Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Dig wild vegetables and make money!
Zhuo Jia and Zhang Yunhuan each carried a basket with a small shovel in it and walked towards the mountain together!
Zhang Yunhuan asked quietly, "Why do you like eating wild vegetables?"
After asking the entire team, I couldn't find anyone who liked to eat wild vegetables.
Zhuo Jia looked around and quickly said, "Keep your voice down!"
Who likes to eat wild vegetables? And is it an honorable thing to go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables?
Now she can guess what others will say. She has sacrificed too much for the purchasing group!
"It was you who said you wanted to go dig wild vegetables!" Zhang Yunhuan said dissatisfiedly.
Who is she doing this for? Jia Jia actually said this. She knew that women were fickle, but there was no need to change so quickly.
Zhuo Jia coughed dryly: "I just want to taste it, I don't mean to like it, please be careful with your words!"
Who likes to eat wild vegetables? It’s okay to eat them once or twice occasionally, but if you say you like them, that’s pure slander!
Zhang Yunhuan snorted. Anyway, she had no expectations for wild vegetables. She just loved eating meat!
The two of them exchanged a few words, and soon they reached the mountain. At this time, there were still many people on the mountain, some looking for firewood, some collecting pig grass, and some digging wild vegetables...
There are people everywhere!
"There are so many people on the mountain!" Zhuo Jia said in surprise as it was her first time going up the mountain.
She had really never been to the mountain before, at most she just passed by at the foot of the mountain!
Zhang Yunhuan snorted, "Come on, I'll take you to pick some wild vegetables. I know where they're abundant."
After all, she had been in the mountains for so long, so she knew very well where to find fresh wild vegetables.
Zhuo Jia quickly said, "Okay, okay, then I'll follow you. By the way, let's try to avoid adults and go where there are more children."
It is much easier to exchange wild vegetables from children than from adults, and it is easier to fool people by exchanging more or less!
Zhang Yunhuan said without even looking up, "Of course. If we dig wild vegetables with the adults, we won't have enough to eat until tomorrow."
Judging from how clumsy they are, it’s hard to say whether they are digging wild vegetables or the wild vegetables are digging them!
"The key point is that those adults will catch us and ask us all kinds of questions." Zhuo Jia added seriously.
You know, she and Zhang Yunhuan are hot topics in the team. If they really get into a group of women, they may not be able to get out!
The two people who reached an agreement walked for a long time before they finally met a group of children. These children were obviously veterans. They carried baskets on their backs and held small shovels in their hands. They were quick-eyed and quick-handed. They bent down and dug accurately. Soon they dug a pile.
"This is shepherd's purse. Let's get started." Zhang Yunhuan said, taking out a small shovel.
If you can’t snatch it from adults, can you snatch it from children?
Half an hour later, Zhang Yunhuan looked at her and Zhuo Jia's baskets, which were still not full of wild vegetables. After a moment's thought, she asked, "Can we fill our baskets?"
I can’t snatch it away from these kids, I really can’t snatch it away from them. These kids always hit the mark when they dig, and sometimes they even make mistakes. It’s really enough!
Zhuo Jia rolled her eyes and said seriously, "Let's dig separately. We're sure we can fill it up."
Let her go aside and show off her money skills!
"Okay, I'll dig here, you move to the side." Zhang Yunhuan waved his hand and said without raising his head.
It doesn’t matter whether the hole is full or not. What matters now is how to save your face!
Zhuo Jia said something to her and walked to the side with the basket. There were people everywhere in the area, so there was no need to worry about getting lost. After walking for a while, Zhuo Jia saw her first target.
A little girl, about ten years old, was carrying a basket that was almost full of wild vegetables. She pursed her lips as she dug the vegetables very seriously. Perhaps she sensed someone coming, so she looked back with a wary look on her face, breathed a sigh of relief, and called out, "Zhuo Zhiqing."
She knew who this was. It was Xiaozao, the third granddaughter of Zhao Sanniang. Oh, this Zhao Sanniang was the one who had fought with Aunt Li in the field!
"Xiao Zao, why are you alone here? Where are your sisters? Has your eldest sister gone to work again?" Zhuo Jia asked from the side.
While asking the question, she also looked down at the wild vegetables in Xiaozao's basket. They were quite good, all of them were tender wild vegetables.
Xiaozao pursed her lips and said, "My eldest sister is at home, and my second sister is digging wild vegetables somewhere else."
