A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman
Chapter 31 Roland's Visit
"Dad~ Mom~" Huang Mulin squeezed in between them and acted coquettishly, "When the workshop is built and makes money, you can return the one thousand taels to me~ Or I can calculate the interest and borrow one thousand taels and return me two thousand taels?"
The whole family laughed.
The little girl knows this? How dare she ask for such a high price?
However, the couple were still a little hesitant. With such a large sum of money, if the workshop could not continue, their daughter’s dowry would be gone.
This is one thousand taels, a sum of money that a poor family could never earn in several lifetimes.
They can't earn it either.
Huang Qilin's brothers looked at each other and felt that it was not a good idea to use their sister's dowry.
Huang Haolin thought for a moment and asked her, "Mumu, do you need so much money? A normal brick and tile house can be built with about 100 taels, and it can have five or six rooms. The money to build a workshop should be even less. There are still more than 400 taels in the treasury, which should be enough."
"Not enough." Huang Mulin shook his head, "I want to build a quadrangle with two entrances."
Everyone stared at her with wide eyes, "A quadrangle with two entrances?!"
"It's a very big courtyard house. We need to build a two-story building."
No one said a word.
Huang Mulin felt a little embarrassed when her family glared at her.
"I don't know if one thousand taels is enough to build a courtyard house. I also plan to build a bigger workshop. The money from the public treasury is probably enough to build a workshop. However, the materials for making fermented bean curd need costs..."
I understand. Even if I take out the one thousand taels, according to my daughter's idea, it would not be enough to spend it all.
Huang Bo and He Hui Niang had a headache.
This girl has great ambitions and does things in a drastic manner, but she is also very organized and takes everything into consideration, which makes it difficult for them to keep up with her.
Heartbroken~
"What do you want to do, Mumu?"
Huang Haolin asked, he believed that his sister must have her own ideas.
"I also need to sell some recipes to Mr. Tang, and I want to discuss other cooperation with him."
"cooperate?"
"Fermented bean curd cooperation."
Huang Mulin's face was full of confidence. "We only sell in Linhai Town. The right to sell outside Linhai Town is given to Manager Tang. He can set the price and sell it to other counties, prefectures, and even the capital. We just take the share."
Once again, I was shocked by the little girl's ambition.
Huang Bo and his wife looked at each other for a long time and felt that apart from supporting their children, they had no other good suggestions.
The four brothers had no objection. They just followed their sister’s instructions and hit wherever she pointed.
Reading, practicing calligraphy, practicing martial arts, every day is so fulfilling.
Huang Mulin's family has been very busy recently.
Huang Bo first found Huang Dachuan and asked him to find someone to help clear the weeds in the wasteland. The wage was ten cents a day, not including meals, and the work would continue until all the weeds were cleared.
Huang Dachuan agreed immediately and said that he would definitely find someone who was honest and efficient at work.
These days, removing weeds and clearing the land costs ten cents a day, which is a great thing.
Soon, everyone in the village knew about it, and they all went to the village chief's house to sign up, saying they wanted to go.
Naturally, people at Huang Bo’s old house also heard about it.
"Mom." Huang Ming leaned back on the kang, frowned, and asked her, "Did Dad leave money there before he died? It's only been a few years, not to mention the business, but I heard that he spent more than a hundred taels of silver to buy the land."
"No." Roland confirmed.
All the money was in her hands back then. Old Master Huang was gentle and not fussy. He would always ask for her opinion before anything, so she was very sure that Huang Bo did not get any money from his father.
"That's strange." Huang Ming was suspicious, his eyes full of jealousy, "Buying land and hiring people to clean up, where did they get so much money?"
Luo Lan also felt depressed. This damn eldest son had become rich but he didn't even think of honoring her! It must be that little bitch He Hui Niang's fault!
If Huang Mulin knew what her grandmother Roland was thinking, she wouldn't even bother to roll her eyes at her.
We have already severed our relationship and separated our family, why should I still think about honoring you?
Do you have the right to scold his wife and daughter?
"Mom, why don't you go over there and take a look? Otherwise, all my brother's money will be taken away by that woman."
Deng Cuihua, who had finally finished her work, was taking care of the child and taking a rest at the side. She listened to the conversation between the mother and son and gave some suggestions.
At this moment, Deng Cuihua no longer looked as pretty as before.
Ever since Huang Bo broke off the relationship, she has been almost the only one who has to take care of the dozen acres of land.
Huang Ming was a lazy man, and he was grateful if he could help pull the weeds in the two acres of land. Roland would occasionally lend a hand, but mostly he stayed at home to cook, feed the chickens, take care of the children, and tidy up the yard.
Compared with other mothers-in-law who torture their daughters-in-law, she was not bad to Deng Cuihua. After all, she was the daughter-in-law that Huang Ming liked.
Deng Cuihua worked in the fields almost from morning to night. She came back at noon, ate a quick steamed bun, coaxed her children, and went out again. She didn't come back until dark.
She had to wash clothes for the whole family at night, so she was very resentful towards Huang Bo's family.
If their family had continued to get married, she wouldn't have to work so hard in the fields, and she could stay at home comfortably with the children and enjoy the cool breeze. Unlike now, she looks several years older.
If you are unhappy, you naturally want to make the other person unhappy.
Roland hesitated.
The original letter of severance of engagement clearly stated that neither party was allowed to visit without the other party's consent. Otherwise, if a fight broke out, Huang Dachuan would have ways to deal with them.
"Mom, you are Big Brother's biological mother, can he still drive you away?"
Deng Cuihua continued to instigate. Huang Ming on the side did not say anything, but his eyes showed approval.
Roland thought about it for a while and was very tempted. Finally, he gritted his teeth, stood up and walked towards Huang Bo's house.
Huang Ming followed immediately, and Deng Cuihua also followed with the child.
Today, He Hui Niang, the third child and Huang Mulin were at home, and Huang Bo took the eldest, second and fourth children to sell lunch boxes.
Early in the morning, all the people Huang Dachuan helped to select came to work. Looking around, half of the people in the village were here, working enthusiastically and laughing non-stop.
This was the scene Roland saw when he arrived at Huang Bo's door.
Huang Mulin had sharp eyes. When he was discussing the topic with Huang Xilin, he happened to see Roland leading Huang Ming, Deng Cuihua and the children in.
"Mom." She quickly pulled He Hui Niang's dress.
He Huiniang and Huang Xilin naturally saw it as well.
"Mother." He Hui Niang put down her embroidery and walked forward. "What do you want to do?"
"Is it okay for me to come visit my son?"
Roland didn't give her any good looks at all.
That's really unreasonable.
"Hiroko is not at home."
Go back to where you should go.
Although He Hui Niang never contradicted Roland, she could never stand her partiality for him, especially when Mu Mu was injured. The attitude of her family was a thorn in He Hui Niang's heart.
"What's wrong with not being home? Do you still want to kick me out?"
