"Sister-in-law, did you really capture Wu Ming and the others?"

When the Lin family and Li Youmei heard the news, their faces were full of disbelief.

"What's the matter? The aunt is so powerful. It's easy to deal with those people." Lin Erbao said.

"I also helped my uncle a lot. I discovered them."

Lin Erxiong's face was red, and he took the initiative to stand up and show his merit. Usually he had no presence at home and did not help the family. This time, he finally helped the family.

"That's right, Er Xiong made great contributions this time." Ye Chuqiu nodded and did not deny his contribution.

"Sister-in-law, why did you leave those people to the head of the village? You didn't bring them over first, so I could vent my anger." Li Youmei said again.

"If you want to be angry, just go to the mayor's house and find them."

"I don't want to go to Li Chang's house." Li Youmei glanced at Ye Chuqiu and waved her hand: "Forget it, I don't want to see them again, so I won't go."

But even though she said this, she glanced at Ye Chuqiu from time to time, as if she wanted to ask her something, but didn't dare to speak.

"Do you want to ask me if I found any money on them?" Ye Chuqiu peeled off a peanut and asked while grinding the peanut clothes.

"Yes... yes, they robbed a lot of things and money from my house before. I wanted to ask if I could get it back." Li Youmei quickly replied.

"Oh, I remember someone said yesterday: Most of the money was given by Wu Ming and the others. It doesn't matter if you want it or not."

When Ye Chuqiu said this, Li Youmei blushed and hesitated for a long time before finally thinking of a reason. Just when she was about to speak, she heard Ye Chuqiu say again, "Okay, I won't joke with you, since

One of our families has a baby, so let’s share the spoils equally among the three families.”

Ye Chuqiu said, taking out the sack, "Well, all the belongings are here, and there are three big knives, but those things are not suitable to be displayed in front of others, so I put them away."

Looking at the contents of the sack, a hint of greed appeared in Li Youmei's eyes. Chai Chunfang, who was standing beside her, also had joy in her eyes. She let her son go for a day and was able to get away with so many things unscathed. This was a big deal.

It's a good thing that you can't even find it with a lantern.

"Let's divide the money first, and then the things. I will choose first, Chunfang second, and you third."

"Why am I third?"

"Because I have the greatest credit. Er Xiong followed me today and made a lot of credit. He was the one who discovered the path that Wu Ming and the others often walked. The credit is second. Er Bao has the least credit. So according to the credit distribution, you have

What's the problem?"

"No problem, no problem."

Li Youmei was afraid that she would offend Ye Chuqiu later, so she immediately disagreed and did not dare to talk back to her anymore.

The money was divided well, and Ye Chuqiu was a bit of a germaphobe. She felt that all the money stunk, so she asked Zhao Hehua to bring a basin of water, threw the divided money into the water to wash it clean, and then handed over the important task of selection to

Zhao Hehua.

After the money was divided, there were some women's hairpins, cloths, and even some ointments, needlework, purses and other things. Apparently, they even robbed the passing vendors.

Everyone picked round after round, almost forgetting the previous unhappiness. No one would dislike this simple joy of harvest.

"Hehua, my second aunt also wants this sewing kit."

Li Youmei saw that Ye Chuqiu did not choose, but sent Zhao Hehua as the representative, so she thought of using the authority of her elders to get Zhao Hehua to give way to her.

"Second Aunt, if you want it, why didn't you choose it in the last round?" Zhao Hehua has grown up after all, and she doesn't want to suffer. She just said with a smile: "Spring will be here soon, I have to pick up my needle and thread.

Make clothes for my mother."

"Oh, since we are making clothes for my sister-in-law, let's forget it." Li Youmei said angrily and asked Zhao Hehua to take away the sewing kit.

In fact, when everyone chooses items, they always pick the most expensive ones first, and then the second most expensive items. There is no one who likes or dislikes them.

In the end, everyone shared these bits and pieces and gained a lot.

In addition to the money, each family also divided ten or so taels. It seems that they are really gold belts for murder and arson. How long did Wu Ming and his gang rob? They ate and drank every day. I didn't expect that there was still so much money left.

Including the jewelry, cloth, and odds and ends, the total value is probably worth a dozen or so, so this time, Ye Chuqiu and the others really made a fortune.

