Before Su Ruanruan had time to answer, Su Cangshan gave Su Laixi the strawberry he had just taken a bite of.
"Laixi, eat what you eat, just don't pick it from the fields. It's better to sell such precious things in the county for money. Don't you want to go to school?"
The four Su Laixi brothers have already finished studying the Thousand-Character Essay with Su Ruanruan, and are just waiting for their families to have enough money to go to school.
With Xiao Chengjin in front of him, Su Cangshan also knew what to prepare for entering the school.
Even if the four people are halfway through the repairs now, they still have to pay the repairs for a year, and they will pay them again at this time next year.
After all, Mr. Liu can't calculate the money for you based on the time you entered school, which would be too troublesome.
One person has two taels, and four people have eight taels.
After finishing the thousand-word literature, the next step is four books.
A set of four books per person, including pen, ink, paper and inkstone, costs almost twenty taels of silver.
In the past, Su Cangshan would never have dared to think about this.
Even if his family still had more than twenty-nine taels of silver, he would not dare to just send his children to school.
This year’s is enough, what about next year’s
Besides, you can’t buy paper once and use it for a year.
If you want to write well, you can't just scratch it on the ground with a branch. You still have to practice on paper.
Previously, Su Cangshan only thought that Su Ruanruan had been deceived.
It wasn't until the strawberries blossomed and turned red day by day that he finally paid attention to it.
He has also been to the county seat, but has never seen such fruit.
Maybe it's not that they don't exist, it's just that wealthy families have them, and they can't see them at all.
No matter what, this thing doesn't look cheap at first glance, but you can't eat it just because you are greedy. It's all money.
Although Su Laixi didn't eat enough, she saw that the youngest Su Ruanruan only ate one, and still didn't eat the one Su Cangshan handed over, "Dad, you can eat it yourself. I won't eat it. When can we take it to the county seat?" Sell it for money?"
Su Cangshan didn't force it, so he ate the remaining half, looked at the sky, and then said, "It's already late today. I'm afraid it'll be too late to go to the county seat. Let's go early tomorrow morning. If we go early, we can come back early."
When Su Ruanruan heard this, she hurriedly said, "Dad, I want to go together."
Except for buying materials for her to make clothes last time, she has never been to the county town.
Besides, she wants to sell strawberries herself.
It's not that Su Ruanruan can't trust Su Cangshan, she's just afraid that Su Cangshan's price will be too low.
After all, after getting along with each other for several months, Su Ruanruan knew that Su Cangshan was a very simple man.
The asking price is all over the sky, and the lion is opening his mouth. This kind of thing will not happen to Su Cangshan.
Because freshly picked strawberries are the most delicious, everyone in the Su family and the Xiao family got up early the next morning as soon as there was a glimmer of light.
After everyone washed up, they went to pick strawberries in this small basket.
Su Ruanruan specifically told her to pick only the reddest ones and a little bit of white, so that they could grow a little longer.
This is the first batch, so if you pick them all, you only have one basket for each family.
The bamboo baskets are neither big nor small, each one is as big as an adult hugging.
Looking at the basket of strawberries, Su Ruanruan estimated that it weighed about ten kilograms.
Ten pounds is a lot.
As long as you sell it for a good price, it's just a big income.
Besides, strawberries can be picked every day.
This is the beginning. It may take two days to pick once, but from now on, you can pick it every day.
