If you don't work hard to farm the fields, you will inherit the throne with the prince.

Chapter 9 Buying and Buying a Home
Taohua refused: "I won't go!"

She was fed up with the days of fear and beating every day.

Tao Hua Niang showed her motherly heart in a rare way, and said: "Tao Hua, your brother can't live without others, I will come back to see you in the future."

Taohuaniang hurriedly left with her bundle.

Taohua looked at the back of Taohuaniang leaving, with despair in her eyes.

She thought this might be the last time the mother and daughter saw each other.

As for Xie Mingzhu, she didn't stop Taohuaniang, she is a good person, but she doesn't abuse good people.

She gave Peach Blossom a chance.

Peach Blossom herself did not appreciate it.

What kind of life situation she will have in the future is her destiny.

After buying the house, Xie Yunli took Qin Che to borrow the ox cart from the patriarch's house to go to the yamen to file for the record.

Mrs. Zhao went home and summoned her two daughters-in-law, and together they tidied up the house swiftly.

No one tells Taohua what to do, but Taohua is always busy.

After all the dust settled, Xie Mingzhu had the opportunity to appreciate the house.

This three-entry house was just completed that year, and it is still very grand, and the bamboo forest behind the house makes the courtyard a little more elegant.

She thought, when she earns some more money, she can properly renovate the house.

As the commander-in-chief, Mrs. Zhao directed Xia Manxing, Zhu Yeqing and Da Ya Er Ya to work.

Taohua was not idle either, Xie Mingzhu rolled up her sleeves and wanted to help, but was stopped by Mrs. Zhao.

"Mingzhu, sit down and rest obediently."

Xie Mingzhu thought of the bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, and said, "Then shall I go out for a walk?"

"Don't go to the stream, be careful of falling into the water." Mrs. Zhao urged.

"Know it."

Xie Mingzhu picked up a bamboo back pocket and went to the bamboo forest by the stream.

There are many bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest.

Xie Mingzhu was worried about the bamboo shoots, so instead of breaking them with her hands, she kicked them with her feet.

After kicking down the bamboo shoots, they peeled off the shells with a small stick.

Fresh bamboo shoots are tender and very beautiful.

She came back to the house with a bag of bamboo shoots on her back. Mrs. Zhao looked at it and asked in surprise, "Mingzhu, what are you doing with these bamboos?"

"Eat!"

Mrs. Zhao couldn't help teaching Xie Mingzhu, saying: "Mingzhu, these bamboo shoots are not tasty, they are bitter and astringent!"

"Then I'll try!"

Zhao said with a helpless smile, "Okay, try it."

"Mom, is the stove here working?"

Mrs. Zhao hasn't entered the kitchen yet, so she doesn't know how Xia Manxing is doing.

"Your second sister-in-law is doing it, I'll ask your second sister-in-law later."

Xie Mingzhu smiled and said, "Then I'll go and have a look."

In the kitchen, Xia Manxing complained while tidying up: "My parents must have paid for this little girl's purchase of the house, and my parents are too partial to my little girl!"

Xia Manxing was extremely aggrieved.

Her family's second daughter is still squeezed into the same room with the two of them, and the parents don't think that the house at home is not enough to live in, so they build a few more rooms.

"Second sister-in-law, please keep your voice down so that mother won't hear you."

Xia Manxing said dissatisfied: "I heard it when I heard it, and I didn't talk nonsense."

Xie Mingzhu who was outside the kitchen heard the words of the two sister-in-laws, and immediately had a new understanding of the two sister-in-laws.

"Second sister-in-law, is the kitchen cleaned?"

When Xia Manxing heard Xie Mingzhu's voice, her eyes were filled with astonishment, she patted her chest guilty, she didn't know what she just said, did my sister-in-law hear it?
"Packed up!"

Zhu Yeqing saw that Xie Mingzhu came in with so many bamboo shoots on her back, and asked curiously, "Are you planning to get this to eat?"

"I'll try and see if I can eat it."

Xie Laosan's family has a big iron pot, a big earthen pot, and the rest are just some odds and ends.

