Chapter 198: Just a Habit

"Alright, stop dripping cat tears. Look at your lack of ambition; aren't you ashamed?" Wang An said helplessly as he watched Wang Li cry.

"I'm not crying; I just got something in my eye just now." Wang Li grabbed the money with his left hand, wiped his eyes with the sleeve of his cotton-padded jacket on the right, and said stubbornly.

"Hahaha, look at your bear-like appearance. Hurry home, okay, and let my second uncle and second aunt be happy too." Wang An looked at the stubborn Wang Li and said with a laugh.

"Yes, Fourth Brother, then I'll go back first." Wang Li said, holding the money and turning to leave.

It was just that Wang Li was holding the money in his hand like that, not knowing to put it in his pocket. Wang An hurriedly shouted again, "Don't you know how to put the money in your pocket? Holding it like that, are you afraid no one will covet your family?"

Wang An's shout made Wang Li stunned. He hurriedly stuffed the money into his pocket, then smiled embarrassedly at Wang An and said, "I was so happy, I didn't think of it."

"Alright, go back." Wang An said again with a laugh.

He saw Wang Li covering the pocket with the money with his hand, striding away, seemingly very worried that the money would dart out of his pocket, or that the pocket would suddenly leak and he would lose the money.

Wang An understood Wang Li's state and actions at this moment very well, because when Wang An was flipping goods in his past life and earned his first huge sum of money, his performance at that time was not as good as Wang Li's.

He remembered that at that time, he always felt that no matter where he put the money, his heart would feel unsafe. He was afraid the money would run away or be stolen if he put it in his pocket, and he would subconsciously keep looking at his backpack if he put it in his backpack. Anyway, he was always in a state of worry and anxiety, and he couldn't eat well or sleep well.

It wasn't until a few days later that he completely returned to normal, and as he earned more and more money, the money was directly put into the cabinet, and he didn't worry about the money being lost or anything. In fact, to put it bluntly, it was just a habit.

After Wang Li left, Wang An turned to look at his brother-in-law. He saw Mu Xueli fiddling with the three stacks of "Big Unities" with single-minded devotion, his smile stretching to the roots of his ears, and his two originally large eyes had now become a slit.

Wang An didn't disturb Mu Xueli but let out a big yawn, then leaned back and lay on the kang again.

When Wang An woke up again, the sky was completely dark, and the whole family had already returned. As for Mu Xueli, Wang An vaguely heard him say he was going home in his sleep, and he seemed to have subconsciously said: "Yes, be careful."

Wang An scanned the family members and found that at this moment, the faces of Wang Dazhu and his wife and Mu Xueqing were all filled with a sense of satisfied happiness!

It seemed that from today on, they were truly living for themselves, rather than living their lives in a daze like before.

It could be seen that the land distribution in the whole village today must have been very successful.

When Wang An returned from peeing in the latrine, Mu Xueqing and his mother were setting the table and picking up bowls; this meant they were about to eat.

As for the lynx and the two silly roe deer, they had disappeared. Wang An was still very concerned about the "two stacks of 'Big Unities'" that had fallen from the sky, so Wang An subconsciously asked, "Where did that lynx cub and the two silly roe deer go?"

Hearing Wang An's question, Wang Dazhu replied, "When we came back, the lynx skin and the roe deer fur were on the ground, so your father stretched them all on frames. Don't worry about it."

Wang An replied casually, "Oh, that's fine."

However, his father's words made Wang An feel something was wrong, because he clearly hadn't skinned the fur yet!

It was just that Wang An suddenly thought of Mu Xueli and Wang Li, because they had come over. Could it be that they had helped with the fur?

Hmm, not bad, these two younger brothers are truly quite good and have a good eye for things!

During the meal, the whole family's topic returned to the land. Which piece of land was good land, flat with plenty of water, suitable for planting rice; which piece of land was dry land, only suitable for planting soybeans or black beans...

Wang An listened to this without saying a word, eating with his head down. Mainly, Wang An didn't even know where the land was. Besides, even if he knew where the land was, Wang An didn't understand what was suitable for planting on which piece of land.

