Chapter 037 She’s here again!
Wen Kexin nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, my family was left with nothing and had no money. We exchanged with everyone for two cents a bundle. Who knew grandma was so black-hearted."
Aunt Wang said indignantly, "I have a few bundles of thatch grass at home. I did exchange them for two cents last night. They're not worth much. Second Brother Wen cut them himself. Old Madam Wen is obsessed with money. How can a mother be so mean to her own son?"
"That's right. No wonder your parents insisted on dividing the family. Such old people are too cruel."
"In Mrs. Wen's eyes, her daughter is her most beloved, followed by her eldest son and the third son. The second wife is there to serve them."
I heard everyone talking about it.
Wen Kexin was satisfied; this was exactly the effect she wanted to achieve.
Since Mrs. Wen doesn't treat the original owner's family as human beings, then reveal her true face and let everyone see it.
Amid the discussion, she continued calmly, "You may have heard me just now. I told the children that I wanted to exchange two pieces of White Rabbit candies or two glass balls for a bundle of straw. I don't have anything else at home, so I asked someone to exchange some straw for the house last night, but found that it was not enough. I want to use these things to exchange for a few more bundles of straw."
Several women said, "We heard you, you're really willing to spend two White Rabbit candies for such a beautiful glass ball. It's a loss after all."
"I'm just afraid that someone will say I'm fooling a child, so I'd rather give more than be criticized."
Aunt Wang said regretfully, "Daya, you are kindhearted. You can't bear to exchange money for others. If I knew about this, I would not have exchanged money last night. It would have been better to exchange a few candies today to satisfy the children's cravings."
Wen Kexin took out a few pieces of White Rabbit candy from her pocket and said, "The White Rabbit candy and the beautiful glass balls were bought by my husband in the county town. Aunts, please have a try."
When she said "my husband", she suddenly felt her face getting hot and at the same time she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.
Fortunately, the women didn't notice.
She enthusiastically handed a piece of White Rabbit candy in her hand to everyone.
“Try them all!”
The women all accepted it humbly, and no one was willing to eat it, so they just held it in their hands.
As the saying goes: Those who take from others are grateful, and those who eat from others are soft-hearted.
They praised her again and again, saying that she was kind, meticulous in her work, and would not fool children, etc.
Of course, he also criticized Mrs. Wen and those top people in the Wen family.
When Wen Keqin heard everyone's attitude, she realized belatedly that her eldest sister had been thinking of a solution since the sisters walked towards the Wen family.
Knowing that grandma would pay a high price, they wanted everyone to know how grandma treated their second wife.
She secretly gave her elder sister a thumbs up.
Wen Kexin felt that the time was almost right and saw a child taking thatch from home and walking back home.
After saying goodbye to everyone in a hurry, the two sisters returned to the front door of their house and kept taking over the thatch and exchanging the White Rabbit milk candies and glass balls.
After a while, a pile of thatch straw was replaced.
What made her happy was that Erzhu and Sanzhu from the Wen family's first wife also stole the thatch from their home and exchanged it not only for White Rabbit milk candies but also for some glass balls.
Wen Kexin complained in her heart: When the old man in the Wen family finds out that the thatched grass he used to exchange for money was exchanged for candy and toys by his prodigal grandson, I wonder how furious he will be?
I wish that old guy would die of anger!
At this time, Wen Jiancheng in the yard came over in his wheelchair, took a look and said, "Kexin, you are really good. These thatch grasses are almost enough."
Wen Kexin immediately said to the children: "Tell your friends that there is enough grass for thatching the houses."
The children nodded one after another and quickly went to inform their companions.
Song Mo, who was working hard on the roof thatching, saw his young wife making a deal with a group of children. Although he didn't understand what was going on, he realized that the matter was settled when he saw the gradually growing pile of hay beside her.
Seeing his young wife jumping around, he put his worries aside and continued to cover the house seriously.
After finishing the thatch work, Wen Kexin remembered that there was nothing to eat at home in the evening.
Thinking of that dried-up swamp, it's a good time to go and take a look, maybe there will be some unexpected gains.
"Mom, I have to go out for something. I will be back soon."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to go change some vegetables. We don't have much food for dinner."
Wang Qiaolian nodded and said, "There are only chicken eggs and wild duck eggs left, and some fresh vegetables such as cucumbers and persimmons."
"Okay, I got it!"
Wen Kexin picked up the backpack and quickly arrived at the swamp. What confused her was that she found nothing after searching for a long time.
I thought I would get something out of it, but I didn't expect it was just luck last night.
what to do?
There is not only pork in her space, but also beef, mutton, white-striped chicken, etc., and, yes, several kinds of fish.
Among them are not only freshwater fish, but also several kinds of marine fish.
Of course, these fish lost their lives after entering the space.
She wanted to go to the river fork to see if she could catch some live fish, and then take out a few similar freshwater fish from the space and mix them in.
This is a good idea!
In the original owner's memory, if you walk along this swamp, there is a river fork. It is said that there are crucian carp in it that can grow to the size of a palm.
Some of the half-grown children were greedy and secretly went to the river fork to catch fish.
When she arrived at the river fork, she saw a few familiar-looking boys gathered together and chattering excitedly.
One of the children was the youngest son of Aunt Zhao, named Fa Cai.
She walked over curiously and asked, "Fa Cai, did you catch any fish?"
When Fa Cai saw that it was her, he said in surprise, "Sister, we caught several big crucian carps."
Wen Kexin took a look and found that there were indeed a few palm-sized crucian carps, and the rest were small crucian carps.
She asked tentatively, "Fa Cai, would you like to exchange the fish you caught for money? My eldest sister has guests at home tonight, and I want to exchange them."
Fa Cai asked with sparkling eyes: "Big sister, how much can we get in exchange? These fish were caught by the four of us brothers."
Wen Kexin looked at the fish, which weighed about two kilograms. She knew she didn't need that little money, so she said generously, "How about I give each of you one yuan?"
One dollar is a huge sum of money!
Pork costs more than 80 cents now, so a fish like this is only worth more than one yuan.
The four half-grown children suddenly became excited and whispered a few words excitedly.
Fa Cai said cheerfully: "Okay, let's change!"
Wen Kexin took out four one-yuan bills and handed them to the half-grown children, then put the fish into her backpack.
It is normal for fish to die out of water.
On the way back, she took advantage of the fact that no one was around and mixed more than two kilograms of fresh crucian carp into the space.
She also took out some cucumbers and tomatoes, a bunch of eggplants, and a bag of garlic from the space.
After the eggplant is steamed, it will taste good if you mix it with meat sauce with garlic.
Besides, the eggplants in the space, you can imagine how they taste.
When she got home, Wang Qiaolian saw so many large and small crucian carps and asked in surprise: "Kexin, did you go fishing?"
"Mom, how could I catch fish? I saw Fa Cai and his friends fishing at the fork of the river, so I exchanged them for fish."
Although Wang Qiaolian felt distressed, she didn't want to blame her daughter when she thought about having food to eat in the evening.
"Okay, we'll stew half and fry the other half tonight. You wash the fish and salt it."
It was so easy to get away with it. Wen Kexin nodded readily and said, "Okay!"
When Wen Kexin finished cleaning and marinating the fish, she heard a group of people running towards her not far away, howling like wolves and ghosts, and the noisy sound was getting closer and closer.
She leaned over to look where the sound came from and quickly saw who it was.
I suddenly felt unhappy: She is here again!
