Chapter 24 Hurry up and make money
Seeing Lilac cutting the bark with a knife, she was surprised, "What kind of tree is this? Can the bark be used as medicine?"

Clove said while cutting vigorously: "This is Magnolia officinalis, and it is a good medicinal material when dried in the sun. It has the effects of warming the middle, lowering the Qi, drying dampness, and eliminating phlegm."

Everyone got excited when they heard it, and everyone with knives went up to cut it, and in a short while they got half of the basket.

Ding Xiang wiped the sweat from her head and said, "Although magnolia officinalis is a good medicinal material, it's just that it's a bit troublesome to process, and it's a lot of trouble to go back."

Ding Xiangniang was happy when she heard that, "Don't worry about his troubles, we have plenty of time, as long as we can sell medicine, we can spend as much trouble as we want. It's not troublesome to go where to make money? You're still angry and beaten!"

Yuegui nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, mother is right, it is not easy to earn anyone's money now. In this year of catastrophe, how many people flee famine and beg for food. Our two families are still good enough to eat. We In that village, people who come out to beg with their families can be seen now. It is said that the victims of the disaster came from the north, and people in our village will not let them pass through our village when they see them. If they want to come to ask for a meal, the dogs in the village Bite, look at the poor old man."

Ding Laozhong looked at the sky, "Let's go back when it's almost time, don't dawdle any longer, it won't be worth it if you fall one step further."

Ding Xiangniang looked at Yuegui and Chang Dacheng, and hurriedly asked: "Yuegui, can you not go home at night? I haven't seen Dingxiang for a few years. The two sisters sleep in the same bed and chat well."

The big head and the second head also said: "Eldest sister, don't go. I haven't been here for a long time. Let's stay at home overnight. Big brother-in-law, don't leave either."

Chang Dacheng hurriedly said: "It's okay, mother-in-law. Let Yuegui stay, I have to go home and tell my mother, lest she still miss it."

Ding Xiang also said: "Then brother-in-law, you should go home, otherwise, my aunt can't sleep because of worrying, thinking that something happened to you two on the way. Eldest sister, don't leave, stay at our house for two days, we sisters There is something to talk about, and I have to discuss it with her."

Ding Xiangniang was surprised: "What do you have to discuss with her?"

Ding Xiang looked at the tattered clothes of Yue Gui and the others, and said to everyone: "The elder sister's family lived just like that. This is a famine year. If you don't hurry up and earn some money to buy some food, in another half a year or a few months, even if you have money, you will lose money." I can’t buy food. I thought, our family will have a better life, so we must take our sister and brother-in-law with us.”

Ding Laozhong snorted coldly, "I'm bringing other people with me, and we can't even eat at home. I've seen their house is better than ours. The four are adults and laborers."

The two elder sisters above Chang Dacheng are already married. There are four people in the family including him, his parents and Yuegui. There is no child to encumber them. All four of them are hard workers and the fields produce a lot.

Yuegui was a little ashamed, "The food at home is only enough for three months. If it doesn't rain again in autumn, there will be nothing to harvest in the field. When winter comes, I'm afraid that even the spring seeds will be eaten up. It's hard to bear." to the Chinese New Year."

When it came to this, everyone stopped talking, feeling very heavy in their hearts.

Farmers who depend on the weather for food are like this, and the weather is good.Cut down on food and clothing, dare not say that the family has surplus food, at least the family will not starve to death.

In the event of severe drought, severe waterlogging, locusts, and no harvest in the field, I don't know how many people will starve to death.

Ding Xiang raised her eyebrows, "That's why I said, we have to hurry up and earn money, buy more food for the family, at least it can last until next summer!"