Zhuo Jia was a little surprised. You know, Xiaozao's elder sister Xiaocao was very efficient at work. She was only thirteen years old this year, but she had already started working to earn work points. To put it bluntly, she was not even as good as a thirteen-year-old child. She couldn't understand why Zhao Sanniang was willing to let Xiaocao stay at home?
She didn't want to force it, after all, she wasn't familiar with these children. She just asked, "Xiao Zao, do you know where your second sister is?"
She had exchanged firewood from Xiaozao's second sister Xiaohua before!
Originally, she was planning to look for Xiaozao this time, but when she thought of Zhao Sanniang, she decided to look for Xiaohua because Xiaozao listened to Xiaohua.
Xiaozao blinked, looked at Zhuo Jia and said, "Zhuo Zhiqing, I'll take you to find my second sister."
The last time the second sister helped Zhuo Zhiqing collect firewood, the candy Zhuo Zhiqing gave them was so delicious, it was the most delicious thing they had ever eaten in their lives!
Under Xiaozao's guidance, Zhuojia found Xiaohua easily. She walked up to Xiaohua and said, "Xiaohua, I want to trade some wild vegetables with you."
Get straight to the point and don’t delay your children’s work!
Xiaohua's eyes lit up. She handed the basket to Zhuo Jia and nodded vigorously, "Zhuo Zhiqing, sure. How much do you want to exchange? Is this enough for my sister and me? If not, we can dig more!"
She liked Zhuo Zhiqing, who would give them candy and biscuits!
Once she was so hungry that she couldn't bear it anymore, and it was Zhuo Zhiqing who gave her a biscuit to help her get through it!
"Yours is enough for me." Zhuo Jia said after thinking for a while.
She didn't want the two sisters to go home and be scolded because there were no wild vegetables.
Xiaohua said eagerly, "Zhuo Zhiqing, my sister and I can exchange them for you. We can dig more."
Anyway, no matter how much wild vegetables they dig, they will be scolded when they get home. In that case, why can't they exchange them for some candies or biscuits? At least these can make them less hungry when they are hungry!
Zhuo Jia: "..."
Finally, she couldn't resist the eager gazes of the two children and asked them to pour out all the wild vegetables in their baskets to her. She asked the two children, "What do you want to exchange for? Candy or cookies? Let me tell you, I can give you candy now, but you can only get cookies when I get home."
As for giving money to children?
Don't even think about it. Giving money won't guarantee that it will end up in the hands of the child. Even if it does, the child will have no place to spend it. It's better to give him some food.
"I want cookies!" Xiaohua, who had tasted the cookies once, said impatiently.
She wanted her elder sister and younger sister to taste the cookies. Last time, she was so hungry that she ate all the cookies that Zhuo Zhiqing gave her.
Zhuo Jia nodded and handed Xiao Hua three candies: "Sweet your mouth first, and remember to ask me for cookies when you get back. There are three in total."
She didn't cheat the child. Three biscuits in exchange for these wild vegetables was more than enough!
"Yes, thank you, Zhiqing Zhuo." Xiaohua and Xiaozao said in unison.
Without delaying the two children from continuing their work, Zhuo Jia turned around and left with a basket of wild vegetables. The two sisters worked efficiently, and she would go back to clean up the vegetables. These wild vegetables could be sold to "grocers", which would make money.
She transferred the wild vegetables in the basket to the backpack in the warehouse, and then found three children to exchange wild vegetables. Finally, when she saw that the time was almost up, she went to find Zhang Yunhuan with a full basket of wild vegetables.
"Let's go back." She walked up to Zhang Yunhuan and said.
At the same time, he peeked at Zhang Yunhuan's basket. Well, he finally covered the bottom. It was not easy.
Zhang Yunhuan looked up and said weakly, "Why are we going back? Did you dig enough wild vegetables to eat?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a basket filled with wild vegetables appeared right under her nose...
"Ahhh, how come you dug so many wild vegetables?" Zhang Yunhuan screamed and asked in disbelief.
What's going on? Why is there such a big difference between the two?
Without waiting for Zhuo Jia to answer, she covered her lips and asked in surprise: "Are you born to dig wild vegetables?"
Otherwise, how could they dig so fast?
Zhuo Jia: "..."
She took the basket and said angrily, "You are born to dig wild vegetables. Are you going to leave or not? I am leaving!"
