Chapter 140 Chapter 140 Thank you for your kindness
I don't know if what the three of them said in the kitchen was overheard by Li Changhui outside.

When they dried their hair, Li Changhui also washed all their clothes, even Lin He's.

After drying it under the eaves, when she came back with the wooden basin, she didn't even look at it, and said directly: "From tomorrow, Yu'er will also learn to wash clothes, and I will wash my own clothes in the future."

Li Yu was startled at the time: "Why?"

His parents have always helped him wash his clothes, so why did he suddenly have to wash them by himself?

Li Changhui finally looked him in the eye: "I see the one I caught recently, how much did you sell it for in total?"

Li Yu knew this, and he remembered it clearly: "A total of more than 600 wen, and Haoer and I have more than 800 wen."

Li Changhui nodded: "That's it. You keep all the money you earn yourself. Why can't you wash your own clothes, not to mention the thin clothes you wear now, and the weather is hot, so washing clothes is also convenient."

Li Yu couldn't help pointing to his younger brother next to him: "What about Hao'er?"

"He's still young, wait another two years, and he has to wash himself."

"But I don't know how to do laundry yet."

"If you don't know how to learn, start learning from tomorrow."

Having said all this, Li Yu could only bite the bullet and nod: "Okay, I get it."

Lin He didn't dare to talk when he was next to him. Seeing Li Changhui like this, it was obvious from the beginning that he had already planned to distribute the money he caught and sold to his brothers.

She didn't expect to start tricking her son so early. She was afraid that if she spoke up, the flames of war would be brought to her. When the time came, she would say, what should she do?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Li Changhui's eyes fall on him.

Lin He was shocked immediately and stood up: "What's for dinner? If you cook porridge, do you want pancakes?"

In fact, it was still early, but because of the rain, the sky looked dark, as if it was night.

On the contrary, Li Changhui was a little puzzled, and the little cook had a strange reaction.

But he still explained: "Don't worry, it's still early, we'll do it later, if you're hungry, you can have some porridge first."

He thought that Lin He was in a hurry to cook because he was hungry.

Lin He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to speak, when Li Changhui pointed to her hair: "Turn it up, be careful of being burned."

The little cook's hair has also been raised recently. Not only is it black and shiny, but it is also much more beautiful than the withered yellow thatch at the beginning. It would be a pity if it was burned.

"Oh."

Lin He rolled up his hair and saw that Li Changhui had carried Li An out and started teaching his brothers to read outside the house, so he was sure that the sponsor didn't intend to 'trick' her.

Rest assured, I tidied myself up, and then followed out, trying to find something to do.

When I went out, I saw a bamboo basket in the corner, and there were some cicadas in it.

Probably because the arrests were too harsh a few days ago, many places were searched, and the number of arrests has been less these days.

In addition, Lin He was inexperienced for the first time, and the two children had to teach their mothers, and they had just started, and they went home because of the rain, so this time, they didn't actually catch many.

They were caught in the morning, and Li Changhui sold them at noon, and now there are only fifty or sixty of them.

But if you eat it, it's still a bit too much.

Their family has been eating for several days in a row. Li Changhui, Li Yu and Li Hao each have five, and Li An has two, only seventeen.

It's not that I'm reluctant, but I'm afraid that eating too much will be bad for my health, especially for children, who may get angry and have nosebleeds if they eat too much.

These little guys are still alive, and they are still crawling around in the basket. Lin He has been watching for so many days, and there are not too many in the bamboo basket at the moment, so he is not afraid anymore.

But I still felt a little guilty when I took it directly.

So she took a chopstick, counted seventeen of them, put them in a bowl and fastened them with a plate, they could be eaten this evening.

Just when Li Changhui had finished teaching the children to read, Lin He asked him, "Brother Hui, the monkeys are cheap these days, that's all, and it's still raining, so I'm too lazy to make another trip. What should I do?"

A few days ago they sold three for a penny, but now they sell five for a penny, and there are only thirty or forty in the bamboo basket, and it is too troublesome to go all the way.

Li Changhui thought for a while: "Let's send it to Uncle and his family. Changsheng's daughter-in-law has helped take care of Li An these days. It's too much money to give. Send this over. They can eat what they want. If they don't want to eat, they can eat it with a few nephews." If you catch them, you can sell them together."

Lin He was about to nod, when Li Yu looked over from the corner of his eye, and asked him, "What's wrong?"

Li Yu thought for a while: "Mom, Dad said we caught him, and he will give us the money after selling it."

I get it, I don't want to give it away.

However, Lin He didn't directly tell his parents, but said euphemistically: "When we are working, do we need you to take care of my younger brother?"

Li Yu nodded: "Yes."

"Then this time, is it because of Aunt Xiuling's help that you can go to the mountains every day to catch cicadas and sell them for so much money?"

Li Yu continued to nod: "Yes."

"Your father runs twice a day. It's not worth it to help take the cicadas to the town and sell them. Aunt Xiuling helps take care of your younger brother so that you have time to catch the cicadas. Shouldn't you thank her?"

Li Yu understood: "I know mother. Thanks to Aunt Xiuling, Hao'er and I have the opportunity to catch cicadas and sell them for money. We should thank Aunt Xiuling."

"Then you know this?"

"Give it to Aunt Xiuling." Li Yu said, then turned and ran back to the room.

When he came out, he was still holding something in both hands.

"Mother, give this to Aunt Xiuling as well, thank her for helping to greet my brother."

It turned out to be five copper plates.

Lin He took it after a moment of hesitation: "Okay, let's buy candy for my future siblings."

"But Yuer, you have to remember that although money can repay others for their help, it can't completely offset the kindness of others' help. You know, not everyone will go to so much trouble for such a small amount of money."

Li Yu seemed to understand, but still nodded: "Okay mother, I will remember."

As for whether he still understands it now, Lin He is not particularly worried. As long as he remembers it, he will always understand what it means in the future.
