Chapter 6 Prodigal Daughter
"That's because if the price is not lowered, the landlord's family will probably not accept our jade pendant. We always have to give him a little sweetness."
Ye Anlan explained to Ye Jinkui in a low voice, "Although we can also go to other silver houses to ask prices, the problem is that we don't have time to inquire about the details of other silver houses. We steal jade pendants"
The respected old doctor only recommended Fangjia Yinlou to them, which shows that in the eyes of the local, Fangjia Yinlou is the most honest business.
Nowadays, the world is not good, and ordinary people are likely to fall into the trap if they are not careful. They were powerless, and instead of causing trouble for twenty taels of silver, Ye Anlan thought it would be better to sell the jade pendant to Fang's silver house.
After she explained this, Ye Jinkui stopped talking immediately.
Ye Jinkui actually understood what Ye Anlan said, but he just couldn't think of so much for a while.
"Eighty taels is enough for us to live on for the time being." Ye Anlan lowered her voice and happily told Ye Jinkui about her preliminary plan, "I have asked the little doctor in the medical clinic, and I know where there are cheap salt, food, Iron, cloth, and cotton. We can buy these first."
Ye Jinkui thought of the emaciated appearance of his wife and children at home, and suddenly became more eager to buy food than Ye Anlan.
Father and daughter followed the news Ye Anlan inquired, and drove the donkey cart all the way to buy.
Soon, Ye Jinkui and Ye Anlan had a serious disagreement on what to buy and how much to buy.
Ye Anlan wanted to stock up on as much salt as possible, but Ye Jinkui was discouraged by the price of salt.
Ye Anlan wanted to buy some soy sauce and vinegar, but Ye Jinkui felt that these two things were expensive and useless.
Ye Anlan wanted to buy two jars of wine for the New Year. Ye Jinkui smelled the aroma of the wine and said that although he was also very envious and tempted, "Isn't it a waste of money to buy such a useless thing?"
Ye Anlan wanted to buy 50 catties of white noodles, 50 catties of round-grained rice, and 50 catties of millet. Ye Jinkui said, "It's better to buy whole grain noodles, which is the cheapest."
Ye Anlan wanted to buy cotton cloth to make underwear for her family, and wanted to buy 40 catties of cotton to make cotton clothes and quilts. Ye Jinkui strongly objected, "Just buy coarse cloth. You don't need to buy so much cotton. Twenty catties is enough. You and your mother can use the old one."
Ye Anlan: It's not her style to spend eighty taels of silver and search and search, making herself live like a beggar.
In the end, under Ye Jinkui's strong disapproval, Ye Anlan insisted on buying five catties of salt, two catties of sugar, thirty catties of white flour, twenty catties of round-grained rice, twenty catties of millet, one hundred catties of miscellaneous grain noodles, and three bolts of fine cotton cloth. , six bolts of coarse Gebu, and thirty catties of new cotton.
When passing by wine shops, stewed meat shops, and various stalls on the street, Ye Anlan also bought two small jars of wine, two pieces of braised pork head meat, a pack of maltose cubes, four bunches of red candied haws, twenty freshly-baked Wok Pork Buns With White Flour.
In addition, she also bought two books, a knife, and a pair of bows and arrows.
The knives, bows and arrows are very expensive, and the total cost is about eight taels of silver. Ye Jinkui's heart was bleeding when he paid the money, but when he got the things, Ye Anlan said regretfully, "Although it's not very good, But it can only be used first.”
Ye Jinkui:
The eldest daughter who has been well-behaved and obedient for more than ten years suddenly became a prodigal son. If he hadn't worried that the eldest daughter was not his eldest daughter, he would have slapped her on the back of the head.
The father and daughter piled up the donkey cart, and drove the donkey cart out of the county with different thoughts.
Ye Jinkui was afraid that the cart full of things would be too conspicuous, so he deliberately made a detour and drove the donkey cart directly to the foot of the mountain.
"You are watching the donkey cart here, Dad is moving things to the cave."
Ye Anlan bit the candied haws and said vaguely: "You call Erlang down, so that I can move with you."
Ye Jinkui suddenly felt that his well-behaved and sensible eldest daughter was back, and he waved at Ye Anlan, "You don't need it."
Although the daughter was born with supernatural power, in order to hide her true identity, Ye Jinkui and his wife never used Ye Anlan's great strength once.
Ye Anlan sighed—having a pair of parents who think too much about you, sometimes it is really a happy and troublesome thing.
She sat on the donkey cart and waited for about two quarters of an hour before Ye Jinkui brought Ye Song over.
The father and son cooperated in division of labor, one person carried the heavy ones, and the other carried the light ones. After three trips, they moved all the things on the car into the cave.
Afterwards, while it was still dark, Ye Jinkui took a small jar of wine and a piece of stewed pork head to Lao Lizheng's house to return the donkey cart, and asked him to help choose a new piece of land to build a house, while Ye Anlan took his third sister Ye Wei's hand, go home to distribute candied haws to younger brothers and sisters.
Four bunches of candied haws, she first gave each of her younger brothers and sisters a bunch, and then forced herself to distribute four sugar-coated hawthorns to Ye Jinkui and Li Shi.
Mrs. Li couldn't resist her, so she had to put the four hawthorns with sticks cut off by her in a bowl, and waited for Ye Jinkui to eat them together when he came back.
Ye Jinkui came back a bit late. After returning the ox cart, he followed Lao Lizheng to choose his own homestead.
"The land assigned to us is at the end of the village, very close to the foot of the mountain." After washing his hands and face, Ye Jinkui wiped the water droplets with a cloth towel, "Because it is wasteland, Uncle Lizheng only charged us six taels of silver for the two acres of land."
Mrs. Li asked while cleaning up the dishes, "Then when shall we build the house?"
Ye Jinkui said: "Uncle Lizheng helped me look through the almanac, and said that it will be a good day in three days."
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief. In this case, they would not have to live in a cave during winter.
She asked Ye Jinkui, "Shall we build adobe houses? How many?"
"Three main rooms and three side rooms, the same as before."
Ye Jinkui didn’t want to spend too much money on building a house. Firstly, because his family was just sitting on nothing, and the money would be less if they spent a little.
In today's world, if your fist is not strong enough, it is better for you to be poor than to be rich.
Mrs. Li steamed the steamed buns and put them on the table, and served a bowl of rice soup for everyone in the family with a few grains of millet floating in the bottom of the bowl, "Then I will ask Aunt Su to borrow their yard for cooking tomorrow." .”
Villagers build houses. In addition to hiring craftsmen to spend money, more than 90% of other small laborers who do hard work are performed by villagers. These people are voluntary helpers. If you help my family today, I will help your family tomorrow. , there is no need to pay extra money, but it is inevitable to take care of the meal.
The Ye family lives on the mountain now, and it is inconvenient to entertain the villagers who are helping with the work for dinner, so the Li family made up the idea of other families in the village.
The first thing I thought of the Su family was because the house was at the end of the village when the Su family came here, so it was convenient for the Ye family to deliver meals to the craftsmen and villagers who were working. She has a very good relationship with Mrs. Li, borrowing her yard, at least Mrs. Li doesn't have to worry about someone playing tricks and messing around for a little gain.
