Chapter 29 29 Lead people to dig yam

   "Strictly calculate it. If you embroider ten purses, you can earn thirty-five cents. If you deduct the cost of entering the city, it will only be thirty-four cents."

   "We don't have any land, so I don't have to do the work in the field. I only have more time to do embroidery work. But even so, I can embroider at most two or three purses a day."

   "Hey, the main thing is that the eyes aren't as good as they used to be..."

   First, she had to do embroidery work for many years, and secondly, when her husband died, she cried a lot and hurt her eyes.

   "I guess, if you can earn three cents per pair of straw sandals, it will be much easier than doing embroidery."

   The main thing is that she sees her daughter-in-law making straw sandals quickly, and she can make a pair in about a quarter of an hour.

   This is different from her embroidery work. If she can find a fixed market, the work of weaving straw shoes can be regarded as a serious job.

   Qin Xiaoyao thought for a while, then turned to look at his mother-in-law again.

   Seeing his mother-in-law's expectant eyes, he finally nodded.

   "Sure. Then you can try."

   "But my father's meat stall may not be able to sell many straw sandals. So, even if you learn to weave straw sandals, you don't need to weave too many."

  Mainly, she didn't expect the mother-in-law to work hard to earn money for the family. Just let them do their best.

   "Okay!" Liu's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly responded.

   Immediately, he joined the team of weaving straw shoes.

   Even the little baby Song Ye came over when he saw that his mother, sister and sister-in-law were studying seriously.

   However, the three of them were unanimously disapproving of Song Ye's learning to weave straw shoes.

  Because the doll is indeed too young and not strong enough, even if he learns, he can't do well.

   So, Song Ye could only continue to be a millet bug at home.

  The three of them weaved straw sandals, and Liu Shi and Song Yun didn't stop until dusk.

   Because they have to cook.

   After half an afternoon of hard work, after weaving a few pairs of not-so-beautiful straw sandals, the mother and daughter have basically mastered the know-how of weaving straw sandals.

   Continue to practice a few more pairs, and it is estimated that you will be able to weave qualified straw sandals independently.

   Qin Xiaoyao ignored the mother and daughter and continued to work.

   While she is free today, she can weave a few more pairs of straw sandals. Starting tomorrow, she will have to go into the mountains.

   At that time, there will be less time for weaving straw shoes.

  Because Qin Xiaoyao said he wanted to eat egg pancakes, he also reminded him to make more.

  The Liu family didn't save the rough noodles tonight.

   Scooped out two and a half bowls of rough noodles from the noodle bowl, then mixed wild vegetables and wild eggs in, and then started pancakes.

   Qin Xiaoyao, who was busy under the eaves, soon smelled the fragrance of the fragrant noodles, and felt that life was warm and practical.

That night.

  After eating the egg pancake for dinner, Qin Xiaoyao reluctantly knitted the remaining straw into the last pair of straw sandals by the light of the fire in the stove.

   Then stop working.

   "The oil and salt on the stove, as well as the lamp oil at home are almost gone. When I go to the city tomorrow, I have to buy some and come back." As he stood up, Qin Xiaoyao muttered in a low voice.

   As soon as the fire in the stove goes out, the kitchen gets dark.

   The house where she and the beautiful husband are still fine, the oil in the oil lamp is not completely dry yet.

   But this kitchen, and the mother's house, can only rely on the moonlight.

   There are also oil and salt, which are the two most basic seasonings. If you don’t buy them back, you won’t be able to cook the next meal.

   In town today, she actually wanted to get these things back. But considering that she didn't have enough money on hand, and she had to pay for the doctor's visit, she didn't dare to buy it.

   Now that I have more money, I have to think about it.

   Liu Shi didn't hear what his daughter-in-law said, and smiled and asked Qin Xiaoyao to wash up quickly.

   On Song Que's side, Mrs. Liu had already asked Song Yun to send her eldest brother toiletries.

   "Mother, you can rest early when you're done. I'm going to take a bath." Qin Xiaoyao said.

   "Hey, alright." Mrs Liu smiled and left. It's not surprising that Qin Xiaoyao had only taken a shower yesterday, but he has to take a shower again today.

   Qin Xiaoyao went to the stove to get hot water and sent it to the hut, and then went to get a change of clothes before going to take a bath.

   When she finished washing out, the moon was already hanging in the sky, and the courtyard was silent.

   Back in the room, she immediately noticed that Song Que was looking at her.

   But she just pretended not to notice, did not light the lamp, went straight to the bedside, and lay on it.

   then turned over in the sound of "squeak", turned his back to Song Que, and closed his eyes.

  Song Que was a little dumbfounded when he saw this.

  This woman... Really ignores him?

   Feeling a little uncomfortable, Song Que frowned and turned over immediately.

  It's best to ignore it, that's what he wants!

   But this night, he actually lost sleep again. angry...

   Qin Xiaoyao still doesn't know about this.

   She got up early today because she had so many things to think about.

   When she got to the yard, she saw Song Yun helping her with the laundry again.

   He didn't say anything this time, he went straight to the kitchen to get water to wash up, and then helped Mrs Liu make breakfast.

   This time, Song Que didn't even care about it. After he ate breakfast, he went out with a big **** and sickle.

   I was worried that I might go out early this time, but from a distance, I saw Danny Li and Daniu Liu, who were holding tools and waiting for her at the foot of the back mountain.

With a smile on his face, Qin Xiaoyao hurried over.

   "Big girl, big cow! Good morning!" Qin Xiaoyao spoke first and said hello.

   "I'm not afraid of Sister Sanya, why don't you wait!" Li Da Niu replied awkwardly.

   said, and touched his man with his elbow.

   Liu Daniu also had an embarrassed smile on his face.

   "Yes. It's what Mrs. Song should wait for." He said.

  Qin Xiaoyao looked at Liu Daniel, and when he saw Liu Daniel's heart trembling, he looked away again.

   "Then let's go now." He said.

   The two quickly responded and followed Qin Xiaoyao.

   "Sister Sanya, what are we doing here?" Li Da Niu quickly asked Qin Xiaoyao.

   Seeing Qin Xiaoyao walking briskly ahead wearing straw sandals, he felt envy in his heart.

  I knew she was wearing straw sandals.

  Oh no, she doesn't seem to have straw sandals.

   Liu Daniu also followed his daughter-in-law and looked at Qin Xiaoyao in front.

  Yes, what exactly are you going to do? They had to pay them a hundred bucks.

   "When you get there, you will know." Qin Xiaoyao replied without explaining.

  Li Daniu and Liu Daniu shut up.

   After walking for a while, we finally arrived at the location.

   Qin Xiaoyao then stopped and began to explain the situation to the two of them.

   "Have you seen this piece of yam?"

   "That's it—" Saying that, Qin Xiaoyao tugged at the yam vine by the roadside.

   "There's something under this, what I want is under it."

   said, Qin Xiaoyao waved his hoe.

   After going down a few times, the ground was dug up, exposing the rhizomes of the yam.

   "Be careful when you dig, try not to break it." As he said, Qin Xiaoyao continued to dig hard.
