Chapter 51: Make Money Plan
“However, even if they wanted to take advantage, that family isn’t easy to bully.”
A group of people immediately leaned closer: “What’s going on, tell us quickly.”
“My sister-in-law’s maternal home is in Bai Lang Village. Da Ya’s mother-in-law is very formidable. Because her son was lame, their family was often gossiped about in the village. When Da Ya’s mother-in-law found out, she directly chased after those who gossiped about her family with a stick, chasing the people who bullied her son all over the village.
Every time someone bullied her son, she would go to their house and stand at their doorway, scolding them for half an hour without repeating a single word. It’s said she’s very fierce, and few people in their village dare to provoke their family.”
“Tsk tsk tsk… Hearing you say that, I really want to see Cai Jinhua go to their house and get scolded.”
Not only did they want to see it, but Yun Jiao also wanted to see it.
It’s a shame they aren’t in the same village, so they can’t see it at all.
While they were chatting, three dogs and five cats were already lying at Yun Jiao’s feet.
She even held one of the tabby cats in her arms. The cat, with its fur stroked and chin scratched, had already turned into a puddle of liquid cat, lying limply on her knees.
“Jiaojiao is still so popular with the cats and dogs in our village.”
Actually, it’s not entirely true.
The cats genuinely liked her, liking the scent on her body.
As for the dogs, she had forcefully petted them.
She wanted to pet dogs, but since she didn’t have any at home, she could only forcefully pet other people’s dogs.
In the beginning, the dogs ignored her, and some even bared their teeth and growled at her.
But after she swatted them a few times and gave them one or two dried small shrimp, she subdued three dogs with a combination of a stick and a carrot.
Of course, she doesn’t pet just any dog in the village; she’s picky about their looks!
Look at the three dogs she subdued.
A majestic big black dog. Although its ear has a notch, this is its badge of honor from fighting three dogs from another village!
This dog is not only fierce in fights, but it can also hunt and find food in the mountains or by the sea by itself, so it’s more robust than other dogs in the village. Its black coat is also glistening and smooth.
The big yellow dog is the most intelligent dog in the village. It not only understands commands and can shake hands with people, but it can even bow to people to beg for food. However, it only eats what others give it. Even if meat is placed in front of it, it can endure it while drooling.
The last white dog is the most beautiful female dog in the village. It’s a white Chow Chow, with exceptionally fluffy fur, and it’s chubby, feeling great to the touch.
“Big White, when will your puppies be out?”
That’s right, this Chow Chow is pregnant.
And Yun Jiao suspects the puppies are Big Black’s, that social butterfly dog brother with the glistening fur and fierce fighting ability.
She had seen Big Black bring the prey it caught to Big White to eat more than once.
“My puppies aren’t even out yet, and Jiaojiao is already thinking about them?”
Yun Jiao nodded: “Grandma Liu, can I choose one of Big White’s puppies?”
“Sure, I’ll keep one for you then.”
Her husband likes dogs, and her son also likes dogs, so they raise this dog well.
However, no matter how much they like them, they can’t raise too many dogs. What kind of family can raise so many dogs?
It’s not about selling puppies. In this day and age, it’s considered kind to be able to give away puppies to be raised, so they don’t have to be abandoned in the sea or left to fend for themselves in the mountains due to inability to raise them.
Yun Jiao fed Big White a dried mantis shrimp, then went home with Grandma and the others.
“Tomorrow is market day. We can go to the temple to burn incense and donate merit to Mazu, the Dragon King, and all the deities. Do you guys want to go?”
“Yes!”
All the children at home responded.
Being able to go to the market and join the fun was naturally the best.
The market is in town. It only takes about half an hour to walk from their village to town, and Yun Xiaowu and the others can go to town and run back by themselves.
In the evening, Shen Yunlian bathed her. The clean, fragrant, beautiful little dumpling was wrapped in a small blanket and carried to bed.
After putting on clothes, Shen Yunlian dried her hair.
Yun Jiao sat obediently in front of her with her short legs crossed.
“Go play with your brothers. Don’t sleep until your hair is dry.”
Yun Jiao nodded: “Okay.”
She saw Shen Yunlian take out the fabric that Father bought for her.
“Mom, are you making clothes for Jiaojiao?”
“Yes.”
Shen Yunlian nodded affirmatively: “Wait a moment, Mom needs to measure you before you go.”
Yun Jiao stood up. Shen Yunlian told her to raise her hands, and she raised them; told her to turn around, and she turned around.
She was incredibly obedient, and Shen Yunlian couldn’t help but kiss her beautiful little face.
“Alright, go find your brothers to play.”
Yun Jiao trotted away.
“Jiaojiao, save me quickly!”
Yun Xiaowu and the others were having a ‘battle’ in the room, wrapping pillows and blankets around themselves as capes, imagining themselves as great heroes.
However, they lacked the high-level skills of great heroes, only a chaotic melee of weaklings fighting each other.
Even Yun Liuliu, who was usually very lazy, was forced to join in.
The few of them were piled on top of each other like a human pyramid, with Yun Xiaowu being the most unfortunate, pinned at the very bottom.
Yun Jiao ran over and pulled them apart one by one.
“Don’t fight among yourselves, don’t fight!”
“Jiaojiao’s strength has grown again.”
The brothers who were pulled apart didn’t get angry; instead, they praised Yun Jiao profusely.
Yun Jiao sat with her short legs crossed and told her brothers mysteriously.
“Mom is going to make new clothes for me.”
Yun Xiaowu and the others immediately became sour: “We haven’t had new clothes for a long time.”
“Exactly. The family has surplus money now, why can’t Father and the others buy more fabric?”
Yun Jiao: “Father won’t buy it, but you brothers can buy it yourselves.”
Yun Xiaowu and his brothers surrounded her.
“What do you mean?”
“Where would we get the money? Are we supposed to catch things during tide pooling, sell them, and keep some private money?”
Yun Jiao shook her head: “We can ask Fourth Brother to make beautiful bracelets and wind chimes, and then sell them.”
“Huh? Can those sell for money?”
“I think it can work,” Yun Xiaoqi’s eyes lit up.
“Many people in our village like the things Fourth Brother makes for Jiaojiao, so it will definitely work.”
He even said: “We’re going to town tomorrow. I wonder if Fourth Brother has any finished items. We can quietly try them out tomorrow.”
Yun Jiao raised her small hand: “I have some here.”
She pouted her little butt and laboriously dragged out a small box from under the bed.
It was filled with toys that Fourth Brother had given her.
There were colorful stone bracelets, handmade items made from various seashell or shell fragments, and small zodiac animals carved from wood. Yun Jiao was found in the Year of the Monkey. At that time, she was an infant who drank milk, and she looked only a few months old, so everyone assumed her zodiac sign was the Monkey.
Therefore, the little monkeys carved from wood in the small box were the most numerous.
They were also chubby, fluffy, with big, watery, adorable eyes.
There were four in total, each little monkey with a different posture and expression.
They were all good-looking!
But she was reluctant to sell them; she liked every little monkey.
She also really liked the wooden carvings of other zodiac animals.
It’s just that Fourth Brother’s handicrafts were too good!
