MTL - The Reborn Lady is Farming-Chapter 9 shock
In the end, it was Shu Wanniang's cooking. She was no longer the young lady she was ten years ago. Her husband held her in his hand, but she couldn't always make her husband suffer and live in her own world.
Mu Shi took out all the money in the house and counted it. There were more than seven or five coins in total. He set aside the copper plates that were not enough for one. He sat cross-legged on the kang and stared at the seven or five coins in a daze.
Shu Wanniang came in holding her stomach and saw it, and asked, "Isn't it only six taels for tax? We have enough for our family, what are you worried about?"
Mu Shi frowned, "The price of grain in the grain shop in the town has gone up, I'm afraid the border is unstable." Mu Shi looked at Shu Wanniang's big belly and felt flustered, he said a little irritably: "How about we go to To the south to hide?"
"How can this be possible?" Shu Wanniang was shocked, "Xiaogong, it will be difficult to leave the homeland and come back again, not to mention that we have to spend money for everything, so what can we do with only a couple of dollars in our family's current money?"
Why didn't Mu Shi know? The wife is heavy and the son is in poor health. If they flee south, they must have a donkey cart, but now their family has nothing but a cart.
When you go out, even if you can use your own food, what about the food? There is also accommodation, and even the cost of entering the city. This item requires money. My wife's stomach is seven months old, and she is most afraid of bumps...
Ke Mushi is just panic, this is a kind of alertness when facing danger, he has never made a mistake.
Mu Shi's mouth was dry, so he poured a bowl of water, touched his wife's pointed belly, and gritted his teeth: "Then let's stock up more food, if something happens, let's run to the mountains."
Shu Wanniang lowered her eyes, "But there are also beasts in the mountains. What's more, our family has only one or two silver left after paying taxes. How much food can we buy?"
Mu Shi was a little discouraged, and his wife also needed to prepare a sum of money for childbirth. The last time she gave birth to a son, it was very dangerous, and she could not spend all the money in the family.
Shu Wanniang showed a smile, patted his hand, and said softly: "Pay the tax first, there must be a way to the car to the front of the mountain, the big deal, then we will just follow the people in the village."
"But your body..."
"My body is not as bad as you think," Shu Wanniang said with a smile, "I think it's not bad. When we have you to protect our mothers, we will always be better off than others." Shu Wanniang is not very worried, life is all about forced out.
Ten years ago, she would never have imagined that she would cook, become a female celebrity, go out to sell, even grow vegetables, and wash clothes by the river. At that time, she thought that such a life would be worse than death.
But when the real thing came, I felt that there was nothing wrong with this kind of life. I was physically tired, but mentally satisfied. After I got used to it, I didn’t feel tired anymore.
Now I feel that escaping is very painful, but when the time comes, it shouldn't be difficult to accept it. Shu Wanniang has always been lenient.
Mu Shi has always been very nervous about his wife, but he is not so optimistic, so he calculated in his heart that he would go to the county town tomorrow to sell all the furs in the family, and save more money at home for emergency.
Mu Bowen was shaking his head under the tree while holding a copy of the Three Character Classic, while Mu Yangling sat in front of the door listening to his parents' conversation in a daze.
What is the quick way to make money?
Mu Yangling pondered with his knowledge and experience of the past two lives, and the result was that the fastest way to get rich is robbery!
Mu Yangling twitched the corners of his mouth, threw the thought away, and sighed, leaving this profound issue to his father to worry about.
She just broke her fingers and carefully calculated what she is good at, and found that there is nothing but fighting. As for the various mechanical knowledge and knowledge about warfare that she learned in college, it has nothing to do with making money, not only does it not help. , it can be said that the things she has learned are of little use in this era.
Machinery manufacturing is based on stainless steel forging and various sophisticated machines, and in warfare, she learns modern and modern information warfare models, give her a radio, and she may be able to transform the monitoring and communication function, but in the What's the use now?
Guns and ammunition, give her time to explore, maybe she can make it, but making hot weapons in the age of cold weapons is undoubtedly a devastating blow to the people of this world, she has not been so mad.
So, to sum up, she is useless except for fighting and hunting. Cooking will only be a stir-fried vegetables and scrambled eggs, or stir-fry, only the kind of oil and salt.
Mu Yangling was ashamed, and felt that she had been ashamed for a lifetime, and she couldn't do anything for her family.
Mu Yangling was ashamed when Mu Bowen obediently called out "Uncle".
Mu Yangling came back to his senses and saw Liu Daqian standing at the door hesitating to enter.
Liu Daqian and Mu Yangling's eyes met, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Ah Ling, where are your parents?"
Mu Yangling hurriedly welcomed him in, "Uncle, my parents are in the house, come in quickly."
Mu Shi and Shu Wanniang in the house heard the voice and hurriedly put away the money. Mu Shi handed the things over to Shu Wanniang and said, "I'll go out to greet you."
Shu Wanniang nodded.
Liu Daqian is Mu Shi's uncle, so Mu Shi respectfully invited Liu Daqian into the house, and Shu Wanniang poured him a bowl of tea.
Liu Daqian went to the Three Treasures Hall for everything. He glanced at the furnishings in the Mu family's house. Seeing that he was still in the same appearance as his sister when he was alive, he didn't even buy a few tables and chairs. He sighed slightly. Not so good, although you earn more, you also spend more.
Married a young lady, she was spoiled, her eldest daughter was not bad, but her son was a medicine jar, and she had to take medicine every three days to see a doctor, but no matter how bad it was, it was much better than their family.
Liu Daqian clenched his hands tightly, and he couldn't speak with his mouth open.
Mu Shi said, "Uncle, if you have anything, just tell me, and I will definitely help if I can." Liu Daqian didn't come to their house very often, and he always called his grandson to call Mu Shi to Liu for anything. Jia went to say that during the New Year and the festival, I just asked the children below to come over and give gifts and return gifts. The last time I came was because Bo Wen was born, and he has someone who has successors.
Liu Daqian let out a sigh of relief, slumped his shoulders and said, "Stone, is your family's tax and silver ready?"
"Yes, a wild boar was caught in the trap this morning, so I prepared it."
Liu Daqian took a puff of dry cigarettes, his face was a little red, but he still said: "Your cousin cousin's tax and silver have not been settled, I also know that you are in trouble, the uncle came to ask, if you have money here just help them..."
Liu Daqian never asked this nephew very much, so it was extremely difficult to speak to his nephew.
Mu Shi was a little surprised, "Uncle, isn't your family paying food? Why do you have to pay taxes and silver?"
Liu Daqian sighed and said sadly: "This is not tax money, it is foot money. In the past, foot money was also food that could be paid, but this year, the price of food has dropped by 10%, and foot money is also required to be paid in silver money. Early in the morning, your cousin went to the Wai Lang's house to inquire, and the price of food is only four cents and twenty cents per stone, which is nearly a cent less than last year, and we are reluctant to sell it at a low price."
Mu Shi jumped up in shock, "Why is there so little? I'm going to town today to buy rice, and middle rice costs one or two or three coins..."
