Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

The grandfather and grandson sat on the ox cart and chatted about their uncle's childhood. An Yue listened with great pleasure.

After Grandfather wrapped up his tobacco and was about to start smoking, An Yue suddenly asked curiously, "Grandfather, if we have a lot of money in the future, what would you most like to do?"

He did not smile as relaxedly as before, but instead his face darkened.

He smoked his pipe and remained silent for a moment.

Turning to An Yue, he said, "First, we need to send Nian Nian to school. He is very smart and will definitely pass the imperial examinations in the future. He is not like your uncle who was naughty when he was a child."

"Then... I will prepare a grand dowry for you. If Yueyue wants to do business, I will leave all the money to you."

At this time, An Yue didn't say anything, but just felt her nose a little sour.

Grandfather exhaled a puff of smoke, and suddenly smiled and said: "Of course, Grandfather also hopes that Yueyue can leave some money for your uncle so that his children can also go to school."

It is said that parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run.

An Yue knew very well that what her grandfather said might also be what her father and mother wanted to say to her and her sister.

Of course, their grandfather loved them very much, so he made plans for them.

The morning light rises slowly. Thank you for adding a touch of warmth to us in the cold winter, so that people walking barefoot are no longer afraid of the dark.

At this time, they saw their uncle holding a bunch of things and walking towards them from afar. An Yue quickly jumped off the ox cart and ran forward to meet him.

"Uncle, I didn't expect you to be so naughty before." An Yue teased his uncle with a sly smile.

"Dad...are you telling Yueyue those embarrassing things that happened when I was a kid again?" My uncle walked up to my grandfather and said with some displeasure.

"You dare to do it, and you are afraid of what others will say!" The grandfather smiled and rolled his eyes at his worthless son.

My uncle put the things in his hands onto the ox cart one by one, led the ox in front, and muttered quietly: "I was still young at that time, so I didn't know anything!"

"How dare you say you were young back then? How old are Yueyue and Niannian now? What were you doing when you were their age?"

"..." My uncle didn't argue anymore. Instead, he turned around suddenly, puffed up his cheeks, pretended to be bitter and hateful, and glared at An Yue.

An Yue quickly hid behind her grandfather's shoulder and complained coquettishly: "Grandfather... my uncle is mean to me."

"Grandpa has an idea for you. When your little cousin comes out, beat him until he cries! Let your uncle go and coax him. Haha..." Grandpa couldn't help laughing as he spoke.

"This is a really good idea!" An Yue said to her uncle with a provocative smile.

My uncle pretended to be annoyed and said, "Dad..., my son, that's your little grandson, how can you be a grandfather like this?"

"This is called the son paying for the father's debt! So don't bully Nian Nian and Yue Yue anymore."

An Yue pouted and shook her head: "Humph! That's right! Don't bully us anymore! Bad uncle!"

The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren bickered all the way and before they knew it they had arrived home.

An Nian was in the yard and heard the sound of an ox cart outside the gate from afar. He quickly put down the sorghum pestle in his hand and ran straight towards An Yue.

"Sister...sister..." An Nian shouted as he ran towards An Yue with his short legs.

An Yue quickly jumped off the ox cart, hugged An Nian, tapped An Nian's nose with her finger, and asked lovingly: "Niannian, are you good at home? Have you made your grandmother angry?"

An Nian pulled An Yue into the yard. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw their grandmother grinding sorghum rice.

An Nian said proudly: "No! I help my grandmother grind sorghum rice every year, and my grandmother is so happy!"

My uncle parked the ox cart outside the yard, and my grandfather carried the wooden barrels on the ox cart into the yard one by one.

The father and son unloaded the cart frame together and tied the cow in the yard.

An Yue took the snack she bought and shook it in front of An Nian. An Nian happily took the snack and sat down under the eaves to eat.

Grandma rolled sorghum rice and asked, "Yueyue, how was the fish selling business today for you three generations?"

An Yue replied: "Uh!! Grandma, speaking of this, Yue Yue was just about to discuss an important matter with everyone."

At this time, everyone looked at An Yue. It didn't sound like she was joking. Even Wei, who was in the room, came out to watch, and they all moved closer to An Yue tacitly.

"Manager Wang told me today that we should send more live fish to the restaurant in the future, at least more than 200 kilograms."

When everyone in the yard heard the news, their mouths opened in surprise.

An Yue continued, "The restaurant needs a lot of fish. We can't rely on our own people to catch them right now. We need to add more manpower."

Grandmother sat under the eaves, hugging An Nian who was eating candied haws, staring at An Yue intently, and said with a satisfied smile: "The villagers came to us for help before, but I didn't expect that Yue Yue would actually accomplish this."

At this moment, Zheng was looking at her granddaughter's pretty little face with an doting look in her eyes, which looked beautiful no matter how she looked at it.

An Yue smiled and said seriously: "Yes, Grandma, you hit the point! This is what we want to discuss."

"There are a few questions at the moment. Yueyue will raise them one by one, and then answer them one by one based on the questions. I hope everyone can help consider them."

"Questions one, how many people are needed to go fishing? Two, how much per pound is reasonable to give them? Three, the family also needs to add a large water tank to store live fish. Should we buy it or borrow it? Both are possible!"

My uncle asked, "Fishing is a way to make money. There are nearly a hundred households in the village. If everyone knew that fishing could be exchanged for money, then everyone would definitely want to fish."

Grandfather stroked his beard and said solemnly, "Yes! Everyone in the village is from the same village and clan. If this matter is not handled well, it will offend people."

An Yue said: "There are so many people in the village, and we can't take care of so many things at once. Let some people do it first, and then help others after they are in order. Now we first need to estimate how many fish each family can catch?"

Uncle Jiang Chenghai said first: "There are only two or three people in each household who can go fishing. If they have no experience in fishing, they can just calculate 50 kilograms a day."

An Yue thought that she had to make full preparations for this matter.

Putting aside other things for now, let’s try to get a few families to go fishing. My grandfather and uncle will also participate in fishing as before.

If the number of fish caught by them in a day is not enough, they can add the number of fish caught by themselves and send enough to the restaurant.

As for how much to charge them per pound, An Yue thought about it carefully and said, "Yueyue decided to buy their fish at two cents per pound. There are many fish in the paddy fields. It is no problem to catch 50 pounds of fish a day."
