Chapter 137 Telling a Ghost Story
Tears welled up in Erya's eyes, and her little body was suddenly grabbed by a big hand.
"Sleep closer, don't lean against the wall, it's very cold."
As soon as Qin Fangci finished speaking, she pulled Erya over.
Erya let out a soft "oh".
Qin Fangci knew the child was nervous, so she closed her eyes and said, "Er Ya, can you help grandma with the math?"
Erya became even more nervous and whispered, "Grandma, tell me."
"Soybeans cost two cents a pound. One pound of soybeans can produce three pounds of dried tofu. How much does three pounds of dried tofu cost?"
Erya knows this algorithm, and she and her uncle often use this method.
Erya counted on her fingers, "Grandma, it's six coins."
"One pound of soybeans can produce five pounds of tofu pudding. I want to make twenty pounds of tofu pudding. How much will it cost?"
Erya counted on her fingers for Qin Fangci.
The grandmother and grandson had the final say, and Qin Fangci's voice was always gentle, and Erya's nervousness gradually faded away.
Qin Fangci felt sleepy and said to Erya before falling asleep, "Erya, the cost of doing business is not that simple. We also hired workers, and we should also take that part of the cost into account. In addition to the hired workers, we also have our own labor..."
"Okay, that's all for tonight. Let's go to sleep." Qin Fangci yawned loudly and fell asleep.
Erya closed her eyes, stopped her brain from working, and yawned.
The room was very quiet; I could clearly hear my grandmother's breathing and my aunt's smacking of her lips.
Erya no longer felt nervous or uneasy, and fell into a deep sleep close to her grandmother.
The quiet and busy early morning was broken by Li Yulan's scream.
Tell a ghost story...
When I woke up, there was someone at my feet!
San Ya was kicked under the bed by Li Yulan while she screamed.
"Ah!" the little girl screamed, "It hurts so much, it hurts so much."
"Saya?" Li Yulan crawled to the bedside.
San Ya was lying on the ground, with one of her arms twisted and pinned under her small body.
"Saya, what's wrong with you?"
"Don't touch her!"
Qin Fangci held down Mrs. Du and stopped Li Yulan who was about to reach out.
Li Yulan lay on the bed and explained anxiously, "Mom, no, it was Sanya who slept in my bed by herself. I was just scared. I didn't mean to kick her."
Qin Fangci walked in and said, "I know. I was the one who stuffed the person into your bed. You slept so soundly last night that I didn't wake you up."
How do you say that sentence?
Who knows.
If she had known this would happen, she would have asked Erya and Li Yulan to sleep together, and she would sleep with Sanya.
I wish her bed was bigger...
There's no use saying regrets.
Qin Fangci squatted down beside Sanya and asked softly, "Saya, can you still get up? Try to get up by yourself."
Sanya moved with tears in her eyes, trying to get up, "It hurts."
"This hand hurts, right? Then try with the other hand."
San Ya obediently changed her hand and stood up with the help of Qin Fangci.
Qin Fangci gently carried the person out. Mrs. Du was very anxious. "Where is he injured?"
"Don't be impatient. Wait until the child calms down before asking again." Qin Fangci took out a handkerchief to wipe Sanya's tears. "Sanyah, come here, let's see if there's any pain besides this hand?"
San Ya had calmed down by now and felt that her arm was not as painful anymore. She sniffed and her crying gradually stopped.
Qin Fangci helped her move her legs and other arm.
"My left hand is probably dislocated. It's okay, just straighten the bone. Take good care of it, eat more meat and eggs, and it won't be easily dislocated if you fall next time."
Hearing that it was nothing serious, Mrs. Du felt relieved.
Qin Fangci made way and let Mrs. Du come up and touch San Ya.
San Ya tilted her head back and smiled sweetly at Mrs. Du, "Mom, I don't feel any pain anymore. Grandma said I'll be well soon."
Li Yulan put on her clothes and came out, "Sister-in-law, it was me who kicked Sanya. I will pay for her to get her hand treated."
When Li Yulan said this, her heart was bleeding.
This is the money she saved with great difficulty.
"Okay, you pay for the soup and medicine. We have a lot of meat at home these days, so let's make some pig's trotter soup. One for San Ya and one for..."
Wang, who was concerned about her niece who had not yet left the house, waved her hands and said, "Mom, I can't eat pig's trotters stewed with soybeans anymore. I have too much milk and even Sandaner can't finish it."
She recently took Si Ya to secretly feed her several times, which made the little girl embarrassed. She ran away several times when she saw her.
A stinky girl.
Her milk is so oily now that she is reluctant to squeeze it out to feed the pigs.
Qin Fangci glanced at Wang's chest and said, "Then stew one without soybeans and give it to San Ya."
"Lao Er will drive the carriage later. We will go to the city and find a doctor to treat San Ya's hand. We can also visit Xiao Wu while we're there."
"Okay, Mom, I happened to be delivering some dried meat today, so it's time to settle the bill."
Qin Fangci's eyes lit up when she heard the word "money." "Is it time to settle the bill today?"
She had completely forgotten about it.
At this time, the old village chief came with a strange middle-aged man and two young men.
"Bai Shunniang, Bai Shunniang, I've found a well digger for you."
I have to say that the old village chief is very efficient despite his old age.
"Then wait a while. We'll get everything done once we get into town. The eldest daughter, take Yulan and Daya with you to pick up some fresh vegetables. The second daughter, go buy a chicken and kill it. I'll clean it up and take it with me later."
"Santa, sit down and wait for grandma to come back. Don't move your hand yet. Erya, get your sister something to eat. She has a broken hand, so feed her."
"Second brother, come with me."
Qin Fangci brought Li Laoer and the group came to the open space they had seen yesterday.
The well digger narrowed his eyes and asked, "Where do you want to build your yard?"
"Master, could you please tell me how many wells we can dig in this area?"
Everyone looked at Qin Fangci in surprise.
Li Laoer asked what everyone was thinking, "Mom, how many wells do you want to dig?"
Qin Fangci nodded calmly, "If possible, I'd like to take a few more sips later, and it would be convenient to use water."
Li Laoer thought his mother had gone crazy again.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? A workshop has several wells. Aren't you afraid that someone who comes here will accidentally fall into the well after taking a few steps? Isn't this asking for trouble?"
"Who said I dug a well just for a workshop?" Qin Fangci looked at Li Laoer indifferently.
Li Laoer's breathing became tight as he thought of what Yuan had whispered in his ear: "Mom said, work hard and you will get whatever you want."
"Mom?" Li Laoer said, "Do you want to..."
Qin Fangci interrupted Li Laoer and said, "Let the master take a look first."
Li Laoer nodded repeatedly, "Mom, you are right, you are right."
Mom must be thinking about building a big house for our family.
If I could build it like Pan's house, I could hire a bunch of maids to come home, hehehe...
Li Laoer chuckled at the beautiful scene in his mind, and his smile became more and more obscene.
When the well digger heard that they had to dig many wells, although he was doubtful, he still took his apprentices in.
Even if he can't dig several wells, his trip won't be in vain if he can dig one.
