"Dad, I thought about it last night. If we can't work in the village at all, there's no way to avoid it with so many people in our family."
"What do you think?"
"Our whole family will go to live in the county town for a while, and we will take Lihua with us. We will leave the house to the people down below to look after it."
"You're going to the county town and not coming back?"
"Well, otherwise we won't be able to peel all those river gourds. We plan to go to the provincial capital to pick more! We'll cook the ones we pick in the county first, and we'll peel them slowly during the winter."
"In that case, we will have to be away from home for several months." Zhao Dashu felt it was a waste. The teacher and his family paid tuition every six months, which was equivalent to paying several months' worth of money.
"There's no other way, Dad. If we go back and forth to the county town every day, we won't be able to hide our address in the county town. Believe it or not, if we go out today, they will be guarding our house tomorrow. When we come back and go out again, they will find out everything about you."
Don't treat people as fools, there are not so many fools.
"You are right. I just feel sorry for the teacher who has to take the tuition. He won't be able to go to class for several months."
"This little money is nothing compared to what we earn. We are not at home for a while, so we must let them take care of the house.
For example, they have to collect firewood for burning in winter, and they have to collect more, because there are many people in the family and Xiao Lei will also need it.
After the autumn harvest, we need to buy food and bring it home for everyone to eat. In winter, they are also required to stock up on pickled vegetables. ”
"These are just kids, they can do it. What do you think, family?" Zhao Dashu asked, staring at Song.
"I'll listen to you. Xiaoyu is right. Our family relies on river gourds to make money. No matter what, this is the most important thing."
"Well, then go and pack your things, we'll be leaving in a while." Anyway, he would drive the car and not take anyone with him.
While Song was packing up her things, Zhao Dashu went to find the housekeeper and asked him to look after the house while he also went to the Master's house. The new house is being built and the family has now moved out.
When he came back, the whole family had packed up, "Master, don't you really want me to accompany you to serve you? You guys have been away for so long this time, how can you not bring anyone with you?"
He thought it was really absurd, the son went out to do the work while the servants stayed at home enjoying themselves, how could such a thing be possible in the world?
"No need, just take care of the house and don't worry about other things. You should also visit Xiao Lei often and prepare firewood and other things for him." He had already given the key.
The housekeeper's persuasion was fruitless and he could only watch Zhao Dashu leave. He repeatedly assured them that he would take care of the family and they didn't have to worry.
When Zhao Dashu went out, he met Liu Shunzi and Heizi's families. "Hey, you guys are going out so early too?"
"Of course, this child can't be delayed. Where are you going?"
"The county town. I've been living in the county town recently."
"Then we don't have to worry about you being targeted by the villagers and unable to collect river gourds."
If they stay there, they will be safe as they won't have to go back and find anyone.
"What about the others?"
"The village chief and his family left before dawn, so we were the last to arrive. By the way, there were already river gourds in the houses in the county town. We picked them up last night and sent them over overnight."
Wow...you're so fast.
Every one of them values money more than their lives. He definitely earns more this year than last year.
Thinking of this, Zhao Dashu couldn't stop smiling. The harder they worked, the more he would earn.
What is this called? Winning without any effort! My daughter’s summary was spot on, and it feels so fucking good to win without any effort!
Lihua didn't know yet that she was going to the city to be a childminder, and she was very happy. She was thinking all the way about what to buy in the county town.
Zhao Xiaoyu didn't say anything to her. Just be happy for a while because they would start working when they went to the county town.
