Chapter 485: The Enthusiasm of the Sisters-in-law Almost Made Her Unbearable
Song Shiwei patted the back of her hand soothingly and asked, "Then uncle and aunt, can you help us find a few locals to go with us? I can pay. Anyone who is willing to take us there and send us to the place, I will give 20 yuan each! I want to find five people to go with us!"
Hearing her words, Old Man Wang and his family's eyes lit up?
"How much did you say? Twenty dollars?"
Old Man Wang’s sons were so excited that they tried desperately to say something, but they didn’t know how to say it!
The daughters-in-law couldn't hold back any more and shouted, "Hey, sister, if that's the case, why are you looking for someone else? It just so happens that you're not busy these days, and your brothers are free at home, so they can all go with you!"
"That's right. Not only my husband, but my eldest son is also sixteen years old. Look at him, he's very strong. He can also accompany you!"
"And ours!"
As she spoke, she poked her man and signaled him with her eyes: "You agree, right?"
Her man nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, that's right!"
That’s twenty dollars. How many trips of food would his father have to make to earn back that twenty dollars?
Just follow them back and forth to Kadazi Mountain, it’s not like they haven’t been there before! It may be difficult for outsiders, but for the locals, it is commonplace!
Old man Wang’s wife was also very happy.
"Yeah, let your brothers and nephews accompany you. It's safer to go with your family members, since we're just looking for others. Besides, our eldest and second oldest brothers have been to Kadazi Mountain many times. They know the situation in the mountains and know where they can go and where they can't. Don't you think so, his father?"
Old man Wang was a little embarrassed when he was called out. He felt that his family had taken advantage of him.
But after all, if you don’t make money when you can, you’d be a bastard!
Who would have a problem with money?
Nodding quickly: "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But he still felt bad.
"Well, they are all relatives, just give ten dollars to each person!"
As soon as he said this, Song Shiwei clearly saw the disappointed expressions on the faces of his daughters-in-law.
He laughed and said, "No, no, no, uncle. I'm so happy that you guys and nephews are going with you. Just like you said, we're family, so we're safe! Besides, how can I give twenty dollars to a stranger and ten dollars to my own people? You guys have worked hard, and I'll give you five dollars more when we get there! Twenty-five dollars a person!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Old Man Wang's sons and daughters-in-law almost jumped up with excitement.
Old man Wang wanted to say something but was stopped by Song Zhiyong.
"Brother, don't refuse! We are happier than anyone else to have our children follow us! Money is nothing. Aren't our lives worth this money? Let the children be happy too. With this money, we can buy them some food and drinks. It's also a token of our appreciation!"
Song Shiwei also thought so. She was truly grateful to Old Man Wang for taking good care of them along the way!
Now that his son can follow him, I feel much more at ease than having someone outside!
If someone outside has bad intentions, it is possible that they will rob or kill you on the way.
But after her observation just now, she found that Old Man Wang and his family were all down-to-earth people.
Although his daughters-in-law are a bit smarter, they only think about their own families.
Before, she also deliberately made up a story that she was a distant relative of Yang's wife.
After all, in this valley, the more safety you can have, the safer you are.
People’s hearts are hidden, so it’s better to be cautious.
So, she had deliberately mentioned this in front of Old Man Wang's son and daughter-in-law just now, just to see if the older brothers of the Wang family could give them a helping hand.
Now that they are willing, she is naturally happy.
"Oh, uncle, since the big brothers are willing, then it's settled! We will set out early tomorrow morning and try to go early and come back early!"
The sisters-in-law of the Wang family were immediately overjoyed, and even old man Wang’s wife was extremely happy.
He stood up and went to the kitchen. After a while, he brought out a bowl of egg and sugar water.
Hand it to Xinxin.
"Come here, kid. There's nothing good to offer in our mountain. I'll give you this egg syrup!"
Xinxin suddenly felt a little embarrassed, especially when she saw the envious eyes of the children around her.
The little girl of the Wang family pursed her lips, pulled her sleeve and said enviously: "Sister, this egg was just laid today. Usually my grandma is reluctant to eat it and sells it for money. I can only taste some brown sugar secretly during the Chinese New Year or when my sisters-in-law are in confinement. My grandma treasures it! Come on, eat it, and let me smell it too!"
When Xinxin heard this, she felt even worse.
For their family, eggs were almost always available. Every morning, their grandmother would fry two for each of them.
Meat is available every day.
I didn’t expect that in a place like this, these children couldn’t even eat an egg.
He was adopted by Zhou Tingyue when he was a child. He had a salary and they never lacked food.
When he was busy, he let them eat in the cafeteria.
Eggs are affordable, and since my mother came along, there has been no shortage of them.
They can be said to have grown up in a honey pot.
Now she suddenly realized how difficult it is for children in mountainous areas, and she seemed to understand something in an instant.
Not everyone can afford to eat and wear clothes. They cherish everything in front of them more than anyone else, but they should actually cherish their current life more.
Song Shiwei and Zhou Tingyue created a good life for them, but their parents will grow old one day. As children, they should study hard and work hard so that they can rely on their own abilities to give their parents a good life in the future.
During this time, Song Shiwei had been paying attention to Xinxin's expression. He saw her suddenly take the eggs out of the bowl, and then pour the sugar water into the bowls of several children one by one.
“Let’s eat together!”
When the kids saw the brown sugar water in their bowls, they were so happy that they just scooped it up and drank it!
This made Old Man Wang's wife laugh and scold: "Hey, you little bastards, why did you drink the sugar water!"
But Xinxin clearly noticed that all the sisters-in-law were also laughing.
She picked up the egg from the bowl and ate it carefully.
I don’t know why, this egg is just an ordinary egg, but it suddenly seems to become a little sweeter.
The meal was a joyful one.
The two rooms for them at night were specially vacated by the Wang family. The Wang family's daughter-in-law probably wanted to thank them for giving twenty-five yuan each, so she brought two extra mattresses to help them spread out on the clean mattresses.
They said they were worried that the bed was too hard and they couldn't get used to it.
Song Shiwei smiled and said no, he was used to living there.
But the enthusiasm of her sisters-in-law almost made her unable to bear it.
