The two finally decided to buy both the water tank and the wooden barrel.

The water tank is easy to clean and take care of, but it is too heavy and fragile if bumped, so I use a wooden bucket on the way back and forth.

When the two of them and the five children announced that they were going to sell rice wine, Yan Qiuxing was worried about not doing well, and Fan Jiang and Fan Hu were worried about losing money.

Only Fan He was in high spirits and said excitedly: "Then let's bring more bamboo tubes. Each bamboo tube costs two cents!"

He could tell that the people who bought the wine were people with plenty of money.

Unlike the shabby people in the village, they wear clothes of good material. People who are willing to buy more than 20 yuan a pound of wine without filling their stomachs don't care that a bamboo tube costs two pennies.

The other four children were a little excited when they heard that bamboo tubes could be sold for money.

"This year's harvest is good, the winter is cold, and the wine sells better than in previous years." Yan Qiu hesitated and said uncertainly.

Wine is made from grain, and in disaster years there is not enough food to eat, so even the court has to issue a notice to reduce the amount of wine;

In years of famine, food prices are sky-high, and even wealthy families in the capital must buy food first.

Fan He followed excitedly: "If the harvest is good, there will be more people buying it. Didn't the village chief grandpa say that? There will be a flood next year!"

If there is a flood, food will be in short supply, and no one will be willing to buy our wine, so we should seize the opportunity to earn money by selling wine this winter. This way, we can stock up on more food, and our family will not be afraid of a flood next year. "

The other four nodded in approval.

My parents had earned some money collecting chicken heads, rice and mushrooms before, but it cost money to build a house. They had to earn money quickly so that the family would not go hungry!

The five children reached an agreement and wished they could go home and make rice wine to sell.

Shui Qing saw that the second son Fan He had the strongest desire to make money, and he had a quick mind and a keen sense of business.

Well, it’s a good seedling. Let’s focus on cultivating it in the future.

As for the other four, I can’t see the areas I’m good at yet, so I’ll take a look at them later.

After deciding to make rice wine to make money, the family first rushed to the place where the ox carts were parked, paid the fee to get the ox carts, and went straight to the place where water jars and wooden barrels were sold.

On the road, I saw another rabbit seller. Six little rabbits were squatting in a bamboo cage, and I bought them together.

Water tanks and wooden barrels must be placed on the oxcart. Lambs cannot be bought today, and the piglets will be bought by Hu's father. After all, he is a butcher who kills pigs and often interacts with pig raising families.

He knows best which family's pigs are giving birth to piglets and which family's piglets are cheap.

With Bentou, the family is full of energy and can buy good things.

There were two water tanks, one large and one small, on the cart, five wooden barrels, a basket of odds and ends, and six little rabbits in bamboo baskets. The remaining open space was only big enough for one person to sit.

The family unanimously left Fan Hu, the youngest.

Others walked on either side of the bullock cart.

As soon as I left the city gate and turned around to take the official road home, I saw a woman in Jingchai cloth standing in the distance, holding a basket in her hand.

She stretched her neck, raised her toes, and reached her head. When she saw Shui Qing and his group, she shouted timidly to Fan Jin, "Brother?"

Shui Qing was stunned and roared, is this an old acquaintance?

She quickly winked at Fan Jin and signaled.

Fan Jin first explained to her: "She is the daughter of my mentor. Her father has taken good care of me in the past."

Shui Qing waved his hand and urged: "I understand, I understand. I'm waiting here all the way. Come over and see what's going on."

After all, she is not the original owner. Fan Jin is a good partner and a dedicated teammate to her, but he is not yet a husband.

And maybe the woman is really in an emergency.

Fan Jiang took the cow rope, and the other four people gathered around Shui Qing, staring at his father and the woman without blinking.

"Auntie, I saw this woman when I was at the grocery store." Xing Hui tugged on Shui Qing's sleeves and announced quietly.

"She had been looking at the ebony hairpin I bought for my grandma. I originally thought she wanted to buy it, so I didn't say anything, but when I saw that she just looked at it without saying anything, I bought it."

"Auntie, you said she and daddy know each other. Why didn't they chat with each other at the grocery store? Why did she have to wait here?"

Shui Qing: ....In the past, I only focused on making money and had no experience in love.

It’s no use asking her!

Fan He speculated on the side: "You don't think you think dad is rich just because we buy a lot, right?"

A few people here were murmuring speculations, while Qin Wanyue looked at the people staring at them, and timidly suggested: "Brother, let's go behind the tree in the distance and talk, okay?"

Fan Jin's handsome brows frowned slightly, but he did not agree: "Wan, Mrs. Zheng, you and I are married, so we should avoid suspicion."

Now under Shui Qing's nose, he was worried that he couldn't explain clearly. If he went behind the trees, how could he explain clearly?

A gentleman cannot leave unless he stands under a dangerous wall.

Qin Wanyue was immediately moved, wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, and sobbed: "Brother still cares about me, takes care of me and thinks about me just like you and I did when we were young;

Not like, unlike in life.”

Shui Qing: .... That's well said. Why are you crying?

Fan Jin nervously turned his head to look at Shui Qing's expression, then looked back and picked a safe topic and continued: "I met my brother at lunch."

He didn't say anything unpleasant about what happened.

Qin Wanyue stopped crying and said softly: "I know, he came home at noon to talk about it."

Together with his two free-loading classmates, he kept scolding his senior brother and his family.

Occasionally, I would sigh that my senior brother is now prosperous and has money. The family wears fine clothes and can order several meat dishes at Shanhailou!

She thought about the time when her senior brother's daughter, a girl, bought a hairpin that she had been reluctant to buy at the grocery store, and her heart ached.

These are what she should enjoy.

Fan Jin felt uncomfortable all over and waited patiently for a while. Seeing that Qin Wanyue remained silent, he reminded: "Mrs. Zheng, are you here with your mentor?"

They hadn't seen each other for many years. If nothing happened, it wouldn't be just reminiscing. Something must have happened for Qin Wanyue to find him.

If it's not the husband's family's business, it's the mother's family's business.

Qin Wanyue shook her head and whispered: "I heard my husband mention you at noon. I thought that your home is in this direction, so I didn't bother to have lunch. I waited here early just to see you, senior brother."

Fan Jinxin raised the topic again and looked back at Shui Qing nervously, for fear of causing her to misunderstand.

Qin Wanyue also discovered that at noon, when she heard Zheng Pingsheng and the other two talking about Shige's wife, they kept referring to her as a womanizer, a shrew, and a shrew. In her mind, she had already defined Shige's wife as a vulgar peasant woman.

She lifted up the hair hanging down by her ears and tucked it behind her ears. Her eyes fell on Fan Jin's coarse cotton gown that had turned white after washing, and she said quietly: "Brother, my wife and children all wear fine cotton clothes. Du Shige, the head of the family, wears old clothes made of coarse materials, and his sister-in-law, she, she;

If it were me, I would definitely wear old clothes made of coarse materials so that my husband can look good outside and not be looked down upon by others. "
