Chapter 53 - 52: The Useless Space
"It’s so hot." As Gong Ruini entered the newly built house, she felt the eastern room, originally planned as a dining area, was extremely warm, almost like it could be summer inside.
Gong Tao also came out from the house, sweating profusely, "Ni Zi, what brings you here?"
"You shouldn’t come here. You’re not in good health." Gong Tao motioned for Gong Ruini to quickly head back inside, as she had been drinking medicine due to her health these past few days.
Oh, please, it was just a sore throat. Honestly, if it weren’t for Zhao Guangran insisting on three days of medicine, she would have been fine by now.
"Dad, wow, the greens have sprouted!" After striking it rich, Gong Ruini assumed Zhao Gang and the others wouldn’t bother planting greens.
Previously, Zhao Gang suggested it so each family could be a bit more well-off. But now, with the stuff they dug up from the cavern, they’re doing quite well.
Gong Ruini originally wanted to know what treasures Zhao Gang and the others unearthed, and she was more concerned about what portion their family received. But after arguing with Zhao Guangran, she missed out on the plunder conference.
However, seeing her old man showing off and planning to spend all the cloth tickets in town over the past few days, it was clear that the income must have been substantial.
"Yes, they’ve sprouted. In a few days, we can harvest them, and then we’ll take them out to sell." That’s money, after all, and Gong Tao was taking great care of them.
If this house were habitable, he’d want to stay here at night just to take good care of these greens.
Wait, they’re selling them? Not eating them at home? Gong Ruini was dumbfounded. Even though her family wasn’t short on money, her old man was still so money-hungry.
