Chapter 024(2/2)
Before the dishes were served, the third child and the fourth child were sitting on the stools in an orderly manner, staring at the kitchen. Even the second child, who was always calm, was looking at the kitchen with a smile.
"Here comes the food!" Ling Tianyang and Wang brought out bowls of food. Wang took off her apron after bringing the food, "Second brother, go get the rice, Tianyang, go get the chopsticks!"
"Wow, sister, it smells so good!"
"Sister, I'm so hungry, hurry up!"
Mrs. Wang gently patted the third child on the head, "You little kid, what's the hurry? Eat it right away!" Although Mrs. Wang was yelling at the third child, her own eyes were red. How could this be such a good dish?
I haven't eaten for a long time.
After eating, the fourth child lay in Wang's arms and refused to move. He said that his stomach was so full that he could not move. The third child was next to Ling Wensheng and asked him to help him rub his belly. The second child sat with Ling Tianyang.
Together, Ling Tianyang talked to his second son about yesterday's events. Finally, Ling Wensheng and Wang also joined the discussion. In the end, they unanimously decided to go up the mountain to pick gallnuts tomorrow.
"Dad, how many bags of grain can our family harvest this year?"
The night in the countryside is particularly beautiful. The family sits happily together. Looking up, one can see the purest starry sky. In the distance, there are high and low sounds of insects. Although it is not "the fragrance of rice flowers means a good harvest", it still works.
Find other ways to make money.
"Yangyang, why are you asking this?" Ling Wensheng looked at her daughter curiously. Ever since Yangyang left the ancestral hall, things seemed to have become different, especially the matter of making money from quintessence. Now almost everyone in the family only hears about it.
Whenever Yangyang comes up with a new idea, he or she will be curious, will it make money this time?
"Dad, it's not enough to just sell gallnuts. By the end of autumn at most, the gallnuts will be almost gone. What will we do then? So, I want to try other ways first, but I don't know if it will work?" Ling Tianyang didn't dare to do it this time.
If you say you know how to make wine, what will you use to cover up your lies? There is a saying that goes: every lie you tell, you need more lies to cover it up.
Ling Wensheng suddenly felt so guilty in his heart. Supporting his family should have been his business, but now a little girl had to do it. How could he not feel guilty?
"Yangyang, don't worry and try boldly. Dad will take care of everything for you." Ling Wensheng looked at the skinny daughter and patted her shoulder gently.
Seeing the expression on Ling Wensheng's face, how could a simple and honest man know how to hide his feelings? His guilt was clearly written on his face, "Dad, I know, don't worry, I will definitely find a way out for our family!"
"
"Sister, let's look for him too, we will!" The third child stretched out his head and approached Ling Tianyang with a flattering look on his face.
"Okay, okay, then sister is waiting for us, San'er and Xiaosi, to find a way to support sister!"
"I think this year's harvest will be at most 40% of last year's. Yangyang, what are you going to do?" Ling Wensheng lowered his head and did some calculations, then sighed and said.
"Oh, dad, our family has little land?"
"Why do you think of asking this? There are two acres of dry land, and more paddy fields, which are only three acres. After paying the tax, our family can't even eat enough!"
"Why is this the only thing we have? There are six people in our family!" Ling Tianyang frowned. In ancient times, technology was not as developed as modern technology. One acre can weigh several thousand kilograms. With six people and five acres of fields, even that land, that field
She's very fat. She can't eat enough even if she thinks about it. She also has to pay taxes. It's really...
"Dad, how is our farm, okay?"
"What's so good? It's not your third uncle. The fourth uncle and the others choose the rest!" At this time, Mr. Wang suddenly interrupted, filled with resentment. When the family was separated, his father-in-law and mother-in-law said that their family was
The elders should give way to the younger ones, so they should choose the fields first.
"Ah? No wonder!" Ling Tianyang glanced sharply in the direction of the old house. The third uncle's family was small and the land was good. No wonder the third uncle had money to go out to do business. Although the fourth uncle's family was worse than the third uncle's family, it was
With the help of the fourth aunt, life is good; not to mention the old house, the grandparents must have reserved the best fields for themselves, not to mention that their family is full of strong laborers, his father, his grandmother, and his children
