Their fish really sold well. Ling Jingpeng already came back before noon. Ling Chenglong didn't come. He should have gone home to help with the farm work, after all, now was the busy farming season. It was already not easy for him to come to say hi every day. By the way, about Dawa's thing, because Ling Jingxuan threatened to sue them, as expected, they no longer came to seek trouble. So this was over, and as for whether the village head or Dawa's family would hate him or not, Ling Jingxuan did not give it a shit at all.

"What? Twenty copper coins for one? How could it so expensive?"

When big bun heard Ling Jingpeng say that those jars with long and big body and thin bottleneck cost 20 copper coins each, his small face turned all red, eyes staring at those jars. One could imagine his expression. It was twenty of them! Four hundred copper coins! Plus other things, today's fish were sold in vain.

Ling Jingxuan twitched his mouth, secretly giving Ling Jingpeng a signal with his eyes. They hurriedly moved all the jars into the basement. Under the instructions of Ling Jingxuan, the two of them stuffed the wild grapes they had washed clean yesterday into those jars, triturated them, and sealed with cloth coated with mud, letting the wild grapes ferment in the jars.

"Well, we can drink it in a month. Jingpeng, is the fair in the town open every day?"

Looking at the neatly stacked jars in the cellar, Ling Jingxuan smiled with relief. If it hadn't been that he was too short of money, he really wanted to pick more wild grapes to make wine, perhaps this would be the first bucket of gold he dug up in this world, although he did not know whether there was wine in here at all.

"No. It opens every three days. Tomorrow happens to be the fair day. Big brother, are you going to the fair?"

"Mm, I want to make the rest of the wild grapes into jam and sell it at the fair."

Did not explain too much, Ling Jingxuan nodded and picked up the remaining wild grapes, estimated that he could boil two or three jars of jam.

"Can these wild fruit really exchange for money?"

On hearing that, Ling Jingpeng curiously asked. He always thought that his big brother was only fooling Xiaowen.

"I suppose so. Tomorrow we will know. Oh right, don't dig the pool in the backyard. We can save more money and directly dig a bigger pond. Dad said right, the fish in Yuehua Ditch can not sustain us for long, so we should grow fish on our own."

As they talked, both already came into the kitchen. Ling Jingxuan put the dustpan down and made fire, preparing to make jam and rock sugar. Ling Jinghan's illness cannot be delayed any longer. He planned to start the treatment tomorrow, which was also one of the reasons why he would go to the fair tomorrow. There were not too many medicinal herbs home, some of which he still need to fill the prescription in the drugstore.

"Jingxuan, you teach me to make jam? I want to make money too."

No doubt about what he said, Ling Jingpeng said eagerly. Through Dawa's thing he already changed his attitude toward his big brother completely. Since he turned normal, he seemed to be omnipotent. He was convinced from the bottom of the heart, and, though many years had passed, he always remembered his big brother was very gentle and loved them very much.

"Hehe...OK. Today you watch how I do it. We don't have many wild grapes, and I'm not sure if we can get a good price for the jam. When I go to town tomorrow, I'll try it. If it sells well, we'll do it together."

Having already planned to let him learn to do business, of course Ling Jingxuan did not refuse him. Isn't it a good thing that his younger brother is so enterprising?

"Well, when I get rich, I will buy a few more mu of land to build a house, then our whole family can live together."

Ling Jingpeng's face spread a bright smile, but he still did not forget to help Ling Jingxuan to scoop water into the pot. But after hearing what he said, Ling Jingxuan stopped what he was doing, looking at him for a moment, and then said, "Our parents are living a bad life there, right? Do they still leave everything to our parents as before?"

"Huh?"

The movement of scooping water paused there, and the smile on Ling Jingpeng's face frozen, he lowered his head and said sullenly, "well, not so bad, because of my second brother, grandpa is not so harsh to us. But never expect he would take our side. And you know about grandma. She always disfavors our parents, let alone our uncles. The farm work of dozens of mu land is all left to daddy, and those housework to mom, while they themselves wear clean clothes and bum around..."

Here, Ling Jingpeng can not help but start to choke, after quite a while, he raised his head, fists clenched, firmly looking at Ling Jingxuan, "Ge, I will try to make money, and let our parents and you live a good life."

The sufferings of his parents, the grievances of his big brother, the pains of his second brother, and the hardship of his two young nephews, at the age of fourteen, he knew everything, but he was too young to take care of all of them.

"Hmm, I know, I will work hard with you, but before that, you must find a way to let them divide up the family. I suppose they are already angry about you coming help me these days."

Said Ling Jingxuan, patting him on the shoulder.
