Chapter 97 Then Retire?
Seeing this, the servants in the family and the guys in front worked harder than before.

In a flash, it came to May 26th, which was the day when the Feng family hired the Lu family.

Qiao Mai didn't go, and sent two cooks over.

In the afternoon, Shopkeeper Lu came to the house to look for her, with a rather ugly expression on his face.

"Sister, you are really right."

"How much dowry?"

"Thirty lifts. I have read the gift list and checked the betrothal gift. The total amount of the full package does not exceed 1000 taels of silver."

"Don't worry about it. The Feng family has many descendants and supports several scholars. Although it is a small fortune, it is only on the surface. You gave Ruxin a generous dowry. His family dare not covet her dowry. Behind his house, Ruxin can also stand up straight, so we are married."

"Oh, I shouldn't be so anxious. I should wait a little longer. If it weren't for my friend's relatives, I really want to quit this marriage."

"Everyone has their own way, well, at least you have a young and talented son-in-law with a bright future."

"That's what I said, but I just don't have the energy in my heart. If I give less dowry, I just look down on my daughter."

"Then back?"

"Forget it, it's still like this."

"Haha, you, you can't have your cake and eat it too, everything can't be perfect, and the same goes for your son-in-law."

"If he dares to betray my daughter in the future, I'll find someone to kill him."

"You don't need to do anything, I, as a master, will definitely tear him into pieces."

"Hey, it's too serious."

"Has Xin'er started embroidering wedding dresses?"

"I didn't let her embroider. I ordered it directly from Fucheng. It cost 200 taels of silver for a set."

"Fortunately, my mother is really willing."

"It's only once in a lifetime, you have to be willing."

Seeing Lu Sanniang mentioning her daughter, her eyebrows were beaming, and her mood also improved for no reason.

Ling'er is still young, and when she gets married in the future, as a mother, she also wants to let her daughter get married in a good manner from home.

The next day, Qiao Mai asked Yuehong and Yuexia to carry a box, and she carried Linger to the Embroidery Village. In the presence of the shopkeeper Lu and Ruyi, she gave Ruxin 1000 taels of silver notes and two double-sided bags to take away. An embroidered palace fan, and a double-sided embroidered screen to add makeup.

Ruxin was so moved that she cried, except for her mother in this world, it was the master who treated the sisters well.

Not only taught her craft, but also added makeup to such a precious girl.

As she spoke, she was about to kneel down to Qiao Mai, and she helped Ru Xin up.

"Being a master is not good for the apprentice? Who is good for you? If you get married in the evening, the master will add more make-up. Your mother hates marriage. She let you get married so early. If you ask me, I have to keep you no matter what." One or two years."

Ru Xin blushed, "I'll follow my mother's arrangements, and it's not far away, if I want to come back, I'll be there in an hour by carriage."

Upon hearing the meaning of these words, Qiao Mai understood that this girl was very willing to love that kid from the Feng family.

Sigh~ Girls don't want to stay, she only has that man in her eyes, she doesn't think about the future at all, she must have love, no matter how hard life is, it will be sweet, right?

So Youyou said, "Sister, you must remember to bring the dowry gift list to the government for filing."

As soon as she said this, Lu Sanniang immediately woke up.

"Yes, our dowry is many times that of their betrothal gift. My daughter is submissive. I must not be cheated by their family in the future. Sister, you reminded me well, I will go to the Yamen tomorrow."

"Well, you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others. We must guard the hard-earned money."

"understood,"

What should be done has been done, what should be explained, and nothing to do, she carried Ling'er to the shop.

It was the time when the shop was crowded, and some old customers were resting at the tables outside and saw her hurriedly saying hello.

"I said Mrs. Qiao, what are you doing at home all day, we are all waiting for you to come here and make delicious food."

"I won't do it today. I'm tired. I'll go home after playing with my daughter."

"Yo, how old is my daughter?"

"One year and more than three months old."

"You're so beautiful. You're not very old, but you really know how to raise children. This little girl is really good at raising children."

"Eat well, dress well, it will naturally be like this."

Everyone looked at Ling'er in her arms, envious. The clothes on her body, the jade on the silver collar, and the exquisite shoes all revealed Qiao Mai's love for the child.

Some people whispered, "I heard that Mrs. Qiao gave birth to a girl before she divorced, and she died within a few days of premature delivery. She was so good to this girl, maybe it was because of the former girl?"

"It should be. I heard that the birthdays are all on the same day."

"Oh, it's really difficult for her."

Since Qiao Mai practiced inner strength and mind skills and the cheats of cultivating immortals, her hearing has been quite sensitive, and she has heard everything they said.

It's just that she pretended not to hear, and the corners of her lips curled up. This is what she wanted.

Everyone in the world thinks that she is her adopted daughter, so the Tian family should not try to think about Ling'er in the future.

The child belongs to her alone, and she does not allow the Tian family to stretch out that dirty hand towards Ling'er. If one day, Ling'er really wants to, she doesn't mind killing all the Tian family.

On May 27, Yuan Jiaqi and the children came back.

Seeing Mr. Wang, Qiao Mai felt a bit of a headache. The old man couldn't rest for a few days, and he followed him back every time.

But this time back, she didn't let them idle.

Other people's wheat has been harvested, but her five acres of land have not yet been confiscated, just waiting for them to come back.

The tenants took over the [-] mu of land, and handed over [-] catties of grain per mu of land.

Today, the weather is good and the weather is good. The harvest is [-] catties per mu, the tenants get [-] catties per mu, and the family has [-] catties of grain.

They don't need to care about anything, and the net is four thousand catties. The three tenants are very happy.

The Qiao family paid 65 catties of grain tax per mu, [-] mu equals [-] catties, and [-] catties of wheat.

If the five acres of land were harvested, there would be more than 4000 catties of wheat in the warehouse, which would be enough to feed the family for a year.

Wait until autumn, and you can collect another wave.

Those three tenant farmers grow corn, which is usually planted in fertile fields. Only sweet potatoes, peanuts and other root crops are planted in the wasteland where the harvest is not easy to reclaim.

The farm tools at home were all ready, and Qiao Mai ordered more than a dozen sets in one go at the blacksmith's shop.

Except for the two girls, the cook and Yuehong, one of them cooks and the other takes care of the children, everyone else went to the field. Even Mr. Wang wanted to experience the feeling of a farmer harvesting wheat.

Five acres of land, eight adults and three children, all harvested in one day, and it hasn't rained these days.

The ears of wheat are all dry, so there is no need to dry them in the sun. They are rubbed directly on the open ground. More than 2000 catties of wheat took two days and went directly into the warehouse.

On the third day, Qiao Mai hired a tenant farmer from his family to plow the five acres of land, and planted the corn seeds she provided like them.

When the rainy season came, she didn't want to bother, so she just planted this. After the corn was harvested, in winter, she planted vegetables out of season.

It was rare that the old gentleman gave them two extra days off and stayed at home for five days.

Because of the hot weather, the family either eats cold noodles or noodles with fried sauce. Fortunately, they are served with six delicious cold dishes, and my husband is not picky.

He said that after doing the work, eating is delicious.

When he left, he ransacked Qiao Mai's shop again, and he gave Qiao Mai a message from his granddaughter.

Ms. Wang said that she would come back when she moved. She is busy with the family business now, because the Wang family has obtained many prescriptions, and she is so busy that she can't get away.

Seeing that the date of completion of the new home is getting closer, Qiao Mai and Yaxing ordered a few sika deer, a few red deer, and two cows. She wanted antler for the first one, and musk for the second. For herbivores, she can grow them in space, so she doesn't have to worry about their feed.
