Dadongzi was slightly stunned and didn't react for a while.
Hearing that several other uncles also advised him to be more open-minded, he thought to himself, could it be that the news that the root of the tree was not his son had spread to the village in the next town? This is too...
"Who did you listen to?" Dadongzi was surprised.
"Oh, don't worry about it, we all know it anyway."
After hearing what his uncle said, Dadongzi felt ashamed and his head drooped, "I didn't expect you would know."
Seeing him like this, Uncle Shen became even more convinced that he had guessed right, "Dongzi, you have seen it, uncle, my family is also in trouble. The house is in tatters and there is not much to eat...
"
Having said this, he put one dollar and two cents into Dadongzi's hand, "This money is a little bit of kindness from our uncles. Don't think it's too little."
"Ah? Uncle, why did you give me the money?" Dadongzi was stunned for a moment and hurriedly handed the money back to him, "I don't want your money."
"I know your family must be in more difficulty than ours right now. To be honest, I'm quite embarrassed to have scraped together such a small amount of money to give it to you," Uncle Shen asked, "Are you too little?"
Could it be that uncle and the others had all heard about Shugenniang taking away all her dividends?
Dadongzi thought of this in shock, his cheeks burning, "My family has no money now, but I...I will find a way myself, really! I don't intend to ask for your money, I came here today just to
You guys come to my house tomorrow..."
"Oh, will the banquet be set up tomorrow?" Uncle Shen asked.
Dadongzi nodded, "Yes, you don't need to bring anything with you tomorrow, just arrive. My mother asked you to come early in the morning."
"Okay, let's go there early so we can help."
After Uncle Shen finished speaking, his eldest brother tried to give the money to Dadongzi again, "You still have to take the money. It's a token of your gratitude. If you don't take it, let's be honest, I won't feel so good."
Be practical."
"Yes, yes," Third Uncle Shen and Fourth Uncle Shen hurriedly agreed, "Dongzi, you're welcome, the money isn't much, right?"
Dadongzi felt that this was too embarrassing for his family, and it would be even more embarrassing if he collected money. He said, "No need." He put the money on the table, and then said, "Okay, I brought the message. I'll go first."
Let’s go.”
After leaving the gate, he emphasized, "Remember to come early!"
"Okay, we will definitely go before dawn!" Uncle Shen walked to the door and said.
After Dadongzi left, he glanced at the money on the table and wondered, "What do you mean? Does he really not want the money? Or is it too little?"
"I can't figure it out either..."
Several people discussed it for a while, and Uncle Shen's eldest son Shen Guisheng said, "It seems to me that he really doesn't want to receive money."
"Oh, no matter how you say it, wouldn't it be better if you didn't take any money?" Liao Guifen said, "Forty cents is not a lot. You can buy a lot of needles and threads."
"Yes, those words he just said were what he said himself. You don't need to bring anything with you tomorrow, as long as people arrive." Uncle Shen said.
His third brother was worried, "But he said that his family didn't have a penny. What are we going to do for the banquet tomorrow? Should we bring some food ourselves?"
"That's right. Let's bring something." A group of people from the Shen family gathered together to discuss for a long time, planning to bring some steamed buns, sweet potato noodles and pickles.
Early the next morning, the Jiang family and Xiao Lingbao were the first to wake up.
She felt that her spiritual power was almost restored, so she went into the space to ripen the white radish and celery that had not been successfully ripened yesterday.
At this time, the system gave her a random task, "Let the villagers eat the vegetables you grew by yourself to increase their love for you."
As long as fifty people eat the vegetables you grow and their liking for you increases, you can gain an additional 200 points of liking."
Xiao Lingbao's eyes lit up, "Wow! Two hundred points!"
Now she already has more than one hundred. If she adds another two hundred, she will definitely be able to buy a chicken coop. Although the chicks have not yet arrived, the chicken coop must be built in the space first.
Thinking of this, the baby girl harvested all the radishes and celery she planted and piled them next to the Lingbao field. Then she shouted in the air: "Wuyun, how many kilograms of radishes and celery did Lingbao grow? Come out and tell me."
"
As soon as she finished speaking, a dark cloud appeared above a pile of radishes, "There are 152 kilograms of white radish and 96 kilograms of celery. Congratulations to the owner for adding two crop illustrations. If you want to buy radish seeds and celery seeds in the future, you can go to the supermarket directly."
After saying that, she asked as usual: "Does the master want to sell the vegetables? The price of a pound of white radish is one and three cents, and the price of a pound of celery is two cents."
Lingbao thought that his mother had invited more than two hundred people to her home, and it would be enough for one person to eat half a catty of radishes, which is one hundred catties.
As for celery, each person should not be able to eat even half a pound...
After calculating hard with her little brain, she said: "I want to sell 52 kilograms of white radish and 46 kilograms of celery."
"Okay, the radish sold for a total of sixty-eight cents, and the celery sold for ninety-two cents. The total is one dollar and sixty cents, plus the remaining forty cents from the supermarket before, it is exactly two dollars. The master is going to the supermarket to buy some.
What?"
"If you want to make meat taste better, do you need to add spices to the meat?"
Wuyun nodded the cat's head, "Yes, after the supermarket upgrade, in addition to white sugar, there is also rock sugar for sale. It is best to use it to stew braised pork belly. It also has star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and dried chili peppers."
Lingbao walked into the supermarket and looked at the transparent crystals in the big jar, "Wow! This is rock sugar? How much does rock sugar cost?"
"Rock sugar costs 80 cents per catty. The owner's money can buy two catties of rock sugar." Wu Yun said a recipe he knew. "One catty of pork belly requires 15 grams of rock sugar to fry the sugar color. In other words, two catties of rock sugar can fry about 67 catties of pork belly."
.”
"Where are the star anise and fragrant leaves?" Lingbao asked.
"Eight anise costs 6 cents and 50 grams, cinnamon costs 6 and 7 cents and 50 grams, and fragrant leaves cost 2 and 2 cents and 4 cents and 50 grams..."
Before it could continue, the little baby hurriedly interrupted: "Stop talking, these are too expensive! I won't buy any spices!"
"Okay, what about the rock candy? Does the master still want it?"
Little Lingbao, who was short of money, sighed helplessly, "Just buy two kilograms of rock candy."
"Okay!" Wu Yun raised his cat's paw and patted the rock candy jar twice. A bag of rock candy wrapped in kraft paper appeared on the glass counter.
Lingbao took rock sugar, white radish and celery out of the room. Suddenly, the whole room was filled with vegetables, and she almost had no place to stand.
Before dawn, she heard her mother getting up and hurriedly tiptoed out of her room, "Mother... there are so many dishes..."
Shen Su'e paused while putting on clothes, "What? Food?"
