Chapter 15 Trading

After pondering for a while, he answered," so nanny li came here for this matter. Speaking of which, the gu family usually takes good care of my mountain. Since young master liked it, the amount of white rice that the lin family had should be sent to him. But this white rice is not from our family, but from a lonely old friend of mine.

He lived in the mountain hundreds of miles away, usually self-sufficient, this white rice is also watered and planted, the harvest is not much. Why don' t I go and ask tomorrow? If my old friend is willing to give way, I' ll ask Mrs. Zhou to send a letter back to the city, okay? "

Nanny li was a little disappointed, but old master lin's words were similar to what she had guessed. After all, lin dashan and his wife lived behind the gu mansion. They usually ate, drank, and wore clothes, and everyone saw it. How many times did the lin family send food? Most of the food was coarse grain. Fine flour was occasionally seen, but white rice was never seen. It was obvious that the lin family did not have paddy fields, so naturally, the white rice was not produced by the lin family.

She replied with a smile," well, I' ll have to trouble master lin then." No wonder this white rice tastes good. It turns out that it was drinking the spring and growing up in the wind. I will talk to our old lady after I go back. "

The lin family members laughed and agreed," indeed, I' ve gained a total of 50 catties. I' ve already eaten everything in a few days. The children at home are always making trouble. "

Nanny li took out a ingot of five taels of silver from her purse and said," now the price of white rice in the market is forty words and one catty. Our old grandma said to give three times the price. This ingot is a deposit. It is better to buy and sell it. If you don' t succeed, it will be a gift to master lin." "

"That won' t do," elder lin laughed and resolutely returned to the bank account." It's just a small matter of running a leg. If we can' t make it, we can still talk about it. How can we collect the deposit? Mammy, please take back the money, or I won't do it. "

Nanny li saw that old master lin did not look like he was being polite. The lin family, including Jiao Jiao, did not show any signs of greed. She felt a little more respectful, so she accepted the money and said with a smile," alright, I won' t be polite. I' ll go back and wait for news from master lin. "

"Take your time, nanny." Old master lin stood up but did not go out. Only the dong's and zhou xinxiu went to see the guests off.

Jiao Jiao took a few steps back, rolled his eyes, and pulled his grandfather's sleeve. He smiled and said," grandpa, this is a good deal. "

Elder lin reached out and knocked on his granddaughter, but his brows were furrowed." We don' t have a paddy field, so it's hard to hide the origin of this white rice. We can only find an excuse like this. Even if we sell it, we can' t sell it too much. It's still safe to be the first. "

"Grandpa has the final say. In any case, we will have money if we sell it. "

Jiao Jiao had been a bit greedy these past few days. Seeing that her family was full of food and had gained strength and flesh, but she still had no money to spend, she was anxious how to use her space to help her family become rich.

Unexpectedly, when she dozed off, a pillow fell from the sky and the gu family took the initiative to send money to the door. It was a good opportunity to test her skills.

Now that everything is in place, the harvest is all that remains.

As she spoke to her grandfather, she hurriedly collected rice in her space. However, perhaps it was because it was too exhausting. Seeing that the five mu of rice had been collected and the rice had been taken off and put into the granary in her space, she felt an indescribable sense of exhaustion surge into her heart ...

Mrs. Dong brought her daughter-in-law back with her. When she saw her granddaughter sliding down the chair like a bone, she was shocked. She took a few steps forward to hug her granddaughter and shouted," Jiao Jiao, what's wrong with you? Sleepy? "

Unfortunately, Jiao Jiao did not respond at all, and his face was deathly pale.

Even old master lin was anxious now, but he remembered what he had said to his granddaughter earlier. After a few guesses, he managed to calm himself down and tried to persuade her," I' m not afraid. Jiao Jiao may be tired. Put her on the kang bed and lie down. She' ll be fine in a while." "

Zhou xinxiu originally wanted to ask where the white rice came from at home. After all, she had been married to the lin family for seven or eight years. She had never known that her father had an old friend who grew rice in the mountains. However, when Jiao Jiao fell asleep, she had no intention of doing so.

Feng shi went to the garden to pick some vegetables and prepared to bring some back for her sister-in-law. She did not expect to see her daughter fainted again when she came back in a hurry. She was so scared that she threw the basket away and stood by the side of the kang, unwilling to leave half a step.

As a result, it was only day and night that Jiao Jiao woke up on the second day. She endured her dizziness and saw the family's expression. She knew that it had unintentionally caused her family to miss her again. Hence, she smiled guiltily, hoping that her family would forgive her.

However, she did not know that the old man and young master of the family had been in a state of great fear all day and night. The old man could not stand the feng family seeking death and crying. He simply said a few words about the mountain god's teaching. Although he did not say that all the changes in the family had come from Jiao Jiao, as long as he was not a fool, he would be able to guess it.

So, feng shi ran seven or eight times to the temple of the mountain and burned a lot of incense before she finally woke up. How could she bear to scold her?

"Jiao Jiao, mother doesn't eat white rice anymore. Don't scare me like this! "

Feng shi hugged her daughter and didn' t let go, causing the dong family to wipe away their tears. Zhou xinxiu and liu shi persuaded their sister-in-law to persuade her mother-in-law. They really wished they could open their mouths.

After all, old master lin's face darkened as he chased away the old and young ladies. Finally, he touched his granddaughter's head and asked with a glare," tell grandfather, are you tired of some kind of immortal technique?" "

Jiao Jiao stuck out her tongue and put her little hand on her dizzy head. She admitted honestly," grandpa, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so anxious to eat rice and fell asleep. "

The old man was both distressed and angry. "

"Grandpa, I was wrong. I really don' t dare to do it anymore. "

Jiao Jiao quickly hugged his grandfather's arm and acted coquettishly. In the end, he shouted that he was dizzy, so that he could avoid this scolding.

However, her crime was not in vain. In the storeroom of the small space courtyard, there were more than 100 bags of white rice, which weighed more than 10,000 pounds. Unfortunately, it was too eye-catching to sell it, otherwise it would really make a fortune ...

Three days later, when she got up early, zhou xinxiu followed her old snacks to a lamb noodle. She brought an apple that Jiao Jiao secretly stuffed into her arms. She was full of questions and took the cow carriage back to the city.

Old master lin and the dong family were left to sit under the tree to enjoy the cool. Speaking of their daughter-in-law, both of them nodded in agreement.

"Fourth, this wife of his has been well married. Not to mention filial piety and filial piety, she has the best plans in her heart. If it were her third wife, she would have asked him about it long ago. "

Dong shi sewed a new dress for her granddaughter, and the tip of a needle brushed across her scalp to relieve the itch. She casually complimented her daughter-in-law.

Elder lin smacked the pot of cigarettes and nodded. On the other hand, old san was unwilling to study at the beginning and was determined to do business. That was why he agreed with the wang family and thought that the yue family could help him. He didn' t expect that the wang family would be too petty now. However, as long as they treated old san well, we would take care of our grandson. If they didn' t touch the wang family, they wouldn' t be able to suffer any losses. "

"That's true. My third wife is not around. As long as her face is okay, I won't pick her. "

The dong family did not like their daughter-in-law, and they were worried about their son.
