Travel to ancient times and make a fortune

Chapter 52

During the busy autumn harvest, Li Xiao gained two little fans, Li Dabao and Li Erbao, the grandsons of an old carpenter.

Because the old carpenter's family has two acres of paddy fields next to Li Dashan's family, when their two eldest grandsons, aged nine and ten, saw Li Qingzhu and Li Xiao digging mud sliders, they also dug together.

When the two children followed Li Qingzhu to dig out the mud slider, Li Xiao was there to spread the delicious food made from the mud slider to them. Then, a friendship was established.

While eating and resting under the tree at noon, the two daughters-in-law of the old carpenter's family came over to ask Li Yuan if the mud slider was really edible.

Li Yuan didn't hide his secrets. He taught him all about stir-fried mud sliders, mud sliders soup, pan-fried mud sliders, spicy and sour mud sliders, etc.

On September [-], the work in the fields of Li Xiao's family was basically finished, and everyone had a rare day to relax and rest.

Li Dashan, who usually doesn't talk much, made a surprising statement and proposed to buy two autumn clothes for everyone in the family!
This year, life has been better, and the children have grown up very fast. Because the weather is not so hot now, but when the weather gets cooler, it will be easy to find that the children's clothes and pants are all shorter!
Now that the family is not short of money, there is no need to impoverish yourself for food and clothing. Even if you are as slow as Li Dashan, you also find that it is time to buy new clothes!
Li Yuan smiled after hearing this: "If you don't tell me, I will mention it soon!"

"Our family only bought more clothes last year, which are winter clothes and spring clothes. Forget about summer, we can't save autumn clothes!"

Li Dashan naturally nodded in agreement, especially when he saw that his daughter was now wearing a summer dress made from the old clothes of the third child, he felt how ugly she looked!
Such a cute girl must be dressed up beautifully!

Li Xiao didn't know what her father was thinking. She didn't have much requirements for dressing. On the contrary, it was easier to do things if she dressed simply and neatly.

As the family was chatting, Li Xiao thought of what he said when chatting with the boys yesterday, and felt that there were some things that he should mention to his parents.

Dabao said that his father and uncle will go out to the town to do part-time work in the next two days.

His grandfather said that as he got older, he would be unable to do carpentry work in a few more years, and his father and uncle would not be able to do carpentry work if they did not do it.

His aunt just found out a few days ago that she had a baby, and together with his sister, there will soon be four children in the family. After just farming, the family won't have enough money to cover anything.

However, his father and uncle are working part-time jobs in the town and cannot stay at home. Both he and Erbao will miss their father.

Li Xiao knew that people who work part-time in towns usually only get one day off a month. On weekdays, the host family provides food and accommodation for ten to fifteen cents a day.

Generally, there are many young people in the family, and one or two people will go out to work as part-time workers to earn some copper during the off-season, but the old carpenter's family...

The carpenter's grandfather is over 50, the carpenter's grandmother has bad legs, the young men in the family only have two uncles, and one aunt is still pregnant with a baby. It is indeed not a good time to go out to do part-time work at this time, but as an outsider, it is hard for her to say anything.

However, she has a relatively good relationship with her family after all, and now that her eldest daughter and her second son are also friends, she always wants to help as much as possible.

In addition, she is also thinking about letting her third brother go to school next year. It is time for her to take time to learn some knowledge about this world.

It would be a bit too tiring for them to do the work in the field, and it would be too tiring for them to do the work in the garden. She didn't want to tire her parents out just to make money!
