My parents are omnipotent

Chapter 7 Why Are You Poor
Li Shi and Ye Jinkui talked to each other, and in a short while, they sorted out all the things that they needed to worry about.

As for the children in the family, Ye Anlan is recovering from a serious illness, and because of her special status, the Ye family and his wife are not willing to order her to do things, while Ye Song and the others are too young, so they can only help Li at best. Shi ran errands to deliver messages, delivered water and meals, washed vegetables and set fires.

In the end, the Ye family and his wife negotiated and the result was that Ye Jinkui was responsible for preparing materials, hiring helpers, and supervising building the house, while Li was responsible for borrowing the yard from the Su family, preparing meals for everyone during the house building, and taking care of several children in the family.

Ye Anlan felt that the workload of these two people, especially Li's, was too heavy, so she put down her steamed stuffed bun and made a suggestion, "Father, mother, you should find some trustworthy and close people to help. We don't want to use them in vain." , you can give them some food or copper coins every day."

Mrs. Li wanted to say "no" subconsciously, but she heard Ye Anlan say again: "It won't be long before winter, daddy, don't you need to hunt more game for money and to buy food? And our family Don’t you have to prepare firewood, cotton clothes, and quilts in advance?”

Ye Jinkui quickly made a calculation in his mind, "Yuan Niang is right, it is more cost-effective for us to ask someone to help."

Hire more people and build the house quickly so he can free up the time to go up the hills and hunt.

As for Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li has been embroidering a lot these years, and her eyes are already broken. In addition, she usually lacks food and clothing, so Mrs. Li's body is actually not very good.

Ye Jinkui loved his daughter-in-law, and rather than letting Mrs. Li work alone, so tired that she couldn't straighten her back, Ye Jinkui would rather spend some copper coins and ask the hardworking and capable women in the village to help with the cooking.

"By the way, mother, you should be able to buy eggs in the village, right?"

"Yes." Li looked up at Ye Anlan, "Yuan Niang wants to eat eggs?"

Ye Anlan nodded, "Can you buy some more?"

Mrs. Li has always been fond of Ye Anlan when it comes to food and clothing. When she heard Ye Anlan say this, she didn't think there was anything wrong at all, "Then mother will bring you back a basket tomorrow."

"One basket is not enough, you should exchange as much as you have."

Lee:? ? ?
Ye Anlan smiled and hugged her adoptive mother's arm, "From now on, our family will eat at least one egg a day to supplement our nutrition."

Mrs. Li doesn't know what "supplementing nutrition" is, but Mrs. Li understands the words "everyone should eat at least one egg a day".

She covered her heart, "Yuan Niang, our family"

"Our family will be rich in the future." Ye Anlan interrupted her, "Mother, take a look at Erlang and the others, and then take a look at yourself and my father. How thin have you all become? And me, me But not long ago, I just got seriously ill."

Mrs. Li stopped talking immediately.

"Don't worry, I can earn the money." Ye Anlan said, and brought over the two medical books, a long knife, and a pair of bows and arrows she bought in the county seat, "Look, I have prepared books and weapons. Well, I will dig more herbs in the future, and I will try to hunt with my father."

Li Shi's eyes turned red instantly, she covered her face and turned her head away, not wanting the children to see her tears.

Ye Jinkui held Li Shi's hand under the table, while Erlang looked eager to try, "Big sister! Big sister! I want to learn too!"

"Then learn together." Ye Anlan touched her younger brother's head, "Eldest sister will teach you."

One of the Ye family couple can hunt and the other can embroider. Even if the current situation is not good, they would not have been in a mess. The reason why they fell to this point is because the Ye family couple spent a lot of money The money is used to support Xiaoye Anlan.

They took out all their wealth, just to let Xiao Ye Anlan study with the female teacher in the town.

The female wife was originally an official's wife. After her husband, who was the seventh-rank county magistrate, passed away, she was kicked out by her husband's family on the charge of "Kefu".

She didn't want to listen to her natal brother-in-law's advice and leave the family again, to be the regular wife of a bad old man who is nearly half a century old and has many children and concubines. In order to open a school in his own home to accept disciples, he specializes in teaching female disciples.

In the countryside, there are few people who are willing to let their girls study. In addition, this female teacher is not a well-known talented woman. What she can teach those girls is only the most basic literacy. Cooking skills, rules and etiquette.

As a result, fewer and fewer country gentry and wealthy households are willing to send their girls to her. Xiaoye Anlan has been studying with her for four years, and she has met only twelve classmates in total. .

The number of people is small, and the master's income is not high. Of course, this is not a good thing for the master, but for Xiaoye Anlan and others who accept the master's teaching, the feeling of starting a small stove is of course far better than eating a big pot.

The money of the Ye family and his wife was not in vain. Although Xiaoye Anlan did not become a talented woman who was proficient in all aspects of piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and poetry, she learned to read, write, and cook well.

If they hadn't really run out of money, the Ye family couple would not bear the pain to take Xiao Ye Anlan home.

They originally thought that after saving a few years of money, they would send Xiaoye Anlan to his master to learn the rules and etiquette. After learning well, Xiaoye Anlan would almost get married.

It's just that they never expected that Xiaoye Anlan was pushed into the river by a girl in the village just a few days after returning home because she was protecting her sister.

***
The next day, Ye Jinkui and Li Shi went out early in the morning, while Ye Anlan started to exercise with her younger siblings according to the plan made yesterday.

She was carrying a small pannier on her back, holding a bow and arrow in her hand, and walking in the front with a long knife hanging from her waist, while Erlang and the others followed behind panting.

One of these little Doudings is young, and the other is really poor in physical fitness. After climbing the mountain for less than a quarter of an hour, the calves and feet of her two younger sisters have completely stopped working.

Ye Anlan had expected this, she asked the children to rest where they were, while she surrounded them and searched for medicinal materials in the surrounding area.

When she found it, she called a few children over and told them what kind of medicine it was, what its characteristics were, what effects it had, and how to collect it.

The children are very serious about their studies, but Erlang and Siniang's talents are obviously not very good. Ye Anlan can remember the content that Sanniang can remember after listening to it once, but Erlang and Siniang often fail to remember it after listening to it three or four times. live.

Ye Anlan didn't force it, after all, personal talent is all about luck.

After spending two hours in the mountains with a few children, Ye Anlan carried a small basket full of herbs and brought Erlang and the others home for dinner.

What Ye Anlan, who has eaten three meals a day all her life, didn't know was that in those days when Xiao Ye Anlan was not at home, Ye's family, like other families in the village, did not have such a thing as lunch.
