At night, in the three houses of the Ji family.

Ye Qiuyun was breastfeeding her daughter when she saw her husband mysteriously walking behind her and taking out a wooden hairpin from his arms.

This wooden hairpin is carved with flowers, which looks particularly delicate.

"Did you buy it with the money you paid from selling dates today?"

Ye Qiuyun took the wooden hairpin fondly and touched it with his hand.

"Yes, do you like it?" Ji Liangqing was still very good at making his wife happy, and took the initiative to insert the hairpin into Ye Qiuyun's hair.

Ji Miaomiao stared at the wooden hairpin on her mother's hair. The hairpin was very beautifully carved and looked very elegant when paired with Ye Qiuyun's beautiful face.

"I like it, but now our family has a lot of money to spend, so don't buy it next time." Ye Qiuyun happily touched the wooden hairpin on his head and warned.

"I know." Ji Liangqing touched his daughter's little feet: "The most important thing for us now is definitely to save money. When mother divides the money from father-in-law, our family will be able to save some money."

In families where the mother-in-law is still alive, the mother-in-law is usually in charge of the money. However, she does not manage all the money. She usually manages the public money, and the remaining part is divided equally among the family.

Mrs. Ji is not a stingy person, nor does she like to tease her daughter-in-law, so Ji Liangqing gave all the money to Mrs. Ji.

Because sooner or later she will give these sons and wives.

Ye Qiuyun was happy when she saw that her husband knew what he was doing. He really liked the hairpin when he touched it, and held it in his hand to look at it that night.

Ji Liangqing couldn't help but smile when he saw his wife looking at her: "What's wrong? Do you like it so much? I'll buy you a gold one when I get rich!"

Ye Qiuyun glared at him, "You know how to talk in just one day! It's great if you can buy me a silver one, and you're talking about a gold one!"

When she got married, her mother gave her a gold earring as a dowry, so that her dowry would be the first among the sisters-in-law.

Unfortunately, before fleeing the famine, the earrings were pawned in order to buy more rice and noodles for the family.

Now that the family can have enough food, drink and warmth, it’s great. What else can you think of?

Ji Liangqing said it casually, but seeing that Ye Qiuyun didn't believe it, he argued with reason:

"Don't believe it, I found a big business opportunity in Lin'an County today! There is only one wine shop there, and the wine sold is expensive and tastes bad!"

Ji Liangqing lowered his voice and said, "If we can make wine and sell it, we can definitely make a lot of money."

Ye Qiuyun rolled his eyes at him, "Can you make wine?"

Ji Liangqing smiled and said, "How do you know you are not a good husband?"

Ye Qiuyun's face immediately turned red. Ji Liangqing smiled and squeezed onto the kang, next to his wife and daughter.

The two couples might just talk casually and then talk about other things.

But Ji Miaomiao suddenly remembered that there seemed to be books on how to make wine in her own space.

I just don’t know if this modern version of the book is of any use!

It’s just that no one in the family is literate now, so it’s useless to take it out. I’d better wait until I’m older!

Hey, I suddenly feel that my tasks are quite heavy, and many things can only be done when I am older!

——

With the eight taels of money brought back by the three brothers of the Ji family, the Ji family went to the mountains again the next day.

The whole family worked together and picked a lot of dates.

After Mrs. Ji came back, she was busy looking for cloth to wrap the money she brought back yesterday, and discussed buying cloth for Ji Miaomiao to make clothes.

There is no need to sell the vegetables at Zhang Dazhuang's house for the time being, and the Ji brothers had already established a good relationship with the officers and soldiers guarding the city yesterday, so they did not disturb the Zhang family again.

The three brothers and old lady Ji all entered the city.

With the basket of wild dates from yesterday, they came in quite smoothly today. After all, the officers and soldiers got the advantage and were short-handed.

She came too early and Buzhuang hadn't opened yet, so Mrs. Ji had to help her sons sell wild dates for a while. Seeing that it was getting lighter, she went straight to Buzhuang.

The clerk at the cloth store was originally in low spirits, but when he saw the customers, he immediately became energetic.

Mrs. Ji is not a stingy old lady, not to mention her granddaughter is a little fairy who came down from heaven. How could she wrong the little fairy and buy good cloth as soon as she comes?

This cloth is really expensive, but I spent three taels of silver on one piece.

But this piece of cloth can make several clothes.

There are even more people making little dolls.

Today, Ji's family sold 7 taels of silver. Excluding Mrs. Ji's expenses, they already earned 12 taels of silver from selling dates.

But this can be regarded as the largest income. After all, it is a time of famine, and there are still very few families in need of wild oaks. Most families prefer to save their money to buy food.

For example, when they first came here, they sold all the dates in just one morning, but today it took them most of the day.

Moreover, the dates in the wild jujube forest are almost finished.

When going back that day, Mrs. Ji was thinking about the cloth she bought today and said to her three sons:

"I don't think these wild dates will be sold for a long time. They were almost picked, but they are not selling well now. I have made so much money from selling them, so it is not a loss."

"Selling dates every day is not a long-term plan after all. You brothers might as well stop picking them tomorrow and plow the land in front of our house first. This kind of food is serious."

The three brothers from the Ji family all agreed.

After all, they have been told to farm the land since they were born. It is deeply ingrained in their bones that the lifeblood of farmers is the land. When my mother said this, I thought it made sense.

After returning home, Mrs. Ji first took the cloth she bought to Ye Qiuyun's room. When she saw Ye Qiuyun holding the baby and breastfeeding, a smile instantly appeared on her face.

"Girl Miao, this is the cloth I went to the county town to buy for you today. Let's see if you like it."

Because they were chosen for their little granddaughter, the color Mrs. Ji chose was pink, which looked much brighter than the clothes they wore.

Ye Qiuyun took the cloth and frowned:

"Mom, Miao Yatou is so young, so it's worth buying less. Why did you buy so much?"

She also felt sorry for her family's money. She didn't have much money at home, but she finally made some money by selling dates.

If the money is given to Huo Huo soon, how will it be maintained in the future?

Mrs. Ji also knew that her third daughter-in-law cared about the family, so she waved her hand and said:

"Miao Yatou, make her two more clothes. My granddaughter has done so much for the family, why doesn't she deserve a few more clothes? Don't be too stingy as a mother."

"Don't worry too much about the money at home. The old lady knows it well. Just take care of our little girl. You will be the great hero of the family!"

Ji Miaomiao looked at a piece of cloth, her hands fluttering.

There is no girl who doesn’t like new clothes. In ancient times, when conditions were limited, they had no choice but to make their own clothes.

But the new clothes also make her happy. The swaddle she is wearing now is still dusty, and she can't stand the pink color.
