Chapter 231 Ready to go
In late June, the rice in every household seemed to be ripe. The weather has been hot recently, and the rice matured a few days earlier than usual.

So every household in the village began to gear up, and the whole family mobilized to harvest in the fields.

Because Shen Chenlan's cooking was well received in previous years, this year he is still taking on the big responsibility.

On weekdays, Lin Ru and Jiang Ning were always reluctant to let him cook because he needed to hold a pen with his hands.

Coupled with the fact that he was admitted as a scholar, his family members took pity on his hands even more.

Now it's hard to eat the food he cooks.

Every year during the busy season, the Jiang family would slaughter a chicken. This time, Shen Chenlan used the chicken to boil a chicken soup. He scooped up the chicken halfway and made a cold shredded chicken. The remaining chicken bones were put in the soup pot and continued to boil.

This is a well-raised chicken from the farm.

As soon as the chicken soup was boiled, the delicious smell of chicken soup permeated the whole room.

Shen Chenlan used to live in the city, so he didn't think chicken would be any different.

Now that I have come here and eaten real farm chickens, I know how different the taste of this kind of domestic chicken is, and the more the soup is boiled, the more fragrant it becomes.

After Shen Chenlan finished cooking the meat and vegetables, she cooked some seasonal vegetables as usual, then put them on a plate and took them all the way to the field.

When Jiang Shi and Lin Ru sat down to eat, they also saw many people nearby, bringing food to their husband.

The daughter-in-law of the Liu family also arrived with a big basket.

Seeing that the Jiang family happened to be nearby too this time, the daughter-in-law of the Liu family hesitated for a moment, then walked over and said, "This time I brought mung bean syrup, do you want a bowl for each? This time I cooked quite a lot."

The Jiang family was stunned, and Shen Chenlan said: "Then let's have two bowls, thank you, I cooked it at home too, let's go back and let it cool before drinking."

The daughter-in-law of the Liu family nodded and went back happily when she heard the words, and then filled two full bowls and came over.

Shen Chenlan took it and gave it to Jiang Shi and Lin Ru.

The daughter-in-law of the Liu family returned after delivering the sugar water.

When Liu Jiagong's father saw her coming back, he asked, "How is it?"

The daughter-in-law said, "Give it to Uncle Jiang and his sister-in-law."

Father Liu nodded his head, and the old Jiang's family agreed to accept him. He had always felt sorry for him before, but now the family is living a good life because of Shen Xiucai's fertile methods.

Not only was I full, but I even drank sugar water.

Naturally, I have to thank others.

And I heard recently that Shen Xiucai is going to move away with Lao Jiang's family. The family's fields are not planted, and they plan to rent them out from the village chief, so they just want to charge some rent.

There happened to be someone in his Liu family, and the Jiang family's field was next door to him, so he naturally wanted to rent it together, so it would be convenient to plant in the future.

Now it's just an olive branch first, to see if Lao Jiang can rent the land to him for the sake of affection.

Therefore, he didn't feel bad at all when he gave this sugar water away.

After that, it took the Jiang family five days to harvest the rice, then threshed and dried it in the sun.

At the beginning of July, Jiang's family was still drying millet, so they were not so busy.

Shen Chenlan and Jiang Ning cleaned up and were ready to go to Changping City.

Originally they planned to rent a mule cart to go there, but Uncle Yong'an came over several times in advance and said that they would take them in a horse cart.

It is said that the carriage is more spacious than the mule cart, it can hold a lot of things, and it can go faster, let them not waste that money, they just send the boys over to take them off.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Chenlan still accepted uncle's kindness.

So when the carriage was about to be loaded, he sent a message in advance, and within a few days, Yong'an Jiang's family came over with the carriage.
