Quick Wear Dream Qiqi

Chapter 79 Farm Cousins ​​9

Little Liu naturally noticed the gazes of Li and Liu, but she would not say that it was because of her daughter's suggestion that she only sold the high-quality dried mushrooms.

She did not take the slightly damaged dried mushrooms to the town to sell, but instead stored them in her room.

There is no need to confiscate these dried mushrooms. They don't know that she still has them.

As for Meng Shanzhu, he naturally wouldn't tell anyone about it, and his daughter and son would certainly not care about such matters.

Little Liu hummed an unknown folk song and walked out of the main hall in a good mood. She still had four taels of silver in her hand. She thought that the twelve taels of silver she had planned would be taken away and confiscated by her mother-in-law, Wang.

As soon as Meng Qiqi came out of the room, she saw that her mother was in a good mood.

Xiao Liu took Meng Qiqi to the kitchen and started preparing to light a fire and cook lunch.

"Mom, you just came out from grandma's? Why are you so happy?" Meng Qiqi asked curiously.

Little Liu looked at her daughter with a smile and lowered her voice, saying, "Besides the silver we didn't give to your grandmother, we also kept some dried mushrooms. And your grandmother didn't confiscate all the silver we confiscated this time. She only confiscated eight taels of silver."

Meng Qiqi's eyes lit up and she praised, "Mom is really smart! Then we can use these dried mushrooms to make something delicious!"

The mother and daughter were busy in the kitchen, chatting.

Soon, the aroma of food filled the entire kitchen.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the door. It turned out that Meng Qiqi's father Meng Shanzhu had returned.

Wang Shi, who was in the courtyard, saw her youngest son coming back at this time. She asked in confusion, "Third son, why are you back at this time?"

"Mom, my short-term job of more than a few months just ends today. Liangbao's apprenticeship will be almost over in two days. Besides, the autumn harvest is coming soon. Isn't this just perfect?" Meng Shanzhu drew water from the well into a wooden basin, washed his hands first and then washed the dust off his face, responding to Wang's questions.

Wang stood aside and thought about it carefully. In a few days, the old man, the eldest son and the second son would almost finish their temporary jobs in the town.

Originally, she had been looking at the crops in the fields these days and they were almost ripe, so it was time to harvest them.

At this time, Xiao Liu came out of the kitchen and called out, "Mother-in-law, Shanzhu is ready to eat."

As for the people from Li and Liu's two families, they would come over on their own without her calling them.

Meng Shanzhu came to the main hall and sat in his seat. He just politely called Li and Liu opposite him "eldest sister-in-law" and "second sister-in-law".

During this lunch, both Li and Liu ate absentmindedly.

After lunch, Meng Qiqi cleared the dishes on the table and returned to her room, not planning to go out anymore.

Just now when she was eating, she noticed Meng Youyou's eyes were always on her, and she didn't know what Meng Youyou was planning.

When Meng Shanzhu was at home, he would go to the back mountain to hunt wild game from time to time. In addition to giving it to Old Man Meng and Mrs. Wang, he would also provide a snack for his own family.

Of course, the people in the other two rooms don’t know about these things.

A few days later, just as Wang had expected, the other men in the Meng family also finished their short-term jobs in the town.

Except for Old Man Meng, everyone else went to the main hall to hand over the money they had earned in the past few months to Wang.

The two half-grown children, Meng Liangbao and Meng Laibao, did not have much money, so Wang only symbolically took two-thirds of the money from them, three taels of silver for each person.

As for the silver earned by the three brothers in the past few months, Meng Dazhu earned fifteen taels of silver, Meng Erzhu earned fourteen taels of silver, and Meng Shanzhu earned fourteen taels of silver.

So Wang took ten taels of silver from each of them and asked them to keep the rest of the silver themselves.

After Meng Shanzhu returned to his room, he gave the remaining four taels of silver and the five taels of silver he had hidden to Xiao Liu for safekeeping.

At this time, Xiao Liu also said to Meng Shanzhu, "Shanzhu, Qiqi and I have earned 25 taels of silver from picking dried mushrooms these past few months!"

When Meng Shanzhu heard what Xiao Liu said, he naturally showed a surprised expression.

"Why are there so many?" Meng Shanzhu asked in confusion.

Little Liu didn't keep the secret and explained to Meng Shanzhu in detail, "It's all thanks to Qiqi's suggestion. Our dried mushrooms are of high quality. Soon after we arrived in town, they were bought up by the wealthy families in town."

"Besides, I only took out twelve taels of silver on the surface. Even with this, the eldest and second sisters-in-law can't compare to me, so what if their weight is heavier than mine."

"Mother didn't take all of the twelve taels of silver that were handed over. She only accepted eight taels of silver as a symbolic gift."

"The more important thing is that Qiqi and I found a twenty-year-old wild ginseng on the back mountain and sold it for eighty-eight taels of silver!" When she said the last sentence, Xiao Liu looked very proud and told Meng Shanzhu about it.

When Meng Shanzhu heard that he still had wild ginseng to sell and could earn 88 taels of silver, he was so happy.

When Xiao Liu saw Meng Shanzhu's silly look after he knew about it, she teased him, "Well, don't let it slip."

"Of course!" Meng Shanzhu responded to Xiao Liu's instructions.

Meng Qiqi didn't know what was happening between Xiao Liu and Meng Shanzhu.

At this moment, she was looking for food in the space.

With a peach in my mouth, I am in the garden in the space, enjoying the birdsong and the fragrance of flowers in the garden.

Although, on the surface, she only had sixty-five copper coins, she didn't take it to heart at all.

She originally wanted to find wild ginseng and dry mushrooms, but the result was that she wanted to make Xiao Liu happy.

She had plenty of money in her space, so she wasn't short of any small expenses.

Meng Qiqi felt that every time she entered the small world, it would be better if the original character did not collapse, so that she could experience different fireworks.

As for the things in this space, she just regarded them as a way to satisfy her own appetite.

It can be considered as a necessary suitcase for traveling through the small world.

Meng Qiqi stayed in the space for a long time before she slowly walked out, opened the door of the room and walked out.

As soon as she came out, she was blocked by Meng Youyou who was standing at the door.

"Fourth sister, what are you trying to do?" Meng Qiqi leaned against the wall at the door, looking like she was waiting for you to say something.

"Qiqi, you haven't paid much attention to me in the past few months." Meng Youyou complained aggrievedly that Meng Qiqi was too cold and unkind.

"Fourth sister, this is really unfair to me. Why didn't I pay attention to you? I talked to you every day!" Meng Qiqi said that she and Meng Youyou nodded or greeted each other politely every day.

Meng Qiqi's words blocked Meng Youyou's lips, but for what Mushroom had done, she still said shamelessly, "Oh! I was just thinking, haven't we sat down and chatted for a long time!"
