Chapter 86 Sitting at home and collecting money



The next morning, Shen Ruofei and Song Ying took leave as usual to sell watermelons.

Yi Xiaoqiu's door was knocked on by two people who were leaving early in the morning.

"Xiaoqiu, here's the money for buying watermelons. I'll give it to you." Shen Ruofei took out a stack of big unity bills.

What happened last night made Shen Ruofei and the others forget to pay for the watermelon.

They had never met the old uncle, and the money was of course given to Yi Xiaoqiu. As for whether Yi Xiaoqiu got a commission or not, that was none of their business.

Song Ying also took out a wad of money and suggested, "You'd better talk to your uncle and get the goods from a different place next time."

Shen Ruofei also nodded in agreement. "Yes! It is indeed very risky outside."

Yi Xiaoqiu had originally planned to tell them about this.

"My uncle also felt it was inconvenient to deliver the watermelons to our place last time, so he found a house in town. Next time, I'll take you there to pick up the goods.

Next time, you guys go there by yourselves. Just tell me how many watermelons you want in advance."

Shen Ruofei added: "Then next time we should take leave together and go to the commune, preferably before the autumn harvest."

"Yeah." They all wanted to sell more watermelons while the weather was still hot so they could make more money.

The three of them tacitly agreed not to mention what happened last night.

After the two of them rode their bicycles away from the educated youth site, Yi Xiaoqiu did not rush to go to work. Instead, she carefully counted a stack of large unity notes in the house. As she counted, she smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.

Four thousand kilograms of watermelon, three hundred and twenty yuan per acre.

She is so witty!

There are female teachers selling watermelons for her. She doesn't have to take the risk of going to the black market. She can just sit at home and collect the money. It's so cool!

I really hope Shen Ruofei and Song Ying can make more trips every month.

Yi Xiaoqiu was looking forward to it and thinking about what to sell after the watermelon season was over.

You can’t sell watermelons in the middle of winter!

Although there are many types of crops on her farm, not all of them are suitable for sale in the Great Northern Wilderness.

But there are a few things that are definitely worth buying.

Cornmeal and rice are produced in abundance in the Great Northern Wilderness, and there is still a shortage of supply on the surface. I wonder if Shen Ruofei and the others will sell grain from time to time?

Yi Xiaoqiu thought about it and realized that both Song Ying and Shen Ruofei were willing to sell watermelons. They said that they didn't have enough things to sell, not even food.

After thinking it all through, Yi Xiaoqiu came to the office in a good mood, waiting to go to work.

It was already quite late, and many men and women working as farmers were standing on the threshing floor.

At this time, Wang Xiaomin's voice came from behind in the crowd.

"Oh! Aunt Lai, why hasn't your daughter-in-law come to work in a long time?"

Lai Cuihua smiled complacently, "There are so many strong laborers in my family, why would I need a new daughter-in-law to do such tiring work?"

"Hey! I didn't expect that you, Lai Cuihua, would be so easy to talk to after becoming a mother-in-law. Liu Zhiqing is so lucky to have a mother-in-law like you!"

Lai Cuihua's voice rose a few notches as a flicker of uneasiness flashed across her face. "If I don't treat my own daughter-in-law well, who else can I treat well? I'm telling you, anyone who marries into my family and becomes my daughter-in-law will be treated the same. Don't look down on my sons because they're not tall, but they're loving children!"

As soon as she said this, she instantly won the favor of many people.

"I never thought that Lai Cuihua's personality would change after she got a daughter-in-law. She's so easy to talk to!"

"That's right. I haven't seen Liu Zhiqing go to work in many days. It seems that what Lai Cuihua said is true."

Liu Xiaoping hadn't been to work for several days, and everyone saw that she was in good health when she went out, so no one doubted Lai Cuihua's words.

Some people even changed their views on Lai Cuihua.

I didn't expect that Lai Cuihua, who is so hot-tempered and unreasonable, would be so nice to her daughter-in-law. It seems that we can't just look at one side of a person!

Of course, there were also women who couldn't stand Lai Cuihua.

"Lai Cuihua, if you have the guts, why don't you let your son marry another educated youth?"

"Yeah! You have a son! You just married a daughter-in-law, what's there to be proud of?"

"My son does want to marry her, but he's waiting for the female educated youth to agree!" Lai Cuihua looked in the direction of Yi Xiaoqiu and said shamelessly.

Lai Cuihua wished all her sons could get married immediately.

That shameless Liu Xiaoping was involved with her sons, and she was afraid that the matter would be exposed even in her dreams at night.

If their sons had married those beautiful female educated youth, they would never have slept with Liu Xiaoping's ugly kang.

The people around, noticing that Lai Cuihua was hinting at something, all covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

I don't know whether he was laughing at Lai Cuihua, a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, or whether he was gloating over Yi Xiaoqiu being taken advantage of by the Yu family.

Yi Xiaoqiu listened to the movement over there, raised his eyelids, and said nothing.

As long as Lai Cuihua didn't mention anyone by name, she wouldn't have to get angry. She wouldn't have to identify herself and people would say she was guilty.

At noon, the farmers and workers finish their work and go home to have lunch.

When Liu Xiaoping saw that Lu Dashan went to the backyard, she immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and followed him.

Before Dashan could even enter the toilet, he was caught up from behind by Liu Xiaoping and grabbed.

"You promised me something last night, you haven't forgotten it!"

㠬 Dali glanced around and nodded, "No, don't worry, I'll remember it!"

Liu Xiaoping was worried, "What are you going to do?"

"I..." Lu Dashan scratched his head, "I haven't thought about it yet."

"You lied to me?" Liu Xiaoping's eyes were filled with anger after being deceived.

"No...no!" Yu Dashan shook his head repeatedly.

"Then go find a gangster and destroy Yi Xiaoqiu's innocence, and then I will believe you!"

Liu Xiaoping spoke in a flat tone, as if saying that the weather was nice today.

"Uh..." Lu Dashan was stunned for a moment. He had expected Liu Xiaoping to make such a request, but he just couldn't think of where to find anyone at the moment.

"Hmm?" Liu Xiaoping glanced at him.

"Hey, I promise you!" Dashan puffed out his chest.

Only then did Liu Xiaoping leave the backyard with satisfaction.

Dashan turned around, pushed open the toilet door, and was immediately startled.

"Hey! Mom, why are you here?"

Lai Cuihua stood in the toilet, pushed her son aside, and walked out of the toilet. "Hurry up, I have something to tell you after this."

"oh!"

After a while.

"I've been sleeping on your sister-in-law's bed these days." Lai Cuihua went straight to the point.

Dashan's face flushed, and he looked embarrassed. "Mom... I... I just..."

He just couldn't put it into words, but Lai Cuihua had been through it all, so there was nothing she couldn't understand.

"You fool, you're not really planning to find someone to destroy Yi Zhiqing's innocence, are you?"

Dashan nodded naively.

Lai Cuihua reached out and pinched his ear, "Are you stupid? Don't you want to get married?"

"think!"

"Then why are you looking for a gangster? Why don't you create an opportunity and do it yourself? Why did I raise such a stupid son like you?"

"How to create opportunities?" Yu Dashan was confused.

Lai Cuihua pulled her son over, leaned close to his ear, and whispered her opinion.
