After unlocking the material space, I raised my younger siblings in a farmhouse.

As she took a bite, the syrup coating the surface of the hawthorn broke into pieces and mixed with the hawthorn flesh when she bit it, neutralizing the sour taste of the hawthorn, making it sweet and sour and delicious. She wanted to eat it again and again and couldn't stop at all.

"Is it tasty?"

"good to eat!"

Lin Sanya used to see the maids of the landlords often asking the buyers to bring back a few strings of candied haws. As time went by, she couldn't help but become curious about the taste of candied haws, and finally couldn't help but paid three cents to buy a string.

She has forgotten how she felt when she ate the candied haws. She only remembers that it was very sour, but that did not stop her from thinking it tasted good.

Although she had only eaten candied haws twice, Lin Sanya could say with certainty that the string of candied haws that Lin Chuyi gave her was the most delicious she had ever eaten.

"Well, that's the way it should be. Eat and drink as you should. Don't worry about money. Don't forget that you are still a child. If you worry too much, you won't grow taller."

Lin Sanya paused, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes, and she quickly lowered her head to prevent Lin Chuyi from noticing that something was wrong.

She had received too much information in the past two days and had been in a daze. She didn't know what to do and could only follow Lin Chuyi's arrangements.

When she was at home during the day, she thought about what to do in the future. Although her second sister sounded so relaxed, as if everything was under control, her second sister was younger than her. How could she put all the burden on her alone?

As the eldest sister, it is her natural responsibility to take care of them.

But now the second sister told her that she was also a child. Yes, she was only a thirteen-year-old child.

Lin Sanya blinked, held back her tears, smiled at Lin Chuyi, and raised the candied haws in her hand to show Lin Chuyi.

"Got it. I'll eat well."

Lin Chuyi nodded with satisfaction.

"now it's right."

Lin Sanya suddenly felt something was strange.

No, what's wrong with the tone of the second sister when she is scolding the younger sister?

Lin Sanya frowned and looked at Lin Chuyi with a strange look, emphasizing a fact.

"I am the older sister."

Lin Chuyi looked at her sister who was almost a head taller than her, and then she remembered her current identity and couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, yes, everything you said is right."

Lin Sanya looked at her second sister in this state and felt that she had recovered 10% of her strength. She swept away the previous depression and straightened her back a little more.

She knew that her second sister would come back for dinner in the evening. She thought that her second sister had been running around outside all day and consumed a lot of energy, so she cooked white rice in the evening and prepared three dishes, two meat dishes and one vegetable dish.

One of the meat dishes was naturally the braised pork that Lin Chuyi had reserved, and the other was scrambled eggs made with the eggs given by the villagers.

Most of the villagers' eggs were sold for money, and among the gifts that Lin Sanya and her friends received in return, not many were eggs.

Lin Sanya fried two eggs in total, leaving half for Lin Chuyi, and sharing the remaining eggs among the three siblings.

Another dish is stir-fried cabbage, which is fried in the same oil pan used to fry eggs, and some marinade is added to make this vegetarian dish taste unique.

After Lin Chuyi finished the string of candied haws in his hand, he lifted the lid of the pot and took out the remaining rice.

"Oh, why did you leave so many dishes? Did you guys have enough to eat dinner?" Lin Chuyi was a little surprised when he saw the amount of food.

"Don't worry, we are all full. My little sister told me that your appetite has increased recently. I was afraid that you wouldn't have enough to eat, so I made more." Lin Sanya explained.

"Oh, I see. By the way, I also bought two roasted chickens. I was thinking of giving one to the village headman. If they don't want it, we'll just eat it ourselves. The chickens are not big, so they're perfect for a midnight snack."

Lin Sanya looked at Lin Chuyi as if she were a prodigal.

"You should just eat your meal. You're thinking about supper before you even have dinner. You're really imaginative. Good things shouldn't be wasted like this. I've already eaten the braised pork today. I'll save the roast chicken for tomorrow."

Lin Chuyi shook his head. "This thing can't be stored. It will go bad tomorrow. It's better to put it in your stomach for safety."

When Lin Chuyi saw that Lin Sanya started to get upset again, he simply changed the subject to divert her attention.

"Sister, aren't you curious about how our business is doing today?"

After being asked by Lin Chuyi, Lin Sanya finally remembered this and looked at Lin Chuyi expectantly.

"Yes, I would have forgotten to ask if you hadn't told me. How much money did you make in the county today?"

In Lin Sanya's mind, the braised meat made by Lin Chuyi tasted great and would surely sell well in the county, so she simply asked the question that concerned her most.

Lin Chuyi smiled at Lin Sanya, went to the cloth bags where the grain had been piled, and picked up the bag containing the copper coins.

Lin Chuyi came to Lin Sanya with a sack and put it down. When the sack fell to the ground, the sound of copper coins colliding with each other reached Lin Sanya's ears.

Lin Sanya stared at the sack with eyes wide open, her face full of shock. There was so much money that it had to be put in a sack. How much money did her second sister make?

"Except for the money I spent on shopping, the rest is all here. I haven't counted the exact amount, would you mind counting it for me?"

Lin Sanya nodded stupidly, and Lin Chuyi went outside and brought in two small stools, one for Lin Sanya to sit on and one for himself to sit on next to the low table.

After doing all this, Lin Chuyi scooped water from the water tank to wash his hands before returning to the low table to sit down and eat.

She poured the marinade on the white rice and mixed it, then took a mouthful of rice with a chopstickful of braised meat, and occasionally a chopstickful of cabbage. Soon, half of the rice in the bowl was gone.

After a day of running around outside, Lin Chuyi could finally come back and have a hot meal. Not only did his stomach feel soothed, but his heart also felt warm.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Lin Sanya bent down and untied the sack. Looking at the bag full of copper coins, she didn't know how to describe her feelings.

The money she earned from selling ginseng before could be said to be based on luck, but the bag of money in front of her was earned by her second sister with her own ability.

It only took her one day to earn several years' wages. Lin Sanya now completely believed Lin Chuyi's words about making money to support the family.

Lin Sanya shook off the chaotic thoughts in her mind and went outside to get the thin hemp rope she had woven during the day. The most urgent task at the moment was to count how much money she had earned in total.

After retrieving the hemp rope, Lin Sanya did not delay. She sat on a stool and began to count the copper coins in the candlelight, putting ten in a pile. When she had counted ten piles, she strung them together with a hemp rope and tied them up so that each string of copper coins was worth one hundred coins.

Lin Chu finished all the food and washed the dishes. Then he took a stool and sat next to Lin Sanya to count the copper coins with her.

After the joint efforts of the two, the copper coins in the cloth bag were emptied, and there were 354 strings in total with 35 coins left.

10 strings of money equals wen, also known as one string of money. One string of money can be exchanged for one tael of silver. In other words, Lin Chuyi made a net profit of thirty-five taels of silver today.
