The first pot of donkey-hide gelatin and suliu was exchanged for more than 140 taels of silver. After excluding the previous costs, she still made a net profit of 130 taels.
With the success of the first experiment, Su Liu started to prepare the medicinal materials for making donkey-hide gelatin for the second time. She went to the grocery store and brought back twenty kilograms of rice wine, sugar, and other materials for later use. She searched all over Baise Town, and she also
Still only got one donkey skin, so I thought about going to the county to collect the donkey skin.
But before that, she still rushed to make the second pot of donkey-hide gelatin. After all, it takes not only one and a half days to make a pot of donkey-hide gelatin, but as much as half a month.
With the first experience, the second time was much smoother. In addition, she had already obtained the title deed for the land she had purchased before.
With the land deed in hand, he started to clear the land and sow the seeds. Since there was a shortage of manpower, Su Liu had to hire help from the village. However, he said that he had rented more than ten acres of land and was now asking for help.
Even so, there was still an explosion in Da'ao Village.
This farmer's family regards the land as their life, but not everyone can afford it. There are also many people in Da'ao Village who rent the land for farming. The family has a few acres or even ten acres of land like the Su family.
A wealthy family.
But Su Liu rented so much land all of a sudden. Even though it didn't belong to her, it was enough to make people jealous. Moreover, she hired people to do the work, which cost a lot of money. Everyone said that Su Liu
They are developed.
It's not the autumn harvest yet, and it's leisure time. Most people in the village are free. As soon as they heard that Su Liu wanted to hire someone, and he also had eight big bucks a day, all of them, men, women, old and young, immediately lined up.
.
After all, eight big bucks is not a small amount. During the slack season, it would be good to earn some money to buy some meat.
Su Liu bought nearly fifteen acres of barren sloping land near his home in Bei'aozi, and even exchanged land with other people's land to make it one piece.
According to Su Liu's plan, it was easy to take care of the land in a continuous area. These lands were not good farmland and the cost was low, so she only planned to plant tomatoes and peppers, and then plant others when the season came.
The people Su Liu hired were all strong, male or female, and their names were registered. The wages were paid every three days.
Most of the farmers are simple and honest, and Su Liu is not that stupid. He just recruits some sneaky people to make things difficult for him. The people he recruits are all honest, honest and willing to work. They have so much money, and they work very smoothly.
.
This land was to be opened up, and Su Liu also left a large piece of land next to his home to build a house.
Su Liu and Ning Guang's plan had already been approved by Mrs. Chen, and in Mrs. Chen's heart, she already regarded them as Ning Guang's son-in-law.
Su Liu originally thought about overthrowing the house he lived in and rebuilding it, but Mrs. Chen said that the married woman threw water. Although Ning Guang didn't care, he always felt that it was like visiting the house, which was not good. It was better to be at home.
A house was built next to it. In the future, they would share a house, and Mrs. Chen and the others would also have someone to take care of them.
This was actually when Su Liu was already married.
Su Liu herself was a modern woman, and it was common for her mother-in-law and son-in-law to live together. She didn't have so many ideas. However, due to Chen's insistence and Ning Guang's words that Su Xiao was old, she stayed.
Come out of the homestead.
Because Su Liu hired people to do work, Bei'aozi became lively. Moreover, although the place where Su Liu and the others lived was famous as a haunted house, they had nothing to do after living there for so long. Instead, they became prosperous.
I guess it was blessed by the gods, so many daughters-in-law often went to Mrs. Chen's place to do needlework.
Mrs. Chen's temperament has always been soft and gentle. If she hadn't been known as a six-fingered child, more people would have been willing to get close to her. But now that everyone has separated and is single, and her daughter has become successful again, Su Liu
Seeing that although people were not enthusiastic, they were still polite, the ominous reputation gradually faded away. There were also good women in Da'ao Village, and seeing this, they were happy to get close to Mr. Chen.
No, in Su Liu's small courtyard, there were four or five women surrounding them, talking and working at the same time.
"Now, looking at Sister-in-law Chen, my life is the most comfortable." Mrs. Liu, the daughter-in-law of Cui Dazhu's family, sighed while picking up the soles of her shoes.
"No, you don't have in-laws to serve you, you don't have a difficult sister-in-law, your two daughters are well-behaved, and now you have such a promising future, who in the village doesn't say that you are a man who will have a good future?" The person who spoke at this end was Cui Erzhu's daughter-in-law, Tang.
, she has a round appearance and seems to have a cheerful personality.
"Very true, our aunt is a lucky one." Su Liu's elder sister-in-law, Su Jiangshi, added with a smile.
"It's not like this is how things work out." Mrs. Chen laughed, but the pride and joy between her eyebrows could not be concealed. It could be said that the days after the separation were the worst in her life.
The most comfortable life ever.
"Since you moved out of that house, your life has indeed been better than before. After all, you are living a comfortable life, so this person will naturally be well-raised." Lin, the daughter-in-law of Wang Daniu's family, said, "I looked at those two of yours.
The girl is becoming more and more energetic."
"That's right, you are provocative day by day. Soon, those who want to say goodbye will be afraid of destroying your family." Mrs. Liu said repeatedly, with a hint of envy in her tone. She also has a girl in her family.
