Chapter 107 Li Yulian sends money and letters

The autumn harvest is basically over, and all the taxes that need to be paid have been paid. What farmers who have surplus grain in their hands want most is to turn grain into money.

Obviously, Li Yulian was innocent, but she sent the money to Chen Yu.

Just because there is only one Zhuangzi in the Li family, and now it is occupied by Cui Xiaoyi and his wife, they have to be on guard.

Chen Yu's impression of Cui Xiaoyi has reached rock bottom. Coupled with Mrs. Cui's urinary nature, if Li Yulian's business is targeted by them, there will be some trouble.

"Mom, can my eldest brother do this?" Li Xiuying asked bravely.

Chen Yu and Li Yulian discussed it and took Li Xiuying to Dawangzhuang.

Dawangzhuang and Sujiazhuang are more than four miles apart. Zhuangzhuang is very large. The carriage stopped in front of the gate of Li Xiuying's natal family.

The front door is very clean, the walls and the door are very tidy. Regardless of whether they are rich or poor, they must be a family that is going through life.

Li Xiuying stepped forward and called the door.

"Who is it?" Someone answered from the door.

Li Xiuying replied excitedly: "Sister-in-law, I am Xiuying."

The door opened, revealing the woman's plump round face, which was full of smiles: "I was just wondering why I heard the magpies chirping today. It's our Xiu Niang who is back."

When the woman saw the carriage outside the door and the people standing next to the carriage, she quickly picked up her apron and wiped her hands, then hurried over to greet her: "My aunt is here, come in quickly."

Chen Yu knew that Li Xiuying's mother-in-law had died early, and she only had her brother-in-law and two children. At first glance, she felt that the Li family's daughter-in-law was easy to get along with, but after experiencing so many miscellaneous people, Chen Yu didn't care much about it.

I just planned to take a look before talking about it.

After entering the door, the Li family's wife was very attentive in serving tea and water. She sat down after busy work and said, "I didn't know that my aunt is here. Xiu Niang's brother took the children into the mountains to hunt."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you wait." Chen Yu said with a smile.

The Li family's wife was obviously a little worried and found an excuse to call Li Xiuying out.

Li Xiuying explained the matter again, and the Li family's wife's eyes widened: "You dare to take this job from our family, why don't we embarrass you if we don't do it well?"

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. The family has been busy building houses these days. If you and eldest brother can do this, I will discuss with my mother-in-law and let Wu Lang come over." Li Xiuying looked at the Li family's daughter-in-law with a smile.

The daughter-in-law of the Li family sighed: "I'm afraid that you girl will report good news but not bad news. The two families are not separated by mountains and rivers and don't know the details. Is your mother-in-law really that easy to talk to?"

"Really, did you see that? That young lady is a noble person. She belongs to the county magistrate's family." Li Xiuying said.

The daughter-in-law of the Li family stumbled and almost fell down. Fortunately, Li Xiuying had quick eyesight and quick hands to hold her up.

Cold sweat broke out on her forehead. The Li family's daughter-in-law took a deep breath and said, "I can't decide on this matter. I'll go into the mountains to find your elder brother and come back. Grandma Tian, ​​I'm scared to death."

Chen Yu saw that only Li Xiuying came back and asked, "Where is your sister-in-law?"

"My sister-in-law was so frightened that she went into the mountains to find my elder brother." Li Xiuying smiled sheepishly: "My mother-in-law's family is very small. In addition to farming, she also goes to the mountains to hunt on weekdays."

Chen Yu looked at the clean house and the sorghum and soybeans drying in the yard. She discussed in a low voice with Li Yulian how to calculate the money for the Li family to collect the grain.

Soon the eldest brother of the Li family came back. When he saw Chen Yu, he bowed: "Auntie, I'm thinking about you. Come in and sit down."

"I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. It was Xiuying who reminded me that there is something I want to trouble you two about." Chen Yu got straight to the point.

The eldest brother of the Li family hurriedly said: "That's what my aunt told me to do. I have nothing to do right now. The two families are relatives, so we should help each other."

