Crossing the farm gate, the whole family reunites in the disaster year

Lin was both angry and amused, and pretended to pat him lightly.

"After all, Granny Cui is an elder in the family. Don't make fun of her."

"Hey, I know."

"However," Lin said seriously, "People in this village are used to being frugal. What Granny Cui said makes sense. Now that you've started making money, what are your plans for the future?"

"I didn't plan on that." Erfu looked bewildered. "I just felt it was too heavy, like a bag of copper coins rattling when I turned over in my sleep."

"Is there anything you want to eat or buy?"

Erfu racked his brains but couldn't come up with an answer: "I've never spent money before. Sigh, Auntie, why don't you hold this money for me? I have food and drink, so I don't need money."

The food at Aunt Lin’s house is even better than what’s sold outside, so this bag of money is completely useless.

Lin had a headache.

I almost forgot that these kids were used to doing things for free. I just paid them wages and forgot to teach them how to spend money.

Sanfu came back just in time, and Lin waved and called him into the house.

Ever since Sifu started working at the construction site, Lin started paying him wages. Previously, the wage for a laborer was 50 wen a day, but it increased to 80 wen a day a few days ago.

"What's wrong, Aunt Lin?" Sanfu touched his nose, feeling that the atmosphere was not right.

Lin scooped a basin of water and asked him to wash his arms and face.

"Nothing, just asking how much money you have saved?"

Sanfu had just scooped up some water when he paused and said nervously, "Not much... not much, just a few dozen coins left."

Erfu clicked his tongue, "You spent it all? Well, you actually ate it all by yourself."

"Who said I bought food?" Sanfu said unconvincedly, "The construction site was short of shoes, so I asked Lao Si to bring me two pairs of shoes from the city."

Erfu glanced down and said, "Aren't you still wearing the same shoes as before?"

Lin suddenly asked, "Did you buy it for your master?"

"Hey, I saw that my master's shoes were all broken, so I asked Lao Si to bring me two pairs."

Lin nodded and said, "The boy is teachable and much better than Sanfu."

Seeing Lin's affirmative look towards Erfu, Sanfu fell into thought. However, since he had no master, he soon realized, "I understand. Aunt Lin, what size shoes do you wear? Tomorrow I will ask Lao Si to go to the city to buy me two pairs."

Lin held her forehead and said, "Auntie doesn't need those two pairs of shoes. The main thing is you. You should not only learn how to make money, but also learn how to spend it."

The motivation for making money is to spend money, and the confidence for spending money is to make money.

If you make money just based on the novelty of it, you will soon feel bored and lose the motivation to persist.

Of course, some people’s hobby is saving money, but looking at the way Sanfu spends money, he is not keen on saving money.

Sanfu scratched his head. He really didn't want to buy anything. He just wanted to stop by the stall to buy whatever he wanted...

"How about," he said tentatively, "I'll go for a walk around the city some other day?"

"Don't postpone it to another day. Let's go to the city tomorrow. We are short of meat at home. Please buy me some meat and two pieces of cloth."

"Row."

Sanfu felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of spending money openly tomorrow, but since it was Aunt Lin's request, he had no choice but to do it.

I just wonder if the vendors will be shocked.

It was not until it was completely dark that the Cui family members returned from the fields.

After Old Man Cui learned about planting grape seedlings, he took all the younger generations in his family to plant trees in the fields, adhering to the principle of saving every penny on his own land.

There were also a lot of people coming, and three acres of land had been planted before dark.

"Mom, take a look."

Cui Zhaozhao gave the account book to Lin.
