Chapter 43

We picked mushrooms all morning, and when we went back, we encountered a problem.Yesterday, Song Lao Er and the others only said that they would go pick mushrooms together, dry them in the sun, and sell them in winter.At the beginning, old man Song said that when he picked it up, he would put the mushrooms in the sun to dry at Song Laoer's house, and then he would share the money after selling them.

But when they came back, the others carried the mushrooms to Song Laoer's house, but Mrs. Li directly passed the mushrooms in her basket to Liuya's house and did not enter.When old man Song saw it, his face turned black.He stopped her directly, "What do you want to do, from the third family? Didn't the third explain it to you after going back last night, or do you not have long ears?"

Seeing Li's appearance like this, Song Laosan's face was also not good-looking.

"Father, if I don't carry the mushrooms I picked up, where will I put them?" Mrs. Li looked at old man Song innocently.

"What are you talking nonsense here? When I was talking to you last night, did you beat the cows and mosquitoes in your ears? You are talking nonsense, be careful that I will beat you up." Song Laosan listened to Li's words, and his face turned pale. All angry.Originally, these days he could not get used to Li Shi very much, and now she is the only one like this, he felt very ashamed.

Did Mrs. Li listen to Song Laosan last night?Of course I did.She was thinking in her heart that if the sale price was divided equally between several families, then the third bedroom would be a good deal, but if it was calculated on the basis of head count, the second bedroom would suffer a big loss if there were so many children in the second bedroom.Whatever Mr. Li eats, he just doesn't suffer.So, when she got off the mountain, she pretended not to know anything, and carried the mushrooms home.

Li's calculation was good, but he was stopped by old man Song.

Seeing that Song Laosan was about to beat someone, Mrs. Li was very frightened, so she had to follow in with a basket on her back.However, when she put down the basket, she was still muttering that their family was at a disadvantage.

Old man Song just heard these words, and he was furious.This family has been tossed by Song Zhang to make it look like a family, and now there is such a daughter-in-law. After a long time, with such a mother-in-law, no matter how deep the feelings of the brothers are, they will be wiped out by this mother-in-law.How many blood brothers, just because the family married a troublesome woman, the blood brothers acted like enemies, there are many such examples.

"Third son, go back and take good care of your wife. Don't let me hear about what's there and what's not." After the old man finished speaking, he ignored the others and went home directly.

And Song Laosan behind dragged Mrs. Li away.As for how to manage it, others don't know.However, it is very useful.In the afternoon, Li Shi never said anything about being disadvantaged, and he was no longer lazy.

Song Boss's family had no one to cook for them, so Mrs. He left their family and ate together.In case they go back to make food, it will be too late to enter the mountain in the afternoon.

Liu Ya picked up mushrooms all morning today, and in the afternoon she switched with Qi Ya. She took Eight Ah at home, and Qi Ya went into the mountains to pick mushrooms.Song Lao Er, who was not doing business, also followed into the mountain.

As soon as they left, Liu Ya first put away the dishes and chopsticks to wash, and then dried the mushrooms she picked up this morning.It took me a while to get these things done.

After the work was done, Liu Ya took Ba Ya out to the yard to bask in the sun.The sun was shining on her body, and she was lazy. After a while, Liu Ya wanted to sleep.

"Liuya, bring my younger brother here, I'll go wash clothes in the river." Suddenly Song Zhang's loud voice sounded, scaring Liuya's drowsiness away.When she opened her eyes, she saw Mrs. Song and Zhang standing in front of her holding Da Ying.

"I still want to take Yaya, where can I take two people?" How could Liuya be able to take the milk baby these few months.What's more, the clothes Dayang was wearing were so black that Mrs. Li couldn't bear to change them out and wash them. Instead of the smell of milk, his body smelled like urine.

"Your wings have grown hard, haven't you? You don't even listen to me? Be careful, I'll beat you up." Song Zhang scolded with a black face.Song Zhang's temper has improved a little these days, but when she saw that Liu Ya didn't listen to her, she remembered that she and old man Song would become what they are now. where to come.However, there is still a sliver of rationality left, if she makes a fuss again today, I'm afraid she won't be able to take advantage of it.

"Then you have to wash it quickly, otherwise, you won't be able to take two people with you." No way, Liu Ya carried Ba Ya into the house to put it away, and then took the Da Ying from Song Zhang's hand.

"I'm such an old man, so I don't need you to talk about it." Song Zhang said angrily, and left.

Liuya carried Da Lang back to the house, seeing the clothes he was wearing, she couldn't stand it.So I went to find out Yaya's clothes and pants, and changed them for him.Da Lang took off his pants and saw that his buttocks were all red, and felt that Da Lang was too pitiful to meet a mother like Li Shi.

This time Songzhang still kept his word, and came to pick up Dalang in half an hour.However, seeing Da Lang who had changed his clothes, Mrs. Song and Zhang looked at Liu Ya several times.Liu Ya is not guilty at all, if Song Zhang asked her why she changed her clothes, she would say that she changed her clothes for Ba Ya before.Anyway, she and Qiya have been taking Baya with her all the time, so it shouldn't be a big deal to be able to help change clothes.

However, Mrs. Song and Zhang didn't ask these questions at all. After looking at Liuya for a few times, they left with Da Ying in their arms.

