"what?"

"Keep them to sell."

Du Mingxian chuckled, "Mother, since we're the ones selling it, there must be some for our own people to eat."

“You, five taels of silver, that’s a lot of money! You can’t eat like that.”

"Mom, if others can eat, then we can eat too. Isn't life all about eating and drinking?"

Ling's mother couldn't argue with Du Mingxian, so she said, "Fine, but you need to pay more attention to making the sauce. Don't do any housework lately, just stay home and make the sauce."

"Mom, we don't have enough beans. Everyone in the family is busy. I'll go buy some."

"No need, I'll go find it. You wait at home."

"Oh."

About half an hour later, voices came from outside. Ling's mother directed four young men to carry two large bags of beans into the kitchen before letting them leave.

Du Mingxian felt that Ling's mother was really amazing, and couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, "Mom, you are really awesome."

“I have a general idea of ​​what each family in the village has. You do it, and I’ll have your sister-in-law come and help.”

"it is good."

Ling's mother went to call for help, and Du Mingxian poured out some beans, then hurriedly mixed in a lot of the ones from her spatial storage.

Last time she bought beans in the county and saw Wu Daniu, she forgot to take them from her spatial storage because she was thinking about Wu Daniu. She couldn't miss this opportunity again.

When Wang, Zhou, and Liu came in, Du Mingxian had already poured the beans into several basins and buckets, so it was impossible to tell how many beans there were.

It just makes people feel a lot.

The beans need to be washed, but the Ling family doesn't have a well, so they still have to fetch water from the river.

When the group started washing the beans, a large vat of water was emptied in just a few seconds.

At this moment, Ling Dalang and Ling Erlang returned with water and added it to the water vat. The group quickly washed themselves and then soaked in the water.

After the beans were soaked, Ling Dalang and Ling Erlang had already made several trips to pick them. They were now adding water to the water vat to save it for later use.

We used every bucket and basin in the house to soak the beans, and it was barely enough. Now we only have four buckets that can be filled with water, and not a single empty basin.

Seeing this, Du Mingxian felt that if she were to do this business regularly, she would still need more furniture.

That evening, she talked about it with Ling Silang.

“This business is viable, but we need to create a brand name for our sauce that makes people think it tastes delicious as soon as they hear the name. Once they hear our brand name, they will recognize our sauce.”

“Then we should choose a good one,” Ling Silang said.

Du Mingxian looked at him and said, "You are the scholar in the family, so you should get up."

Ling Silang: "..." Is this the role of a scholar? "A mouthful of fragrance?"

"Row."

Du Mingxian is terrible at naming things and doesn't want to name anyone at all, so she feels great about the name Ling Silang came up with.

The next morning, she ordered a larger quantity of jars, but she requested that the words "Full of Fragrance" be printed directly on the jars as an imprint.

Because of the requirements, the price of the jars went up, becoming twenty coins more than the previous ordinary ones.

Du Mingxian was able to accept it and placed the order immediately.

When she got home, she found that there were some extra basins and buckets in the house.

Seeing her in a daze, Zhou explained, "These are what Mother brought back. Some are new, and some are extras from other families in the village. Mother bought them all, saying they're for soaking and storing beans."

Du Mingxian felt that Ling's mother was truly an exceptionally good mother-in-law. She had just thought of getting a batch of containers, but her mother-in-law had already thought of it before her and brought the items back.

Zhou looked around and, finding no one nearby, lowered her voice and asked quietly, "Is this sauce very profitable?"

How did Second Sister-in-law know?

"You can tell just by looking at Mom's behavior. Although she was good to us before, she wouldn't be like this. Yesterday, she went to get beans, and today she brought a basin. She must be making a profit for this, otherwise she wouldn't be so enthusiastic."

Du Mingxian chuckled; this second sister-in-law was truly clever.

"Yes, it can make money."

"Wow, that's great!"

Du Mingxian was somewhat taken aback to find no jealousy in Zhou's eyes. Her second sister-in-law seemed so indifferent to money. "Second sister-in-law, don't you have any thoughts?"

"Ah, what's on my mind?"

"The family hasn't divided up yet, so this money probably won't end up in your hands."

Madam Zhou waved her hand dismissively, "What does it matter if we don't get a share? Anyway, this money will go to Mother, and Mother can use it to support our children. It's like Mother is helping us raise our children. What could I possibly be dissatisfied with?"

Du Mingxian chuckled; her second sister-in-law was truly a treasure.

She was laughing when she felt someone staring at her. She turned around and saw her sister-in-law, Wang, standing at the door with a very unpleasant expression.

As Ling's mother was about to come in, she noticed her eldest daughter-in-law blocking her way and gently pushed her aside, saying, "What are you standing there for? Get out of the way."

Wang turned and left.

When Ling's mother came in and saw Du Mingxian, her eyes narrowed with a smile. "When you're making the sauce today, I'll help you."

"The jars won't be ready until the day after tomorrow, so making the sauce might take a while, as there aren't any jars available."

"Okay, Mother will help when it's done."

Seeing that Ling's mother was about to leave, and remembering the difficulty of fetching water, Du Mingxian quickly called out, "Mother."

"what happened?"

"The house is gradually being built. Could you add a well to the yard? That would make washing things and cooking more convenient."

“I told your father that we need to dig a well in each of the four courtyards.”

Zhou was so shocked that her mouth dropped open. After Ling's mother left, she whispered, "Four wells! My God, Fourth Sister-in-law, I feel like everyone in the village is going to die of envy."

She laughed after saying that, "It's okay, the more jealous they are, the better. I like to see their envious faces."

Du Mingxian: "..."

Things went smoothly. We got the jars, made the sauce, sealed them, and set everything aside.

The four people in the house got up at the same time, and a few days before the house was being built, Ling's mother was planning to slaughter one of the pigs the family was raising.

Wang felt a little sorry for the pig. "Mother, the pig is still small. Let's raise it a little longer. By the New Year, it will definitely be bigger. It's not appropriate to slaughter it now."

"We'll be putting up the roof beam in a couple of days, and we'll be inviting the villagers for a meal. We need to have some meat."

Seeing that they were worried about this, Du Mingxian suggested, "Mother, I'll go for a walk in the mountains and see if I can hunt some wild animals."

"That's great, wild boar would be best."

"It depends on luck." If she encounters a wild boar, she's sure she can fight it back; if not, then there's no chance.

Zhou was very confident, "My fourth sister-in-law is a lucky girl, she will definitely succeed."

Du Mingxian: "..."

Ling's mother felt sorry for the pig, but also for Du Mingxian. "Why don't you go? It's like slaughtering a pig for me."

"Mother, I also want to go into the mountains to have a look." It's been quite a while since I've been to the mountains.

"alright."

Du Mingxian was given special permission to go hunting in the mountains. This time, she also took a bow that Ling's mother had borrowed from someone else's house. In fact, it was Ling Silang's uncle's house.
