Chapter 327 Oil Pressing [2]
Time passed by like flowing water, and another year passed in the blink of an eye.
Su Jinse carried a small basket up the mountain to pick dogwood, and rhubarb followed her and ran huh.
Nowadays, rhubarb is very strong, with soft and smooth hair, and her body is not as dirty as other native dogs.
Because it knows that the owner loves to be clean, it cannot be dirty, and the owner will dislike it.
Su Jinse was walking while feeding Dahuang a piece of pork jerky.
This pork jerky was just produced this year. It is much simpler to make pork jerky than canned meat, so Su Jinse suggested that her parents make pork jerky first.
Moreover, this pork jerky is sold to Beijing. There are not many people buying it in Zhongyun County because the ingredients are expensive and time-consuming. Only some wealthy families or a few outsiders in the county will buy it to taste it. Ordinary people don’t know how to buy it.
However, the sales of this pork jerky are very short of money in the capital. There are many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, and the most important thing is silver.
So in addition to potatoes, soybeans and corn, Zhang Tiezhu's family started to harvest pigs.
During this year, Zhang Tiezhu's workshop was expanded repeatedly. Finally, he moved to the back mountain, bought a mountain, and built a large workshop here, including making potato flour, soybean oil and corn oil, and making pork jerky. Now Li's father and mother will come to help every day, which is considered a long-term worker.
The monthly wage is the same as other long-term workers. He cannot favor his relatives and process more money because of this, but he can give his father-in-law and mother-in-law more things in private.
Suddenly, I heard a sad cry coming from not far away.
Su Jinse was curious and walked over. She saw Zhang Yufang sitting on the grass crying. Zhang Yuhe hugged her, "Sister, it really doesn't work, let's run away! We were young before and had nowhere to go, but now we are old, I believe that with our hands we won't starve to death!"
Zhang Yufang wiped her tears and shook her head, "Sister, you don't know how sinister the world outside is. Even if we escape and have no household registration, we will be treated as refugees and will be arrested by bandits, let alone be used as long-term workers for others. No one dares to ask for us."
Upon hearing this, the light in Zhang Yuhe's eyes immediately dimmed.
She gritted her teeth hatefully, "Then let's go and steal the household."
Zhang Yufang shook her head, "The households that cannot be stolen are kept by grandma and locked up."
Zhang Yuhe was anxious and said, "This is not possible, that is not possible. What should we do? Even if we are arrested, it would be better than letting you marry a thirty-year-old fool? It is said that the fool is not only stupid, but also ugly, with a crooked mouth and can't find a wife, so his family is willing to take out twenty taels of silver to marry a wife."
Zhang Yufang wiped her tears and looked at her in shock: "How did you know?"
She only knew that the man was a fool, and she didn't know the others.
Zhang Yuhe gritted his teeth, "When grandma and mother were talking to her last night, I heard that grandma and mother were really too much. They sold you for twenty taels of silver, and they didn't even care about your happiness!"
Zhang Yufang looked sad, and she didn't expect her grandmother and mother to be so cruel.
Zhang Yuhe said: "Sister, that's your lifelong happiness!"
