After the Ye family encountered the accident, their life went from heaven to hell.
The eldest sister-in-law could not bear the harassment from the second son of the Lu family, Lu Haobin, and was also splashed with dirty water and pointed at by others. She suffered an emotional breakdown and jumped into the river and died while holding her little niece who was only a few months old.
Ye Xiaojiao also cut her face, which temporarily brought her a moment of peace.
After the eldest nephew accidentally learned the truth about the death of his mother and sister, he went to seek revenge on the Lu family!
He was not a brainless person. He had dug a trap, and the unsuspecting Lu Er fell into it and was stabbed in the leg by the iron spike hidden underneath.
Unfortunately, the nephew was still too young, and the trap was not deep enough, allowing the tall and strong Lu Haobin to climb up...
At that time, Ye Xiaojiao had no idea about this and just thought that he went to the river to fish again to make food for his family.
But the person never came back, so I panicked and looked for him everywhere.
As a result, my nephew seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. The whole village helped to look for him, but they still couldn't find even a trace of him!
This really made Ye Xiaojiao anxious, and she continued looking without eating or sleeping.
but,
It was as if my nephew had disappeared from the face of the earth and had been missing for half a month.
The kindhearted villagers could only come to comfort Ye Xiaojiao, and they couldn't help but wonder if she was eaten by wolves after sneaking into the mountains.
Ye Xiaojiao didn't want to believe this fact and still stubbornly chose to go find someone.
Whenever she had time, she would go looking for him, searching every inch of the mountain, but every time she came back with a glimmer of hope, she would end up with endless disappointment.
It was not until half a year later that she learned some clues from Lu Xiaoquan. Later, the two of them went to dig together and saw the little guy who was buried alive.
At that moment, endless grief burst out. Ye Xiaojiao hugged her nephew's body and cried until her heart was dizzy.
But what’s the use?
She is so stupid!
During that time, I was only focused on looking for someone and didn't notice that Lu Haobin had a broken leg.
If any clues could have been discovered at that time, it would not have been concealed until now.
Maybe, she can still save people in time, and still have a breath left...
sorry…
"Aunt? What's wrong with you, little aunt?"
The voice of the boy who just turned nine years old awakened Ye Xiaojiao and pulled her out of the endless sad memories that were like a nightmare.
Ye Xiaojiao came back to her senses and subconsciously grabbed her nephew's hand. Tears could not help but fall down, and she kept shouting: I'm sorry...
Little Ye Hao was stunned and panicked for a moment, and hurriedly used his chubby little hands to wipe his aunt's tears.
When Ye Kuotian, Ye Yuan and others came over, they saw their daughter (sister) crying, and their faces immediately turned dark.
Ye Yuan was even about to pick up his son and give him a good beating, but fortunately Ye Xiaojiao quickly stopped him.
"Brother, what are you doing? Xiaohao is helping me wipe my tears. There is sand in my eyes."
"real?"
Ye Yuan looked at his son suspiciously.
The poor little guy was completely confused, as if the pot had fallen from the sky.
Ye Xiaojiao immediately protected the person behind her and snorted, "Why, you don't believe me anymore?"
Ye Yuan's momentum weakened instantly, but he still took the opportunity to warn his two sons: "No one is allowed to make aunt angry, do you hear me?"
The two little ones: “…” You’ve said it eight hundred times!
Ye Xiaojiao glared at her brother again and asked, "Why are you threatening me?"
She quickly took out some candy from her pocket and gave a handful to each of her two nephews, while also comforting them in a soft voice.
The two little ones seemed to have found someone to rely on. After taking the candies, they made faces at their father, and then ran away in a flash for fear of being beaten.
Ye Yuan: “…”
The Ye family father and son came over to help carry the finished handmade soaps.
Plastic packaging was not yet popular in those days, so Ye Xiaojiao wrapped the things in waterproof oilcloth paper and then stacked them neatly.
After half a month of hard work, I have made almost 500 bars of soap in total.
Today they are going to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county to sell them. If they sell well, they can come back and expand.
Ye Kuotian was a rough man who didn't know much about these things, so he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
Ye Xiaojiao smiled and said, "Don't worry."
These days, daily necessities are in short supply throughout China, especially things like this, which are in short supply.
If that doesn't work, then you can go to the black market.
If it weren't for the fact that it is still a collective economy, Ye Xiaojiao would have wanted to set up a stall in the early stage and open a store to sell the goods later, and she would definitely make a lot of money!
Soon, the group arrived at the gate of the county supply and marketing cooperative.
Ye Xiaojiao and her companions came as a group this time. Due to Ye Kuotian's status as the branch secretary, the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative came directly to receive them.
After looking at the products, Manager Hu's eyes lit up.
"This, this is really made by your members themselves?"
Supplies are hard to come by right now, and the good stuff has been divided up by the big cities. To put it bluntly, only some scraps can get to remote little places like theirs.
They can hardly get a few bars of soap of this quality!
Ye Xiaojiao smiled and nodded:
"He is an old craftsman in our commune. He taught us how to make it. It is the result of the joint efforts of all members. Manager, can you take this batch of goods?"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
If it were an ordinary commune coming to sell something, Manager Hu would inevitably take the opportunity to belittle the other party and lower the price.
But at this moment, he couldn't care too much, for fear that if he didn't agree, the people from Xiangyang Commune would directly take the goods to the next county or directly to the province!
"Okay, then you give me a price! But these things of ours are all made from top-quality raw materials, and each one requires a lot of effort.
Also, look at the quality, the edges are clear, the thickness is moderate, even if it is cut by machine, it will not be more than this, right?"
When Director Hu heard this, he understood what Ye Xiaojiao meant and couldn't help but laugh secretly.
I originally thought that the people who said this would be the adults who were accompanying us, but I didn't expect it to be this little girl, who was quite eloquent.
Finally, after some tug-of-war and bargaining, the supply and marketing cooperative agreed to take the goods at a price of 0.30 yuan per piece.
This made Director Hu very sad.
All the goods they had been transporting were from Shanghai, and after taking all the costs into account, the total cost here was only 0.25 yuan!
You know, the selling price at the supply and marketing cooperative is only 50 cents!
Director Hu had the urge to slap himself in the face. He was too careless. Who could have thought that this little girl would bargain so fiercely!
30 cents a piece, 500 pieces of soap in total, totaling 150 yuan, paid on the spot.
After actually getting the money, Ye Kuotian and others were shocked!
Really, is it really possible?
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, the few of them felt as if they were walking on cotton, floating in the air.
However, they didn’t know that at this moment, two people were walking over from the opposite side. After seeing Ye Xiaojiao, they were stunned at first, and then they walked over quickly with joy on their faces!
"benefactor!"
