After she became the brother of the male protagonist in the imperial examination, she became the spo

However, what happened in Yaozi's family was not the same as the rumors. The next night, the Lin family learned the answer from Grandpa Lin.

"Ah, Yaozi's daughter is also unlucky. It is said that the second son-in-law went to the roof of his eldest brother's house to clear snow last winter, but he slipped and broke his waist and legs."

Grandpa Lin's words immediately caused all the Lin family members in the main room to fall silent. Even little Yaya opened her eyes wide, as if she understood.

"And then?" Grandma Lin asked reluctantly.

In fact, looking at the old man's face, he was afraid that the child was in great danger.

"I took him to the town to see a doctor, but it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, so he needs to be taken care of. But now half a year has passed, and he is still paralyzed in bed. I am afraid, oh, I am afraid he will not be able to get up."

Grandpa Lin let out a heavy breath as he spoke. What he didn't say was that Yaozi's son-in-law's eldest brother and his family did very well at first, but later, when they saw that their younger brother was probably useless, they found excuses to stop interacting with him.

"Second Mother's child is not yet very old, right?" Fang Cuihua asked after thinking for a moment.

"That's right. That girl got married two years earlier than Erniu. The oldest child in the family is just as big as an egg. Now that the only labor force in the family has fallen, how can we live? Amitabha." Grandma Lin felt that life was simply too hard at this moment!

"No wonder Yaozi has been less talkative recently. Alas, life is too difficult." Lin Daniu also sighed softly.

When they were young, the brothers Lin Daniu and Lin Erniu had a very good relationship with the boys and girls in Yaozi's family.

But as they grew up, men and women had their own differences, so the two brothers didn't know much about Er Niang's situation. When they heard about her recent situation, they couldn't help but feel sad.

When it comes to hard times, no one understands them better than these two brothers. When they were young, there was no labor force in their family. Even now, when they think of those days, they burst into tears.

"What does that aunt's family do?" Seeing that everyone was immersed in a sad atmosphere, Guangdan simply asked.

"What else can we do? We have some land at home, and the couple can stay at home and farm the land." After saying this, Grandma Lin looked at Guangdan with some anticipation.

"Oh, by the way, how is elder sister's needlework?" Guangdan turned his head and asked Daya and her husband who were sitting in the corner.

"Ah? Me? I'm just so-so. I can make ordinary clothes for myself and knit a few laces, but not anything else." Daya said honestly, with a hint of embarrassment on her face.

"That's fine. What about that aunt? She should be able to do some simple needlework, right?" Guangdan looked at his grandmother and asked.

"Yes, there is no girl who can't sew!" After saying this, the little old lady glared at Erya who was pretending to be stupid beside her.

Then he looked at his eldest daughter-in-law with some anger.

Erya waited for her grandmother to turn her eyes away, then immediately made a face at Guangdan with her teeth bared.

"Actually, I also have an idea. How about you listen to it?" Guangdan said seriously to his family members in the main room.

"Well, you go ahead and let us listen." Grandpa Lin waved his hand, signaling Guangdan to speak quickly.

"I was thinking about having my uncle go to the surrounding mountains to collect furs after the house is built, and then sell them to the capital city. We won't let the middlemen make a profit from the price difference."

When Guangdan said this, he ignored the surprised expressions on everyone's faces in the room and continued to express his own thoughts.

"But now I think, if we process the furs a little more, will we make more money?"

When Guangdan said this, Fang Cuihua immediately understood what he meant.

"Do you mean to make clothes from those leathers?" Fang Cuihua was still a little uncertain when she asked, mainly because she felt that her family didn't have the skills to do so.

Guangdan waved his hands quickly: "No, no, mother, you are thinking too big. If we don't make them into clothes, we can make them into leather hats, leather boots, knee pads, gloves, etc. We can save the good materials and sell them as a whole, and make the inferior ones into small items like these and sell them directly."

After saying this, Guangdan looked at everyone expectantly.

"Sure, this is more attractive than selling materials! Let's do it! Everyone, think about it, what else do you need this winter?" Lin Xiaoniu said excitedly, rubbing his hands.

"In that case, we can let Yaozi ask her daughter to make those little gadgets with the lower quality materials at home, and then sell them together. It's a good idea." After understanding Guangdan's meaning, Grandpa Lin nodded in agreement.

At this time, Fang Cuihua looked at her eldest daughter and said directly without paying attention to others: "We have a lot of materials left at home. Let's discuss it when we have time. You can take it back and make a pair of leather boots for everyone in the family. We can see what to make of the rest and sell it when the time comes."

Daya nodded repeatedly after listening to her mother's words and said frankly that she would definitely do it seriously.

"It's calculated based on the wages, and charged by piece." Guangdan explained in advance.

As a result, everyone in the room had another lively discussion about this sentence, but when the Lin family went to bed at night, they still felt heavy-hearted.

Because even if Guangdan came up with the whole method, it would only work for a short period of time and would not be enough to support a family.

But what can be done?

Guangdan felt that he was powerless. He just traveled through time and space, not a savior. He just lay on the kang, feeling sad and unable to sleep.

"Are there any mosquitoes?" Goudan's voice came from the side.

"Ah?" Guangdan didn't react for a moment and asked in confusion.

"You're tossing and turning. Are there mosquitoes? I'll get up and light some more mugwort in the yard." Goudan said as he prepared to get up and go to the yard.

"No, no, I was just thinking about what happened during the day. I thought that every family has its own problems." Guangdan stared with his eyes wide open in the dark and sighed softly.

After hearing what he said, Goudan lay down again, and after a long time he let out a soft sigh.

"Thank you, second brother."

The sudden thanks made Guangdan confused again. What did this connect with?

"I know, if it weren't for you, it would be hard for me to concentrate on my studies. Things are getting better at home, but I know that all this has to do with you. Although I don't know what happened to you, I want to thank you."

Goudan said all these words in one breath and instantly felt much more relieved.

"You, hey, forget it. Now, you are responsible for taking care of Goumao to study hard, and I will be responsible for taking care of the family to make money. We two brothers have a clear division of labor and work together, and we will definitely be able to make our Lin family better." Guangdan suddenly felt at this moment that he seemed to have comrades-in-arms, the kind of comrades-in-arms from the neighboring regiment.

Although they are not in the same group, their goals are the same, that's the feeling.

"Well, wait until I learn more, I will teach you in the future, and I will definitely take you to take the imperial examination together!" Goudan's tone seemed like a vow, which made Guangdan feel cold all over.

Really, there is no need to do that! Suddenly I had a bad feeling again!

"Also, regarding the affairs of Uncle Yaozi's family, we should do our best and leave the rest to fate. The Master said that some hardships cannot be avoided."

Guangdan felt like he didn't know what to say at this moment because he was comforted by a child.

The two little brothers were chatting idly, and gradually they heard a small snoring sound.
