Chapter 34
Mrs. Cui now thinks of Zhiluo saving lives in the town in the morning.

Her daughter-in-law has a really good temperament.

This saved two people in a row.

Mrs. Cui said with a smile: "My family's Zhiluo is really good. Since she married Hejin, life at home has obviously improved, and my mood has also improved."

What Mrs. Cui said was the truth.

Mrs. Zhu has a good relationship with Zhiluo's mother, Mrs. Ye, so naturally she wants to speak for Zhiluo.

At this moment, seeing Mrs. Cui's expression of being very satisfied with Zhiluo, and her expression did not seem to be fake, Zhu Shi felt relieved.

Mrs. Cui followed her words and said that she came here to buy sugar beets, and she would charge them at the market price of one penny per catty.

Upon hearing this, Zhu's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "Sister Cui, don't lie to me, you are talking about harvesting beets?"

Their family planted some beets, and the harvest was good. They harvested a lot of beets. She planned to sell some of them in the town to subsidize the family.

Unexpectedly, not many people buy beets for a penny or a catty.

If you stay in town all day, you may not be able to sell some.

After a few times, she simply didn't go to town, and put the beets at home for her own use.

But now that the weather is getting warmer, it's not good to leave these beets unfinished.

She thinks the beetroot is delicious to cook, but if she eats it every day, it will be enough.

So when Mrs. Cui mentioned the acquisition, she was very happy and wondered if she heard it wrong.

Old Mrs. Cui smiled and said: "I have been taken care of by you on weekdays, and it is too late to be grateful in my heart. How can I tell you lies, they are all true."

"I don't want to buy beets, so I want to come to see you first."

The Zhu family beamed when they heard this, as Li Zheng's family, if anyone in the village has anything to do, they will naturally help.

In addition, she also likes Mrs. Cui's temperament and loves her, so she will inevitably help her a little bit.

I didn't plan anything at all, but at least it was good to be known by others, and I was very happy in my heart.

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Zhu said straightforwardly, "I'll go to the cellar to get as much as you want."

The head of the family and her two sons have all gone to work in the field, so she is the only one at home, and she will also go to the cellar to get things.

This is the slack season, and after a while, she will go to the field to help with the work of growing food and vegetables.

During this time, she grew some vegetables in the vegetable patch in the yard.

Madam Cui smiled and said, "How much can you sell?"

Mrs. Zhu opened her eyes wide and said in shock, "Could it be that you take as much as I sell?"

Although shocked, Zhu couldn't help being a little excited.

Both beet and cabbage have high yields, and every household grows them, and they are not worth much.

She grows a lot of beets.

If all of this is sold, how much money can be made? Thinking about it, Zhu became excited.

Mrs. Cui said without ink, "All accepted."

Zhu's smile showed all her teeth, "Wait, I'll go to the cellar to get it."

Almost every household in the village dug cellars in the kang holes, which is convenient for storing vegetables.

The cellar is warm in winter and cool in summer, and because of the cold weather in winter, the vegetables are frozen.

Mrs. Cui said: "Let me help you."

Zhu did not refuse either.

Mrs. Zhu brought Mrs. Cui into the house.

Mrs. Zhu went in through the small hole under the kang, walked down the steps step by step, and then took out a sack of beets.

Mrs. Cui helped to continue at the entrance of the cave and took it out.

Then Zhu took some more.

Zhu's family also happened to have a scale, and they weighed a total of [-] catties.

"Sister Cui, I've taken it all out."

Mrs. Cui was taken aback, "Aren't you saving some for home?"

Mrs. Zhu said with a smile: "There are cabbage and radishes at home, so I can't eat anything, I have to eat beets."

Beets can be sold for money, and Mrs. Zhu can't wait to sell them all to make money to subsidize the family.

Beets are valuable, so naturally they don't eat them.

Even something as delicious as eggs, because it can be sold for money, every family is reluctant to eat it, and saves some money to subsidize the family.

But I can't live without it.

Mrs. Cui thought so too.

Even she had the same idea as Zhu Shi.

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, "That's true!"

Mrs. Cui gave Mrs. Zhu one hundred and three.

Mrs. Zhu didn't ask for the three Wen, "Just erase the change."

"One yard is worth one yard." Mrs. Cui felt that she couldn't take advantage of it.

Mrs. Zhu said straightforwardly: "You see, you have collected so many beets from me. It is right to erase the odds. If I go to the town to sell them, they will not be able to sell for a price. Maybe I will buy them for a catty. If you give away a catty, it may not be sold, you, don't be polite to me."

Mrs. Cui no longer struggled.

Because there are a lot of things, Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Cui can't carry them.

Mrs. Zhu pushed out the cart at home, put the beets on it, and helped Mrs. Cui take it back.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Mrs. Zhu smelled a strong fragrance.

Zhu Shi smelled the fragrance and felt that his saliva was about to flow out.

But she resisted asking and didn't go in. She helped Mrs. Cui move her things down and hurried back.

Zhu knows that although there are many residents in the village, everyone's life is relatively poor, and they are reluctant to eat delicious food on weekdays.

Even if it's delicious, it's just a little bit.

If she asks, sister Cui and Zhiluo will inevitably get her something out of face.

She can't do that, it's not easy for everyone, but you can't take advantage of it.

Besides, she was very happy when she got one hundred Wen, and the smile on the corner of Xi's mouth could not be restrained.

The eldest son is 15 years old, and he has reached the age of marriage. If he saves a little more, he can marry the eldest son a wife.

The conditions in their Donghe Village are not very good, and many daughters of other families are unwilling to come to Donghe Village.

Even if their family is Lizheng, there is no advantage, and money is still useful. If you give more gifts, you can help the eldest son marry a more virtuous wife.

She didn't want to do anything, just thought that her daughter-in-law would be more diligent and diligent, and live a good life with her son.

With children, she can also help look after the children.

Thinking of such a scene, the smile on Zhu's dark face deepened.

……

When Jiang Zhiluo was peeling the beets in the yard, she heard the movement outside and hurried out to help Mrs. Cui move the beets in.

"Mother, did you collect so much in such a short while?"

Looking at these beets, Jiang Zhiluo seemed to see a pile of sugar and was very happy.

Mrs. Cui said: "This light was collected at your Aunt Zhu's house, and your Aunt Zhu wiped away three catties of change..."

Mrs. Cui told Jiang Zhiluo in detail.

"I thought your Aunt Zhu would ask us why we bought so many beets, but your Aunt Zhu didn't ask anything."

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Aunt Zhu is very sensible, and she usually doesn't like to inquire about other people's affairs."

It was also because Uncle Li Zheng and Aunt Zhu had good temperaments, handled things well, and were very prestigious in the village.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at these beets and said, "Mom, let's collect these first this afternoon, let's make brown sugar with these beets first."
