"My appearance has been described by experts as a blessing. Villagers will basically stop making things difficult for our family. But before that, will mother and Gao Miao be bullied? Will the villagers or ancestors help us like they are doing now?"

These words simply shocked Xie's soul.

Before? Before Gao Zhi appeared?

That was the exact opposite of what is happening now.

The villagers might feel pity and sympathy for the mother and daughter, but they are not afraid of offending Gao Acai's family and stand up to help them.

Almost none!

Gao Zhi knew the result when he saw Xie's expression.

"Just saying I'm a lucky kid is not a long-term solution. We must unite the whole village. To be realistic, people are willing to do things for others because they have what you want and are related to your interests.

String our purses together with their purses.

If one day someone wants to take our money and deal with us, do you think the villagers will agree?"

Gao Zhi stopped here and said no more.

I've said too much and I'm thirsty!

Xie understood, understood everything!

She asked humbly, "Jiaojiao, can we just sell the braised pork and dried plum meat pies to everyone? There are so many people in the village, and this little bit of meat is not much to sell to them."

Gao Zhi knew that Xie had figured it out.

"I still remember a lot of delicious food. I'll tell my mom about it later. She'll prepare the ingredients and try to make it. Once it's done, she can try to sell it."

She also made a point of observing people's vegetable baskets today.

Things from the food stalls around.

Get a general understanding of the eating habits of people here.

Xie listened and felt relieved.

She would never be reluctant to give up this business again.

"Jiaojiao, there are a lot of people in our village, so can we think of more ways to make money and then do it together with the villagers?"

The more they can influence the villagers' purse strings, the more they will protect them.

Everyone has their own agenda, and no one suffers a loss.

"Sure! Mom, this is exactly what I was thinking. Don't worry! Take your time, one step at a time, and our lives will only get better and better."

Xie didn't know, but Gao Zhi heard Gao Miao talking to himself about a lot of things about Gao Acai's family.

Although it has been calm for a year, Gao Miao said he was worried that this was just the calm before the storm.

Gao Zhi trusts Gao Miao, just as Gao Miao trusts her unconditionally!

Gao Miao was afraid that something might happen, and that was definitely not just a casual remark.

If Gao Miao was really reborn, then his worries would be more serious.

Seeing Gao Zhi touching his chin as if he was thinking about something, Mrs. Xie stopped disturbing him and concentrated on driving the ox cart.

…

Gao Miao and Gao Yunting both went to study at Yuanshan Academy. The news spread in the village that morning. Gao Acai's family also knew about it.

The happiest people to hear the news were their family.

Without Gao Miao around, it would be easier for them to deal with Xie Xianglan.

Xie Xianglan is going to town to do business. Who knows what they will do on the way?

When Mrs. Xie returned home, she went to the kitchen to prepare lunch for the mother and daughter.

Sitting under the high eaves, there is nothing I can do.

Suddenly seeing the rabbit in the cage, she walked over and took some vegetables from the basket beside to feed the rabbit.

A year ago, Gao Miao brought back two white rabbits from the mountains, one male and one female. The female was pregnant at the time, so Xie kept them. In the past year, she has had many litters of rabbits.

The little rabbits from the first litter have all become mothers.

There are more and more rabbits at home.

The rabbit's hair can be cut and collected to sell. If you eat rabbit meat, the rabbit fur can be sold by the piece.

The rabbits they have are all pure white, without any other colors, and their fur is very cheap.

Xie is now addicted to raising rabbits.

Gao Zhi was feeding the rabbits when he suddenly had an idea.

Organize the whole village to raise rabbits.

They can sell the fur, but she wants the rabbit meat!

Whether it is cured rabbit, spicy or roasted whole rabbit, or braised rabbit head, they are all delicacies.

Gao Zhi thought of the delicious food and slurped his saliva a few times.

The rabbit looked at her and suddenly became a little panicked for some reason, and stopped eating the vegetables.

Gao Zhi's mind was full of all the delicious foods that could be made with rabbit meat. She threw the vegetables in and rushed to the kitchen to find Xie, and couldn't wait to talk about her great project of raising rabbits.

When Xie heard this, he agreed!

Rabbits are really easy to raise.

Moreover, her family now has a lot of female rabbits that can be adopted and bred by villagers.

From now on, there will be more and more rabbits in every household in the village.

"Okay! Let's go to our ancestor's house after dinner. Let's talk to our ancestor about this first. Besides, Gao Miao is not at home, and I can't handle it alone. I plan to ask your aunt Li Mei to come to work.

Twenty cents a day, is that okay with you?"

At present, all that was needed was to pick up the pig heads and wash the pig offal, and let Li Mei come to help in the afternoon, so Xie only paid her twenty cents a day.

Before Xie knew it, she no longer treated Gao Zhi as a little kid.

Hearing this, Gao Zhi was particularly happy.

Xie finally figured it out and no longer felt bad about the money.

"Of course! In the future, when we do other things, we will ask more people to help."

Speaking of hiring people to do things.

Gao Zhi felt that there were many things to do and he could roll up his sleeves and get to work.

"Then let's eat."

"eat!"

After dinner, Xie locked the gate and carried Gao Zhi to the village chief's house.

She did not beat around the bush. When Xie discussed with the old ancestor, she specially called Li Mei over, "Sister, my Xiao Miao has gone to the academy, and I can't handle the housework by myself.

I would like to ask you to come over every afternoon to help me process the pig heads and offal. I will pay you twenty cents a day.

Do you think it’s okay?

If the wages are not suitable, we can still negotiate."

Li Mei was shocked.

How can it be inappropriate to pay twenty cents for half a day? If there is anything inappropriate, then it is inappropriate to calculate the wages.

She went to help, it was just a piece of cake.

It would be impolite to calculate wages.

Over the past year or so, the two families have become close, and Li Mei and Xie have become good sisters.

Li Mei shook her head. "Sister-in-law, it would be too polite to charge you for our friendship. I told my mother this morning that I will help you this afternoon."

My mother nodded when she heard it and praised me for being thoughtful.

Sister-in-law, I'll go help.

No wages required!"

Xie has to support the family alone, and Gao Miao also has to go to the academy, so there are many places to spend money.

She can't ask for wages.

Xie felt warmed by what she heard, but she still insisted.

"Sister, please listen to what I have to say first."

Li Mei nodded.

Mrs. Xie: "I know what kind of relationship we have, and I am grateful. But friendship is friendship, and we sisters have to settle accounts. This is not a one-day or two-day thing, it is something we have to do every day.

It’s half a day now, and it may be a day later.

However, I will ask for the wages when I have to work for a day later."

After saying that, Xie looked at the ancestor.

"Grandfather, next, I have something to discuss with you, and I want to hear your opinion."

Gao Zhi urged, "Mom, please tell me! The ancestors want to hear it."

Hearing this, the old ancestor burst out laughing.

This little guy is still the master of his own business.
