134 Give Her Mother Some Confidence
Xiao Qing brought Lin Xiaozhi to his room to study. He wanted to teach Xiaozhi the basics so that he could pass the test.
Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi went to wash the dishes.
Without anyone else around, Liu Shi finally had a chance to ask her daughter.
“How much money do you have left?
!!
“Why? What do you want to buy?” She didn’t answer her immediately.
“No.” Liu Shi looked at Lin Xiaoyue. “I just want to check with you.”
“Qing’er and Xiaozhi need a lot of money to go to the academy, and we have to buy some things for the house from time to time. Tell me so that I know how to prepare.” Liu Shi stopped washing the dishes and looked at Lin Xiaoyue.
During the construction period, she didn’t have much time to do embroidery.
When her daughter’s business of selling cold glutinous cakes was settled, she had to start working.
Lin Xiaoyue understood what she meant.
“After settling the bill for the furniture and the stone mill, I’m left with 28 taels. But don’t worry mom, once I start the cold glutinous cake business, there will be income soon.”
Seeing that Liu Shi was still worried, Lin Xiaoyue thought about it and took out 20 taels of silver to give to her.
“Keep this. After the autumn harvest, give them to Xiaozhi and Qing’er for for school.”
She could already tell that her mother had a soft personality and no confidence.
However, as long as she was confident, her mother was actually quite smart.
Wasn’t that the case before this?
Her mother supported her unconditionally when she thought about cutting ties with the Lin family.
Even though she managed to convince the village chief by making himself look miserable, that’s the most she could do.
Therefore, she could not underestimate her mother.
What she had to do was to give her mother a sense of security, so that her heart could be at ease.
“When I earn more money in the future, I’ll give you an allowance,” Lin Xiaoyue continued.
She couldn’t give all of it to her because it would be difficult to get her to spend the money afterwards.
But she couldn’t not give it to her. Anyway, she would have to wait and see when the time came.
Liu Shi glanced at her daughter and put the money into her interspatial ring.
“Sure.”
It wasn’t that she had to hold onto her daughter’s money, but her daughter was wasting too much money.
If she saved some of it, her family could at least have some savings in case of emergency.
In any case, she had the interspatial ring, so no one could touch the money.
After washing the dishes, Lin Xiaoyue went to take care of the chili seedlings.
Then, she carried a basket, and prepared to enter the mountain.
She had previously found a few black locusts in the mountains. Since she had time today, she was going to use them to make shampoo.
There was not much of the shampoo she brought from her world left since everyone in the family had long hair.
When Liu Shi saw Lin Xiaoyue carrying a basket, she quickly asked her what she was going to do.
“Don’t worry, mom. I’m not going into the mountains to hunt, but to get some black locusts.”
When Liu Shi asked and learned the uses of black locusts, she immediately gave up the idea of embroidering a purse. She also took a basket and wanted to go with Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue had no choice but to let her mother follow.
Soon, the mother and daughter ran into Aunt Wang and Erya again.
The mother and daughter of the Wang family were preparing to go up the mountain to harvest wild vegetables. When they saw Liu Shi and Lin Xiaoyue, they quickly greeted them and asked them to go together.
Aunt Wang was a little surprised.
She never saw them going into the mountains to pick vegetables, why now?
