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

"Grandma, it's almost time, let's go make dinner, Grandpa and the others should be back soon." Sui He looked at the sky and thought that he was only going to deliver some goods today and should be back soon.

"Almost done, look, he's back." Just as he finished speaking, he saw the second grandfather coming back from the intersection with a cart.

"I'll go make dinner." Sui He glanced at her and went back to the kitchen.

"Grandpa Chen, you're home. I'll go back first." After helping push the car into the yard, Zhao Dazhuang wanted to say goodbye.

"Why are you in such a hurry? The meal is ready. Let's eat first before we go." Sui He came out with the meal and just heard Zhao Da Zhuang was about to leave.

"Stay and eat with us. You've helped a lot today." Grandpa also asked to stay

"Thank you, Grandpa Chen, and Brother Chen," Zhao Dazhuang said with an embarrassed look on his face.

Knowing how much Zhao Dazhuang eats, Suihe made a lot of food today. She used soybean milk porridge, which is made with fresh soybean milk and some polished rice bought in the town. It was a thick bowl and very delicious. She also made some multi-grain cakes and a plate of fried sweet potato tips. The portions of each were sufficient.

"Da Zhuang, wait a minute," Zhao Da Zhuang was about to leave after dinner, carrying a bowl of soybean porridge. Sui He walked up to him and called him.

"Brother Chen, I didn't take too much. It was just what was in my bowl. I didn't eat it. I..." Zhao Dazhuang became reserved. He didn't know what was wrong with Suihe Zhao. Would he think it was not good for him to eat and take at the same time? What should he do?

"I'm not talking about the porridge. You can take this bowl of porridge back. I have something to discuss with you." Sui Kan noticed Zhao Dazhuang's nervousness. Just now at the dinner table, she saw that Zhao Dazhuang only ate the bread and didn't eat the porridge. She knew what he was planning.

"I'm planning to invite you to my house to help. As you can see, my grandfather is old and can't do these physical work. I want to invite you to help. I'll give you a meal every day, a full meal, and you can also take some soy milk back home. In addition, I'll give you an extra five copper coins a day as wages. What do you think?"

This is what Sui He had thought about yesterday. Although Zhao Dazhuang is young, he is full of strength. He was able to cross mountains and rivers in one breath to bring his sister back. He was willing to sacrifice a leg for this, which shows that Zhao Dazhuang is a decent person.

Sui He also found out some information in the village. The village chief's family had three children, and they depended on the one-third acre of land to support themselves. Zhao Dazhuang also had a big appetite, which resulted in him often not having enough to eat.

Asking him to help would make her grandfather feel more relaxed. If she gave him a meal, Zhao Dazhuang would be able to eat more. Anyway, her family was not short of food.

"Really?" Zhao Dazhuang stood up excitedly. He thought Brother Chen was dissatisfied with him for eating too much and told him not to come. He didn't expect Suihe to invite him to work.

"Of course it's true." Sui He said seriously, "I wonder if you are willing to come work for me."

"I am willing, I am willing, but," Zhao Dazhuang agreed quickly. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Can I not get paid?"

"Why?" Sui He asked curiously.

"Brother Chen, can you teach me how to make maltose? I don't need to be paid," Zhao Dazhuang said seriously, stating his purpose.

This has been his goal all along. Children in rural areas have to grow up early, and he understood it early on. He eats a lot, his legs and feet are not good, and he cannot do many things. Even if he goes to the town to do hard labor, no one will want him. He is still young and can rely on his family, but what if he grows up?

Hearing that Sui He could make maltose, he wanted to become his apprentice. After learning, he made maltose at home and sold it in the town. As long as someone bought it, he would earn money, which could support himself.

"You want to learn maltose?" So this is his purpose: "Didn't I promise to teach you?"

"My father once said that we shouldn't take other people's things for free, let alone something that can make money, so..." Zhao Dazhuang hesitated.

Sui He smiled and said, "I understand. It's a deal. You come to work for me, I'll give you a meal, and then I'll teach you how to make candy."

"Thank you, Brother Chen," Zhao Dazhuang thanked Sui He excitedly, and then went home with the soy milk.

"Sui Sui, do you want to help that boy?" The second grandmother was sitting on a small stool at the door, sewing something. Judging from the color, it should be the cloth that Sui He bought last time.

"Yes, grandma, the people in this village are suffering so much, I hope to help as much as I can." Sui He took a small stool and sat next to grandma to watch her make things.

Moreover, she will not be satisfied with this in the future. When she earns more money, it will easily attract the envy of others. She has meat to eat, so she should at least let others have some soup.

There is a saying that goes, being rich by yourself is not considered rich, it is only when everyone is rich that it is considered rich.

"You, you are still eating coarse food, and you still have the time to care about others." The second grandmother smiled and nodded Sui He's head: "Look at how thin you are, you should take more care of yourself and have more meat to look better."

"okay"

"Aunt Chen, are you busy?" Sui He was still chatting with her grandmother when she saw the aunts from the morning coming over, followed by a few men with sacks in their hands.

"No hurry, no hurry, you're here, come and sit down." Seeing someone coming, the second grandmother put down the things in her hands and

"You're welcome. I wanted to come here at noon, but I didn't come because I didn't want to disturb you. I hope I didn't disturb you." Aunt Li came into the house and asked her husband to put down the sack in his hand.

"Suihe, come and take a look. Are you satisfied with my soybeans? We picked them out for you at noon."

Sui He grabbed a handful. The soybeans of this era were a little smaller, but they were still plump. After grabbing a few handfuls, he found that there was no messy stuff, and there were no shriveled and bad soybeans. He nodded with satisfaction: "Aunt Li, these soybeans are good. I'll take them."

"It's just that I don't have a scale at home. I..." When Sui He was about to weigh the soybeans, she remembered that she didn't have a scale at home. Last time she sold bean sprouts, she borrowed one from the lady next door. Where could she borrow a scale now?

"I have it, I have it, I brought it here, why are you still standing there, bring the scale here." Aunt Li patted Zhao Daniu who was standing silently beside her.

"Hey, I'll take it." Zhao Daniu has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He smiles naively and looks honest.

"Suihe, don't mind it, your uncle Daniu is a little wooden." Aunt Li took the scale and put it aside.

"It's okay, Aunt Li, let's weigh the soybeans." Sui He looked curiously at the large scale.

The one they used to sell vegetables was smaller and could be used by one person. The one Aunt Li brought was much larger and required two people to carry. It had soybeans hooked at the bottom and a rope tied to it that passed through a wooden stick. Two people carried it.

"Suihe, look, I have fifty kilograms here." Aunt Li and Zhao Daniu weighed the soybeans from his home. Suihe looked at them.

Uh......

Looking at grandpa for help

Grandpa came up and looked, nodded, it was indeed 50 kilograms

"Mr. Li, help me weigh it too." Aunt Wang also stepped forward

After a while, several soybeans were weighed.

"Okay, please remember how many kilograms each family has, and I will pay you." Sui He checked the soybeans that each family brought.

"Aunt Li's family has 100 copper coins. This is one hundred copper coins. Please count them." Sui He calculated very quickly and handed the one hundred copper coins in his hand to Aunt Li.
