Liu then looked at her aggrieved brother and asked, "Why are you selling this pig?"

Liu Dalang then said aggrievedly, "I saw that the soy sauce business in the city was booming, so I wanted to carry some out to sell. My family is short of money, so I wanted to sell the pigs to raise some capital to start this business. But my father wanted to beat me without asking why!"

Wang Shi looked at her son's aggrieved expression and did not try to comfort him. Instead, she scolded him jokingly, "You deserve it! Who told you to do no good deeds in the past? Your father didn't deserve to beat you."

"Mom, I've changed. Do you think I'll ever play with those people again?" Liu Dalang muttered.

Old Master Liu raised his eyebrows and said, "If you dare to gamble with those rogues again, I will break your legs!"

In the past six months, Grandpa Liu has been forcing his son to work every day. He is either tending the fields or on the way to tend the fields. Recently, after finishing the work in the fields, he was sent to the city to carry the bag. He is bound to have no time to rest!

Wang, who had spoiled her son in the past, is still frightened since the last time her son gambled and her daughter-in-law and grandson were almost sold by those bastards.

Now he pretended not to see his son's pleading look and let the old man torture him.

As a result, Liu Dalang's family status has plummeted and is now at the very end.

After hearing what his son said, Mr. Liu was not as angry as before, but he still said with some dissatisfaction: "You haven't even learned how to walk yet, but you want to learn how to do business. You think it's easy to make money from something as expensive as soy sauce? You will lose money again!" In short, Mr. Liu did not trust his son at all because of the previous incident.

This cannot be blamed on Grandpa Liu. In his impression, the soy sauce was not something that a peasant like them could afford. Naturally, he had no idea that Li Ji Soy Sauce was so popular now. He just thought that his son disliked the hard work of carrying bags and was unwilling to do such work anymore, so he came up with this evil idea!

It was just a coincidence that the two large jars of soy sauce that Liu asked her husband to bring back today were put to use.

At this time, Liu Shi also knew the whole story. She said in a relaxed tone, "Dad, you have wronged Dalang today. I came back today because of this matter!"

She pointed to the two jars of soy sauce at her husband's feet and told her parents the news she had gathered from her daughter. "The soy sauce business is booming right now. If you carry some out to sell, you'll definitely make some money!"

Li Dalang, who was standing by, also echoed, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, this job is certainly doable, but it's going to be hard work, carrying the goods around the streets selling them!"

"Dad, I brought the soy sauce today and asked Dalang to carry it out and try it."

Old Master Liu naturally wouldn't believe what his son said, but since his daughter and son-in-law both said so, he thought that this job must be a profitable business, so he stopped objecting.

When Liu Dalang heard that his sister had brought him two jars of soy sauce, he was very happy. He excitedly rushed to his brother-in-law's feet and reached out to open the jar to take a look at the soy sauce, but was slapped by his mother who followed him.

Liu Dalang retracted his beaten arm angrily: "Mom, I just wanted to smell it, I didn't want to do anything else!"

"This is something I'm going to sell for money, so I can't even smell it."

"Alright, alright, my daughter and son-in-law have been here for quite some time now. Stop chatting in the yard and come inside and sit down!"

"Father-in-law, I won't sit down. I happen to be free today, so I'll accompany you for a walk and sell this soy sauce."

Mr. Liu was also very tempted after hearing this. After all, it was his first time to do this business, and it would cost a lot to have someone lead the way.

Liu also urged from the side: "Dad, please let your husband accompany you for a trip, so that you won't be confused by the way."

In this way, the Liu family father and son followed their son-in-law out to sell soy sauce.

Wang looked at her son-in-law who was walking away with his load on his shoulder. The mother-in-law liked her son-in-law more and more and gave her daughter some advice, asking her not to be confused anymore.

Now that life at home was better, how could she continue to act foolishly like before? She just kept nodding and agreeing with her mother.

"Mom, please stop talking about my affairs. I have another way to make money to tell you." Then he told his mother about collecting chickens at home.

"Now that the weather is warmer, chickens are easier to raise. As long as we can raise them, we don't have to worry about anything else!"

Wang was very moved after hearing this. After her daughter left, she gave some eggs to the hens at home to hatch. Let's not talk about this matter for now.

On the other side, in Lijia Village, Li Yan sent off the last wave of guests. Before she could breathe a sigh of relief, Mrs. Wu brought over a few more baskets of eggs.

"These are the ones I collected from the villagers recently, a total of 1,500. I also think Aunt Liu's first batch of chickens, 80 in total, are ready to be collected. I've asked her to send them down the mountain! You can go take a look when you have time."

"Grandma is very thorough. You don't need to make another trip." Then he asked grandma to wait for a moment, and went back to his room to get out five strings of copper coins. He said, "Grandma, the aunts in the village sell goods to our family, and we don't hold them hostage. This money is for you to keep. If it's not enough, tell me."

Most of these copper coins were earned from the shops in the city in the past few days, and it would be best to use them for circulation now.

Mrs. Wu was very concerned about being in charge of a business. Now, whenever she walked in the village, young wives and old women of her age would be very enthusiastic when they saw her.

Even the woman who had gossiped about her family before, now treated her like the God of Wealth when she saw her. When she saw her from afar, she would run up to talk to her, and was very attentive.

During this period, Mrs. Wu walked in the village with her back straight. Instead of looking tired, she looked more energetic. Every day, she was either taken home by the woman of this family or by the woman of another family to check on the growth of the chickens. She really enjoyed it.

After seeing Wu off, Li Yan did not really rest. In order to ensure the supply of soy sauce, she could not slack off on the work of boiling the soy sauce.

Li Yan felt that she was too busy to handle everything, so she thought of the two older children living at the foot of the mountain. She asked them to come to her house to help her light the fire and package the soy sauce.

"Miss, why are you here at this hour? Do you need to catch a bus?" Zhao Da immediately stepped forward and asked.

Li Yan waved her hands hurriedly: "I'm here to look for your Daya and Songzi from the Guo family!"

Zhao Da then waved to the children in the yard: "Daya, Songzi, you two come here!"

The two of them trotted over and waited for Li Yan's instructions.

"Look, I have a job for you two. Do you want to do it? Come to my house every day to help light the fire and pack the soy sauce. I'll give you two 200 coins a month. Go ask your parents first. If it's possible, come home at noon tomorrow!"
