I was the best old lady in ancient times

Chapter 22 A chopstick is easily broken
Originally, Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Wang were excitedly stroking the frame and the cow, thinking that they would not have to walk when they went to the town in the future, so they were very happy!

Then he saw his money-losing daughter, talking to her mother-in-law about saving a dowry, her expression changed immediately, she rushed over, first apologized to Ning Pengpeng, and then scolded Ning Mian'er.

Hearing Qian's repeated scolding of Ning Mian'er for losing money, Ning Pengpeng's face became darker and darker.

Seeing her mother-in-law's face darken, Qian became even more flustered, and couldn't help reaching out to poke Ning Mianer's forehead.

However, before the finger touched Ning Mian'er, Ning Pengpeng pushed her away.

"mother!?"

Qian Shi looked at Ning Pengpeng in panic, at a loss.

"Mr. Qian, how many times do you want me to tell you? You don't take yourself seriously and are willing to despise yourself. That's your Qian family's business. No matter how others treat your daughter, my daughter of the Ning family is Ning. The treasure of the family. If you dare to commit the crime again, you should go back to your Qian family early.

And these girls, if you really can't get used to them and don't want them, then I will raise them and take care of them.

However, when the time comes, don't even think about letting them take care of you as a mother in the future. "

Ning Mian'er's bright eyes were originally scolded by her mother, as if being poured by a basin of water, it was about to go out.

Now being protected by grandma, after hearing what grandma said, the light in her eyes lit up like a star in an instant.

"Third daughter-in-law, go and get a bag of beans for Mian'er. Mian'er, you can get as much copper coins as your aunt can get for picking up a bag of beans. You can keep this money for yourself, and use it as long as you want to spend it. Wherever it is useful.

As for the dowry, not only you, but also your younger sisters and cousins, grandma will also prepare a dowry for you all that is the same as your aunt.

However, in the same way, if you pick up beans uncleanly, if I find out, you will be punished like your aunt and your dowry will be deducted. Do you understand? "

Upon hearing her mother-in-law's assurance, Wang's face was overjoyed, this is the dowry of her own family Hong'er!

Hastily brought a bag of beans over, placed it in front of Ning Mian'er, and said with a smile.

"The daughter-in-law over there should thank Mian'er very much, let Hong'er, the younger sister, be honored by her, and get the mother's dowry for nothing."

"As long as you have a poor mouth, hurry up and cook. After eating, you have to make pastries."

Ning Pengpeng glared at Wang Shi, and then at her stomach.

"In the future, you will let the third child do the climbing and squatting."

After finishing speaking, without even glancing at Qian from the corner of her eyes, she turned around and went into her own room to calculate how much money she had spent these days.

After all, next, she has to harvest sugarcane!

Seeing her mother-in-law enter the house, Qian's face was as pale as a ghost.

Wang Shi glanced at her, then turned and went to the kitchen.

This made Qian even more suffocated, thinking that Wang was just joking at her.

It's just that, now that Mrs. Wang has a straight face in front of her mother-in-law, if she quarrels with her, she will inevitably be scolded by her mother-in-law again.

He looked at Ning Mian'er, the money-loser's daughter, and saw that she happily led her three younger sisters around the bag of beans, lowered her head and picked up the beans seriously, without even looking in her direction.

Qian couldn't help covering her heart, she just felt that this day would be impossible!

Originally, she thought that after the separation, she could be the master of the family, but in the end, it was her mother-in-law who had the final say.

My own husband can't beat a fart with three sticks.

The girls who gave birth to this group were not caring, and they made her worry as much as possible.

This made Qian even more determined that he must give birth to a son.

It's just that she is sad and uncomfortable, and only she knows it.

Ning Lao Er's thoughts were all on the newly bought cattle.

When Ning's second child returned to the house at night, Qian wanted to pull him to tell her inner distress and grievances, but the only response to her was her snoring.

Ning Pengpeng didn't care about Qian's thoughts, anyway, the warning had already been said.

Anyway, Xiao Wu seems to have nothing else to do besides picking up beans.

If Qian Shi is really so ignorant, at worst, he would take over the four little ones and let Xiao Wu take care of them, so as to save her from being idle all day long and causing some trouble when she goes out.

Ning Pengpeng was thinking, while calculating the accounts in his hand.

When the family was separated, I counted the money of Xiaosi and Xiaowu, and the total was 14 taels.

These days, the money earned by making pastries is about 30 taels.

I deducted 20 taels of money for buying the cow and the frame today, so now I only have 24 taels of silver left in my hand.

She also asked the third child to build the pulp mill, as well as the iron pot and ceramic pots bought by the fourth child. She reckoned that she would have to prepare at least ten taels of silver.

Then the rest became 14 taels of silver again!
Among them, nine taels are the money spent by Xiao Si and Xiao Wu to get married, and the money for the separation of the two of them, and the other five taels are her pension money.

Therefore, nine taels of silver among them must not be moved.

The only thing she can spend next is her five taels of pension silver.

However, according to her inquiries over the past few days, there are very few villages in their area that specialize in planting sugar cane.

On the contrary, there are many wild sugarcane forests in some wastelands.

Because no one cuts and eats them, those sugarcane forests grow more and more, leaving patches of waste.

Ning Pengpeng, who heard the news, grinned almost to the ears.

However, even if it is a wild sugarcane forest growing on the wasteland.

Occasionally, I go to chop some to eat at home, and that's not a big deal.

However, if a large number of them were chopped up and squeezed for juice, if someone found out, it might cause unnecessary disputes.

The best way is to buy the wasteland of the wild sugarcane forest.

There are eight or one mu of fertile land and two or one mu of dry land. To be honest, this wasteland is really given away to others for nothing. Others despise the effort to dig it. The land is full of intricate sugarcane roots.

But if someone really occupied these wastelands for nothing, they would definitely be talked about again.

Therefore, how to buy these wild sugarcane forests at the cheapest price is the top priority.

I don't know, is the five taels of silver in my hand enough?

"Enough, why not. Just, aunt, are you sure you really want to buy the ten acres of wild sugarcane forest land?"

When Ning Youzhi heard Old Madam Ning's words, he agreed without hesitation.

However, after thinking about it, after all, it was the relative who broke the bones and connected the tendons, and asked Granny Ning again solemnly.

Ning Pengpeng did not expect that when he came to Lizheng's house this time, things would go so smoothly.

She looked at Lizheng's old face. Although she was older than her, her seniority was younger.Thinking that since the separation of the family, he has been standing by her side to help him speak, since the other party treats him so sincerely, he might as well help him.

After all, a chopstick is easy to break, but a chopstick cannot be bent.
