On the other hand, Zhao Dashu's business was booming. Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the restaurant kept receiving orders, and many people gave this sauce as gifts. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone’s enthusiasm for shopping remains unabated. This time I bought some for myself to eat.
Zhao Dashu had to deliver goods every two days. He did not ask the shopkeeper to pick up the goods, but now it was convenient for him to deliver the goods as he lived in the county town.
"Xiaoyu, take another hundred cans and put them on the mule cart later."
"knew."
Zhao Dawen received a message from the old house, telling them to solve the autumn harvest problem themselves.
"What do you mean, Dad and Mom? Are you really not going to take care of me anymore?"
Wang was also very annoyed. "We won't be returning to the village anyway, so why don't we sell the land?" Her parents-in-law made trouble for no reason and wanted her to go home to do farm work. She was really fed up with it.
"Sold it?"
"Yes, we'll sell it after the autumn harvest."
"What are we going to do with this autumn harvest?"
"Find someone to do it. Go back to the village and find a few people to help harvest the grain. After harvesting, send the grain to the county town for us."
Zhao Dawen felt that it was inappropriate. What if someone stole his food and no one was watching? Those peasants were nothing, and he really didn't trust them.
"I'm busy. Why don't you go home and find someone and come back after we harvest the crops."
"Why are you busy? Zhao Dawen, can you find an excuse to lie? The school doesn't have a holiday for the autumn harvest? All the children are on holiday."
Zhao Dawen could not continue editing. "I was thinking of copying more books at home during the holidays. How much can I earn by copying books in a day? Can't I do the work if you don't have me? I didn't ask you to go to the fields yourself, right? You just need to watch others work."
Wang thought about it and it was true that copying books was indeed profitable, especially thick and important books.
"Why don't you go back to the old house and copy books?"
Wang was very worried because Zhao Ruxin told her that she was afraid of being bullied by her mother-in-law when she returned home.
"It's too noisy at home. My child and I will wait for you in the county town."
"What about your food and drink? Will there be another witch in the house when I come back?" Wang narrowed her eyes. She couldn't let Zhao Dawen stay alone in the city. Now that there was money at home, who knew what kind of trouble this man would do.
"What are you talking about? I told you I'll just copy books at home and buy food outside."
"Don't talk nonsense to me, let's go back to the old house together, this is not discussed."
"no……"
Wang picked up the broom, and Zhao Dawen said nothing. "Okay, let's make it clear first. I won't take care of anything when we get back."
"Okay." It's not that she cares about this rotten eggplant, it's just that she can't stand someone making trouble in front of her.
"Second brother, on the day of autumn harvest, the whole family will go to the fields together. Zhaodi will stay at home to cook and bring us water." My granddaughter is about to get engaged, so she is not allowed to go to the fields. But I, the old woman, also have to go down to work this year.
"Okay, Dad, why don't you not go? You're not in good health."
Old man Zhao waved his hand and said, "I have to go too. The harvest is not very good this year. Looking at the sky, it feels like it's going to rain. I can only feel at ease if I harvest the crops as soon as possible."
"Okay, if you can't stand the fatigue, go home and rest."
Old Mrs. Sun felt very disappointed. She also wanted to go to the fields to work? She hasn't been to the fields since she got married. What's wrong with the old man recently? Why does he even spare her and herself when he's mad?
"Old man, my waist..."
"It's just a few days. Just bear with it and it will pass."
Li was happy in her heart. Not only was there less land to harvest this time, but there were also more people involved. It would definitely be easier than last year.
After Zhao Dawen and his family came back, Old Man Zhao never paid any attention to them. After being rejected twice, he no longer came to their house. Wang found three strong men to help her harvest the crops, paying them thirty cents a day.
The wages during the autumn harvest increased again. Since the village chief and his men offered this price, she had no choice but to pay the money with a painful heart. No matter what, she was determined not to go to the fields and suffer.
When the family came back, they had no food to eat, so Wang bought some rice and vegetables from her neighbors and cooked for herself every day. It was still quite economical as she only cooked for a family of four.
The villagers had a keen sense of smell and they immediately discovered that Zhao Dawen and the old house were not getting along, and that old man Zhao was no longer paying attention to his eldest son. Something must have happened in this family that they were unaware of.
There is strength in numbers, and the autumn harvest went very smoothly this time. Eight days later, Zhao Dawen and his family left with the grain. They didn't say goodbye to anyone when they left. They just hired an ox cart to the door, loaded up the food, and never looked back.
Old man Zhao was so angry that he was shaking all over. This evil creature was so righteous even after doing something wrong. He was totally out of his mind and had no conscience.
"Okay, didn't you ignore him yourself? Why are you so angry now that he's gone?"
Old man Zhao leaned on the kang without saying a word. He didn't know why he was angry, he was just very disappointed. He was furious when he saw Zhao Dawen, especially when he saw him writing and copying books.
Copying books? Oh, if he only copied books to make money, he could have stopped supporting him long ago, what a good-for-nothing!
