Mrs. Gui pursed her lips. The matchmaker said she was black, but she didn't know what a black girl looked like. Could it be that nothing could be seen except the eyes and mouth?
She wanted her daughter to be tall, handsome and wealthy, for she was afraid that Zhaodi would not be interested in her.
The longer you put it off, the older you get, and the more likely someone will get engaged. What can you do?
"She will definitely get tanned if she works all the time. If she marries into a family like this, Zhaodi and I will have to teach her a lot. She will definitely have to do a lot of work once she gets married."
"Yes, the eldest daughter-in-law, she will be in charge of all the things in the family in the future." Although they said their family was well-off, in fact, they just worked hard all their lives to grow a living, which was no different from her current job.
"Boss, we have to buy some land." Wei Zhaodi, she thought of their home.
"Buy land?" Zhao Dayong was puzzled. Why buy land? If there are more, it will be hard for the couple to grow crops.
"Well, look, Zhaodi's in-laws have ten mu of land, and the two sons of the old family each get ten mu. Our father is the same. Before the old family was born, he thought the land was quite a lot. After the old family was born, how much do we each have?
What about our sons? Do we have ten acres of land to give to them? They are not two brothers but three brothers. If each person has two acres of land in the future, will it be enough for their family to eat? Where is the land for my son’s children and grandchildren? ”
Zhao Dayong was stunned, as if struck by lightning. Oh my God, according to his wife, even a hundred acres of land would not be enough for his future! He can't support his grandson even if he works himself to death.
"We can ignore our grandchildren, but for now, what will happen to our three sons? There is no hope for the third son at all."
Zhao Dayong suddenly felt a lot of pressure and his back even hunched.
"There will always be a way out when you get to the mountain. Let's slowly figure it out."
"What can I do? If I don't have money, I won't have land. No matter what I think, it won't work."
"It's not that I don't want to make money, but how can I make money? I already work on the construction site every day."
Mrs. Xu also knew that he was almost exhausted from working so hard, "Next year, let's raise two more pigs and a few more chickens, that will also provide some income."
"Well, after I finish the work at the construction site this year, if there is no work next year, I will go to the county town to do some odd jobs."
Zhao Dayong, who originally had several dozen taels of silver on him and felt that his life had changed for the better, is now feeling a little anxious.
"Let's talk about it next year. It's not that easy to find work outside. I think if it doesn't work out, we can go to the county town to sell vegetables."
"Go to the county town to sell vegetables?" Zhao Dayong was shocked again as to how his wife could have so many ideas. When did she think of this?
"Well, it's selling vegetables. It's said that most people in the county have small yards and no land for them to grow crops, so they have to buy everything." There was a strange light in the eyes of the wife, "Boss, growing vegetables is not difficult. The wasteland in the village can be used for planting, and I can take care of it. If we can sell it for money, wouldn't it be another source of income for us?
The only one who suffers is you, having to run back and forth to the county town every day. ”
Zhao Dayong waved his hand, "If it can really be sold, it doesn't matter if it's a bit tiring. Let's give it a try next year. If it doesn't work, come on board and sell it with me."
The eldest son would go out to sell vegetables, but Mrs. Li did not have any expectations, as long as he did not make a fuss if he had no books to read.
In fact, she was not sure about selling vegetables. People in the city were picky and it was not easy to earn money from them.

On the day off, Zhao Xiaoyu took Xiao Lei and quietly went out, carrying a backpack.
"You really won't tell Auntie?"
He was very uneasy about sneaking out like this. His aunt was so mean to him, how could he sneak up the mountain with Xiaoyu?
"Tell her that we definitely can't go up the mountain. Don't waste time, and go up the mountain to find herbs quickly."
