Chapter 878
Seeing so many sweet potato slices, Ms. Liu thought it was quite good at first. But when Ms. Li said that these were all broken sweet potatoes, she immediately felt distressed: "Why are they broken? Can't you be more careful?"
?Look, there are so many, there won’t be many good ones..."
"Then don't worry, the number of sweet potatoes planted this year has doubled compared to last year, and there will be fewer damaged ones." Li said, "You didn't go to Mom's place to see, Mom's place is full of them, it's okay.
There are a lot of empty rooms over there, otherwise there would be no place to store them."
"It's really..." Madam Liu paused and glanced at Madam Li secretly several times.
Mrs. Li noticed something and asked doubtfully: "Second sister-in-law, why are you always staring at me? Is there something wrong with my face?"
I reached out and touched around, but couldn't find anything extra.
Mrs. Liu accompanied Smiley Face. She felt that Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Lin and the others would not come out so early, so she came closer and whispered: "How much money have you saved?"
"What?"
"Money," Mrs. Liu repeated, "I have dug so many sweet potatoes this year, harvested and sold them, and they all have to be transferred from your side. You must have a lot of accounts, right?"
"What are you thinking?" Mrs. Li was a little dumbfounded, "The public account belongs to the public, and mine belongs to me. These are two different things. Second sister-in-law, you don't think that I bought the land with my own money.
Did I make a fortune?"
It turned out that among the many acres of land purchased by the Zhu family this time, Li's own money paid for two or three acres to add to their four houses.
None of the other rooms are as "magnificent" as hers.
Originally, Madam Liu had no intention of buying the land herself, but was waiting for her mother-in-law to buy it and then share it with her later. Unexpectedly, Madam Li bought it, and she also started to think about it.
But unfortunately, she didn't have much money (part of it was sent back to her parents' home), and she couldn't bear to spend it all, so she only took out the money for one acre of land. She only had one acre of land, but four acres of land.
The house has two or three acres, how can she feel better?
The sour smell just came out.
"You bought so much land... How many people in our village can buy so much land at once?" Mrs. Liu naturally did not believe what Mr. Li said and said.
Li had no choice but to settle an account with her.
In fact, Mrs. Li really doesn't make much money. She has to take care of the accounts and the people who come and go. Unlike Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Lin, they can do something after finishing the work in their hands.
"Private work" to earn some private money. So the money she can get is basically the "commission" in their hands.
They are all members of her own family, and there are not many in the first place. It is impossible for her to raise the salary too high. It depends on the situation.
"Did you see that for the money you earn one share, I have to earn several shares to make up for it? Where does that much money come from? It's just that I earn less from one share and more from each share, which makes you feel that I earn more.
There are many, but actually none..."
When Mrs. Liu heard her calculation, she started to believe it: "It's really so little? Then you still work so hard?"
"What if it's not hard work? If I don't help with everything, what do you earn? Although it's just a small amount of money, it's a lot for everyone in our family together." Ms. Li said, "Everyone has something to earn, and everything is in our hands.
Isn't it a good thing to be able to get money? Like this time, although my mother contributed the bulk of the land at home, we also collected a little bit from each house, so wouldn't that mean we have more land? Even if we have to divide the family in the future, in addition to the land that my mother allocated to us
, plus we bought it ourselves, even if the business fails in the future, we can still support ourselves by farming."
Ms. Li thinks much more clearly than Ms. Liu, although she also wants to build a new house as soon as possible and separate her family.
But how can you miss such a good thing about buying land?
The house can be a little bit liveable, but whether there is an extra acre or two of land is related to whether she can fill her stomach in the future. She would rather live a little bit worse than not even be able to fill her stomach.
"I have two children now. If I don't prepare in advance, when they grow up, what land will I give them?" Li also mentioned the three treasures and the four treasures.
Mrs. Liu said: "What's the point? The four treasures are not yours. When the time comes, just let the third brother raise them by himself."
"That's what I say, but I raised both of them, how can I treat them differently? The one given by the third brother belongs to the third brother, and the one given by me belongs to me..." The fourth treasure was raised by Li himself, except
He was not born by her. How is he unlike her biological son?
To be honest, after Mrs. Li had raised her for a long time, she really couldn't bear to "wrong" this child.
She can give less to the four treasures, but she cannot give them nothing.
At the same time, Mrs. Li also mentioned that she only has two children now, and she will have more children later. If she doesn’t prepare in advance, wouldn’t it be troublesome if she has more children in the future and cannot find any space to share them with them?
"I don't have the skills of my mother-in-law. At such an old age, I can still make money with my sons and daughters-in-law..." Ms. Li said, "I can only live an ordinary life."
Mrs. Liu: "..."
——You can only make a small amount of money and live an ordinary life like this, so what should I do?
Suddenly she felt a little bit cold, feeling that she was not the material to make money, otherwise others could buy three or four acres of land, but she could only...
What made Ms. Liu even more uncomfortable was her natal family.
I don’t know who spread the word, letting her parents know that she paid for the land. They came to her one by one and asked: "Cui Cui, I heard that you bought the land? Where did you get so much money? You guys
Is the Zhu family really that profitable?"
After all, I just wanted to know how she earned all this money. I also suspected that she was not "filial" enough, and wanted to ask her to pay more.
"Cui Cui, your father and mother are old and not in good health. I don't know how many days they can sit still. Please go back to your parents' house to see them if you have nothing to do."
"Sigh... Don't be too 'stingy' when you go back to your parents' home. Otherwise, your brother and sister-in-law will see it and feel uncomfortable. We are all a family. You can't just make money for yourself and ignore them."
…
But Mrs. Liu didn't dare to tell Mrs. Li about this kind of thing, otherwise her usual secrets of giving money to her mother would be exposed.
Not to mention giving more, Mrs. Liu doesn't even want to give what she is giving now.
Mrs. Li knew how to save land for her son, how could she, a mother, be "bad"?
She quietly made a calculation in her mind. If she kept the money she gave to her parents' family and "saved" it for three or five years, she would definitely be able to save an acre of land.
Mrs. Li didn't know these things about Mrs. Liu. When she thought about the acres of land she was about to acquire, she felt as if she was floating on the clouds. She felt very comfortable.
Originally, she didn't have that much money, but when her parents heard that she could save money to buy land by herself, several people helped "scramble" some money without saying a word.
Her brother said: "We can make up this. You take it first. Every acre you can buy is an acre. I don't know if there will be this opportunity in the future. Grab what you can get your hands on first, and then you can buy more acre."
Life won’t be bad either.”
"Brother, does your sister-in-law know about this?" Li didn't take it immediately.
Although she went back to her natal family with the intention of "borrowing money", if her sister-in-law did not agree and she accepted the money, wouldn't she create conflicts with her natal family?
Mr. Li is not so "heartless" yet.
"I know, it was your sister-in-law who helped raise the money. Your sister-in-law has always been in charge of our family's money. Otherwise, where do you think I got so much money?"
Mrs. Li looked at the money in her brother's hand and felt that it was the same. With her brother's temperament, he really didn't seem to be able to manage money.
