Travel to the famine year to go to the sea, and become rich with the zombie girlfriend
Chapter 23 Peach Blossom Sister
Xia Qingqing would not care about such a person, so she confronted him directly, and everyone burst into laughter.
Seeing that no one spoke, she continued, "During this disaster year, I, Xia Qingqing, will sell the seafood I have collected to everyone at a clearly marked price. If you need it, bring some money to my courtyard to buy it."
"what?"
Many people became jealous again. Big Loud Yingzi complained, "You know, during the disaster years, giving each family a little bit seems kind..."
Lai Hongxia hid in the crowd and laughed secretly, and gave Yingzi a look of praise.
"Yingzi, how can you say that?" Xia Wude stood up and accused her, "It's so dangerous to go fishing at sea nowadays. We should sell it to everyone."
"Captain Xia, I don't like what you say," Yingzi said, her hands on her hips. "Your family member Tiezhu used to fish for everyone..."
"Can that time be compared with now?" Xia Wude was speechless. There was no snow disaster at that time.
"Why can't they be compared? We're all from the same village, so why can't we make some contributions to the village?" Mrs. Ying from the grocery store insisted. "If the Huo family wants to gain a foothold in the village, they should at least show some appreciation, right? A few days ago, they didn't even offer to share the wild boar with everyone..."
"Why didn't they get any?" Xia Tiezhu asked angrily, "The families who helped carry the wild boar all got some pork..."
"I have no opinion."
Xia Qingqing's voice was neither loud nor soft, but loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.
This Ying Po and Xia Huzi and his wife are from the same family.
One is greedy for money and the other is lustful.
"Qingqing, you are silly! Do we have to share so many things with everyone? Going out to sea now is a life-threatening thing!" Bai Erniang felt a little unfair and was afraid that Xia Qingqing would do something stupid.
"Second Mother, I tell you, a widow, not to get involved in this kind of thing!" Mrs. Ying snorted coldly and turned around and said, "You are still sensible..."
Before she could finish her words or let out a smile, Xia Qingqing said, "Aunt Yingzi's grocery store is also part of the village. Now that it's a disaster year and everyone is having a hard time, why not share it with everyone?"
"You're dreaming! Those are my things." Mrs. Ying pointed at Xia Qingqing and cursed, "Why should I give them things? Do you think I'm an idiot?"
As soon as she said this, Xia Qingqing burst out laughing. She spoke slowly, "Yeah, who do you think you are? Why are you dividing my things?"
Mrs. Ying was speechless. Feeling the strange looks from the people around her, she fled from the spot as if she was running for her life.
"Brother, come and help me carry these seafood back home!"
When Huo An, Huo Yihan and others approached, they all showed shocked expressions on their faces.
When everyone went to help carry the seafood, Xia Qingqing approached Huo Yihan and asked, "What are you doing on that boat with an axe?"
Huo Yihan hid the axe in his hand behind his back and stammered, "Nothing..."
Sometimes he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.
Seeing Huo Yihan leave with a frown, Xia Qingqing spread her hands, confused.
The courtyard became bustling with activity as the Huo family began to collect seafood, carefully categorizing each type so they could sell it to the villagers at a better price.
It's a disaster year now, so food must be expensive.
But Xia Qingqing was not the kind of person who would raise prices arbitrarily. Small yellow croaker, small mantis shrimp, and conch were all priced at ten cents per pound.
The others range from fifteen, twenty, to thirty cents.
Huo An went to Xia Lichang's house to borrow a scale and started working as a peddler. Xu Xiuxiu and Ding Shi helped him and they were very busy.
"Second Mother, these are for you." Xia Qingqing took out a small net bag, which contained a sea bass weighing about three pounds, a dozen small yellow croakers and shrimps, and two large crabs.
Bai Erniang was about to burst into tears when she saw all this. She said, "This is a bit too much..."
Xia Qingqing said, "Child, eat less crabs and more fish and shrimp. Take it."
"Qingqing is so generous to you, Second Mother." Many women in the village stole envious glances at her, imagining how nice it would be if the seafood in the net bag was given to them.
Bai Erniang was full of gratitude to Xia Qingqing. This was the first time she stood up straight in front of the villagers since her husband passed away.
She hadn't seen the villagers' envious eyes for many years.
"Qingqing."
A weak voice was heard, and Xia Qingqing leaned over to look for it.
I saw a woman wearing a tattered headscarf walking over, with her hands tucked into her sleeves, her back bent, and a basket slung over her arm.
"Isn't this peach blossom? The peach blossoms are here too?" someone in the village said. Xia Qingqing took a closer look and finally saw the appearance of the peach blossoms.
She quickly stepped forward and said, "Sister Taohua, I'm here."
Sister Taohua, another poor woman in the village.
She is about thirty years old this year. Many years ago, she fled famine and came to Dayu Village and married Xia Changgui, a villager.
During the escape from famine, all the family members died. Many years later, her parents-in-law also died one after another, and her husband also died.
The most pitiful thing is that the eldest son also died.
Now they only have a five-year-old son to depend on.
Maybe it was because he suffered such a huge mental blow that he rarely went out.
Although he is only in his thirties, he looks as old as if he is in his fifties or sixties.
"Qingqing, can I buy on credit?" Taohua's lips trembled slightly. She carefully raised her chilblained hands and pulled her headscarf to cover her cheeks.
"Buy on credit, hahaha..."
Hearing someone's mocking voice, Xia Qingqing immediately said, "Of course."
She turned to the crowd and said, "If you don't have money at home, you can buy on credit with my permission. I will collect the debt after the snowstorm is over."
"Really? That would be great."
"This... is really great..."
The villagers all shouted "good". Taohua lowered her head and a tear shrank from her eyes. The tear fell into the snow and disappeared.
This was within Xia Qingqing's expectations, as she originally wanted the villagers to buy on credit.
After all, the villagers don’t have much money, and they can’t earn any now, so they will spend it all sooner or later.
After the snowstorm, Xia Qingqing needed to build a new house and continue fishing and hiring people.
With the IOU, there will be manpower, and the money will come in continuously.
"I want credit, too."
As soon as Sister Taohua left, Lai Pozi walked up to Xia Qingqing and said as a matter of course.
Xia Qingqing glanced at Lai Hongxia calmly and refused on the spot, "Your credit is questionable. I can't give you credit."
What are you dreaming about?
As soon as she finished speaking, the villagers around her laughed softly, the sound gradually grew louder, and Lai Hongxia's face gradually turned red.
Although she was angry in her heart, she did not dare to get angry when she thought of Xia Qingqing's ruthless methods.
"Xia Qingqing, my parents are starving. Please bring me some food and I will go cook for them..." Xia Mu's voice was no longer domineering, but became a little cautious.
boom!
Before Xia Qingqing could say anything, she saw a figure suddenly flash past, and then she saw Xia Mu's body flying into the air and falling to the ground with a bang.
"Brother-in-law, why did you hit me?" Xia Mu was almost in pain. "I didn't hit the girl, it was my mother who beat her. It has nothing to do with me..."
