Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

While Meng Haisheng was drying the grass here, the boys in the village came back one after another carrying bundles of grass.

The boys aged 11 or 12 could not cut too much grass, but they could still carry small bundles of grass weighing 20 to 30 kilograms each.

The boys aged 15 or 16 were more capable, and could drag bundles of grass weighing 50 kilograms.

The group of children happily took the money from Lin Mucheng and rushed to the village store.

Lang Tieniu cut more than 100 kilograms today and delivered it to Meng Haisheng's house twice.

He got more than one yuan, and bought popsicles and candies, just like a small landlord.

Ma Jinying, who didn't know the situation, was a shrew. Seeing her son spending money like this, she thought he was stealing.

So Ma Jinying picked up a broom and chased Lang Tieniu for two blocks.

If she didn't feel sorry for her son, Meng Tieniu's butt would definitely be beaten to a pulp today.

"Mom, mom, don't hit me yet. I really earned this money myself. I didn't catch katydids in the mountains today. I cut more than 100 kilograms of grass."

"I don't believe you. There are grasses all over the mountains. Which idiot would take money from you?"

"Tell me the truth. Did you steal your father's private money?"

Ma Jinying's pockets are cleaner than her face. She knows how much money there is in the family. She has no shortage of money here. That's Lang Dali.

Lang Dali, who came out to watch the fun, didn't expect the fire to burn himself, so he quickly distanced himself from the matter.

"You can deal with Tie Niu, so just deal with Tie Niu. Don't blame me."

The family made a mess in the street, and many people in the village came out to watch the fun.

The lawsuit here has not been settled yet, and Meng Xiaohu was also dragged out of the house by his mother by the collar.

Meng Xiaohu also held a bag of fig shreds and a bag of sour plum powder in his hand.

"Mom, I really earned this money by cutting grass. I cut 50 kilograms today."

"You are getting more and more promising now. You can lie without blinking an eye."

"Do you think I am as easy to fool as a three-year-old child?"

Not long after Meng Xiaohu was dragged out, several other families also pulled out their own children.

When everyone gathered together to talk, their faces were full of question marks.

If there was only one family, perhaps no one would believe that Meng Haisheng would collect grass.

But so many children stood up and said that they made money by helping Meng Haisheng cut grass, then it was somewhat credible.

So a group of children and adults came to find Meng Haisheng.

At this moment, Meng Haisheng had just finished drying the grass and was fetching water in the yard to wash Bupleurum.

He was shocked to find so many people coming to his house.

"What's going on?"

"Haisheng, my Tieniu just said that you charge one cent per pound for grass. Is that true?"

"That's right. My family is going to raise more rabbits, but we don't have enough manpower at home, so we asked the children in the village to help cut some grass."

Ma Jinying didn't care what Meng Haisheng was doing with the grass. She only cared about Meng Haisheng's one cent per pound for grass.

Now it's midsummer and the most abundant thing in the mountains and fields is grass. If it's really one cent per pound, she can cut one or two hundred pounds of grass and bundle it out in her free time.

"Haisheng, do you need more tomorrow?"

"Yes, but I can't dry it here, so I'm afraid I can't take too much. I can only take one or two thousand pounds."

When the women and children who came around heard that Meng Haisheng would only take one or two thousand pounds, their minds immediately became active.

Tomorrow you have to get up early to cut grass. If you come back late, Meng Haisheng will not take it.

The men who came to join in the fun thought they could earn some money to smoke cigarettes, but when they heard that Meng Haisheng only charged one or two thousand kilograms, they immediately lost interest.

Someone saw Meng Haisheng washing bupleurum in the yard, and immediately remembered Meng Haisheng's collection of bupleurum.

"Haishen, how many bupleurum have you collected? Do you need more recently?"

The person asking the question was Lang Dali, whose family had many people and little land, and they lived a tight life.

"I collect it, and I'll take as much as I can."

"How much do you charge? Do you have any requirements?"

Lang Dali had long known that Meng Haisheng charged one yuan per kilogram for bupleurum, but he couldn't help but confirm it again and again.

Meng Haisheng patiently told Lang Dali again.

The men standing in the crowd pricked up their ears.

If this was really reliable, charging one yuan per kilogram for bupleurum would be a good deal.

"Did you dig all these bupleurum today?"

Lang Dali went forward to look at the bupleurum soaked in the basin by Meng Haisheng.

"Yes, I dug them all today. Now that the weather is hot, I have to clean them and dry them quickly, otherwise they will go bad, which would be a waste of work."

Lang Dali asked carefully for a long time before leaving.

Watching the backs of the people leaving, Meng Haisheng knew in his heart that he would be able to collect the Bupleurum soon.

It took Meng Haisheng a long time to make the villagers trust him, and he couldn't help but wipe his sweat for himself.

In the future, you must cherish your reputation. It is not easy to get it back after it is ruined.

Tomorrow, there is still grass to be collected. Meng Haisheng is afraid that Lin Mucheng will be too busy. After he cleans the Bupleurum and dries it, Meng Haisheng goes to Meng Guangjun's house before dinner.

"Second Aunt, can you be busy here recently? I want to ask you for help to cut the salad for my family."

Qiu Shuyi heard that Meng Haisheng's family was making salad and selling it in the town and county these days. She didn't expect the business to be so good that they were already too busy.

"Okay, I'm almost done with the housework in the hot summer, so I can help you cut some salad."

"Second Aunt, help me cut the salad, I won't let you help for nothing, you can be like my mom, I'll give you one dollar a day, what do you think?"

Qiu Shuyi was stunned when Meng Haisheng said he would pay her.

"We are all a family, why do we need money? It's only right for you to help me with some work when you are too busy."

Meng Haisheng had expected that Qiu Shuyi would not ask for money.

He was not as good at talking as Lin Mucheng, so he simply brought up Meng Daniu.

"Second Aunt, don't be polite to me, I know that Brother Daniu is still waiting to get married."

Sure enough, when Meng Haisheng mentioned Meng Daniu, Qiu Shuyi was a little relieved, and it was her concern to find Meng Daniu a wife.

But it was a bit unreasonable for her to collect Meng Haisheng's wages for helping him with some work.

"Second Aunt, don't hesitate. It's settled. Come to my house tomorrow morning to cut vegetables."

After Meng Haisheng finished speaking, he was about to leave. As soon as he reached the door, he ran into Meng Meng Guangjun.

"Second Uncle, you're back."

Meng Haisheng stepped forward to greet Meng Guangjun.

"Haisheng is here. When are you going to the county to sell Bupleurum? We have saved some at home."

Meng Guangjun has three sons. He heard that selling Bupleurum can make money, so the whole family went out together.

Although each person does not dig a lot of Bupleurum every day, they have a large family. All together, the Bupleurum dried in the past few days has reached 150 kilograms.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll see how much I can dry at home."

"Okay, let Daniu go with you then."
