Dressed as a farmer group pet

Chapter 217 Chapter 216

After returning home, it was inevitable that they would be checked and questioned by their parents. Fortunately, although Xiaomi ran a long distance, he was not injured and came back intact, so the two of them were relieved.

I just told her that she can't do this in the future, running around for a day will make her family worry so much.

Xiaomi had already thought about what he was going to do in the future, so naturally he nodded his head again and again, agreeing seriously.

After dinner, the family enjoyed the shade in the yard. The moonlight was so beautiful tonight that there was no need to light an oil lamp.

Jiang Hu and Erniang listened to Wei Ziang and Jiang Wei's endorsement, because their sons are all in school, and the parents have also learned something by now.

Not to mention reading hundreds of volumes, but at least they can be literate, and some even have some. They can probably memorize some of the homework that children often recite in front of them.

Under Xiaomi's strong request, Xiaoxue was not allowed to read and embroider at night.

Whether it is reading or embroidering, it is all delicate work with the eyes, especially embroidery, even if it is only embroidered during the day, it is not good for the eyes after a long time.

In addition, when Liu Ze returned home before, he also asked people to inquire about it, and it was confirmed that some older embroiderers, although good at craftsmanship, had some eye problems.

So for Xiaoxue's embroidery, everyone deliberately controlled the time so that she would not keep staring at the embroidery needle and thread.

Just like now, even though there are oil lamps and candles at home, Xiaoxue can't read or embroider, but sits next to her parents, rubbing her eyes gently.

It was the eye exercises that Xiaomi taught her. Of course, Xiaomi would not be so stupid as to directly say that it was eye exercises, but that she felt that doing them would make her eyes feel comfortable, so she asked her sister to follow suit.

In view of the fact that everyone always has an invisible trust in Xiaomi, Xiaoxue will do this eye exercise every night and when she is tired from embroidery, and massage around her eyes.

It was getting dark, and it was time for Xiaomi to move around. At this moment, it seemed like it had been injected with chicken blood, and started running around the house.

There are several bedrooms, study rooms, granaries, firewood houses, etc. From time to time, even a cat climbs up the beams and roofs, and even a cat plays happily.

The little black and white days ran too far with the little master, and kept having fun on the road, so he was probably tired, and he was sleeping all the time except for eating.

As for Xiaomi?What is she doing again?
I saw that Xiaomi first listened to their memorization for a while, felt bored, got up, went around the back, and came back with a small flower shovel and a branch in his hand.

The branches are too small, only as long as her palm, and thinner than chopsticks, but there are already some tender buds on them, which are about to grow leaves.

It wasn't bright enough at night, and the things Xiao Hei took were small, so the others didn't see what she took, they only knew that she went around and went to fiddle with the small flower bed.

"Xiaomi, what are you doing?" Er Niang asked her.

Xiaomi: "I broke off a branch on the mountain during the day, and I'll see if I can grow it."

Er Niang laughed: "How can a tree branch be planted, it needs saplings or seeds."

"But the gardenias in the past were grown from branches." Xiaomi didn't look up, looking for reasons for himself.

And with the small shovel in his hand, he had turned over a small piece of ground among the flowers, and planted the twig in it.

By the way, I also poured some spiritual spring water.

But because Xiaomi's back was facing everyone, no one noticed Xiaomi's movements, and Erniang just explained with a smile.

"Gardenias are different. Only a few plants can be grown from branches."

Xiaomi has already done it, and when he heard this, he just said "oh" and got up. As for the little branch, it has been planted in the small flower bed.

It was a small grape branch, but Xiaomi had already cultivated a root system in the space, and now it was watered with spiritual spring water, and there were flowers around it to shade it.

Come to think of it, it shouldn't be too difficult to survive.

But Xiaomi didn't explain this, and after Erniang explained, she consciously came back from the flower bed.

The Jiang family now has a few more hired long-term workers. Originally, they planned to arrange for them to live in the old house, as long as they were cleaned up.

But then I found it troublesome. After all, there are so many chickens, ducks and geese, there must be a place to keep them locked up, so the long-term workers live in the Jiang family's outer courtyard.

There is an inverted room near the door, and the room is relatively large. Several people live in it, and they cook their own meals, but the Jiang family will provide food and vegetables.

The food is coarse grains, there is very little polished rice, and the vegetables are not good looking. After all, the Jiang family eats these too. However, there are three meals of meat dishes every month.

