Everyone in the Xie family had no objection and thought the same as Old Man Xie. Now the Xie family's life was much better than before.

Not only does he earn money from setting up the stall, but he also earns money from picking mushrooms. If his own food is not enough, he can buy some sweet potatoes or coarse grains to barely make it until the autumn harvest.

Besides, everyone knew that the Lin family needed a lot of potatoes now. Instead of spending money to buy them from the villagers, it would be better for them to send their own potatoes.

It can also save the Lin family some money, and they can hold on until the autumn harvest if they tighten their belts.

"Grandpa, no need. Please don't send over the leftovers. This time, we've planted potatoes on almost all the sandy land we bought, and we've had quite a harvest."

Lin Yunchu tried his best to persuade them, but he didn't want the Xie family to send their remaining potatoes over. The reason he asked the Xie family to free up some land to grow potatoes was to ensure that they had enough food.

Now we are sending the harvested potatoes to them, which would be a waste.

Moreover, many families in Qingxi Village grow potatoes. If they need them, they can just pay the money and go to the village to buy them.

Lin Yunchu turned his back and whispered a few words to Lin's mother.

When Lin's mother heard this, she nodded and turned to go into the house. When she came out, she was holding a purse in her hand. Inside was some small change she had just packed, about two taels of silver.

He walked up to Old Man Xie and handed it to him.

Old Man Xie looked at the purse handed over by Mother Lin, his eyes widened, his face flushed and he pointed at her and started yelling:

"What are you doing? Your second brother and I brought these potatoes to you for your emergency use, not to sell them for silver."

Old man Xie didn't think about accepting the money from Lin's mother. They had specially delivered it to him, and it would be embarrassing to accept the money.

"Grandpa, this is not the money from selling potatoes. It is a gift from my mother to you."

Lin Yunchu quickly stepped forward with a smile and said softly, "Please accept it."

Lin Yunchu made up an excuse and persuaded Old Man Xie to accept the silver, and the Xie family took the potatoes over.

The Xie family’s food supply will definitely not last until the autumn harvest, and this money can just be used to buy some food.

"No, I can't accept it."

This time, Old Man Xie didn't listen to Lin Yunchu. He had a gloomy face and refused to accept it no matter what.

Seeing that Old Man Xie was determined, Mother Lin turned around and handed it to her second brother Xie Youhe.

Xie Youhe, like Old Man Xie, was determined not to accept it and kept shaking his head.

These were potatoes they had specially sent to the Lin family. They were all family, so it was unreasonable to collect the money, especially since it was Lin Yunchu's help.

Nowadays, the Xie family lives a much better life than before. Occasionally, they can even buy some meat to improve their meals, which was unimaginable in the past.

Even if they send some potatoes over now, you absolutely cannot accept this silver.

Seeing Lin's mother turned around, Xie Ping and Xie An who were standing beside her also took a step back. Their grandfather and uncle had not confiscated it, so how dare they!

Seeing the looks of the few people, Lin Yunchu winked at Lin's mother and asked her to put the silver away first.

It's not a good look to be in such a stalemate. Let's wait and see. There's no need to rush.

When he saw Lin's mother put the silver away, Old Man Xie's expression looked better.

For fear that Old Man Xie would get angry again, Lin's mother and Lin Yunchu did not dare to mention the matter of giving money again. They sat and chatted with the two of them for a while.

Old man Xie stood up and walked around the workshop nearby. Xie Youhe hurried forward and followed happily. Ever since he learned that the Lin family had opened a workshop, he had been thinking about coming over to take a look.

I have just got this opportunity now, so I have to take a closer look. When I go back later, I can tell Li and my elder brother and sister-in-law about it and make them happy too.

Seeing that the Lin family was living a good life, they felt relieved. Moreover, the Lin family was helping them so much now, so they naturally hoped that their younger sister's family would live a better life.

Old man Xie watched, although he didn't understand, but he saw that the workshop had hired people and they were all busy, and the yard was full of vermicelli drying in the sun.

After a closer look, he found that this vermicelli was familiar. When Lin Yunchu tried to make it for the first time, he sent some to the Xie family for them to try.

I didn’t expect that there are workshops now. That’s great!

Lin Yunchu looked at the old man Xie in front of him looking around with a look of satisfaction on his face, and followed him and introduced them to him one by one.

Old man Xie listened carefully. Although he didn't quite understand what was said, he felt happy when he heard Lin Yunchu say this.

Moreover, these potato noodles have already been introduced into new dishes at Yipintang. If they are well made in the future, I am afraid they can be sold to Kyoto.

Old man Xie looked at the vermicelli drying in the yard with a smile on his face. The more he looked, the happier he became. His face was full of joy, and he had long forgotten that he was angry about the money just now.

After wandering around the workshop for a while, Old Man Xie saw that it was getting late, so he suggested to Mother Lin that they go back to Xie's house first. He and Xie Youhe came here on foot.

But it's not like taking an ox cart, which takes a long time to walk, and it might be difficult to go any later.

"Dad, don't be anxious. It's not easy for us to come here. You and my second brother can sit for a while. Changting will be back soon. We can ask him to take you there in the ox cart later."

Seeing Old Man Xie getting up and about to go back to Xie Village, Mother Lin quickly persuaded him, "The oxcart is very fast. There's no need to rush."

The four of them had just hurried along carrying such heavy things. How could we let them walk back again? They would be exhausted by the time they got home.

Mother Lin asked Lin Yunchu to chat with them for a while, and she hurried into the house, thinking of packing some things for them to take back together.

Since Old Man Xie refused to accept the money, he decided to pack up some food for them to take back so that they can use it in an emergency.

After a while, Lin's mother packed a lot of things, including peanuts, soybeans, cornmeal, dried vegetables, and dried bamboo shoots that had been dried before.

I made clothes for Lin Yunchu a while ago and had a piece of material left over. I thought it should be enough to make a summer dress for Xie Chunjiao, so I took it with me.

The Xie family now makes buns and sells them at a stall every day, so they should not be short of pork at home, so they don’t take pork.

Lin's mother walked around the house, then went to the backyard, caught a chicken, tied its legs and put it in a bamboo cage, and put it together with the things she had just packed, intending to take it back to them later.

Lin's mother had just packed up her things and came out when she happened to meet Lin Changting coming back. She told him about sending Old Man Xie and the others back.

Lin Changting nodded, and without taking any time to rest, he hurried to the backyard to harness the cart. Lin's mother called Xie Ping and Xie An over, and loaded the things she had just packed onto the ox cart.
