Space Farming: Pampered

Chapter 5 Land Swap
Hearing this, Shen Song turned pale with fright and howled again: "Father, mother, give them a change. Don't we have twenty acres of land? Give them ten acres, and my son has to be filial to you, and we can't let them beat him to death." what!"

Shen Yunxuan and Shen Yunxuan didn't expect their sister to make such a request, and their complexions improved a lot, and they gave Shen Jintang admiring glances.

Shen Mu and Wu Qiuniang were also a little surprised, but neither spoke, apparently acquiescing to Shen Jintang's statement.

Shen Yukang and Mrs. Shen didn't expect to take out ten acres of land in exchange, and felt pain in the apex of their hearts for a while.

The old couple stared at Shen Jintang as if they wanted to eat her.

Those tall men with Shen Song tied up had already run out of patience, so they took out a stick as thick as an arm from nowhere.He gestured twice to Shen Song's leg: "If you don't give us 20 taels of silver, don't take his leg!"

Shen Yukang and his wife were taken aback immediately, and quickly said, "Exchange, let's exchange ten acres of land, and give them the money quickly."

Shen Jintang took the money from Wu Qiuniang, and said to them, "Give me the title deed first, and then I will give you the money."

After finishing the words, he looked at the men again and asked, "Should you be willing to wait for a while?"

Those men impatiently waved at Shen Yukang and his wife: "Why don't you hurry up and give her the land deed?"

Mrs. Shen had no choice but to go home quickly to get the title deed.

The surrounding villagers looked at Shen Jintang and couldn't help but said: "I really can't see it, this sister Tang has fallen into the water, not only is she no longer stupid, she has become more powerful."

"Who says no? If you ask me, the two of the Shen family are too partial."

Mrs. Shen was afraid that those people would break her son's legs if they couldn't wait, so she came back very quickly.

Shen Jintang looked at the title deed that Mrs. Shen had brought over, handed it to Wu Qiuniang, and then gave her ten taels of silver.

Mrs. Shen took the silver and said to Shen Yukang: "What about our twelve taels? Hurry up and give it to them."

Several people got 20 taels of silver, weighed them up and down in satisfaction, and kicked Shen Song's buttocks: "Boy, you will grow up with eyes in the future, and you will not be able to pay for your life if you seduce a married woman again!"

Seeing these people let Shen Song go, Shen Mu felt physically and mentally exhausted, and turned back to the yard.

Shen Jintang and the others followed Shen Mu back home and closed the courtyard door.

Shen Jintang looked at his depressed parents, and comforted him: "Don't be sad, parents, at least we don't have to buy and eat these ten acres of land."

Moreover, since Dad wants to take the provincial examination, she will also find ways to make money.

Listening to their daughter's soft-spoken comfort, Shen Mu and Wu Qiuniang felt better.

Wu Qiuniang looked at the baskets placed by Shen Yunxuan and Shen Jintang's feet, smiled and said, "Xuan'er hunted a lot of prey today. Why is Tang'er picking so many poisonous fungi?"

Shen Jintang laughed when he heard the words, and asked, "Mother, don't people here eat wild mushrooms from the mountains?"

Wu Qiuniang shook her head and said: "A few years ago, it was said that some people ate it. If it was mild, it would cause diarrhea and fever, and if it was serious, it would eat dead people. No one dared to eat it."

Shen Jintang smiled and said: "These I picked today are edible, and the stewed chicken is delicious. My brother also killed a pheasant today. Let me cook today's dinner, and let my parents and brothers eat it." Try my craft."

This time, Shen Mu and others looked at her in astonishment: "Tang'er, do you know how to cook?"

Shen Jintang cleared his throat, and said, "Look, mother has cooked so many meals, so I'll give it a try."

It's not easy to hurt her confidence, so the others had no choice but to volunteer to help her.

Shen Yun was relegated to chop firewood, Shen Mu went to the kitchen to boil water to scald the pheasant, and Shen Yunxuan killed the pheasant first and bled it.

As for Wu Qiuniang, she went to gather the onions and garlic in the vegetable field ahead.

Shen Jintang put the fungus in a large wooden basin, added water and washed it repeatedly, and when all the ingredients were ready, Shen Yunxuan also processed the pheasant and cut it into pieces, and waited for Shen Jintang to fry it.

When the tangy fragrance permeated, Shen Jintang lifted the lid of the pot and took a piece of fungus to taste the saltiness.

Before Shen Mu and the others could stop them, they saw that she had already chewed and swallowed, and immediately looked at her nervously: "Tang'er, does your stomach hurt?"

"Tang'er, what if this fungus is poisonous? You should let your mother taste it first!"

Shen Jintang recalled the taste, and smiled with satisfaction: "Don't worry, this is really non-toxic and edible."

After finishing speaking, she took another piece and fed it to Wu Qiuniang: "Mom, try it if it tastes good."

Wu Qiuniang ate it without hesitation, nodded after chewing a few times: "It's delicious, it's delicious."

"Okay, it's time to cook."

The whole family is used to eating boiled vegetables made by Wu Qiuniang. They didn't notice anything before, but now when they eat the pheasant stewed mushrooms made by Shen Jintang, their tongues want to swallow the delicious food.I don't want to eat Wu Qiuniang's cooking anymore.

Shen Yunxuan swallowed a mouthful of white porridge, put another piece of fungus into his mouth, and said while chewing: "Sister, from now on, can you cook for our family? I will definitely hunt more."

Shen Yunxuan sat on the other side of Shen Jintang, and nodded in agreement.

Shen Jintang smiled and narrowed her eyes, seeing that everyone likes to eat her cooking is a sense of accomplishment.

Wu Qiuniang pretended to be angry and said, "Okay, you all think my cooking is unpalatable, don't you? I just don't want to do it yet. From now on, Tang'er will be happy to cook."

Shen Mu turned his head and looked at her tenderly, and said, "They don't want to eat, but it's okay if my husband is willing to eat what you cook?"

Shen Yunxuan and the others immediately booed.

Wu Qiuniang blushed when her son and daughter looked at her like this.

The family eating a meal is happy and happy, laughing and talking.

After eating, watching the two elder brothers scrambling to wash the pots and dishes, and her father Shen Mu's mood was obviously a little depressed, so Shen Jintang walked up to him and sat down.

"Father, are you worrying about money?"

Shen Mu raised his head, looked at her lovingly, and smiled gently: "Father is fine."

Wu Qiuniang sighed while wiping the table, straightened up and said, "Your father originally saved the ten taels of silver to use as travel expenses to go to the county to take the provincial examination next year, but now it's all in vain."

Although they now have ten acres of land, so that their family will not starve to death, but the distant water cannot save the nearby fire, so how to save enough ten taels of silver quickly is a problem.

Shen Mu is now in his thirties, and because he has no money, he has missed many exams.If you miss it again this time, you will have to wait a few years for the next township test.

An idea of ​​making money came to Shen Jintang's mind, she said with a smile: "Father and mother, don't worry, I have an idea of ​​making money."