After receiving the money, the two families immediately took out five taels of silver and returned it to Ye Chuqiu. Ye Chuqiu took the money with a smile and returned the IOU to them.

"Let's launder this money properly."

Ye Chuqiu threw the money into the water, and Li Youmei curled her lips secretly. My sister-in-law was too particular, so she still thought the money was dirty?

But when they saw the dirty water in the basin after Zhao Hehua washed the money with a brush, they decided to wash the money when they went back. The money was really dirty.

"Mom, the laundered money."

After the silver and copper plates were washed, Zhao Hehua wiped them dry with a handkerchief. She tied up the copper plates with hemp rope before giving them to Ye Chuqiu.

"Here, I'll give these to you, and keep some private money. If a salesman comes from the village, I can buy whatever I want."

After receiving the money, Ye Chuqiu was generous and gave each of them twenty coppers, and put the rest into his purse.

Next, after the people in the second and third bedrooms left, Erhu also reported the bill to her and talked about his gains from selling braised meat today. Ever since Ye Chuqiu thought he was too stupid two years ago, he later followed Sihu to learn from her.

, now settling accounts is finally no longer a problem.

"Everything is sold out today. A total of 3,865 cash was sold. It cost 800 cash to buy the goods today. My third brother, I, Da Bao, Big Bear, and the ox carts spent ten bucks to get into the city.

One penny, and there are...three thousand and fifty-four penny left."

He calculated clearly one by one, and then handed the remaining money to Ye Chuqiu. Ye Chuqiu took the money, counted it, and said, "By the way, I said before that I would give you a little share, right?"

?”

"Mom, it's half." Lin Sanhu added on the side: "You said you would give each of us half a dividend and give my sister-in-law 20%."

"You remember clearly, don't worry, if you do your job well, will my mother treat you badly?"

Ye Chuqiu said, first took out 20% and handed it to Zhao Hehua, "Hehua, you can take these."

"Mom, this is too much." Zhao Hehua felt a little hot while holding the money.

"It's okay. As I promised you before, mother will of course keep her word." Ye Chuqiu said.

"Hey, thank you, mother."

Zhao Hehua responded and said: "If we have so much income every day, you won't have to pay extra for food and drink at home. You can just pay for it from me."

"How can that be done? This is private money for you two. You can use it to buy whatever you want. You are adults and you can't do it without any money."

"Thank you, mother."

When Zhao Hehua heard what Ye Chuqiu said, she felt happy and was very grateful to Ye Chuqiu.

In the past, she always felt that working from morning to night every day made her life difficult, but now, she is also doing housework at home every day and has a lot of things to do every day, but she feels more relaxed than before and does not feel tired at all.

tired.

"Mom, I cut six or seven of the wood you asked me to chop today, and when I came back, they were all cut into seven feet long. Do you want to come and take a look?"

Seeing that Ye Chuqiu had arranged all the family affairs, Lin Dahu also came over.

"Okay, take me to see it."

Ye Chuqiu followed him to the backyard and saw a pile of wood piled outside the wooden house in the backyard. He nodded, "Not bad, I didn't expect you to get so much wood in one day. Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, I didn't do anything else." Lin Dahu scratched his head and asked, "Mom, may I know what you plan to do when you want this wood?"

"Oh, I plan to use it to grow basswood mushrooms." Ye Chuqiu said.

"What are basswood mushrooms?" Lin Dahu asked puzzledly.

"They're just mushrooms that grow on trees."

Ye Chuqiu said: "Didn't my mother get a lot of white fungus and shiitake mushrooms last time she went to the mountain? She thought, since these things can grow on trees, we can also grow them on wood, don't you think?"

"Well……"

Lin Dahu felt that Ye Chuqiu's idea was a bit whimsical, but he didn't know what was wrong.

"Okay, just do what mom said. We don't have any land, and we may not be able to buy it in the future, but we can grow food on the wood and sell it when the time comes, and we can still make money." Ye Chuqiu

Patted him on the back and said.

"Okay, then I'll chop some more wood and come back tomorrow."

Lin Dahu responded, picked up the ax with great interest, and went to chop wood again.

The new life made everyone full of energy, especially Lin Dahu. As the eldest brother, he used to be responsible for almost everything in the family, but now, he only has to work and does not have to worry about the family's livelihood. Someone helps him carry the family.
