Travel to ancient times and become rich women with your bestie

Just as I was leaning back comfortably, Mei'er, who had just finished feeding the chickens in the backyard, came out excitedly with four or five eggs: "Mom, I found eggs again. Are we going to the market the day after tomorrow?"

Going to the market? Zheng Yuan and Duan Minmin looked at each other with shining eyes. Going to the market is good, because going to the market means there are business opportunities.

After a day of hard labor, I was exhausted. If I had to grope in the fields for the rest of my life, I might as well just cut my throat and see if I could go back.

I don’t know what the mayor of the market in this era is like. In the memories of these two original incarnations, they would go straight to the stall area, sell the eggs, vegetables, etc. they brought with them, and then go to the grain and oil store to buy some rice, flour, grain and oil if necessary. They would never stay for a while.

What business opportunities can there be in the agricultural and sideline products area? It's just that the villagers bring their vegetables and poultry that can be exchanged for money to exchange with the city people. What you have, my family also has. The rice, flour, grain and oil store is just so-so, with no new ideas.

It’s not that they don’t want to go shopping in other areas, it’s that they don’t have money, and they are afraid that if they shop for a while longer, the money in their pockets will be taken away by the street vendors.

It's not easy to be the head of a household. No wonder these two old ladies are getting weirder and weirder. If anyone takes care of the food, drink, defecation and urination of such a large family, they will go crazy if they don't have anyone to help.

In modern times, it's like your boss gives you a project that's as good as shit, and you have to turn it into gold. At this moment, the two workers from the future felt sympathy.

"Yuanbao, as far as I can remember, I can only exchange eggs for some money. What about you? What do you have at home that can be exchanged for money?"

"We only have the eggs we have saved at home, nothing else."

After the two of them discussed it, they found that the thing they could exchange for money was really the eggs that were everywhere. Every family had eggs. The villagers were reluctant to eat them, so they saved them up and waited for the market day to sell them on the street. However, the rich city people didn't want them. If they were lucky, they would meet a shopping woman who bought some to cook at home or meet a restaurant who came out to buy and sell them all. Otherwise, eight out of ten times, they would have some left over.

This is really something that the poor are reluctant to eat and the rich don't want to eat. Thinking about the fact that they both had concussions and had only eaten eggs for so many days, I spit on this evil feudal society in my heart.

Finally, the two decided to take the eggs to the market on the first day of the holiday. If they could sell them, that would be great. If not, they could go to other areas to see if they could find any business opportunities.

After they agreed, Zheng Yuan got up and went home. It wasn't that they didn't want to sleep together, but the mud on their bodies was so thick that they couldn't be rubbed together. If they didn't wash themselves, it would be even more smelly. They were really afraid that they would suffocate to death at night.

After sending Zheng Yuan out, Duan Minmin hurriedly found a basin, scooped up hot water and added cold water, then went into the house. By the way, she reminded her son to add a little more water to the pot. After she finished washing, her daughters had to wash as well.

It was getting dark, and Zheng Yuan was stumbling home with the children in the dark. Before they reached the house, they saw two figures leaning on the door and looking in. Zheng Yuan was startled and stopped in his tracks.

My goodness, how could a thief be interested in this house? What's the purpose? But on second thought, there are chickens in the backyard, and there is some money and food in the house, so there are still things that people can be interested in.

The children following behind were confused, so Xu Hui Niang asked, "Mom, what's the matter?"

Zheng Yuan hurriedly hissed, "Be quiet, it seems like there's a thief in our house."

What? The children were shocked. They were already so poor that they could barely make ends meet, so why would a thief come after them? The children were so anxious that they almost cried.

Looking at the two figures, Zheng Yuan estimated that they were not very strong. At least he had two young boys, so he had a good chance of winning. So he told them, "Dashu, Erhe, when mother makes a sound, you two rush up to catch them, and mother and Hui Niang will help you hold them down. Sanni and Sizhu stay here, and if we can't win, you shout loudly that there is a thief. Got it?"

