    Dongqing exchanged four taels of silver for half of the deed of betrayal from Wang. She overlapped the two halves of the deed of betrayal and looked at it for a long time.

    From now on, she is free.

    Dongqing turned to Jin Yu who was copying books carefully at the side, "Can you please do me a favor?"

    Jinyu raised her eyes, "Huh? That's what you say."

    Dongqing pushed the deed of sale to Jin Yu, "Write on the back that the person named in the contract paid the money to redeem himself, so the deed is held by the person named in the contract."

    "Is there anything else to write?" Jinyu finished writing this paragraph on the deed of sale according to Dongqing's instructions. He thought that Dongqing was going to tear up the deed of sale when he got it back, but he didn't expect to fight it back again.

    Dongqing shook his head, "That's enough. All you need to do is put your fingerprint behind this."

    ¡°With Li Ergou¡¯s fingerprint, it means that she has redeemed herself, and no one can put her whereabouts to prevent others from taking advantage of the loophole to make trouble.

    "However, she is still a slave. When she collects the money and becomes a peasant, the deed of sale can be completely destroyed. She will truly be a person, not a commodity.

    Having resolved the issue of ownership of the sale of her body, Dongqing feels a little more relieved. She no longer has to worry about being resold at any time, and she has no idea whether the next family will be good or bad.

    Sitting on the edge of the bed, he took out the remaining silver and calculated it. Seventeen taels and three taels of silver were used to redeem his life. There were still thirteen taels and three taels left. Adding in the few jobs he had taken on these days, it was thirteen taels and three taels.  Four denarii.

    Dongqing followed what she said and took the longevity lock to the pawn shop in the town to pawn it for two taels of silver, which added up to a total of fifteen taels and four cents.

    On the way back, she spent four taels on fabric and silk thread, and now she has fifteen taels left in her hand, which is still one tael short of enough to pay for the tax money she lacks.

    With the fabric and silk thread she bought, Dongqing is going to embroider purses and make shoes, and sell them in the market, which will bring in a lot more customers than just sitting at home and attracting a lot of customers.

    There are only two villages in this town that are seriously affected by natural disasters, and Qingshuigou is among them. The remaining villages are not as good as Qingshuigou, but in the past two years they have surpassed Qingshuigou. There will definitely be many people willing to buy purse-embroidered shoes at the market.

    It won¡¯t be long before she can save enough money to pay taxes and some benefits to the county magistrate.

    Jin Yu, who was sitting at the table, saw Dongqing looking at the small pile of silver in a daze. He put down the book in his hand and walked to Dongqing's side. He took out a small piece of broken silver from his arms, which cost about six yuan. He was selling pheasants these days.  The wild boar bought the candle and what was left.

    Jinyu put a small piece of silver into Dongqing's hand, "Here's this for you."

    ?Perhaps because modern common people do not have to pay taxes, Jin Yu feels that the taxes and corvees in Li are quite heavy. Fortunately, it is more humane. In places where there is a famine, taxes will be reduced or reduced according to the severity of the situation.

    "What are you doing for me? I don't want it from you." Dongqing pushed the money back. Others already had slight opinions about not handing over her money to the public. If Jinyu gave her his own money again, those opinions would be expanded.

    After hearing Dongqing¡¯s concerns, Jinyu thought about it and felt that it made sense.

    But he and Dongqing worked in the fields during the day, and lit candles at night. He copied books and studied under Dongqing's guidance. Besides Dongqing's guidance, he also had to be a female celebrity.

    They do as much work as anyone else in the family during the day, and they have no involvement in the income from the fields except for eating.

    Dongqing and his money are all extra money earned through hard work.

    ¡° Moreover, Jinyu bought the salt and meat with extra money, so there is no reason for the family to worry about their money.

    Jin Yu said: "We can't hand over our money, not even a penny. Everyone has inertia. At the beginning, we can still give money without delaying work. They may feel sorry, but as time goes by, they will take it for granted as they get used to it.  By then, no matter what happens at home, they will become accustomed to relying on us.¡±

    What Jin Yu said is not unreasonable. If the influence develops to this extent, people will become accustomed to relying on people who can help them. Jin Yu and Dongqing cannot harden their hearts and abandon them. The more they lend a helping hand, the more likely they are to help.  The worse it gets.

    This situation can be seen everywhere, and it is not good for anyone. Many people do not take precautions before they happen. The stronger the stronger, the weaker the weak. Over time, it will lead to psychological imbalance and antagonism between siblings.

    Dongqing frowned, "Butif we had abandoned it from the beginning, they would still feel dissatisfied. We had the ability to make money, but we ignored brotherhood and didn't give them a penny."

    ??The ancients valued clans, and when the time came, the elders would take care of the younger ones. When a family was prosperous, they always had to lend a helping hand to the clan.

    If they don¡¯t pull out any hair, I¡¯m afraid that in addition to being an unbalanced big dog, Jin Yu¡¯s parents will also feel that Jin Yu is not close.Love will also lead to the consequences of not being close to relatives.

    Whenever interests are involved, there will always be some estrangement.

    Jin Yu suddenly smiled and said, "Who said that you have to give money directly when lending a helping hand? It is better to teach a person to fish than to give him a fish."

