Chapter 16 Showing my brother-in-law a way to make money
"The wild boar meat was hunted yesterday, what about these?" Yu Bandao was dumbfounded as he looked at the items one by one.
After a quick look, I found that the rice and flour were all refined rice and flour, and the worst of the cloth were fine cotton cloth.
Could it be that my mother’s family has made a fortune?
"Yesterday I found a ginseng plant and sold it today for money. My family has suffered a lot in the past two years because of my stupidity, so this is my little token of my appreciation."
"Second sister, I will make sure everyone lives a good life in the future."
"Second brother-in-law, you have a skill, have you ever thought about forming a team to build houses for others?"
Yu Banxia looked at Zhang Quangui. This brother-in-law was a good man and not foolishly filial.
He was also very good to my second sister. It was the Lan family who had been bullying my second sister, and my brother-in-law was so angry that he proposed to separate the family.
After the family split up, they got very little, even the house they were allocated was a thatched hut, but now it has been replaced with a small courtyard with tiled roofs.
All of this is the result of her brother-in-law's hard work, and she still admires him very much.
Zhang Quangui scratched his head and said, "It is indeed a good thing to recruit people to be the head bricklayer, but I don't have that much money at the moment, and I can only build simple tile houses."
"Most men do, and no one would ask us specifically."
Yu Banxia smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, you don't have to worry about the money, but you need to swear to heaven that you can only be good to my second sister in this life."
"If you become rich and look down on my second sister in the future, you will be struck by lightning!" Hearing Yu Banxia say this, Yu Bandao looked at his younger sister in shock.
The third brother and Yu Banyue waited quietly, knowing that the younger sister must have her reasons for saying so.
Zhang Quangui swore to the sky without thinking, and Yu Bandao's eyes turned slightly red.
Her husband had always been good to her, and she had always known it.
But she also understood that her younger sister was doing this for her own good, fearing that her husband would become bad if he had money in the future.
"How about this, my second brother-in-law should come back with us. We will buy some land and build a house soon. I will draw a blueprint of the house when the time comes."
"When the house is finished, you can take this drawing with you. I don't believe that no one will ask you to build the house."
"Are we going to build a house at home?" Not only Yu Bandao, but also Yu Mancang and his sister were surprised.
When did it happen?
"It seems that our house is still big enough for us to live in now. Have you ever thought about what to do when Huzi and the others grow up? Third brother will also marry a new wife."
Yu Mancang was stunned and then his cheeks turned red.
He hadn't even thought about getting married, but his younger sister was worried about him.
"Okay, then I'll go back with you and stay for a few days. Even if we don't build a house for the time being, it's almost the busy farming season. After I finish harvesting my father-in-law's house, I'll come back to harvest my own."
Zhang Quangui said straightforwardly that although his sister-in-law said so, building a house is not something that can be done just like that, it definitely requires long-term planning.
But it is true that the busy farming season is approaching, so I should go help my father-in-law harvest the wheat first.
After the agreement was reached, the cloth was locked in a box by Yu Bandao, the rice and flour were hidden in the cellar, and the other things were taken away.
Yu Banxia was more cautious and left a wood-type power at the door of the cellar. If anyone had any plans to attack her, the wood-type power she left behind would be triggered to counterattack.
The boxes and cages were deliberately not left behind, as the old woman would definitely continue to cause trouble.
She waited.
"Uncle Li, let's go back to the east of the city." Old Li leaned against his car and smoked welding cigarettes.
Seeing Yu Banxia and others coming out, he quickly put out the welding smoke and went to the well to wash his hands.
After everyone was seated, we set off directly.
…
When I got back to town, Yu Bingsheng had just returned.
Seeing that Yu Banxia seemed to be hesitant to speak and finally said nothing, Yu Banxia was a little curious but did not take the initiative to ask.
It was not until I got home that I understood why Sixth Grandpa seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"What is that?" Yu Banxia thought she had misheard and asked her sister-in-law Wu Zhuxiang.
Wu Zhuxiang has been in a bad mood ever since Xu Xiucai and his mother came to visit.
"Then Mr. Xu asked a matchmaker to come and propose marriage." Wu Zhuxiang said dejectedly. Although her sister-in-law had expressed her attitude, who knew if she would change her mind after hearing that someone had come to propose marriage.
When Yu Banxia heard this, her hands started itching.
"They are sick. I said that to him yesterday. Are they deliberately trying to take revenge on me? Do they think that if he proposes marriage to me, I will be grateful and go to his house?"
"Ah?" Wu Zhuxiang was stunned. She had just seen her sister-in-law's face full of shock and thought she was extremely happy.
Who knew my sister-in-law would say such a thing.
Suddenly I was a little overwhelmed.
"Sister-in-law, next time this kind of filth comes to our house, just kick it out, okay?"
"Fortunately I'm not at home today, otherwise I would have to chase them out with a broom myself for dirtying our yard."
Seeing her sister-in-law being so disgusted, the haze in Wu Zhuxiang's heart completely dissipated.
"Xia Xia, why did you buy so many things?" Wu Zhuxiang followed her into the main room. Seeing the things piled up in the room, she was afraid that her sister-in-law would spend all the money.
Yu Banxia looked at Wu Zhuxiang and comforted her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely do what I promised you."
"Look, what is this?" Yu Banxia took out a complete set of the four treasures of the study, as well as enlightenment books such as Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Names and Rules for Being a Good Pupil and Child.
When Wu Zhuxiang saw these things, her eyes instantly turned red.
She bought these when she passed by a bookstore on her way back from her second sister's house.
In addition to these, she also bought policy essays and the Four Books and Five Classics for her father.
She said she would support her father and nephew to go to school, and she was not just saying it as she would support her two nephews and nieces to go to school in the future as well.
Even if you don't take the imperial examination, knowing how to read and do math is a good thing.
"Xia Xia, thank you." Wu Zhuxiang really didn't know what to say, so she hugged her and thanked her gratefully.
Yu Banxia grinned and said, "Sister-in-law, we are family, so you don't have to be polite. I have something to trouble you with today."
"What's the matter? Tell me." Wu Zhuxiang wiped away her tears of joy and looked at her with a smile.
Yu Banxia told Wu Zhuxiang the dish she wanted to cook, and Wu Zhuxiang nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I'll go try it later, but you have to stand by and guide me."
"good."
"Where did mother go?" Yu Banxia looked around but didn't see her mother.
"Mom went to the old house." Wu Zhuxiang replied.
Yu Banxia said "oh" and took some things for the old house. Yu Bandao also helped to take some things. They hadn't been home for some time, so it was a good opportunity for them to go visit grandma and the others together.
"Grandma." When they arrived at the door of the old house, Yu Banxia shouted loudly.
Soon, Mrs. Wu's voice came over: "Hey, my Xia Xia is back and is in the yard."
Yu Banxia entered the yard carrying something. When Wu saw it, she quickly stepped forward to take it and asked, "Why did you take so much cloth?"
"Grandma, this is your granddaughter's gift to you." Yu Banxia smiled.
Mrs. Wu was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Oh, my granddaughter is still the best. Let grandma see what color cloth you bought for grandma."
