"You don’t have to walk so slowly on purpose," Wang Ziqing looked at the winding path in front of him,"Don’t worry about me, just go ahead."

"Look at you, say something like this."It's the same whether you walk fast or slow. The two of you should go home together, otherwise others will think that they started to have conflicts as soon as they got married.

Seeing that Bai Yulian didn't listen to him, Wang Ziqing didn't say much, so she He hurried to the side of the road and told her not to walk in the middle. The road was already narrow. If someone else, or even a cow or a donkey, came from the opposite direction later, be sure not to hit her. I didn’t know how to walk on this section of the road. After a long time, Wang Ziqing has been working very hard to match Bai Yulian's footsteps. He can't walk fast because his leg is dragging. He seems to be having trouble with himself in his heart, and he is a little unwilling.

Just returned home, Bai Yulian He closed the door and took out a small handkerchief from his arms.

"Do you know what my grandmother gave me when she just left?"

Wang Ziqing was stunned. It turned out that he was giving something. It was just some jewelry at the bottom of the box. After all, when Bai Yulian got married, her dowry was only a tattered quilt. The old lady couldn't bear it after all.

The one in Bai Yulian's hand looked very... The old and wrinkled handkerchief slowly unfolded, and there were some hard things inside. When you touched it in your hand, you knew what it was. When you opened it, it was clear. It was almost as Wang Ziqing guessed, it was indeed some old jewelry. , probably the old lady’s previous dowry, which is considered acceptable in their hometown.

A pair of dark bracelets, a very simple-looking hairpin, and a bunch of money.

Bai Danian is an honest person, She had no ambition at all and couldn't save much money. They were all fooled away by the second roommate. Mrs. Li was also known to be stingy. The whole Bai family had to be taken care of by the old lady, and she didn't have any spare money. , this is what the old lady secretly hid without telling Li.

Most of the old lady’s property was confiscated by her second wife. This is the only thing left now. It’s so helpless.

I think back when Bai Yulian got married, There was nothing at home, only a tattered quilt, which made people feel sad just thinking about it. The old lady also felt sorry for Bai Yulian. Thinking that Wang Ziqing's family was so poor, she had to take out the old things that were kept at the bottom of the box. If something happens, maybe it can help?

Just before Bai Yulian left, the old lady was secretly saying these words. Taking advantage of the fact that Li was not around at that time, she quickly stuffed the contents of this handkerchief into Bai Yulian's arms. Here, you must not let Mrs. Li know about it.

The old lady has good intentions for Bai Yulian, and Bai Yulian remembers it in her heart. Unfortunately, she doesn’t know if she will have the opportunity to honor the old lady in the future. After all, she is already married, and the Bai family It's not Bai Yulian's decision.

Before taking it out, Bai Yulian felt that it was very heavy. There must be a lot of things inside. This was the money the old lady gave Bai Yulian to save her life.

Wang Ziqing couldn't help but look sideways, and said to herself With the family's situation, don't underestimate the money. He really can't get it out.

The old lady really feels sorry for Bai Yulian, her granddaughter. These bracelets and hairpins are definitely the bottom of the box.

"Put it away quickly, hide it, and don't take it out casually."Wang Ziqing specifically told Bai Yulian not to expose her wealth. If she was targeted by some bad guys, the life-saving money would not be saved.

Wang Ziqing just reminded Bai Yulian that he did not want to use the money as a My own thoughts.

This is the life-saving money that the old lady gave to her granddaughter. Wang Ziqing cannot give Bai Yulian a good life, and there is no need to keep an eye on the small amount of money in her hands.

But Bai Yulian has her own She picked up the money and weighed it in her hands. She seemed to have an idea.

"I will keep the money temporarily, but it should not take long before I can take it out."

"what do you mean?"Wang Ziqing didn't think there was any need to use money so urgently,"This is the old lady's intention. You should keep it. Don't use it unless it is absolutely necessary."……"

"Keep the money in your own hands, but you can't make money."Bai Yulian was still obedient, and these things were wrapped again.

"What do you want to do?"Wang Ziqing looked surprised. Although the money is not his own, and he really has no control over it, but according to Bai Yulian's intention, he may want to use the money immediately. I'm afraid this is not good, right?

Wang Ziqing still I think this money should be kept. Bai Yulian will definitely use the money and opportunities in the future. If I use it now, what will I do in the future?

"It's nothing. If you can find a suitable opportunity and use the money to do something useful, that's not bad."

But Bai Yulian didn't think clearly about what to do. There doesn't seem to be any use here. Moreover, this money is very important and cannot be used on useless things. The methods are all thought up by people. , since Bai Yulian had this idea, she couldn't let it go like this.

Wang Ziqing felt that it was inappropriate to ask too many questions, so he just reminded Bai Yulian and said nothing more.

