Chapter 165 165 Buying Straw

  After Wang Dashan arrived, although he saw Wang Xiaomei to meet her elder brother, Qin Xiaoyao went to find Wang Dashan himself.

   told him that he lacked a lot of straw.

   "If it's convenient, bring me the straw tomorrow. The more the better, at least four carts."

  It doesn’t matter if you don’t run out, pile it up in the yard, and you can use it later whether it’s knitting straw shoes or starting a fire.

   "It's done! Borrow the scooter from the village chief's house, and I'll let my dad deliver it with me tomorrow!" Wang Dashan said quickly.

   With his current trolley, if the straw is pressed tightly and loaded high enough, one trolley is enough to hold seven or eight hundred pounds.

   For a truckload of straws like this, Mrs. Song paid him thirty-eight texts at one time.

   minus the city fee of three cents and about five cents to buy straw. On one trip, he could earn thirty cents.

   Even if the village head’s scooter can’t pull so many straws, it’s not a problem to earn twenty-five cents a trip.

   If you have four carts of straw, you will have a profit of more than 100 yuan.

  The key is that straw is different from firewood, so you don't need to go into the mountains to chop and pick it up.

  Although you have to spend money to buy it from the villagers, the advantage is that straw is cheap, and almost every household has it. You can buy a lot for a penny.

  He received a request from his sister-in-law on one side, and on the other side, he went directly to the villagers' homes to pick up the goods.

   This money is much easier to earn than selling firewood.

   Qin Xiaoyao was a little surprised.

  Wang Dashan saw it, and said in a good mood: "My father will also chop and sell firewood with me in the future."

   "After that, he went into the mountains to chop wood, and I sent it to the city to sell."

   Of course, when he was not selling firewood, he also had to go into the mountains. Only in this way can the family have enough firewood to sell in the city.

   Qin Xiaoyao nodded.

   She had heard Wang Xiaomei talk about her family before, knowing that Wang Dashan could get Wang Laoshuan to agree to give up the food in the paddy fields, it was not easy.

  The straw money was paid in advance, and Qin Xiaoyao let Wang Dashan leave.

   The next day, Wang Dashan and Wang Laoshuan came early in the morning.

   After unloading two carts of straw, he hurriedly left.

   When the two came for the second time, Liu Daniu had just arrived.

   Qin Xiaoyao learned that there were still straws in the village, so he discussed with Li Da Niu, paid the money separately, and bought a car for each of them.

   This made the father and son of the Wang family so happy, they pushed the scooter happily and went out again.

   After that, two carts of straw were sent.

   Qin Xiaoyao and Wang Xiaomei hadn't come back when they came over this time.

  Wang Dashan originally wanted to take Wang Laoshuan to go directly, and then go home again to pull firewood into the city to sell.

  Wang Dashan refused to leave, saying that he wanted to wait for Wang Xiaomei to come back.

   Wang Dashan's persuasion was ineffective, and he was in a hurry, so he had no choice but to let Wang Laoshuan stay in the Song family.

   Sitting on the stone bench in the Song Family's courtyard, looking at the Song Family's large courtyard, Wang Laoshuan's eyes were full of envy at the moment.

   In the past, everyone belonged to the same village and was still a neighbor.

  The situation of his family is much better than that of the Song family.

   But how long has passed, the situation of the two families has become one heaven and one underground.

  The Song family lived in the city, and it was still such a big yard. his home-

  The mother-in-law left, and the family's wealth was also hollowed out. He and his son had to collect firewood every day to pay off the debt.

   "Brother Wang, drink some water and wait. After a while, the little sister should be back." Mrs Liu brought a bowl of water over.

   "Thank you - thank you!" Wang Laoshuan got up subconsciously and bowed.

   Just because Liu's clothes are different from before, now Liu's dress is like a city person, which makes him have a feeling that he can't look directly.

   "You're welcome." Liu Shi replied.

   said a few words and left.

   She naturally knew about the Wang family. She came to deliver water, but she didn't want to be too rude.

   This Wang Laoshuan didn't leave with Dashan, but stayed behind to look for his little sister. I just hoped not to cause trouble for the little sister.

  The Liu family left, and Wang Laoshuan sat down to drink water.

   It turned out that there was sugar in the water, and his eyes brightened immediately.

   Then, drink the sugar water quickly.

   In my heart, I was a little envious of the good days of the Song family.

   Next, Wang Laoshuan waited in the yard again.

   Finally waited for Wang Xiaomei to come back.

  I saw Wang Xiaomei pushing a trolley into the yard, and there were still a lot of utensils left on the trolley.

   Wang Laoshuan saw this and hurried to help.

   "Why are you pushing such a big truck by yourself? Dad is here to help you." After speaking, he was about to take over the work in the hands of Wang Xiaomei.

   Wang Xiaomei was taken aback by the sudden appearance of Wang Laoshuan.

  I didn’t want to give the job to Wang Laoshuan, but I couldn’t grab him, so I had to cooperate.

   "My sister-in-law has a lot of things to do, so now I'm all alone to set up the stall. These things look a lot, but they're not heavy." Wang Xiaomei said with Wang Laoshuan walking into the yard.

   "What? You set up a stall by yourself?!" Wang Laoshuan was surprised.

   Seeing Wang Xiaomei frowning and looking at him, Wang Laoshuan restrained his expression.

   "Dad's meaning, this—it's too hard."

   "It's not hard." Who knew Wang Xiaomei replied directly to him.

   "I'm eating and living well now, and my sister-in-law also asked Yun'er to teach me how to write. It's much better than when I was in Xiashui Village."

   Feeling the harshness in the girl's tone, Wang Laoshuan's face stiffened.

   "Hehe, I don't even know much about a girl's film. What words can I teach you to learn?" Wang Laoshuan laughed. The intention was to ease the atmosphere.

   Unexpectedly, it made Wang Xiaomei sullen.

"What's wrong with the girl? Yun'er completed the Thousand Characters Writing when she was six years old, and then she learned the Three Character Classic under the guidance of her aunt, Baijia surnames and so on. Now I'm still reading the books on Brother Song's bookshelf. It's in Lingyun Academy. The reading clerks in my class are not necessarily better than Yun'er!"

   Wang Laoshuan was surprised.

What? A little girl's movie, better than the reading man of Lingyun Academy?

   Wang Xiaomei glanced at Wang Laoshuan and went forward to grab the handle of the scooter back.

   "I'll do it myself. The unsold goods should be returned to the utility room. Dad, you haven't done it before, so you can't do it well."

  Wang Laoshuan felt his daughter's displeasure, touched his nose, and didn't dare to say any more.

   I haven't seen each other for a month, my daughter is different.

   His temperament has changed a lot compared to when he was at home, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

  Yes, fear.

   The current girl is a lot fatter than when she was at home.

The    wear is also many times stronger than when he was in Xiashui Village.

   If he hadn't known that she came to the Song family to be a slave, he would have suspected that the girl was also from the city.

   There was an accident at home, eh... He knew that his daughter resented him, but this matter was brought up by her mother, and it had nothing to do with him.

   Besides, although she is now a slave, the Song family doesn't treat her well.

   Offering delicious food and drink, and let her read and write, the life is many times better than when he and his son were in Xiashui Village. What does she have to complain about?

  Thinking of this, Wang Laoshuan once again caught up with Wang Xiaomei.

   Wang Xiaomei's eyes flashed a touch of irritability.

   "There are a lot of things piled up in the utility room, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. Dad, wait outside." He said.
