Liu Xue was grooming Hua Hua. When she heard this, she said hurriedly, "Master is only 12. Aunt Zhu, what are you thinking about?"
Song Yuehua nodded. She was only 12 years old, and even if it was painless, she didn't really want to be a mother.
"What a pity..." Zhu Yanli chuckled.
The sound of a baby crying came from the inner room. Zhu Yanli stood up, took off her outer coat while standing outside the door, and then went into the room.
After they finished turning over the millet in the yard, Song Yuehua still had to go to the cotton field to take a look.
When passing by the playground, I happened to meet Grandma Jin who was turning over the grain to dry.
Song Yuehua smiled and greeted, "Grandma Jin, it must be more than a thousand pounds in total."
"It should be more than that," said Grandma Jin. "The place is big here, so it dries quickly. If there are a few more strong suns, it will be completely dry. We'll know when we weigh it."
Song Yuehua did not delay people from drying the millet. She said a few words and left.
The rice harvest and drying lasted until the end of the month. When all the rice was dried and weighed, there were a total of more than 2,300 kilograms.
After paying the grain tax, the Zhang family sent the remaining 60% of the grain to the Song family.
On the day the grain was delivered, after it was weighed, Tang smiled and asked, "Do you want to sell Yuehua's grain together?"
"I don't plan to sell it." Song Yuehua said.
Both the family and the school needed food, so Song Yuehua never thought of selling the output of these 25 acres of land.
The Zhang family planned to sell more than 880 kilograms of millet.
Song Yuehua asked, "Aunt Tang, you are going to sell it anyway, why not sell it to me? The price of millet is not high. If you can remove the husk, I will buy it at the price of 40 wen per pound of white rice."
The busy farming season has just ended, and the Zhang family has some free time. Although farming is hard work, there are many people in the family, so if they take turns to do it, they can earn twice the money, so why not do it?
The Zhang family agreed without hesitation.
Zhang Erniu said, "There's a lot of millet here. It'll probably take some time to make fine rice."
"Don't worry, I have enough food here. Just send it over when it's ready." Song Yuehua said.
After saying goodbye to Song Yuehua, the two brothers calculated as they walked.
More than 880 kilograms of grain can produce at least 600 kilograms of white rice. At 40 wen per kilogram, that is 24 taels of silver, and each family can get 12 taels.
Zhang Daniu became more and more excited as he calculated, "12 taels, enough to eat until I'm full for the whole year."
Tang pulled Zhang Erniu.
Zhang Erniu immediately understood and whispered, "Brother, let's talk about it when we get back."
Zhang Daniu realized that he had lost his composure and nodded quickly.
After returning home, Zhang Daniu couldn't wait to share the good news with his family. Sure enough, Grandma Jin and Zhang were extremely happy.
The whole family was calculating how much money they could save in a year. Tang was echoing the thoughts on the side, but her mood was not very high.
A few days ago, she went to the school specially, asked Master Yi, and came back to do some calculations.
Rushan was definitely going to take the imperial examination. Apart from the expenses she knew about, there were many more that she didn't know about. When all was added up, it was not a small amount.
With their current financial situation, it would be difficult for them to survive until the third game.
If you fail once, and then retake the exam a second time, and a third time, it will be a bottomless pit...
Tang was very conflicted. Zhang Erniu noticed that his wife was distracted and asked her what was wrong.
Tang Shi made up his mind and said while everyone was there, "I want to go to Dongshan to work!"
