We also sell fried locusts. The purpose is not to make money, but to make people no longer afraid of locusts and no longer be afraid of the tiny locusts.
On the Li side.
Since their home and the village chief's home were quite far from each other, she was worried that it would delay her daughter's work, so she tried to walk as fast as possible even though she was weak.
But what she didn't expect was that before she had walked far, she ran into the village chief's aunt and her daughter-in-law Tonghua.
He quickly walked up to her and politely asked, "Good morning, Auntie. Where are you going? I was just about to go to your house."
"morning."
When the village head's wife heard that Li wanted to go to her house, she asked in confusion: "Go to my house? Miss Yue didn't tell you that she wanted me to go to your house to help."
"Ah! Yueyue didn't say anything. It's just that many villagers came to our house, all bringing locusts to sell."
"Auntie, you know I don't have a scale at home. Yueyue asked me to borrow a scale from your house, as well as some writing brushes, inkstone, and paper, saying she would use it for accounting."
"Oh, what do I think of it? I thought about it when I woke up this morning. I have a reputation, so you don't have to come to my house."
Mrs. Li was talking to the village head's wife and didn't notice that her aunt was wearing a scale.
Seeing that there really was a scale, he followed the village head's wife's words and said, "Auntie, let's go quickly, everyone is waiting."
"Really? I thought I got up early enough, but I didn't expect so many people to be waiting here before daybreak. It seems the villagers did a lot of arrests yesterday."
"Yes!" Li responded.
…
After a while, Li and the village chief's wife arrived at the Li family together.
"Look, the borrower is here."
Before Mrs. Li and the village chief's wife arrived at the door, a sharp-eyed villager spotted them.
Someone thought the two of them were walking too slowly, so he ran over, took the scale from the village head's wife, said thank you, and turned and ran away.
When the village chief's wife saw this scene, she felt a little sad, but also a little happy. Anyway, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
But one thing is true, she is genuinely happy for the villagers and wants them to live a good life.
In this way, my wife won’t have to worry every day, and the food at home won’t have to be taken away by the old man to support those people in the village who don’t have enough to eat.
In this way, my family's life will be easier and my son and daughter-in-law won't have to work so hard.
Especially the second son's wife, her health has not been very good since she gave birth to Duoduo. She is rather weak. She should eat more good food to replenish herself. Maybe in two generations she will have a grandson.
Thinking of this, the village head's wife's wrinkled face beamed with joy, and she walked faster and faster, leaving Li behind.
When Mrs. Li heard the village head's wife say that her daughter asked her to come and help, she knew that her daughter was worried about her and was too busy.
She originally thought that this was not a tiring task, but when she saw so many people queuing up, she knew that someone had to weigh the items and do the billing.
After finishing these, I also need to process the soybeans and make fried snacks for my daughter to take to the town to sell.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li quickened her pace unconsciously. She had to go home quickly to help her daughter and not let her get tired.
Now it seems that my daughter is not only my own treasure, but also the hope of the whole village, and the hope that can bring more income to the village.
No matter how active Li's thoughts were, the Li family's yard had already started to collect locusts.
