Chapter 34 Ironing

Mrs. Cui will now think of Zhiluo saving people in the town in the morning.

 Her daughter-in-law has a really good temperament.

This saved two people in a row.

Mrs. Cui smiled and said: “My Zhiluo is really good. Ever since she got married to Hejin, life at home has been obviously much better, and my mood has also improved accordingly.”

 What Mrs. Cui said is the truth.

Mr. Zhu has a good relationship with Zhi Luo’s mother, Mrs. Ye, so naturally she wants to help Zhi Luo speak up.

At this time, seeing Mrs. Cui looking very satisfied with Zhi Luo, and her expression didn’t seem to be fake, Mrs. Zhu felt relieved.

Mrs. Cui followed the words and said that she came here to buy beets, and she would charge one penny per catty according to the market price.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhu’s eyes suddenly widened and she asked in disbelief: “Sister Cui, don’t lie to me. Are you talking about harvesting beets?”

Their family planted some beets, and the harvest was good. She harvested a lot of beets, and she planned to go to town to sell some of them to support her family.

I didn’t think that the money of beets was not too much for a pound.

 You may not be able to sell anything even if you stay in town all day.

After a few times, she simply stopped going to town and left the beets at home for her own consumption.

But now that the weather is getting warmer, it’s not good to leave these beets uneaten.

She thinks beets are delicious when cooked, but if she eats them every day, she will get enough.

 So when Mrs. Cui mentioned the acquisition, she was really happy and wondered if she had heard it wrong.

Mrs. Cui said with a smile: “I usually take good care of you, and I can’t thank you enough. I can’t tell you lies, they are all true.”

“I don’t want to buy beets, so I want to come to your place first.”

Mrs. Zhu beamed when she heard this. As a member of the Li Zheng family, if anyone in the village has something to do, they will naturally help.

 Furthermore, she also liked Mrs. Cui’s temperament and felt sorry for her, so she couldn’t help but help her more.

 I don’t mean anything at all, but at least I am known to be a good person, and I feel good about it.

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Mrs. Zhu said cheerfully: “How much do you want to buy? I’ll go to the cellar to get it.”

　　Her two sons, the head of the house, have gone to work in the fields, so she is the only one at home who can go to the cellar to get things.

　　This is the slack time for farming. In a while, when food and vegetables will be planted, she will also go to the fields to help work.

 During this time, she was growing some vegetables in the vegetable patch in the yard.

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, “How much can you sell?”

Ms. Zhu opened her eyes wide and said in shock: “Is it possible that you receive as much as I sell?”

 Although he was shocked, Mr. Zhu couldn’t help but be a little excited.

 Beets and cabbage are both highly productive and are grown in every household, but they are not worth much.

 She grew a lot of beets.

　　How much money can be made if all these are sold? Zhu thought about it and became excited.

Mrs. Cui said without any ink, “Take them all.”

 Zhu smiled with her teeth exposed and said, “Wait, I’ll go to the cellar to get it.”

Nearly every household in the village has a cellar dug in a kang hole to store vegetables.

The cellar is warm in winter and cool in summer, but I am afraid that the cold weather in winter will freeze the vegetables.

Mrs. Cui said: “Let me give you a piece of it.”

 Zhu didn’t refuse either.

 Zhu took Mrs. Cui into the house.

Mrs. Zhu entered through the small hole under the kang, went down step by step, and then took out a sack of beets.

Mrs. Cui helped hold it at the entrance of the cave and took it out.

 Then Zhu took some more.

 Zhu’s family happened to have a weighing scale, and when we weighed it, we found a total of one hundred and three kilograms.

“Sister Cui, I took all this out.” Madam Cui was stunned, “Don’t you keep some for home?”

Zhu said with a smile: “I still have cabbage and radish at home. I can’t eat anything but beets.”

Beets can be sold for money, and Zhu is eager to sell them all quickly so that she can make money to support her family.

 Beets are valuable, so they naturally won’t eat them.

 Even something as delicious as eggs, because they can be sold for money, every household is reluctant to eat them, so they save the money they can sell to support their families.

 It is impossible not to live a good life.

Mrs. Cui thought the same thing.

 She also had the same idea as Mr. Zhu.

Mrs. Cui smiled and said, “Yes!”

Mrs. Cui gave Zhu one hundred and three.

 Zhu didn’t ask for the three cents, “Just erase the change.”

 “One size equals one size.” Mrs. Cui felt that she could not take advantage.

Zhu said cheerfully: “Look, you have collected so many beets from me. You should wipe out the fraction. If I go to the town to sell them, I can’t sell them at a high price. Maybe I will buy a pound of them.” If you give me a pound, you may not be able to sell it, so don’t be polite to me.”

Mrs. Cui no longer hesitated.

 Because there are a lot of things, Mrs. Zhu and Mrs. Cui cannot carry them.

Mrs. Zhu pushed out the cart at home, put the beets on it, and helped Mrs. Cui send it back.

As soon as she arrived at the door, Mrs. Zhu smelled a strong fragrance.

　　Smelling this fragrance, Mrs. Zhu felt that her saliva was about to flow out.

However, she refrained from asking or going in. She helped Mrs. Cui move her things down and hurried back.

Mr. Zhu knew that although there were many households in the village, everyone lived in poverty, and they were reluctant to make delicious food on weekdays.

 Even if it’s delicious, it’s only a little.

If she asked, Sister Cui and Zhi Luo would inevitably get some for her out of respect for their face.

  She can’t do that. It’s not easy for everyone, so she can’t take advantage.

 She was also very happy when she got a hundred coins, and she couldn’t hold back the smile on her face.

The eldest son is already sixteen years old and has reached the age to marry. If he saves a little more, he can find a wife for the eldest son.

The conditions in their Donghe Village are not very good, and many girls are unwilling to come to Donghe Village.

Even if their family is upright, there is no advantage. Money is still useful. If you give more betrothal gifts, you can help the eldest son find a virtuous and good wife.

She didn’t care about anything, she just thought that her daughter-in-law would be more diligent and live a good life with her son.

 Having children, she can also help take care of them.

Thinking of that scene, the smile on Zhu’s dark face deepened.

 …

When Jiang Zhiluo was peeling beets in the yard, she heard the noise outside and hurried out to help Mrs. Cui move the beets in.

“Mom, you collected so much in such a short time?”

Looking at these beets, Jiang Zhiluo seemed to see a pile of sugar and was very happy.

Mrs. Cui said: “This light was collected at your Aunt Zhu’s house, and your Aunt Zhu also wiped out three kilograms…”

Mrs. Cui told Jiang Zhiluo in detail.

“I thought your Aunt Zhu would ask us why we bought so many beets, but your Aunt Zhu didn’t ask anything.”

Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said: “Aunt Zhu is very sensible, and she generally doesn’t like to inquire about other people’s affairs.”

 It is also because Uncle Li Zheng and Aunt Zhu have good temperaments, are good at doing things, and are very prestigious in the village.

Jiang Zhiluo looked at these beets and said, “Mom, let’s collect these first this afternoon and boil these beets for brown sugar.”
