Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 45 Villagers Asking for Help 2

Seeing that the yard was full of neighbors and fellow villagers, Wei moved some benches from the main house and asked them to sit down one by one in the yard.

As the name suggests, the old lady smiled and asked, "Hey... is this the young wife that Ah Hai just married?"

Grandmother Zheng smiled and responded, "Yes, Auntie, please sit over here."

The old woman smiled and praised, "Look at how pretty this young wife is!"

Grandfather Jiang Wuwen closed the fish tank, wiped the water off his hands, and said to the people in the yard, "Everyone is here! Sit down!"

Everyone stopped laughing and chatting, and looked at Jiang Wuwen intently.

Jiang Wuwen slowly walked to the eaves and sat down. He picked up his pipe and prepared to smoke. Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he said, "Don't look at me. If you have any questions, just ask my granddaughter."

The grandmother stood beside An Yue and introduced her to everyone with a smile: "My granddaughter is An Yue, you can just call her Yue Yue."

The first person to stand up was Zhang Dacai, who said, "Yueyue, I'm Zhang Kai's brother next door, and my name is Zhang Dacai. We came here today to learn how you sell your fish. Please introduce us to someone you know."

Another old woman also said: "Yes, we can also fish for some money to supplement our family income."

Chen Dazhi's wife whispered, "Yes, yes, it's almost New Year's Day, and the two little ones at home don't have new coats yet!"

Several people spoke one after another, and then the voices became more and more numerous and louder.

Grandfather Jiang Wuwen looked at the chaos and shouted, "Everyone, be quiet!"

Everyone began to quiet down again, and many pairs of eyes were staring at An Yue.

Seeing that they had all quieted down, An Yue took a few steps forward and said, "First of all, the idea of ​​selling fish was indeed mine. Secondly, the person who collected the fish would only accept the fish I sent him."

After hearing this, everyone was very puzzled and asked: "Why do they only accept the fish you sent?"

"I don't intend to hide this issue from you, so I'll tell you straight away."

Everyone sat nicely and listened to An Yue attentively.

"I signed a contract with the fish collector, so he could only take my fish."

"So what you mean is that even if we catch fish, we won't be able to sell them?"

An Yue nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes! That person won't accept it, but if you set up a stall to sell it, maybe someone will buy it."

After hearing this, everyone was instantly disappointed.

The old woman said dejectedly, "In our paddy fields, there are so many fish, big and small, that it's a problem! I saw you guys can make money fishing, so I wanted to go fishing with you, but in the end I can't sell my fish."

With just a few words, An Yue dampened everyone's expectations.

Chen Dazhi's wife also lowered her head and said disappointedly: "Hey... I said I would buy two winter coats for the two kids, but it seems that's not going to work."

Seeing everyone looking down in despair, my grandmother said, "As you all know, fish is considered inedible meat in the eyes of our villagers. There are very few people who collect fish."

No one had the excitement they had when they first arrived anymore. Everyone had a disappointed look on their face, sighing and shaking their heads.

Seeing this, An Yue didn't know what to say, but she still wanted to say something nice to comfort her.

"Don't be discouraged, everyone has their own difficulties. We are also having problems selling fish at the moment."

"Of course, we have to solve the problems we encounter one by one."

"How about you all wait a little longer until I solve the current problem, and then I can find a way to help you?"

After smoking his pipe, my grandfather shook the pipe and said, "It's not easy for her to think of this idea at such a young age. If she can help everyone make money, that would be great."

"Now she has also encountered problems and can't even protect herself, how can she help everyone? Even if she has great abilities, she still has to save herself first! Think about it, everyone, is this the truth?"

Although Zhang Dacai looked a little disappointed, he still stood up and turned to everyone and said, "It's getting late, why don't we all go back first! Just like Uncle Jiang said, wait until the little girl solves her own problems, and then come back to help us think of a solution, is that ok?"

Then, a group of people slowly stood up and said, "Then... Yueyue, you must help us think of a solution."

"Okay, okay, but Yueyue still wants to remind everyone not to expect to make a fortune by selling fish."

The old woman said, "No one dared to think about getting rich, they just thought about selling the fish in their paddy fields to make some change to supplement their family income."

After saying that, a group of people walked out of the yard gate one after another.

When my grandmother saw the group of people in the yard disperse, she called An Nian and went directly to the kitchen to start cooking dinner.

After there was no one else in the yard, the uncle leaned close to An Yue's ear and whispered, "Yueyue, are you really going to help them?"

"Uncle, we are in trouble now. Whether you can help me or not will depend on me delivering the fish to the restaurant in person this time."

Grandfather also came over and said to An Yue, "Yueyue, don't think too much. As I said before, helping them is a favor, and not helping them is also your duty."

An Yue knew that her grandfather was a man who cared a lot about his reputation and that his personal prestige in the village was always very high. He said this to her simply because he didn't want to put too much pressure on herself.

An Yue nodded, and together with her uncle, moved the bench back to the main room.

At this time, Wei deliberately moved closer to An Yue and whispered, "I was wondering why you and your grandchildren have been missing for days. So you went fishing to make money?"

An Yue ignored her and moved the bench into the main room.

Wei pretended to lend a hand and asked curiously, "Yueyue, can you tell my aunt how much silver you can sell at a time?"

"It's dark now, and I can't see the ground clearly. Aunt, you're pregnant, so you'd better be careful."

She followed An Yue back and forth, and was really annoyed by her and couldn't get away from her.

When Wei heard what An Yue said, her expression changed as if she was turning the pages of a book. She stood there and stomped her feet in anger, but she didn't follow An Yue anymore.

After An Yue and her uncle moved the benches in the yard, they prepared to go to the kitchen to help.

Wei didn't find out anything, so she had to go back to her room.

As soon as An Yue entered the kitchen, her grandmother said to her, "Yueyue, you didn't eat a single bite of the pork with wild garlic you cooked last time. Tonight, grandma has brought out a large piece of pork belly. Cook it again and let us all have a taste this time."

When An Nian and An Yue heard that there was meat to eat, their eyes lit up instantly. They smiled and hurriedly started picking wild garlic. Thinking that they would soon be able to eat pork belly fried with wild garlic, An Yue started drooling.
