Chapter 166: Child Bride She is Happy and Carefree
"If I can't hold on for three days, I won't mention this again."
In order to reassure her family, Lin Wanwan had to take another step back.
"How about I ask grandpa or grandma to accompany me first, just for three days. Just give me three days to prove myself, okay?"
Looking at Lin Wanwan's persistent expression, An Siyuan lowered his head in thought, and Liu Xiaoyan did not speak for a while.
They knew that things had come to this point, and if they refused directly, their daughter-in-law would definitely feel uncomfortable.
But if they really let her sell water, the couple would feel uneasy.
"How about this, daughter-in-law, you can take three days to accompany your daughter-in-law to set up a stall to sell water."
"The weeds in the field have been mostly removed anyway, and I can finish the rest by myself."
An Siyuan thought it through clearly. His mother was old. Not to mention whether she could accompany him to sell water, she couldn't bear the journey back and forth.
If you can't finish the work in the fields, you can do it slowly, but you must never let anything happen to your family again.
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."
"But let's make it clear that if it doesn't work out, you're not allowed to have such thoughts again."
Liu Xiaoyan thought about the remaining work in the fields and nodded in agreement.
With the consent of An Siyuan and Liu Xiaoyan, Lin Wanwan began to prepare.
She found a few of the better bowls in the house and cleaned the teapot inside and out.
I packed up the various types of tea that I had produced during this period and took a portion of each.
Finally, I thought, since I have already set up a stall, it would be boring to just sell water.
So he went to the utility room and rummaged around, and found some scrap metal.
These are all broken and discarded kitchen knives, farm tools, and iron pots and other things.
Lin Wanwan took them and went to the blacksmith's house in the village.
She gave the blacksmith a few coins and asked him to melt it down and beat it into a piece of iron sheet.
This piece of iron sheet is round in shape, with the corners slightly curled up.
But the whole surface is flat.
If people in later generations saw it, they might know the purpose of this piece of iron sheet.
Other things cannot be made for the time being. After all, the weather is hot now. If they are made too early, they will be spoiled by tomorrow.
Early the next morning, before daybreak, Lin Wanwan got up early.
She packed up the pots and pans that she had washed yesterday and put them in her backpack.
He also took the frying pan he had gotten from the blacksmith, and went to the vegetable garden to get some green vegetables and onions.
Put the chili sauce Liu Xiaoyan made last night into the bamboo tube.
By the time Liu Xiaoyan finished cleaning up, Lin Wanwan had also finished her work.
"Daughter-in-law, why don't you bring water when you go to sell it?"
Liu Xiaoyan looked at Lin Wanwan. She had brought a lot of things with her, and a big backpack could hardly hold them all.
A basket was also prepared for her, filled with various seasonal vegetables.
But she brought all the other things, why didn’t I see her carrying any water?
"Just bring two buckets. I heard there's a spring on the mountain near the ferry. I'll go get some water from it."
In fact, using spring water is just an excuse. Anyway, Lin Wanwan has space, and she can store a lot of water in one trip.
At that time, just carry Liu Xiaoyan on your back and pretend to be carrying spring water.
"You two should go slowly on the road. If you can't make it, come back quickly and don't get into conflict with others."
An Siyuan also got up early. Normally, they would not be awake at this time.
But today his daughter-in-law and his wife were going to the ferry to set up a stall to sell water, and he was so nervous that he couldn't sleep well.
An Siyuan spent most of the night with his eyes open. He finally fell asleep in the morning, but was immediately awakened by the noise outside.
"Don't worry, Dad. I will take good care of Mom!"
Lin Wanwan carried a backpack and a bucket of water and went out with Liu Xiaoyan.
By the time we arrived at the ferry, it was already daybreak.
Workers were unloading goods at the ferry. It seemed that these guys got up really early.
The working people really have a hard life. They do the most tiring work, get the lowest wages, and have to get up early and go to bed late, day and night.
"Okay, let's set up the stall here!"
"There should be no one here on weekdays. If we set up a stall here, people at the ferry will see us while not hindering traffic on the road."
Lin Wanwan put the backpack on a piece of open space, took out a sickle, and cut the tall weeds.
"Oh, Wanwan, it seems we forgot to bring a table when selling tea!"
When she got here, Liu Xiaoyan remembered that a tea stall should at least have a table and chairs.
People who buy water can drink it while standing, but they can't stand in the open space all the time.
"Don't worry, Mom. I'll find a way."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanwan put down her sickle and walked towards a nearby village.
Where Liu Xiaoyan couldn't see, she took out two worn tables and several benches from the space.
Then they stacked them up and moved them back.
"Look, Mom, I got it, didn't I?"
"This broken table and bench, I'll just reinforce it with some nails later. There's no need to put it away. Even a beggar wouldn't even look at it!"
Lin Wanwan put the table in place and placed a bench next to it.
Then he carried the bucket and walked towards the ferry not far away.
After a while, he brought back two buckets of water.
"Mom, please clean the tables and chairs first, and I'll cut the grass."
Lin Wanwan handed the bucket to Liu Xiaoyan and cleaned up the place herself.
After the venue was thoroughly cleaned, Liu Xiaoyan also cleaned the tables and chairs.
"Okay, mother, you take a rest first, and I'll take care of the rest."
Lin Wanwan took out a small package from her backpack, which contained some nails.
Then the table and benches were restrung where they needed reinforcement.
Place one table near the front and the other table further in.
Put the things you brought on the table inside, and they will make tea here. Those who want to drink tea can use the table in front or drink it while standing.
There are plenty of big rocks on the roadside anyway, so she can just move a few back later.
The people at the ferry had already seen two people busying around here. Because Lin Wanwan was dressed as a boy, those people thought it was a boy.
"Mom, I'm going to fetch two buckets of mountain spring water. You sit here and rest for a while."
Although Liu Xiaoyan has been busy following Lin Wanwan, this is her first time doing business.
In the past, the most I could do was go to the town to sell eggs. There were special purchasing points there, and I didn’t have to deal with anyone at all.
Although Liu Xiaoyan is a cheerful and generous person, she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed at this moment.
"Then come back quickly and run away if you encounter danger, okay?"
No matter how worried Liu Xiaoyan was, someone still had to watch over the stall.
Fortunately, Lin Wanwan was very fast, and with the help of "Run, Little Potato", she quickly brought back two buckets of water.
