Chapter 233 (Second update)
Zhong was very pleased.

Look at her daughter, who can afford a donkey.

Li Jiaoniang was surprised, "It's only eight pennies? It's not expensive, but the average donkey costs ten pennies." Chunya is so powerful, so good at bargaining?
Chunya smiled and said, "Miss Jiaoniang, it was Chen Erbo who helped negotiate the price. If it wasn't for him, I would have been cheated by the store."

"Oh, did Uncle Chen help?" Li Jiaoniang asked in surprise.

Chunya then told everyone about the process of buying a donkey in the market early in the morning.

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Unexpectedly, Uncle Chen also knows about livestock."

Luo Cheng came over and came to see the donkey, saying, "This is his side job. Usually, if any animal in the village is sick, he is invited to look at it. If he says the donkey is good, then it is good. Chunya is lucky today. , thanks to meeting him for help."

Zhong was most afraid of being in debt, so she said, "Chunya, if you meet him some other day, you have to thank him well."

Chun Ya smiled and nodded, "Yes, I see."

Li Jiaoniang helped Chun Ya, fed the donkey for a while, and then went home with Luo Cheng.

The two walked and chatted.

"Brother Luo Cheng, let's help Aunt Xia Six more in the future. It's not easy for her to take care of two children alone." Li Jiaoniang said.

She didn't know how divorced women lived in the world in ancient times.

But she had seen the divorced women of that modern life.

There are always some people in society who put themselves in the position of saints and point out divorced women.

He likes to look at them with strange eyes. Obviously it is a man who is at fault, but he will also blame them on their heads.

Heaven is unfair.

This is the Song Dynasty. Although it is not like the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which insisted on setting up chastity memorial archways for women to prevent them from remarrying, the circle of activities of women is still too small, and the space for living is too small.

Luo Cheng nodded, "Well, I thought so too. After the tavern opened, Aunt Six helped us a lot."

The two returned home, finished the unfinished work in the field, packed up, and went to the tavern in the market.

Now that Chen Laiqing is watching the tavern, they are much more relaxed.

Chen Laiqing will boil the tea in advance and let it cool down.

Pour it into a large teapot and put it on the table outside for passers-by to drink tea.

When Chen Laiqing didn't come, it was Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng who did it. They had to get up early in the morning to go to the tavern. Now, they just need to arrive in the middle of the morning.

This way, they can take time off to work on the fields.

The door of the tavern was open, and Chen Laiqing was sitting in the pergola, chatting with two passers-by.

He looked relaxed, with a smile on his face.

Much more cheerful than before.

"Uncle Chen." Li Jiaoniang greeted with a smile.

Chen Laiqing stood up, "Are you here?"

He smiled and walked towards the carriage.

Luo Cheng and Li Jiaoniang would bring some dishes to the tavern every day.

Chen Laiqing helped, and moved the vegetables on the carriage down, basket by basket.

Today is not a market day, there are not many dishes, just some easy-to-preserve vegetables, such as cucumbers, winter melons, and eggplants.

Li Jiaoniang didn't bring any vegetables with leaves.

If there are few people in the afternoon, it will be ruined if you can't finish the food.

However, in the tavern, she soaked soybeans, mung beans and black beans, and made bean sprouts by herself.

Now that the weather is hot, bean sprouts grow quickly, and a large clump can grow in four or five days.

Li Jiaoniang looked at the clean and tidy tavern, and said with a smile, "Uncle Chen, since you came to the tavern, Brother Luo Cheng and I have never held the broom, it's too clean."

"Isn't this what I should do? You give me a place to live and pay back the money. Of course I should do this." Chen Laiqing smiled embarrassedly.

Luo Cheng came over, "By the way, Uncle Chen, I have to thank you today for helping Chunya buy a donkey."

In terms of closeness, Luo Cheng and Chen Laiqing have the same relationship with Chunya.

But because of Mrs. Luo, Luo Cheng and Chen Laiqing's relationship became weaker, and they got closer and closer to the Zhong family, and they automatically treated Chun Ya as their own sister.

Chen Laiqing waved his hand and smiled casually, "It's not worth anything. I was wandering on the street and I happened to see that girl buying a donkey. She didn't have much money and wanted to buy a good donkey. I chose it for her." I picked, I picked a cheap donkey, but that donkey is a bit skinny and needs to be raised properly."

An idea came to Li Jiaoniang's mind, and she said, "Uncle Chen, I think so, you hang a sign on the outer wall of our tavern, which says: Livestock treatment, earn some money for yourself."

Chen Laiqing waved his hand, "How can this be done? We are still helping here, so we can get busy here? No, no, no."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Our tavern is only busy for a while at noon. There is nothing to do in the morning and afternoon. Isn't Uncle Chen free?"

Luo Cheng also said, "Didn't Uncle Chen have nothing to do this morning? We all went to the market?"

Chen Laiqing looked ashamed, "I went to the market to see if there are any fresh vegetables for sale, and it's not for fun."

Li Jiaoniang smiled generously, "That's not important, let's make it so. Brother Luo Cheng and I are also busy working in the tavern and farming for a long time? The tavern business is originally busy and idle for a while. It’s okay to make other money in your free time.”

The couple encouraged Chen Laiqing to start a side job, and Chen Laiqing was moved by the words.

"Sure, I'll write a sign later, go there when you have time, this place is busy, I'll take care of it first." Chen Laiqing said.

After helping Luo Cheng and the others share and wash the dishes, Chen Laiqing wrote a sign and hung it in the herbal tea shed.

As soon as the sign was put up, an old man came up and asked, "Who knows how to look after livestock?"

Chen Laiqing nodded, "Me."

"Oh, that's great. We've found someone. My cows won't eat grass. It's been a day. Can you show me?"

"Where is your cow?"

"Not far, in a field one mile away from here."

Chen Laiqing said, "Just wait a moment, I'll tell my boss."

Li Jiaoniang heard that someone asked Chen Laiqing to treat Niu'er, she said happily, "The sign was put up in time, Uncle Chen can go, it's not yet noon, so he's not busy."

Chen Laiqing said happily, "I'll come back as soon as I go. It's only one mile away, not far away."

Seeing Chen Laiqing leaving with the old farmer, Li Jiaoniang smiled and said to Luo Cheng, "Uncle Chen is capable, why don't we find him a wife?"

She wants to piss off the Luo family.

The son-in-law that your family does not want will be regarded as a rarity by others.

The corners of Luo Cheng's mouth twitched, "It's better to worry about yourself, and take care of other people's affairs first."

Li Jiaoniang blinked, "What am I?"