After Bai Yulian hid the money, The man who rummaged through boxes and cabinets took out all the hoes, shovels, etc. at home, and leaned them against the wall one by one. There were quite a few tools, so just pick two that were handy.

Wang Ziqing didn’t understand what Bai Yulian wanted to do, she was Little brain, it seems unreliable? When Wang Ziqing saw Bai Yulian picking up a shovel, he quickly shouted:"Be careful, this one is very heavy."

Bai Yulian managed to stabilize herself and put it back against the wall. It's indeed a bit heavy and not suitable for her, so she might as well get something lighter.

"Can you lift such a heavy shovel? No wonder these are gathering dust at home and are of no use at all."

Bai Yulian said this casually and didn't mean anything.

However, when Wang Ziqing heard this, his eyes dimmed a lot. If his legs were normal, although this shovel was a little heavy, it would be normal. Wang Ziqing's strength can be used freely, but unfortunately for his legs...

This shovel was left by Wang Ziqing's father. He has never used it. The dust on it is enough to prove that it has been accumulated for a long time. It's been piled there, and those shovels, iron bars, etc. are all getting rusty.

"These iron rods are of no use. Sell them to the blacksmith another day and get them back in exchange for a few pennies."Bai Yulian was discussing with Wang Ziqing.

It took a long time for Wang Ziqing to utter two words:"Whatever."

"And this shovel," Bai Yulian was referring to the very bulky thing just now,"This one is too heavy, I don't need it, so sell it to someone else. The remaining items can still be used at home, but they are rusty and need to be taken care of."

"What are you going to do?"Wang Ziqing stared at Bai Yulian, not angry, just curious.

"It's land reclamation," Bai Yulian blinked,"Think about it, we have to eat, and we have to have food to eat, right? You can't expect others to send it to our homes. If we open up wasteland and farm our own fields, won't we have something to eat by then? Look at which household in the village does not have land? It's a pity that all the good fields have been occupied by them, so we have no choice but to open up wasteland."

So that's it. Opening up wasteland is a good idea, but Bai Yulian is sure she wants to farm the land herself?

It's not that Wang Ziqing underestimates Bai Yulian. She is a weak woman. It would be very difficult for her to open up wasteland and farm the land by herself. Yes. It's a pity that Wang Ziqing's legs are not good, so she can't help much.

Bai Yulian has made up her mind. The problem of food must be solved. If she doesn't farm the land, can she still expect others to support her? Bai Yulian and Wang Ziqing The two of you, Qing, can't eat that much food. They don't need a big place for the time being. It's enough for the two of them to eat and drink daily. If they can get more to sell at the market in the town, that would be a good choice. Bai Yulian is a little bit They calculated how much land they could buy with the money and how much land they needed to open up wasteland, and then they had to choose a place. But if they wanted to open up wasteland, they would have to start from scratch. It was impossible to count on it for a while. Will it be possible this time next year? Even if there is any gain, it is still a very big problem.

Wang Ziqing is really worried that Bai Yulian will not be able to endure these hardships, and is it really possible to open up wasteland?

"Don't worry," Bai Yulian seemed to be full of confidence,"Although my strength is small, I will open up wasteland every day. It won't be long before this land will be ours, and then we will plant some food and vegetables on it.."

Since this is the case, Wang Ziqing has nothing to say.

This is not over yet. Bai Yulian will not let Wang Ziqing do nothing. He must also participate.

Bai Yulian handed Wang Ziqing a small shovel and said:"I I know your legs and feet are not good, but if you just take a small shovel and dig around, there shouldn't be any big problem, right? If you are tired of digging, go to the side and rest for a while. Having bad legs and feet is not a fatal problem. If you work hard and do what you can do, what is the difference between you and a normal person?"

Hearing this, Wang Ziqing was startled, and his eyes instantly softened. Because of his lame leg, Wang Ziqing was used to being looked down upon by the village. No one thought highly of him, let alone thought of him. He is a useful person. Bai Yulian is the first person to say such things to Wang Ziqing. She does not think that he is a useless guy. It turns out that he can still do what he can do.

There is no relationship with the people in the village. Others also ridiculed and looked down upon Wang Ziqing, but also encouraged him to do what he could, encourage him to open up wasteland and farm to support himself. The image of Bai Yulian instantly grew taller in Wang Ziqing's tears. Wang Ziqing felt at this moment My heart is very warm, my whole body is full of warmth, and I have a lot of confidence.

Why should I feel sorry for myself all day long? There are many things that I can do. As long as I try to do it, maybe I can succeed over time.

Bai Yulian's words It gave Wang Ziqing great encouragement, and he even immediately made up his mind to open up wasteland with Bai Yulian.

Bai Yulian was right, he should do what he can do, and the two of them didn't need a big deal at all. If they persist for a period of time, even if the land reclamation is successful, they will be able to eat the food and vegetables grown by themselves and realize the freedom of eating.

What a beautiful thing this is, just thinking about it will make people I feel endless admiration.
