The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Wei Wencheng opened the box, pointed at the silver inside and smiled at Li Yu: "They are all twelve ingots. Miss Li, after you count them, let's sign the contract."

Li Yu roughly counted and nodded with a smile, "It's okay to sign the contract, but I'm going to say something ugly in front of you. You do a lot of work, so you must hire someone to cook. If anyone leaks it, you can't rely on me. Also, If someone figures it out over time, you can't come to me. If you think what I say is reasonable, we will sign a contract, and I will tell you the formula after signing the contract."

Wei Wencheng discussed it with the man, nodded and said, "Okay, these are not your responsibilities."

Wei Wencheng wrote down the contract and also wrote down the two items mentioned by Li Yu. After the two of them pressed their fingerprints, Li Yu said with a smile: "Mr. Wei, please record it!"

Wei Wencheng took out a pamphlet, and Li Yu explained how to make each pickle. Wei Wencheng felt that he had figured it out, "You are using sugar to make it fresh, so what's the use of white wine?"

Li Yu smiled and said, "Liquor can be antiseptic and can slow down the deterioration of food."

Wei Wencheng suddenly realized, "Oh! So that's it! Miss Li is really a woman with a pure heart."

"You're sorry. I just want to live a better life. Do you still want the pickles?"

Wei Wencheng laughed, "Yes, why don't you want it? I can't get the food now!"

Wei Wencheng turned to Ah Sheng and told Ah Sheng, "Asheng, have someone drive the mule cart here."

Li Yu stood up, looked at Wei Wencheng and pointed at the silver, "Mr. Wei, I'll put the silver away first and go take the pickles out of the cellar."

Wei Wencheng nodded, "Okay, you can also wait for them to help you."

"No, I'm sorry." Li Yu picked up a box in one hand and walked towards the bedroom.

Wei Wencheng and the man watched dumbfoundedly as Li Yu walked into the main room with silver in his arms.

The man gestured at Li Yu's height, "Ha! I really didn't see it." Thinking about it, he felt pity, "If it's a man, let's take him with us."

Wei Wencheng smiled and said: "Young master, you don't know something. Most capable people and strangers like to hide in the countryside."

"Yeah! What you said makes sense." The two of them got up and went to the courtyard. Looking at the douban in the sauce vat, they smelled a salty aroma. Wei Wencheng pointed at the doubanjiang and said, "There must be white wine in it too."

The man smiled and pointed at Wei Wencheng, "You earned it."

Li Yu put the silver into the space and turned around to go to the side room. He took out some sauce jars from the space and stacked them in the two side rooms.

Ah Sheng brought several mule carts to Li Yu's house and loaded the pickles onto the mule cart with Li Yu. Li Yu took advantage of them not paying attention and put the sauce jar in the space in the side room and moved it out.

The villagers gathered around the door of Li Yu's house. Someone said: "Look, these are the pickles made by Xiaoyu and the others. I heard they sell very well, at twenty or thirty cents a jar! If Zhang Defa knew that Xiaoyu could make money like this , I wonder how angry you are?"

One person said with a smile: "I'm so angry that I can't fix it. Both families are in such trouble, so! This guy can't do anything right. Speaking of which, the Zhang family is asking for it."

Li Yu helped carry the pickles into the car and returned to the courtyard. Wei Wencheng gave her the money for the pickles, and the remaining pickles were sold for a total of more than 160 taels of silver.

Wei Wencheng took the man to say goodbye and left. The driver drove the mule cart and pulled the pickles toward the outside of the village.

After selling the pickles, Li Yu felt relieved and was about to go to Li Mei's place to have a look. Qian came back from the field behind with a hoe. When he saw Li Yu, he smiled and asked, "Xiaoyu, you're back!"

"I've been back for a while, Aunt Qian. After I sell out the pickles, I don't have to deliver them to Shunfeng Inn. I'll go talk to my aunt."

Qian didn't expect that when he came back from working for a while, Li Yu sold out the pickles and smiled happily, "I should tell her to make her happy too."

"Well! You ask Xiao An to take Lao Huang out for a walk."

"Hey!" Qian agreed and went to ask Xiao An to herd the cows.

Li Yu went back to the house, took out forty taels of silver, and took the pheasants and wild ducks to the place where Li Mei's family was building a house in Dongshan Village.

