Chapter 36 When did Ganoderma lucidum become cabbage?
"Isn't it? Everyone knows that your old lady was just trying to please him, but he actually took it seriously. He went back and started saving money. In less than two years, he saved five taels of silver. It can be seen that he is a capable person."
Aunt Ya felt a little envious when she said this. This kid is so honest!
Moreover, he is capable and reliable.
"He knows that I have a good relationship with your family, but he is shy and feels embarrassed. So he asked me to test the waters and ask if your family is still willing?"
Aunt Ya is very optimistic about Zhao Wei. If nothing else, this thought alone is worth it.
Shen had also seen that boy. Apart from looking a bit fierce, there was nothing bad about him.
"This boy is good, he is one year older than Erya, I think he is a perfect match for Erya.
I think he really loves Erya, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to go back and save money instead of talking about marriage."
Aunt Ya thinks that a man should be reliable, able to make money, and devoted to Erya. What's wrong with him being a bit fierce? It's hard to find a good family even with a lantern.
"After she gets married, there will be no parents-in-law to control her, so there is no need to worry about Erya being bullied. It's in Wangjia Village, close to her parents' home, so she can help both sides."
Aunt Ya's words made Shen's heart moved. This marriage was simply impeccable!
"I think it's a good idea, but we have to ask Erya's opinion. If she doesn't want to, then that won't work." Shen thought for a moment and said.
"That's right. It depends on whether the child is willing. A forced melon is not sweet." Aunt Ya said with a smile.
The two were busy in the kitchen, and Jiang Youzhen had already left.
She glanced at Erya who was hanging clothes to dry. Although she was malnourished and looked pale and thin, she still had a pretty figure.
Especially the second sister, who is as gentle as water and hardworking, a good girl that is hard to find even with a lantern.
She had only been here for a few days, and her second sister was about to get married, and she suddenly felt reluctant to let her go.
"What's wrong?" Erya noticed Jiang Youzhen's gaze and said with some amusement.
"But are you hungry? Can I get you a steamed bun?"
Jiang Youzhen shook his head, "Second sister, you are so beautiful."
Erya blushed immediately, "You are the only one who talks sweetly, do you want to eat meat for lunch? Then I will ask mother to make some for you."
Jiang Youzhen: ...Original owner, please reflect on why you are a foodie in the eyes of your second sister? After all, this has nothing to do with her.
She originally wanted to ask Erya about her feelings, but then she thought that Shen would definitely ask about this, so she decided not to interfere.
When I turned around and went back to the house, I saw my fourth sister walking around the house holding the backpack tightly, feeling that it would not be safe anywhere.
"Fourth sister, put it down quickly! If you do that, everyone will see that you have treasure in your backpack."
Jiang Youzhen found it funny. He was fighting with the old man just now and forgot about the backpack. He didn't expect that Fourth Sister was still holding her in her arms!
"What do you know? This is a treasure, of course it must be hidden. Forget it, just take it to your room and hide it!"
Si Ya carried the backpack and left. Jiang Youzhen shook his head. The room was so small, where else could he hide it? He had to put it openly so that no one would notice it.
The people who came to help this time were all on good terms with Jiang Fugui. They knew that Jiang Fugui had no surplus food, so they had planned to just make do with something for lunch, and some even brought wild vegetable dumplings from home.
Unexpectedly, Shen was kneading dough and making steamed buns. The aroma of the steamed buns even attracted the old man and the old lady.
The old man and his friends made such a fuss that they felt very embarrassed for a while.
"This? There's meat in the cabbage?"
The person who spoke was Jiang Tie, a member of the Jiang family.
"Fugui, you are too polite. We are all family, there is no need to be like this."
Jiang Tie took a look at the slices of meat in the cabbage. Although they were very small, they were meat after all!
Although I can't help but drool, but the rich and powerful just separated, where would they get the money to buy meat? How bad is this?
"Ah! Fugui, you have so many steamed buns. Except for the head of the village and Mr. Wang's family, no one else in our village can afford it!" Li Datou also said.
Li Datou is Aunt Ya's husband, and he usually takes good care of Jiang Fugui's family.
Listening to everyone criticizing Jiang Fugui for being so distant, Jiang Youzhen felt that anyone who could hang out with his cheap father must be a pretty good person.
But this also reminded her that she had to find a way out for the money.
She had to find an excuse to take out the money legitimately.
"We are all family, so I will just speak frankly." Jiang Fugui suddenly said after hearing what his good brothers said.
"In fact, I also dug up a Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains. It was much smaller than the one Da Zhuang's father dug up last time. But I also sold it for ten taels of silver, which was enough to buy tiles and meat."
After he said this, everyone looked at him in shock.
Jiang Youzhen was stunned. His own stepfather also picked Lingzhi? When did Lingzhi become Chinese cabbage?
The three sisters at the table were also confused. What happened? Could it be that the Ganoderma lucidum in the basket had been discovered by their father?
Shen coughed lightly and almost dropped the piece of meat she was about to give to Aunt Ya on the table.
"Oh! This is such a great joyous event!"
Aunt Ya was even happier. She had originally advised Shen not to cook such delicious food for her as she felt guilty while eating it. Now she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The other five people who helped all breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled and lamented that Fugui was just lucky.
Jiang Youzhen carefully observed the expressions of the five people and found that they were all blessing from the bottom of their hearts, so he looked away.
Let’s talk about the Lingzhi matter behind closed doors later. It’s not a good time to ask about it now.
"But even if you have money now, you still have to spend it frugally. You have three daughters and a boy, and they are all old enough," Li Datou advised.
"Yes! If you are rich, you have to spend money frugally." Jiang Tie nodded.
"Also, don't spread this matter to anyone else, to avoid getting jealous." Li Datou was careful and thoughtful, and instructed several people.
Everyone was smiling as they ate the meal. Each person had three large black steamed buns, which was enough to fill them up.
Not to mention a bowl of black flour porridge with pickles and a bowl of cabbage stewed with pork slices.
Although there are few slices of meat, it is a good dish for people who have not eaten meat for a month or two.
Everyone was very satisfied, except Jiang Youzhen who was not very satisfied with the meal.
The main thing is that there are too few slices of meat, only two slices per person are gone.
However, wealth should not be shown off. When there are outsiders around, you really can't eat as much as you want.
After lunch, Jiang Youzhen thought about going up the mountain to see if the trap he set had caught any prey.
"Mother, I want to go to the headman's house to find Master Tong. He promised to teach me how to read."
Before leaving, Jiang Youzhen said something to Shen, because Shen would not allow her to go up the mountain alone.
"Why are you still going to Master Tong? I heard that Master Tong will have to rely on Tong Sheng after the spring. Don't bother him."
When Shen heard this, she thought it would be a shame to delay other people's exams.
"It's okay. I only delayed him for a while. He asked me to go. Now that I can read, it will be easier for me to find a job in the future."
Jiang Youzhen didn't want to hear anything, so he turned around and went into the woodshed, quietly put on his backpack and went out.
