Chapter VIII Planning to Get Rich

I remember the villain in my mind, and watching the villain dance, I always feel like something.

After thinking for a long time, I couldn't think of what it was. Just when I suddenly thought of the butterfly, I suddenly woke up!

Butterfly!

The dancing postures of those villains turned out to be like butterflies flying.

When I thought of this, the little people in my mind had broken and stiff parts suddenly became more flexible, jumping one by one, like butterflies dancing gracefully, elegant and light, and wonderful.

Watching the villain dance butterfly dance, I felt a sense of enjoyment. The blood in my body was boiling, like a rolling trend, constantly surging in my body, walking through the orifices, rushing all the way, unobstructed. In just half an hour, my body actually felt an unprecedented smooth feeling. Not only was it comfortable, but I also felt as light as a swallow, full of strength.

The fatigue of the day was swept away. It felt like planting a seedling, fertilizing, applying materials, watering, nourishing the sunshine, and suddenly a kind of strength emerged from the body, sprouting, and growing...

In this way, I was immersed in the beautiful butterfly dance seeds and I was already drowsy at some point.

"Brother Yong, get up."

I suddenly opened my eyes and smiled. It seemed as expected that Xiao Shenyan was calling me again. Thinking that I had returned to ancient times, I no longer felt annoyed again this time, I smiled and got up.

After pinching Xiao Shenyan's black face, she dyed black carbon in her hand.

I couldn't help but frown and said, "Little guy, why don't you like to wash your face? Look how unhygienic it is."

Xiao Shenyan raised her head and said stubbornly: "I have washed it all, it's just applied. Brother Lan said that girls are not allowed to wash their faces, and they will be dirty so that they can't tell what they look like."

I smiled and said, "It was Lan Ge'er who said again, Lan Ge'er said. Is Lan Ge'er all right?"

As she said this, her heart suddenly moved. It was not bad for Lan Ge'er to say this. In this chaotic era, it is safe for girls to have dirty faces.

I suddenly understood Lan Ge'er's good intentions, but suddenly I thought that Lan Ge'er always had a dark face. Will it be...

Ha even if he is a girl, he won't see where he can go.

I thought about this and couldn't help but smile.

I went out one after another with the children, and on the way, I focused on getting closer with Lan Geer.

Lan Ge'er was very sensitive and asked: "Is there anything wrong?"

I smiled awkwardly and said, "We are picking up vegetables every day?"

Brother Lan said angrily: "In addition to picking vegetables, they also grow vegetables, but the harvest of vegetables has not been good these days. I think that except for the half acre of peanuts that can be eaten into my mouth, the other things will probably be eaten by the locusts."

"Peanuts? We still have peanuts?" I asked in surprise.

Lan Ge'er smiled and said, "Of course, we still have more than ten acres of land in our house, so we can't completely abandon it. However, this year's severe drought and locust plague, we can't receive any other vegetables, so we can only eat some peanuts."

I was ecstatic, but I didn't expect that there were peanuts and there seemed to be less than acre of land. Now I was really sleepy and I had a pillow for it.

Seeing my face gloomy and gloomy, Lan Ge'er couldn't help but wonder: "What are you thinking about?"

I thought about it and tried to say it, but I was afraid that it would be better to say it all at once and then reject it, so I decided to be more gentle. I thought about it and said, "Look, among these children, you should be the oldest of me. They are still children, and they are still growing up. This nutrition cannot keep up..."

"Nutrition? What is nutrition?" Lan Geer asked curiously.

"Ah, it's just that children need some good food, such as meat, etc." I suddenly woke up and said that there is no nutrition in the Tang Dynasty, so I'll explain it.

"Oh, I also want to make some meat for the children, but where does the money come from? Let's not talk about meat anymore. Fortunately, I can still pick up some vegetables to eat in this season. If winter comes in a few more months, not only will I not be able to pick up vegetables, but I don't have any clothes, and it's hard to say how many people can survive." Lan Ge'er sighed weakly, her eyes full of sorrow and sadness.

My heart trembled. I didn't expect that it would be so cruel after winter, and it would...

The cold winter is indeed the most difficult time to overcome for beggars who have no clothes and no food.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look around at the children running in front. They are all happy and worry-free now, but in winter, I'm afraid it's just as Lan Ge'er said, and I'll really lose a few.

Immediately, my heart felt like a huge rock was pressed down, and I couldn't breathe.

Suddenly, I felt something strange about Lan Ge'er. When I turned my head, I saw that my eyes were already swaying. The two lines of tears quietly dripped away washed away the black stains on my face and turned into two white rays.

I couldn't help but be stunned. From the subtle point, Brother Lan should be a girl with a whiter skin.

Lan Ge'er probably thought of something, and his pace was a little heavy: "I left three years ago, and one last year. Every winter, I fell ill in a large area. It would be nice to recover from the beginning of spring. If Xiao Shitou hadn't stole a dog and let the children eat dog bone soup for a month last year, I'm afraid that the person who went there wouldn't be one. However, Xiao Shitou was also broken by stealing the dog's calves. It's not good now, so I forced them not to steal it... If... I could... I ordered earlier and not acquiesce... Xiao Shitou went... stealing the dog, his legs... wouldn't be... something happened..."

When Lan Ge'er said this, she was sobbing that she could no longer speak.