He looked to be in his early thirties, with a dark complexion, a straight nose and a square mouth, and he had a loyal look. He obviously didn't know that he would pay to hire them, and thought that the help was free of charge.

Chen Yu said with a smile: "Brother, you have to work hard for this. There is no reason to work for nothing. When harvesting beetroot and millet, the price will be the same as the price sold to the grain shop. In addition, no matter what kind of grain it is, the price will be the same." Dou will give you one hundred yuan as payment for your hard work."

The eldest brother of the Li family stood up: "Auntie, Changfa treats auntie as a relative, why do you want to raise money? I can't help you with all my strength, it's not worth it."

"Don't worry, long hair." Chen Yu finally knew that the eldest brother of the Li family was called Li Changfa, and followed his words: "Brothers have to settle accounts openly. Besides, my aunt is doing a partnership business, so you should keep it." Just take it, otherwise I can’t leave this matter to you.”

Li Changfa looked at Li Xiuying.

Li Xiuying nodded.

Li Changfa rubbed his hands: "Then, do you have any other requests?"

"The grain cannot be wet, otherwise it cannot be stored, and it must be clean. There are no other requirements." Chen Yu said and took out the money bag: "Here is the money for collecting grain, which has been changed into scattered silver and copper coins."

Li Changfa had never seen such a big money bag in his entire life. He pursed his lips nervously and said, "Auntie, can you let Wu Lang come over and take care of the money? It's our brother's business to make money. I don't feel confident doing it myself."

Chen Yu knew that he was a kind and honest person. He looked at Li Xiuying and said, "It's fine if Wu Lang comes over to help, but you can't take the money. Your eldest brother is working for our family. There is no reason for Wu Lang to come over and share the money."

"Well, I listen to my mother. She takes care of my brother and sister-in-law, so I don't have to worry about it." Li Xiuying made it clear.

Li Changfa and his daughter-in-law Zhang Luo wanted to cook, but Chen Yu declined politely and took Li Yulian in a carriage home.

On the carriage, Li Yulian said with a smile: "Grandma Su, you are really powerful. I think Uncle Li is a useful person."

Li Xiuying lowered her head and pursed her lips, smiling, not hiding her happiness.

Chen Yu patted the back of Li Yulian's hand: "If we want to do this well, we might as well put the workshop here."

Li Xiuying was stunned by these words, but she didn't say anything.

Obviously Li Yulian didn't want her family to know what she was doing, so Chen Yu would not point it out, but seriously thought about Wulang's livelihood.

Liu Lang had already decided to open a restaurant with Yun Niang. If his family hadn't needed people to build a house, Liu Lang would have sold blood sausages and head meat. On the fifteenth day, he bought a lot of pig intestines in Qingniu County. I didn't rest since the second day. I went to the butcher's shop in Qingniu County every day to bring back pig blood and sewage.

Su Lan Niang's matter was delayed for a long time, and Chen Yu didn't pay attention to where Su Liulang's blood sausages had gone. However, after the family started building houses and hiring craftsmen, they always had the meat and blood sausages.

Erlang's carpenter skills are very good, and he can help him with planning when he has free time. That is also a career.

Let’s start with harvesting grain. If Wulang is really this material, the skills of making soy sauce and pressing soybean oil will be passed on to Wulang. It can be seen that Li Xiuying’s brother and sister-in-law are trustworthy people. Everyone needs help in everything they do. If the brother-in-law and brother-in-law cooperate, Li Xiuying will mediate wisely and they will not be separated.

Before leaving, Li Yulian said: "Grandma Su, there was news from Zhuangzi two days ago, saying that Mr. Cui recently took in a girl from the village. I don't know what happened."

What's going on? If your waist doesn't hurt and your legs don't feel sore, you can't suppress the evil fire anymore. It seems that the medicine has had an effect, but Chen Yu has made up his mind and wants to see a doctor again, and they have to come to the door! Bah!
