"Is that so? That's fine." Liu Heng nodded.

Soon everything was weighed and the money was paid.

The passers-by who were standing behind and watching were now very nervous.

"This is bamboo shoot, can it really be eaten?" someone asked.

"Of course, it's delicious whether it's used for stir-frying meat or mixing it with cold food. You might as well buy a pound and try it. It's not expensive anyway, only three cents a pound." Zhao Guocheng was quite talkative at this moment, and his tongue was fluent.

After all, he had been selling things for such a long time this morning, so he seemed to have some experience.

"Give me two pounds."

"Give me a pound."

.......

All of a sudden, several passers-by came to buy.

Zhao Guocheng and Wang Ronghua were happily busy again, and sold several bunches of wild vegetables.

After a busy period, only a few pounds of bamboo shoots were left. The wild vegetables were all sold out, and the mushrooms were bought up by Liu Heng and Chen Qing.

"Mom, I didn't expect that the things we picked up in the mountains sell so well, especially the bamboo shoots. They are almost sold out. I estimate that they can make more money than mushrooms." Zhao Shisheng clenched his fists excitedly. He was so excited.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Wang Ronghua said happily. This was really unexpected.

Zhao Guocheng was so excited that he almost wanted to shake his legs.

My legs shook unconsciously and I laughed happily.

"If I had listened to Nannan, I would have dug more bamboo shoots. I'll go dig some when I get back." Zhao Guocheng grinned.

I never thought that bamboo shoots would sell so well.

He originally thought that with so many things, he might not be able to sell all of them today, and he would definitely have to pick some to take home, so he decided not to look for a job. He didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly.

Zhao Shiying didn't feel much emotion. What she felt most now was that she wanted to pee and she was hungry.

So Wang Ronghua took Zhao Shiying to the alley behind to help her urinate and feed her baby. Of course, she also brought Zhao Shimin with her and asked her to stand guard at the entrance of the alley.

This is the only solution.

After Zhao Shiying had eaten and drunk her fill, she fell asleep obediently.

Wang Ronghua walked out of the alley holding Zhao Shiying, followed by Zhao Shimin.

Unexpectedly, after I walked out, Zhao Guocheng, Zhao Shisheng and Zhao Shihui were packing up, and the last few pounds of bamboo shoots had been sold.

The family happily packed up and went home.

"Acheng, our family is short of a lot of things. How about we buy some today?" Wang Ronghua felt that when he made money, he should buy the things they needed. The family was short of everything right now.

"Well, let's buy what we need first. It's not good to always borrow from others." Zhao Guocheng nodded in agreement.

So Wang Ronghua started the first highlight of her life when she spent lavishly on shopping.

Although she would bargain every time she bought something and could save a few cents at least, she still felt heartbroken when she did the final calculation, as she only earned three cents today.

After buying what they needed, the family went home together.

The end of Guxian Village.

"Mom, how much money did we earn today?" Zhao Shisheng asked curiously.

He couldn't calculate. His mother was the only one in the family who could read and write. The rest of them were illiterate. They could only recognize a few words and count within ten. This was all taught by Wang Ronghua in her spare time.

"I calculated carefully, and I made more than one or two taels of silver today. Although the price of bamboo shoots is not high, they are juicy and can be weighed. Mushrooms are more expensive and the money is the easiest to make." Wang Ronghua grinned.

"Then let's have lunch quickly and go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and bamboo shoots in the afternoon." Zhao Shimin said with a grin.

"Yeah, I think so too. Although all the money is gone, we bought things and the important things for the house are now available." Wang Ronghua said with a smile. He was lucky today as the blacksmith shop had ready-made hoes, machetes and sickles, so Wang Ronghua made up his mind and bought one of each, thus spending most of the money.

He also bought coarse flour, buckwheat flour, corn flour, two pounds of brown rice, two large backpacks, a load of baskets, a load of buckets, two baskets, two round winnowing baskets for drying things, hemp ropes, cloth bags, oil and salt, bowls and chopsticks, wooden basins, pots and pans, and other kitchen utensils, and spent all his money.

"Oh, this money is not worth spending." Zhao Shimin sighed.

"Who says it isn't true? We make money quickly, but spend it even faster. It took us a whole day to make the money, but we spent it in just fifteen minutes." Zhao Shisheng said worriedly.

Zhao Guocheng and Wang Ronghua almost laughed out of anger when they saw the worried looks on the faces of the three children. The adults were not worried, but the children were.

[Mom, Dad, sisters and brothers, don't worry, we can earn more money next time, and we will definitely be able to eat meat every day in the future. ] Zhao Shiying confided.

"Great! If I can eat meat every day, I can work every day. I'm not afraid of being tired." Zhao Shisheng grinned and responded first.

"I'm not afraid of being tired. I want to eat meat and have a full meal." Zhao Shihui also clenched his fists and said confidently, as if he was swearing an oath.

"Me too." Zhao Shimin looked at her family enthusiastically.

Wang Ronghua and Zhao Guocheng looked at each other and then smiled with relief.

It turns out that things are really different after the separation.

Now that the whole family is working together, it feels like making money is much easier than before.

"Well, as long as our family is united and we love each other, everything will be fine." Wang Ronghua said with tears in her eyes.

Zhao Guocheng's eyes also became moist. He was moved. With such a family, what reason did he have not to work hard to make money?

As for the old house, no one has mentioned it yet.

In the afternoon, the family went to dig bamboo shoots and picked a lot of wild vegetables.

The next day, just after dawn, Zhao Guocheng, Zhao Shisheng and Zhao Shimin arrived at a bamboo forest.

Their purpose this time was to dig bamboo shoots.

Dig more.

I brought two backpacks and three cloth bags.

Because no one was digging, the ground was full of dirt. When the three of them got there, they worked hard and actually finished digging in half an hour. The backpacks and cloth bags they brought were almost full before the three of them went back.

After breakfast, the family went up the mountain again.

This time Zhao Shiying didn't fall asleep and was very energetic.

Looking left and right, he was thinking about eating meat again.

But she didn't see where the meat was.

"Mom and Dad, shall we go find mushrooms first?" Zhao Shimin asked.

"Well, we pick whatever we find. We want everything edible," said Wang Ronghua with a smile.

"Great!" Zhao Shisheng said and ran forward to search in the bushes.

But this time I didn’t seem to be so lucky. I searched for a long time but couldn’t find any mushrooms. I only picked a few wild vegetables.

Suddenly, Zhao Shihui's voice came from the front.

"Mom and Dad, come quickly!"
