After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

As New Year's Eve approaches, every household begins to send New Year gifts before the festival.

Liu Ji followed Qin Feng, and Qin Yao was not idle either.

She had asked the shopkeeper of Fulon Commercial Bank to help bring a letter back to the village a long time ago, so the New Year gifts in Kaiyang County had been arranged by Song Yu and his wife.

As for the few familiar neighbors in Kyoto, there is no need to prepare overly expensive gifts, just focus on daily food and daily necessities.

It is popular to send pigs here. The Qiu family, the Qi Yushi family, the Wang Jin family, and the Qin Yao family each sent half a fan.

Even numbers look good, and another family has a pair of rabbits.

Qin Yao and Dalang went to the wild woods outside the city to hunt this rabbit. It was not easy to get and it was quite rare.

Because the mountains and forests in the suburbs of Beijing are owned by someone else, if a civilian breaks into someone else's forest to hunt without permission, he will be sent to prison if caught.

Even so, I still met a kind person.

If you offend any duke, marquis, earl or the like, your whole family will suffer.

Therefore, the wild rabbit sent by Qin Yao's family was very popular with the neighbors.

No matter what era it is, things are valuable because they are rare.

I don’t care how expensive this thing is, I just want to have it while others don’t, so that I will feel very proud.

Qin Yao also prepared generous gifts from the Qi family, but before she could ask Qi Xianguan whether she wanted to send it.

People from the Qi family arrived first.

The person who came was Qi Xianguan's uncle. He did not work in the court and was just an idler at home.

But because of his status as a free man, he doesn't have to worry too much and can do many things easily, and he has become like a housekeeper at home.

Qin Yao and his wife were delivering holiday gifts everywhere, while Ma Yang and Dalang and his two siblings were still at the porridge stall.

There were only Awang, Qi Xianguan and his servant at home.

Hearing a knock on the door, Awang opened it and saw a strange face who claimed to be Qi Xiangguan's uncle. He then slammed the door shut.

Uncle Qi was about to step forward, but was narrowly avoided being hit on the nose by the door that suddenly closed.

Awang didn't care what happened to his nose, and quickly ran to the guest house to inform Qi Xianguan: "Young Master, run quickly, your family has sent people to arrest you!"

As he spoke, he looked in all directions, searching for a safe way out.

"Go through the back door. The alley over there leads to two places. Go to the market side. There is a dog hole under the wall. Go out and you can go directly to the outside of the market."

Awang spoke these words quickly and emotionally, and secretly thanked Lu Xiaofeng, the provider of the secret passage.

Thanks to him, otherwise no one would know that there was such a secret passage in Kuanzhengfang.

Qi Xianguan was caught off guard by Awang's series of combined punches. It took him a moment to realize what he was saying.

He was touched and signaled to Awang not to worry and to tell him who the visitor was first.

If it's someone sent by your grandma, grandpa, parents, there's no need to panic.

But if it was sent by my great-grandfather, it won’t be too late to drill through the dog hole!

Qi Xianguan secretly clenched his fists and began to mentally prepare himself to crawl through a dog hole.

Then I heard Awang say, "The man who came here claims to be the young master's uncle."

Wait, it seems that I don’t need to prepare myself mentally to dig a dog hole.

Shitou said in surprise: "It's the Second Master, Young Master, we can go home now!"

Qi Xianguan also breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that my great-grandfather is not going to pursue me anymore."

"Are you going to leave?" Awang asked, looking a little excited.

He can cook for two less people!

Awang's thoughts were written all over his face. Qi Xiangguan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He coughed twice in embarrassment and thanked Awang for coming to remind him.

He quickly took Shitou to the front door to welcome him in. Uncle Qi looked around his nephew's house as he entered. The house was not luxurious at all, but it was warm and cozy everywhere.

The yard is big and there are few people, so it is much quieter than his home.

No wonder the kids at home don’t want to go home.

Of course, Uncle Qi chose the opportunity to come when the master was not at home.

The wife of Gong Liangliao's apprentice has a bad reputation and no one dares to offend her.

"You kid, you know how to find a backer." Uncle Qi poked Qi Xiangguan on the back of the head and scolded him unhappily.

Qi Xianguan smiled politely, secretly testing the opinions of his family elders.

Uncle Qi said with a smile: "I'm here, and you still don't understand? The New Year is coming soon. It's the New Year, so just talk about reunion and don't ask about anything else."

"Pack your bedding quickly and go with your uncle. You have been bothering me for so long. If I don't let you go, how will I see the elders of our Qi family?"

Qi Xianguan said: "I am not eating and living for free, I also paid for the food."

"Five taels of silver a month!"

But his junior brother didn't give him any discount at all!
Uncle Qi heard this and looked at Qi Xianguan curiously, "When did our Qi family's little prodigy start to feel sorry for five taels of silver?"

Qi Xianguan's expression became serious. "Uncle, five taels of silver is enough for a family of three to spend for half a year."

"If there is a natural disaster or war, we can still buy another person."

Uncle Qi was slightly startled. Looking at Qi Xianguan who was leading Shi Tou into the house to pack his luggage himself, he suddenly felt like his own child had grown up.

Looking at the boy's height again, after not seeing him for two months, he seemed to have grown taller and was almost as tall as his uncle.

Isn't this growing up? After the Chinese New Year, when you turn fifteen, you are old enough to get married.

Qi Xianguan knew that his uncle chose this point because he didn't want to confront Qin Yao.

He laughed secretly in his heart for a while, marveling at the fact that Qin Yao's reputation could actually intimidate his own uncle.

Qi Xianguan simply packed his luggage, left a letter, asked Awang to help inform everyone, and then went home with his uncle.

The Qi family left a whole cart of generous New Year gifts.

Not to mention cloth, meat and duck, there were even two baskets of emerald green fruits and vegetables in the winter.

In the evening, Qin Yao and his wife returned home and learned that Qi Xiangguan had been taken back by his family. They couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Especially Dalang, who was best friends with Qi Xianguan, was in a depressed mood for a while.

It wasn't until the green vegetables were served on the table that his eyes lit up instantly.

Qin Feng said enviously, "All those farms in the suburbs are built with greenhouses by the various mansions in the city, ensuring that people can eat fresh vegetables even in winter. This is a costly and laborious thing that ordinary people cannot afford."

"Just this dish, now outside the restaurant can sell it for twenty taels per plate."

When the children heard what their uncle said, they opened their mouths in surprise.

After a while, Sanlang suddenly asked seriously: "Mother, if I build a shed and grow vegetables when I grow up, can I earn a lot of money to support our family?"

Qin Yao nodded, "It should be."

Sanlang was delighted, "Then I won't study anymore, I'll grow vegetables!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap on the head from his father.

Liu Ji cursed: "If you dare not study, I will beat you to death."

Sanlang's eyes were filled with tears because of the pain, but he didn't want to cry.

I just hid behind my mother and continued to verify:
"Mother, isn't the purpose of studying to earn more money? I can also earn more money by growing vegetables. We have different paths but the same goal, aren't they the same?"

Qin Yao and Liu Ji looked at each other, and it seemed that nothing was wrong. (End of this chapter)
