Sign in and get rich in farming
Chapter 105 She Was Wrong
Yu Hongdou, who harvested eight little rabbits, received good news one after another.
The first was that the people sent by Duan Zhuangtou to Cigou Village in Piba Mountain came back. They not only brought more than 200 kilograms of soapberries, but also brought Yu Hongdou's uncle and cousin whom she had never met.
Qian Sanmei and Wangwang are now responsible for picking up and dropping off Yu Hongdou to and from school. Today, as soon as school was over, Qian Sanmei, who was guarding the school gate, came forward to inform her young lady that there were guests at home.
"It's my young aunt's uncle and eldest son, as well as the uncle's two brothers." Qian Sanmei took the young lady's schoolbag and reported the identities of the visitors in a low voice.
"My uncle-in-law and cousin? So the people from the farm are back?" Yu Hongdou was a little confused by Qian Sanmei's address of "aunt" and "uncle". After thinking for a while, she reacted.
"Yes, it is said that someone suffered minor injuries, but everyone else is safe. This time they brought back more than 200 kilograms of soapberries, and the old man and his men came to help deliver the goods." Qian Sanmei picked up the important news and told Yu Hongdou.
She had heard the young lady muttering before that nothing was more important than human life. Qian Sanmei was moved but also worried. When Duan Zhuangtou sent the master's family here, she couldn't help but muster up the courage to follow and listen to what she said.
"That's great!" Yu Hongdou breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Ping'an was safe. When she heard that there were more than 200 kilograms of soapberries, she couldn't help but jump twice with excitement.
The shop is about to open, but there are not many things to sell now. She is even thinking about whether she should use the chicken and duck eggs from the farm to make up the number.
With these 200 kilograms of soapberries, at least we can solve the urgent problem.
Yu Hongdou had no idea that she couldn't sell her products. It wasn't because she was too confident, but mainly because the things she made could withstand storage. Even if they couldn't be sold for the time being, there would be no problem keeping them until next year.
"Miss, the old man's family are all tall and strong, and look a little scary, but they have good tempers. Their laughter sounds like the bells in the temple, buzzing." It's not that Qian Sanmei is brave enough to talk about the relatives of the cricket owner behind their backs, but she mainly wants to remind the young lady.
"I heard from my father that my uncle is very brave, so I thought he should be a strong man." Yu Hongdou understood what Qian Sanmei meant and nodded to show that she understood.
After listening to Yu Sanlang's story about how his uncle-in-law was chased by a pack of wolves but was able to kill a tiger, I knew that this uncle-in-law must be a tough guy.
However, when she actually entered the house and saw the burly man like a mountain, Yu Hongdou realized that this tough guy was indeed very strong.
The weather was hot, so Yu Sanlang and his guests did not sit inside to eat, but set up a table in the yard. Four strong men, three adults and one child, managed to make the table in her house, which could seat eight people, become miniature.
"Hongdou, come and meet your uncle-in-law, your uncle from the Cao family, and your cousin Su." Yu Sanlang waved his hand to introduce the relatives at the table to his daughter.
Yu Hongdou called everyone one by one, and when she got closer, she found that her uncle-in-law and two uncles were more than 1.9 meters tall. Their shoulders and arms made Yu Hongdou feel for the first time that they were not exaggerating when they could kill a cow with one punch.
These were the tallest and strongest people she had ever seen since she had traveled through time. Even her cousin, who still looked childish, was at least 1.75 meters tall.
"Hey, uncle came in a hurry this time and didn't bring anything good. Next time I come, I will bring you a white fox fur, and ask your parents to make you a fur coat in winter." The uncle scratched his head in embarrassment.
Knowing that her uncle-in-law was helping to deliver the soap nuts, Yu Hongdou was too grateful to express it. She was just about to refuse and tell her uncle not to be polite, when she saw her uncle-in-law casually take out a string of things and hand it to her.
The same was true for her uncle's brothers, and even her little cousin was reaching into his arms.
"It's just a worthless little thing from the mountains. Just take it and play with it for fun." Several strong men put the things in Yu Hongdou's hands with almost the same action and expression.
Yu Hongdou had no choice but to thank him. After she thanked him, she looked at the object in her hand and her mouth opened into an O shape.
The four strings of ornaments, about an inch long, have different shapes and colors, but they all have the same name, which is amber.
Yu Hongdou blinked her eyes. This was an organic gem of sky-high price. She had only seen a piece the size of a fingernail at a jewelry exhibition, which was as expensive as her monthly salary. Now she had so many!
"Cousin, this insect amber doesn't look very good. I have some flower ambers at home. I'll bring them to you next time I come." Cao Su looked at his little cousin who looked like she could be knocked down with just a finger, and felt that the insect amber he gave her was a bit embarrassing.
"Thank you, cousin. I like this very much. What kind of insect is this?" Yu Hongdou shook her head. Not to mention the price, these are all signals from tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years ago. They are hard to come by!
"It's a gold beetle. Look, doesn't its shell look like gold?" Cao Su pointed to the golden beetle wrapped in golden amber.
"..." Yu Hongdou nodded. It was true that this little bug looked a bit like gold, but were you sure you didn't just make up the name "gold bug"?
"Although my father's one is beautiful in bright red, it has no flowers or insects and is not very interesting. My mother used it to make hairpins, which are quite beautiful. You can try it later, cousin." Cao Su pointed at the string of complaints his father gave him.
Yu Hongdou lowered her head speechlessly. Even if she didn't understand much, she knew that this thing should be called blood amber, and it seemed to be the most valuable amber.
The remaining two strings, one piece is a palm-sized brown-red amber, which contains a whole scorpion.
The other one is about the same size, and contains a fern-like grass. The small plant and symmetrical leaves make it look like a blade of grass struggling to grow upwards. If you look closely, there seems to be a drop of dew on the blade.
It was once recorded in "Classic of Mountains and Seas" that amber "can be worn to prevent diseases". From ancient times to the present, wealthy people have worn jewelry made of amber and beeswax to prevent diseases, so this thing has always been a luxury and its value is not low.
Yu Hongdou didn't know whether her uncle and his family knew how precious amber was. If they did, they wouldn't have to sell soapberries. Just selling a few pieces of amber every year would be enough to live a good life. From what her cousin said, it was obvious that their family had quite a bit of amber collection.
"Uncle, this seems to be quite expensive. Rich people should like it very much." After hesitating for a moment, Yu Hongdou still gave a small hint.
"Well, there are plenty in the mountains. The village chief said that we can't sell too many at once, otherwise they will lose their value. Besides, those rich people are very picky, so we only take out five or six pieces every year."
"There are more interesting things at home. You can play with these first. I'll bring them to you later~" My uncle-in-law waved his hands, looking nonchalant.
=O=! Yu Hongdou's little face immediately turned into an emoticon.
I always thought that my aunt married into a poor and remote area, where she was miserable and hungry all day long, there were many tigers and wolves in the mountains, and she had to live in fear and terror. It was hard to describe how miserable and difficult her life was...
She had made a mistake!
