Chapter 50: better health

Chapter 50, more healthy

"You have a very good relationship."

Zhou Hong saw the interaction between Qiao Yi and the two.

Thinking of the men in her family who were competing for beauty, Zhou Hong envied Qiao Yi very much.

She could see it. Although she didn't see all of Joey's husband, she could see the harmony between them just by seeing the two of them.

"It's pretty good, but sometimes I'm disobedient, and I can't be beaten or scolded. You are here today, otherwise that guy might have to beat me up again."

That's what he said, but Joey didn't show any anger on his face.

It's okay to scold Mu Xuan, it's good for physical and mental health.

Zhou Hong smiled without saying a word, looking at the mountains in the distance.

Seeing that Zhou Hong didn't speak, Qiao Yi was also happy to relax and concentrate on catching shrimps.

Soon Joey caught a basket of shrimp.

"After you bring the crayfish back, eat them as soon as possible, otherwise they won't taste good when they die."

"Um."

Zhou Hong nodded, and the two returned to the carriage.

Joy handed the basket to the coachman.

"I will come back in half a month."

Leave this sentence, Zhou Hong got into the carriage.

Watching the carriage leave little by little, Joey breathed a sigh of relief.

"My wife, why did you buy so many things?"

After clearing away the dishes, Mu Yun came down.

As a result, I saw mountains of cloth and those bags of cotton.

With so many things, Mu Yun was not happy at first, but dizzy.

Where do these go?

If it rains here, wouldn't everyone be blind?

"I thought that I would have money and a free horse-drawn carriage, and then I would go all out and buy everything I needed."

Qiaoyi scratched her head, and she also thought of what Mu Yun was worried about.

Mu Yun: "..."

Should he praise Joey for living a life?

"Let's move everything into the house first."

"Um."

Mu Yun nodded, this is the only way to do it now.

After walking back and forth more than ten times, all the cloth and cotton were moved into the house.

Looking at the full house, even the ground was piled up with things, Joey was a little depressed.

She was thinking too naively. It seems that they have to sleep in the shed outside these days.

"Dried shrimps sold for a lot of money this time, and people have ordered some. The demand is urgent. We need to dry out 100 catties of dried shrimps within fifteen days. So you have to work hard these few days."

Sitting on a stool outside, he took a sip of water before speaking.

"It's not hard work if you can make money."

It was Mu Chen who spoke first.

"I don't have to carry people behind my back anymore. I'll go catch the prawns in a while, cook them and start peeling them. When this batch of dried prawns is sold out, there probably won't be many crayfish in the river. If people know about it, they'll know about it. "

"I won't give you the money for Mu Yun's sale this time. It's a bit too much, and there are too many people in the family recently. Let me put it here first. When the house is built, I will give it to you."

The place where Mu Yun hides money, Qiao Yi is really speechless, as long as he has some snacks, he can find it.

But in order not to hurt Mu Yun, Qiao Yi didn't say anything.

"Um."

Mu nodded. He heard what Mu Xuan said just now, including the deposit, it was more than sixty taels. To be honest, he was not at ease if he was let here.

"Mu Qing, you don't need to save on firewood. First, burn the fire at home. When the time comes, I'll go to the hut, and I'll catch shrimps. Mu Chen, wash my newly bought dustpan first. Mu Xuan, follow me Catch the shrimp."

After assigning work, Joey drank the last sip of water in the bowl, then picked up the basket and went to the river.

Qiao Yi's side was very busy, while Wang Chun's side was full of doubts and curiosity.

If it wasn't for the fact that she had work to do, she would really have come to join in the fun.

First two carriages came, and then the pile of cloth piled up like a hill. After a trip to the river, the whole family got busy.

Then it started to catch fire, could it be cooking?

Joy put the caught crayfish into the pot and cooked them, and then the family began to eat.

After eating, start peeling the shrimp.

This time Qiao Yi also joined the ranks of peeling shrimp.

"Peel carefully this time, and try to keep the shrimp intact."

A pound of dried shrimp received a tael of silver from others, and Qiao Yi tried her best to do her best. This was a matter of credibility.

"Um."

"Um."



There is money to be made, and there is motivation to work.

During this afternoon, a lot of shrimps were peeled off.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Finally, when it was time to leave work, Wang Chun couldn't hold back his curiosity anymore, and walked over quickly, followed by other working women.

"Do you know this?"

Joy pointed to the cooked crayfish.

"I know, isn't this a monster, it hurts to bite people, this shell is very hard to eat, it's not tasty. What are you doing with this?"

Wang Chun was even more puzzled when he saw Mu Qing's quick shrimp peeling technique.

"This is not called a monster, it is called a crayfish, the shell is not edible, only the meat."

Joy was talking, and handed Wang Chun a crayfish meat.

Wang Chun took it with some hesitation, and put it in his mouth.

After eating, my eyes widened.

What was originally regarded as a monster tastes so good.

But how did Joey know?

"Is it delicious? Put the crayfish in the pot, add some salt water, and cook for a quarter of an hour. You can go back and try it."

Qiaoyi doesn't want to hide it now. If she continues to hide it, she has to do it quietly. If she does it secretly, she doesn't know how long she will get it.

"From what you've said, I really have to go back and try it. It tastes so good."

Wang Chun was immediately excited when he heard this.

Borrowed two baskets with Qiao Yi, and the group went to catch shrimps.

Wang Chun left in a hurry with his people, forgetting why Qiao Yi's family came to the carriage, bought so many things, and how this crayfish Qiao Yi knew about it.

As soon as Wang Chun left, Qiao Yi realized that the atmosphere around him was a bit wrong.

"Are you worried that they will steal our business if they find out?"

"No, no matter how many crayfish there are, they are not inexhaustible. I'm afraid there won't be enough for one hundred catties of dried shrimps."

Mu Yun said worriedly.

This thing is not his property, it belongs to the whole village, and others are entitled to eat it, but he is afraid that if everyone eats crayfish, there will be fewer and fewer shrimps in the river.

"So you are worried about this, don't worry, the news that this crayfish can be eaten will not spread so quickly. I guess we will finish building the house at the earliest. They are not stupid. Of course, you have to eat enough good things first. .”

Joe said indifferently.

Now Wang Chun and the others are working for her family. There is no time to go out and spread the word.

As for their family members, they will definitely keep it secret.

It's not that she thinks people are selfish. In fact, everyone wants to make a fortune in silence, and take advantage of silence.

"Second brother, what are you worried about, we just need to hurry up, they definitely can't compare to our speed of peeling shrimp."

Mu Xuan also opened his mouth to comfort Mu Yun.

"Well, we are hurrying up, getting up early, going to bed early, and trying to peel off enough before the house is built."
