Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

I originally wanted to lead the villagers to dig herbs together, but it seems that digging herbs has become extremely difficult.

Walk into the yard and sit down in the main house.

Qin brought a bowl of water to An Yue and said, "Don't be discouraged, Yue Yue. There are refugees everywhere and families in other villages are fleeing. Who knows, the government may change its mind someday!"

An Yue nodded absentmindedly, picked up the bowl and drank some water.

It suddenly occurred to her that there was some toilet water and honey at home.

I'll be packing them in cans these days. After sending the herbs to the pharmacy in town, I'll also send the floral water to the county town. This will be a good opportunity for me to inquire about the situation in the county town.

If you can buy more food rations, you must buy more.

So, she quickly stood up and said goodbye to Qin: "Aunt, Yueyue has other important things to do at home, so I will go back first." After saying that, Anyue stood up to get the backpack.

"Okay, okay, then Yueyue, go back and be careful." Qin stood up and walked An Yue to the gate of the yard.

After An Yue came out of the village chief's house, she thought about delivering the herbs to the pharmacy in town tomorrow.

So she went to Li Wu's house again.

After a while, we arrived at Li Wu's home.

Li Wu's home is a mixture of adobe and thatched houses, surrounded by a bamboo fence and a small farmyard.

An Yue shouted at the top of her voice: "Uncle Li, are you home?"

After shouting twice, a woman poked her head out of the house. She was Li Wu's wife.

An Yue asked Li Wu's wife, "Aunt, is uncle at home?"

Li Wu's wife is short and fat. Because she has been doing needlework at home all year round, her eyesight is a little blurry. She is a person who likes to joke around.

Li Wu's wife walked closer to An Yue and recognized her as An Yue: "Hey, why does your voice sound so familiar? It turns out to be Yue Yue."

"Oh, by the way, Yueyue came at such a bad time. Your Uncle Li has been driving his ox cart to the town and hasn't come back yet. What does Yueyue want to talk to him about?"

An Yue smiled and replied, "Early tomorrow morning, at 11:00 a.m., Yue Yue wants to transport some things to town, and would like to ask Uncle Li for help."

Li Wu's wife smiled and asked An Yue to confirm the specific time: "Okay, okay, tomorrow at 11:00 a.m., okay?"

"Yes! Auntie." An Yue responded obediently.

"Okay, when he comes back, I will tell him the truth."

"Well, thank you very much, Auntie."

"Oh! Don't be polite, Yueyue, come in and sit for a while!" said Li Wu's wife, preparing to go and open the gate of the yard.

An Yue waved her hand and smiled, saying politely, "Aunt, Yueyue has other important things to do when she returns home! I won't come into the house now, and I'll visit you another day."

Li Wu's wife readily agreed: "That's fine, since Yueyue has other important things to do, then Auntie won't force Yueyue to stay."

Afterwards, An Yue carried a basket on her back and walked along the road towards the east end of the village, digging herbs.

She calculated in her mind that her family only had two acres of land, one acre was planted with wheat, and the other acre was planted with vegetables and potatoes. After paying the tax, there would probably not be a few liters of wheat left.

Fortunately, I bought some food rations last time I went to the county town.

If the food rations were used to make porridge, they would barely be enough for the whole family to eat for a while if times were tight.

At this moment, An Yue couldn't help but secretly mocked in her heart: [I originally wanted to be a small rich woman, but I didn't expect that I would end up drinking porridge. ]

On the way home, An Yue was worried. The drought was still continuing and she didn't know when it would rain.

She was depressed in her heart: [Ah! In the past, when I watched TV and read novels, people who traveled through time either brought a system or a divine spring, or at least a large storage space. When it was my turn, humph! This is great, there is only a cellar dug by hand. ]

When An Yue thought of this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It became very difficult to dig the herbs because the leaves were eaten by locusts.

She came to the vicinity of Wang's house and told them to send the herbs to An's house for weighing. Then, she walked all the way home.

It was almost the end of the You hour when An Yue finally dug a small basket of herbs.

At this time, Chunzhi and Meng Xiuer were already preparing dinner in the kitchen.

An Nian also came back from the town school and was sitting in the yard reading a book. Ba Shi was lying beside An Nian.

After An Yue returned home, she dried the herbs and wanted to sit down and rest for a while.

dong dong dong.

"Yueyue, are you home?" Wang Keer shouted outside the door.

It was the Wang family who came to weigh the herbs, and An Yue hurried to open the gate of the yard.

An Yue smiled and said, "Come in, everyone!" Everyone entered the room.

An Yue began to prepare for the weighing.

Da Niu A'er was not at home, so the Wang father and son lifted the scale rope, and An Yue carefully weighed the weight and recorded it.

……

After a while, their herbs were weighed, and An Yue counted the money they had paid for the herbs one by one.

Wang Ke'er said with a worried look on her face: "Yueyue, now that drought and locust plagues have occurred simultaneously, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find these herbs."

An Yue nodded in affirmation and said, "Yes, that's right! But if you have any herbs you can still send them to us."

Wang Ke'er raised her head and smiled, saying innocently, "Even if herbs are hard to find, I can still earn more than embroidering handkerchiefs."

Wang Hu, carrying the backpack in the air, walked behind Wang Ke'er and joked, "You've been thinking about running away all day. You're almost going crazy."

Wang Keer rolled her eyes at her eldest brother Wang Hu, then hugged An Yue's arm and said affectionately, "It would be great if I could do whatever I want like Yue Yue!"

"Okay, okay, tell mom when you get home and see if she will let you go out." Wang Hu pretended to be threatening.

Wang Zhengmin saw An Yue approaching with a backpack on his back and said, "Yueyue, it's getting late, so let's go back first."

"Okay, uncle, you can send me the herbs whenever you dig them." An Yue said with a smile.

Wang Zhengmin nodded and said, "Of course, of course."

After saying this, Wang Zhengmin carried a backpack and walked towards the gate of the courtyard. Wang Hu and his wife Yao followed closely behind him.

When Wang Ke'er heard her father say that he was going home, she still hugged An Yue's arm tightly.

With a reluctant look on her face, she pressed against An Yue's cheek and said coquettishly, "Yue Yue, I don't want to leave. I want to be with you."

Wang Hu walked a few steps and found that Wang Ke'er didn't follow him. He turned his head and saw that Wang Ke'er was still clinging to An Yue and was unwilling to leave.

He turned back, smiled and said, "Let's go!"

Then he grabbed Wang Ke'er and the small backpack and walked towards the gate of the yard.

It should be said that at this moment, Wang Ke'er was being carried away alive by her elder brother Wang Hu, just like a kitten.

Wang Ke'er kicked her legs in mid-air and shouted, "Wang Dahu, put me down quickly! Wang Dahu..."

Wang Hu looked at Wang Ke'er's angry expression and couldn't help but laugh: "Haha, you short-legged guy still wants to kick me!"
