Chapter 6 Really see the money

Grandma Su's face turned pale. The child was really frightened and started talking nonsense.

I have to go out secretly at night and call my children.

Su Xiaotian then remembered that in this era, the four olds were destroyed, and monsters and ghosts were not allowed to be mentioned!

She made a mistake!

But now that the words have been spoken, there is no other way.

"Nai, I'm just telling you!" Su Xiaotian said hurriedly: "I won't tell others!"

"My dear, I think you are confused by your illness and are not recovered yet." Grandma Su touched Su Xiaotian's forehead to make sure her granddaughter had a fever again.

"Hey, it's true, I really had a dream." Su Xiaotian said seriously, with a trace of worry on her face.

Grandma Su had a tolerant smile on her face. Maybe the child overheard someone saying the words "Dragon King" and had a dream. It's nothing, right?

It's because I'm overthinking it.

"Nai roasted sweet potatoes for you in the stove. They are almost ready. After eating them, you will forget about them as soon as you fall asleep."

Su Xiaotian shook her head with determination, turned around and took out fifty cents from the small box at the end of the kang.

Five 10-cent pieces of money were handed to Grandma Su. Grandma Su was dumbfounded.

"My dear, where did you get your money?"

Su Xiaotian was favored, but as a child, she had no money. Occasionally during the New Year, she would have one or two cents of lucky money to buy candies. It was impossible to spend 50 cents in one go.

"Milk, this is what Grandpa Dragon King said to buy me candy!" The little face was full of innocence and ignorance, and the expression was spot on.

Grandma Su is in a mess.

Feudal superstition means that demons and ghosts are going to be caught, but the money the little granddaughter took out was real. What happened?

"Mom, take these fifty cents. If Grandpa Dragon King gives me money again, I will return it to you." Su Xiaotian said seriously.

Grandma Su was in a bad mood. Her granddaughter suddenly did something like this. She was really afraid that her granddaughter would be targeted by others.

"Good boy, you can't say this, no one can say it." The old lady quickly held Su Xiaotian in her arms and lowered her voice.

Su Xiaotian nodded solemnly: "I won't tell anyone except you."

Grandma Su nodded mechanically. After nodding, she felt that it was still inappropriate, so she quickly added: "Not even your mother can say that."

It's not that the daughter-in-law is untrustworthy, but the less people know about such a thing, the better. If someone gets caught, the whole family will be in trouble.

Su Xiaotian nodded heavily: "I won't tell you, not even my parents."

Grandma Su was guaranteed to go out.

Su Xiaotian began to read seriously again.

The little girl who was reading the storybook carefully did not know that Grandma Su was so disturbed by her that she even forgot to cook in the yard.

It’s not that Grandma Su has never seen money, but she has definitely never seen the money given by Lord Long.

She is happy and sad at the same time!

If someone found out, their whole family would be arrested, but what would they do?

After thinking about it, the old lady suddenly became enlightened. As long as she didn't tell, and her granddaughter didn't tell, who would know where her family's money came from?

Who can prove that it was given by the Dragon King?

It's just that the Dragon Prince helped his beloved baby, but he couldn't even offer him a stick of incense. How sinful he was!

When the few people in the brigade stop watching so closely, go and offer incense to the Dragon Prince!

After thinking about it, Grandma Su went to cook, but because she wasted some time because of her random thoughts, the Su family's lunch was a little late.

Fortunately, the people in the Su family are not difficult to deal with. When the three daughters-in-law came back from work, they saw that the meal was not ready yet, so they hurriedly cooked together without even a word of complaint.

The four women quickly prepared the meal. The whole family ate vegetable soup and cornmeal pancakes, but they lost their appetite just looking at them.

Only in front of Su Xiaotian was a white flour pancake, which looked so different among the food on the table.

Su Xiaotian looked at it and felt ashamed. She was the most useless one in the family, yet she still ate the best.

"Milk, I want to eat the same milk as you from now on."

"My dear, the wild vegetable soup is not delicious."

"Nai, from now on, we will all eat well and not eat wild vegetable soup, really." Su Xiaotian said to Grandma Su solemnly.

Grandma Su felt very sad when she heard that. If she doesn’t eat wild vegetable soup, what will she eat?

But I thought that the Dragon King gave his granddaughter money, and maybe he could really take care of the family and make life easier in the future.

After eating, Su Xiaotian immediately went back to her room and continued reading as soon as possible.

There is a golden house in the book, so you must not waste your time.

In this era, it was still a planned economy, and Su Xiaotian really couldn't find any other good ways to make money. Since she was given this golden finger after being reborn, she must seize the time to use it.

In one afternoon, Su Xiaotian finished reading two more books. Because she read very carefully, she received fifty cents and sixty cents respectively.

Su Xiaotian was so happy that she almost jumped up. She made 1.6 yuan a day. If you tell me, others will be shocked.

However, Su Xiaotian did not intend to give the money to Grandma Su immediately. Giving Grandma Su too many times a day would arouse suspicion.

She might as well save up some money and give it together.

At this time, Grandma Su was cooking in the kitchen. Because Su Xiaotian said she wanted to eat with everyone at noon, Grandma Su thought about it again and again, scooped out a spoonful of white flour and mixed it with cornmeal to bake pancakes.

When frying the cornmeal pancakes, two of them were specially greased with a little oil.

The cornmeal pancakes with white flour are stirred by the oil and have a very rich aroma.

But I still felt that such a meal was not nutritious enough, so I boiled an egg for Su Xiaotian.

It's not that she doesn't want to give eggs to her other grandchildren, but the management in the brigade is very strict. A family of three can raise one chicken, but their family of eighteen can only raise six chickens.

In these days, it is not easy for people to eat enough, let alone chickens, which usually only have three eggs a day.

Not to mention ten grandchildren, even the whole family relies on these eggs for their oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. There is really no extra.

When it got dark, Grandma Su baked a pot of cornmeal pancakes.

The children who were studying were all back, the adults who were working in the fields were all back, and the whole family was busy preparing for dinner.

Seeing an extra egg in front of her, Su Xiaotian frowned.

There are too few chickens in the house, and they can only eat weeds and don't lay many eggs, otherwise they wouldn't be so busy.

It would be great if the library could provide me with a book on scientific chicken raising to read. Unfortunately, it is up to you to decide what book you can read.

In the end, the eggs were separated by Su Xiaotian.

A small egg was cut into four pieces. In addition to Su Xiaotian, Grandpa Su, Grandma Su and Xiao Qi each had one piece.

Grandpa Su and Grandma Su looked at their filial granddaughter and couldn't help wiping their tears secretly. It was because they were worthless adults that they allowed the children to suffer.

But just this little piece of egg makes people feel very warm.

The whole family had dinner, and the women were enjoying the cool air in the yard, chatting, and doing needlework.

There are more than a dozen people in the family, and just making shoes is enough for the four women in the family.
