When Zhang Guilan said she wanted to leave, the Liu family were so happy that they left three mouths at once! How much money would this save?

But soon they stopped laughing. Old Mrs. Liu couldn't bear it first, as there was no one to do the housework anymore.

She did all the laundry, cooking, and tidying up the house. The other people, old and young, were all men, and no one reached out to help her.

Old Mrs. Liu persisted for more than a week, but finally she couldn't hold on any longer. She was an old woman, and she still had to serve people like an old slave. What kind of fate was she!

Old Mrs. Liu was having a hard time, so she was beaten and beaten, and she couldn't cook well, so others couldn't even hope to have a good life.

"You go and call her back tomorrow." Mrs. Liu said to her son.

"Stop dreaming, I've had enough!" Mrs. Liu hit him: "Don't you know that the supply and marketing cooperatives don't sell bean sprouts these days? It's said that the weather is bad and they can't produce such good bean sprouts!"

300 yuan a month would fall into her pocket, how could she not care? She went to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative every day to see how many people bought how many kilograms of bean sprouts.

As a result, there are fewer and fewer of them day by day, and they have not been sold for the past two days.

Before Liu Xiangqian spoke, Liu Cong stopped: "Nai, those bean sprouts can earn 300 a month! Not 30! It would be a pity to give up."

With that money, he can marry Sun Xiaofang!

Old Mrs. Liu saw his plan clearly at a glance and rolled her eyes in anger. Her eldest grandson was fascinated by the little goblin of the Sun family.

The family really can't come up with 200 yuan, and the second thing is that they can't marry Sun Xiaofang... If they can't come up with the money, what should the Sun family really do if they sue him?

"This Guilan is really a loser, I shouldn't have married her in the first place!" Mrs. Liu rolled her eyes at her son and said, "I have a good bean sprout business in the whole village, 2,000 jins a day, but when she comes back, 200 jins are gone!

It’s all her fault!”

When she mentioned this Liu Xiangqian, she felt unhappy and said angrily: "If she's not good, then divorce her! Marry another one."

Just over 100 kilograms of bean sprouts are not enough for the leaders to share. How can there be any excess for sale?

Mrs. Liu was so heartbroken that she decided to call the person back. If she couldn't earn 300, she would just come back and earn 25! She could still serve their whole family.

"What?" Liu Cong yelled, unable to accept the news: "How could this happen?"

He still doesn't want to give up.

Besides, now is the season for cooking. He went to see Zhang Guilan. She couldn't let him come back empty-handed, could she? Then he would have to order fresh vegetables and send them to Sun's house. See Xiaofang, and then beg her to find a way.

, that’s almost it. If we really sue him, will she look good with a firm belly?

...

Before Mrs. Liu said anything, Liu Cong quit: "No, dad! You've already married two people! I don't have one yet. I can't give you all the money in the family to find a wife! If you hadn't married Zhang Guilan in the first place, you would have spent so much money on it."

With a lot of money, it won’t be so difficult for me to find a wife now.”

"Are you still relying on me?" Liu Xiangqian couldn't help but took off the soles of his shoes and went towards Liu Cong.

Liu Cong was not going to be beaten obediently. He ran and shouted: "Tomorrow I will go to Kaoshantun to see Zhang Guilan and see how much money she earns!"

It was gone in the blink of an eye.

In this era, supplies are in short supply. If it weren't for various "ticket" restrictions, everything could be robbed.

These inexpensive and fresh vegetables, especially those sold by Zhang Guilan, are robbed faster.

Early the next morning, Zhang Guilan and Aunt Ma and Aunt Liu went to the black market each carrying a basket.

A basket of fresh vegetables, a basket of dried mushrooms, and a basket of large watermelons.

Vegetables are 12.30 cents per bundle, dried mushrooms are 1 yuan per bunch, and watermelons are 5 cents each.

Liu Cong, who was about to catch the train, happened to pass by and was also attracted by the fragrance. However, before he could get closer, the watermelon was divided one by one.

The crowd dispersed quickly, revealing Zhang Guilan inside.

Liu Cong was stunned for a moment, then turned around suddenly, left quickly, hid in the darkness, and quietly observed Zhang Guilan.

Zhang Guilan didn't even know that she now has a group of loyal and stable customers. Even if there is no shortage of food at home, she still has to come and wait for her every morning, buying whatever she sells!

Several customers had a small dispute over watermelons. One person wanted to settle the matter, but the others refused.

Because the road was not good and 100 kilograms of watermelon was too heavy, Zhang Guilan rested several times along the way. When he put down the basket and picked it up, one of the watermelons was cracked. The unusual fragrance filled the surrounding area, which attracted people.

I wanted to empty my pockets and wrap it up.

He followed the three of them back to Kaoshan Village, watching the other two women leave one after another, and watching Zhang Guilan enter a yard and get busy, where she dried many mushrooms.

Zhang Guilan's attitude was very natural, just like at home.

Then he walked over.

After Zhang Guilan sold out the watermelons, she helped Aunt Ma and Aunt Liu sell things. She heard that the two baskets of things also belonged to her, so she sold them quickly.

In 10 minutes, all the items were sold out, and the three people left with their baskets on their backs.

Liu Cong followed them and got on the train. They were not in the same carriage, and Liu Cong didn't want to face Zhang Guilan now.

When Zhang Guilan heard his voice, she almost threw the broom in her hand.

She looked back at the person outside the fence, and it was really Liu Cong.

"You, why are you here?" She suddenly felt nervous.

"Aunt Zhang, do you live here? It's nice." He said, staring at the mushrooms on the ground.

So many mushrooms, if dried, weigh about 100 kilograms, and a kilogram of dried mushrooms costs 1 yuan, which is the market price, so this is 100 yuan!

Did she pick it? Great!

She was a little afraid of Liu Cong from the bottom of her heart.

Liu Cong knew this and was very proud.

"Did you pick these mushrooms?" Liu Cong asked.

When she married into the Liu family, Liu Cong was thirteen or fourteen years old. When he got angry, he beat her frequently, sometimes even harder than Liu Xiangqian.

She didn't dare to fight back. Once she did, everyone in the Liu family, including Liu Cong's uncles and aunts who had been separated, would come over and beat her.

Liu Cong continued to beat her like this for five or six years. It wasn't until Liu Cong was in his 20s, tall and strong, and everyone laughed at him for beating his honest stepmother that he restrained himself.

If it were before, she would never dare to lie to Liu Cong, but now, she must lie, otherwise the results of her three daughters' hard work for many days will be snatched away by him alone!

"Who picked that? Whose house is this? Why do you live here?" Liu Cong didn't believe it and asked with a frown.

"This is my newly built house. Because there is open space, my neighbors come over to borrow space to dry mushrooms." Zhang Guilan lied bravely.

"No, no!" Zhang Guilan immediately shook her head: "I haven't picked any! I have to work, how can I have time to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms?" This is true.

As well as future results, he will take them away!

She knows Liu Cong too well.