As a human being, how can you curse so harshly!
"Let's go, let's go." Zhang Yunhuan didn't care what she said. He grabbed the basket and followed with a smile on his face.
Hahaha, it’s great that I don’t have to dig wild vegetables!
On the way back, Zhang Yunhuan leaned over to Zhuo Jia and asked, "Jia Jia, why did you dig so many wild vegetables?"
Does this really depend on talent?
"I exchanged it with the child." Zhuo Jia glanced at her and said lightly.
She has money and can't eat meat, but can't she eat wild vegetables?
Zhang Yunhuan, who understood the meaning of her words, remained silent, then gave her a thumbs up. There was nothing wrong with what she said!
"How do you eat these wild vegetables?" Zhang Yunhuan asked.
Serve cold or with scrambled eggs!
Zhuo Jia thought for a moment and said, "Let's eat dumplings."
Shepherd's purse dumplings are quite famous. Let her try them too. Aren't shepherd's purse dumplings of this era particularly delicious?
Zhang Yunhuan was silent for a moment: "Does that mean we need to put some meat in it?"
I originally wanted to eat pork dumplings, but it’s okay to change them to shepherd’s purse dumplings.
"Well, why don't you buy less meat?" Zhuo Jia looked at her and asked.
Zhang Yunhuan nodded: "Okay, then I'll go to the city to buy meat tomorrow, and you can pick up the wild vegetables at home."
"Okay, come to my house tomorrow to ride a bike." Zhuo Jia said.
The two of them quickly discussed how to eat the shepherd's purse, and then Zhang Yunhuan handed the basket and shovel to Zhuo Jia, and she went straight back to the educated youth point!
…
Zhuo Jia returned home and put both baskets in the kitchen. She sat down on a small stool and started to pick the shepherd's purse. She didn't pick too much, just enough for her to have a meal.
Wash the shepherd's purse, blanch it in hot water, and then add seasoning...
In the evening, Zhuo Jia ate a big steamed bun with this plate of cold shepherd's purse!
You know what, fresh and tender shepherd's purse is quite delicious!
After dinner, Zhuo Jia was not in a hurry to rest. She cleaned up all the shepherd's purse in the warehouse in the kitchen. She didn't need to wash it, just cleaned off the dirt and then put it back into the warehouse. At the same time, she contacted the "grocery dealer" in the purchasing group.
Grocery Store: [Fresh shepherd's purse, would you like to buy it?]
Grocer: [Wild?]
Grocery Store: [Yes, I just dug it up from the mountain this afternoon!]
Grocer: [Collect!]
Seeing the receipt, Zhuo Jia directly sent all the wild vegetables in the warehouse over. There were not many, just five pounds. Soon the "grocer" transferred the money to her. She accepted it and then checked the balance. Very good, the net income from these five pounds of shepherd's purse was 250, and the current balance was 560!
Zhuo Jia: "..."
Dig wild vegetables, dig wild vegetables!
Zhuo Jia, who loves digging wild vegetables, woke up early the next morning and got up with great interest. She earned 250 yuan from the wild vegetables yesterday, which made her dream about digging wild vegetables!
She hurried to wash up, then ran into the kitchen to cook, adding water and rice to the pot, and then lit the fire...
Soon smoke came out of the pot. She stuffed two pieces of firewood into the stove and let the rice in the pot simmer slowly, then went out to wash her face. It was too hot to burn a fire this day, and she didn't even want to cook!
No, she must find a way to get a stove and some coal so that cooking will be easier!
Alas, I just made some money and before I can even feel the warmth in it, I already start thinking about how to spend it.
After breakfast, Zhuo Jia didn't rush out, but squatted on the ground to pick up the remaining shepherd's purse, which was intended for making dumplings. As soon as she squatted down, Zhang Yunhuan came.
Zhang Yunhuan came in with a small bag slung over her shoulder and went straight to her bicycle: "I'm going to buy some meat now. You prepare it first. When I come back, we'll make dumplings."
She wants to eat white flour dumplings for lunch today, and no one can stop her!
Zhuo Jia saw her out: "I understand. Please drive slowly on your way."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Zhang Yunhuan skillfully riding the bicycle, pushing hard with his feet, and soon disappeared in front of her.
Zhuo Jia: "..."
This is really anxious!
