Chapter 43 Jealous?

Jiang Xuan saw that she had eaten little today, frowned and asked, "Why don't you eat?"

Su Xinci pursed her lips, "I'm tired of eating this every day and have no appetite. You can just eat it."

Jiang Xuan looked at her face and was silent for a moment, "I'm going to the city tomorrow afternoon. Do I need to buy anything?"

Is he going to the city again?

Su Xinci didn't ask any more questions. Thinking of her own needs, she said, "Buy some silkworms, buy more."

Although the silkworms I bought earlier were only a dozen days old, they had already begun to spin silk because they had eaten the mulberry leaves nourished by the spiritual spring water.

She had to raise more silkworms before winter came and make enough winter clothes for a family of three.

Jiang Xuan nodded.

The next morning, after Su Xinci finished making mung bean soup, she went to Su Chengqing's house and gave her aunt instructions on how to make mung bean soup tender and beautiful.

Now the aunt looked at Su Xinci. The more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She couldn't help but talk more. She chatted with her about today's gossip in the village. She said that in the morning, the village chief took Guo Tingting and Xu Zhaokai to the city to get the certificate. , that rude old man ignored everyone, he really didn't like his son-in-law.

Su Xinci felt funny in her heart. The village chief had liked Jiang Xuan before. With such a comparison, Zhao Kai was a loser. It was strange that the village chief could like him.

The two chatted and the mung bean soup was ready.

Not long after Su Xinci returned home and waited, the buyer came. After bringing her mung bean soup, he drove the carriage to the door of her aunt's house.

The buyer paid the bill in front of the two of them and handed the money to Su Xinci at first.

Su Xinci waved her hand, "This is the mung bean soup made by my aunt. You pay with her first, and then I will settle with my aunt."

The buyer happily handed the 12 yuan to the aunt.

This was the first time that my aunt had made so much money with her own hands. Her hands were shaking when she took the money, and her eyes turned red unconsciously.

After the buyer left, she immediately counted out four yuan and handed the rest to Su Xinci, "Aci, I took three yuan of the cost and left another yuan. The rest is fine. for you."

The man in her family earned a full work point for a day's work, which was only about one dollar, so she was content to keep one dollar.

Su Xinci smiled and took the four dollars from her other hand, "Auntie, you have to be honest in doing business. Let's just do what we agreed to do. I only want the commission I agreed to, and I don't want it if it's not mine. . Okay, I have to go home and tidy up and prepare lunch. You should hurry up and get busy. It’s time for the children to finish school.”

She walked a few steps, seemed to think of something again, and added: "By the way, auntie, don't just give the mung bean soup left in the pot to the children. You are not in good health. Drinking more of that stuff will be good for your health. You Only when you are in good health can you take better care of your children.”

"Hey, okay, Aci, please slow down."

After Su Xinci walked away again, her aunt looked down at the eight yuan in her hand, tears falling from her eyes. She had been poor for half her life, and she never imagined that she would one day earn five yuan.

This is all Su Xinci's blessing. She will never forget Su Xinci's great kindness to her family in her life.

She wiped away her tears and turned around to go back to the house when she saw the sister-in-law next door coming out of the house and walking towards her with a smile.

She stuffed the money into her pocket casually, and the sister-in-law next door whispered: "Why did you ask two children to grind so many beans for you so early in the morning today? This is to sell mung bean soup with Su Xinci." ah?"

Aunt Su's family smiled: "Yes, sister-in-law."

"Isn't her mung bean soup made with secret water? You don't have secret water, how did you make it?"

"I bought it from A Ci and made mung bean soup. I gave A Ci five cents per pound." My sister-in-law was dumbfounded!

"So expensive?"

Aunt Su shook her head, "It's not expensive. We sell this mung bean soup made with secret water for [-] pounds."

This was what his man had told him when he came back yesterday. Su Xinci said that whenever anyone asked, she would tell the truth. Although she didn't understand Su Xinci's intentions, she knew that she was right to listen to Su Xinci.

Su Xinci did have her own intentions in doing this.

The supply and marketing cooperative's car comes once every three days. Rather than hiding the fact that she and Aunt Su's family were making mung bean soup, it would be better to let people know about it openly.

What's more, she is really lazy. She can do some jobs for a few days to keep her fresh, but after working for a long time, she is really tired and she is tired of grinding beans.

Think about it carefully, maybe there is an easier way to make money?
Jiang Xuan came back before noon. After eating a few bites of food, he rode his bicycle to the city.

Su Xinci watched Jiang Xuan leave, becoming more and more suspicious. What on earth was he doing so mysteriously in the past few days?
Thinking that Meng Gourd must have some unspeakable secret, she retracted her thoughts. Since it was a secret, she shouldn't pry into it and went home to take a nap.

Su Xinci entered the courtyard and saw the lunch her sister was eating. She really felt... a bit vegetarian and really wanted to eat meat!
She rolled her eyebrows and went into the house to put the sheets and pillow towels from the two rooms in the basket. "Sister, I'm going to do the laundry. You can finish cleaning and sleep for a while before going to work."

Su Xinci got up immediately, followed her and said honestly, "I'm going to wash up."

"No, I not only wash clothes, I also want to catch fish, so don't worry about it."

As she said that, she ran out quickly and came to the place where Zheng Bin lived next to the educated youth point. She shouted at the door: "Zheng Bin."

Zheng Bin had just finished eating and went into the room to sit down. When he heard Su Xinci's voice, he came out immediately.

"Sister-in-law, why are you here? Do you have anything to do with me?"

"I'm going to wash clothes in the river and catch fish by the way. Didn't you say last time that you asked me to call you when I go to catch fish again? Are you going?"

Zheng Bin likes to go hunting in the mountains and fish in rivers. "Go, go, sister-in-law, wait for me while I get some tools."

The two of them walked happily towards the river. Along the way, Zheng Bin showed off his experience of spearing fish before, saying that he was a real fishing expert.

This noise is comparable to Su Xinci!
Su Xinci took him to the place where he washed clothes last time. Because it had rained heavily a few days ago, there was obviously more water in the river than last time, and the flow was also faster.

Zheng Bin stared at the river for a while, frowning and feeling depressed, "There are no fish. The water is so big, it seems like it won't work."

Su Xinci doesn't think so...

She moved two stones, one for sitting on and one for rubbing clothes, and then said to Zheng Bin who was standing on the shore: "Don't worry, wait a few minutes before talking."

After she said that, she took out the sheets and started washing them.

Zheng Bin was not idle either and walked up and down several times.

Nearly 10 minutes passed, and just when he was about to give up and go back to work, Su Xinci, who was more than ten meters away, suddenly shouted to him: "Zheng Bin, come on, come on, the fish is on!"

Su Xinci followed the last time and put her feet in the water. As she expected, the spiritual spring water on her body worked to attract fish in the water, and not just one or two.
