"Sure, it's not like I can't afford to raise them!"
Seeing that she wasn't so angry anymore, Gu Yanbai put his arm around her shoulder and lay down again.
"Who wants you to support them?"
"I have hands and feet, how could I starve to death?" Su Nianxue retorted defiantly.
"Okay, okay, I know you're capable."
"But this land really has to be given away; you can't cultivate that much." Gu Yanbai still insisted on his point of view.
Su Nianxue felt somewhat helpless and lost.
She had been farming with Su Jianguo and the others for years, and now that she was suddenly not farming anymore, she was a little unaccustomed to it.
I don't know what else I can do?
"How about..." Seeing her dejected look, Gu Yanbai's eyes flickered slightly, and he tentatively spoke up.
"Why don't you just tell me?"
"Why don't you continue fiddling with your bean sprouts?"
Your bean sprouting technique is excellent! I tried some, and they were really delicious!
"You want me to sell bean sprouts?" She suddenly jumped out of his arms, looking at him with a surprised expression.
"Yeah, don't you have nothing to do?"
Think about it, every 1st, 4th, and 7th of the month, there's a market day here. You just need to stay home and grow bean sprouts, then take them to town to sell when the market day comes.
If you feel tired, take Yanliu with you; you two can keep each other company!
With something to do, she won't be thinking about farming all the time.
"Will this work?" Su Nianxue had never sold anything before. What if she lost money?
Why can't it work?
Imagine if you could earn three yuan a day, that would be more than twenty yuan a month.
Even now, a regular employee in the city only earns a little over forty yuan a month.
"Doesn't that make a lot?" Gu Yanbai said with a smile, quite interested.
If you calculate it that way, it's really good.
"But what if we can't sell them?" After he said that, she did start to think about it.
If you don't want to farm, this is indeed a good option.
And she's good at this too!
But in business, there are gains and losses. What if you can't sell them?
"Don't worry, they'll definitely sell. I guarantee you won't lose money."
He wrapped his arms around her waist, his eyes gleaming with confidence.
"Do you have any good ideas?" Su Nianxue asked, noticing his confident tone.
"Why don't you give it a try first? If you can't sell it, I'll help you think of something, okay?"
"Anyway, you won't lose out." He looked inscrutable.
Seeing his expression, Su Nianxue, unusually, didn't argue with him.
On the contrary, his words made Su Nianxue feel much more at ease. "Okay, I'll listen to you and give it a try!"
"but……"
Su Nianxue thought for a moment, then continued, "But don't give them all away, can you leave me a piece?"
"I can use it to grow some vegetables or something, okay?"
"Okay, I'll save one for you, the one closest to our house, how about that?"
Gu Yanbai was unusually easy to talk to tonight, which surprised Su Nianxue.
"What are you looking at me for?"
"Does my image suddenly seem much more impressive?" Gu Yanbai curled his lips into a roguish smile.
Alright, this is the Gu Yanbai she knows.
I must have been hallucinating just now to think he had changed.
"What kind of image do you have?" Su Nianxue glanced at him and retorted sarcastically.
"Yeah?
"You think my image is bad, huh?" His roguish smile deepened, and the glint in his eyes made Su Nianxue instinctively feel danger.
She quickly pulled the blanket over her head. "I'm tired, time to sleep!"
Early in the morning, Su Nianxue heard a commotion in the courtyard.
It sounds like... the sound of arguing.
She rubbed her eyes, picked up her watch from the bedside table, and glanced at it. It was only a little past six!
What happened so early this morning?
She quickly dressed and opened the door.
In the courtyard, Grandpa Gu was chasing Gu Yanbai around the millstone with a stick as thick as his arm!
"You brat, you stop right there, or I'll break your legs."
"I'm not stupid. If I stopped, wouldn't I crack your skull open?" Gu Yanbai said casually, standing on the other side of the millstone.
"Hey, you little brat, you've got some nerve now, daring to disregard my words."
If I had known you would be this bad, I should have thrown you away.
"Did I raise you all these years just to annoy me?"
Grandpa Gu was panting heavily, using the cane in his hand as a crutch, putting all his weight on it.
Under the eaves, Gu Yanliu crossed his arms, grinned, and watched the commotion with amusement.
Su Nianxue walked over to Gu Yanliu and asked, "What happened? Why did Grandpa beat him?"
"Sister-in-law, you've forgotten."
Didn't Grandpa say a couple of days ago that he'd teach my brother a lesson when he got back?
"Look, they're tidying it up right now!" Gu Yanliu pouted, a smug look on her face.
Su Nianxue's lips twitched a few times. So, the old man is serious?
But judging from the situation, he can't really deal with him.
Even with his speed, he couldn't catch up!
It wouldn't be good if I fell and hurt myself again.
She went over and helped Grandpa Gu up. "Grandpa, let's not be angry anymore."
"We adults are magnanimous, let him off this time, okay?"
When Grandpa Gu saw her, the anger on his face immediately disappeared, replaced by a smile.
“Nianxue, I’m telling you, don’t speak up for him.”