Zhuo Jia returned home and continued to pick shepherd's purse. Not long after, someone knocked on the door. She walked over curiously and opened the door to see Qiao Wei and his two siblings, no, four, standing outside.
Seeing her, four children rushed over:
"Second Aunt."
"Second aunt."
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. Great, she was indeed very popular. She stood outside the door and looked towards her sister-in-law's house. Sure enough, the door there was wide open. She let the four children in and went into the house to get some candies and biscuits. The four children behaved well and stayed in the yard.
She went to the kitchen to get the mustard greens, and while she was cleaning them up, she watched the four children. Well, there was no need for her to watch, as the four children had something to play with. Qiao Wei even found a broom to help her sweep the yard!
"Second sister-in-law, I heard four children talking here. I hope they didn't bother you?" Qiao Anqin came in from outside and said with a smile when she saw the four children.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw biscuit crumbs at the corners of her fat daughter's mouth. Great, she knew that these children came to her second sister-in-law's house just to eat!
Zhuo Jia also laughed: "No, these children are very well behaved. Xiao Wei even helped me sweep the floor."
My sister-in-law has taught these children very well and she is very smart!
Qiao Anqin also smiled. When she saw Zhuo Jia picking up shepherd's purse, she squatted down, stretched out her hand and began to help: "Second sister-in-law, you dug the shepherd's purse very well. It's tender and fresh."
But even if it is tender and fresh, she doesn't want to eat it. When there was no food at home, she dug wild vegetables every day. Now she feels uncomfortable when she sees wild vegetables!
Zhuo Jia nodded: "Yes, it's tender and fresh. The cold shepherd's purse I had last night was especially delicious."
Regardless of whether it tastes good or not, the key point is that it is worth the money!
Qiao Anqin: “…”
Perhaps only educated youth from the city like her second sister-in-law like to eat wild vegetables!
"How are you going to eat so many wild vegetables, sister-in-law?" Qiao Anqin couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Although she doesn't like to eat it, she can't resist her curiosity.
Zhuo Jia spoke frankly, "Zhang Yunhuan went to buy some meat and will be back soon. We'll have shepherd's purse dumplings for lunch. Let's try them and see if they're delicious."
Qiao Anqin blinked, thought for a moment, and said, "It should be delicious if you put meat in it, right?"
But few people would eat it like this, eating wild vegetables with meat, this is such an insult to meat!
"Shepherd's purse is delicious. I heard there is a dish called scrambled eggs with shepherd's purse. I want to try it someday." Zhuo Jia said seriously.
She still has to continue digging wild vegetables!
Qiao Anqin's hands trembled. Very good, first the meat, then the egg. She is worthy of being her second sister-in-law!
She felt that she had broadened her horizons. You know, when they ate wild vegetables before, they would just blanch them in hot water and eat them cold. They didn't add so many good things, so the wild vegetables didn't match!
But my second sister-in-law really knows how to eat and is willing to eat it!
Qiao Anqin silently changed the subject: "By the way, sister-in-law, my boyfriend will be here in a few days. Come to the old house for dinner then."
Alas, she came back this time because her second brother was getting married. Now that her second brother was gone, it was time for her to leave too. It just so happened that her husband came back from his transportation job and was ready to pick her up and go together!
"Okay, I'll definitely go there then." Zhuo Jia nodded.
She hasn't met Qiao Anqin's boyfriend yet, so she's going to meet him this time.
After talking for a while, Qiao Anqin left with the four children. After they left, Zhuo Jia went to knead the dough and chop the vegetables...
She had prepared everything, but Zhang Yunhuan had not come back yet. She thought about it and went out to the next door. If there was good news, she had to think about her family.
"Sister-in-law." Zhuo Jia shouted from the yard.
The sister-in-law took the children out to play, leaving her eldest sister-in-law alone at home. Well, brother Qiao Anchuan went to work, so the eldest sister-in-law stayed at home to pack up. After all, moving is quite troublesome!
Qian Yulan came out of the main room with a rag and smiled when she saw Zhuo Jia: "Jia Jia is here, what's the matter, do you want to talk to your sister-in-law?"
Although she had not spent much time with this sister-in-law, she still had some understanding of her. She was the type of person who would not visit her unless there was something important to do!
Zhuo Jia nodded. Without wasting any time, she got straight to business. "It's like this, sister-in-law. Yesterday I exchanged some mustard greens from the kids in the brigade. They tasted pretty good. I wanted to ask if you have time to go dig wild vegetables. I can exchange them with you, money is fine too."
