Chapter 97
: Growing rice and cultivating hatred
"Don't worry, auntie, I'll go down and make arrangements immediately." Si Zhengping responded quickly.
"By the way, have you notified me about the meat sharing?" Si Qing asked.
"Not yet, Auntie, I'll be there right away."
"Then go quickly."
After Si Qing said that, he sent Si Zhengping away and began to look at these gold jewelry. I wonder if all the gold jewelry looked similar. The more Si Qing looked at it, the more he felt that these jewelry seemed a bit familiar.
She took the gold lock and looked carefully, but didn't find anything special, so she found the money box and put away the silver and gold jewelry.
The fifteen taels found from Si Dashan's house were all broken silver.
Si Qing earned one hundred taels from selling venison before, spent three taels on shopping, and made another twenty taels for Si Zhengping to make a new plow. Now he still has a large silver ingot of fifty taels and two ten taels.
Two small silver ingots, two slings of copper coins, and six taels of broken silver.
Among the broken silver was one tael that Chen Xiaohe helped sell rabbit fur last time. Adding in the fifteen taels of silver she found from Si Dashan's house this time, she had a total of ninety-three taels of silver.
Si Qing did the math and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
It took her so long to earn this little money, which is really a bit miserable.
Thinking back then, she could spend the best spiritual stones casually, but now she is so poor that she only has more than ninety taels of silver. This gap is too big.
No, we have to make more money. I will ask Chen Xiaohe later how the deer skin is being tanned. This deer skin should still be able to be sold for some money.
The calculations in Si Qing's heart were rattling.
She had no idea how incredible it was that in this world, a little girl could earn more than ninety taels in less than two months.
You should know how difficult it is for ordinary farmers to get money. Even Si Zhengping's family has not saved so much money in so many years.
After Si Zhengping left Si's house, he started to go from house to house to notify everyone to meet at the entrance of the village after dinner.
When everyone gathered at the entrance of the village, Si Zhengping went to invite Si Qing again.
Si Qing felt a little lazy after dinner and his arms still felt a little uncomfortable, so he ordered Wu to boil water for a bath.
Seeing that Si Qing didn't want to go, Si Zhengping had to call a few young men to come over and carry the wild boar out.
Let me tell you, my aunt is going to share the meat with you again.
When the gathered villagers heard that the aunt wanted to share the meat with them, every one of them waved their hands and refused without hesitation.
"Village chief, my aunt just divided the meat a few days ago, let's forget it this time!"
"Exactly! We failed to get meat for my aunt to eat, but now we are eating my aunt's meat again and again. How old is my aunt, but I don't have the face to do so."
"No, if people knew about this, they would think that our group of people in Dajia Village are so shameless that they even cheated little babies out of food."
"That's right, village chief, please ask someone to carry this wild boar back. It's our fault that we don't have the ability to make good food to honor my aunt. How can we still eat my aunt's food?"
"We don't want to..."
"Yes, if you want to eat it, let's make it ourselves..."
Seeing the villagers turn around and leave, Si Zhengping's heart felt anxious. To be honest, he was really afraid that these people in the village would take the things given by his aunt for granted.
But now it seems that he has thought too much.
Si Zhengping hurriedly called out to the villagers who were about to leave: "Don't leave in a hurry. Today, when my aunt asked me to share the meat with everyone, I actually disagreed!"
"But my aunt keeps insisting. Why? Because my aunt has us in her heart. She worries about us and wants us to live a better life. Do you have the heart to refuse my aunt's kindness?
Now that taxes are so heavy, life is difficult for everyone. Can my aunt not be worried? My aunt specially asked Qiongqi to capture the wild boar just to share it with everyone.
