Chapter 81 Agree
Qi Chuyun asked doubtfully: "Is this soil?"

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "Yes, these vegetables originally grow in the soil, and they must be inseparable from the soil. Adding this nutrient solution will ensure that everything you deliver will be hydrated!"

Qi Chuyun turned his head and thought, "Is that so? What he said seems to make sense. This vegetable does grow in the soil. No matter what, just follow the master's instructions. The other masters also told him that he can't Ask more.”

So he smiled and said: "Okay, I know, it's not too early now, so let's leave first and come back when the next crop of vegetables is harvested!"

The old man politely persuaded him to stay: "Brother Chu Yun, it's not early now. You can have dinner at my house at noon. It's not too late to hit the road after you're full!"

Qi Chuyun declined politely: "Thank you, old man. We won't bother you. We have to hurry up and deliver these dishes to major restaurants as soon as possible. We have our own dry food."

The old man did not stay and said: "Brother Chu Yun, please pay attention to safety along the way. You must come to my house for dinner next time you have time, so that we can fulfill our friendship as landlords."

Qi Chuyun said: "Okay, for sure, I will definitely come to bother the old man when the time comes."

The pedestrians were sent to the carriage team. The children in the village saw so many carriages at once and happily gathered around them.

Qi Chuyun and his men turned the carriage around and drove towards the road outside the village.

After saying hello to the villagers, the Xu family returned home. The whole family was sitting in the main room. Except for Xiaoliu who was playing wildly outside, he hadn't come back yet...

The old man said: "This first time we sold more than 1 taels, and the family also contributed. Each room was given 20 taels of silver to keep as pocket money, and the rest was kept in the public house."

The three sisters-in-law were very happy after hearing this. They accepted the money without any refusal this time, and they were very happy...

The old man changed the topic and said: "But don't forget who brought these. You must keep your heart and don't be blinded by the money in front of you. The long-term is the way to survive, you know?"

The three couples immediately replied seriously: "My son (daughter-in-law) knows!"

Mrs. Zhang said: "Dad, don't worry. I know that our family relies on Qibao today. We all know it in our hearts. Now that our family's life is better and the children can go to school, I am already satisfied. Don’t worry, dad, you won’t have any thoughts that you shouldn’t have!” The other two daughters-in-law nodded in agreement.

The old man said: "You and I can rest assured. I am just saying this today to remind you that the best thing is to not forget your original intention!"

Qibao said: "Grandpa, please stop talking like this. The money I earn is not the result of Qibao alone. Think about it, no matter how much I have an idea, it's useless if my family doesn't support me. I usually don't worry about anything. It's all my uncle." My second uncle and the others are busy, and everyone in the family has contributed a lot."

Mrs. Wang also said: "Okay, let's not talk anymore. We all just need to remember what the old man said today. It's getting late, so hurry up and make lunch."

The three daughters-in-law followed their mother-in-law to the kitchen and began to solve the family's stomach problems.

...............

It rained heavily the next day, and the old man agreed that the workers would wait until the rain stopped to work, so basically every household closed the door and hid in the house.

The women were mending clothes, while the men were chopping firewood and weaving bamboo baskets. They were much more leisurely than usual.

After Uncle Xu saw off his brother and the others, most of his clothes were wet when he came back. As soon as he pulled the carriage into the house, Ms. Wang saw it with sharp eyes and found a dry handkerchief to help her son wipe the water from his hair.

While wiping away, he said: "You're right, it's raining so hard and there's nothing going on at home. If you go to the barbecue restaurant to take shelter from the rain, you won't be so wet!" Mrs. Zhang said: "Head of the house, hurry up and change clothes. It’s so warm, I feel so cold just looking at it!”

Uncle Xu agreed and followed his wife into the house to change clothes.

When Uncle Xu came out, the whole family was busy with their own work. He said, "Dad, it's raining so hard outside that it won't stop for a while. The road in the village is too difficult to walk. Look at the carriage. It's covered in mud, and the horses can't even pull it."

Mr. Xu said: "Yes, the roads in the village are like this when it rains. When you go out, your feet will be covered with a thick layer of mud."

Uncle Xu said: "So I let the children go to the barbecue restaurant to sleep at night, and I have already said hello to the shopkeeper!"

The old man said: "It's okay, Wenwu and Zhiyong will take good care of my brother."

Uncle Xu said: "The wheels of the carriage are full of mud. We need to wash them off after the rain stops!"

Mrs. Wang said with some worry: "Even if the rain stops, this road will not be plowed in one day. I am still a little worried about the children staying in the town for a few days!"

Qibao said: "Grandpa, I want to build a road!"

The whole family looked at Qibao in surprise. Mr. Xu said, "Qibao, why do you suddenly want to build roads?"

Qibao said: "This is not only for my family, but also for the sake of the villagers. Also, I will build a winery in the future, and it will be filled with jars. The dirt road is uneven, and it is easy to knock the jars. Damn it, and the food team will be better off in the future!"

The whole family was silent for a long time. What Qibao said makes sense, but the road is not short. Let’s not talk about the money issue, but where can we find so many people to build the road?
The old man said: "Qibao, it's not that grandpa disagrees. Building roads is also a good thing, but where can we find so many people to build roads?"

Qibao said: "There should be people who specialize in road construction! Otherwise, who built the big roads in the town? We can just ask villagers from other villages for help and just pay them. I think they will be willing!"

The old man slapped the table hard and said proudly: "Okay! Today our Xu family will do something good that benefits the country and the people. It will be a blessing for everyone in the family, not to mention it is also for the good of our own family! Old man I agreed!"

Qibao knew that grandpa would agree, and said with a smile: "I know that grandpa, you are a grandpa who understands righteousness. Others are not as heroic as you!"

The old man laughed out loud at the praise, turned to his family and asked, "Do you have any opinions? Feel free to speak out!"

Uncle Xu said: "This is a good thing, I agree. Our family has made some money anyway, so it is appropriate to do good things!"

Mrs. Zhang said: "I have the same idea as the head of the family. I agree with my father-in-law's decision. This is also for the good of the children. They can go home even if it rains in the future!"

Xu Laoer said: "Brother and sister-in-law agree, my wife and I support your decision!"

Xu Laosan and his wife agreed even more. This was proposed by their daughter. They would not object. They could also accumulate blessings for their daughter. Why not? There would be money in the future, but not everyone has this blessing!

The old man said happily: "You are all good, and you did not disappoint me. I never thought that I could do something so beneficial to the villagers. In the next hundred years, I will be able to explain to my ancestors!"