Li Yu arrived at Li Mei's house and saw Laidi sitting at the door with her head hanging down. She brought the wild duck and pheasant to her eyes and said, "Little Laidi, there is something delicious!"

Laidi looked up and saw Li Yu, and jumped up happily, "Cousin, you are here!"

Li Yu looked at Laidi, "What's wrong with little Laidi? She looks sad."

Laidi turned around and pointed inside the shed, and said with a look of disgust on her face: "My grandma is here and she is scolding my mother at my house."

Li Yu rushed in a few steps after hearing this, and heard an old woman pointing at Li Mei's nose and scolding: "Sangmenxing, occupying the manhole and not shitting, what's the use of having such a well-maintained house? The third child will adopt his son to you. You still don’t want to…”

Li Yu saw Liu Changmin squatting there with his head in his hands, and Li Mei looked at the old woman with her head raised and a stubborn look on her face.

Li Yu felt sad and called out, "Aunt." Li Mei shed tears as soon as she saw Li Yu. Li Yu went over to hug her, turned to look at Liu Changmin and said coldly: "Uncle, find someone to write the IOU. Are you okay? My brothers have to settle the accounts openly! Your family stayed at my house for more than a month. The food money for more than a month and the money to repair the house totaled 40 taels, which means you can pay 50 taels a year. At the end of the year, we will pay you fifty taels with principal and interest, but we have agreed that you should not default on the debt!"

After hearing this, Liu Changmin stood up quickly and said, "Xiaoyu, I'm sorry for you. My uncle forgot about it while he was busy. I'm going to find someone to help me write it."

"Write whatever you want, you are stupid!" Mrs. Liu grabbed Liu Changmin and refused to let him go. Li Yu went over and pinched her wrist. Mrs. Liu felt the pain and quickly let go of Liu Changming.

Li Yu grabbed her and said, "You disrespectful old woman, do you want to default on your debt? Who didn't know that my uncle's family had left home without a clean life? I lent my aunt money to repair the house, and you let your grandson live in it. "Li Yu watched her spread her hands and sneered, "Okay! I'll leave as soon as you get the money."

Mrs. Liu curled her lips and said, "I don't owe you any money. You can pay it back to whoever borrowed it."

Li Yu picked up a wooden stick, waved it in front of Mrs. Liu's eyes, and broke the stick into two pieces. Li Yu played with the two sticks and said with a slight smile: "You didn't mean to let your grandson live there." Come in and take care of my aunt and the others? If you don’t have anything to do, wait until your grandson comes to live here, and I’ll find your grandson to pay him back slowly.”

Mrs. Liu was dumbfounded and said: "Who would come to his house to help him pay back the money?" Mrs. Liu pushed Li Yu away and walked out.

Li Mei then looked at Li Yu and said, "Yu'er, why did you remember this place?"

Li Yu swallowed what he was about to say, "I sold all the pickles to Mr. Wei, and I just wanted to come to your place to have a look." Li Yu pointed to the half-renovated house, "Why are you so slow in repairing it? You can see it right now." It’s time to do hard labor.”

Li Mei shed tears with an angry look on her face, "Old godly woman, you come here every now and then to stir things up, insisting on adopting the youngest son of the third family to us. Can a seven or eight-year-old child be able to support a family? Besides, what about his family? I don’t want my child to be pampered into such a virtuous manner.”

"You have to take out the IOU for whoever comes over from now on, and whoever stays here will pay back the money."

Li Mei burst into tears and smiled, "You still have a way."

Liu Changmin went to the patriarch's house and asked him to help write an IOU. He took it back home and handed it to Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, it's better to have an IOU to keep them safe so they don't have to worry about it."

Li Mei rolled her eyes at Liu Changmin and took the IOU, "It's not your fault. I used to listen to your mother. Look, why doesn't she bully the second son's family?"

Liu Changmin looked at Li Mei and smiled flatteringly, "Amei, Xiaoyu has brought wild ducks and pheasants, and Zhaodi is cleaning them up! Go and help."

Li Yu also smiled and said to Li Mei: "Aunt, don't blame uncle, hurry up and repair the house, otherwise what will happen when the rainy season comes!"

Li Mei and Li Yu came outside the shed. Li Yu said to Li Mei, "Aunt, I'm going back. Please come home when you have time."

Li Mei nodded and didn't try to persuade Li Yu to stay, watching her walk away.