Zhuo Jia said the last three words very softly, and you couldn't hear them if you didn't listen carefully.
She was very understanding of her sister-in-law. She was very strict, and she was also always thinking about the best for the children. Even if she was just given a piece of biscuit, she would probably be happy with it.
Qian Yulan, who was about to refuse, was stunned. She looked at Zhuo Jia in disbelief: "Jia Jia, are you sure you are talking about wild vegetables?"
Is it the wild vegetable that tastes very bad but you have to eat it most of the time?
Zhuo Jia nodded and said seriously, "Yes, they are wild vegetables from the mountains, but I want them tender and clean."
That's right, she is so lazy that she doesn't even want to pick up the wild vegetables.
Seeing that Qian Yulan was still silent, Zhuo Jia continued, "Sister-in-law, if you don't want to, I'll find someone else."
Things about making money should never be postponed!
"Yes, yes." Qian Yulan said quickly.
Look for someone else, who else?
The whole team knows that my sister-in-law has big hands. If anyone else knew about this, they would probably rush to do it.
Zhuo Jia smiled. She knew her sister-in-law would agree. She said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, I'll go back first. Just dig up some wild vegetables and bring them to me. The more the better. I have to go to the county tomorrow."
She will harvest some wild vegetables today, but not tomorrow. She will go to the county to visit her friends tomorrow!
Qian Yulan nodded in understanding: "Don't worry, I will definitely not delay you."
Now the whole brigade knows that Jia Jia has a cousin in the county. Although she didn't come to the wedding, she gave her cousin a pair of small leather shoes. Those were small leather shoes worth more than ten yuan. She gave them to her cousin just by saying so. What a good relationship they have.
So she could understand why Jia Jia went to give wild vegetables to her cousin, after all, there were not many things that could be given as gifts in the countryside.
Zhuo Jia guessed what Qian Yulan had imagined and left with a smile. She didn't say anything!
After Zhuo Jia left, Qian Yulan continued to work. As for digging wild vegetables, she could wait until mid-afternoon. It was too early to go now.
Not long after Zhuo Jia returned home, Zhang Yunhuan came back on a bicycle with a piece of meat hanging on the handlebars.
"Hurry, hurry, let's make dumplings now!" Zhang Yunhuan held the meat, parked his bicycle and rushed to the kitchen.
White flour dumplings, white flour dumplings, she has been thinking about them all the way!
Zhuo Jia's mouth twitched. She followed Zhang Yunhuan with amusement, asking him to wash and chop the meat first, while she began to knead the dough and roll out the dumpling wrappers...
The two of them worked together and finished wrapping all the dumplings before twelve o'clock. Obviously, there were more than one hundred or nearly two hundred dumplings, and they definitely could not finish them all.
Zhuo Jia looked up and said, "It's too hot to wait. All the dumplings are ready. Put the leftovers in a lunch box and take them home to heat up in the evening."
The weather is so hot that she doesn’t want to cook dumplings at night!
Zhang Yunhuan swallowed his saliva: "I think it's okay, please hurry up, I can eat two big bowls today."
Since she went to the countryside, she has never eaten dumplings again except for the one time she ate them in a state-owned restaurant!
Okay, Zhuo Jia stopped talking and asked Zhang Yunhuan to light the fire while she went to peel garlic. She was going to make a dipping sauce from the air conditioner, which would taste better!
…
The dumplings were cooked. Zhuo Jia pushed Zhang Yunhuan, who was so useless that he was drooling, aside and directly took out all the dumplings with a basin, otherwise they would rot if left in the pot.
She asked Zhang Yunhuan to bring the dumplings to the main room, and she followed behind with the bowl, chopsticks and dipping sauce. When they arrived at the main room, she first served a bowl to each of them, then found a clean lunch box and packed one for Zhang Yunhuan first. Well, fortunately, there were many lunch boxes at home.
He handed the lunch box to Zhang Yunhuan: "Here, for your dinner, I'll go give a bowl to the sister-in-law next door and my mother-in-law."
Zhang Yunhuan ate without even looking up: "You go, I'll eat first."
Alas, this is also one of the reasons why she doesn’t want to get married. Even if she wants to eat something good, she still has to think about her mother-in-law and her family!
