The Wu family was in a mess because Old Mrs. Wu sprained her back.
After a period of crying, the Shen family began to prepare for exile.
"Second brother, take Jinshan to the government office this afternoon to be exiled. Yuehua and your sister-in-law should pack up at home. Let's pack our bags as soon as possible and set off tomorrow!"
After Shen Fugui learned his lesson, he began to give instructions to his family.
"Dad, what about our business?"
Shen Jinshan asked, touching his head.
In addition to bamboo fans, there is also a grass jelly business that my sister is planning to start at home.
Three days ago, after some testing, Chen Xinli finally made the dark, shiny and sweet grass jelly jelly.
It was simply added with honey and chilled with water from the mother well. After the Shen family finished eating it, they were full of praise for this dessert from the fairy world.
They unanimously decided: after the underground channel was dug, they would let Chen Xinli follow his second uncle to Qinghe Town and the county's restaurants for trial sales.
But who knew that they would be exiled because of their relatives.
Shen Fugui said with a look of regret: "Business is impossible, but we still have about 700 bamboo fans. If we can sell them, it's best to sell them all. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient on the road if we don't have some money.
Wu Yuehua looked at the three large baskets of bamboo fans in the corner, her face showing worry: "Boss, what if Manager Pang hears that our family is going to be exiled and refuses to accept the bamboo fans?"
"Mother, no, I trust Manager Pang."
Chen Xinli saw that her family was beginning to cheer up, and she felt relieved and joined the conversation.
After comforting her mother's anxiety, she continued, "Dad is right. Our family needs money right now. We need money to buy things on the road and to pay officials. After we bought food a few days ago, we have less than ten taels of silver left at home, which is far from enough.
I'd like to try delivering eggs to Mr. Li's house in town again this afternoon, even if it's a little cheaper."
Having money in hand and not being worried is the principle that Chen Xinli has always adhered to.
"Ali is right. Second uncle will go with you."
"I'll go too," Shen Jinshan said unwillingly.
"Okay, Second Uncle, Big Brother," Chen Xinli smiled at them and said, "In addition to preparing money, we also need to prepare some more things."
"Well! We are a poor family and don't have much at home, so we just take what we can take with us."
Second Aunt Zhang Fangju said casually from the side.
Wu Yuehua: "Yes, take them all with you. We can cook on the road."
"Second Aunt, Mother, you can take things from home, but we still need some things, such as medicinal herbs. If we get a headache or fever on the way and can't find a doctor, we will be in danger."
Shen Fuyou seemed to have thought of something, and he slapped his forehead and replied: "Yes, how could I forget this."
Seeing his wife looking at him with disdain, Shen Fuyou chuckled and said, "Let's prepare some honeysuckle, it's good."
A few days ago, when digging a canal, Shen Fuyou worked too hard and felt his head buzzing from the sun.
Later, when he saw Zhao Li and other women bringing tea, he thought of drinking it to quench his thirst.
But after drinking it, I felt refreshed and immediately had energy again.
Later he found out that it was honeysuckle tea specially prepared by his niece for the villagers, and he was deeply impressed.
“Yes, we should prepare some of them, such as honeysuckle tea, and some herbs for treating diarrhea, headaches, fever, and repelling mosquitoes.
This trip will probably take several months. The weather in the southwest is probably different from here, so we need to prepare some clothes."
Chen Xinli summarized it in her mind and said it out loud.
Finally, after collective discussion by the Shen family.
In the afternoon, Shen Fuyou took Shen Jinshan and Chen Xinli to Mr. Li's house to sell eggs, and then went to the county government office to collect the exile certificate, and also delivered bamboo fans and bought some things.
It doesn’t matter if you buy a lot of things, you can put them into the magic weapon of the gods.
The family sprang into action.
The two women were busy preparing a late lunch.
Chen Xinli asked her eldest and second brothers to go into the space to pick up eggs. In less than half an hour, they had picked up two large baskets, estimated to have about four or five hundred eggs.
Ask the eldest and second brothers to pack all the eggs into bamboo baskets and put them in the space temporarily.
After the family finished lunch, the uncle, nephew and two other people got on Uncle Xu’s ox cart again and headed towards the town together.
When we arrived at Huaihua Lane at the backyard of Mr. Li's house, it was already three quarters past midnight (almost two o'clock in the afternoon).
"Little girl, it's you!"
Because the incident happened suddenly today and it was not an early morning market, Chen Xinli thought about it for a moment on the way and decided to sell directly door-to-door.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived, I met the woman in charge of purchasing for Mr. Li's family. She seemed to be about to go out.
Chen Xinli stepped forward quickly and said, "Hello, Auntie, you still remember me. Do you still need eggs?"
"Yes, my wife said your eggs taste especially good, so she's waiting for you to deliver them!"
The woman still remembered the bamboo fan that Chen Xinli gave her. Her little girl loved it very much, and she immediately had a better impression of Chen Xinli.
"Thank you for your concern, Auntie," Chen Xinli replied with a smile.
"Just pack it the same way you packed it last time and send twenty baskets of eggs. Our master's birthday is coming up in a few days, and the mistress wants to make a big fuss."
The woman said readily.
"Then I, the younger generation, would like to wish you a long life, blessings as deep as the sea, and may you have this day every year!"
Chen Xinli bowed and offered blessings.
"Oh, the little girl speaks so sweetly, I like it."
The words were elegant, like those spoken by a scholar. The woman couldn't help but look at Chen Xinli with a higher regard.
"Auntie, my eldest brother is out delivering goods to other families. To be honest, we have a lot of extra eggs this time, and we may not be able to deliver eggs like this in the future."
"Can't deliver it?"
The woman looked suspicious.
"Because our family is going out of town, we will leave after delivering the last batch to the town and county today."
Chen Xinli explained.
Seeing the woman's regretful expression, Chen Xinli added: "If you like my eggs, I can leave twenty more baskets for your family. Store them in a cool place or pickle them. They can be stored for a long time, or you can give them away.
The eggs in my house are all wild eggs grown in the wild forests, and they are better than the eggs here."
"Okay, little girl, we're compatible. Just for your auspicious words, our master will like you too. Wait, I'll go talk to the lady."
The woman said to Chen Xinli with a smile, then went back into the mansion.
