Provoking the villain, madly criticizing the tyrant for kidnapping my sedan chair for the bridal cha
Chapter 39 The first pot of gold in her life was only enough to buy a pound of brown rice
"Brother is right!"
Lin Wenhui glared at Chen Juhua and suppressed the anger in his heart: "If you continue to cause trouble, I will divorce my wife directly without dividing the family!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Lin Xiaoxue quickly grabbed Chen Juhua's arm and said with tears in her eyes: "Mom, if you can't divorce your wife, just follow what grandpa said."
Seeing her daughter's aggrieved and pitiful eyes, Chen Juhua gritted her teeth and swallowed: "Okay, Lin Wenhui, you can do it!"
Lin Wenhui looked at Lin Wenyao and then at Lin Lixia with an apologetic expression. He wanted to apologize but didn't know where to start.
Lin Lixia did not want to embarrass Lin Wenhui, and was too lazy to argue with Chen Juhua about the private money she had hidden, let alone waste time arguing.
"Dad, let's move some rocks and build a wall."
When Chen Juhua heard this, she was as excited as a fighting cock: "Wei, we are going to do it today. I feel even more upset when I see you."
"...Close your eyes when your heart is blocked." Xu Taohua glared at Chen Juhua, pulled Lin Lixia and left: "Xia Xia, let's cook."
The Lin family's original kitchen was occupied by Chen Juhua.
The gentlemen of the Lin family, unable to do farm work due to the rain, simply built a new stove in the west wing of the house that Lin Lixia had set on fire.
Spacious and bright.
"Xia Xia, don't argue with people with shallow eyes." Xu Taohua started a fire skillfully and chatted to Lin Lixia while cooking.
"She is usually the most scheming. When the farming season comes, she will take your second uncle and cousins back to her parents' house to work."
"This time Xiaoman and Dahan went back to her parents' house to work. It has been almost 20 days, but she still hasn't called them back."
Lin Lixia knew Chen Juhua's plan.
Chen Juhua sent her half-grown child back to her parents' home to work, and the remaining work at home fell on Lin Wenyao, Lin Lidong, and Lin Lichun.
The gentlemen in the first house all care about face and don't care about others, and they don't like to care about such trivial matters with Chen Juhua.
Xu Taohua hopes that everything will be prosperous for her family and she is not a troublemaker. As long as Chen Juhua does not go too far, she will turn a blind eye.
As time went by, Chen Juhua became more and more arrogant.
The balance began to be broken when she, the foreign butterfly, refused to listen to Chen Juhua's fiddling.
Cannon fodder is unwilling to be a tool.
"Xia Xia, after the family separation, your father and your eldest brother are going to attend the autumn festival. Grandma wants to sell the pheasant to exchange for food for the winter."
Looking up at Xu Taohua with red eyes and guilt and caution in her expression, Lin Lixia couldn't say no.
The old man of the Lin family wanted to provide a scholar, so the old lady of the Lin family saved money every day and worried about the food rations for the winter.
"Change, I will go to the city with my eldest brother later."
After the meal, the old man of the Lin family packed the saved medicinal materials into cloth bags one by one and put them in Lin Lidong's backpack.
The old lady tied the live pheasant tightly and put it in Lin Lixia's backpack.
"In Lidong, keep an eye on Xia Xia after entering the city. You must not let our Xia Xia be abducted by a kidnapper."
"Xia Xia, you are good-looking, and kidnappers are most likely to target you. Follow your brother closely after entering the city, and don't talk to strangers casually."
The old lady's nagging instructions made Lin Lixia feel warm in her heart: "Grandma, I promise to be obedient and wait until you come back safely."
The rugged mountain road is very difficult to walk.
The brother and sister walked for two hours on the road from Linjia Village to Plum Blossom City. Lin Lixia's feet blistered as they walked.
The moment she saw the city gate, Lin Lixia was filled with anticipation and joy, but soon turned into disappointment after entering the city.
The Lin family boasted that Plum Blossom City was not as good as a Blue Star [-]th-tier town, and it was so dilapidated that she felt desolate.
Lin Lixia walked around and quickly understood the prices of commodities in this era.
One tael of gold is exchanged for ten taels of silver, one tael of silver is exchanged for one thousand cash, and one tael (guan) is equal to one thousand cash.
The purchasing power of one penny is equivalent to one dollar of Blue Star.
Things are rare.
In this era, food production was extremely low, and food prices were several times more expensive than Blue Star.
