Chapter 646: Searching for the tools

Yu Dong did not know that she has been targeted again, she went to the small shed that was at the foot of the hill with the strong women who were selected by the village head Gu and started her search to look for the tools to extract oil from the shed that seemed to have collapsed under the storm. It was a good thing that the stone mill and everything else that Second Aunt Yu purchased was really heavy and thus could not be blown away by the storm and they were able to scavenge everything that was buried under the remnants of the shed.          

    

When Yu Dong pulled out the stone grinder she was helped by Xiao Shi and Xiao Ri, the two women were the daughters of Village head Gu and though they were called Gu Rou and Gu Chenxi, the villagers often called them Xiao Shi and Xiao Ri.      

While Xiao Shi was more outgoing and outspoken because she was the daughter of the legitimate husband, Xiao Ri who was the daughter of the second husband was more shy and reserved even though she was honest and a hard worker, she hardly said a word to Yu Dong, while Xiao Shi continued to chatter as she said,  " Dong Dong, are you sure that you will be able to extract oil from the rice bran? I am not doubting you but I am thinking of handing my rice bran to you as well, I and Ri Ri are going to look for husbands too if we can give their families two silver taels as groom price then I am sure that we will be able to get good husbands."      

" I am not worried about myself but Ri Ri is too shy, I am afraid that instead of bullying her husband, she might end up getting bullied by him." Xiao Shi and Xiao Ri were the same age thus despite having been born from different wombs they were really close. Something that annoyed Village head Gu's official husband a lot, he wanted his daughter to slack off and bully Xiao Ri who was going to get a share of her mother's property but Xiao Shi who was not as greedy as her father did not hate her half-sister and treated her quite well.

In fact, many villagers have heard Old Cheng scold Xiao Shi and called her stupid for not being to turn into steel from iron.      

But Xiao Shi'a thinking process was simple, their mother had so much property and land even if she was to share some with Xiao Ri it wasn't going to make her suffer. As long as she got three meals a day, it was fine.      

If Old Cheng was here then he would have rolled his eyes at his daughter and smacked her on the back of her head calling her useless until he ran out of breath.      

Xiao Ri blushed as she lowered her head but with the big stone tool in her hands that she was carrying with ease, the effect of her blush was diminished.      

" You can hand me the rice bran, your mother has already done so which means that she trusts me, if you want to look for good husbands by paying a handsome groom price then I think that you should definitely become a shareholder in the mill." Yu Dong told them since she was not taking any money from them to start a company and was just using the rice bran that they threw in waste, she was not going by the rules of the modern world.      

" As long as you supply me the same amount of raw material as you promised you will get the same amount of money each month from the income."      

Xiao Shi thought that since her mother has already handed her own rice bran she will not be able to hand the rice bran that was sitting in her room, thus when she heard Yu Dong say that she could join in the scheme as well, she was thoroughly delighted as she praised Yu Dong, " Thank you, Dong Dong, you are the best!"      

She even tugged at her sister who nodded and then shyly whispered, " You are the best."      

While they all were chattering they arrived at the old Mu house that has been abandoned for a very long time, as soon as they arrived Grandma Yu who was inside the house walked out with a slight hunch on her back and smiled when she saw that Yu Dong was able to scavenge most of the tools. " Looks like they were all there, I was worried that they might have been washed away by the flood."      

Then she turned over her shoulder and called out to Aunt Wang and Yu Tong, " Tong Tong, little Wang come here and help them carry these tools inside."

Yu Tong was tidying up the house that has collected a lot of dust since it has been left behind by its owners with Aunt Wang and her brothers-in-law, only Fang Chi who was pregnant and could not withstand the dust and dirt was asked to leave behind. When she heard her grandmother shout, she immediately threw the rag that she was holding in her hands and then walked out with Aunt Wang.      

" You are here sister Dong," Yu Tong looked at her sister who was carrying the big stone grinder with Xiao Shi and then helped the two of them to bring the huge stone grinder inside the house.      

Once they brought the tools that were rotting in the shed for a long time, everyone took a good look at the dirty and mud-covered tools before they turned to look at Yu Dong.      

" Can we really extract oil from this?" Aunt Wang couldn't help but feel nervous when she saw just how dirty the tools were.      

Yu Dong nodded and replied, " You don't have to worry no matter how dirty they are in the end they are all in great condition and they can be used to extract oil after they are cleaned up."      

Her words caused everyone's eyes to light up as they turned to look at the tools with renewed energy. At least their hard work did not go in vain!
