Farming and reading family

Chapter 375 Do You Know What I Want

But when she reached the school, her excitement was no longer there.

Du Weiqing was explaining an article to Yunshuang, who was listening attentively. The two of them sat opposite each other like a perfect couple.

The second uncle on the side was looking through the book for verification, looking a little anxious.

Luo Qing'er pulled the dog's tail grass on the side of the steps and made a straw dog weave, carefree.

Chen Hanyue had a feeling that she had come at the wrong time.

"Han Yue?" Luo Qing'er jumped up from the stairs.

"I, I'm delivering lunch to my second uncle and Mr. Du." Chen Hanyue was a little reserved.

"The meal is ready." Luo Qing'er said and turned around, "Sister Yunshuang, let's go back and eat."

Yunshuang then saluted Du Weiqing and stood up.

When Chen Hanyue saw Yunshuang bowing, she felt even more ashamed of herself and thought that only a well-educated and well-mannered woman like Yunshuang was worthy of Mr. Du.

Du Weiqing also stood up quickly: "If those friends in Qinzhou City were to taste this delicacy, I think the price of pig offal in Qinzhou City would go up."

Chen Hanyue went over and put out the food, then ran away with the basket.

"What happened to your niece?" Du Weiqing looked at Chen Ke in confusion.

"Maybe he's in a hurry to go home for dinner." Chen Ke explained.

Du Weiqing shook his head and laughed, thinking that the little girl was just so simple-minded.

In the afternoon, Gao E saw Chen Hanyue sitting listlessly in front of the cave, holding a half-embroidered sachet in her hand, which looked ugly no matter how she looked at it.

"What's wrong?" Gao E felt that Chen Hanyue was shocked.

Chen Hanyue looked frustrated: "Now I understand, a talented man is paired with a beautiful woman, and a mung bean is paired with a turtle."

Gao E wanted to laugh when she heard this: "It's okay, you will have many things to understand in the future."

Chen Hanyue glanced at her second aunt and felt that she was not good at comforting people at all: "I feel so upset."

Gao E nodded: "When you understand more in the future, you will find that now is the smoothest time."

Chen Hanyue almost cried when she heard this: "How difficult will my future be then?"

Gao E, however, wanted to laugh the more she listened: "Alright, just thinking about nonsense all day long."

"How come she's gone? My sister is getting married in the winter, and I'm that old now." Chen Hanyue's voice got softer and softer as she spoke.

If someone heard this, it would be too embarrassing to say that she was in a hurry to get married.

"How old are you?" Gao E said angrily, "Do you know how to manage a household? The daily necessities of life, such as rice, oil, salt, and soy sauce, vinegar, and tea, if you marry into a good family, are you able to manage them?"

Chen Hanyue looked at her second aunt: "It's enough to have money."

"Making money is a skill, but spending money also has its ways. It's impossible for the family to always have plenty of money. Have you ever thought about where to spend it and how much to spend so that you can make ends meet?" Gao E asked.

Chen Hanyue looked at the account book with her second aunt, but in her mind she only looked at the account book and did not actually do the accounting.

"Women from wealthy families not only need to meet certain age requirements, but also need to learn how to manage the household." Gao E stopped here.

Generally, women from farming families are born to make a living, and when they reach a certain age, they are married off. They stop being a laborer in their natal family and become a laborer in their husband’s family, and they are also responsible for giving birth.

Day by day, the daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law and repeats the same routine.

"I'm not a girl from a wealthy family." Chen Hanyue muttered softly.

"No matter who you are, you must work hard to make your life better than before." Gao E didn't know how to teach Chen Hanyue.

Although Chen Hanyue was strong-willed, her horizons were too narrow: "Then what should I do?"

"Read more books." Gao E patted Chen Hanyue's shoulder.

"I don't want to go." Chen Hanyue thought of Mr. Du and Yunshuang discussing academic matters together.

Gao E didn't continue.

When they were having dinner in the evening, they heard a loud noise coming from the other side of the cave. The villagers were eating meat and bragging.

Late in the evening, another quarrel broke out. It seemed that Guo Sheng was about to take people out but was stopped by Zheng Fengan, and the two sides started arguing.

It was rare for Lei not to go and watch the fun. She and her second sister-in-law sat at the door and listened for a while.

"These people used to listen to Uncle Zheng, why are they like this now?" Lei asked in a low voice.

"Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents," Gao E whispered. "Seeing others making so much money, some people are bound to be jealous."

To be honest, Lei was also a little envious, but she knew what not to touch.

"Where's the second one?" She looked around and hurriedly looked for her man.

However, no one dared to come to the Chen family to recruit people. The three chefs of the Chen family sat around the table eating braised food and drinking wine, feeling that this was a heavenly day.

Even Master An has recently gotten over the pain of losing his wife and has become much more cheerful.

"Boss." Master Ma called out when he saw Gao E come in.

"Master Ma, what's the matter?" Gao E sat over.

"Several people in the village didn't go to the kiln today. What is the boss's plan?" Master Ma felt that some people in Baotou Village were somewhat ungrateful.

"The amount of work you do affects the final distribution of food. Just write it down and check it with the village head later." Gao E explained.

"Even if you don't want to go to work, you should tell me in advance, in case it delays something." Master Xie was dissatisfied.

He was also at the kiln today and felt that Gao E was too tolerant towards the villagers.

"I'll discuss this with my elder brother and the others." Gao E agreed. "Nothing happened at the kiln, right?"

"It's just a shame." Master Xie sighed, "When will bricks and tiles in Hexian be sold at this price? It's a pity to miss it."

"Three times." Gao E suddenly said, "As long as the other party offers three times the price, we will sign the order with them."

"Impossible." Master Ma thought the price was too high. "They're not crazy."

Gao E knew that the other party was not crazy, but the price would drive others crazy.

"If there really is someone who offers such a price, then there must be other purposes." Master Xie was calm.

Gao E nodded: "As long as the other party is willing to pay three times, we will take it."

Several people thought it was impossible.

The night was peaceful. Gao E called the second brother over after breakfast in the morning. The second brother was yawning as if he had not gotten enough sleep.

"What did you do last night?" Gao E looked at Chen Jie.

Chen Jie was a little embarrassed: "I'll follow Guo Sheng and the others to see what's going on."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei nudged him with his elbow and rolled his eyes.

"You went in?" Gao E was also a little angry.

"No, it was smoky and full of smoke. I could only hear them shouting and yelling, excited about winning money..." Chen Jie's voice became quieter as he spoke. "I really didn't go in."

"Second sister-in-law, he doesn't dare." Lei assured.

"It's better not to dare." Gao E warned.

Chen Jie smiled apologetically: "What does Second Sister-in-law want me to do?"

"Call Zheng Xiaoshun, and the two of you go check out the conditions at other brick kilns and the current prices of bricks and tiles." Gao E originally wanted to let Master Ma go, but Master Ma was old.

"Zheng Xiaoshun?" Chen Jie was overwhelmed when he heard this. "What about that bird?"

"I'll watch." Gao E knew that Que'er only stuck with Zheng Xiaoshun.

"Okay, then I'll go find Zheng Xiaoshun." Chen Jie nodded.

Lei watched Chen Jie leave and whispered, "I heard they won dozens of taels in one night."
