Chapter 288 Very Regretful
Seeing that everyone was happily lining up, Li Qingxiu stood up and wanted to go to Widow Jia to collect the supplies. When the money was distributed just now, Li Qingxiu did not come to her to collect it.
It was because Widow Jia told Li Zheng in front of everyone that she would not help Gongzhong grow leeks, so Li Zheng would not give the money to Widow Jia.
As soon as Li Qingxiu took a step, she heard Li Zheng shouting: "Qingxiu girl, where are you going? Come on, come on, you can be the first to get it."
Li Qingxiu looked at the long queue and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, the queue has been formed. You can give it to everyone first. I will ask Aunt Jia to come and get the supplies."
Li Qingxiu looked upright but did not obey Li Qingxiu. "Oh, it's okay. Come and get it quickly, and get Widow Jia's share by the way, so you don't have to make an extra trip."
The first person in line was Li Zheng's daughter-in-law Zhao Cuihua. She was ranked first because she was pushed to the top by the women behind her.
Seeing her man say this, Zhao Cuihua also smiled and said: "You girl, your uncle has said so, so just come and get it."
Li Qingxiu saw that Li Zheng and Zhao Cuihua were so enthusiastic and couldn't shirk it anymore. So, she walked up to Zheng Zheng with a smile and said softly: "Thank you, Uncle Li Zheng and my mother-in-law."
Li Zheng gave the three sisters Li Qingxiu thirty kilograms of rice, thirty kilograms of white flour, three pickled rabbit meat, three salted grass carp, three kilograms of coarse salt, three kilograms of sugar, and a piece of fine cotton cloth.
The people in the queue at the back were envious of this good material. Of course, they were just envious and didn't say anything offensive.
Li Zheng was afraid that everyone would think too much and explained loudly: "Look at the many good things I have given to the pretty girl, so don't be jealous or have any random thoughts.
You should also think about it carefully. Without the pretty girl, would everyone be able to live such a good life now? If there weren't enough supplies, I should give more to the pretty girl. "
After hearing what Li Zheng said, everyone said they didn't think much about it, and some even asked Li Zheng to give Li Qingxiu more points. Li Qingxiu couldn't help but feel warm in her heart after hearing Li Zheng's words.
Li Zheng gave Widow Jia three kilograms of rice, five kilograms of black noodles, half of pickled wolf meat, a three kilograms of dried salted grass carp, one kilogram of salt, one kilogram of sugar, ten feet of linen cloth, and a large Chinese cabbage.
When everyone saw the supplies that Li Zheng gave to Widow Jia, they had a good idea. It is estimated that the supplies given to them were similar.
Li Qingxiu couldn't help but twitching at the corners of her mouth when she looked at the obviously different items. She wanted to say something, but Zhao Cuihua beat her to it.
"It's hard to carry so many things without a bamboo basket. This bamboo basket is for you to put in." Zhao Cuihua said while helping to put items into the bamboo basket.
Li Zheng glanced at his wife with satisfaction and said to Li Qingxiu: "Okay, you are a famous powerful king in our Lihua Valley. We won't help you take them back. You can take these home quickly. It looks like it’s going to snow again today.”
Knowing what Li Zheng and his wife meant, Li Qingxiu said nothing more. She picked up the bamboo basket and said goodbye to everyone before returning home.
As soon as Li Qingxiu entered the yard, she smelled the aroma of rice and looked at the smoke rising from the chimney. It was probably Widow Jia cooking in the kitchen.
Li Qingxiu opened the kitchen door and saw Widow Jia sitting on a small stool washing chives. Widow Jia was also startled by the sudden sound of opening the door.
Seeing that it was Li Qingxiu, Widow Jia felt a little guilty and said: "Qingxiu, Xiaofeng said he was hungry when he came back from school. I don't know when you will come back. I saw that there was rice and leeks in the kitchen, so I started cooking. .”
Widow Jia naturally felt guilty, because after all, this was someone else's home. Although Li Qingfeng had agreed, she still felt guilty when facing Li Qingxiu.
Li Qingxiu actually didn't think anything of it. After all, it was Qingfeng Li who was hungry and Widow Jia was the one who knew how to cook.
"Auntie, stop washing the vegetables and come to the house first. Li Zheng and the others are back. They just divided the money and food. I'll bring your share as well."
Upon hearing this, Widow Jia stood up immediately, her wet hands not forgetting to wipe her apron. "Okay, I'll go there now."
At this time, Li Qingfeng was playing with Li Qingxiao in the room. When he saw Li Qingxiu coming in carrying a bamboo basket of things, he picked up Li Qingxiao to see what his sister was carrying back.
Widow Jia, who was behind, also followed into the house carrying a lot of things in her hands.
Qingfeng Li's eyes widened when he saw the half-dried wolf meat in Widow Jia's hand.
"Sister, did you steal the wolf meat from Gongzhong's cellar?" Li Qingfeng had always known that there was a lot of wolf meat in Gongzhong's cellar, and it was all dried like this.
Li Qingxiu glanced at Qingfeng Li speechlessly. "Your sister, am I this kind of person?"
After she finished speaking, she told Li Zheng and the others how they went to sell leeks and how they distributed all the materials in the public school equally to each household after they came back.
When Widow Jia heard that a pound of leeks could be sold for a hundred taels, she felt extremely regretful. Why didn't she grow some of them herself? If she had planted them in a cellar, she could have sold them for dozens of taels.
Thinking that there was still half a kilogram of leeks in the wooden basin in the kitchen, Widow Jia felt extremely distressed and asked: "Dear niece, can the washed leeks be sold again? If I had known that these leeks could be sold at such a high price, I would have Just eat less.”
Li Qingxiu looked at Widow Jia's distressed look and couldn't help but said with a smile: "Auntie, you don't have to be like this. The leeks in the cellar will continue to grow, and it doesn't have to be as long as the waiting time before."
Widow Jia felt much better after hearing this, but she still said: "Then I won't wash half of the leeks, and I will sell them next time."
Qingfeng Li also felt that what Widow Jia said was right, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, half a catty of leeks is worth fifty cents."
After Qingfeng Li and Widow Jia finished speaking, they looked at Li Qingxiu. They thought Li Qingxiu had the same idea as them, but Li Qingxiu refused.
"No, you have to eat these leeks. Because we are not going to Shinshu tomorrow, the leeks have been soaked in water and will spoil easily if you don't eat them."
Li Qingxiu looked at the regretful and distressed expressions of the two of them and took out ten taels of silver from his body and gave it to Widow Jia.
Widow Jia was stunned and said with some disbelief: "This was given to me by Li Zheng? Isn't it two hundred taels? Why did you give me so much silver? Besides, I didn't plant leeks in the Gongzhong cellar. "
"I gave this to you. Didn't you help my family grow two cellars of chives? I got sixty taels of silver, so naturally you also have a share of this silver."
The reason why Li Qingxiu dared to say that she got sixty taels was because the sixty taels had already passed everyone's eyes, so there was no need to hide it anymore.
When Widow Jia heard that it was the reward given to her by Li Qingxiu, she was very happy to accept it. She felt very regretful in her heart because eight points of the twelve taels had been removed.