But because he has been doing menial work for many years, he is tall, thick, and dark, so he is not as outstanding as Su Liu and others.
"They are still young, don't be in a hurry." Mrs. Chen looked proud, but she still said modestly.
"That is, this woman is most afraid of marrying the wrong man. The key to marrying is to find someone who will love others. If the family is well-off and the parents-in-law are kind, that would be the best." Mrs. Liu sighed.
: "Don't be like our generation, who can take a beating and stand still when scolded."
"Sister-in-law Cui, Brother Dazhu doesn't know how to fight, right?" Ms. Jiang was a little surprised.
"He is a good person, but he also likes his mother too much." Ms. Liu's face looked a little bitter.
"Generally speaking, it's okay. It's just that he still misses you. Don't be like..." Mrs. Chen patted her hand and lowered her voice when she talked about herself.
Does anyone present know what happened to her in the old house of the Su family? Tang then changed the topic and said: "What do you mean? I think both sisters Su and Liu are very lucky and will definitely marry into a good family.
"
Everyone agreed, and Mrs. Chen was extremely humble.
"But, Sister-in-law Chen, are you really renting the land in your house?" Mrs. Tang said with a gossipy look on her face.
Mrs. Chen lowered her head while embroidering flowers. She didn't even raise her head when she heard this and said, "Yes, no matter how prosperous we are, how can we spend so much money to buy land at once?"
"I heard that this is the land of the hunter who lives at the bottom of Mount Ao?" Mrs. Liu also came over, looked at Mrs. Chen and asked, "Sister-in-law Chen, what kind of knowledge does this hunter have? I looked at him and Su Liu.
Like we’ve always been together?”
Mrs. Chen paused her hand and said: "He is also a good person. It is rare that his wealth is also clean. If...it just depends on whether God has given him that fate."
She spoke in a cryptic way, but everyone could understand what she meant. She understood clearly in her heart, and she stopped when she had an idea in mind.
"This marriage is a wonderful one. It depends on how God arranges it." Mrs. Su Jiang clapped her hands happily.
On this side, Ms. Lin frowned, raised her head, and looked at Mr. Chen, who was about to speak but hesitated.
She glanced at Mr. Chen a few times, and Mr. Chen naturally noticed it and asked, "It's from Daniu's family, but am I getting flowers on my face?"
Wang Daniu's family lives next to Su's house, and they are considered neighbors. They used to have contacts with the Chen family, but Wang Daniu is a serious and old-fashioned person, and he doesn't like her to drop by to discuss disputes. Therefore, although they have contacts, they are not particularly friendly, but they are also
Able to speak.
"Sister-in-law, I have something to say. If you don't like it, don't take it to heart." Ms. Lin gritted her teeth and said.
Her words aroused the curiosity of several people present. Jiang and Tang were very adventurous, so they couldn't help but hurry up.
"Yesterday morning, I saw your sister-in-law at your old house. Tuesday's sister-in-law came. When she left, Tuesday sent her out. I listened to what they said, as if she had found a good match for your Su Liu.
"Yeah." Mrs. Lin looked at Mrs. Chen's face and said carefully.
After hearing this, Mrs. Chen's expression changed, she grabbed Mrs. Lin's hand and asked urgently: "What are you talking about? What about marriage?"
"I didn't hear it clearly, but from what I heard, it seemed that Su Liu's father had agreed to it." Mrs. Lin looked at Mrs. Chen with some sympathy.
With a soft popping sound, the embroidery shed in Chen's hand fell to the ground. Her face turned pale and she said with difficulty, "Are you telling the truth?"
Mrs. Lin saw the look of strong shock on her face and felt a little regretful. She forced a smile and said, "That's what I heard, but maybe I heard it wrong. After all, Su Liu is living with you now."
"That's not necessarily true. The two sisters lived with Sister-in-law Chen, but Su Dalang is their father after all. It is possible that he would interfere in their marriage." Tang said at this time.
Mrs. Chen's body was already shaky at this time. Her head was buzzing and she was dizzy. She gritted her teeth and said with trembling words: "He, even if he dies, he will never let us three go." As he said this, tears fell.
Come down.
Everyone looked at each other, a little worried, and Mrs. Lin was even more annoyed. If Wang Daniu found out about this, she might be accused of meddling in other people's business.
"Auntie, don't worry, wait until I go back to find out more." Mrs. Su Jiang was also shocked. If Su Changsheng really interfered, how could he really plan for Su Liu and the others? He said he was pushing them into a wolf's den and a tiger's den.
It's too much.
After hearing Su Jiangshi's words, Mrs. Chen seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and said hurriedly: "Go, hurry up and explore."
Su Jiangshi nodded, hurriedly packed up her things, and left in a hurry.
When the remaining people saw that she was gone and that Chen had no intention of talking, they couldn't stay any longer. After a few words of comfort, they all made excuses and left.
When Su Liu and the others came back, they saw Mrs. Chen sitting in the courtyard without moving. They were startled and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Mrs. Chen came back to her senses and saw Su Liu's face that was becoming more and more beautiful. She suddenly felt sad, and tears flowed down. She hugged her and cried: "Liu'er, my poor son, yours
Why is life so hard?"
Su Liu's delicate eyebrows wrinkled when she cried like this. What kind of evil is going on?
