So what if you flee from famine? Start all over again and live a good life every day

"What's wrong? If you have something to say, just tell me. There are no outsiders here." Lin Youxiang's voice was very loud, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Seeing so many people looking at her, Zhou Guoer blushed immediately. She lowered her head and dared not speak. She stepped hard on Lin Wangxiang's foot with one foot, hiding it under the hem of her skirt: "Shut up!"

"Hiss!!!" Lin Youxiang was suddenly stepped on by his wife. He was even more confused. He smiled bitterly and said, "How did I offend you?"

However, Zhou Guoer glared at him, lowered her head and stopped talking.

"What's wrong? Guoguo, are you feeling unwell? If you are not feeling well, go back and rest early." Aunt Lin saw Zhou Guoer lowering her head, thinking that Zhou Guoer was not feeling well, so she wanted Zhou Guoer to go back early. After all, Zhou Guoer is not alone now.

"Mom, I'm fine." Zhou Guoer raised her head and looked at her mother-in-law, then looked at Sui He carefully. She wanted to say something but didn't say a word.

"Sister-in-law, do you have something to say to me?" Sui He could see that this person had something to say to her, but maybe because he was not familiar with Sui He yet, he was too embarrassed to speak.

"It's not a big deal." Seeing Sui He speak, Zhou Guoer took a deep breath and then spoke: "That's right, my mother's family also has a bamboo forest, and there are a lot of bamboo shoots. I just want to ask if the bamboo shoots there can be harvested."

"So that's what happened. I thought it was something else. Just tell me." Lin Youxiang was still as carefree as ever. He turned around and asked Sui He, "Sui He, do you want some bamboo shoots from my eldest brother-in-law's house? If you do, I'll ask my eldest brother-in-law to send them to you tomorrow."

"Yes, I'll take whatever you have. Sister-in-law, please ask your parents to send it over tomorrow." Sui He looked at Lin Youxiang, the straight man, speechlessly, and nodded to He Zhou Guoer: "If you can't send it over in time, you can also make it into dried bamboo shoots. I will also buy dried bamboo shoots. One pound of dried bamboo shoots is 25 copper coins."

"So much?" Zhou Guoer's eyes widened when she heard that the dried bamboo shoots cost 25 copper coins.

"Ten kilograms of fresh bamboo shoots can only produce about one kilogram of dried bamboo shoots. The consumption is too high, so dried bamboo shoots are more expensive than fresh bamboo shoots." After the bamboo shoots are dried in the sun, the shells and moisture are removed. Ten kilograms of fresh bamboo shoots can only produce one kilogram of dried bamboo shoots. This consumption ratio is really too high.

But a pound of dried bamboo shoots is not a small amount. Usually, a few pieces of bamboo shoots, after being soaked and fully absorbed, are enough for a meal.

"Okay, I'll go back and tell them tomorrow." Zhou Guoer was obviously happy after getting the answer. There were too many brothers in the family, and only the eldest brother had married. The second and third brothers were still unmarried.

There is such a large bamboo forest on the back mountain, and there are many bamboo shoots. There are people to collect them. She must think about her brothers from her mother's side and tell them the good news. When the family makes money, the second brother and the third brother can bring her two sisters-in-law home earlier.

"So happy?" Seeing his wife's mood suddenly improve, Lin Youxiang couldn't help but move closer to her and stare at her seriously.

Unexpectedly seeing the big face in front of her, Zhou Guoer's face, which had finally calmed down, turned red again. She stammered and couldn't speak, her eyes wandering around.

"Stop teasing your wife and get back to work!" Aunt Lin couldn't stand it anymore and slapped her eldest son to rescue her daughter-in-law.

Seeing this, Suihe said that dog food is not delicious at all

With the help of the Lin family, Sui He quickly processed the dried bamboo shoots that needed to be dried. In order to prevent them from getting stale, he quickly cooked them tonight.

Soak it in clean water and dry it in the sun the next day.

The next morning, fresh bamboo shoots were loaded onto a bullock cart and headed for the town. I had discussed this with Shopkeeper Li yesterday and said everything I needed to say, so Sui He did not go with them today.

On that day, Tongren Restaurant launched new dishes, bamboo shoot chicken, braised bamboo shoots

Because Tongren Restaurant often launches new dishes, the people in the town are very receptive to them and are happy to try the restaurant's new dishes. For a while, the bamboo shoots in the restaurant were in short supply.

Seeing that his restaurant's business was getting better, Manager Li immediately wrote a letter and left the city with a few baskets of bamboo shoots to go to a more distant place.

"Suihe, these are today's bamboo shoots, take a look." Aunt Li came over with a basket of bamboo shoots on her back.

"I'm here, Aunt Li." Sui He put down what he was holding and weighed Aunt Li's bamboo shoots with a scale: "Aunt Li, we've got a lot today."

"No, there are so many people picking bamboo shoots recently, and the bamboo shoots in the forest behind have been almost picked. I went to the next village to pick them." Aunt Li wiped her sweat and sat on a stool to fan herself. She ran over several hills and was exhausted. "The people in our village are so quick, we can't beat them, we can't beat them at all."

"Thank you for your hard work, but will the people in the next village ask you to pick them?" After Sui He weighed the bamboo shoots, he dumped them aside and handed the money to Aunt Li: "Here is the money for the bamboo shoots, Aunt Li, please count it."

"Oh, okay, why not? They don't like to eat this." Aunt Li took the copper coins immediately and looked at them one by one: "I have picked so many bamboo shoots in the past two days. I am really exhausted."

"Yes, you've worked hard. Buy yourself some delicious food to reward yourself," Sui He replied with a smile.

"What reward? Farmers all have to go through life like this. We should keep these copper coins carefully. If something happens in the future, we can always come up with silver." Aunt Li put the copper coins in her pocket, said hello to Sui He, and went home with her basket.

"Slow down," Sui He responded, and walked to the pile of bamboo shoots, frowning.

According to Aunt Li, there should be many people picking bamboo shoots in our village, but why didn't many families send bamboo shoots here today? Could it be that they haven't come back yet?

"Sister Chen, something happened." Sui He was sorting the bamboo shoots on the ground when Shi Tou suddenly ran in from outside, shouting as he ran.

"What's going on, Shitou? What happened?" Hearing Shitou's voice, Sui He stood up immediately.

"I saw someone harvesting bamboo shoots at the entrance of the village, trying to steal your business." Shitou ran out of breath, "Come with me to take a look."

"Shitou, don't worry, I'll go with you to have a look." Hearing this, Sui He was also a little confused. Could it be that someone has already developed a method to remove the bitterness of bamboo shoots? In any case, let's go with Shitou to have a look.

"I'll take you there, follow me." Shitou led the way, looking back from time to time, signaling Suihe to follow.

Sui He didn't delay, put down what he was holding and followed.

Before we even got close to the village entrance, we saw a group of people gathered together. Some of them were carrying baskets full of fresh bamboo shoots.

"I am Huang Cuihua, are you serious? Does the HSBC Restaurant really charge three cents per pound?" The lady pulled Huang Cuihua's sleeve to confirm.

Huang Cuihua pulled her sleeves in disdain: "I've already told you, three cents, three cents, why would I lie to you, I went to ask in person, and the shopkeeper of HSBC Building told me in person."

"Hurry up, sell it quickly, or you'll miss it later." Huang Cuihua stood next to an empty cart, waving a purse in front of everyone, smiling triumphantly.

"See? The coins are all here. Pay with one hand and get the goods with the other."