"Do you want me to help?" Zhu Yeqing asked.

Xie Mingzhu put down her back pocket and said, "Sister-in-law San, please trouble me to scoop some water into the iron pot."

While Zhu Yeqing was helping Xie Mingzhu, Xia Manxing sneaked out of the kitchen.

She was afraid that she would not come out again, and she couldn't help venting the resentment in her heart to Xie Mingzhu.

Xie Mingzhu boiled it twice with clear water, and the bitter taste in the bamboo shoots soon disappeared, replaced by a delicate fragrance of tender bamboo.

"Sister-in-law three, is there any salt meat at home?"

Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, and said: "I'm not very clear, you can ask mother!"

Xie Mingzhu found Mrs. Zhao, and Mrs. Zhao was always used to Xie Mingzhu, so she hurriedly said, "Yes, there is also a piece of bacon. I think your sister-in-law will be back soon, and there are fresh pork knuckles too!"

Xie Mingzhu took Zhao Shi's arm and said coquettishly, "Mother, let's go get some meat, and I'll make something delicious for you tonight."

"You can do it?" Zhao couldn't help asking.

Xie Mingzhu said coquettishly, "Let me try!"

"Okay, let's go back and get the meat."

After Xie Mingzhu and Mrs. Zhao left, Xia Qingxing returned to the kitchen with lingering fears. As soon as she saw the third daughter-in-law, Zhu Yeqing, she continued to complain: "My parents are too spoiled with her. That piece of bacon belongs to the family. How can the only piece be spoiled by her?"

Zhu Ye Qing tasted the bamboo shoots just now, it was very fragrant.

Maybe, adding bacon will give it a different flavor.

It wasn't until Zhao Shi and Xie Mingzhu went home that the three brothers of the Xie family knew that their parents had bought a house for Xie Mingzhu.

The three of them stopped studying at all, and helped Xie Mingzhu move the family's things into the house while it was still early.

The three elder brothers of the Xie family also knew what the house of the third Xie family was like.

The family took care of the house in full swing.

The eldest daughter-in-law Liu Guizhi came back, but found that the house was empty except for her own son.

"Boss, where's your grandma?"

The boss was sitting in front of the sand table practicing calligraphy, when Liu Guizhi asked, he said, "At my aunt's house."

"Aunt's house."

Children from poor families have long been in charge of the family, and this little grandson of the Xie family is no exception. He told the whole story in an orderly manner.

Liu Guizhi simply didn't let go of his pockets, and took his son to Xie Mingzhu's new home.

With the help of the three older brothers, Xie Mingzhu and Qin Che can live here tonight.

As soon as Xie Mingzhu saw Liu Guizhi, she couldn't wait to ask, "Sister-in-law, where's the meat?"

"here I am!"

Xie Mingzhu picked out a piece of fat but thin pork belly from Liu Guizhi's back pocket.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go to work first."

When Xie Mingzhu and Mrs. Zhao came home just now, they also brought some food, rice, oil and salt.

The others were helping to clean up the house, Xie Mingzhu, who was so fat, couldn't move, so she didn't want to make trouble, so she simply took Erya into the kitchen.

"Erya, help Auntie add more firewood, and Auntie will cook something delicious for you in a while."

Erya replied sweetly: "Okay."

Xie Mingzhu cut the longer bamboo shoots into two, washed the bacon and cut it into small pieces.

After Erya heated up the iron pan, she swiftly rubbed the skin of the pork belly on the hot pan vigorously, so that the heat of the iron pan would burn off the hair roots on the pork belly.

She then used a kitchen knife to scrape off the hair roots on the skin of the meat, washed it, and cut it into small cubes.

After washing the iron pot with clean water, when the pot was heated up, Xie Mingzhu put the pork belly into the pot, stir-fried the pork belly slightly to remove the fat, then added the bacon and bamboo shoots and stir-fried.

Add water and bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer over low heat.

In the air, there was a strong smell of meat in a short while.

Erya, who was sitting in front of the stove and lighting the fire, couldn't help asking curiously, "Auntie, what are you making? It smells so good!"
