"It's a gold ingot, it's a big vase." Mrs. Li couldn't resist Li Xiaokui, so she told Li Xiaokui about finding the vase.

Li Xiaokui was taken aback.

"50 taels, my God, all the silver I've seen in my life has never exceeded five taels."

"Okay, please keep your voice down, don't you understand if you don't reveal your wealth."

"Mother, mother." Li Xiaokui hugged Mrs. Li's arm, "Give me some."

Mrs. Li frowned, "What do you want money for?"

"I'll buy some rouge powder..."

"If you want to buy it yourself, your eldest brother dug this vase, not me. How to spend the money must be decided by your sister-in-law."

"Tch, are you my mother?"

Mrs. Li continued to hold the soles of her shoes, "I'll wait until you get married. What do country girls do with those things?"

"Hmph, mother, otherwise, I'll move back from my second brother's place, and I'll live with you."

Mrs. Li frowned, "Don't make trouble, your eldest brother has many children, so there is no place for you. Besides, you were the one who was willing to live with your second brother when the family was separated, and you will run back now." What is it like?"

"You are not my mother."

"I'm a stepmother." Mrs. Li deliberately said seriously.

"I'm leaving."

"Wait a minute."

"What?"

"You, there is one more thing I want to tell you. The daughter-in-law of the Xu family came and sat down yesterday and said that she wanted to tell you about a marriage."

"What family? Are you rich?"

"Wealth is not rich, it's just an ordinary farmer's family. However, a new house was built to marry a wife. There are not many brothers. There are only three brothers. I will tell you that he is the boss. He is tall and capable, just like your elder brother." , and honestly."

Li Xiaokui became less interested the more he listened, "It's just this kind of family, and the people from the Xu family don't know how to tell me a better one."

"It's not good."

"I don't want to farm, mother, I want to marry in the town. Snowflake, who is as big as me in our village, got married in the town. That husband's family is a wine seller and opened a shop."

"You're just envious of him, that kid Xuehua is so capable, just like you..."

"Hey!" Li Xiaokui became impatient, "Why do you always say I'm not good, I really can't stay any longer, I'm leaving."

"Hey, let's meet what your sister-in-law Xu said?"

"No see!" Li Xiaokui's voice came from outside coldly.

Mrs. Li sighed, "Oh..."

"Grandma, what's the matter? What's wrong with Xiaokui?" Sun Cuihua looked at Li Xiaokui's back and asked.

"Oh, don't worry about her, I spoiled her. When she becomes an old girl, she will know how to worry!"

-

The days fly by.

In a blink of an eye, it is the time of the New Year.

The whole village was full of firecrackers.

In the lively atmosphere of fireworks and firecrackers, the Li family had a lively and lively new year.

After visiting relatives for a few days after the new year, Li Xibao followed Sun Cuihua to her grandfather's house, and then to her aunt Li Hehua's house. She got a bunch of lucky money every time she went to a house.

Days passed, and soon the Lantern Festival passed.

The nearby schools also officially resumed studying.

Li Dashan led the five of them, Xiao Chong and Da Hu, to the school.Although a child has to hand in [-] copper coins a year, Li Dashan doesn't feel distressed at all. He only thinks that he has to train a group of children who can read and write, and he is very happy when he thinks about it.

But all five of the elder brothers went to school, and Li Xibao was the only one left in the Li family.

Li Xibao suddenly became lonely, squatting next to the chicken coop to play with Xiaohua and Xiaohei when he was free.

In the evening, Xiao Chong and the others came back to study at home, and Li Xibao was listening beside them.

Li Xibao babbled and quickly learned a few thousand-character prose.

It made the Li family members laugh from ear to ear.

One day, Li Xibao was sitting on the edge of the bed playing with a rattle, and Sun Cuihua called Li Dashan back from outside.

"Daughter-in-law, what are you calling me for? I'm chopping firewood."

"You can only be good at that, you know how to chop firewood."

"What's the matter?"

"Let me tell you, the last time I went back to my mother's house, I heard from my brother and the others that this ordinary peasant family earns very little by farming, and they can still make money by doing business."

"Scholar, farmer, businessman, just do business."

"Don't be so hard-headed, look at the rich man Zhou in the town, which one only relies on land collection to collect rent, and has business in hand."

"Then what shall we do?" Li Dashan asked.

Li Xibao also dropped the rattle drum and listened.

In terms of this family, Sun Cuihua is the backbone, able to make up his mind and handle affairs.

"I've also been thinking about it for a few days. I originally thought about raising pigs and chickens. If there are too many, we will take them to the city and sell them. But think about it, it will take a year and a half for the piglets to grow up. , the time is too long."

"Then what do you want to do?" Li Dashan scratched his head.

"Stupid, don't I still have some skills? I can make wine and cook vegetables. My natal family sells a lot of pork, and there are ways. Let's open a small restaurant."

"Hey, don't say it, it's really okay." Li Dashan nodded repeatedly.

Li Xibao's eyes lit up too.

Is her house going to open a restaurant?

That's great, I won't be able to eat endless croquettes in the future.

"Daughter-in-law, look at Xi Bao, she is also very happy."

"We, Xi Bao, know everything, don't we, Xi Bao?"

"Open, open, restaurant." Li Xibao said in a childish voice.

"Yes, open the restaurant."

"Dang, dang, boss."

"Hahaha, Xibao is right, we want to be the boss!"

"Then when shall we go to town and have a look?"

"It's not too late, let's go tomorrow." Sun Cuihua glanced at Xi Bao with a smile, "Let's take Xi Bao with us!"

Xi Bao is a lucky dumpling, it must be right to bring her along.

Early the next morning, after seeing off the five scholars, Li Xibao was carried on Li Dashan's shoulders, and the family of three arrived in Niutou Town.

There are many front shops in the town, one next to the other.Among them, many front shops are deserted.

Sun Cuihua inquired with others, and it turns out that not all businessmen can make money. Some people rent a shop without making any money for a year, and then stop renting in the second year, so there are many empty shops every spring. .

This is also the time when rent is cheapest.

What a coincidence, such a good opportunity is waiting for them.

Sun Cuihua asked the prices of several companies in a row, and the prices were all about the same.

"Daughter-in-law, which one should we rent?" Li Dashan was confused.

Don't say that Li Dashan was confused, and Sun Cuihua couldn't make a decision.

''Xi Bao! "

Suddenly, Li Dashan and Sun Cuihua called Li Xibao in unison.

Li Xibao was so startled that his hair almost exploded.

"Xi Bao, hehe, mother's sweetheart, tell me, which shop can we rent to be prosperous?"

This……

Li Xibao really doesn't know...

After all, she doesn't know Feng Shui either.

So she pointed with her little hand casually.

"Okay!" Sun Cuihua made the decision, "Let's choose this room based on my daughter's advice."

"Daughter-in-law, this one is a little more expensive."

"What the hell, it's whoever my daughter says it is!"

Sun Cuihua stepped into the threshold of the shop, and after discussing with the owner inside, she wrote down the rental matters clearly in black and white that day.

The shop was rented by the Li family after paying the money with fingerprints.
