Chapter 89 Heavy Rain (Second update)

 In fact, Mrs. Ye was really not satisfied with the Cui family at first and did not want her daughter to marry into the Cui family.

 She felt that her Zhiluo deserved a better person.

But Zhi Luo liked it, and Cui Hejin was indeed brought up by a noble family, and his actions showed good education, so they nodded in agreement.

Just thinking, as long as Zhiluo is happy, that will be fine.

Now that Zhiluo is sensible and smart, and looks good, it can be seen that her life is comfortable, and she feels a little relieved.

 Otherwise, she would feel uneasy.

“Mom looks at Hejin. Although he has a cold temper, he has a soft and kind heart. If you two live a good life, my mother will feel relieved.”

Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry, he is very good."

“Since the blacksmith shop thinks that the bellows is useful, if we publicize it well, more people will buy the bellows later, but this is a matter of time.”

Mr. Ye nodded and said: "That's right. Your father and I originally wanted to sell the bellows for 200 cents each, but we can't get the price at all here. If the price is too high, no one in the village will be willing to buy it. If For one hundred cents, whoever has good conditions in the nearby village may be willing to buy a bellows and use it. "

“They don’t understand the bellows now. Only after they actually use it will they know how useful it is. It’s especially convenient for cooking.”

"Just a few pulls, and the flame at the stove will be very strong, which saves firewood."

“The weather is getting warmer now, and everyone can’t feel anything. I think when the weather gets colder, especially in winter, everyone will buy a bellows.”

Jiang Zhiluo nodded.

Jiang Yunxuan helped pour the water and then sat obediently and watched.

Even if he doesn’t quite understand what his mother and sister say, he still likes to stick to her.

 After talking about the conversation, Ye started talking about picking dandelions.

"The medical clinic in our county collects medicinal materials. Some common medicinal materials are dried and sent half-dried. They cost ten cents per pound. They just collect dandelions. Your sister will pick dandelions and dry them when she has nothing to do."

“Your third and fifth sisters went to pick after lunch.”

Jiang Zhiluo nodded. She knew that her younger brothers and sisters in the family were all hardworking and capable.

“Are the medicinal materials so cheap? It only costs ten cents per pound.”

Although dandelions are common in the mountains, they weigh nothing at all, let alone half-dried.

Ye Shi nodded and said: "Medicinal materials are all priced at this price. Maybe the uncommon medicinal materials are expensive, but we have neither seen nor understood those uncommon medicinal materials, so naturally we cannot pick them."

"Anyway, I'm free when I'm free. I'm not busy now. I pick more on weekdays and dry them, and I can sell them for twenty or thirty cents."

"Don't look at these twenty or thirty cents, you can buy several kilograms of coarse grains."

 “And you won’t be tired from doing these jobs, you can do them in your free time.”

 For Mr. Ye, if he can make an extra penny, it is also a gain.

One penny can buy two eggs.

Jiang Zhiluo knew that Ye was used to living a careful and careful life.

She has many younger brothers and sisters, and there is still land at home, so she may not have time to go to town every day to set up a stall and do business.

Besides, not everyone is suitable for setting up a stall. Even if they have a skill, some people may not know how to do it. If they are not good at dealing with people, they will be afraid of setting up a stall.

  She had asked her father before, and he also wanted to take some time to do something.

In this way, Jiang Zhiluo was talking to her mother and brother, and time passed little by little.

 At mid-afternoon, thunder suddenly sounded in the sky.

 “Boom…”

 “Boom…”

 As the thunder continued, strong winds blew in the sky.

Ye's expression changed and he said, "It's going to rain heavily."

Ye didn't care about anything else and hurriedly went to the yard to take the clothes home to dry.

Jiang Zhiluo hurriedly helped take the dandelions back to the house, and Xuanxuan also used her calves to move the small bench and dustpan home in the yard.

 He was only five years old and had little strength. He could not move so much at once, so he had to move it one at a time.

I accidentally fell down and got up quickly.

Jiang Zhiluo was holding something in both hands and didn't bother to help him. Seeing how sensible he looked, she felt a little sour in her heart. “Xuanxuan, there are some things that are heavy and you can’t move them. Just come here.”

Xuanxuan said seriously while taking the things: "Sister, I can move a few more times, so that my mother and sister will have less trouble."

Just as I found something to cover the firewood in the yard, it suddenly started raining heavily.

Thunderstorms are coming at any time, and they are very heavy.

Jiang Zhiluo said worriedly: "What should I do? My father and third brother haven't come back yet."

 Xuanxuan also looked outside, seeming a little worried about his father and brothers and sisters.

It was raining heavily, and the door of the house was closed, and the rain was seeping in through the cracks in the door.

“I don’t have an umbrella at home, so I can’t pick them up.”

Xuanxuan crossed her little fingers and whispered: "Umbrellas are so expensive!"

 He knew that his parents wanted to buy an umbrella before, and the umbrellas at the market cost three hundred coins.

 Three hundred cash can buy a lot of food.

Even though Xuanxuan is only five years old, he understands prices and food.

Jiang Zhiluo couldn't help but think, "It's really inconvenient not to have an umbrella."

Most people in the village cannot afford to buy an umbrella. In fact, an umbrella costing several hundred pennies is too expensive for the villagers.

Even if you don’t need an umbrella, no one will buy one.

 With these copper coins, you can buy a lot of food.

 Everyone just doesn’t go out when it rains.

Ye started to boil hot water in a pot, thinking that when Jiang Xiangchuan and the others came back, they could take a hot bath to ward off the cold.

 She also quickly found everyone's change of clothes in the cabinet.

Jiang Zhiluo was lighting a fire at the stove, and Xuanxuan said, "Sister, I will blow the bellows for you. I know how to blow the bellows."

Jiang Zhiluo felt sorry for her younger brother and said, "You are still young. Don't tire yourself out. Sister can play the bellows."

“Sister, I will grow up quickly and I can help my sister.”

“Well, we Xuanxuan should eat well and be full, so that we will have strength.”

Jiang Zhiluo said to Mrs. Ye: "Mom, you can use the money I give you. If you don't have enough food at home, go buy food. Don't go hungry when your brothers and sisters are growing up."

Ye said: "Mom knows that now the family can make money every day, so she will cook more meals on weekdays."

Soon, Jiang Yunhua and Jiang Yunmian came back in the rain carrying backpacks.

 They were all wet.

When they saw Jiang Zhiluo, their eyes lit up and they were very surprised, "Sister."

 “Sister, you are back.”

The two people didn't care about being soaked by the rain, and talked happily around Jiang Zhiluo.

Jiang Zhiluo said with a smile: "You guys should take a hot bath and change into clean clothes. Don't catch a cold."

“Don’t worry, we’ll talk later.”

Jiang Yunhua and Jiang Yunmian then went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Jiang's courtyard is larger and has more rooms. There is a room specially used for everyone to wash and bathe.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at the heavy rain outside, thinking that if it rained like this, she might not be able to go back tonight.

 I don’t know if my mother will be worried.

Jiang Yunhua and Jiang Yunmian came out soon. Jiang Yunmian said happily: "Sister, we recently sold the dandelions we dried at a medical clinic and made twelve cents."

“It’s just that Third Sister and I are not very good at identifying medicinal materials. If we can identify other medicinal materials, we can pick more medicinal materials..."

Jiang Yunmian was very excited to share some happy things with Jiang Zhiluo.

“Does the hospital collect a lot of medicinal materials?”
