Chapter 388 She really wanted to see the outside world like them
Compared with working hard and diligently, what Shen Qing said is the most important thing if you want to live a good life.
Otherwise, it would be useless even if she was just an old ox that ate grass and only knew how to work. Her husband's family with bad character would still be dissatisfied and would still find fault with her.
If she chooses the right person, her efforts will be meaningful and even rewarding.
After being thanked, Shen Qing accepted it without hesitation and said, "We should not beautify the road we have not walked, and we don't need to worry too much about the future. We should take one step at a time and walk steadily now.
This time when I go to the capital, I plan to bring Dafu with me. It's natural to have more contact with him when we're away from home. You should observe carefully. If he's good, we can talk about marriage when he comes back. If not, we can keep our distance and break up after we come back."
Whether it is good or not, whether they are compatible or not, you will know after going on a trip. Besides, this is not a trip, it is much more difficult than a trip!
Jiang Yu only understood at this moment that Shen Qing chose to ask her today because he had thought of the future path for her.
She paved the way for her to go.
*
Most of the family members are going out, and just preparing the things for the trip is a huge project.
Shen Qing knows very well how inconvenient it is to go out these days!
However, Guan Lijiangyu was in high spirits and didn't feel any trouble at all.
The two prepared various foods, mostly dry ones as the weather was getting hotter. Fortunately, they had escaped during a hot summer before, so they had a lot of experience.
Jiang Xiangbei was keeping an eye on the goods everywhere, inspecting them, checking the account books, making dispatches, and also connecting with the sugar factory from time to time.
Jiang Xiangxi, as he did every time he went out, personally and carefully checked the bearings, wheels, carriage planks, etc. of each vehicle. Guan the carpenter did not do the work behind his back, and would take the initiative to teach him the skills that were not passed on to others. If he found a small problem, he would solve it immediately. If there was a big problem, he would go to his father-in-law.
Shen Qing's work is diverse and messy, too many to count.
From the time and place to plant medicinal herbs in the mountains, to the dredging and widening of the river, from large matters such as cargo to small matters such as how many barricades to make and how long it will take to complete, they would ask her opinion on everything.
As the time for going out approached, the women in the village came to see Shen Qing more and more frequently.
Liu Cuihua handed over a large basket of flatbreads and said reluctantly, "Shen Qing, these are the flatbreads I baked. They are very dry. I have tried them for three months and they will not go bad! You can take them out and eat them for sure.
It’s also easy to eat. If you have hot water or soup, you can break it up and soak it in. If you don’t have hot water, you can just chew it hard and it will have a hint of sweetness.”
Shen Qing looked at the large basket of white flour cakes and felt a little sorry for the Lei family!
The Lei family can hunt and eat meat often, but they only eat white flour and rice a few times. This basket was probably exchanged for what the villagers gave them before. They were reluctant to eat it and saved it, so they gave so much to him all at once!
Wang Cui handed over a basket of duck eggs. "These are salted duck eggs. I cracked two of them and they were juicy. You can take them with you. They can be a side dish when you stay overnight in the wilderness."
Zheng Hui said, "I made pork jerky. You taught me how to make it before, and it's really delicious! We were on the road for several months last year, and I know it was tough, so you brought some to nourish your body."
Hong Hehua said, "My mother-in-law works at the sugar mill and asked me to bring some malt sugar over. It's ordinary. Although it's not as delicious as sesame candy or milk candy, it's easy to carry and won't melt on the way. Sister-in-law, you can have some."
.....
Shen Qing discovered that everyone had sent their best things!
I usually don’t want to eat something at home, but I am willing to give it to her.
"Have you forgotten? A trip to the capital only takes about twelve days, and there are cities to be encountered along the way. This isn't like last year's refugee situation where we had no money or energy but still had to hurry on. We could only keep walking, and wouldn't even stay in a city.
Now that I don't have to travel any further and I have money, I'll naturally stay in any city I come across. If I stay, won't I be able to replenish my supplies? Don't worry, you can rest assured!"
Zheng Huihong and Hehua wanted to say that they were not at all reassured.
If possible, they would rather let their husbands go instead of Shen Qing!
After all, the village can function without their husbands, and it will not affect the better operation, but without Shen Qing, how will the village survive in the future?
Can they still live a good life?
"Shen Qing, do you have to go? Can't you let someone go in your place?" Xu Hongmei endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but ask.
Hong Hehua was afraid that Shen Qing would be embarrassed, so she tried to persuade her: "Fifth Aunt, maybe the eldest sister-in-law doesn't want to go out either, let's not make her feel bad."
"In fact, the village has been put on the right track. It doesn't matter whether I am here or not. It will not affect the operation of the workshops. Let me put it this way, the people in charge of food and cleaning in the workshops are much more important than me!" Shen Qing joked.
After all, the boss could be away for ten days or half a month, and the workshop could continue to operate without being affected, and people would not even notice that the boss was gone;
But the person who cooks can’t be absent for a meal, and the person who cleans can’t do anything if he’s not there for a day!
"Besides, the capital is a new market that needs to be developed. I am more needed there. We can't just stick to the livelihoods in the village. We need to create more."
Only by doing more right things can she continue to open various categories in the mall!
Liu Cuihua wanted to say that the village needed her as much as the capital, but she was afraid that she would disrupt Shen Qing's plan, so she swallowed her words back.
The other women felt distressed: "It must be so hard to go all the way to the capital, especially for a woman like you. It would be much better to live a comfortable life behind closed doors."
Last year, I walked on the road until my feet were covered with blisters. I rubbed them open and continued walking despite the excruciating pain.
The sun was blazing, and my clothes were soaked with sweat again and again, but I couldn't stop.
With the whole family, this child is crying and can’t walk anymore, and that child is holding onto the legs and wants to be held, not wanting to walk anymore;
Collecting firewood, making fire, fetching water, making bedding... there is always work to be done. They asked people who have been to the capital, and they found out that it is impossible to live in the city every day. While living outside, except for the first two items, they have to do all the last things without missing a thing!
Even though I have been used to living a hard life and have enjoyed the good life for the past few months, I still don't want to suffer the hardships of fleeing again.
Shen Qing knew that they were all concerned about her, afraid that she would suffer again and come to nag her, she smiled and said: "The fortune teller said that there is Yi Ma in my horoscope, and I am destined to travel around;
It's okay, don't worry. I actually quite like going out. Doing something I enjoy doesn't make me feel tired at all."
Liu Cuihua was stunned. What was in her horoscope? Was there Yi Ma? She wanted to go out and take a look too!
She has been married for more than 20 years, and the most she has been to is Jincheng. The number of times she has gone out in the past 20 years can be counted on two hands.
She wanted very much to have seen the outside world like them.
Even if it was bad, she accepted it.
