Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

Chapter 27 A dog can’t change its habit of eating shit

“Uncle is such a nice person, no wonder his tofu business is so good. They say good people are blessed. Uncle’s business will definitely be booming in the future.”

Everyone likes to hear nice words, let alone those nice words coming from the mouth of a pretty and pretty young daughter-in-law. Her voice is also soft and pleasant. The tofu seller grinned with laughter, "Then borrow it." Good luck to you."

After taking the tofu and packing his two bamboo baskets, Su Mulan said a few words to the tofu seller and the peach seller, and led Bai Shuiliu away.

Going to a deserted place, Su Mulan took off the money bag tied at his waist and counted it.

 A total of more than 20 kilograms of dried sweet potatoes were dried. Excluding the ones that were tasted and the extras that were given when selling the dried sweet potatoes, they sold for a total of sixty-two cents.

 “It’s okay, it’s almost as expected.” Su Mulan arranged the money bag and tied it around her body.

 And knowing that Bai Shuiliu had made so much money, it could be said that he was very excited at this time.

These more than 20 kilograms of dried sweet potatoes used almost 100 kilograms of sweet potatoes. Raw sweet potatoes are not valuable. If so many sweet potatoes were sold raw, they would cost more than 20 yuan.

It was just a matter of steaming and drying the food while doing farm work, and my income increased several times. It was already a lot of extra money.

Bai Shuiliu grinned happily, "Mom, I'll help you dry more sweet potatoes next time."

"Sure." Su Mulan nodded, "Let's go buy some things."

 I earned some money, and the carrots at home helped a lot, so I had to replenish the health of the little carrots at home.

Su Mulan led Bai Shuiliu all the way to the butcher shop.

Pork belly costs six cents per catty, while pork belly is cheaper at five cents, and the lean meat is more expensive. Su Mulan selected it and chose a piece of sitting post with a little more fat. She ordered about a pound of meat, and then went to the nearby shop and bought some salt.

 After finishing shopping, Sumulan and Baishuiliu went straight home without staying in the town.

 The sun is rising so high that it is already very hot.

Bai Lixia wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked at the stick field where the grass had been almost finished, and called to the white bamboo leaves and white rice beans, "It's almost done, the weather is getting hot, let's go home first."

"It's done." White bamboo leaves and white rice beans neatly trimmed the grass, pulled out a stick leaf, and prepared to tie the grass up, take it back, chop it up and feed it to the chickens.

After finishing packing, the three little carrot heads carried a large bundle of grass back home.

On the road, I met many villagers who were also walking home after working in the fields.

Mrs. Zhang was among them. When she saw Bai Lixia and the others sweating profusely, she sneered at the corner of her mouth, "They all say that this dog can't change its habit of eating shit. What they say is absolutely true. This Su Shi is pretending to do it in the ground." After two days of work, once you get a good reputation, you will immediately become too lazy to work at home. "

"Let me just say, Mrs. Su is just a lazy person. She is just showing off. Some people are really fooled by this. I think those who say she has changed her gender are all blind."

 Ms. Zhang is a talkative woman in the village, a troublemaker, and many people don't like her. Seeing how sarcastic she is, others don't want to talk to her.

When they saw the three Bai Lixia siblings, whose backs were soaked and carrying such a large bale of grass, they looked around, and when they did not see Su Mulan's figure, they all sighed.

 Additional notes:

The price system is roughly based on 1 penny = 3 yuan. In modern times, dried sweet potatoes are actually about 12 to 15 yuan per catty, and pork is 10 to 12 yuan per catty. Considering that there were many sweet potatoes in ancient times, the amount of pork is not as good as now. The price of pork is five to six cents per catty, and dried sweet potatoes are three cents per catty. When setting the prices of other items, the scarcity of the items will also be taken into consideration when setting prices, so don’t worry too much, everything is for the sake of the plot~
