I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm
Chapter 24 Smart as me
Ye Ze smiled and said, "Mother is really good at judging the value of a commodity. This wild ginseng is at least a hundred years old. I estimate that it can be sold for at least three to five hundred taels of silver."
Old Lady Ye's lips trembled. Three or five hundred taels of silver? Her son made three or five hundred taels of silver in one go? !
"Ze'er, hurry up and put it away."
"Mom, do you think my luck has improved because I married Zhao Li?" Ye Ze wrapped the ginseng again and brought the topic back to Zhao Li.
Old Mrs. Ye was also uncertain at this moment. Ye Ze had often gone up the mountain before, so how come he hadn't found this ginseng? That was a century-old ginseng. Wasn't her son's luck too good?
Could it be that Zhao was really a lucky charm for her husband? She had only been married for two or three days when her son's fortunes began to improve?
Not only did he help the tribe members to dig herbs and sell them for money, but he himself also got such a great opportunity all of a sudden. If it weren't for the fact that the Zhao family was good for her husband, Old Lady Ye couldn't find a better reason to explain Ye Ze's good luck.
"Thank God for letting such a good daughter-in-law like Zhao Li marry into our family. Our family will definitely get better and better in the future. No wonder old lady Yang had already arranged for Zhao to be Shen Wenren's daughter-in-law. This is a good deal for our family!"
Old Lady Ye clasped her hands together and muttered a few words, then said to Ye Ze: "Brother Ze, after you sell the ginseng, why don't you go back to school to study? With Zhao as your wife, you may be able to pass the imperial examination soon and surpass the Shen family!"
Ye Ze╯﹏╰, why are you bringing this upon me?
"Mom, I don't want to go to school anymore. I've already wasted three years. I can't study even if I go to school. It's better to let Li Ge'er go. He's at a good age to study."
Old Mrs. Ye was unwilling: "Then you..."
"I make money, and I guarantee that the children of our Ye family will be able to read and write in the future. By then, the children of our Ye family will have a promising future, and girls will have no trouble finding a husband, and boys will have no trouble finding a wife. Li Ge'er is your grandson, and if he can study hard and pass the imperial examination, won't our Ye family also benefit from it?"
Old Mrs. Ye nodded thoughtfully.
After Ye Ze left, Old Lady Ye lay alone on the bed and thought about what happened in the past three days after Zhao Li came into the house. She found that Ye Ze really had changed since the day Zhao Li came into the house...
next day
Boss Ye and his men went up the mountain early as usual. Mrs. Lin cleaned up the dishes. When Zhao Li was about to go to the backyard to feed the chickens and pigs, she was stopped by Mrs. Ye: "Let your second sister-in-law do the job of feeding the chickens and pigs in the future."
Zhao Li: "...Okay, then I'll help you massage your back." Zhao Li hesitantly walked behind Old Lady Ye and gently massaged her back.
Yesterday, Old Lady Ye asked her to massage her back, and it lasted for half a day. Now her arms are still sore. Massaging backs is not an easy job. It would be better for her to feed the chickens and pigs.
Chen looked at Zhao Li, then at Old Lady Ye. Why me? In the past, when her two nieces didn't have to go up the mountain, she didn't have to do any housework at home. This also made Chen think that there was no work to do. She gave birth to two sons for the Ye family. She was a great contributor to the Ye family. How could she be asked to do any work?
Chen pursed her lips and said reluctantly: "Mother, Hongge'er..."
"If you don't want to work, go back to your parents' home!" Before Chen could finish her words, she was interrupted by Old Lady Ye's fierce warning.
This sentence hit Chen's soft spot directly. Chen was so scared that she shrank her neck and smiled apologetically: "I'll go, I'll take care of feeding the chickens and pigs at home from now on, hehe..."
"Hmph!" Old Lady Ye snorted unhappily. This second daughter-in-law always used the child as an excuse to play tricks on Lin. Old Lady Ye was too lazy to care and just turned a blind eye to it. How dare she play tricks in front of the old lady? Isn't this asking for trouble?
"Okay, you, take a good rest, and let's talk." Seeing Chen go to the backyard, Old Lady Ye softened her tone, raised her hand and patted Zhao Li's hand.
Zhao Li paused and spoke carefully, "Mom, I'm not tired."
"sit down."
"it is good..."
Seeing Zhao Li's reservedness, Old Lady Ye softened her tone a bit: "Zhao, after spending these two days together, I can see that you are a good person. From now on, I will treat you as my own daughter. You should be the same as you are in my family. There is no need to be so reserved."
"Well, I'm glad that mother doesn't mind that Li'er is clumsy." Zhao Li was surprised and delighted to hear Old Lady Ye say this to her. The old lady was very picky about her and ordered her around yesterday, so why did she change her attitude today?
"How could that be? You are so well-behaved and sensible, I can't wait to like you." Old Mrs. Ye laughed and said, "When the big market in town comes, let's go to the market. I will buy you two pieces of cloth to make two new clothes. After all, you are the new daughter-in-law of our Ye family, you can't let others look down on you!"
"......Um."
Before Ye Ze stepped into the main room, he saw the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatting happily. He couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up in his heart. I am so smart!
Old Lady Ye looked up and saw Ye Ze standing stupidly at the door: "Brother Ze, are you up? Come on, there's food left for you in the kitchen."
"I'll bring it to my husband." Zhao Li said and got up and went to the kitchen.
......
After breakfast, Ye Ze borrowed the village chief's ox cart to go to the town to sell herbs like he did yesterday, and came back around ten o'clock. After selling the ginseng today, his small treasury was instantly filled.
Since Old Lady Ye was going to take Li'er to the market to buy things, he might as well buy some food to take back. He didn't sell all the mushrooms he picked today, so he kept some for himself and gave some to the old village chief.
On the way back, Ye Ze thought of the pet he had just received yesterday, so he wanted to take Zhao Li to meet him today. Firstly, he wanted to show off, and secondly, he wanted to take Zhao Li out for some fresh air. After all, it was his own tiger, so how could he not recognize the mistress?
After sending the ox cart off, Ye Ze couldn't help laughing when he imagined what Zhao Li would look like when she saw Hu Zi. As a result, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Zhao Tao coming to his house and talking to Zhao Li.
The smile on Ye Ze's face disappeared instantly. What was she doing here?
"Li'er, my cousin is here."
"Yeah." Seeing that Ye Ze was still carrying a lot of things, Zhao Li hurried over to help him: "Why did you buy so much meat again?"
Ye Ze raised his lips and smiled: "I will teach you how to make a dish of braised pork tonight. I guarantee you can eat two more bowls of rice."
"You? Teach me?" Zhao Li asked again in disbelief. After Ye Ze nodded affirmatively, Zhao Li was stunned. He wanted to teach me how to cook? Was he crazy or was I crazy?