Jiang Hu thought it was a little bad at first, but when Uncle Liu decided to buy a permanent job for the Jiang family, he educated him well.

For some things, there must be a principle.

Jiang Hu felt that the food provided to the long-term workers by his family was not very good, but he didn't know that the long-term workers outside probably couldn't even eat enough coarse grains, and they might not be able to eat two stews a year.

In such a comparison, the long-term workers of the Jiang family are already very, very happy.

What's more, the Jiang family's food, especially corn and sorghum, was sold at a high price, and the taste was even better, almost as good as polished rice.

So except for Jiang Hu himself who was a little embarrassed at the beginning, all the long-term workers were very grateful, feeling that they had found a good employer, and they worked very hard.

But these are off topic.

Those long-term workers lived and boarded in the outer courtyard, and the doors of the inner and outer courtyards were mostly closed with bolts on weekdays.

After all, there are three women in the family. Although there are two middle-aged couples in the long-term work, it is still not appropriate.

In addition, the back door of Jiang's house is closer to the old house, and everyone usually enters and exits through the back door, so it is understandable to tie the front door.

Xiaomi was lying on the bed, thinking that it was summer, it was time to eat watermelon, she hoped to move soon, and she could 'sell' things when she went to the county town.

Shopping in the market in the county seat is definitely more convenient than going to the mountains to 'collect' seeds, and she won't be suspected.

Her current title of Little Lucky Star is very popular in the surrounding villages. She didn't think about it before, but when her father explained it to her last time, she realized that this title has both advantages and disadvantages.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but sighed again.

"What's wrong with Xiaomi?" As soon as Xiaoxue came to the bedside, she heard Xiaomi's sigh.

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about hunting. Second sister, brother is right. I've just started, and I'll continue to practice tomorrow!"

Xiaoxue lay beside Xiaomi, pulled the thin blanket over their stomachs.

Now the weather is hot, but it is still very cool at night, covering the stomach, it is not easy to get sick.

"Then don't run like this for a whole day in the future, we are all in a hurry."

Now that Erniang and Xiaoxue are both at home, Erniang hardly needs to worry about things in the field, so she hardly needs to worry about housework.

Xiaomi: "Don't worry, Second Sister, I understand."

Xiaomi kept her word. From the next day, she went out in the morning, came back at noon, had lunch, took a nap before going out, and was sure to be back before evening.

If it rains, stay home and practice your headshot.

Not to mention, during the period, she was lucky enough to shoot a rabbit in the stomach. The rabbit survived for a while, and ran a certain distance, before being caught by Xiao Hei.

In June, a thunderstorm officially entered summer.

During the recent period, apart from the bumper harvest of wheat and rapeseed, Zhang Xiaohua attracted the most attention.

Zhang Xiaohua actually learned embroidery from Xiaoxue, and now she can embroider some purse handkerchiefs every day, earning a lot of money every day.

As a result, some people's thoughts rose.

Many people asked Jiang Hu if they could let Xiaoxue teach their daughters, and even some newly married daughter-in-laws were pushed out by their mother-in-law.

This is a big project, Jiang Hu didn't directly agree or refuse, but asked Xiaoxue.

The father and daughter discussed it, and Xiaoxue agreed, but there should not be too many people. Except for Zhang Xiaohua, only ten people can come.

Moreover, there is also a limit on the age for learning embroidery. If you are over six years old and under 15 years old, it is not enough or too old, so it is not very meaningful to learn.

The time of day is the same as Zhang Xiaohua's. In the afternoon, I come to Jiang's yard to study for an hour and a half, and then I can go back to my respective homes.

Xiaomi was a little puzzled, but thinking that his father must have his own ideas, he didn't ask any more questions.

Fortunately, both Wei Ziang and Jiang Wei are going to school, and when they come back, these girls should go home.

Xiaomi likes a lively person so much. In this case, I have to say that there are too many people, which is really annoying, especially when women get together.

In less than half a month, she heard all kinds of little gossip, who's girl was engaged to who, who's girl was not good-looking, who's lazy and so on.

That's the premise that she seldom gets together with them. I don't know how many strange gossips Second Sister can hear every day.

In this regard, Xiaomi suddenly expressed sympathy for the second sister.