A pound of brown rice costs eight cents, a pound of coarse flour costs ten cents, a pound of polished rice costs thirty cents, and a pound of fine noodles costs 35 cents.
A pound of pork costs 35 cents, a white flour cake costs [-] cents, a vegetarian bun costs [-] cents, and a meat bun costs [-] cents.
On the streets where people come and go, white flour cakes sell better than plain steamed buns at the same price. The reason is that white flour cakes are more resistant to hunger.
After shopping around, Lin Lixia took the ten cents pocket money given by the old lady and was unwilling to buy anything.
Lin Lixia had always looked down upon the plain white flour pancakes that appeared in Blue Star's snack street, but they were very tempting to her here.
Traveling for two hours consumes a lot of energy.
Her stomach was growling from hunger, and she thought that the price of one white flour pancake was enough to cook a pot of brown rice porridge for the whole family.
She couldn't bear the money in her pocket.
She swallowed hard, touched the ten coins in her pocket, and secretly warned herself.
Don’t be extravagant until you find a way to make money.
"Xia Xia, if you want to eat, can we buy it?" Seeing that his sister wanted to eat white flour cake, Lin Wendong quickly took out five cents and said, "Here is a white flour cake."
"Only one?" The cake seller was surprised, and quickly grabbed a piece of white flour cake and handed it over: "It's hot, hold it tight."
Lin Lidong took the white flour cake, flipped it with his left and right hands twice, and then handed it to her when it was not too hot: "Xia Xia, eat it while it's hot!"
The warm white flour pancake warms your heart.
The sweet aroma of wheat made Lin Lixia taste happy and warm. She broke off the cakes piece by piece and ate them.
When she was two-fifths of the way through the meal, she forced out a burp and said, "Brother, you're full. You can eat the rest."
After traveling for so long, Lin Lidong was more tired and hungry than she was, and he was even more reluctant to spend money to eat alone than she was.
"Nonsense, how can this little cake hold up?" Lin Lidong saw through his sister's thoughts at a glance and had just finished his refusal.
Lin Lixia stuffed the remaining half of the cake into his mouth: "Brother, I'm too tired and have a bad appetite. Eat quickly."
Lin Lidong took the cake and was at a loss.
"Brother, eat quickly. After eating, let's go to the pharmacy."
Come out of the drug store.
Lin Lixia seemed to have been drained of her vitality. The old man of the Lin family had accumulated medicinal materials for several months, but only sold them for 220 thirty cents.
Just like at Blue Star, after working hard for several months, I only earned 220 yuan. Are you discouraged?
Seeing his sister go from being very excited to being dejected, Lin Lidong didn't know what was going on.
"Xia Xia, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother, how much can I sell for this pheasant?"
"You'll know in a minute." Lin Lidong put the money from selling medicinal materials close to his body and took his sister towards the game house.
The manager of the Game Hall was about forty years old. Lin Lidong called him Manager Li. He ate until his belly was bulging and he looked rich.
Seeing the pheasant jumping around, shopkeeper Li readily offered the price: "Normally I charge twenty cents per catty, but today I'll give you thirty cents per catty."
After hearing the price of thirty cents per pound, Lin Lixia gave up even the thought of bargaining and stood at the door of the 'Ke Laixian' game restaurant.
Looking at the customers eating in the store in a daze, could she be like the heroine in the farming novel and sell cooking recipes?
Thinking of this, she straightened her hair and walked towards the store. After looking around for a week, she was filled with disappointment.
In this era where only lard is used for cooking and salt is used for cooking, all the recipes she knows are a big joke.
"Xia Xia, the pheasant was sold for eighty cents." Lin Lidong looked at her with joy on his face: "Let's buy ten pounds of brown rice!"
Lin Lixia: "..."
No!
Her first pot of gold in life was only enough to buy ten pounds of brown rice?
Lin Wenhui glared at Chen Juhua and suppressed the anger in his heart: "If you continue to cause trouble, I will divorce my wife directly without dividing the family!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Lin Xiaoxue quickly grabbed Chen Juhua's arm and said with tears in her eyes: "Mom, if you can't divorce your wife, just follow what grandpa said."
Seeing her daughter's aggrieved and pitiful eyes, Chen Juhua gritted her teeth and swallowed: "Okay, Lin Wenhui, you can do it!"
Lin Wenhui looked at Lin Wenyao and then at Lin Lixia with an apologetic expression. He wanted to apologize but didn't know where to start.
Lin Lixia did not want to embarrass Lin Wenhui, and was too lazy to argue with Chen Juhua about the private money she had hidden, let alone waste time arguing.