    Dongqing is flexible and can tell the truth, "You can't teach people how to fish in embroidery. It requires years of accumulation. Moreover, my sister-in-law and my mother's hands have deformed and rough joints due to years of hard work, and they will scrape up the satin embroidery thread.  It¡¯s suitable for delicate work such as embroidery. But I know a lot of snacks with fresh tastes. I can teach my sister-in-law how to make them to ensure they are novel and easy to eat. The sales will be very good, and they are easier to sell than purses and shoes.¡±

    Jinyu looked at Dongqing¡¯s shining eyes, her heart suddenly felt soft, and she said softly: ¡°Dongqing, what else can¡¯t you do?¡±

    "Me? I'm not good at farm work. These days, I always feel that I'm not strong enough. My fingers still hurt. The mud has made my hands a little thicker. I'm worried that my hands will be deformed and I may no longer be able to hold embroidery needles in the future." Holly  Looking at his hands, he answered seriously.

    Jinyu's strong arms held Dongqing into her arms and touched Dongqing's soft hair, "Fool, I said you don't have to follow me to the fields. I have plenty of strength. I will support you. You just need to be my husband at home.  "

    Jinyu¡¯s voice shook her chest, and it was imprinted on Dongqing¡¯s body through the thin clothes. Dongqing felt that the shock made her whole body numb. She struggled to break free, but failed.

    "You, please let me go first before you speak! Who is the fool? My mother and sister-in-law are both women, so why can't I do what they do? I also want to eat, how can I treat myself better?"

    Jinyu took Dongqing's hand and touched it, "Well it's indeed a lot rougher. Your hands have greater value. Doing farm work has deformed them. It's not a wise move. You can talk to your sister-in-law about snacks tomorrow.  If this thing is successful, neither my sister-in-law nor you will have to go to the fields, and the money you will make will be much more than if you go to the fields."

    "Yeah." Dongqing nodded, took back her hand, and thought about going to the market to purchase materials another day. She provided the cost and skills, and Cuizhi followed suit.

    After the business is started, the daily expenses will be paid out of the income, and the remaining expenses will be shared equally with Cuizhi. In this way, Dafang will have income other than crops, and he will be grateful to her.

    Speaking of extra income, Jin Yu¡¯s traps haven¡¯t trapped wild animals for several days.

    The strange thing is that every time he goes to look, some traps are triggered from time to time, but there is nothing tied to them.

    Jinyu thought that he should find another place to set up a trap. Otherwise, if he continued like this, he would not even be able to afford his own pen, ink, and paper, and how could he help Dongqing raise money to become a citizen.

    The craft of holly embroidery has spread in Qingshuigou these days, not because Cuizhi often wears those shoes. Cuizhi has to go to work in the fields, so the shoes have been washed and put in the cabinet.

    The spread of this story is all thanks to the village chief¡¯s three daughters-in-law. All three of them are show-off owners. Once the shoes are finished, they can¡¯t wait to put them on their feet and walk around.

    Therefore, Dongqing came to Dongqing for a few more jobs. When Jin Yu was studying in the evening, Dongqing embroidered the patterns and colors.

    The female relatives of the uncle's family next door were a little bit uneasy. A few days after they found out that the shoes were embroidered with holly, Mrs. Zhao and her three daughters-in-law came to visit Old Man Li's house.

    While chatting, Mrs. Zhao brought the topic to Dongqing and said to Mrs. Wang: "Osmanthus, your family has found a treasure this time. I thought it was cheap but not good, but I didn't expect that you only have three taels of silver.  It¡¯s rare to be able to buy back someone like Holly.¡±

    Mrs. Wang was a little proud, "That's not true. Our holly grows well and we are capable. The key is that it is clean."

    ???????????????????????????.

    Ms. Zhao was surprised for a moment and spat secretly. She was just lucky and happened to buy a clean one.

    On the face, Mrs. Wang smiled heartily, "That's right, everyone in Qingshuigou has seen Dongqing's ability. Tsk, tsk, tsk, that's amazing! But these outsiders have all put on holly embroidered shoes, we  My family has not appreciated it in person, so it seems a little unreasonable."

    "That's not true. The shoes Dongqing first made were given to Cuizhi. Dongqing and Cuizhi have a good relationship. It's not like other families where the sisters-in-law quarrel."

    The more Mrs. Wang talked, the more she felt that her two daughters-in-law were on par with each other, and she was all elated, "Besides, before Dongqing came to our house, she was the maid of Princess Xiang. The one with savings added to the three taels of silver we bought her back.  , there¡¯s still one or two more!¡±

    "There is such a good thing!?"

    "When Mrs. Wang said this, she envied Mrs. Zhao and her three daughters-in-law. They might spend their whole lives never meeting someone like Princess Xiang.

    What¡¯s more, when Old Man Li¡¯s family marries a daughter-in-law, they don¡¯t need to pay a bride price, but the daughter-in-law pays one tael in return.

    It¡¯s just that she doesn¡¯t have to deal with her in-laws. This wife is quite capable and is a chicken that can lay golden eggs.

    They inevitably turned around and took a closer look at Dongqing sitting beside them. They had temporarily forgotten their original intention of coming to Old Man Li's house, which was to let Dongqing make embroidered shoes for them.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Things.
