Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

Yang Kui looked at the young man in tattered beggar clothes and knew that most of what he said was true. However, his daughter had already taken in a half-grown boy, and there were seven other girls to support at home. Although life was better now, he could not take in so many people.

"It's not that we don't want to take you in, it's that we can only make a living."

Wu Junfan saw that the person who spoke was the elder among the group, and knew that if he wanted to follow this group out of the city, he had to get the old man's consent first. He knelt down beside Yang Kui and kowtowed.

"Master, please, please have mercy on me and save me. I have a family, but... I've been separated from my parents. Please take me in for a while. When I find them, they will definitely thank you very much!"

Yang Kui appears rough on the outside but is kind and gentle on the inside. The original owner was bullied like this in the Zhao family because his temperament was probably like his father's.

"Hurry up and get up! Why are you kneeling before me?" Yang Kui jumped out of the car and helped the boy up. "There's no master here. I'm just a blacksmith. Your parents would be so heartbroken if they knew you were kneeling before someone just because you stutter."

Regardless of their wealth or status, children are the apple of their parents' eyes. Yang Kui gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"Get in the car, come with me."

If my daughter doesn't want this boy, then I will take him away. The family can save some money on a bowl of rice and still be able to support one more person. If he can't find his parents, then I will teach him my blacksmithing skills.

"Thank you! Thank you! I will definitely work hard to repay you."

Wu Junfan jumped onto the ox cart and sat behind the fourth brother.

Shi Liu patted the cow's butt, and the ox cart rumbled towards the city gate.

……

As soon as the ox cart entered the village, it was seen by Tian Guilan and Hongmei who were sitting under an old locust tree and chatting about gossip. They did not go to help Xiuying build the house and had nothing to do, so they just chatted about some irrelevant topics under the old locust tree. Just when they were worried about having no gossip, they saw the ragged boy on the ox cart.

"Hey, look, you picked up another beggar. Xiuying's mind has been abnormal since she left the family. She can't even eat enough, and she still brings a beggar kid home."

Several women who were picking milk apples were also on Xiuying's exchange list. If it weren't for Xiuying, how could her family have stored hundreds of kilograms of black flour? When Xiuying built her house, her husbands helped her, and when she had nothing to do, she would mend shoe soles under the old locust tree. If she heard someone say something bad about Xiuying, she would naturally help speak up, otherwise it would be unfair to the hundreds of kilograms of black flour stored at home.

"Xiuying is in need of labor right now. Awang, who we brought home a few days ago, is very hardworking. He feeds the chickens and ducks and helps with farm work."

As he said this, he glanced at the ragged young man sitting on the ox cart. Although the young man's face was covered with dirt, one could see that he had a rough body.

"This young man looks quite strong and should be good at farm work."

"Yeah, it's not a problem for Xiuying's family to support one more person now, so you two don't have to worry about it."

"Xiuying's family is doing well now, so it's no big deal to support one more person. Besides, this young man doesn't seem like a freeloader."

Tian Guilan was so angry at the group of women beside her that she was out of breath. She couldn't stand Xiuying living better than herself.

I am the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhao family, with a son and a husband. Yang Xiuying is just a widow whose husband has died, and she has seven little girls to support. Why should she live better than me?!

When she was in the Zhao family, she was just making a living under his nose and living according to his mood.

She spat and cursed, “What’s there to be proud of about having enough food to eat? She just ate more recently, how can she compare with my Zhao family.

You see, she's so proud of building a house. A few days ago, she even asked her mother-in-law to lend her money to build a house.

To tell you the truth, she can't even pay you for your labor. She just tricked you all into working for her for free. She said it was twenty cents a day, but you should know that the labor in the capital city only pays twenty cents a day.

She's just talking big but her balls are shiny, and you'll know when she can't come up with the money."

After hearing Tian Guilan's words, the ladies stood up and left without looking back.

Tian Guilan put her hands on her hips and yelled, "Do you know? A few days ago, her family wanted to borrow money from my Zhao family to build a house. Not only is she poor, but her family is just as poor!

You’ll know after a while!”

Hongmei looked at the group of women leaving and sneered, "You are all a bunch of fools with no sense of judgment. You will know when the house Xiuying built is taken away by you guys."

Talking about harvesting Xiuying's property, Tian Guilan suddenly slapped her thigh

"Oh no! This little bitch took in two beggars, boys at that. Could it be that she wants to adopt them as her own sons? How can I eat her extinct family then?"

Tian Guilan was panicked at this moment. She felt that Yang Xiuying was up to no good and was waiting for her here. Since she couldn't give birth to a son, she picked up some beggars as her sons.

Hongmei couldn't quite keep up with Tian Guilan's pace: "Didn't they say they wanted Guangzong to be their son-in-law? Why did they adopt a beggar as their son?"

Tian Guilan gritted her teeth and said, "So this woman is vicious. She would rather give her family property to these beggars than to her nephew. How can there be such a vicious person in this world!"

No, she couldn't let Yang Xiuying's plan succeed.

Tian Guilan had to go home and tell her mother-in-law the news, because only her mother-in-law could control that little bitch.

……

Those who stayed home to make preserved eggs spent the entire morning worrying: Will anyone buy their preserved eggs? Will people eat something made of mud?

"Mother, will anyone buy our dumplings? Grandfather and the others haven't come back yet. Will they be hard to sell?"

The third child looked at the path home with worry. What if he couldn't sell them? He had hundreds of preserved eggs at home.

"No, don't worry. Today is the first day, so it's normal to be slow. It takes time for everyone to accept new things."

Xiuying looked at the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop. The mall was having a promotion these days, with a 20% discount, so she could buy more.

Chen Zexi picked up the eggs laid by the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop, put them in a bamboo basket, and brought them into the house. From the time he started wrapping the eggs, the chickens and ducks laid eggs even harder. There were a total of 150 chickens and ducks in the chicken coop, and one day he managed to pick up 230 eggs.

I didn't expect that the chickens and ducks in Aunt Xiuying's family were so sensible. I have to be more sensible too and not let these chickens and ducks outdo me. I will go to the fields to weed and fertilize later.

Guihua was unsure, "Mother, are we still going to make preserved eggs today?"

If it’s not selling well, should we make less, or wait until it’s almost sold out before making more?