Although farming is simple, there is quite a lot of knowledge involved. If you don't understand the soil quality or don't know what was planted on this piece of land last year, and just plant blindly, then under normal circumstances, you will harvest much less grain!

This is a very important issue! For example, watermelon land. If watermelons were planted on this piece of land last year, then any farmer with a little experience would know that this piece of land cannot be used to plant watermelons for the next two years, this year and next year.

If someone who doesn't understand or know this piece of land really plants watermelons, then the person who plants this piece of land this year will definitely have zero harvest. Not only will the melon vines in the watermelon field be yellow and sparse, but the few watermelons that do grow will also grow into strange shapes, not only not sweet but also very small.

Of course, this is just one type of farming knowledge. Although the vast number of farmers cannot explain the reason for this, their methods are absolutely not wrong at all!

Seeing Wang An not speaking and just eating, Liu Guilan said with dissatisfaction, "Xiao An, why aren't you speaking? You were babbling quite a bit yesterday; what's wrong today? Are you not going to eat if this land produces grain?"

After Liu Guilan finished speaking, the whole family's eyes looked at Wang An, as if they were all expecting Wang An to say something better.

Wang An, who was shoveling rice into his mouth, was stunned for a moment, slowly put down his bowl and chopsticks, thought about it, and then said, "I feel that what you all said is right!" After saying this, he continued to shovel rice.

It was just that after Wang An ate a mouthful of vegetables, he found that the whole family's eyes looking at him seemed to be on fire. Wang An was a bit confused, but he put down his bowl and chopsticks again. After scanning the circle, he finally discovered that he seemed to have become the person in charge of the family; if he didn't say something, this meal definitely couldn't continue.

So Wang An thought about it and said again, "Well, I have one requirement: our family won't plant a single grain of corn or sorghum. All the land that can plant rice and wheat will be planted with rice and wheat, and the rest will all be planted with soybeans. By the way, plant half a mu of broomcorn millet; I'm craving sticky bean buns."

"Sticky bean buns, sticky bean buns, I think you look like a sticky bean bun." Liu Guilan glared at Wang An and said with dissatisfaction.

However, before Wang An could put the mouthful of vegetables he picked up into his mouth, he heard Liu Guilan say to Wang Dazhu, "Master of the house, look at which piece of land to plant broomcorn millet to produce grain..."

Wang Dazhu said without hesitation, "The piece of land in the southwest depression will do. Planting four ridges will be more than enough to eat..."

"Yes, I also think that piece of land is quite good." Liu Guilan echoed.

After the meal, Wang An took out 3,500 yuan and placed it on the kang, and said to Liu Guilan and Mu Xueqing, "This is the money for the green sheep skins; you guys put it away."

Then Wang An turned and said to Wang Dazhu with a smile, "Dad, are those cigarettes enough for you to smoke for a while?"

"Then why did you buy so many? Why didn't you move all the cigarettes from the supply and marketing cooperative back for your dad?" Liu Guilan was clearly a bit dissatisfied that Wang An had bought 20 cartons of cigarettes for Wang Dazhu at once, glared at Wang An, and then said.

However, Wang Dazhu didn't shrink back this time. Perhaps it was because he drank ginseng and deer antler wine every day, which gave him the confidence to stand up to Liu Guilan. Although his tone was soft, he finally spoke up for Wang An: "Look at you, it's all the child's filial piety; why are you scolding him?"

Liu Guilan rolled her eyes at Wang Dazhu and whispered, "Look at your appearance."

While speaking, Liu Guilan put away half a stack of "Big Unities," which was 500 yuan, and then pushed the three stacks of "Big Unities" toward Mu Xueqing, saying, "I'll just keep 500; you guys put these away yourselves."

Mu Xueqing immediately looked at Wang An. Seeing Wang An nod gently, she then said softly to Liu Guilan, "Then I'll put it away, Mom. Tell me if you need money." After Mu Xueqing finished speaking, she put the money away.

Now, although the whole family was very happy that Wang An was bringing money home, they already felt it was normal.

It can be seen that as long as one is used to anything, one will not take anything seriously.

And Wang Dazhu, not being scolded, immediately became arrogant, looking at Wang An with his eyes, as if saying: Look, your dad has stood up!
