Chapter 43

Chapter 43 Divide Money

Such a beautiful and alluring little wife, he had long wanted to take her apart and eat her.

But he has his own considerations. Next time, he will definitely not let his little wife down.

"Daughter-in-law." Zhou Yi came to Song Xi and wanted to take her into his arms.

As soon as I got home and saw her, all the heat, fatigue and hard work disappeared.

The most correct decision he made in his life was to marry her back at the expense of others.

"Brother Yi, please try this dress." On such a hot day, Zhou Yi was like a big fireball.

Song Xi avoided it subconsciously and handed Zhou Yi the short-sleeved top she had sewn by herself.

Zhou Yi's clothes were so shabby that she couldn't stand it anymore.

You can wear shabby clothes when you work, but there is no need to wear shabby clothes when you go out, right?

Otherwise, it is easy to be discriminated against by city residents!

"Daughter-in-law, are these the clothes you made for me?" Zhou Yi was so excited that he couldn't believe that his daughter-in-law actually made clothes for him with her own hands?

Although this dress looks different from others, it is extraordinarily beautiful.

"Hurry up and try it. If it doesn't fit, you can modify it." Song Xi urged.

Looking at the man's silly look, her eyes hurt a little.

"Okay." Zhou Yi nodded excitedly and took off his shabby top in front of Song Xi.

I put on new clothes and didn't feel shy at all.

Song Xi was very embarrassed, "Yes, my sworn brother looks more mature and stable in this dress. I guess all the girls and wives in the city will be fascinated by you."

Zhou Yi has good facial features, firm facial lines, and his navy blue clothes make him mature and steady.

There is an indescribable aura about her whole body, just like a walking clothes rack, giving her the feeling of a salesman showing off.

"Daughter-in-law, are you fascinated by me?" Zhou Yi stretched out his hand and hooked Song Xi's waist, asking with burning eyes.

He doesn't want to charm anyone else, the only person he wants to charm is her.

Seeing that Song Xi didn't speak, Zhou Yi didn't speak either. He just lowered his head and stared at Song Xi quietly.

Feeling that the temperature of his body was getting higher and higher, he could only blame this damn summer.

Song Xi's heart was trembling at the look in his eyes, and her whole face was on fire. Was she fascinated?

She doesn't know either.

At this time, someone suddenly knocked on the courtyard door.

Zhou Yi rubbed Song Xi's head with his chin, then turned around and went out to open the door.

It was Aunt Li, the neighbor on the other side. She was standing outside the door with a small basket in her hand.

He looked at Zhou Yi, then looked into the yard with a curious look on his face, "Zhou Yi, how is your wife?"

"It's okay." Zhou Yi nodded to Aunt Li.

He doesn't talk much himself, and outsiders can't see his enthusiasm unless he's treating his family and friends.

But Aunt Li came to care about his wife, and he couldn't refuse her. After all, she had good intentions.

Besides, Aunt Li's family are all good people and we can get along with each other.

"I saved a few eggs to replenish your wife's health!"

In the eyes of the entire Ping'an Village, Zhou Yi borrowed so much money to marry his wife and treat her illness, which made him extremely poor. It is estimated that it will be difficult to maintain his life for the rest of his life.

In Aunt Li's eyes, she thinks so too.

So she wanted to help the newlyweds. Although her family's life was not that good, they could still make enough money.

Zhou Yi originally wanted to refuse. After all, Aunt Li's family was not easy.

Moreover, chickens don’t lay many eggs in this hot summer. I don’t know how long Aunt Li’s family has been saving these five eggs.

But looking at Aunt Li's expectant look, Zhou Yi couldn't refuse, so he had to say thank you.

He reached out and took out the eggs from the basket.

At worst, I'll save a bowl for Aunt Li next time I cook braised snake meat.

"Then I won't disturb you. When your wife is well, let her come to our house to play!" Aunt Li saw Zhou Yi taking the eggs, turned around and left with a smile.

In fact, Zhou Yi had helped their family before, but Zhou Yi was still young at that time. Now that so many years have passed, Zhou Yi may have forgotten it.

It doesn't matter if Zhou Yi forgets, as long as she remembers.

Even though she is over fifty years old, she is a grateful person!

"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhou Yi come back, Song Xi asked doubtfully.

"Aunt Li next door brought five eggs over. It's too hot. Please don't come out. I'll cook."

In the hot summer, no matter how busy you are at work, you will always have lunch break. After all, heat stroke can really kill you.

Besides, the busiest double raid of the year has been completed, so there isn’t much to do for the time being.

Naturally, there are no hard requirements for everyone to work, so naturally you can take a longer break at noon.

Zhou Yi naturally had time to go home and cook.

After lunch, Zhou Yi and Song Xi took a lunch break, changed into shabby clothes, and went out.

Song Xi is not a child, how could she need someone to accompany her even during her lunch break!

It was obvious that Zhou Yi wanted to lie with her and deliberately found an excuse to accompany her!

In the evening, Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua came over together.

The two people used their strength to carry a large round bamboo basket over.

It was full of river mussels that were larger than an adult man's hand. I don't know where the two children picked them up from.

"Little tree, little flower, please help me carry it to the main room for weighing."

Although she didn't know how much the basket weighed, she knew that she couldn't carry it alone, so she moved it with three people.

They carried the river clams to the main room while Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua went out to move the snails.

Song Xi quickly put the mussels into the space, weighed them, transferred them to a large white bucket, and took out the basket.

Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua brought eighty pounds of river mussels and fifty pounds of field snails today.

A total of one dollar and three cents.

One dollar and three cents can only buy one piece of candy in modern times, but in this era, you can buy dozens of kilograms of whole grains!

In Ping'an Village, a poor mountain village, strong laborers only earn about 8 cents to 10 cents for a day's work.

In other words, Zhou Yi's hard work for a day would only cost him eight cents to ten cents in RMB.

Calculated this way, Zhou Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaohua spent several hours a day picking up some river mussels and snails, and could exchange them for so much money. They were already envious of others.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Song Xi and Zhou Yi both took a shower and were enjoying the cool air in the yard.

Zhou Yi gently shook his cattail leaf fan, and both of them could catch the wind.

After so many days here, Song Xi was used to going to bed early, so she fell asleep after a while.

It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that Song Xi suddenly opened her eyes.

It was Zhou Ping, Mo Jiaxiang, Sheng Jia and three others who came to share the money.

Song Xi went back to the room to get the account book and pen, and they sat in the main room and began to calculate the accounts by the light of candles.

It was just a trial sale on the first day, and I only made thirty-two yuan.

Starting from the second day, it is around 80 every day.

On the fifth day, braised snake meat was added, which was almost one hundred and fifty.
