Yunfei estimated that he only had about two or three taels of silver left in his pocket.
If you don't pay grain for six acres of land, you will have to pay a field tax of five taels of silver.
The tax on good land is high, while the tax on poor land is low, so it translates into about five taels of silver.
Although the field is rented out, he will not start planting until next spring, so he still has to pay the field tax this year.
Thinking of this, he felt that he might have to go into the mountains in the afternoon.
Otherwise, I'm afraid he will have to eat soft rice.
On the way back, there were more people than when we came in the morning. When he met someone he knew, Yunfei stopped and said hello.
Those who didn’t recognize him pushed the cart past like the wind.
The cart must be made strong enough, otherwise it would probably fall apart.
Back at the entrance of the village, the people chatting were still there. After all, there was no need to go back for lunch, and there was no talk of a lunch break.
However, Zhao Baozhu had gone back a long time ago. After all, everyone was a wife and they were all pregnant. It was definitely not possible to wait for dinner before going back.
Even if you help carry a bowl, at least you have an attitude.
…………
Yunfei glanced at it a few times as he passed by, and politely called out to some elders before pushing the cart home.
This is how the whole village is related to each other. You have to call someone when you go out for a few steps, otherwise they will say that you have no tutor, do not respect your elders, have your eyes too high, and so on.
If the rumors were allowed to fly for a while, it would probably take half a day for people nearby to spread the word that he looked down on his elders.
"I'm back, please open the courtyard door."
Several people who were pulling porridge heard it, and Zhao Baozhu ran the fastest.
She is fat but she is flexible.
So he quickly opened the door and shouted in surprise: "Ms. sir, you are coming back so early. Are you tired or thirsty? I'll get you some water."
The family used to drink well water, but Du Qingliu liked to drink warm water, so the pot at home always kept warm water.
The original person doesn't care about small things like this. As long as he doesn't have to do it, it doesn't matter.
There was no mother-in-law watching, so they were quite comfortable in the kitchen.
Bai Guihua has a kind nature and has never contradicted her sisters-in-law.
It's just that I'm a bit acquainted with life, so I'm not very close to them.
Yunfei parked the cart in the yard, took the water she handed over, and drank it all in one gulp.
Zhang Dujuan, Du Qingliu and Bai Guihua are helping to unload the pallet truck.
He went over to put down the heavy vat and rice, "Take the vegetables to the kitchen and cut them first. I'll cook them later. They will be broken later."
"Okay." Zhang Dujuan responded quickly and took the things to the kitchen.
Yunfei moved the cloth himself and brought it all to Du Qingliu's room.
He told her: "This is for making cotton clothes, and the white one is for the lining. You can make it after I buy the cotton in two days."
Now you can divide the fabric for the lining first, and there is no need to rush to make the children's clothes.
You should pay attention, there is no need to rush the work, I will not take over the work at the embroidery village for you. "
"Well, we all listen to my husband."
It turns out that these three daughters-in-law are like this, no matter what their husband says, they will obey.
After all, the result of disobedience is to be replaced. In this era, changing a wife does not cost money.
However, it is not easy to divorce your wife.
First of all, one must commit one of the seven rules of divorce, and then one must meet the three conditions before he can divorce his wife.
…………
After putting things in order, Yunfei didn't say anything when he saw that the beans had been soaked in the kitchen.
Originally, he was not going to make tofu these two days. If it were not a market day, his purchasing power would probably be much worse.
But now that we’ve soaked up everything, it’s not impossible to set up stalls at the morning market for a while.
Lunch was white porridge, and the vegetables were boiled wild vegetables, taken out and sprinkled with salt. Yunfei didn't pick any of them and drank two bowls.
Fortunately, after his education, I was obedient and put in more rice, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to get enough water.
"You guys share the snacks. I'll take a nap and go up the mountain in the afternoon. You guys should also take a lunch break."
Even if he takes a half-hour lunch break every day, his energy will be much better, so Yunfei always insists on taking a lunch break.
When he woke up in the afternoon, several women had gathered in Du Qingliu's room, probably discussing making clothes.
There is no need for him to make clothes in this plane, just waiting to wear them.
So I took my hoe and basket and went to the back hill of the village.
The main thing is to find herbal medicine. He was originally a scholar. If he hunted a tiger or something and carried it back, he would probably be very conspicuous.
So after thinking about it, I might as well forget it and see if there are any rare herbs or other picking spots. It doesn’t matter if I don’t have them, there are them in the space.
The main thing is to take a clear path.
It's too slow to make a fortune by selling gold and silver. It's better to get a windfall from heaven.
There were often people walking around, so Yunfei didn't see any herbs worth picking. Yunfei gradually walked into the mountains.
There are often rustling sounds in the grass, and I don't know if it's the wind blowing or some cute little thing passing by.
As long as he is not provoked, he does not want to take the initiative to do so.
After wandering in the forest for a long time, Yunfei discovered traces of several wild animals and harvested a pheasant and half a basket of various common herbs.
In the end, the smallest ginseng tree that could only be planted in the space was pulled out of the soil, and new ones were planted in it.
Even the smallest one looked to be a thousand years old. He frowned and considered it, then sighed and took back the space.
Forget it, it's too conspicuous.
If you come to a person who has lived for a hundred years, a hundred and eighty taels will be enough.
Such a big ginseng, all in human form, might bring some trouble.
Seeing that it was already afternoon and it was time to make dinner, he hurried home.
He took a lunch break after handling the dishes at noon, and he needs to go back and prepare them now.
After all, I really don’t want to eat boiled wild vegetables.
If you can't even satisfy your appetite, what fun is there in life?
Seeing him come home, Du Qingliu breathed a sigh of relief, "Husband, you are back. I don't know how to prepare this dish, so I didn't dare to touch it."
"It's okay, let me do it."
"Then I will help you light the fire."
"No, you cough, stay away from here and let Du Juan light the fire."
When Zhang Dujuan heard the call to her, she quickly came over with small steps, "Sister Du, go and have a rest. I'll come here."
"Baozhu, come and boil some anti-fetal medicine in a small pot."
"Okay, sir, I'm here."
The fat girl was so happy that she no longer had to poke her fingers there.
Making clothes is worse than chopping firewood.
It was just the inner garment, and she was too embarrassed to ask others to help her make it. The two sisters were both in poor health, so she had to make it herself.
"Today I went to town to get some anti-fetal medicine. I almost forgot about it. After it's cooked, Qingliu and Dujuan both drank a bowl. You just shouldn't drink it. There's nothing wrong with this medicine. It's better to drink less of it."
Zhao Baozhu said with a cheerful smile: "Don't worry, sir, I'm not jealous of this kind of thing. You don't have to count my share of the medicine."
This bowl of water is flat, so there’s no need for it! !
"My husband, you don't know something. Sister Baozhu is most afraid of hardship." Du Qingliu covered her mouth and chuckled.
