Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 75 He is nothing
With Nian'er behind her back, Yang is weeding in the yard and watering the vegetable seedlings.

Hearing the knock on the door, he froze.

"Who?"

"Sister, it's us!"

Oh, it's Fu'er and Xi'er!Yang hurriedly dropped the hoe and ran to open the door.

Pulling Huo Xi over, looking left and right: "Why are you here today? Why did you buy so many things?" He helped them bring things in while talking.

"Go to the city to buy some things, and then see my mother and Nian'er." Huo Xi looked at Nian'er on Yang's back, and took his little hand.

"Mother and Nian'er are fine, don't worry about us."

Yang Fu closed the door, together with Huo Xi, he untied Huo Nian from Yang's back, and looked at Yang's strap strangely: "Sister, when did you buy this strap?"

Huo Xi hugged Huo Nian, and pressed his cheek against him, seeing his happy and lively appearance, she was very happy, and looked at the straps.

Mrs. Yang glanced at her siblings, and said: "This strap is convenient for carrying Nian'er on your back, and it doesn't delay your work. These days I have been using it to carry Nian'er around, making neighbors I figured it out. Several kinds of vegetables at home were sent by kind neighbors."

"Aren't the neighbors all scholars? Are scholars still growing vegetables?" Yang Fu was a little surprised.

"Scholars eat wind and drink dew? People bring their family members or servants with them. Every family grows vegetables in their yards. Even the vegetables are brought from their hometown."

After hearing this, Yang Fu clicked his tongue a few times.It's strange that scholars also grow vegetables.

"How is your father?" Yang asked Huo Erhuai again.I haven't seen him for a few days, and I feel a little uncomfortable.

"It's all right. Dad also asked me to bring the money to mother. If there is no such cloth on the boat, I would want Dad to come with us."

"Even if there are no things on the boat, our boat is still there. If it is rowed away, where can we find it?"

While talking, Yang sorted out the things that Huo Xi and Yang Fu brought, "Why did you buy so many things, including salt and sugar. What is this for?"

Huo Xi hugged Huo Nian and sat under the eaves, watched Yang's tidying up her things, and said, "Let mother help me make some food and sell things."

"Doing food and selling?"

Yang Fu nodded while helping tidy up, and said happily, "Sister, guess how much money we have earned these days?"

"How much money can we earn? Our boat is bigger than others, and others can earn twenty or thirty yuan for a trip. It would be great if we can double or triple it. How much more can we earn?"

"Sister, you can't guess. Not only did we earn a lot of money from work, but we also sold a lot of wine and shrimp. In the past few days, we have earned seven taels of silver!"

"What, seven taels? Just a few days?"

Yang Fumeng nodded, very happy.

"Those people rent our boats to transport food, and they are bored sitting on the boat. Knowing that we have wine, they order some wine to drink, and when they have wine, they want to eat some snacks with wine. We only sell wine and wine. Shrimp earn more than the money for transporting grain.”

Yang's jaw almost dropped to the ground in shock.

I thought that the groceries on the water would not be able to be sold these days, and everyone took care of the work, worrying about transporting food northward.Didn't expect to be able to transport food and sell wine and food at the same time?
Yang looked at Huo Xi, and after getting Huo Xi's affirmative answer, she pressed her chest, and her heart jumped out happily, thumping, thumping, and thumping non-stop.

"I also asked my father to go to Shuangquan Village to transport some wine tomorrow. I also bought some wines above the middle level, so I can definitely make more money."

"My God, our family is living their lives! Mother told your father that renting such a big yard is only for me and Nian'er, it's a waste. I feel sorry for the three taels of money."

Unexpectedly, in just a few days, my man brought his two children and earned the money back.

"That's great, that's great." Yang really muttered.Face full of joy.

"Sister, Xi'er and I bought some more seasonings. You can make some snacks to go with the wine at home. If you can't make them, use the money to buy some outside. When the time comes, we will go to Huai'an so that we can bring the money to sell on the boat." .”

"You don't need to go out to buy some snacks to go with the wine, Xi'er, tell mother that mother will make it."

Huo Xi thought, it shouldn't be difficult to fry soybeans, peas, and broad beans, and Yang's should be able to make them.only other...

Then he told Yang about the snacks he was going to make.

"Mother, if you have time every day, go to the fish market street to have a look. If there are those small whitebait, small fish, shrimps and crabs, take some back and fry some small dried fish. We can sell it too."

"Other snacks, dried bamboo shoots and the like, if you don't know how, you can buy them in the shop, and we can make a difference. You can also go to the restaurants outside to see what they sell. Ask outside, Where did you buy those snacks, and what are the prices. You don’t have to buy too much, let’s try to sell them first. If they sell well, we’ll make plans in the future.”

Mrs. Yang nodded while listening: "Okay, mother understands."

With Nian'er in her arms, Yang was planting vegetables at home, wandering around, not knowing what to do.After hearing what Huo Xi said, he immediately knew what he should do.

She planned to go to teahouses and wine shops with Nian'er in her arms tomorrow.

Huo Xi handed over all the money he earned in the past few days to Mrs. Yang.

Holding the heavy purse in her hand, Yang felt deeply moved.When did the family have so much silver deposits.Well, that's great.

I took half out of my purse, "Mother takes half, and you take the rest back. You have to buy it outside and spend it."

Huo Xi put the money in her hand back into her purse, and pushed the purse back to her.

"Mother, you can keep it. In case you see something good, you can buy it. Father still has a few taels, which is enough for us to spend. And I still have money I borrowed from Guanshi Huo. "

"Mother still has a few taels on her body."

After renting the small courtyard before, there was eight taels of silver left over, and they were divided into two shares. She and Huo Erhuai each took four taels, and now they gave her all the seven taels they earned.

"Your father still collects wine."

"Father doesn't recycle a lot here. I just ask Dad to pick some good ones and buy a few baskets back. We still have some on the boat, which is enough. No matter how much there is, there is no need to throw it away for the yamen servants."

Upon hearing this, Yang put away her purse.

After hiding the purse, he happily cooked dinner with Huo Xi and Yang Fu in the small courtyard, and the three of them had a good meal.

When the news that Huo Xi had gone to the small courtyard was sent back to Mu's residence in the middle of the night, Mu Yan was still in a daze.

In his daily life, he got up early to practice exercises, went to the Imperial College during the day, and returned home after school. His life was monotonous and boring.

And that little liar, fishing and selling fish, selling crabs and butter, and running a grocery store on the water, lived a much more interesting life than him.

His grandfather said that he was the future Marquis of Xiping, and he had been trained almost harshly since he was a child.But within a few years, my grandfather died.

Uncle, his stepfather said that he was the future Marquis of Xiping, and taught him how to manage the Marquis Mansion... But within two years, his stepfather also died.

When he was a child, he was ignorant and didn't remember anything, so he was taken to the southwest.Now, he's back.

Before, everyone held him up.Now, he is nothing.

　Happy holidays everyone.We are vigorous young people with four talents, we are high-spirited, and we have stars and seas in our eyes~
