Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her

After Grandma Wang left, the villagers gathered in front of the Li family’s door and saw Li Mengyue give Grandma Wang five cents.

In fact, everyone knew very well that the locusts in Grandma Wang’s small bamboo basket definitely did not weigh more than five kilograms.

But Li Mengyue was very generous. Not only did she confirm the fact of collecting locusts, but she also let everyone see how Li Mengyue behaves in society.

Many villagers were originally worried that although Li Mengyue was a fake daughter, she had returned from the capital after all, and they might look down on them or be difficult to get along with.

Now they don’t have so many concerns. After all, Li Mengyue can speak to Grandma Wang gently, and they are confident that she is no worse than Grandma Wang.

So after Li Mengyue sent Grandma Wang away, she suddenly felt a burning sensation on her back.

When I turned around, I was shocked.

No one wants to be looked at by a group of people with shining eyes.

Seeing that the villagers were eagerly waiting for her to speak, Li Mengyue did not disappoint them and said seriously: "Line up, one by one."

As soon as the words fell, all the villagers dared not breathe, and quickly lined up in a long queue as Li Mengyue requested.

When we got home, Li had already moved the tables and chairs out of the house.

"Mom, please stop working and help me go to the village chief's house to borrow some pens, ink, paper and scales."

The reason why these things were not prepared was that it was Li Mengyue's first time doing business and she had no experience.

When she saw the great god standing before her, holding a small bamboo basket, she realized that she needed a scale, as well as pen, ink, and paper to keep accounts.

She is doing business, and although she doesn't plan to do it for a long time, she can't be perfunctory.

After all, no matter what she does, once she makes a decision, she will go all out and will never deal with it casually.

When Mrs. Li heard her daughter's words, she immediately replied "OK".

After Li left, Li Mengyue said calmly, "Everyone, please be patient. We don't have a scale at home, so we can't measure the weight."

"Li's girl, I understand. You just separated yesterday and there is nothing at home. We are waiting."

"Yeah! It won't take too long anyway. We just came too early."

"Yes, we came too early and disturbed Yue's sleep!"

Li Mengyue asked everyone to wait a little longer. Not only did she not complain, she also found an excuse for herself, so she didn't have to waste any more words.

To be honest, she was still a little surprised that people would come to her house to sell locusts before dawn, and she also gained a new understanding of the poverty in Xinghua Village.

After all, the price she paid for the locusts, one cent per pound, was really not expensive, in fact it was a bit cheap.

However, she set this price after careful consideration.

On the one hand, although there are not many locusts in the fields now, as the eggs continue to hatch, the number of locusts will increase and will grow exponentially. By then, it is estimated that every household will catch a lot of locusts every day.

At present, not many locusts are caught, but in the process of catching them, the villagers' catching ability can be trained. When the number of locusts increases, the efficiency will increase. In the same amount of time, several times more locusts can be caught than now.

By then, even one cent per pound would not be a small amount.

On the other hand, she was going to make fried locusts and sell them at a stall in town. The price would not be very high, only five cents per pound.

Families that are a little better off would be willing to buy some for their children to try.

Besides, fried locusts are a kind of food that is not presentable to the rich. If the price is too high, it will be equivalent to blocking the way for ordinary people to buy them.

They also sell fried locusts, which is not originally for the purpose of making money, but to make people no longer afraid of locusts and no longer be afraid of the tiny locusts.

Li's side.

Since their home was quite far from the village chief's home, she was worried that it would delay her daughter's business, so she tried to walk faster even though she was feeling weak.

However, what she didn't expect was that before she had walked far, she ran into the village chief's aunt and her daughter-in-law Tonghua.

He quickly walked forward and politely asked, "Good morning, Auntie. Where are you going? I was just about to go to your house."

"morning."

When the village head's wife heard that Li was going to her house, she asked in confusion, "Go to my house? Miss Yue didn't tell you that she wanted me to go to your house to help."

"Ah! Yueyue didn't say anything. It's just that many villagers came to my house, bringing locusts to sell."

"Aunt, you know that I don't have a scale at home. Yueyue asked me to borrow a scale from your house, as well as a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, saying that she would use it for accounting."

"Oh, I don't care. When I got up in the morning, I thought about it. I have a scale with me, so you don't have to go home."

Li was talking to the village head's wife and didn't really notice the scale on her aunt's hand.

Seeing that there really was a scale, he followed the words of the village head's wife and said, "Auntie, let's go back quickly, everyone is waiting."

"Really? I thought I got up early enough, but I didn't expect that there would be so many people waiting before daybreak. It seems that the villagers arrested a lot of people yesterday."

"Yes!" Li responded.

……

After a while, Li and the village chief's wife arrived at Li's house together.

"Look, it's been borrowed back."

Before Li and the village head's wife arrived at the door, a sharp-eyed villager spotted the two of them.

And someone thought the two of them were walking too slowly, so he ran over, took the scale from the village chief's wife, said thank you, and turned and ran away.

When the village chief's wife saw this scene, she felt a little sad and a little happy. Anyway, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

But one thing is true, she is truly happy for the villagers and wants them to live a good life.

In this way, his wife won’t have to worry every day, and the food in the house won’t have to be taken away by the old man to support those families in the village who can’t get enough food.

In this way, life at home will be more relaxed and my son and daughter-in-law won't have to work so hard.

Especially the second son’s wife, her health has not been very good since she gave birth to Duoduo. She is rather weak. If she eats more good foods to replenish herself, maybe in two years she will have a grandson in her arms.

Thinking of this, the village head's wife's wrinkled face beamed with joy, and she walked faster and faster, leaving Li behind.

When Li heard the village head's wife say that her daughter asked her to come over to help, she knew that her daughter was worried about her and was too busy.

Originally she thought that this was not a tiring task, but when she saw so many people queuing up, she realized that someone had to weigh the items and do the accounting and payment.

After finishing all these, I also need to process the soybean paste and make it into fried snacks, and then wait for my daughter to take it to the town to sell.

Thinking of this, Li unconsciously quickened her pace. She had to go home quickly to help her daughter and not let her get tired.

Now it seems that my daughter is not only my family’s treasure, but also the hope of the whole village, a hope that can bring more income to the village.

No matter how active Li's mind was, locusts had already begun to be collected in the Li family's yard.
