Chapter 53 Honey for Money
Xiaoxi took Liu Shi to the main room to look. Originally, there were only a few cracks in the wall, but now there are a few more, and each one is bigger than the other cracks. The largest one is on the top, which can hold several heads .

Mrs. Liu frowned: "It's just time to go to the market today, when we go to the market to buy some wooden boards, we will prop up and cover this place when we come back."

Xiaoxi: "???? Mom, you don't plan to continue living in this house, do you?"

"Going to the market today, when we go to the market after breakfast, just buy a few wooden planks to support it. Others' homes do it like this. However, Mother has a few taels of silver in her hand, which should be enough to build a house. When we go to the market today, Let's go buy a carriage and come back, and start building a new house when the weather clears."

Xiaoxi: "...." With her sensitivity to danger and the importance she attaches to life, she would never live in this house with so many cracked walls.

The eldest and the second were cooking, and the other little Douding went to scoop water out with gourd ladles, and many houses were flooded.

Mrs. Liu went to drain the vegetable field, otherwise the leaves of the vegetables would rot if they were soaked in water for a long time.

Xiaoxi ran around in several rooms with her little ripped skirt. She dug a pool in the space and poured some water from the room into the pool in the space. The pool in the space seemed to have a purifying effect. All the water that gets in becomes very clean, and all those sundries are decomposed into nutrients.

She ran through several rooms, and a lot of water in them was diverted into the space, and some water in the yard at home was also diverted into the pool of the space.

A few little Doudings were still wondering why the water in the house fell so fast, and the older ones reasoned with the younger brothers.

"We scoop water out, and the ground still absorbs water, so the natural water disappears quickly."

After breakfast, Mrs. Liu asked a few little guys to get ready to go to the market later. She was going to buy a carriage at the market. When the weather cleared, the house would be built at home, and the carriage would be used to pull things. It would definitely cost a lot of money to own a car at home. It would be better to buy a car for the family. If it is not in use, it can be leased to others for a rental fee.

When the family was preparing, Grandma Zhang knocked on the door and Mrs. Liu opened the door. Grandma Zhang handed it to Mrs. Liu with a bag of money.

"This is the money for selling honey. The person who received it was a rich man. Seeing that the seller was good, he gave it a full 40 taels."

"So much?" Liu was shocked, is honey so valuable? 40 taels of silver, in the past, it was a sum of money that she couldn't even imagine.

"Not much, not much, 40 taels is because we are in a remote place. If it were in the capital, the honey from your house would definitely be sold at a sky-high price."

Liu Shi came to her senses, and quickly took out a piece of silver from her bag and stuffed it into Grandma Zhang's hand.

"What are you doing?"

"Grandma Zhang, you have helped our family for so many years, use this ingot to buy some food."

"That's all. The honey you gave our family before is worth several taels of silver. If I take your money again, where will I put my old face? No, no, I can't accept this money. "Grandma Zhang said and pushed Liu's money back, no matter what Liu said, she refused to accept it. Seeing that Liu kept refusing, Grandma Zhang left directly.

At the gate, Mrs. Liu was left standing alone with a heavy bag of silver.

Xiaoxi went over to ask Grandma Zhang what she wanted from Liu Shi, and when Liu returned home, she put the bag of money on the table and told about Grandma Zhang selling honey.

The sixth child took out a silver ingot from his bag, imitated an adult, put it in his mouth and took a bite.