Zhuo Jia didn't care what Zhang Yunhuan was thinking. She directly took two bowls of dumplings to the next door and said that one bowl was for the children, and she asked Xiao Wei to help deliver the other bowl to the nursing home!
The weather was so hot, she didn't want to run for one thing, and for another:
Hurry back to eat!
Qian Yulan had just taken the bowl and had no time to say a word when she saw her generous sister-in-law turn around and go home.
She and Qiao Anshan looked at each other, and finally said, "Forget it, I'll go take it to Mom and Dad. You take the kids and eat first."
But we can’t let Xiaowei go. What if he can’t explain it clearly and his mother-in-law misunderstands him?
Qiao Anshan took the bowl and said, "It's so hot outside, I'll go."
…
Zhuo Jia and Zhang Yunhuan each ate two bowls of dumplings, leaving a full bowl with more than a dozen dumplings left. They couldn't eat any more. Zhuo Jia clutched her stomach and asked, "Want some dumpling soup?"
She wanted to drink, but her stomach was a little full!
Zhang Yunhuan shook his head with difficulty: "I don't want to drink anymore. I can't drink anymore."
You know what, the shepherd's purse dumplings are quite delicious. She felt like they were about to fill her throat and she couldn't drink any of it.
"Then just put it in the pot and drink it when you want." Zhuo Jia thought for a while and said, dumpling soup is always better than boiled water!
Zhang Yunhuan nodded nonchalantly. Then, thinking of something, she looked at Zhuo Jia and said, "Dumplings stuffed with chives and eggs are delicious too."
Zhuo Jia: "..."
Are you thinking about the next meal right after finishing the last one?
After sending off Zhang Yunhuan, who was only thinking about eating, Zhuo Jia went to the kitchen to check on the dumpling soup in the pot. She went straight to the wall and shouted to the other side, "Sister-in-law, can you ask Xiao Wei and the others if they want some dumpling soup?"
Before Qian Yulan could answer, Qiao Wei called out from the next room, "Second Aunt, we want some soup."
"Bring your own bowls." Zhuo Jia shouted back.
To be honest, she is quite satisfied with this wall. No one can be seen, which ensures privacy, but voices can be heard, which makes communication convenient!
Look, how much less distance she has to walk!
Soon Zhuo Jia heard footsteps. She opened the door and saw Xiao Wei running over with his younger brother and sister. When they saw her, the three children smiled at the same time: "Second Aunt."
Their favorite is Second Aunt, and Second Uncle will have to stand aside from now on.
Just as Zhuo Jia was about to lead them to the kitchen, she saw her sister-in-law trotting out. She quickly said, "Sister-in-law, go get some food for the three children. The pot is full of dumpling soup, so help yourself."
It’s half a pot of soup, so you can’t just drink it casually!
Qian Yulan wanted to say something: "..."
She once again witnessed Zhuo Zhiqing's extravagant spending, and at the same time she felt deeply that Chuanzi was marrying above her station!
Zhuo Jia didn't care what others were thinking. She walked back and forth in the yard, rubbing her stomach. She wanted to take a nap, but she was too full and couldn't sleep, so she wanted to digest it quickly.
Soon, the three children each brought out a bowl of dumpling soup. Qiao Wei took a big sip of the soup and smacked his lips. It was so delicious. He looked up and saw Second Aunt walking around. He asked curiously, "Second Aunt, what are you doing?"
As he was speaking, he saw Second Aunt rubbing her belly. He wondered with some confusion, could it be that Second Aunt was pregnant?
Zhuo Jia turned her head and said sadly, "The dumplings at lunch were so delicious, I ate too much!"
There's nothing I can do about it, it's her fault for being so useless!
Qiao Wei: “…”
Overeaten?
In his entire life, he had only overeaten once, and that was when his second uncle and second aunt got married. To be honest, overeating was a bit uncomfortable!
Qian Yulan came out of the kitchen and asked, "Jia Jia, do you have a basin? I'll pour out the soup from the pot and help you clean the pot."
This can be considered as eating and taking at the same time. She feels at ease doing some work. In the afternoon, she went to dig wild vegetables. No matter what Jia Jia gave her, she didn't want it. She couldn't eat the bowl of dumplings at noon for nothing.
Zhuo Jia turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, would you and brother like to drink the dumpling soup? If you do, go home and get a bowl to serve. I don't want any."
Well, she is so smart. In this way, the dumpling soup is gone and someone will clean the pot!
