Chapter 798 Irresistibly Heart-Fluttering
That's why Wu Fang was so shocked when she heard Huang Xian say that the women in Chenjia Village earned just as much as the men!
The fact that the woman could go out to work was already surprising enough, but she never imagined that the woman could earn so much money!
"Yes!"
Huang Shu nodded and said, "In Chenjia Village, regardless of gender, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can earn enough money to support yourself. Father and Mother, you can come with us to Chenjia Village. Father can work as a laborer in the shops, and Mother can do some needlework in the clothing factory in Chenjia Village. Earning one or two taels of silver a month should not be a problem!"
One tael of silver!
Huang Li and Wu Fang both gasped in shock. In their lives, they had seen a full tael of silver only a handful of times. Now, Huang Shu was telling them that if they moved to Chenjia Village, they could earn a tael of silver a month...
This moment made their hearts flutter immensely.
"So, Dad, don't worry about those few acres of land at home. Instead of working so hard to cultivate them, why don't you rent them out and come live with us in Chenjia Village!"
Huang Shu smiled and said that there were actually some things he hadn't told his parents, and that was...
Even in Chenjia Village, not everyone can find a job. Even if his parents went to Chenjia Village with him, they might not be able to find work and earn money immediately.
However, there was no need to mention this, because before leaving Chenjia Village, the three brothers had already discussed it. As long as their parents were willing to move to Chenjia Village, even if their parents had no income, the three brothers were willing to support their parents and younger siblings.
This was not a difficult task for the three brothers, since their combined monthly income was 2.4 taels of silver, which was higher than that of some small landlords. In addition, the cost of living in Chenjia Village was not high, so supporting the family of five was not a problem at all.
"Okay! I'll do whatever you say!"
Huang Li was eventually persuaded by Huang Shu and made up his mind: "In a couple of days, I will rent out the land at home to my family to farm, and our whole family will move to Chenjia Village!"
Seeing that their father had been persuaded, the Huang brothers, Li and Xian, couldn't help but laugh and continued to explain the various details of Chenjia Village to their parents.

As the sun was about to set, Huang Ming and the three little ones had finished preparing dinner.
The family of eight sat around the dining table, enjoying the sweet steamed buns.
"Third Brother, the steamed buns are so delicious!"
Huang Xin wolfed down her steamed bun while mumbling incoherently.
Huang Yu and Huang Yuan, two children in their early teens, were also devouring steamed buns like starving ghosts!
It's no wonder the three little ones ate so poorly; they were just too hungry, or rather... their bodies were severely depleted!
For a whole year, the three little ones ate almost nothing but bran and chaff, and only one meal a day!
Under such circumstances, they naturally found it hard to resist the temptation of delicious steamed buns. It was only because the three of them were relatively young and didn't have big appetites that they were able to swallow a whole steamed bun in one bite.
"Eat more if you like it!"
Huang Ming gently stroked Huang Xin's dry, yellow hair and said, "When we get to Chenjia Village, Third Brother will buy you meat to eat!"
"Eat meat!"
The three little ones' eyes lit up. If steamed buns were a rare treat for them, then meat...
For them, it was food they wouldn't even dare to dream of!
"Third Brother, is there really meat to eat?"
"Third Brother, I want to eat meat!"
"Third brother, I want a chicken leg!"
Seeing the three incredibly excited children, Huang Ming smiled and nodded, saying, "Third brother won't lie to you. When we get to Chenjia Village, I'll buy you meat to eat!"
"Great!"
"Third brother is so good!"
"Third Brother is amazing!"
"..."
The cheers of children echoed from the small house.
Watching the children cheering while still munching on their steamed buns, Huang Li and Wu Fang exchanged a glance, feeling immensely gratified.
With the return of the Huang brothers, the family finally escaped poverty, and the children no longer had to go hungry.

The next day, as the sun rose, the entire Linshan Village came alive with activity.
Villagers with unmarried daughters flocked to Huang Li's home, hoping to find a good marriage for their daughters.
Huang Li and Wu Fang warmly welcomed the villagers who came to propose marriage.
Before the three Huang brothers left home, Huang Li and Wu Fang had been thinking about finding wives for them. However, due to their poor family conditions, no one was willing to marry their daughters to the three Huang brothers, so the eldest, Huang Shunian, was nearly 20 years old and still unable to find a wife.
With so many people coming to their door, willing to marry their daughters to their sons, Huang Li and Wu Fang were naturally very happy.
However, Huang Li and Wu Fang were honest people, so when receiving these villagers, they did not forget to remind them: "After the New Year, our family will be moving to Chenjia Village. Your daughter will be going to Chenjia Village with you when she marries into our family. Can you accept that?"
Huang Li and Wu Fang thought their reminder would dissuade many villagers from proposing marriage, but unexpectedly...
After they reminded them, the villagers became even more enthusiastic!
"Go to Chenjia Village? Going to Chenjia Village is great! Chenjia Village is like a fairyland, my daughter will definitely have a wonderful time there!"
"That's right!"
"Old Huang! Do you remember me? You used to come to my house to propose marriage."
"Old Huang, my daughter is just 16 years old this year. How about she marries your Huang Ming?"
"I've asked my daughter, and she's willing to marry your Huang Shu!"
"..."
Faced with such enthusiastic villagers, Huang Li and Wu Fang were momentarily at a loss.
The family only had three sons, but as many as ten villagers came to propose marriage. This meant they had to deal with these enthusiastic villagers while subtly inquiring about their daughter's situation.
At the same time, Zhang Tianniu, accompanied by a girl, appeared in front of Huang Li's house.
The reason Zhang Tianniu appeared here is quite simple: he also has a daughter of marriageable age named Zhang Qing.
Besides catching up with Huang Li's family, the purpose of this visit was to arrange a marriage for his daughter, Zhang Qing!
Back when the three Huang brothers were still in the village, even though most of the women in the village were unwilling to marry them, Zhang Tianniu had considered betrothing Zhang Qing to Huang Ming because he had a very good relationship with Huang Li and his daughter Zhang Qing had been Huang Ming's childhood sweetheart.
He even mentioned this to Huang Li, who was very happy to agree to the marriage.
