Chapter 4 Discovering Business Opportunities

Mo Wen finished the rice in his bowl, picked up his schoolbag and said, "I'm going to school!"

"Why are you still going to school!" Mo Tingting glanced at him sideways, "Look at your second sister-in-law, she is still a top student who has been admitted to university! There is no politeness or humanity at all! I think you shouldn't bother! Why not? Go to the fields early and help big brother work!"

"I don't! My hand is for holding a pen, not a hoe!" Mo Wen walked to the door carrying his schoolbag and happened to bump into Gu Anran who was coming back.

Gu Anran handed a lunch box to Mo Wen, "Your lunch."

Mo Wen mechanically took it and opened it. There was a layer of rice in the lunch box, with a chicken drumstick and a large piece of chicken breast on top of the rice.

Gu Anran handed the lunch box to Mo Wen, and she entered the room carrying a plate in her other hand.

It turned out that instead of carrying the chicken back to the house to eat alone, she went to the kitchen, cut the whole chicken into small pieces, and then brought it back to share with everyone.

Mo Wen's ears suddenly turned red. He blushed because although he didn't speak ill of his second sister-in-law on the table just now, he actually scolded her in his heart.

Mo Lei ate the chicken thighs as he wished, and the corners of his mouth were oily.Mo Tingting also got two pieces of chicken in her bowl, and she closed her mouth.

After dinner, everyone went about their business. Wang Shuzhen wanted to look at Gu Anran and her grandson. She was anxious about the work in the field, but she couldn't get out.

Gu Anran was wandering around the yard out of boredom. Wang Shuzhen didn't dare to go out when she saw this. She kept muttering in her heart, maybe she was looking for an escape route?

Mo Lei was squatting aside and playing with digging in the soil with a small shovel. Gu Anran squatted next to him and coaxed, "Leilei, can your little shovel be used by Second Aunt?"

"No." Mo Lei pointed to the big shovel standing by the wall, "Master, use that."

Gu Anran twitched the corner of her mouth and continued to coax, "But the second aunt likes this little shovel like Leilei. You play with the second aunt for a day, and the second aunt will buy you candies later."

"it is good."

Children in this era are very coaxed. As soon as he heard that there was candy, he immediately handed his beloved little shovel to Gu Anran.

"Be good." Gu Anran took the small shovel and squatted on the ground to dig.

Mo Lei surrounded Gu Anran curiously. In his opinion, Gu Anran was just playing around like him.

"Second Aunt, do you also like sucking on this honey pot?"

"No, Second Aunt prefers its roots."

This thing is Rehmannia glutinosa!You can take it to the drugstore and sell it!There are so many in this yard, and there must be many around here. If you save some and sell them, you can make a lot of money.

"Is the root edible? Why does it look like a sweet potato?"

"You can't eat this, it's medicine. Leile must not take it secretly."

"I know, the medicine is bitter."

"right……"

Wang Shuzhen was sitting under the tree drinking tea, her peripheral eyes glued to Gu Anran and Mo Lei. She was quite puzzled, why did Gu Anran shovel up all the honey pots around the yard?She also put it in a basket and carried it back to her room.

Leilei grabbed a lot of honey pots and ran over to Wang Shuzhen, "Grandma, suck some honey pots! The second aunt said that these honey pots were given to me!"

Wang Shuzhen took the honey jar from the child and sucked it in. It was sweet and tasted good.

She was even more confused. She didn't want the sweet honey jar, so why did she bring a bunch of inedible roots back to the house?

In the evening, Wang Shuzhen told Mo Bei, who was coming back from work, about Gu Anran's anomaly today. As soon as Mo Bei entered the room, he saw her playing with the roots of the honey pot.He took out a crumpled two yuan from his pocket and put it on the table and said to her: "This is the money I earned from doing odd jobs today. You keep it."

Gu Anran glanced at the two yuan on the table. It was a very shabby piece of money.How much torture does this money have to endure in your pocket to become like this?When you see this money, you can imagine how much work Mo Bei has done on this day.

When she was free during the day, she also chatted with her mother-in-law for a while, and got a rough idea of ​​the income level of this era.

My father-in-law works in a coal mine and doesn't come back more than a few times a year.A high-risk job like my father-in-law can earn 100 yuan a month.

And casual workers like Mo Bei, who has no fixed occupation and has to sell his labor, only earn more than one yuan a day.And Mo Bei could get back two yuan, saying

She has a good eye for seeing people, and Mo Bei is a very responsible man.He will work hard to earn money and take the money he earns home to his wife.

Gu Anran twisted a towel and walked up to Mo Bei to wipe his face. Mo Bei took a step back as if frightened, took the towel from her hand and lowered his head and said, "I'll wipe it myself."

"Then let me boil some water for you first. Can you take a bath and change out of these dirty clothes?"

"it is good."

This man is so easily shy!I wiped his sweat and my face turned red with embarrassment!Gu Anran thought of his trembling body last night, and her heart ached slightly.

Mo Bei is the husband she was assigned after her rebirth!She finally got such an obedient, sensible and good-looking husband, couldn't she protect him?That harmful Zhao Caiyun, she must take care of her!

Entering the kitchen, she first filled the cauldron with water and sat down to light the fire with confidence. After a while, the smoke in the kitchen made Gu Anran unable to open her eyes. She ran out coughing and was not playing in the yard. Upon seeing this, Lei ran to deliver a message to Mo Bei: "Second uncle! Second aunt set the kitchen on fire!"

"!" Mo Bei ran out immediately.

There was no fire in the kitchen, it was just that the firewood couldn't burn and there was smoke.

When Mo Bei ran over, Gu Anran opened the kitchen door to let out a cigarette. She leaned against the wall, covering her mouth and nose and frowning, her face and hands were all black from the smoke.

"How did it happen like this?" Mo Bei ran to her, took off the wet towel from around his neck and helped her wipe the black carbon from her face and hands.

Gu Anran said a little embarrassedly: "I can't light the fire on the stove."

"Then why didn't you call me?"

"I'm afraid you'll say I'm stupid." I'm also afraid of being suspected!How could a girl who grew up in a rural area not know how to make a fire?

Mo Bei looked into her eyes and said seriously: "From now on, if you don't want to do anything you don't want to do, come to me. I know how to do it. I'll do it. Just don't hurt yourself."

ah!My heart feels sweet, is this what it feels like to be pampered?

He had already wiped the black carbon off her skin, and Mo Bei was still reluctant to let go. He took the towel and rubbed her face for a while and her hands for a while.

The two of them were so close that Gu Anran couldn't tell whether it was her own heartbeat or his. Why was it beating so loudly?

The beautiful atmosphere is always easy to be ruined. Mo Lei squeezed in between the two of them and raised his head to ask Anran innocently: "Second Aunt, you promised to buy me candies. When will you take me to buy candies?"

"Ah, yes!" The little guy has such a good memory!

"Let's go now!" Gu Anran held Mo Lei's little hand and winked at Mo Bei, "Then you have to boil the water yourself. I'll take him to the supply and marketing cooperative before it gets dark."

Mo Bei's expression was hesitant to speak, and finally he said: "Then come back quickly."

"Ah."

Was Mo Bei hesitant to speak just now because he was worried that she would run away?

Only when she arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative did she realize that was not the case!Mo Bei didn't want her to come to the supply and marketing cooperative because Zhao Caiyun worked in the village supply and marketing cooperative!
