He got on the bike and asked as he rode, "Why are you out after dark?"

"We sent the fish to Grandpa Huang and taught him how to stew the fish in the pot." An Xueyan explained in front.

An Honglei also said happily: "Dad, we caught a lot of fish today. We can have fish soup tonight."

While the three of them were chatting, they arrived at the door of their house. After parking the car in their utility room, the father, son and daughter went to the old house.

An Qingping was holding a package in his hand.

"The third son is back, and it's time for dinner. What did you buy? Stop spending money indiscriminately." Zhang Guihua couldn't help but scold her son when she saw what he was holding in his hand.

An Qingping said helplessly: "These are the food and daily necessities that the children's godmother bought for them. There are also some for you, parents, so I took them here."

I wonder if her mother can change her frugal nature in this lifetime?

"Oh, why is Xiaohui spending so much money and buying it for us too? I feel embarrassed." Zhang Guihua said as she quickly took the package.

I took it to the kang and opened it. There was a set of winter cotton clothes for the two children, a piece of cloth suitable for the elderly, and some candies and snacks.

These things were not cheap, so Zhang Guihua said to her son, "We have fish today. Tomorrow, third son, you should take three to their house, and also some dried meat. They are in need of meat in the city."

An Honglei, who was asked by his grandmother to try on new clothes, also took the initiative and said, "I'll go to the river to catch more fish tomorrow and send them to my godmother and the others."

"Next time I go to the city, I'll check the health of my godfather and godmother and prescribe some medicine for them." An Xueyan thought that this was the only thing she could offer now.

An Qingping had no objection to their proposal.

Zhang Guihua carefully put away the things and the family started eating.

Drinking the delicious fish soup and eating a bite of sweet and sour fish is simply the best thing in the world.

Tonight, the aroma of fish soup wafted from many homes in the brigade, making those who didn't get to eat fish very greedy.

After dinner, An Xueyan showed her father the crossbow her grandfather had made.

An Qingping studied it and said, "It's quite powerful. You can take it with you if you go to the mountains in the future."

An Xueyan said proudly, "I think so too. Grandpa is still making one for my brother. Then we will each have one."

Seeing his son and daughter's happy faces, An Qingping said, "Dad will make more wooden arrows for you to put at home when he has time."

An Honglei smiled happily and said, "Thank you, Dad. I'm learning to do it myself."

It is relatively simple to carve wooden arrows. He has asked his grandfather how to make them and plans to practice every day. The main thing is to get the size of the wooden arrow right. Otherwise, if it is too big, it cannot be put in, and if it is too small, it will easily get stuck inside.

After chatting for a while in the old house, An Xueyan made an excuse to ask her father to go with her to her pharmacy.

It was a small room separated from her room in their house.

Seeing that they were alone, An Xueyan looked at her father and asked, "Dad, can I sell the food in my space for money?"

"We are not short of money at home, so just keep it for yourself." An Qingping said gently.

An Xueyan frowned and said, "But the space is almost full."

He couldn't refuse his daughter's request, so he could only say gently, "Dad will see if there is anyone who wants her. I'll deal with it after we've arranged it."

An Xueyan smiled only after getting her father's promise. She was not worried about her father's current strength to work in the black market, so she made this request. She also wanted to use the resources in her hands to exchange for more capital as soon as possible.

"Dad, how much did the Ganoderma lucidum sell for this time?" Although the money belonged to her brother, it didn't stop her from finding out the prices first.

"The quantity was quite large, so I sold it for 700 yuan." An Qingping also told the truth.

Hearing this figure, An Xueyan smiled happily and said, "Wait until the medicinal herbs in my space age a little longer, and then I can sell some of them. Hehe, then I will have a lot of money, and I can support my father, brother, grandparents, and aunt in the future."

"Dad can support you." A daughter's behavior of wanting to support the family is filial piety, but as long as the intention is there, he still wants to raise his daughter.

Thinking of his daughter's words about buying a big house in the city in the future, he asked, "Yan Yan, do you want to live in the city now?"

She was not going to the city now. She quickly shook her head and said seriously, "I don't want to go now. I heard from my cousin that the city is very chaotic and there are always bad people watching. I don't like it."

After confirming that his daughter was telling the truth, An Qingping gave up the idea of ​​buying a house in the city.

The city is indeed more chaotic than the countryside now, so he smiled and said, "Then wait a few years and see what happens."

"OK."

"Dad, I've collected a lot of succulent seeds in my space. Can we plant them in our family plot next year?"

“How much do you plan to plant?”

"I want to plant this on half of my land first. It will be harvested in about three months. Normally, one mu of land can yield 3 to 5 kilograms. The purchasing station charges 75 cents per kilogram. If we plant half a mu, we can get about 125 to kilograms, which means we can earn to yuan."

If An Xueyan wanted to convince her father, she should do the accounting for her. This amount of money was much more than what she could earn from work points.

After she said this, she saw her father was thinking about something, so she continued:

"I mainly thought that my grandparents could grow this to have an additional source of income in the future." Elderly people still need to have financial strength to feel confident.

Her grandmother will stop complaining about them being prodigals every day, and if this is planted, it is not impossible for the team to consider it.

An Qingping didn't know much about Chinese medicinal herbs, so he asked, "What does the succulent plant look like? Is it easy to grow?"

I took a plant of impatient plant that was in bloom from the air.

An Qingping blurted out: "Isn't this Impatiens?"

An Xueyan explained: "The plant is called Impatiens balsamina, and the seeds it produces are called Impatiens."

Seeing the fresh and tender flower seedlings, An Qingping could only shake his head and said, "Forget about our family's private plot. Now is not the right time. I'll go talk to your uncle and see if we can allocate an acre of land for planting."

Private individuals are still not allowed to grow this thing on a large scale. It might be considered a capitalist practice before it matures, which would attract those people.

An Xueyan didn't have a clear understanding of the situation in this era, so she asked, "Isn't our private plot our own? Are there any restrictions on what we can plant?"

The daughter was still young and didn't understand many things, so An Qingping patiently explained: "The main thing is that this is a flower. Imagine our private plot blooming into a sea of ​​flowers in the summer. Some people don't care so much and just think we are growing flowers, which is petty bourgeois and not allowed."

"Okay, Dad, you can ask uncle if he wants to plant it. You can sell the seeds to him. These seeds are much better than the ones on the market. You can give him a 9% discount on the market price." She gave him a discount for the sake of their family. It was definitely a conscience price.
