After frying for a few times, her movements became more skillful and her speed became faster. When Liu Guilan and his wife came back, she had already made two pots.

Liu Guilan and the others took enough baskets and sacks at once, thinking that it would take too much time to send them back again and again, and they still wanted to go back to pick up people today, so Liu Guilan asked Su Guangbai to send them back.

She picked them alone in the mountains, and when he came back after sending them off, she had basically picked enough for one more trip.

In this way, the two of them were sending and picking, and the speed was surprisingly fast.

It took one and a half hours to pick enough for tomorrow. The two of them didn't take much rest. Liu Guilan wiped her sweat and said, "Auntie, my second brother and I want to go back and pick up my mother. It will be dark when we come back tonight. Can you please trouble me?" Can you help keep an eye on Wen Yuan for a while?"

"Okay, let's go, let's go!" Su A'nai agreed. Su Wenyuan was already good, so he didn't need to worry about it. He and Axiu could also have fun.

Liu Guilan said a few words to Su Wenyuan, and the two left in a hurry, obviously in a hurry.

Liu Guilan's parents' home is not very far from Baihua Cave, just two mountains away. The two of them walked quickly and arrived in more than half an hour.

Picking up Liu's mother went surprisingly smoothly. Just like Liu Guilan said, the two sisters-in-law and siblings wished they were without Liu's mother.

The three of them didn't stay at home longer, took Mother Liu's change of clothes and left.

"Erya, this stuff doesn't taste good. It makes you feel flustered. Why did you pick it off? Mom also knows that life is not easy for you and Erya. You just need to take care of your own little family. Don't worry about Mom. Mom is not old yet. He who has arms and legs will never die of hunger.”

Liu Yuyu continued to say earnestly, "You haven't separated your family yet. You have a mother-in-law and a child. You can't make the decision on many things. You can go back in a while. Mom can go back by herself. I'll cook the pot by myself." They have no problem with it.”

After listening to her mother's words, Liu Guilan felt panicked, "Mom, we have separated. Although life is not particularly easy, it will get better and better. When we pick these peppers, we don't take them back to eat, we take them away. It’s sold for a penny a pound.”

Afraid that Liu's mother wouldn't go, Liu Guilan said deliberately: "And we didn't pick you up here just to enjoy the blessings. My second brother and I are helping in the village, and we earn ten cents a day each, but Wen Yuan has no one to take care of him, and we don't have to do the cooking." It’s also time-consuming, so we just want to pick you up, help us bring Wen Yuan, cook a meal and feed the chickens, etc. Don’t worry, our life will get better soon.”

Mother Liu was shocked by the news, "The family is separated?"

Liu Guilan nodded, "Well, we've been separated for a few days."

"Is this thing worth a penny a pound?"

"Correct!"

"You two earn twenty cents a day?"

"Well, six hundred cash a month, more than seven taels of silver a year, and they said they would process the money if the workload increases in the future."

Mother Liu picked the peppers much faster, "What are you waiting for? Pick them quickly. Why haven't you heard of them before? You know I've been here to pick them a long time ago."

She also didn't forget to tell Liu Guilan and his wife, "You have to work hard for such a high salary. You don't want to cheat and cheat. Also, don't let the spoiled pepper go in."

"I know mother."

"That's why we thought of taking you over to help take care of the children. Otherwise we really wouldn't be able to work well. We're not happy with being paid 20 cents a day."

Mother Liu: "Who will take care of the child for you? Your mother-in-law?"

Liu Guilan: "No, Wen Yuan left it at the house where we work. I have asked her to help look after it these two days."

"That's not possible. This family gives you wages, so why do you still ask people to help take care of the children? Pick them quickly, pick them quickly, why are you two children so incapable of doing things?" Mother Liu was anxious.

Su Guangbai was angry, "Yes, yes, this is really not good for an adult. Mother, just live with us and we will provide for you in your old age."

Mother Liu paused while picking peppers, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She pooped and peed all over her two biological sons, and neither of them had ever said this.

"Hurry and pick it. There is no more in the mountain col next door. That one is also dry and wet, but the size is much better than this one. It's time to pick some wild garlic. The wild garlic there is as big as a thumb." Mother Liu His voice was obviously much lighter.

"Then we can pluck more and send some to our neighbor's house. They use a lot every time they make food." Liu Guilan's eyes lit up when she heard that there was a big wild garlic.

Mother Liu asked while picking, "Why are you being asked to do such a high wage?"

Liu Guilan: "I deliver two loads of tofu every day, and then I pick the leaves."

Mother Liu was quite surprised and looked up at her, "That's it?" "Ang." Liu Guilan nodded.

"You mean they sell tofu, right? Your job is too easy, so you have to help others do it well."

"I know mother, we will definitely do a good job."

Su Guangbai brought two full sacks. The couple each carried one sack, while Mother Liu carried her change of clothes and a bundle of wild garlic.

This wild garlic is not only big, but also has fat leaves.

The three of them came back a little late. It was already dark, so they slowly groped their way home under the moonlight.

When I got home, it was already dark, and the moonlight was like water, covering the entire Baihua Cave. When I heard the noise, the dogs in the village began to bark, and the barking of dogs one after another broke the tranquility of this moment.

The old Su family hadn't slept yet. Firstly, they were waiting for Su Guangbai and his wife to come to pick up the children, and secondly, Su Ziling's tea had just been roasted.

After dinner, everyone sat at the table and began to calculate today's profits and the direction to go in the future.

When there was a knock on the door, Su Wenyuan, who was sitting by the fire pit and was drowsy, suddenly woke up. He stood up suddenly and said, "Grandma, are my aunt and the others back?"

Su A'nai touched his head and said, "Can you and Brother Erniu go and see it?"

"Let's go." Su Zimu stretched out his hand, and Su Wenyuan held his hand and dragged him towards the door.

"Brother Erniu, hurry up, it must be my mother-in-law and the others who are back."

"Slow down, they won't run away when they come back."

As soon as the door opens.

"Aniang!" Su Wenyuan said loudly and loudly, showing a sense of excitement and joy.

"Hey, Yuanyuan, are you obedient?" Liu Guilan carried the sack, "Yuanyuan points to the side, my hands are empty."

Su Wenyuan stepped aside and followed her step by step, "I am obedient and eat well. Mom, I also ate wild eggs today. My eldest sister picked them up in the mountains. They are delicious. Mom, what are you carrying? Something?"

Hearing the noise, Su's father and the others quickly stood up and came over to continue, "What is this thing? It's quite heavy."

"I thought of picking peppers when I encountered them in the mountains, but I wasted a little time." Su Guangbai wiped his sweat.

"This is your mother, right?" Su A'nai said, "I guess I haven't eaten at all this night. Sister, come in and sit down. Come in and sit down. Our table has just been put away. It's just a good time to warm it up. have eaten."

Mother Liu was quite polite, "We have eaten. We ate at home before heading back. Sister, I dug some wild garlic on the way. I heard from Guilan that you are useful. I want to thank you for helping these two children."