The children all nodded, not daring to breathe.

After getting ready, Zheng Yuan shouted, "Which little thief dares to steal things from your grandfather's house?!"

Dashu and Erhe rushed out, and Zheng Yuan hurriedly followed them. Suddenly, Dashu and Erhe stopped, and Zheng Yuan was not paying attention and bumped into Erhe's back.

This damn kid, why did he brake so suddenly? He rubbed his nose that was almost broken by the collision and was about to curse when he heard Dashu say, "Grandpa, grandma, why are you here?"

Grandpa? Grandma? Are these Zheng's parents-in-law?

I quickly searched my memory, and wow, it’s true.

It's not Zheng Yuan's fault that she couldn't remember. It was mainly because she subconsciously didn't accept the original identity. She only remembered that her husband was dead, so she naturally thought that her parents-in-law were also gone. Who would have thought that her parents-in-law were just scared by the original rogue and dared not come to the house.

But what is the purpose of coming here?

Zheng Yuan walked from behind his two sons to the front and said in a weak tone, "Dad and Mom, it was too dark just now and I couldn't see clearly. Sorry. Haha, come in and sit down. Sanni! Sizhu! Come here, grandpa and grandma are here."

Chen Youmao and Li Chaolan had not yet recovered from the shock of Zheng Yuan's roar, and now they were annoyed by Zheng Yuan's polite attitude.

The second son's wife was always stern every time they met, as if the old couple owed her several hundred taels, but now she apologized and even invited them in to sit down. In the past, when passing by her door, I was afraid that she would take advantage of her.

Combined with the rumors in the village over the past two days and the scene they saw in the field in the afternoon, the old couple became even more frightened. They were afraid that she would come up with some new ideas to make trouble. What would happen to the children left behind by the second son? Thinking of her dead son, Li Shuhua's eyes were red.

Zheng Yuan hurriedly opened the door: "Dad, Mom, come in quickly. Sanni, go light the fire in the kitchen and get some water to boil so that we can all wash up properly later."

I wanted to bring something to treat the old couple, but I found that the water they drank was cold, so I stopped talking. I just told the old couple to go to the kitchen, where there was a fire and some light.

When the old couple entered the kitchen, Zheng Yuan looked at them in the light from the stove. They had worked hard for most of their lives, and their faces were covered with the frost of hard work. According to the age of the original husband, the two old people were estimated to be only fifty-six or seventeen years old, but they looked a bit like they were in their seventies.

The working people were too hard-working. Zheng Yuan felt a little sad, thinking of his parents who had worked hard for half their lives. He didn't know how they were doing. He didn't remember how much his original self had messed with his parents-in-law before.

The old couple handed the bag in their hands to Zheng Yuan: "Second wife, there is nothing good at home, you can cook these brown sugar and eggs to nourish your body."

Zheng Yuan was shocked. The brown sugar and eggs were such precious things, and the old couple actually gave them to her. She quickly declined: "Dad and Mom, I'm already well. You two can take these brown sugar and eggs back to replenish your body." But the old lady didn't give her a chance to refuse, and forcefully stuffed them into her arms.

Zheng Yuan thought so too. It was a good thing for them to push it back and forth. He would just take care of the two old people more when he had the conditions. So he put down his things and asked the two old people to sit down.

Chen Youmao and Li Chaolan sat down and didn't know how to start for a moment. Firstly, they were scared after being tormented before, and they were afraid that if they said something wrong, their daughters-in-law would go crazy again; secondly, today the second daughter-in-law was unusually polite, which made them unable to say anything tougher after being prepared at home.

The old couple didn't say anything, and Zheng Yuan didn't know what to say. In this life and the last, she had no experience of getting along with her parents-in-law, let alone someone else's parents-in-law.

Finally, in the silence that made Zheng Yuan almost faint from embarrassment, Old Man Chen spoke: "Wife Jiaming, since you hit your head, no one from our family has come to see you. It's our fault. Today, your mother and I came to see you, just to ask if you can help me with anything."
