Chapter 140: Chapter 142: Busy Making Money

Winter days are short, usually involving them rising before dawn and coming home only after nightfall. Now they often worked into midnight inside their own greenhouse.

Upon entering the greenhouse, the two brothers removed their cotton-padded jackets. To be honest, besides feeling a little chilly on the road, it was warm inside the greenhouse and not cold at all. Without a break, the two brothers began picking tomatoes. By the time dawn arrived, they had picked about two big boxes. They also had one big box of cucumbers.

While it was still dark, the brothers took two boxes of tomatoes and a big box of cucumbers left over from yesterday to the wholesale market across the street to sell.

As soon as the Tang brothers’ tricycle arrived, it was surrounded by a crowd of vegetable vendors.

Once weighed, there were thousands of jin of tomatoes and more than two hundred jin of cucumbers.

Just from this sale, they made nearly two thousand yuan.

If this was in the past, earning two thousand yuan would have rendered these two brothers stunned. However, after the initial success of growing coriander and having sold greenhouse vegetables for half a month, although the amount was large, the brothers were not that surprised. After counting the money, they went back to the field without taking a break.

As the money was within sight, they were not worried about thieves. Because they were making money, they didn’t feel tired at all. After they returned home, they continued to work in the field.

Around eight o’clock, Zhang Xiangcao came by with the two children.

The Tang brothers had eaten and regained their strength. They still busied themselves in the field.

Zhang Xiangcao rolled up her sleeves and went over to help.

As for Tang Yuxin, she sat with Sisi on the side. If they were not messing around, it was the best help they could give.

At noon, Zhang Xiangcao took the two children back home to cook. They had earned money recently, so of course they ate better. The work in the field was heavy and plentiful. They could not stand it if they did not eat well.

“Mommy, Sisi wants to eat meat,” Sisi demanded, lifting her small foot continuously.

Zhang Xiangcao touched Sisi’s little head. “Okay, our Sisi will have meat in a while.”

Sisi laughed and split open her little mouth, “Meat is for Daddy and Uncle.”

Tang Yuxin listened and couldn’t help laughing along. Sisi’s sweet little mouth was better at calling “Daddy” and “Uncle” each passing day.

At noon, after the brothers had eaten some food and rested for a while, they got up again in less than half an hour. Indeed, after making money, everything else was left behind. How could they sleep with so much money in hand every day? Even if they did fall asleep, they would wake up laughing.

After about ten days of such busyness, it was the 28th of the lunar calendar. The vegetables from the Tang family were still in high demand, and the brothers Tang Zhinian had more than 40,000 yuan in hand. After the New Year, although vegetable prices would fall somewhat, these rare vegetables would still be expensive. The crops from these few acres would earn them sixty to seventy thousand yuan. Now, not to mention sixty to seventy thousand, even ten thousand was a huge amount of money.

“Let’s go, Sisi, Daddy is taking us to buy new clothes for the New Year.”

Tang Zhijun held his daughter in one hand and draped his other arm over Zhang Xiangcao’s shoulder, “It’s been hard on you these days. We won’t deal with vegetables today. I will take you two to the city to buy clothes and prepare some New Year’s goods.”

“Okay,” Zhang Xiangcao’s eyes reddened, she truly saw a ray of hope in their lives. She did not think about how much money they could have in hand. All she had in mind was to have a man at home, like today, who could hold their daughter and tell her, ‘We are going to buy new clothes for the New Year.’

With his family in tow, Tang Zhijun rode the tricycle to go clothes shopping. Originally, he wanted to take Tang Yuxin and Tang Zhinian as well, but Tang Yuxin held back Tang Zhinian from going.

“Why, Xinxin doesn’t want new clothes?”

Tang Zhinian was an honest person, of course not as cunning as Tang Yuxin.

Of course she wanted. Tang Yuxin had new clothes every year. With so much money earned this year, how could she shop any less? Girls love to dress up, of course, and she was no different. Though she didn’t grow up to be very good-looking, she still wanted to buy new clothes. The E-point is not enough, just use clothes to support it.

“Why don’t you go then?” Tang Zhinian touched his daughter’s little head and asked.

Tang Yuxin really felt that her father was too honest, so honest it almost brought her to tears. No wonder he was deceived by the Wei family in his past life.

“Dad, it’s the first New Year for Uncle and Auntie. Let them go out as a family. What are we going there for? To act as third wheels?”

“There are spare bulbs at home, we don’t need to make them. Besides, we don’t know how to.” Tang Zhinian thought for a moment. He had bought several spare bulbs for the house. If they ran out, they could disassemble and use the ones in the field. He didn’t have the skills to make bulbs.

Tang Yuxin covered her face. There really was a generation gap.

Tang Zhinian sighed and no longer grappled with the matter of bulbs.

“Xinxin, it’s already the 28th now. If you want to buy something next year, no one would sell it to you.”

“Let’s walk there and buy a tricycle when we arrive.” The family didn’t dare to spend money before, or to buy any household goods. Now that Tang Zhijun had married and had a child, they could afford to buy another tricycle. One tricycle was not really enough. Plus, they would grow crops like tomatoes next year, so it was better to buy another.

“Let’s go, Daddy will take you to see tricycles.”

“Good.” Tang Yuxin, delighted, clung to Tang Zhinian’s hand. Even if they had to walk, she was willing. Plus, it was almost the New Year, and the festive atmosphere was everywhere. Everyone was happy, and even the road seemed to have become windier. Tang Yuxin wore a very thick cotton-padded jacket today, looking like a little bear, so chubby that she could hardly walk.

Tang Zhinian took his daughter directly to a place selling tricycles. At this time, a tricycle was about three hundred yuan each. Which family in the village didn’t have one? It was essential household goods. Even without other things, a tricycle was a must.

“Daddy, let’s buy this one.”

Tang Yuxin ran straight to a green electric tricycle. This was a very sturdy tricycle, its manufacture quality was much higher than those made later, the materials used were very solid, and it was also very durable. It was no problem to use one for ten or so years.
