Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

“Ten cents?” Qiqi stared at her with wide eyes. “My brother can sell a stick of cream ice cream for 10 cents!”

“It can be sold for 10 cents, but your brother paid for the ice cream. He needs to sell 10 sticks of cream ice cream to make 10 cents. Do you think making money is that easy?” Su Danhong said.

“He said yesterday that he made 18 yuan!” Qiqi said.

“How long did it take him to earn that money?” Su Danhong questioned. “Let me do the math for you. If you collect eggs every day, I will give you 10 cents. There are thirty days in a month, and you will get 10 cents every day. In a month, you will have 3 yuan, and in just 6 months, you will have 18 yuan saved up!”

Qiqi didn't know how to do math yet, so he just looked up at her. “Mom, you’re not lying to me?”

“When have I ever lied to you?” Su Danhong said.

“Mom, did you forget? You lied to me last time and said dad would take me to play in the reservoir, but he didn’t!” Qiqi huffed.

This happened three days ago. She didn't expect this kid to still remember it.

“I talked to your dad privately, but your dad didn't agree. What can I do? Look at your brother, he hasn’t gone either,” Su Danhong said.

“Will you collect eggs or not?” Su Danhong asked again.

“But 10 cents is too little!” Qiqi frowned.

“How is it too little? Look at Da Hou and his friends, have you ever seen them have pocket money? They only get a little pocket money from picking strawberries. Atother times, they don't have a penny, let alone 10 cents,” Su Danhong said.

It's true. His little friends’ pockets were empty. They occasionally bought a popsicle during the holidays, but Qiqi didn’t like popsicles that much. He liked ice cream, which was the best!

“Okay, give me the 10 cents first,” Qiqi said.

“No one gives the money first before doing the work. Just go collect the eggs and come back to get the money after you are done. I need to go see your grandma. If you are lazy and don’t keep your wort, then don't expect me to believe you in the future,” Su Danhong said.

“Got it!” Qiqi pouted and ran up the mountain.

“I’ve finally sent this kid away.” Su Danhong breathed a sigh of relief. Ji Jianyun was smiling and never said a word throughout the whole thing.

“You should leave quickly. My head is hurting like crazy when I see you and your son,” Su Danhong said with annoyance.

Last night, this man tormented her twice. He has been doing it more frequently recently, and her waist couldn't handle it and was still sore.

Ji Jianyun smiled. He still had stuff to do, so he left first.

Su Danhong closed the door. She hugged her well-fed little son and then went to catch up on her sleep.

It was almost nine o'clock when she woke up. Su Danhong took Xiangxiang out for a walk and went to visit Aunt Yang's house.

Aunt Yang asked, “It's been too hot recently. Has Xiangxiang gotten any heat rash?”

“No,” Su Danhong replied.

Xiangxiang, Renren, and Qiqi never had heat rash. Their skin was fine.

Aunt Yang nodded when she heard this. She looked at Xiangxiang in the stroller with a smile, and said, “If you eat well while the baby is still in the belly, then the baby will be different when he is born. Look at that girl, Su Juan, she had to go to the clinic this morning.”

“What happened?” Su Danhong asked.

“Heat rash. The whole head was covered with it, Aunt Yang said.

“I think she ate quite well when she was pregnant,” Su Danhong said, “And she didn't have to work.”

“Yes, she ate well, but you don't know this. I heard that when she was pregnant, she bought a lot of dried squid from the south. It wasn't very fresh, and some of it had gone bad, but it was cheap. I heard that she still ate it all, Aunt Yang said.

“How can you still eat it after it has gone bad?” Su Danhong asked after hearing this.

“It wasn’t not completely bad, but she was pregnant. It wouldn’t have been a problem, but now her daughter gets heat rashes often,” Aunt Yang said.

This was obviously a sign of bad skin.

Su Danhong said, “It's not a big problem. Just pat the baby with some powder and it will be fine. She is not the only child in the village with this problem.”

“I heard it might be contagious. She comes here often, so be careful with Xiangxiang. If she wants you to breastfeed her daughter, you should refuse.” Aunt Yang said. She was clearly favoring Su Danhong.

“How can that be possible? Her daughter is bigger and doesn't need my milk,” Su Danhong said.

It was normal for some women in the village to share their breast milk, but Su Danhong had never nursed a child that was not hers.

“It's not just her, it's the same with everyone else in the village. Don't you know they all say your milk is good?” Aunt Yang said.

“Who is talking about this?” Su Danhong frowned.

“It's just some family.” Of course, Aunt Yang wouldn't hide it and named them. “They are jealous because Renren, Qiqi, and Xiangxiang are all so good-looking.”

Su Danhong said, “Don't worry about them.”

But then it actually happened. Women from the village came to ask her for some milk.

They said they wanted to borrow milk, but it was like the saying: some things that were borrowed would never come back.

Some of the women Su Danhong refused went back. But some pinched their child secretly to make them give heartbreaking cries. However, Su Danhong did not relent, and just made a cup of milk powder for the child.

She was not going to breastfeed a child that was not hers.

Her behavior caused some women in the village to privately say that she was stingy and cruel, and that their child was crying so much but she still refused to breastfeed.

Su Danhong smiled on the surface but took a mental note of these women.

Some village men were starting to transport sweet potatoes to the mountains. After transporting them, they were quoted a selling price that was the same as what outsiders of the village received. Only a few people did not have the price benefit of being a local villager.

These people were not happy and asked the reason. Su Danhong was there with Xiangxiang and said with a smile, “There is no reason. If you are not willing to accept this, then you can take it back.”

In the end, the sweet potatoes were bought at the same price as outsiders.

But they didn’t understand. Why were they suddenly targeted by Jianyun's wife?

Some people knew the truth, so they whispered that they should go back and ask their wife.

Sure enough, this question meant that something had happened. This was the result of loose tongues!

Ji Jianyun only found out about it two days later. After knowing this, he looked upset. He found an excuse to beat up these men.

Ji Jianyun didn’t have to worry much about who he beat in the village. He couldn’t directly hit women, but he had no mercy with the men.

Ji Jianyun's punches were really painful. When he punched someone, the nose would be bruised and the face would be swollen.

Those who were beaten went home to deal with their gossipy wives. After that, these women did not dare to look at Su Danhong in the eye anymore.

Su Danhong was satisfied with how things turned out and rewarded Ji Jianyun with a feast.

As for these young wives, their standing in the village was really embarrassing. The other women in the village ostracized them, and they couldn't borrow anything.
