But Zhao Lizheng also looked at her:
"It's good that Li girl is awake. Don't run around anymore. What if you fall and become a fool?"
He's still an old man with a sharp tongue!
Chen Xinli couldn't help but curl her lips.
But this way of caring for people is also quite unique.
"Okay, your family's bamboo fan business is also an important business. You should save the money you earn. You still have to marry Jinshan off. And your leg is still getting worse!"
Old man Zhao glanced at Shen Jinshan, and Shen Jinshan's face turned red.
He glanced at Shen Fugui's legs again and couldn't help but sigh.
Shen Fugui also lowered his head as if he was repenting.
Seeing that the Shen family's bamboo fans were all placed inside the house, Zhao Lizheng understood that they obviously didn't want others to see them.
I was a little anxious and barged in rashly, and I felt a little embarrassed, so I planned to leave.
He came in anger and left quietly. Naturally, Old Man Zhao would not think of informing the Shen family about the notice posted by County Magistrate Zhang today.
In fact, he could never have imagined that the little girl from the Shen family could come up with such a clever trick to divert snow water from the mountains to solve the drought problem in the northwest.

afternoon.
Shen Fuyou and Shen Jinshan also joined the team weaving bamboo fans. Under the guidance of Shen Fugui, although the weaving was a little slower, the process was accelerated a lot.
Dusk fell and the sky gradually darkened.
The Shen family wove more than 200 bamboo fans in total.

The main reason is that the neighboring county is too far away and I may not be able to get back in one day.
The next morning.
Chen Xinli and her second uncle set out early for Shitou Town, and then took an ox cart from Shitou Town to Qinghe Town. The fare was three cents per person.
More than two hours later, the sun had come out. There was no wind in the hot air, and the uncle and nephew were sweating profusely.
Finally we arrived at a small town that looked similar to Stone Town.
The town was bustling with people, and all kinds of shouting sounds could be heard constantly.
Obviously, because this is a major transportation route, it is naturally more prosperous.
Chen Xinli and her second uncle looked around and passed by a dental shop.
A woman was pulling and tugging with a little girl of four or five years old, and the little girl was crying with a sad look on her face.
A boy of seven or eight years old nearby was also crying, "Mother, don't sell my sister, sell me, sell me!"
The woman shed tears and said, "There is no food at home. I have to sell the girl first. The girl can still have food to eat. I will starve to death at home. I beg you, mother-in-law, to be kind..."
Thinking of the young man named Shunzi in the cloth shop yesterday, Chen Xinli felt complicated and heavy.
When she looked down at her pink dress soaked with sweat, she suddenly realized: She is so lucky!
