Zhang Heng helped out a lot by sending Wen Xiu and her son back. Luckily, he managed to move all the stuff into the house. However, when he saw that Wen Xiu was close to being a retainer, his mouth gaped wide open and he didn't say anything for a long time.
When he bought from Wenxiu, he thought her family would be rich!
However, he never would have thought that …
Wenxiu remembered Zhang Heng's kindness. Seeing that it was almost noon, she asked him to stay for a meal before going back.
Heng refused without a second thought!
Not only did Wenxiu not keep Zhang Heng to eat, she did not even give him the money she held in her hands. Zhang Heng said. His grandfather was the one who helped him out, so how could he accept money?
He did not accept the money nor did he eat anything. In the end, Wenxiu stuffed two meat buns into his bowl for him to eat on the way back.
After Heng left, Wenxiu asked Song Xiaoyue to stay for a meal. However, Song Xiaoyue, who was in a hurry to send the meat home, also shook her head and rejected Wen Xiu's good intentions. Furthermore, he did not ask for the two meat buns from Wenxiu.
Tree and Tong Tong had never seen so many things in a house before. The two little guys were standing foolishly in front of the door of the living room, not recovering for a long time. It was only when Wenxiu took out the steaming hot meat bun and waved it in front of their noses that the two of them regained their senses after smelling the fragrance.
"Wow, it's Steamed Bun!"
"Big brother, Steamed Bun?" Is it a meat bun? "
When Wen Xiu heard the excited voices of the two children, she also saw the happy faces of the siblings, which made her nose sour. She sniffed with her nose and quickly handed the steamed bun to the child, telling him to eat slowly.
Having grown up, this was the first time the two little fellows had eaten meat buns. Their faces were full of curiosity, as if they were eating some kind of delicacy. When Wen Xiu saw this, she could not help but feel a pang in her heart.
Wenxiu also ate a meat bun. It was filled with fresh meat from the cabbage, and it was fresh and tender from the cabbage. The meat foam was delicious, and when chewed on, it had a lot of thin skin and was tender from the cabbage.
Fresh!
It was too delicious!
Wenxiu had eaten a meat bun and two steamed buns with white faces. However, the child was given two meat buns each.
The three of them had eaten and drank to their heart's content. It was already noon. At this moment, the sun finally broke through the clouds, shining down on the earth. In the distance, the rice fields were reflecting a golden light. The water was sparkling and the colors were dazzling.
Wen Xiu put the leftover steamed buns and steamed buns away and hid the meat she had bought. Then, she returned to the living room and began to pack up the items she had bought. The two kids had already climbed onto the brick bed and sat down obediently.
Now that his family had bought new things, he had almost bought all of the daily necessities. However, Wenxiu was troubled while cleaning up. Pots and pans were easy to put away, but now that there was suddenly one hundred catties of rice and ten catties of flour, where would she go to clean up?
Sometimes the sun would come out of the clouds, and sometimes it would stick its head out and flaunt its enthusiasm. The dark clouds were floating not far away, ready to blow at a moment's notice. If he did not put the rice away properly, he would have to wait until it rained and let the rain leak out at home. That would be troublesome.
When Wen Xiu thought of this, she pondered for a moment before hurrying out.
In the past few years, it was Wang Yanqing and Liu Dahe who helped fix the leak in the roof. But this year, Wenxiu did not intend to trouble them any further. After she left her room, she went to Sister Fang's house.
When Wen Xiu was calling for Lady Fang outside the courtyard, she had just finished her work in the kitchen and was preparing to return to her room to coax her child to sleep.
When Lady Fang heard Wenxiu's voice, her face suddenly lit up. She no longer had the time to coax her child as she ran out. When she saw Wenxiu, she quickly smiled and said, "Wenxiu, I heard that you came back in an ox cart and even bought a cart full of things. I was busy washing the children's clothes, but didn't see anything. Is what they said true or false? "
Wenxiu originally wanted to ask her to borrow the stairs, but she didn't expect that news of her buying something would spread so quickly. Without hiding anything, she nodded and said, "I did buy some, just some pots and pans."
Regardless of how many she bought, or how many she bought, it was Wen Xiu who bought. Since she spent money, the villagers of Xitang Village had no choice but to gossip.
Lady Fang loved to gossip too, so when she heard Wen Xiu admitting it, she could not help but take a deep breath. With a friendly face, she said, "Then did you sell your family's red dates to earn money? I knew the red dates you picked can sell for money, big and sweet, good stuff! "But what a pity …" Saying that, she couldn't help but curl her lips, "Me doesn't have the spare time, otherwise I would definitely be able to get some, I definitely wouldn't have let you take advantage of me alone."
Wenxiu had told Song Xiaoyue about the "source of the money", so she didn't hide it from Lady Fang. She recounted how she had earned the money, then said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, can I borrow your staircase to use you? It's going to rain soon. If we don't make up for it on my roof, I'm afraid we'll freeze to death … "
In the end, the Fang family not only borrowed the stairs, but also sent two big bundles of fresh straw for this year.
Wenxiu was deeply grateful and sent back a kilogram of red dates.
The Fang family was overjoyed.
When Wen Xiu carried the stairs to her house, she saw that there were at least 20-30 people gathered at the entrance of the courtyard. Men and women, young and old, all familiar faces. At least half of the villagers in Xitang Village were interested in watching the fun and gossiping.
"Aiyo, isn't this Wenxiu? I was wondering why no one answered after a while. "
"Wen Xiu, come quickly."
"We've heard about your matter from that Wang family's daughter-in-law. Is it true or false?"
"Fuck you, what are you asking? "It's true or false. We'll be rich from now on."
"That's right, those things on the ox-cart today, they won't come for less than one tael of silver!"
The villagers all rushed towards Wen Xiu, surrounding her in the middle and talking nonstop. If it weren't for her carrying the staircase on her shoulder, everyone would have been hit by the stairs and pulled along by her.
Wenxiu ignored the others who were minding their own business and glanced at the tightly shut courtyard door. Immediately, she heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Tree was getting smarter and smarter. As long as her mother was not at home, he would shut the courtyard door.
This was something he had done very well!
The villagers had all specifically come to find Wen Xiu after lunch. After all, Song Xiaoyue said it was easy to get rich. They were able to earn a few taels of silver, which was more than enough for a family to live comfortably for a year.
Wenxiu was a villager from Xi Tang Village, and everyone else was no outsider. Learning how to earn money from her, wouldn't they also earn some money later on to buy meat and get a toothpick?
Several villagers asked Wenxiu to tell them the way to earn money as if it was a natural thing to do. However, they did not receive a reply for a long time. They could not help but lower their faces and grumble that Wenxiu was unscrupulous and only cared about them, selfishly and selfishly.
Among these people, the one who shouted the most was Li Lu!
Li Lu was a cunning person and was afraid of being taken advantage of by others. After he shouted at Wen Xiu, he shouted at the villagers with a fierce expression, "This belongs to our Li Family, and it has nothing to do with you. "All of you, hurry up and go, go, go …" As he said this, he actually raised the carrying pole in his hand, scaring the surrounding villagers into taking several steps back in order to avoid him.