As for feeling embarrassed or something?
Ha, how could she be embarrassed? Why does she want money? Isn't it just to make herself live more comfortably?
If the situation allowed, she would even want to find someone to take care of herself!
With the purchasing group, she has money, and with money, she will work hard to make her life more comfortable, otherwise why would she stay here?
Are you suffering?
Sorry, she doesn't have this hobby!
Seeing that she really didn't want to drink it, Qian Yulan went home to find a basin, poured out the dumpling soup, and then cleaned the pot neatly. Oh, seeing that there was not much water in the bucket, she took out and pressed a bucket of water in it.
"Jia Jia, take a walk for a while and then take a nap. I'll take the kids and leave first. Call me if you need anything." Qian Yulan said while holding the basin.
Zhuo Jia nodded and waved: "Okay, sister-in-law."
After everyone left, Zhuo Jia locked the door from inside, and then...
Keep strolling!
…
After strolling for nearly an hour, Zhuo Jia finally went back to her room to sleep, and when she woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon!
When she opened her eyes, she felt as if she didn't know whether it was morning or night. She had slept for too long!
Zhuo Jia turned over, not wanting to think about it. Sigh, she missed her cell phone. If she had a cell phone now, she could lie on the bed and read novels. And with the purchasing group, she wouldn't have to worry about having no money...
Unfortunately, there is no such thing as having the best of both worlds. If you have money, you always have to give up something else!
Thinking of her money, Zhuo Jia turned over and sat up, digging wild vegetables. She loved digging wild vegetables!
Zhuo Jia, who loves to dig wild vegetables, went to the mountains and strolled for an hour. She didn't dig much wild vegetables, but she exchanged a basket of wild vegetables from a pair of sisters. Well, she also exchanged for biscuits. Now she is getting more and more experienced in exchanging things and is fully equipped!
Carrying a basket of wild vegetables, Zhuo Jia strolled back home again. She still had a batch of wild vegetables to buy!
After returning home, Zhuo Jia poured out the wild vegetables from her backpack and sighed. Oh, there are so many wild vegetables, how long will it take her to clean them up? She really wants to find someone to help her.
Just as Zhuo Jia was thinking this, she heard someone calling her outside. From the voice, it seemed to be her diligent sister-in-law. She remembered that her sister-in-law had squatted down to help her pick shepherd's purse in the morning.
Her eyes lit up instantly and she walked out briskly. Look, help is coming!
Qiao Anqin was holding a basket in her hand. Seeing her, she smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, mother asked me to bring you some vegetables. They are all picked from the vegetable garden. Mother said that if there are no vegetables at home, you can just go and pick them."
There was no sign of her second sister-in-law's vegetable garden yet, so there was definitely no vegetables to eat. However, her second sister-in-law didn't go there to pick them, so her mother had no choice but to let her pick them and send them over.
Zhuo Jia was not interested in the food in the basket, but she was interested in her sister-in-law's free labor, so she took the basket with one hand and held her dear sister-in-law with the other hand: "An Qin, are you okay now? I have something I want to ask you for help."
Since she said that, her dear sister-in-law must be embarrassed to say that she had something to do. Well, I give a thumbs up to her language skills!
Sure enough, Qiao Anqin followed her strength and walked forward: "Second sister-in-law, I'm fine, just tell me what you want me to do."
Her second brother passed away a few days after his wedding, and there were a lot of things to do in the new house. Her second sister-in-law definitely couldn't handle it all by herself, so she would definitely lend a hand if she could.
So Qiao Anqin, who wanted to lend a hand, was pulled all the way into the kitchen. Then, when she saw a pile of shepherd's purse on the ground, she was completely stunned. No, could it be that her second sister-in-law was addicted to eating wild vegetables?
Zhuo Jia said hopefully, "An Qin, please help me pick up the wild vegetables. I'm going to the county to see my cousin tomorrow!"
It’s great to have a cousin in the county. I can always ask her for help no matter what happens!
"Oh, okay." Qiao Anqin nodded quickly when she heard this.
At the same time, she felt relieved. She was scared to death because it turned out to be a gift for someone else. She thought her second sister-in-law wanted to eat so much shepherd's purse.
After figuring it out, Qiao Anqin stopped talking, sat on a small stool and started working, picking shepherd's purse. This job was familiar to her!