Xiao Shitou, I suddenly thought of the little guy who was not very convenient in the east room who looked like a thirteen or fourteen years old and always loved to laugh. It turned out that his legs were interrupted because he gave these younger brothers and sisters nutrition to steal the dog.

Alas, it's so pitiful. I actually broke my leg for the sake of stuttering.

For a moment, I didn't think about anything anymore, just thinking about how to take good care of these innocent and cute little beggars.

Looking at Lan Ge'er's heartbroken look, the softest part in my heart couldn't help but feel a stinging pain.

I patted Lan Ge'er on the shoulder: "Don't think about it. The things that have passed are gone, so don't think about them anymore. No matter how sad you are, you can't change anything. Don't worry, with me here this year, I will definitely let everyone live in peace and steadily." I suddenly made up my mind and promised.

Lan Ge'er also realized that she had lost her composure, so she hurriedly stopped her tears, wiped her face a few more times, like a little cat.

Brother Lan took a few breaths, calmed down, and sneered, "Just because of you? You can't even protect a piece of cake, so what else can you say to protect us? It's ridiculous."

"You!" I was speechless as I looked at Lan Ge'er's ruthless exaggeration.

Brother Lan was also afraid that what he said would hurt my self-esteem so much, so he said, "Okay, my great hero, just be fine if you have this kind of heart."

I said angrily: "I don't have this kind of heart, I still have this kind of strength."

Lan Ge'er said, "Okay, okay, I know, I believe you, hurry up and go pick up vegetables."

I was bored by picking up vegetables again.

Seeing me lowering my head and moving forward, Lan Ge'er smiled and pushed me away from behind.

I asked, “When will our peanuts be harvested?”

Lan Ge'er smiled and said, "I'm about to announce this good thing today, and I can collect it in the next two days. I'll allow you to eat a few more pills at that time."

When I heard this, I felt happy and said, "I have an idea, can I not eat all peanuts after I collect them, I will keep them useful."

Lan Ge'er said: "You think you are beautiful, of course you can't eat them all, and you still point to it and sell them for money. If you eat them all, how can you exchange them for money? Fortunately, we are secretly planting them and collecting them secretly, otherwise it would not be enough to pay taxes alone."

I couldn't help but worry, "If you can get it, you can't collect it early, don't let someone steal it."

Lan Ge'er said first: "No, if you haven't watched Ling Xiao these few days, Guan Yang and his older children are not here, they are all sent to protect peanuts."

But Lan Ge thought again and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. In this way, we will collect the peanuts tonight, saving us a lot of dreams."

I am very happy that Lan Ge's decision is that although collecting peanuts in advance may affect the development of a small amount, it is much better than not falling into it at all. In this kind of chaos, anything may happen. So it's better to put it in your pocket.

Thinking of the chaos of war, I asked again: "Does Lan Ge'er know Wang Xianzhi?"

Lan Ge'er stopped and his steps stopped. I turned my back to him. I didn't see his expression differently. I just heard him say, "I don't know this person. Why did you ask him?"

I said casually, "No, I asked casually. It seems that I have heard someone say that this person looks like a salt smuggling, and it seems like a rich man."

Lan Ge'er didn't say anything else after hearing this.

On that day, after picking up the vegetables, we did nothing else. We went directly to borrow a few carts from our neighbors and prepared a lot of iron steaks and wooden chisels. We prepared for the evening pickup of peanuts.

I also took the time to talk to Lan Geer about preparing to use peanuts to press oil. Lan Geer didn't understand the use of oil pressing, but I swear to say: "In the future, I will make better life for children and want to live a prosperous life, I have to rely on these oils."

Seeing that I was so singular, Lan Ge'er didn't believe it at all, but just shook his head and said no. I was anxious and told him what would happen, but she didn't ask Lan Ge'er to agree. I suddenly thought of something and said to Lan Ge'er: "On the day when the oil is squeezed, I can guarantee that we all eat meat, and how much do we want to eat?"

"You won't go stealing, are you?" Lan Ge'er didn't believe it, but the meat I mentioned successfully aroused her curiosity.

"Don't worry, you don't steal, rob, or cheat, otherwise you will break my legs." I patted my chest and promised.

Lan Ge'er looked at me for a while, but didn't say anything. I added to the air: "Do you still want to have children leave this year? Do you still want the children to live a life of picking vegetables and begging for food every day with us? Now that there is such a chance, why not change it?"

When Lan Ge'er listened to this, he was silent for a moment and suddenly decided to say, "Okay, I believe you, I'll allow you to try it."

When I heard Lan Ge'er say something, I happily stretched out my hand to high-fives with him. However, Lan Ge'er looked at me stretching out my palm and didn't know what it meant. Xiao Shenyan ran over and slapped me, and finally stretched out her scissors and said "yes". It was Xiao Yanzi who was too many of me, and she knew what I mean.

I immediately said, "This is what our hometown means to express good luck and victory."

Lan Ge'er nodded half-confusedly, and tried to stretch out his little hand. I stepped forward and hit her with a palm. After the high fives, Lan Ge'er inexplicably lowered her head and walked to the side as if shyly.

But I suddenly felt that his little hands were very soft and warm. I couldn't help but say happily: "Hey, the touch feels good."

That night, a group of more than 20 people, an average age of thirteen, started a large-scale peanut pulverization activity. Everyone worked hard for the middle of the night and finally collected nearly acre of peanuts from nearly acre of land.