Before dark, everyone came back.Now the family conditions are better, and under Liuya's strong request, they eat three meals a day.So while everyone was having dinner, Liu Ya said that she would tell the elder sister's family about the dried mushrooms.

Liuya originally thought that Song Lao Er would definitely agree with her proposal, but unexpectedly, Song Lao Er opposed it.

Liuya asked puzzledly: "Father, why? Anyway, this mountain is so big, our family can't finish it."

Song Laoer thought, no matter how smart Liuya is, she is still a child, and she should not think carefully about some things. "Liuya, you think our family is close to Damei's family. It's okay if you want to tell her family about the dried mushrooms. But we are all fellow villagers. Today we only tell Damei's family and not other families. You This makes other people think about us. What's more, it won't take long for us to hide the matter of drying mushrooms, and everyone will know. I'm afraid we don't need to say it by then, and others will know how to do it."

After hearing this, Liuya felt a little embarrassed.I think I'm smart, but I'm playing tricks.Not as thoughtful as Song Laoer.

Sure enough, the Song family ran to the mountain to pick mushrooms for two days in a row, which attracted everyone's attention.Your Song family loves to eat mushrooms, and there are many people, so you can pick up more.But the whole family mobilized and went to the mountain to pick mushrooms for two consecutive days. No matter how you look at it, this is unusual.

The Zhang family was the first to approach the door. Zhang Tiezhu had a strong relationship with Song Laoer, and he didn't need to turn corners when talking, and asked Song Laoer why he picked up so many mushrooms.

Song Laoer listened and laughed.He didn't intend to hide it from Zhang Tiezhu, and what's more, Song Laoer felt that Zhang Tiezhu was rich, so it was impossible for him to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms to make some money like them. "Tie Zhu, I'm not going to hide it from you. We went to pick up mushrooms and came back. We plan to dry them and sell them when there are no more mushrooms."

"How do these dried mushrooms taste?" Zhang Tiezhu had met him before, so of course he wouldn't ask at this time, can these dried mushrooms be eaten?The family has been working for two days, of course they can eat.

"Our family has tried it, and it tastes similar to the mushrooms we just picked up."

"How many dried mushrooms can one pound of mushrooms produce?" Zhang Tiezhu asked, and Song Laoer was dumbfounded.Liu Ya beside him was also dumbfounded, they only thought about drying the mushrooms into dried mushrooms, they never thought about this issue at all.

However, Liu Ya quickly recovered.Asked: "Uncle Zhang, why are you asking these? Do you want to collect mushrooms and dry them to sell later?"

After Zhang Tiezhu listened, he didn't answer Liuya, but kept staring at Liuya.Liuya felt a little guilty when she was stared at. She could act stupid and tender in front of other people, but she couldn't in front of Zhang Tiezhu.He had stayed in a rich family, and he had worked his way through it to get a job in charge, so he certainly wasn't as easy-going as Song Laoer and others.

When Liu Ya was about to be overwhelmed by his staring, Zhang Tiezhu turned around and said to Song Laoer: "Second brother, you girl is really smart, I only ask these few questions, and she already knows what I want to do. "

Song Laoer looked at Zhang Tiezhu in surprise, "Tie Zhu, you don't really want to collect mushrooms, do you?"

Zhang Tiezhu laughed loudly when he heard this, and then said to Song Laoer: "Your idea is indeed very good, and you may be able to make a lot of money. Brother, why don't you collect mushrooms, but go to the mountain to pick them up yourself?" , you can’t make any money in this way.”

"Uncle Zhang, you really like to joke. It's not that you don't know the situation of my family. We have the capital to collect mushrooms. Uncle Zhang, your family can do it. However, Uncle Zhang, although there are wild mushrooms all over the mountain , but it only happens when it rains." Liuya really wanted to raise mushrooms by herself, but she just didn't know how to do it.

Zhang Tiezhu smiled and said: "Girl, you have heard that rare things are valuable. Let's pass on this thing to those rich people, and those rich people will not miss this little money."

When Liuya heard this, she suddenly realized that Zhang Tiezhu's idea was to sell the expensive dried mushrooms to those rich families. Zhang Tiezhu had worked as a housekeeper in a rich family before, so he probably had this kind of connection.Otherwise, he wouldn't be so sure.

"Second brother, let's do it together." Zhang Tiezhu added another sentence because he was afraid that Song's family would not be able to pay. "If you can't afford the money now, I will pay you first. Your family will find the sales."

Song Lao Er waved his hands and said: "Tie Zhu, you will really start a business in the future, just accept my mushrooms at a high price."

Zhang Tiezhu laughed straight after hearing this: "Second brother, don't think that you have taken advantage of me. In fact, I have taken advantage of your family. If you didn't come up with sun-dried mushrooms, why would I want to do this business, so , don’t refuse, we’ll just settle it.”

Song Laoer still wanted to refuse, but Liu Ya stepped forward and said, "Then I will thank Uncle Zhang."

Seeing Liuya like this, Song Laoer couldn't say anything, so he agreed.

Zhang Tiezhu said again, "However, the second brother, the brothers will settle accounts clearly, let's write a contract."

Liu Yaben also wanted to write a contract, so that when the time comes, for some money, the hard-core brothers will become enemies.I still don't know how to bring it up, but I didn't expect Zhang Tiezhu to bring it up first.Liuya naturally agreed.Seeing what Zhang Tiezhu said, Song Lao Er couldn't object to it, so he acquiesced.
