"He hasn't been to the fields for many years, and he looks younger than other people of the same age in the village."
"So, our father was well-fed. Even though Mr. Qian had a lot of money and wealth, they still worried about him. If you ask me, our father is the one with the best life."
Wang nodded, the old man was indeed feeling better. She was taken to a negotiation by Zhao Dawen again, and they were now talking about their daughter.
"Do you think my daughter will come back home in three days?"
"What are you thinking about? She is not my wife. Madam Qian will never let our daughter go home and slap herself in the face."
"Then can we go to Qian's house to see her?"
Zhao Dawen held his chin with his fingers and thought that it was okay to go and see his daughter. Maybe she would be so happy that she would give them a few silver ingots.
"I'll ask around."
………………
Zhao Xiaoyu and his family peel crabs at their house in the county town every day. Except for Li Xi who has time to rest, everyone else works overtime. Because there were too many goods delivered.
"How come Xiao Lei picked up so much by himself? He picked up more than the Qian family's grandfather and grandson." Song asked in confusion.
"He makes a living by hunting. He is nimble and strong. It is normal for him to have more than the Qian family." Zhao Dashu said that he absolutely did not admit that Xiao Lei was capable of doing this.
"Dad came over yesterday and said Mom caught a cold. I don't know what happened?"
"Didn't you prescribe medicine? I'm sure you'll be fine." My mother-in-law valued money more than her life. She refused to go home to rest even when she was sick and was still picking river gourds outside.
What do you mean by one chance? It’s only once. There’s no such shop after this village. The more you pick up, the better.
However, he felt that as long as he was capable, it should be fine. If the disease was really serious, he would fall even if he didn't feel dizzy if he kept bending over.
I worked all day yesterday and nothing happened, so there must be no big problem.
"I hope so." Song was still worried. Mother was really something. There was no end to making money, and father didn't persuade her any more.
"You can ask grandpa again when he comes in the next two days. Mom, grandpa is not a person who doesn't care about others. If he didn't stop her, it must mean that grandma's illness is not serious."
"It rained so hard the past two days and I got soaked. I have to rest for two days at least."
Zhao Xiaoyu also admired the physique of the two old people, especially the grandfather, who was said to have sneezed a few times after being caught in a heavy rain.
The Qian family's grandfather and grandson are both weak and fell ill, so they have not come to deliver the goods in the past two days.
"That's what you said."
Zhao Dashu: He tried to persuade his wife like this for a long time but it was not as good as one word from his daughter. What position does he hold in his wife's heart?
"Dad, let's eat noodles tomorrow. Eating every day is a bit boring."
"Auntie, I'll tell Xiao when the food is served. What kind of noodles do you want to eat?"
"It doesn't matter. We eat whatever they cook."
"Dad, are we going back to the village for the Mid-Autumn Festival?" The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and it is reasonable to go home during this festival.
"You have to go back, and go home to visit again."
Zhao Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "If we go back, there will definitely be many villagers following us. We have to be careful when we leave."
Zhao Dashu: ... "No way, is it that exaggerated?"
"Yes." Zhao Xiaoyu nodded solemnly. "Dad, tell Uncle Liu and the others to be careful when you go home during the Mid-Autumn Festival. I'm afraid they will be watching our houses at night."
People are like this. The more they think something is fishy and the more they can't get it, the more curious they become and the more they want to know. There are so many households in the village, and if someone with good intentions does something wrong, it is possible that they can monitor them day and night.
Zhao Dashu took a deep breath and thought, wow, everyone is crazy about money, just like he used to be.
"Oh, I understand." They will definitely go back. They have children at home, so how could they not go home for the holidays?
"But what if we don't find anyone following us?"
"On the first day out, don't wander around, go to a remote place, and you'll notice someone following you immediately. Make sure no one is working anymore. Dad, no one in the village has a mule cart, so it's easier for us to avoid them by driving."
It's really hard to follow someone by legs.
"What if they drive, too?"
"Well, that's really hard to deal with. We can only go around them and walk on our own."
Zhao Dashu was sweating profusely. Now he had to hide and do nothing to earn money. It was really difficult for him.
He thought about selling the business, but his daughter said that if he did, the price of the river gourd sauce would be too low to sell immediately. Who would be willing to spend so much money on something that is available everywhere? The rich people who used to eat this sauce would probably not be willing to pay for it if they knew it was produced in muddy land because of their picky nature, and their family’s source of income would be cut off.
Also, river gourd sauce can normally only be stored for more than a month, so why can theirs be stored for so long? Quan㹓 is constantly supplying goods, where do the goods come from?
In short, there are too many tricks to explain, and there is no other way except to make money secretly. As for blind dates, I'm sorry, I can only feel sorry for them and I can't help them get rich.
"Girl, are you still making your own mooncakes today?"
"You think we're free?"
Well, it’s okay to buy and eat.
Because they had to go back to the village, they couldn't work for at least two days, so they worked overtime at night and peeled the fruits until late at night.
Zhao Dashu informed almost all the people who came to deliver goods, and the safest place at the moment was his father-in-law's house. He is the only family in the whole village that does it secretly and without attracting attention.
"Don't worry, Dashu. We will be careful and will never let anyone find us. You should talk to the Qian family. It's best to keep an eye on them if they walk slowly."
"They also have mule carts, so I don't think it will be a big problem."
"You know it yourself."
The village chief was the most thoughtful. "Dashu, when the time comes, several of our families will leave the village at the same time, and everyone will go in different directions. Let's see which one they will follow?"
It has to be the village chief, this is a really good idea.
"Go to a remote place, if someone follows you they can catch you in no time." In fact, the places where they worked every day were also remote places. They didn't dare to go to busy villages for fear of being discovered.
"I understand. I'll go back and tell them." The village chief was happy. He earned a lot of money today. His wife said that she would come to the county town to buy a house tomorrow.
When they pick river gourds tomorrow, all the children in the family will move to the county town. After delivering the goods, they can go home to rest for a night and they will not be able to return to the village until tomorrow. I haven't seen you for so long, it would be a lie to say I don't miss you.
When Old Man and Old Lady Song came to deliver the goods, Mrs. Song was completely relieved to see that they were indeed fine.
Zhao Dashu explained to his father-in-law again that although their village was safe, there were also women who married into the Old Sow Village. If they said too much when they returned to their parents' home, someone would inevitably keep an eye on the Song family.
