Having said this, Feng Yun saw someone selling popsicles not far away, so he took out two cents and asked Hu Guangcong to buy a popsicle.
Popsicles here are a little more expensive than in town, five cents each, and buying four popsicles cost twenty cents.
They ate as they walked back. When they got back, they saw a basket of eggs, flour and some vegetables piled up in the house.
"Hey, where did this come from?"
Feng Yun was still thinking that the flour and eggs at home could last for two days. He would go out again tomorrow and must buy some from the supply and marketing cooperative when he came back.
Qi Qiuming walked out of the house and said, "I collected these in the village."
Feng Yun raised an eyebrow, "What did you do?"
Qi Qiu understood her at a glance. "Just go to the village and chat with the old men and women. You'll get to know each other over time. The villagers are very friendly and know that we are here to stay with our relatives. Life is tough, so they brought a lot of things with them. Don't worry, they brought the flour and eggs secretly. No one knows about it."
Hu Guangcai parked his bike and came over. "Grandma, these must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Qi Qiuming waved his hand, "It's not much. Anyway, the money I brought here will be left to your mother in the future, so it's only right that I use it in advance."
The children looked at each other. No one understood why his grandmother was suddenly so nice to his mother. They also didn't understand why his mother, who obviously didn't like his grandmother before, suddenly wanted to take his grandmother away.
Hu Guangcai was the most shameless. He took Qi Qiuming's arm and asked, "Grandma, how much money did you bring out?"
Qi Qiuming slapped his hand away angrily, "What does it have to do with you? I'm telling you, don't even think about my money."
Hu Guangcai chuckled, "Alright, alright, I know, your money is only for my mother."
Feng Yun handed all the money and food coupons to Chunhua, "Chunhua, go count them and calculate how much you earned today."
As soon as this was mentioned, the children's attention was diverted and they immediately went to Hu Chunhua's room to settle the score.
Qi Qiumin took Feng Yun to her room.
Qi Qiuming took out his coffin book and said, "Feng Yun, I'm not just saying that I'll leave all my money to you. Although you guys make money doing this, we definitely can't live here for long. I've saved about 500 yuan over the years, and I'm giving it all to you. If you have the chance, buy Lao Wu a job so that we can at least live safely in the city."
Feng Yun raised his eyebrows, "You still have so much money?"
Qi Qiuming snorted, "Isn't this what I intended to give you from the beginning? I didn't give you anything when we split up the family before. Do you think I really didn't leave you anything?"
Feng Yun stuffed the money back and said, "Okay, I don't need your money now. When I need it, I will definitely ask you."
Although she agreed to let Qi Qiu Ming follow her, she still had some concerns.
If she hadn't agreed to Qi Qiu Ming at that time, not only would it be difficult to get a divorce, but with Qi Qiu Ming's personality, he might cause trouble for her. The old lady was really clingy when she was clingy, and now she was reborn. If she was determined to follow her, she would have no choice but to agree first.
Qi Qiuming smiled and said, "Okay, don't treat me as an outsider."
Feng Yun smiled and said, "That depends on the situation. After all, you haven't done anything for me, so it's far-fetched for me to support you."
Qi Qiuming: "..."
When Feng Yun came out of Qi Qiuming's room, Hu Chunhua ran over excitedly, "Mom! Do you know how much we sold this morning?"
Feng Yun had a rough idea in his mind, but he still politely asked, "How much?"
"Four yuan and sixteen cents!" Hu Chunhua handed the notebook to Feng Yun. "After deducting the ninety cents for the one pound of eggs we used, the fifty cents for two and a half pounds of flour, and the four cents for a honeycomb briquet, we made a net profit of two yuan and seventy-two cents! And we even collected ten pounds of food coupons!"
Hu Chunhua's face turned red with excitement.
"Mom, we only sold for half an hour this morning. If we sold more every day, we could make hundreds of dollars a month!"
"That's not right. I also need to factor in the cost of the coal stove and the pot. We haven't even earned back our investment yet."
Hu Chunhua certainly knew all this, but she gained a lot of confidence when she was able to make so much money on her first stall.
"Mom, let's get ready quickly and set up the stall at noon. If you calculate it this way, we can make at least eight dollars a day, which is over two hundred dollars a month. Oh my goodness, over two hundred dollars! I've never seen so much money before!"
Feng Yun likes Hu Chunhua for who she is: lively and cheerful.
"As long as we are willing to work hard, we can earn more in the future."
Feng Yun took the money and asked, "Where are the fifth and sixth brothers?"
"Sixth brother went to sleep, and fifth brother said he was going to buy some onions and a bucket. He wanted to buy a big bucket so he could have a good fight."
Feng Yun was amused by this. Today, several children have grown to varying degrees, which is good.
But it’s not okay for Laoliu to just want to sleep when he has free time.
"Let Lao Liu get up. I have something to tell him."
Hu Chunhua immediately called Hu Guangcai.
He had just laid down when he was called up with a bitter face, "Mom, what else is going on? There are still more than two hours before the stall opens at noon. Can't you let me sleep for a while?"
Feng Yun hit him on the forehead with a chestnut in annoyance.
"I have something important for you to do."
"What's the matter?"
"Let's go and reclaim some land on the mountain behind us. We'll definitely need a lot of chopped green onions in the future, and it's not a good idea to keep buying them. After we reclaim the land, we can grow some vegetables."
Hu Guangcai: “…”
He was extremely sleepy now, but he dared not disobey his mother, so he had to borrow a hoe and go to open up the wasteland.
Qi Qiuming walked out of the house and said with a smile, "I can't believe the change in Guangcai."
Feng Yun hummed, then thought of something and said to Qi Qiuming, "You're a good conversationalist, right? Why don't you ask how many dried mushrooms there are in the village? I'll collect some and they'll be useful to me."
"What do you do with this?"
"Don't you think mushrooms taste delicious? I want to try making something with mushrooms." Feng Yun said without turning her head, but she didn't notice that Qi Qiumin looked at her with a strange look.
As soon as Feng Yun said this, Qi Qiu Ming had an impression that there were many seasonings for cooking in later generations, and one of them seemed to be powdered mushrooms.
Feng Yun knows so much, could it be that she was also reborn?
Qi Qiuming's eyes rolled, "Feng Yun, you...how do you know so much?"
"What's the big deal?" Feng Yun didn't want Qi Qiuming to know that she was also reborn. She explained, "I've found that many things are universal. As long as you dare to think and dare to try, there's nothing that can't be researched. If you want to make money, you must come up with something new. Otherwise, you can only earn hard-earned money."
Qi Qiuming thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll go ask when I'm free, and I'll also go to the mountains to pick some when I'm free."
