"You are finally back."

Ming's father was alone at home. Although he had something to do, he was still thinking about his wife and children, and he couldn't live in peace while working.

It's hard to do things when you're restless. It's not much easier to do work for most of the day than it is for the whole morning.

"If you don't come back, I will go to the town to look for you."

He really had this intention, if it weren't for the expense of going to town.

Even if you can walk there by yourself, it still costs money to enter the town.

But on weekdays, the three of them go to the town to sell vegetables and come back before noon. Now it's almost dinner time and there is still no sign of Mingxiu and her daughter. Even Xie Zhan is missing. If no one is seen again,

Even if it costs money, you have to find it.

"We still have to buy stone tiles, but we don't have to come back later?" Ming's mother was a little funny. She was a lot older, but she was still as unstable as a young boy. She couldn't stand it after being away from home for a few hours.

?

"Aren't I worried about you?"

Ming's father was a little embarrassed. Although he had good intentions in thinking about his wife and daughter, when Ming's mother said it like this, it seemed like a child who couldn't live without others.

"Mom, I'm a little hungry. Let Xie Zhan and dad put these things away, and let's go cook."

"Okay, don't let me, Xiu'er, go hungry." Ming's mother tapped the tip of her nose lovingly.

Several people watched them all the way back to the village. When they saw them bringing back a cart of stone tiles, everyone knew that their family was about to become prosperous!

Most of the villagers in Tubao Village have thatched roofs, and few live in stone houses with tile roofs.

It’s one thing that the price of tiles is high, but it’s also because the stones are too heavy. Not only do they require materials to build, it’s not necessary. Those with better conditions will build houses with blue bricks and tiles. The ones that are not good are mud houses, houses, etc.

As long as you can live there.

In their opinion, what the Ming family did was just messing around. If they had the money to buy stones, they might as well save more and build a brick house.

Ming's father obviously couldn't handle such a big battle for their family. Everyone thought that the Ming family would hire people to do the work in the village.

I wonder if I can even take advantage of it at that time.

Smart people have very good calculations in their minds.

But no one thought that Mingxiu had no such thoughts at all.

Early the next morning, Ming's father took Xie Zhan to work. The two strong laborers built the house into shape in just one day.

Although it is still very sloppy, a house covered with tiles will not leak.

As for those stones, at Mingxiu's insistence, tall and thick courtyard walls were built.

No one can barge in without saying hello anymore. Even if there is such a person, they will find it immediately.

"It's nice to finally feel like a family."

Ming's father happily looked at his home which was brighter than before, and his heart was filled with joy.

Now that we have a home, life is gradually getting better.

Ever since Mingxiu regained consciousness, the life of the Ming family has been getting better and better day by day. Ming's father believed that Mingxiu was the daughter of the Wang family. He originally loved Mingxiu because she was his only daughter, but now he has 10% of it.

It can even be said that whatever Mingxiu says is whatever it is.

This was very rare in the feudal period. Although the Desert Kingdom did not have as strict requirements on women as the Southern Dynasties, it was unique for fathers to listen to their daughters.

"The vegetables in the fields are almost ready. Let's go to town again tomorrow."

Originally, everything they sold had to be picked from the mountains, so they only had to go out from time to time. Logically speaking, tomorrow should be the day to go to the mountains for picking.

Ming's father did not refuse, "I'll buy something good by the way. Our house has been renovated, so we should have something good to celebrate."

In fact, in such a situation, people from the village should be invited to join in the fun, but the Ming family really didn't have any good connections with anyone in Tubao Village. Even if they invited people to come, it would just be a meat bun beating a dog.

Therefore, even though Ming's father and Ming's mother knew in their hearts what was the best thing to do and the least to say, they still chose to celebrate behind closed doors.

I just ate a chicken today, and I want to eat good food tomorrow. Even the village chief’s family doesn’t have such food.

But no one in the Ming family had any intention of denying it. A great event indeed happened in their family.

After the meal, Xie Zhan and Mingxiu were cleaning up in the kitchen. He reminded in a low voice: "Those gangsters have been released. If they are still setting up a stall in the town tomorrow, they don't have to let anyone set it down again."

Zhang San and others could tell by looking at him that he was not a gentleman. A gangster could indeed do such a thing.

"The vegetables in the fields won't last long when they are grown. Do you think you won't go to town just because of this?" What's the difference between this and giving up eating because of choking? Today's events have already made her feel aggrieved. "As long as they dare to come, I won't go to town."

Let them lose their pants even if they are not wearing any!"

Xie Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. How could any girl talk like that?

"Although today's lawsuit went smoothly, there is some luck involved. If Zhao Qiao really makes up his mind to defend them against us, do you think County Magistrate Zhao will turn to you or his daughter?"

In the end, Mingxiu will get the best, but he also suffers a dumb loss and can't do anything.

"Then can't we go to town and set up a stall?"

Just because Zhao Qiao covets Xie Zhan, their family has to give up their livelihood?

Even if there is output from the fields now, they have to be sold in the town to exchange for money to buy food.

Otherwise, even if they have some savings now, it won't take long.

"Of course not." Xie Zhan looked at her confused. Why did this person think he was so useless? Even if it was for his own food rations, Xie Zhan would not want to interrupt the Ming family's livelihood because of Zhao Qiao.

, it's just to avoid the limelight temporarily, "Don't you know the shopkeeper of Xianxiang Restaurant in town? You can sell your vegetables to him for the time being, and when the limelight passes, you can set up a stall in the town again."

In fact, if possible, both Mingxiu and Xie Zhan would like to sign a long-term contract with a restaurant. After all, in this way, they will have stable buyers for their goods, and they will not have to rely on God in case the business fails.

Well, they have to drink the northwest wind.

But shopkeeper Xu from Xianxiang Building was too shrewd, and Mingxiu had no good impression of him due to his excessive price reduction earlier, so naturally he would not think of signing a contract with him.

"This is a solution in the short term."

Mingxiu finally agreed with his approach.

At least for now, this is the safest way.

Today's Ming family is so weak that anyone can step on it. Now Mingxiu is gradually standing up, but this kind of thing cannot be done by Mingxiu standing up alone. After all, in the eyes of outsiders,

The head of the family is still Ming's father, but he cannot stand up, and the Ming family is still subject to bullying.

But Ming's father has reached this age, and there is no way to change his temperament without a major blow, at least not in the short term. All Mingxiu can do is to avoid the sharp edges of others, so that his family can have a chance to keep a low profile and bide its time.
