Chapter 248: Sending Money

Bai Zhi is happy, since everyone takes care of her, let's enjoy the feeling of being preferentially treated and cared for. After all, she is just a little girl in front of them now.

Perhaps this privilege, as she grew older, would not last long.

The four of them worked, and they were all good at work, and they didn't spend too much time filling the bags they brought with them.

This kind of cloth bag was sewn by Zhao Lan herself. They came to dig up half a bag of soil melons yesterday and weighed it at home. Half a bag is 25 catties, a bag is 50 catties, and Angelica brought five bags. , filled with five bags of melons, a total of one hundred and twenty-five catties.

Before leaving, the helper's woman reminded Bai Zhi: "Girl Zhi, don't you make a mark in the field?"

Bai Zhi puzzled: "Make a mark? Why make a mark?"

The woman said: "Girl Zhi, you are still young and don't know many things, which is understandable. My aunt tells you that these people in our village seem to be friendly on the surface, but everyone has their own differences in their hearts. The idea of ​​​​now everyone is having a hard time, the green wheat is not yet mature, but your turmeric is one step ahead, someone wants to face, maybe they will not think about your turmeric, but you must know, we There are many shameless people in the village."

Bai Zhi understands that when it comes to shameless people, she first thinks of the Bai family. The Bai family is notorious for being shameless. Maybe they will come to beat the idea of ​​​​hering the melons in her field.

"Okay, I'll make a mark." She went back to the field, picked up a stone and made a few marks in the field. As long as someone moved the melon here, she could tell by looking at the mark, and the other places had not moved. over the soil.

When the group returned to the village, Bai Zhi took fifty copper plates and gave them twenty-five to two women and two catties of melon.

The two women were overjoyed: "If you agreed to have twenty copper coins, why did you give five more?"

Bai Zhi smiled and said: "You have worked hard today, so consider it as a reward on the first day of harvest. There are still two catties of melons, you can take them back to eat, remember, eat them as soon as possible, if you leave them for a long time, the melons will sprout. Or if it turns blue, you can no longer eat it, remember."

The two women suddenly understood, "It turns out that the people who were poisoned by eating melons were all because of eating sprouted melons?"

Another woman replied: "No wonder, I said, I also planted some melons in the field at the time, our family ate a lot of them, and we didn't see any poisoning. When there was this rumor, I I still didn’t believe it, but it was really crazy afterward, so I didn’t dare to believe it, so it was because of this.”

Bai Zhi said: "Tugua is a good thing, don't waste it."

The two women thanked them and went back. They couldn't keep their mouths shut all the way, and they couldn't help showing off when they met someone.

But don't show off, their men sometimes find odd jobs, and they can't earn so much money after working hard all day. They just follow the girl to dig a little bit of dirt, and they get so much wages, which is more cost-effective.

This matter soon spread to the Bai family, and the old lady Bai was so angry that she threw the stool, "This dead girl, who has the opportunity to make money, doesn't know how to think about her two uncles, but she gave the money to those irrelevant people for nothing. I'm dead."

Liu Shi said with added contentment: "Not only money, but also zucchini. We wanted to order her zucchini, but we were humiliated by her left and right before we even opened our mouths."
