"7 jin of Alpinia arborescens, 342 yuan in total, take it!"
"Thank you, shopkeeper!"
"Girl!"
"father!"
It turned out that he was following an adult out. He thought he was a child from a poor family, a poor guy who had to support the family alone because his parents were sick. Uh, it seems like he's imagining too much.
Seeing Zhao Dashu's red face due to excitement and her eyes glowing green, Zhao Xiaoyu knew that Rehmannia glutinosa must be very valuable.
"Dad, let's go buy some food. Mom and Li Xi must be very hungry."
Zhao Dashu pulled him, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear with a sly look.
"My dear, do you know how much silver I sold it for today?"
"a lot of?"
"Well, it's more than twelve taels!"
Wow, that’s a lot.
"Dad, my son has made some money now. Let's buy a roast chicken and eat some meat." She has been craving for meat for a long time. In the past, in order to lose weight, she didn't want to eat any meat and she really thought meat didn't taste good.
Now what? This body is seriously deficient and extremely lacking in oil and water. My mouth starts to drool when I think about some fat meat. I'm so greedy!
"Hey, buy a fat one, a big one!"
"Okay!" She originally wanted to buy a pork elbow, but when she thought about Chang Yu's family who never ate meat, she gave up the idea. Too much is as bad as too little. I'm afraid I'll have diarrhea if I suddenly eat so much greasy food. Not only is she suffering, but she is also eating for free. No, no, she is so poor, she can't do business at a loss.
"Dad, if we lived on our own, we could buy some rice and flour now to nourish Mom and Li Xi."
Zhao Dashu's eyes dimmed. Indeed, if he dared to bring rice and flour home, there would be chaos at home. If she knew what they were doing these days, not only would she not leave them a single cent, she would also force Xiaoyu to go up the mountain to look for herbs every day, and might even force her into the deep mountains.
"If mom eats well and gets better, maybe my brother will come. Dad, have you forgotten what the village doctor said before? Mom has been doing housework for a long time. She eats poorly and her body is very weak, which makes it difficult for her to get pregnant."
son!
Zhao Dashu's eyes lit up again, then withered again, "Your grandfather won't let us out, and if we get out, how are we going to survive?"
It’s not easy for a family with no descendants to survive. Which village doesn’t bully those with no descendants?
"We have more than ten taels of silver in our hands now, which is enough to build a house. I have many ways to make money in my mind. As long as we can get out, we will definitely live a good life. Dad, I don't want Mom to be bullied in the old house, and I don't want to earn a little money and not dare to eat or drink. I don't want to work hard to earn money and end up with all the money going into my uncle's pocket."
"Your grandfather won't let us go now, do you understand?"
Of course she understood that the old man would never give up free labor.
This can only be done slowly.
"That is to say, if grandpa wants to divide the family, you will definitely agree?"
"Of course I am. Now that you are here, we can enjoy the good life after the breakup. Am I out of my mind? I am still suffering at home."
The corners of Zhao Xiaoyu's mouth twitched slightly. As expected, her father was still her father, and he was more insightful than her.
"I didn't dare to share it a few days ago because we only had three taels of silver. Now, huh, I wish your grandfather would kick me out of the house." That's right, the old man seemed to have become a different person these days. He was very tolerant and accommodating to him, which made him very embarrassed!
The two hurriedly bought a large bag of dry food, a roast chicken, and a few bottles of hot water, then hurried back.
There was no one in the bamboo forest, and he said, "Girl, I'll give you the silver."
Zhao Xiaoyu saw that he looked very sad and reluctant, "Why don't you keep it?"
"No, I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and die, and I'm afraid I can't keep it." His mother often searched him and Song's bodies for anything, fearing that they had hidden something private. Especially, every time he went to work, he would be searched several times before he even entered the door. After that, he would go straight to her every day. Just thinking about it gave him a headache. Damn, he really didn't care about the differences between men and women when he was with her.
Zhao Xiaoyu also wanted to imitate the cheap grandpa's trick, and looked at the cheap dad with sympathy, "Give me the silver."
"Well, you must hide well, do you understand?"
"Zhiyi, if you need money, just tell me. Money is earned, not saved. Eat when you need to, drink when you need to, don't save."
"Okay!"
He likes his daughter to be generous.
Zhao Xiaoyu glanced at the bamboo forest beside him, then at the sky, "Dad, let's pick a few bamboo shoots. I'll cook them tonight and see if they're edible."
"It's very bitter."
"I remember there was a way to remove the astringency, but I just haven't tried it."
God, can you give me a solution? !
Zhao Dashu was shocked and his eyes widened. Oh my God, is my daughter now the extremely smart and powerful person that is rumored in the village? Now, is it true that she can't do it without me? No, no, he couldn't let such a fortune go to waste. He had to find a way to divide the family property so that he and his daughter could live a good life as soon as possible.
"Wait here for me while I go pick the bamboo shoots."
My daughter is a precious lady now, how can she do rough work? He will do all the work from now on, and the daughter will just have to use her mouth and brain.
He quickly pulled out a dozen bamboo shoots and threw them into the backpack, then pulled Zhao Xiaoyu and continued on his way.
"Let's eat on the mountain, and then go down when we're full. We can hide the leftovers at the bottom of the backpack, okay?"
Zhao Xiaoyu found it funny that her cheap dad was acting like a bootlicker! "become!"
Zhao Dashu grinned happily.
Up the mountain.
"Mom, mom, Li Xi, come here quickly, take a break, don't pick any more, we brought back some snacks."
Li Xi had been very hungry for a long time. If her mother hadn't told her that apples were herbs and couldn't be eaten, she would have wanted to eat them.
"father!"
Zhao Dashu found a big rock and took out all the things. "Come, have a big meat bun first!"
Li Xi happily held the meat bun and ate it. Hmm, the buns today are more delicious and fragrant.
"Damn it, eat quickly!"
Song had gotten used to it. She would eat whatever the head of the household gave her. If she said anything too much, they would get upset, and then they would take turns scolding her. In the end, she would still eat whatever she was supposed to eat.
What did my daughter say? Oh, we share the good times and the bad times.
Zhao Dashu held a big bun in his mouth and began to unwrap the lotus leaf wrapper with his hands. Song glanced at his hand. What is this?
Open it, and wow, a big roast chicken? !
