In the book, I was fed by my sister

Song Li waited until everyone left before she took her sister aside and talked about her plan to make money.

Song Ran gently touched the little sister's head, then took out two copper coins from his pocket and handed them to her, and asked softly, "Don't you have any pocket money?"

Song Li quickly took the copper coins and put them into her purse, then explained: "It's enough. I just want to help Li Zi and the others. Li Zi wants to study very much, but her family can't afford the tuition. If Li Zi can earn this money, I'm sure her mother won't have any objections."

Ajie herself doesn't have a strong desire for material things. She has a little money, and besides being busy feeding the chickens and ducks at home, she spends her time chatting and talking with people in the village.

A stable and peaceful life like the one she has now is actually her biggest wish in this end times.

Although their family was not rich, at least they did not have to worry about food, clothing and other expenses. However, it did not seem appropriate to ask my sister to pay for the tuition of other children.

Besides, if we give the money directly, it is still unknown whether Li Zi’s parents will accept it!

Even if she accepted it, it was hard to predict whether she would have other thoughts. She had seen too many things in the end times. She only knew these little friends in front of her. As for what they would be like when they grew up and what their families were like, she had no idea.

If Li Zi and her friends could earn the tuition money through their own efforts, her brothers and sisters would not be able to say they were partial to her in front of their parents. Song Li learned about the partiality from their conversations. There were many children in the family, and they would quarrel even over who ate an extra piece of meat.

Song Ran was very happy. Her little sister finally got along well with her friends and was considerate of everyone. She used to worry that her little sister was too withdrawn.

But once money is involved, it's okay to have a little trouble, but if... I guess those little guys can't do anything big. The only worry is that people may be disappointed in the end. However, it shouldn't be a problem to make some money to buy candy.

"Why don't you discuss with your friends and see if you can grow something? Or learn the craft of weaving bamboo from Grandma Gu. Now that Da Mai has to go to the city every few days, you can ask her to help take the things you make over to sell. But remember, you must discuss the distribution of the labor fee with everyone first."

Song Ran felt that these things might be a little difficult for a child who was only five years old, but it was also an excellent opportunity to exercise personal abilities.

Song Li nodded in approval. After all, apart from not being talkative, Da Mai was no different from other normal people. She had made the acquaintance of many people in the cell before, and most of those people had been acquitted after being tried by the former county magistrate Yang Yihe.

In other words, Da Mai has some acquaintances in the city.

"Then I'll go to the field and talk to Chestnut and the others tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Song Li went to the fields to look for chestnuts.

At this moment, the busy spring season is coming to an end. The rice seedlings have all been planted in the fields, and the wheat and bean seedlings in the fields have grown out. The busiest task at the moment is weeding.

I saw Li Zi holding a small hoe, following his parents' instructions, and carefully digging out the weeds in the ground one by one.

In fact, she was not used to using a hoe, and it was more convenient to pull it out directly.

The pulled weeds are piled up on the ridges of the fields. After being exposed to the midday sun for a while, they will wither within two days.

If a passing flock of sheep becomes interested in these weeds, they might take a bite; otherwise, they can only wait until they turn dry and yellow, light a fire on them, and bury the ashes deep in the soil.

"Chestnut~"

Li Zi was staring at a wild flower in a trance when he suddenly heard a voice and was startled: "The flower has become a spirit!"

After calming down, she realized that the voice came from behind, "Oh, it's you..." Li Zi patted his chest.

Li Zi's two older brothers, one joined the army and the other has already started a family. Her younger brothers and sisters are still young and it is difficult for them to play together.

In comparison, other children always had friends with them when they worked, but she seemed all alone.

"Are you here to work with me?"

Song Li shook her head and said, "Don't be lazy. You still need to do your own business."

"All right......"

"After you finish your work today, can you come to the hall? It would be best if you can do it when Dongmei comes back."

"it should be no problem."

"That's great. I have something important to announce."

Song Li informed everyone one by one. Although Rongrong was learning weaving at home, she was still allowed to go out and play occasionally.

When Dong Mei came to the hall today, she was surprised to find that in addition to Song Li and Miao Zhen, Rong Rong and others were also there, and even Yu E, who she hadn't played with for a long time.

Dong Mei asked curiously, "Why are there so many people here today?"

Song replied: "You will know in a moment."

After a while, when everyone was present, Song Li stood up, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Okay, I called everyone together today because I have something important to announce!"

Everyone pricked up their ears, waiting for Song Li's next words.

Song Li then continued, "We need to make money!!"

"make money?!!"

"But we are still children." Someone muttered softly.

Indeed, in their perception, their money does not truly belong to them and may be requisitioned by adults at any time.

Song Li retorted: "Children can also make money. Look at Qin Dabao, isn't he trying to make money from you?"

"Yeah, that makes sense." Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Then what do we do with the money?" asked Li Zi.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at her in disbelief. Is there anyone in this world who doesn't know the purpose of money?

"Money is very useful!"

Under the influence of her grandfather, Yu'e has a deeper understanding of the meaning of money than her peers.

In their family, whoever earns more money has more say.

The whole family relied on the cows raised by grandpa for their livelihood. Naturally, grandpa became the authority figure in the family and all matters had to be arranged by him.

The reason why Yu'e came along today was because she had asked Song Li what the matter was in advance, and only decided to come after she thought there was money to be made.

If my grandfather knew that I had the ability to make money, he would surely treat me differently.

Maybe, she will inherit all of grandpa’s cows in the future!

Song Li added: "But the money we earn can't be used to buy candy."

After hearing this, everyone wilted like a deflated ball.

"What's the use of money if you can't buy candy?"

"Use it to pay tuition! Didn't you all say before that you wanted to go to school?"

However, she never expected that children's minds were so fickle, especially the oldest, Yu'e, who was only eight years old.

What you say today may be forgotten tomorrow.

Song Li: She really can’t understand the world of children.

Yu'e saw Song Li's lost expression and quickly raised her hand: "I do!"

This story started yesterday. At that time, Sister Su was recruiting female workers, and grandpa told the family about it after he returned home.

Their family can be described as a family of illiterates, and none of their ancestors have ever received a proper education.

Grandpa couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if our family could have a girl who could read and write."

Although everyone in the village has land, my grandfather always said that you can't make money by farming, so he shifted his focus to raising cattle.

After raising cattle for a lifetime, he found that it was nothing special. Seeing Sister Xiaoxiao riding a donkey at just three months old, grandpa kept muttering: It’s better to do business to make money.

But doing business is not easy. If you don’t have unique skills or secret recipes, you can only do small business.

When Yu'e heard her grandfather's sigh yesterday, she suddenly remembered Dongmei teaching everyone to read and told her grandfather about it.

After listening to her, grandpa patted her on the shoulder and entrusted her with an important task: Follow Dongmei well in the future.
