In the northwest, in a small town with very ordinary conditions, a young couple often come to deliver mushrooms and prey to the restaurants in the town.

Occasionally, there will be four or five rabbits and some expensive mushrooms. If you have good luck, you can sell for four or five hundred cents at a time.

Today, Gao Shan knocked on the restaurant door again. When the other party saw that his hands were full, the woman beside him was also carrying a big basket on his back, he smiled.

"Oh, this time I got a good harvest."

"fine."

The waiter smiled and took the young couple to the kitchen and started ordering things.

"Well, this kind of mushroom is not as good as last time." The waiter said with some slight scruples. "The guests were very satisfied with the dishes and soup made with that kind of mushroom. The quality you brought this time is not as good as last time, and it is probably going to affect our business."

As soon as he heard this, Gao Shan's face changed. His wife smiled and said, "I have been taken care of by my brother. I will give you the mushrooms to you at 8 cents a pound this time."

The waiter was satisfied when he heard this.

Although this mushroom is not of good quality, it is not cheap either. It usually costs more than ten cents per pound. Then I will tell the shopkeeper that it is collected for ten cents per pound, and he can still get some money.

"My sister-in-law is happy... These mushrooms are 3 pounds in total, and there are 24 cents in total. The remaining mushrooms are too ordinary, seven pounds, three cents per pound, and a total of 21 cents, which is 45 cents in total."

"This rabbit... has a total of 360 cents, plus those mushrooms, a total of 4 strings of 5 cents."

"Here, for you."

Gao Shan had a cold face and didn't speak, but his skin was dark, even if he had a calm face, he couldn't tell. In addition, he was always silent, and most of his wife spoke when he came out, so the other party didn't see anything unusual.

Gao Shan’s wife took the money and then quietly put the five cents into the waiter’s hands. “Thank you, my hard work, thank you for your care these days.”

As soon as I touched the copper coins, the waiter's face instantly improved. After saying a few polite words to Gaoshan's wife, I felt even more happy.

The couple came and were heavy when they left, and when they left, they were only empty.

"I'll carry it on my back."

Although it was just an empty basket, Gao Shan was not holding anything in his hand, so he stopped letting his wife take things.

Gaoshan’s wife glanced at his face and sighed: “Why, are you unhappy?”

"Yes." Gao Shan is an honest man and will not lie.

He was indeed unhappy.

One was the waiter's price reduction, and he gave him twenty cents less. The other was the five cents that his wife gave him in the end.

This totals only twenty-five cents. How can you not feel sorry for being able to buy two kilograms of meat?

"There is only one restaurant in our town. If we offend the waiter, we will have nowhere to sell these things in the future. Although it is okay to set up stalls in the market, it is also the same thing whether it can be sold or not. It is far less stable than selling them to restaurants."

Gaoshan’s wife has a gentle personality, but her face is a little yellow, but it can be seen that she looks quite good.

But when the skin was dark and yellow, five points of talent were taken.

Although the couple has different personalities, one is willing to explain patiently, the other is not angry and willing to listen to advice, so the young couple rarely quarrels.

"We have never offended him." Gao Shan's voice was muffled.

He took out so much money and wanted his temper, so he couldn't give it to him at that time!

Gaoshan's wife sighed, feeling that her husband was just a child in terms of human nature: "Gaoshan, we have never offended him, but can't you see that? He is a person who loves money and likes to take advantage of him. If we don't give him, I guess next time we come to deliver things, it will be difficult to sell."

You can't lose such a big investment just because you are reluctant to let go of these money, right?

Gao Shan also knew this truth, but he just took out so much money in one go, and he still felt very distressed.

Seeing Gao Shan like this, his wife also knew that he had to let him think about it slowly. After all, there was no need to always say it.

"Let's go and get medicine for my mother."

"good."

It cost 100 yuan to get the medicine, but it was only five days' worth of medicine. Looking at the three strings of money left in my hand, Gao Shan's wife thought about it and handed it to Gao Shan: "After going back, I will hide the money in the old place."

This is the case every time. Except for the money you spend on buying medicine, you will save half of the money and the remaining half will be subsidized for your household income.

But why did you make a bunch of money this time?

Facing Gao Shan's disagreement, Gao Shan's wife explained: "There are too few investments at home. Although you can earn some money by hunting up the mountain, it depends on luck and you can't make money all year round. So I thought about buying two piglets, buying some chickens and raising them. When the eldest, second, third and younger sisters were fine, they would dig weeds and feed them to the chickens and pigs. When the Chinese New Year is over, we will sell one and a half, and the remaining half is enough for us to eat pork for half a year. Can we also add some investments to the family, right?"

The main reason is that their family has no good land, only three acres of wasteland that have been opened up. Now they don’t dare to grow grain, and they are worried about spending all the money on seeds.

Just simply growing some vegetables or something.

"It's okay, you'll think carefully." Gao Shan nodded. He naturally wouldn't object to such things.

The couple went to the market and bought only two piglets and spent 140 cents! They spent another forty cents to buy eighteen chicks.

The pig lamb was placed in the backpack, but the little chicken spent another penny to buy a bamboo basket from the chicken seller.

"There is only nineteen cents left. Go and buy some half a kilogram of millet and some mixed noodles. There is no food at home."

Xiaomi is prepared for mother-in-law. If mother-in-law is in poor health, she has to eat some millet to raise.

It cost ten cents for half a pound of millet and eight cents for a pound of mixed noodles. This is the price that can be ground up after being persuaded.

It was the shop owner who saw that they were pitiful and agreed.

"Please give me a handful of sugar melons with the remaining penny. When I go back, let the sisters get one."

Every time I come to the market, Gaoshan’s wife will grit her teeth and squeeze out a few cents. If she has three or five cents, she will buy some good candy pieces. If she doesn’t have money, she will only buy a handful of candy melons. When she goes back, she will only buy one for each person and eat it.

It's all a heart, making the sisters sweet.

Gao Shan suddenly grabbed his wife's hand, looking very guilty and distressed: "It's really a pain for you."

"It's okay, we are husband and wife, don't..."

"A Liang!"

Xi Liangjun shouted, standing there in disbelief, looking at the old-fashioned dressed, with a sallow complexion on his face, and a basket serping on his arms, and a group of little chickens were chattering inside.

This scene subverted his imagination.
