Mrs. Chen was jealous and asked her husband Wu Dashui to go to the mountain to pick grapes the next day.
They went there very early, found a nearby place where mountain grapes grew, and started picking them.
When people who came later saw them, they couldn't help but mock: "Didn't they say they couldn't pick them? How come they came earlier than us?"
Mrs. Chen just pretended not to hear.
Jiang family.
Jiang Yao got busy early in the morning.
She first went to Niu Dashan, chartered his oxcart for two days, and asked him to bring back more than twenty jars for her.
Then, together with Qian Zhaodi, they crushed the washed and dried grapes collected yesterday and put them into the jar.
In the afternoon, another villager came to sell the picked mountain grapes.
There are obviously many more people today than yesterday.
Jiang Yao was waiting at the door with a scale. When one person came and finished weighing, another one came.
Soon, Jiang Yao saw an acquaintance.
That fierce Mr. Chen should be followed by her man.
The two carried full baskets and placed them in front of Jiang Yao.
"Weigh you."
Jiang Yao didn't weigh it, but looked at the quality of the grapes.
"My husband and I are known in the village to be very careful in our work, and these grapes have been carefully selected," Mrs. Chen said proudly.
Jiang Yao was a little suspicious. This Chen family was not famous for being careful, but for being cunning.
If it were mixed with green, it would be more reasonable.
"Girl from the Jiang family, please call me by your name quickly. There are so many people waiting for you later."
Jiang Yao weighed the two backpacks and found that they added up to forty-two kilograms.
Without the backpack, it weighs about forty pounds.
"Oh, I'll leave my backpack here for you. Come back tomorrow to save yourself the trouble." Mrs. Chen said, "Just give me the money first, I'm still busy."
Chen's urging made Jiang Yao even more suspicious.
There may be something going on under this basket on my back.
"Your things are valuable. What if they get damaged? Our Jiang family can't afford to pay for them."
Mrs. Cheng came out with an empty basket and stared at Mrs. Chen with a pair of sharp eyes.
Now that Yaoyao is doing business, Mrs. Cheng feels extra proud. She walks with her head held high and the wind blowing under her feet.
She and Mrs. Zhang didn't deal with each other. It was fine if she didn't deliberately make things difficult, especially since Mrs. Chen was obviously up to something.
Mrs. Cheng put the basket on the ground and tipped Chen's basket on her back.
Good guy, the top layer is all in good condition and purple and mature, while nearly half of the bottom layer is green!
Mrs. Cheng exploded on the spot: "Ms. Chen, is this how you deceive people, hiding all the green stuff underneath?!"
"What a lie! These mountain grapes come in bunches. You were not careful when picking them..."
"Accidentally picked so many? Most of them are green! You think we are fools! You are cheating money. How can you be such a person? You are as thick-skinned as a city wall! You are an immoral thing!"
Mr. Cheng spoke loudly and cursed at the top of his lungs.
Others also joined in.
From this look, it seems that something is wrong with Mr. Chen.
How can there be such a shoddy product?
No wonder his family picked so many.
Wu Dashui also felt a little embarrassed.
"I won't sell it anymore!" He said and walked away with the basket on his back.
Mrs. Chen was pointed at, so she poured the contents of the basket back into her own basket and ran away with it on her back.
Mrs. Cheng took a sip of water.
"unlucky!"
Jiang Yao also felt unlucky.
However, don't let this unlucky thing ruin your mood.
Just don’t accept Chen’s things from now on.
Jiang Yao continued to weigh the mountain grapes picked by other families.
As for Chen and Wu Dashui, they returned home dejectedly carrying the mountain grapes on their backs.
"Don't tell mother about this," Wu Dashui warned.
If his mother knew about this, there would definitely be a scene and he would be embarrassed again.
Mrs. Chen nodded, she didn't dare to say anything, otherwise her mother-in-law would have to tear her apart!
"It's all your fault. I have to take off the green ones, otherwise this will not happen." Wu Dashui said angrily.
He was jealous when he saw other people making money, so he went.
As a result, I worked hard all day and didn't earn a penny. The thought of it made me very angry.
"Didn't you say nothing when I stuffed the green grapes in?" Mrs. Chen muttered.
As soon as Wu Dashui glared at her, Mrs. Chen did not dare to speak.
Although Chen is fierce, she is afraid of Wu Dashui because Wu Dashui will beat her.
"Master, what do you think Jiang Yao does with so many grapes? Our grapes can't be thrown away in vain. Can we just follow her and learn what she uses them for?" said Chen.
Wu Dashui also thought it made sense and nodded: "Go and find out."
Later, I actually asked Mrs. Chen to find out what kind of wine she wanted to make.
It is said that just crush it and throw it into the vat.
Mrs. Chen squeezed all the grapes in the basket.
Within a few days, a foul smell developed.
Mrs. Chen was scolded severely by Mrs. Zhang.
Of course, these all happened later.
Jiang family.
Jiang Yao said in charge that Gouzai was responsible for giving the money, and there was an obvious division of labor between mother and son.
The little guy is young, but he is not sloppy at all when it comes to money and calculates very carefully. No one can take advantage of him.
The mother and son were busy all afternoon, and by evening, almost all the villagers had arrived.
The mother and son finally took a breath.
Jiang Yao did a rough calculation and found that he had collected at least two hundred kilograms!
Adding in yesterday's one hundred kilograms, this will be three hundred kilograms.
It can brew about fifteen cans.
There needs to be a special room for this jar.
Jiang Yao looked around and decided to move A Ye's room.
I remembered the way Aye was indifferent to me when we were separated last time.
Jiang Yao felt that the chance of Aye sleeping in this room was almost zero.
At first, Jiang Yao was still a little disappointed.
But now that I am focused on making money and doing business, I suddenly feel less sad.
Jiang Yao tidied up the room and put all the sealed jars inside.
In the next few days, the villagers basically plowed through the back mountain, and all the mountain grapes were wiped out.
Jiang Yao counted a total of fifty jars!
Great harvest!
After two months, the jars you put in will turn into jars of wine.
It's wonderful to think about it.
On the fifth day, almost no one came to deliver the goods.
When it got dark, two people came, carrying half a basket of mountain grapes, and they turned out to be Niu Dashan and Niu Qing!
"Yao Yao, Qing'er picked these in the past few days." Niu Dashan said.
He drove the bullock cart every day, but he didn't realize that Qing'er had heard that mountain grapes could be exchanged for money, so he went to pick them secretly.
Niu Dashan was a little angry. It would be dangerous for him to go to the mountain. He clearly told him not to go to the back mountain!
"Dad is tired of making money, Qing'er also makes money..."
Hearing this, Niu Dashan felt angry and sad.
Finally, I picked the bad ones and gave the rest to Jiang Yao.
After all, it is the fruit of Qing'er's labor.
Jiang Yao weighed it and found that it weighed more than five kilograms.
The dog then counted six copper coins and gave them to the cow to clear.
Niu Qing was very happy to get the money, with a happy smile on his silly face.
"Dad, here you go, buy some candy." Niu Qing gave it to him like a treasure.
Niu Dashan's nose felt a little sour: "This is the money Qing'er earned, and dad will keep it for you."
Jiang Yao looked at the silly and naive Niu Qing, and an idea flashed in her mind.
"Uncle Niu, there is something I want to talk to you about."
With that said, Niu Dashan and his son were greeted through the door.
