Chapter 75 Get the Money Back

After eating, everyone slumped in their chairs, rubbing their round bellies. Washing the dishes was temporarily put aside because they were so full that even moving a finger seemed a bit difficult.

Under the table, two wild cats were gnawing bones intently. On the table, the girls were chatting about the upcoming Qiqiao Festival.

Song Ran asked, "Are you going to the city the day after tomorrow?"

Granny Gu nodded and said, "Of course I will go! I have already gone to the city today to ask Boss Jia about the size of the lanterns. I will rush to make the lanterns tonight and tomorrow to ensure that they can be delivered on time on July 7th."

"It's quite a rush." ​​Song Ran sighed.

Grandma Gu smiled and said, "This is the last order of the year." She is old and can only pick up two pieces of land to grow crops to make a living.

The remaining land was picked up by others for planting, and after the harvest they would carry a shoulder pole to her.

Fortunately, she did not lose her job. She usually made baskets and dustpans and sold them to the villagers. In addition, the two solar terms in a year were also an important source of income for her. In order to sell more bamboo weaving during the Qiqiao Festival and the Lantern Festival, she had to work hard.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I will go to the city to deliver goods tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. There are a lot of orders for this Chinese Valentine's Day."

Song Ran asked: "Can you handle this?

"I can handle it." Su Xiaoxiao replied. The three little guys were convinced by her after eating her roast chicken. Now she could order them around at will.

It turns out that only when you have money can you stand tall.

Late at night, Song Li sneaked out of the house carefully again.

The moonlight shone on her small figure, and she had only one thought in her mind: she had to get the money back.

Gently pushing open the door, the sudden sound startled the two wild cats in the house and they kept meowing. Song Li quickly raised her index finger to her mouth, signaling them to be quiet.

She first came to the waterwheel. After all, the waterwheel was worth money if it was kept there for a day. She mowed the grass around it.

"I'll leave to you guys for tonight."

"Wow, wow, wow! Work! Work!" The little grasses seemed to understand Song Li's words and swayed their bodies excitedly.

Under Song Li's catalysis, they stirred the waterwheel rhythmically like two hands. The waterwheel began to turn slowly, and the water flow also accelerated, making a "gurgling" sound.

Song Li nodded with satisfaction, turned around and headed towards the city.

There are many patrols in the city tonight.

Fortunately, the grass in the dog hole was deep enough and she was small enough. She could now manipulate plants within a hundred meters, and she was a little further away from the pharmacy and successfully got the money.

After getting the money, she carefully looked around and made sure there was no danger before she cautiously set out on her way home.

Late at night in the south alley of the city, all the dogs are asleep.

The moonlight poured down, illuminating a room where the lights were still on.

Wang Shumei paced back and forth anxiously. Her son Zhang Gaopeng had not returned yet, which made her very worried.

Her daughter-in-law didn't listen to her advice and kept waiting.

She looked at her daughter-in-law's haggard face and felt distressed. She gently advised, "Mother Yun, you have just finished your confinement and cannot stay up late. You should go to bed early."

Yunniang smiled and shook her head, and replied softly: "It's okay, mother, he has fallen asleep, I will wait for Gao Peng."

Zhang Gaopeng dragged his tired body back home. He saw that there was still candlelight in the house, so he stretched his shoulders twice, put away his tired look, and tried to look more energetic. He walked into the house and asked with concern: "Mom, Ayun, why don't you rest yet?"

Wang Shumei immediately went to meet him and looked at her son distressedly: "God, you are finally back. Gao Peng, would you like a bowl of hot noodle soup?"

Zhang Gaopeng nodded, showing a tired but warm smile: "Okay, Mom, thank you for your help."

Seeing his mother enter the kitchen, Zhang Gaopeng leaned on Yun Niang and said, "Ayun, do you and your daughter miss me?"

Yunniang patted Zhang Gaopeng gently and said angrily, "Mingzhu couldn't wait for you today, so she cried for a while and fell asleep."

"Did you cry?"

"Not serious."

Zhang Gaopeng took a deep breath of the fragrance from Yunniang's neck, then stood up straight and said seriously: "Ayun, I may be busy for a while. You and mother should go to bed early. Help me clean up a room tomorrow. I will sleep in that room for the time being to avoid disturbing you."

"How can I do this? I have nothing to do during the day at home, how can I bear the hardship of keeping watch all night?"

Zhang Gaopeng smiled and said softly, "Ayun, you are already exhausted from taking care of Mingzhu. She sleeps for a while and wakes up for a while, so you can't sleep well. Don't stay up late waiting for me. Just leave a light on for me."

At this time, Wang Shumei came out with a bowl of hot noodles: "Come on, Gao Peng, have something hot."

Zhang Gaopeng took the noodles and looked at his mother gratefully: "Mom, I just told Yun Niang that you don't have to wait for me in the future. I will be fine after I am busy during this period."

Wang Shumei sighed and said distressedly: "Oh, what a hassle! You didn't enjoy it before and had some free time. Now you are busy like a top every day."

Zhang Gaopeng consoled him, "Hey, although I'm busy now, it's much better than before. The new county magistrate is very caring towards his subordinates, not only will the lunch be better, but the monthly salary may also increase significantly."

Wang Shumei and Yunniang smiled happily when they heard this: "Really?"

"Really? At least you can eat the mushrooms you've been thinking about more often from now on."
