Smallholder Farmer

Episode 32, honeysuckle blooms and gold and silver come!

"Auntie, I bought wheat in Rencun, and I'm going to grind the flour! The uncle also said that there is still rice at home. He asked us if we want it, and we can buy four or five buckets!"

"Buy it, the family is not short of money now, you will be tired tomorrow, go and bring a few buckets back!"

"Okay!" Great, the rice is ready to play! Yuyue once again felt that her aunt knew what to do! sensible!

"Yue'er, what did you buy these big dustpans for?" Sheath looked at Yuyue struggling to carry these dustpans that were as tall as hers! Can't help but feel a little strange!

"Gun, I see. Last time, we saw a valley at the foot of Dahan Mountain. I dug some grass and planted it by the wall! What kind of Chinese medicine is it? Tomorrow, I will pick it and dry it Do it, hand it over to the pharmacy, and you can earn a lot of money!" Yuyue despises that she understands the behavior of pretending to be naive, so what can I do if I don't pretend?

"Are you telling the truth? False?" Auntie's eyes widened in surprise!

"Gu, I won't lie to you, four taels of dry goods! I've seen the samples! Good quality, but more expensive!"

The two of them were talking when they heard the door slamming loudly! Yuyue opened the small window and took a look! Grandma hurriedly opened the door: "Grandma, why are you here when you are free?"

Let the grandma into the main room to sit down! My aunt is busy holding a bowl of sugar water, which is the highest etiquette for hospitality in the village!

"Yue'er, grass girl, sit down, I'll discuss it with you!"

"Grandma, what are you discussing? You can just give me an order. Could it be possible that we can go against your old man's words?" Auntie said sincerely,

"Grandma, I know that you are all good babies, but grandma's words are a little hard to talk about! That's it, I also put my face away, and put it in my bag, that's it, Jin Dong from your elder brother's family, isn't this in the school?" Is it? But your eldest brother recently, the livelihood is not very good, and it will be over for repairing. Your sister-in-law’s natal family suffered a disaster, and this delay! The confession will be cut off, but Dongwa’s studies are promising. Mr. is always boasting, and I was thinking, can I buy more of your vegetable seedlings, grow them, sell them, and earn some money for my grandson to study!"

When my aunt heard about it, she had no choice but to look at Yuyue! Yuyue thought about it, and said to the grandma:

"Grandma, it's no problem. You can ask your elder brother to come over and dig seedlings in our vegetable field. However, grandma, the money is coming slowly. It's been more than a month and I haven't earned a tael of silver. I have A place to make money, tell Grandma, what do you think?" This is also Yuyue's little thought! My family is rich, even though I live on the edge of this village! But I also heard a lot of gossip, grandparents watched all day, Yuyue didn't dare to make too much trouble, and stopped the trick of mixing space water with well water half a month ago! Now you can take people from other families in a village to pick honeysuckle and sell them for money, so you can tell the people in the village in disguise how your family got their money! This advantage must be taken by the villagers. It just so happened that the grandma came and repaid her favor. The money was earned by the grandma, and Yuyue felt more comfortable in her heart! Secondly, grandma still has a great influence in the village!

"What place to make money? Tell grandma quickly, grandma knows that Xiaoyue, you are a sober baby, and you will be the most troublesome!"

"Grandma, Dahan Mountain, at the foot of the mountain, there is a Xianghuagou! You know it?"

"I know, the flowers blooming inside are delicious! What's the use of this?" asked the grandma!

"This flower is medicine. I asked the pharmacy. They collected it. We went to pick it, dried it and sold it. It can cost more than four taels of silver per catty!"

"Really?" Grandma's eyes lit up!

"Really, but, grandma, it takes a lot of fresh flowers to dry a pound of dried flowers! Let's pick them tomorrow!"

"Okay, this is a labor-saving job! But, are there enough flowers?" The grandma still couldn't bear to snatch food from the mouths of the three children, Yuyue!

"Yes, I saw it last time, it's a huge ravine! And the flowers can bloom four or five times!"

Grandma left happily! Aunt also hurried to pack things! Because Yuyue said that it would be more convenient to carry baskets, so she took a few pennies and rode a little donkey, and quickly bought three bamboo baskets and came back! I would like to say that starting tomorrow, there will be a 15-day wheat harvest holiday! But I don't have any land at home, so I'm not too busy, so a family of three can pick flowers and dry them in the sun!

In the evening, of course, it is steamed buns made of new flour, filled with cores of sauerkraut minced meat and shepherd's purse minced meat! I don't know if it's because I haven't eaten it for a long time, or because the wheat in this village is so good! The three of them ate deliciously!

Sincerely, starting from tomorrow, it will be a 15-day wheat harvest holiday! feel very happy! Can contribute to the family! I read this book well, even though I came back at night, I still taught my younger sister and aunt how to read! (It was Yu Yue's insistence that my aunt follow her to learn calligraphy!) But as the head of the family, brother Yan feels that he is being raised by his younger sister, and he feels a little uneasy in his heart! Shame!

