The rice porridge at night was so thick that it was impressive.
But there was no smile on Su Ruyi's face.
"I'm going to ask Hu Langzhong to prepare the antidote for him. Mom, please send the money for the medicine to Hu Langzhong tomorrow. Prepare more. The antidote is not cheap."
Zhang's face twitched, but she was still worried that something might happen, so she asked, "How much is it?"
Su Ruyi: "Let's prepare 100 coins first."
"ah--!"
Mrs. Zhang stood up with a loud shout: "I haven't even sold it for that much money!"
The water is cheap, and because it is poisonous, it is even cheaper. It only sold 30 fen in total. Do you have to spend 100 fen to buy medicine?
"Old Man Hu is not kind, why do you have the nerve to charge such a high price! I will go to him to argue with you tomorrow!"
Su Ruyi drank the porridge with an expressionless face: "That's life-saving medicine. Is 100 Wen expensive? There are nearly 40 people in the two households. Isn't it worth 100 Wen?"
Mrs. Zhang sat down with a pale face. It's really not expensive to say this...
Liu Cui'er kept her luck and said loudly: "How can you be so pretentious? Nothing will happen! The medicine will definitely not be used. I will ask them to get it back tomorrow. Brothers and sisters, you are just here to scare people!"
Su Ruyi still had no big expression: "Let's just pray that we don't need it. That's the best. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."
"What did you do? You finally got some money back and then paid it back. It's so troublesome!"
"Yes, where could there be such trouble in the first place? What can I do if I have to find this trouble myself?"
Mrs. Zhang: "...Su Ruyi, don't be so yin and yang!"
Su Ruyi put down the bowl and chopsticks: "Mom, I told you today that I am in charge, and I told you not to have the internal organs, but you refused to listen! How much is the water worth? Do you have to keep saying this to feel happy?"
After saying that, he didn’t care so much, got up and went back to the house.
The adults and children at the table were left looking at each other.
Mrs. Zhang: "Is this the way she talks to her mother-in-law?!"
Liu Cuier: "Mom, her attitude towards you was even worse before!"
Zhang's face darkened and she slapped the table hard.
No one dared to speak or move.
After a while, Mrs. Zhang got tired and said, "What are you doing here in a daze? After cleaning up, go to bed and go to work in the fields tomorrow!"
"oh--"
Everyone started to move. The children got off the table. Da Lang was not used to it. In the past, after everyone finished eating, the pigs were cooked. It was time for him to feed the pigs...
The two daughters-in-law put the dishes and chopsticks back into the kitchen together, and Mrs. Zhang sat at the table for a while before going back to the house.
Liu Cuier looked away from the door and said dissatisfied: "This Su Ruyi, I'm scared to death!"
Li Baozhu: "..."
This is the first time I wash dirty dishes in clean water, which is a bit weird. After washing, I habitually pour the dirty water into the swill bucket.
Liu Cuier sighed: "Just empty the yard, there are no pigs to feed..."
The sadness spread immediately.
The Lu family didn't sleep well that night.
After Su Ruyi returned to her house, she went to the space. The space where vegetables were planted became more green and looked more energetic.
She went around the field and found that there was nothing in the small patch of land where the mushrooms had been planted. It seemed that the freedom of the mushrooms was lost.
She decided that the next time she went to pick mushrooms, she would not pull them out, but dig out the soil where the mushrooms grew. She didn't believe it anymore and had to grow mushrooms in space.
Inside the cabin were small piles of vegetables. Just looking at them made her very satisfied. Su Ruyi took a cabbage and sat at the door, stroking it.
You can't expect the money from your mother-in-law to be in your own hands, so you have to earn the capital yourself. Selling vegetables is a business, but it can't be done for a long time, for fear that clues will be discovered and it will be difficult to explain.
Once you have saved enough capital, you can set up a stall. You don’t have to move around, and you can get the money openly.
The cost doesn't need to be much, it's enough to customize a small car and buy a small iron pot.
Although Ping'an Town is a big town, it is still a small town with limited purchasing power. If you want to collect the capital in the town, it will take several days anyway, and there is the risk of being encountered by fellow villagers. It is better to go to a big place to collect the capital at once. return.
Then you have to go to Tongzhou.
The original owner of Tongzhou had never been there, so Su Ruyi could only dig out the name from his memory.
Tongzhou City is a big place, actually not far from Xinghua Village. It's just that Fucheng is different from the town. The city walls are high, and the city gates are guarded by soldiers all day long. They charge ten coins to enter the city. People living in the village are naturally more willing to go to the town than to the Fucheng.
This was perfect for Su Ruyi. No one knew her in a strange big city, so wouldn't that be a good place for her to perform?
Su Ruyi, who didn't have an alarm clock, accidentally fell asleep again. Without her, she stared at the morning rice porridge and turned it into the original clear soup.
Su Ruyi sat down, glanced at the bowl, and said: "In the future, I will add an extra bowl of rice every time I cook. If we eat like this every day, our bodies will not be able to bear it."
Liu Cuier cooked the rice this morning, and she even checked it out. There was a lot of extra food in the rice vat in the kitchen, but she couldn't help but eat two bowls at a time, right?
She looked at her mother-in-law.
Although Su Ruyi said she was in charge of the family, she didn't take it seriously. Her mother-in-law still had the final say in this family.
Mrs. Zhang didn't squint much all night, for fear of someone knocking on their door. At this time, she was chewing black steamed buns with dark circles under her eyes, and her voice was neither loud nor weak: "How can you buy food for the family if you eat like this?"
Su Ruyi picked up her chopsticks and said as she should: "I am the head of the family, so of course I have to take care of the food at home."
Mrs. Zhang raised her head and said, "I won't give you the money from selling the pig."
Su Ruyi: "How long will that little money last? Mom, just take it if you want."
Everyone stopped eating and looked at her in confusion. Liu Cuier asked: "Then how can you have money to buy food?"
"Earn, of course you have to earn money, it won't fall from the sky. In short, from now on, I will eat two bowls of rice every time." She looked at the empty soup noodles, "Eat some oil with every meal. You can eat it after you buy it."
Just as he was talking about this, someone outside the courtyard gate shouted: "Aunt Lu, are you up?"
Mrs. Zhang shivered and heard that she had bought some water yesterday.
Su Ruyi put down her chopsticks and went to open the door. The old couple of the Qiao family stood at the door of the courtyard. When they saw Su Ruyi, the old aunt of the Qiao family changed her attitude from last night and smiled brightly. She enthusiastically came over to hold Su Ruyi's hand.
"Ruyi, my uncle and aunt came here early in the morning to thank you! It was our fault last night, we couldn't figure it out, and let down your good intentions. Don't take it to heart!"
"Brother Qiao, what's wrong? Last night you..."
Mrs. Zhang's heart was still pounding and she hurriedly came to greet him.
"Alas!" Aunt Qiao slapped her thigh with a sad look, "We were fine last night. Our Zhuzi complained of stomachache not long after eating, and then developed a fever. It was scary. Fortunately, your Ruyi and Baozhushuang After the medicine came over, we immediately made a bowl of warm water, held the pillar and drank it through our noses, vomited, and stopped yelling afterwards. It was completely fine this morning!"
When Mrs. Zhang heard this, her mouth trembled: "What are you doing for your children to eat? The pillars are so small...Thank God, how can I be worthy of you--!"