Looking at her sister-in-law moving her hands, Zhuo Jia was very happy. She liked her sister-in-law very much now. She started to do it while thinking about her. The sooner she finished, the easier it would be!
…
It was almost six o'clock when the aunt and sister-in-law finally finished picking the shepherd's purse, both of them having back pains from working. The two people who were pounding their waists at the same time looked at each other and thought, "Great, we are in the same boat. Let's take a break and take a walk in the yard!"
Zhuo Jia pounded her waist as she walked towards the main room. After a short while, she poured two cups of malted milk and called out, "An Qin, come here and have some tonic."
She is such a good helper, she must not be allowed to get tired and run away!
Qiao Anqin didn't refuse. She felt that she was so tired that drinking a glass of malted milk would be fine!
She really hates wild vegetables!
After drinking the malted milk, Qiao Anqin washed the cup out, then asked if there was any other work. After confirming that there was no other work, she turned around and left!
After the others left, Zhuo Jia didn't want to move, but the key was that she was still hungry...
Finally, Zhuo Jia heated up the dumplings left over from the morning with water and ate them all. Then she took out two tomatoes from the vegetable basket sent by her sister-in-law and ate them casually!
Around eight o'clock, sister-in-law Qian Yulan also brought the packed wild vegetables, but without waiting for Zhuo Jia to ask what she wanted to exchange, she put down the basket and left.
Zhuo Jia wanted to chase after him, but after thinking about it, she decided not to go. She would wait until she came back from the county tomorrow. What if the supply and marketing cooperative had some defective products?
The most important thing now is of course to quickly exchange the shepherd's purse for money!
Thinking of this, Zhuo Jia immediately put all the shepherd's purse into the warehouse, and then contacted the 'grocer'. It was exactly the same process. The only change was her balance. It was 560 yesterday, but it became 1000 today!
Ahhh, today’s net income is 440, so she asks, besides her, who else could it be, who else!
Don’t say anything more. Tomorrow she will go to the county to make a big purchase and spend money!
…
"What defective product do you want?" Lin Yu asked with a smile while putting away the White Rabbit milk candy.
She thought to herself that there were only a few defective products in their warehouse.
Zhuo Jia said seriously, "I'm not picky. I want whatever I can get."
As long as she has it, no matter what it is, she wants it, as long as she has money!
Lin Yu, who understood what she meant, rolled her eyes at her. She asked someone nearby to help watch the counter and said to Zhuo Jia, "Wait a minute. I'll go tell the manager."
Originally, she could just take people there directly, but she was afraid that Zhuo Jia would be like last time, like a swarm of locusts.
So it’s better to tell the manager in advance. It’s not a big problem. Their managers usually don’t care. It’s okay as long as they know.
Ahem, she’s just afraid that their manager will come to her house!
Zhuo Jia watched Lin Yu enter the manager's office. She moved her lips and said, "Forget it. I'll thank Lin Yu another day."
Lin Yu came out quickly. She nodded to Zhuo Jia and led her to the warehouse. When they got there, she said, "Our manager is very easy to talk to. I told him that my cousin was moving to a new house and needed something, so he asked me to bring you here."
Anyway, the news that her cousin had just gotten married had spread throughout the supply and marketing cooperative!
Zhuo Jia laughed and said, "Don't worry, I understand. I'll invite you to my house someday to improve the food."
She had always remembered this matter, but there was never a suitable time. Now that she had time, she would wait for Lin Yu to have time.
Without wasting any time, Zhuo Jia went straight to the warehouse to look for defective products. She wanted everything: fabrics, towels, soap, enamel pots, thermoses...
As Lin Yu's expression gradually became numb, Zhuo Jia's backpack was also full. She turned her head and asked, "Can you calculate how much it is?"
She, Zhuo Jia, is not short of money!
"Why don't you just carry the warehouse away!" Lin Yu tried to hold back but still couldn't help but said.
Fortunately, she informed the manager in advance, otherwise she would have been found at home again!
Zhuo Jia blinked, suppressed a smile and said, "Look at what you said, I don't have that much money."
She does have the money, but she is afraid of irritating others.
Lin Yu didn't want to say anything. He took the money and wanted to send Zhuo Jia away, but Zhuo Jia didn't want to leave!
Zhuo Jia pulled Lin Yu and whispered, "Cousin, my house is still missing a stove."
Her dear cousin, please help me think of a solution!