The next day, early in the morning, Huntao made porridge, and the three of them ate the buns left over from yesterday, and they were full! Yuyue took the iron pot and filled the pots of the three of them with cold boiled water. Naturally, it was space water! At present, Yuyue's space water is just boiled out a pot every day, for a family of three to drink! The little donkey also carried empty baskets! Everything is ready, the grandma's family, seven people: Grandma, Aunt Zhen, Aunt Yuan, Aunt Jian, plus two cousins, Yujue, Yuyao, and Jindong all came with baskets on their backs! Huelcao habitually locked all the doors in the house! Hang all kinds of keys on the wall of the small inverted room at the gate of the courtyard. This is a place that all three people know, and finally lock the gate of the courtyard!

Team of ten set out! On the way, Yuyue told everyone that the flowers should be picked for protection, so as not to hurt the rattan. When they arrived at the place, they picked a few more flowers and asked everyone to try their best to pick the fast-blooming but unopened buds. Only then can the best medicine come out! Don't pick the ones that are still young, pick them up after two days, and explain them one by one!

Everyone understands, let's do it together! They are all working people, all holding tools in their hands - scissors! Otherwise, if you take it off this day, don't you cut off all the fingernails?

"Pluck this flower, don't press it too hard!" Yuyue only had time to say the last sentence, and everyone here couldn't wait to start working! This time is really a coin!

This morning, we took a break from picking until the afternoon, and the baskets brought by the ten people were all full. Everyone went home, set up drying racks, and dried them while the sun was good! Yuyue told everyone not to touch the water or turn it over, so as not to change the color of the dry product!

Fifteen days have passed, and all the flowers in Xianghuagou have been picked in sevens and eights. The grandma's house has picked more than five catties of dried flowers, and Yuyue's family has less, and some have about one catty!

This one is that the grandma has a lot of family members, and they are all adults. Second, Yuyue doesn't point to the flowers in the Xianghuagou to make money. First, she wants to bleach the honeysuckle in her space and replace it with silver! Secondly, it is also helping the grandma's family to earn some money! In fact, Yuyue mentioned this way of making money in order to repay the grandmother's family for taking care of her family! There is no shortage of money at home!

The three of them have enough to eat and drink. Yuyue's goal is to fill his brother's bookshelf and head with books, and finally let his brother pass the imperial examination and get out of this small village! I didn't even think about buying land and real estate again. Besides, the three of them can't let go of the things in this house now. My aunt has only been there for three or five days in the past ten days. The rest of the time is spent in the house, feeding pigs, Feed the chickens! Cook! Work in the vegetable field! I have to go to Yipinxian to deliver food! Fortunately, the school didn't need fat intestines during the holidays, otherwise, I would be too busy!

I would like to say that Brother Dong went to school, and the eldest grandma carried dried flowers on her back! At the door of Yuyue's house

"Xiaoyue, how are you, can you go?"

"Come on, grandma!" Yuyue carried her flowers on her back and followed grandma to the town! Ping An Medicine Hall is the largest medicine hall in the town! The general number is in Beijing, but there are also semicolons in the county! At this time, the shopkeeper Yu was not there, but Yuyue didn't know this!

Yuyue and the eldest grandma stood in front of the high door of the medicine hall, looked around, but there was no sign of shopkeeper Yu, so Yuyue had to let the grandma wait, and went to inquire by herself: "Second brother, I'm looking for shopkeeper Yu of!"

"This little girl, our shopkeeper is not here. If you want something to do, it's the same as our Lu Langzhong said!"

"I made an appointment with shopkeeper Yu, I can come here to sell medicine, I don't know...!"

"For this matter, there is Lu Langzhong! Where is your medicine? Bring it, let's go together, and negotiate the price with him!"

"I'm tired of you, I'm tired of you, little brother!" The grandma was full of gratitude!

Let go of the big stone in my heart, in fact, it's good if the shopkeeper Yu is not there, otherwise he will eat a ginseng baby one by one, and it will be difficult for him to explain many things clearly!

"Grandma, let's go,"

"Is it okay, why am I so worried!" The grandma looked a little panicked when she looked at the high-walled compound!

"Don't worry, let's go!" Yuyue comforted the eldest grandma!

"Brother Xiao Er, take us to find Dr. Lu!" The two walked up to Xiao Er, Yu Yue smiled and pointed at her back basket! This little second brother is really a bit old, almost twenty, right?

"Come here, auntie, little girl, let's go this way!"

Xiaoer led the two of them, walked past the long counter, and turned into a small door. Behind it was a small courtyard. There was a man who looked like a doctor. He was touching a medicine to smell it in front of several multi-storey drying racks. West grab a handful up and see!