From summer to autumn, from autumn to winter, Xiaomi finally broke through the hare's restraint, and finally hunted a pheasant!
The pheasant is smaller and requires higher precision. After she wasted a lot of vegetables and grains in the space as bait, her arrow skills have finally improved!

During this period, Xiaomi still insisted on running every morning. Because Wei Ziang had to go to school, he could only accompany her during every break.

After exercising for a long time, Xiaomi felt that his physical endurance had improved a lot, and he became more energetic.

At the beginning of another twelfth lunar month, Jiang Yu finally came back and was sent back by the Liu family.

And this year, Jiang Yu sent five big fat pigs to the county.

In the past few years, the Jiang family raised eight pigs every year, and usually killed two pigs to make bacon, half of which were brought to the county by Uncle Liu, and the Jiang family had to eat the remaining half for half a year.

Uncle Liu doesn't need bacon this year. The Jiang family only needs to kill one pig, and sell the rest.

Not only pigs were sold, but also a lot of grain and chickens, ducks and geese.

Everyone is curious, the Jiang family has never lived like this in the past.

Jiang Hu just explained that it cost too much for Jiang Yu to go to school in the county, and they had to take advantage of these few days to make more money, and when Jiang Yu left in the next year, he would have to bring a lot of money with him.

It's just that if this is the case, it's okay to deceive other people, Xiaomi doesn't believe it 100%.

Dad must have other reasons to do this.

Don't think she doesn't know, when the elder brother came back, not only did he bring nothing but clothes, but he also sent a letter to his father!

According to Uncle Liu's past style, it is impossible to let the eldest brother come back empty-handed, okay?

Nine times out of ten, he was about to leave Fu'an Village, but he didn't want too many people to know, so he said that.

Not only Xiaomi, but even Xiaoxue, who had never known about the move, was vaguely aware of it.

I even asked Xiaomi when I was sleeping, but was fooled by Xiaomi with a few words, and reminded her not to tell others.

Xiaoxue was not a talkative person in the first place, and for the past six months, she listened to other people gossip and gossip every day, but she didn't say anything.

So there is no need to worry about the tight mouth.

On the contrary, with Jiang Yu's return, Wei Ziang breathed a sigh of relief.

After the twelfth lunar month, the school was on holiday, and he was at home every day, but the girls who were learning embroidery didn't have a holiday.

Jiang's family didn't have so many courtyards. Everyone built a fire under the eaves of the inner courtyard, and surrounded the fire while warming up and learning embroidery.

The so-called men and women have different seats at seven years old, Wei Ziang is almost ten years old, and he is also a big boy. There are many girls of the same age in this group of girls.

Plus Wei Ziang is good-looking, that's true, even Xiaomi thinks he looks very, very good-looking.

Although Wei Ziang has been in Fu'an Village and worked with him a lot, he is different from those naughty boys in the village.

He has fair skin and a good face. When he was wearing a scholar's robe, he behaved elegantly and had a cold temperament. He seemed a bit unfriendly.

But in fact, Wei Ziang is also very good at helping out during the busy farming season, and has great strength, almost as strong as Jiang Yu.

Even when he was not in school, he was full of energy and could do everything neatly even when he was wearing shorts. He looked like a different person when he was in school.

It is probably because of this contrast that everyone can't help but take a few more glances.

Xiaomi even overheard that someone seemed to be looking for Jiang Hu, wanting his daughter to marry Wei Ziang?

Xiaomi didn't know who the girl was, but she knew that her father had rejected her. As for the reason, it was not difficult to guess.

But even so, some embarrassing things will inevitably happen.

Just like at this moment, when Xiaomi came back from the mountain with his two brothers and Jiang Wei, someone came over.

It's a girl from the Yang family in the village. She is 12 years old this year, two years older than Xiaoxue.

The girl was holding a handkerchief in her hand, and when she saw Xiaomi and the others, she walked over directly.

"Xiaomi, you are back." Miss Yang greeted Xiaomi, and before Xiaomi could respond, she turned to look at Wei Ziang.

Xiaomi covered her mouth and snickered, this young lady hasn't given up yet.

Sure enough, Wei Ziang, who was still talking to Jiang Yu, suddenly turned cold.

The young lady didn't seem to notice, she blushed and handed the embroidered handkerchief in front of Wei Ziang.

"Xiao Wei, here is the handkerchief I embroidered today, for you."
