.

Although her specialty is not opening a grocery store, but for now, this is the best choice.

It is impossible for Xi'er to open a restaurant by himself. Before in Bianjing, with the help of Chu Zigui, Xi'er didn't think it was a difficult task, but now when he returns to Baimiao Village, let's forget it. Not many people go to restaurants in the town, let alone in the village.

"Hey, what is this?" A passing aunt, holding a wooden basin on her arm with some clothes in it, saw Xi'er standing at the door of the store talking to Meng Changdong, and couldn't help asking. .

In fact, when Xi'er rented this small bungalow, people in the village began to discuss it. They only saw truckloads of things being transported into the house. Know what the people inside are doing.

Although this is a small bungalow, there is a yard and warehouse at the back, which is best used for business. I heard that it used to be a tofu shop, but it couldn't keep going and closed down.

"Ma'am, this is the grocery store in our village!" Xi'er turned around and saw the aunt looking inside curiously, and then said with a smile, "Everything is sold inside, so you don't have to go to the town to buy things in the future." gone."

"Have you got everything?" The aunt was taken aback, seeing what could be found in such a small house, she couldn't help asking, "Is there any saponin powder?"

It is early spring now, and the saponin tree is gradually spitting out new buds, but it will take a while before the saponin can grow. At this time, the saponin powder will have an effect.

"Naturally, ten cents a catty!" Xi'er stretched out her hand and gestured, and then said to the man with a smile.
