In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

"These days, in half a month, I have already spent two taels of silver."

"These girls always ask for fresh goat milk. They refuse to drink stale goat milk. They drink nearly one or two ounces of silver worth of goat milk every half a month. They also need a lot of soft cotton cloth to make diapers for them."

"This eldest girl, Bai Yiyue, was sick again. She went to the town doctor again and was prescribed a medicine for children. I drank it and fed it to Yiyue through breast milk."

"And the other children caught colds at night and also had some minor illnesses. I had to take medicine and breastfeed them, and two taels of silver was not enough to stop them."

"Besides, I'm in confinement. Don't I need to eat something to replenish my body? I bought 200 eggs and seven chickens in town. Now I've eaten dozens of eggs in half a month. I've eaten all seven chickens. This must have cost a lot of money."

"If you don't stop at two taels of silver for half a month, you must spend about five taels of silver a month."

"And this house needs to be repaired later! If we don't repair the fence, what will we do if the children grow up and sneak out and get beaten up by bad guys?!"

"Repairing the house and the fence will cost another five taels of silver, so these ten taels of silver are basically nothing."

Bai Lu said with a smile: "We are a family, why don't you lend me some money first."

"Although I have some spare money now, it is too difficult to support these seven children..."

"Lend me ten taels of silver first, eight taels of silver, and I'll lend you some when I have money. What do you think?"

"???"

What? !

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Zhang was dumbfounded: "In just half a month, you and these seven money-losing guys actually ate up so much money, how did you do it?!"

"There are so many of these seven money-losing bastards. It wouldn't matter if one or two died. Why waste money on medicine?!"

As she said this, she slapped her thigh with some pain and became furious.

This money is for her son to marry!

Why is Mr. Bai wasting money!

Then, the village head's wife glared at him. She snorted coldly and said, "What do you mean by losing money or not? Aren't you ashamed to say that?!"

"Didn't you say before that you and Bai Lu are a family? If you are a family, why do you say this about your granddaughter?!"

"Hurry up and save up some money and lend it to Bai Lu. Otherwise, what will Bai Lu do if she can't afford to support the seven of them?!"

"..."

"I don't have any money!"

Zhang immediately shook her head like a rattle and said quickly, "Well, then... I'll leave first today. I remembered that there is still food in the pot and I forgot to check the fire. I have to go back and turn off the fire."

As she spoke, she hurriedly said, "Two dogs, three dogs, four dogs, follow me quickly."

Zhang took the three brothers of the Bai family and left in disgrace.

Bah! Bai Lu, this wild girl, actually asked me to borrow money!

Wait until the seven money-losing creatures grow up a little bit, then pick out the ones that are still alive and sell them to them!

Look how fat they are. They can be sold when they are one month old!

Seeing the four of them leave, Bai Lu snorted coldly. They still wanted to deduct some money from her?

This family is really shameless.

I didn't expect that she no longer lived here and had moved out of the most dilapidated house in the village...but they still coveted it so much!

I really don’t know what it would be like if the money I earned from business was exposed!

It seems that I have the ability to move away from here and not live in the village.

Before you have enough money to buy a house in town, you can't reveal how much spare money you have.

The village chief's wife said to Bai Lu with great satisfaction: "You are much better now than before."

"what?"

Bai Lu had a confused look on her face. The village head's wife knew from looking at her that she probably didn't understand what she said.

The village chief's wife sighed. Bai Lu used to be extremely cowardly, but now that she has given birth to seven children, she has become more energetic.

But it is also possible... She has not realized what blood is, so she may not have much money.

Although Bai Lu's previous statement that she spent so much money was a bit exaggerated, in fact, she did spend a lot of money. Just those soft cotton fabrics cost a lot of money.

The village chief's wife is a connoisseur of good things.

She sighed and said, "After that, if there is any work, I will introduce it to you after you finish your confinement."

Bai Lu nodded, "Okay, okay, thank you very much."

......

Half a month passed quickly, and Bai Lu's supply of goat milk to Mingyue Tower was very stable, 1500 kilograms per day.

In the past half month, she earned exactly 115 taels of silver in Mingyue Tower, neither more nor less.

Add to that the previous savings of 142 taels and 15 wen, the total is 257 taels and 15 wen.

During this period, Bai Lu went to the town every three days.

She did become familiar with a few people.

For example, Madam Luo who sells goat milk, Liu Er, and Gu Liang, I became a little familiar with them.

Even Bai Lu has a good relationship with Luo Niangzi——

Knowing that Mrs. Luo would be beaten by her husband if she couldn't sell all the goat's milk, Bai Lu would pack up the leftover goat's milk when she went to the town.

Mrs. Luo is honest in her work, so the goat milk is very fresh and is very delicious when boiled for the babies to drink.

Ever since Bai Lu had money, she wanted to buy a house in the town. That way, she would not be harassed by her parents' family or her in-laws' family.

Mrs. Luo persuaded Bai Lu to give up. She said to Bai Lu, "If you buy a house in the town, it's quite cheap. You can buy one for about 50 taels."

"There are bedrooms, kitchens, and main halls."

"It's not big, but it should be enough for you, a woman with seven children."

"But the key is, if you have 50 taels of silver and hold it in your own hands, it will give you more peace of mind than a house!"

“…If you want to buy a house, you might as well wait until your child is about a year old and then move to town when he’s older.

If he could move next to our house, we could take care of each other, which would be great."

Bai Lu nodded and said with a smile: "Got it."

It is better to keep the money in your own hands afterwards, as business requires capital.

It would be better to save more money, a few hundred taels of silver, and buy a big house.

After all, there are seven girls. When they grow up, they will need seven rooms, a kitchen, a study, and their own bedroom... Oh, it's so troublesome to calculate.

After a month, the children were one month old and she could officially leave the confinement period. She then thought about doing something else to make a living so that she could earn more money.

The net profit from selling goat milk is more than 200 taels of silver a month, which is a considerable profit, at least for the people in the village it is a sky-high profit.

But if she wanted to move out quickly with her children, she needed money.

have a house.

And we must also provide children with basic living security.

In addition, Bai Lu also knew that Mingyue Tower had relied on the goat milk business in the past month to temporarily restore the precarious economy of the building, but it could not always rely on goat milk.

After a month of supplying 1500 kilograms of goat's milk, the supply is now even saturated. I estimate that in a month or two, there will not be a need for so much goat's milk.

Then see if other companies will cooperate, or think about selling something else?

......

On this day, Bai Lu stayed in the town for a while on purpose and asked Mrs. Luo about something.

Mrs. Luo said with a smile: "Of course there are many businesses to do. Recently there is a very profitable one, but it is beyond the reach of ordinary people like us..."
