Chapter 11 Malting Begins

After saying that, Shen Xia took out copper coins from his pocket, took out ten coins and handed them to Uncle Yang.

When Uncle Yang saw it was ten cents, he quickly said, "Song's daughter-in-law, it doesn't take that much. Four cents for the two of you."

"No, Uncle Yang, we have so much stuff, more than the weight of two people. The most important thing is that you delivered it to our home and helped us unload it."

"Uncle Yang, don't you think it's too little?" Shen Xia said deliberately.

"There are already a lot of things there. I'm sorry to charge you so much. We are all neighbors, so it's normal for you to bring some things." Uncle Yang explained.

"Uncle Yang, please accept it! I will need your help in the future. If you don't accept it, I will be embarrassed to ask you for help next time."

In the end, Uncle Yang felt too embarrassed to refuse after hearing what Shen Xia said, so he had to accept it: "If the Song family's daughter-in-law needs anything next time, just come to me."

"no problem."

At this time Song Ming poured the water.

Uncle Yang picked it up and drank it in one gulp.

So he left the Song family happily.

Song Jiang was watching the conversation between Shen Xia and Uncle Yang.

发现

Shen Xia has changed

When I first came here, I wasn't as open and confident as I am now.

Could it be that he really figured it out?

Song Jin was listening to their conversation nearby.

I can't help at all.

After Uncle Yang left, Shen Xia came back at noon to see that Mother Song had already prepared the meal.

I ordered some clear porridge with some vegetables picked from the yard.

The mushrooms I picked in the mountains yesterday.

Song's mother didn't know how to do it and didn't dare to move.

Then Shen Xia took out the buns she had bought earlier and heated them up.

Let’s eat together.

Everyone looked at the steaming buns on the table with envy.

I haven't eaten meat for almost a month. My brother wasn't injured before.

Occasionally a bit fishy.

while eating

Looking at the clear porridge in front of them, which was so clear that it reflected a person's shadow, while in his own bowl, he could only see the rice grains.

It’s not hard to see that the whole family favors me.

Shen Xia has always been a grateful person. Seeing that the Song family has become so poor, he doesn't want to suffer any loss.

It would be a lie to say that I am not impressed.

So Shen Xia wanted to make more money to repay the Song family for rescuing the original owner from the Shen family.

If it weren't for Song's mother, who knows how the Shen family would exploit Shen Xia.

Maybe she would even marry a widower for money.

Song's mother took out two taels of silver from her bosom and handed it to Shen Xia: "Xia Xia, you bought so many things today, and this is all the silver I have. Take it."

Shen Xia looked at the two taels of silver in Song's mother's hand.

He was very touched. There were several people in his family who were taking medicine, and Song's mother was willing to give him all the money.

I think he trusts himself very much: "Mom, you put it away yourself."

As he spoke, he took out a silver note from his bosom and handed it to Song's mother: "Today I sold 40 taels of ginseng, and I spent a few taels of silver on buying things. Here is a 30 tael silver note, keep it for yourself."

"So many," Song Jin said in surprise.

Song Jiang was also surprised, thinking that it would be good if he could sell it for more than twenty taels.

Song Yu was very happy because his family had money now.

Shen Xia went on to say: "From now on, you will be the head of the family. Any extra money in the house will be kept with you. You can keep these thirty taels."

"I spent a few taels of silver on buying these grains today, so I'll carry some silver with me for future use," Shen Xia arranged.

Mother Song was still shocked as she watched the two taels of silver in her hand turn into thirty-two taels.

What a wonderful wife he married. She is so powerful. I must make sure these bastards at home treat her better.

Such a kind and generous daughter-in-law is really hard to find even with a lantern.

Song Ming looked at his mother who didn't dare to accept it and said, "Please accept it, Mom! My wife doesn't like others to oppose her decision."

Song Ming, what you said.

In the end, Song's mother couldn't resist and accepted the money: "Xia Xia, this money is yours. I'll save it for you. If you need anything, just tell me and I'll give it to you."

"Okay." After that, everyone happily ate lunch together.

"Sister, why did you buy so much food?" Song Yu asked.

Everyone actually wanted to ask, but no one asked. Now Song Yu asked it.

Everyone looked up at Shen Xia.

Shen Xia looked at everyone and said: "Wheat, soybeans and glutinous rice are used as food, and the others are brown rice for everyone to eat."

"It's such a waste to buy so much brown rice."

I know that Song's mother is not blaming me, but is feeling sorry for me spending money.

Shen Xia didn't get angry and explained: "Let's not talk about the brothers for now, let's talk about the fifth child. He is growing now, how can he not have enough to eat? He is shorter than children of the same age now, what if he doesn't grow taller in the future."

After saying this, Song's mother looked at Lao Wu and felt guilty. This was her youngest child, and his father passed away when he was only a few years old.

Even when times were the hardest, I still didn't read.

"Plus, several of my brothers are in poor health and are now recovering from their injuries. If they don't eat something good, what if they get sick in the future?"

Song's mother thought, that's right, what if she gets sick and can't have children?

"Besides, I am counting on my brother to recover and work for me, and we can do some small business together. Our lives will definitely get better and better."

"Okay, I'll follow Xia Xia's arrangements from now on."

"Um,"

After dinner, Song's mother washed the dishes and then lit a fire in the kitchen. She asked Song Jin to light the fire while she cut the pork fat and refined the oil.

I thought I would need this kind of winnowing basket for making malt sugar and raising silkworms, so I asked my elder brother to weave some more winnowing baskets.

And he took out thirty kilograms of wheat and distributed them all.

Then take out the linen cloth you bought earlier and cut it into a piece as big as a dustpan.

Put it on a winnowing basket, and then take out all the foamed wheat and hang it on the winnowing basket to dry.

The shelf has been made and is placed in Shen Xia's room. Now there is a winnowing basket on the shelf with silkworm cocoons in it.

Thirty kilograms of wheat were spread out, which was a lot, and all of it was used up on the shelf.

Song Ming was standing by and watching what Shen Xia did.

In fact, he wanted to help, but Shen Xia wouldn't let him, saying that he should just watch first and he could do it after his hand got better, and there would be plenty of time.

Song Yu and Shen Xia work together.

The shelves are all full.

Fortunately, Song Jiang’s skills are fast.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to accomplish so much today.

After watching the cleanup completed.

Because there are two shelves in the room, it seems impossible to make a small bed.

The three of them had no choice but to sleep together.

After the house is renovated, each person will be given a room.

After being busy for two hours, I felt quite tired, so I thought of taking a nap first.

Song Yu watched Shen Xia go to sleep

So he went out quietly and closed the door.

Watching Song Yu go out.

I was just thinking about my own space and I need to study it further.

Then he locked the door from the inside.

People from outside can't come in.

Lie in bed, close your eyes

Come back home

When you open your eyes, you will see your modern home.

Very clean and hygienic.

When I opened all the doors, they were the same as before, but the last time I came in, the room was just clean but not all the furniture was covered.

That means someone can come in here.

I just can’t get out by myself.

I walked to the bathroom and looked into the mirror, but there was no one inside.

It seems that it was my spiritual consciousness that came in.

To try and see if I can get in touch with my family.

After all, only parents know the password of my house.

Shen Xia went to her study and got out paper and pen.
