Chapter 14

Zhong Chuchu told everyone what they had to do, which was to plant these trees and vegetables in the place she designated.

As for this kind of stuff, everyone is used to it, so it’s not difficult at all.

For such a job, you can get [-] cents, and everyone is very willing to do it.

Seeing that no one had any objections, she said, "Then let's come back after lunch."

Everyone thought it was feasible, and there was no one who wanted to stay at someone else's house to eat. They made an appointment to come over together later, and then went home.

In the late afternoon, several sisters-in-law started to have sex in the backyard of Zhong Chuchu's house.

They are the two sisters-in-law from the Zhao family and the Wu family next door.

Some of those who came just now still felt that Zhong Chuchu was a little unreliable when they went home to discuss it, and they were afraid that they would not be able to settle the account after doing the work.

After all, Zhong Chuchu's reputation has never been very good in the town.

There are also a few people who feel that this job is a bit tiring and they might as well wear shoe soles at home.

So these were the only three people who came over at noon.

Although there were few people, the person who came was somewhat familiar with Zhong Chuchu. Needless to say, Ms. Zhao next door was a diligent woman.

The Wu sisters-in-law also don't talk much.

Zhong Chuchu was quite satisfied that these three people could come. After all, there were quite a lot of fruit seedlings, so he was afraid of those talkative women.

The three of them were very quick with their hands and feet and quickly planted all the seedlings and vegetables that Zhong Chuchu took out.

Zhong Chuchu checked it over and found that the tree seedlings were well planted, which was incomparable to someone like her who didn't know how to do any farm work.

Fortunately, she wanted to make money for herself and give everyone some soup, otherwise this kind of work would be tiring and she wouldn't know how to do it.

Zhao's life was indeed easy, and Zhong Chuchu's personality had indeed changed a lot, and she was completely relieved.

When she came here just now, several women she liked to chat with on weekdays advised her not to come, but when she thought about the situation at home, she still wanted to give it a try.

Looking at Zhong Chuchu who was talking to Mrs. Wu, she had bright and white teeth and was not like women like them at all, so she said unexpectedly: "Dabao Niang, my best friend is getting married on the third day of the lunar month next month. Can you help her dress up then?" ?”

Little Wu asked curiously: "Your daughter is only sixteen this year, so why did she get married so early?"

Mrs. Zhao was also reluctant to give up, but she thought that her son had already reached the age of marriage, but there was no betrothal gift in the family, and no girl was willing to marry into their family.

Therefore, the only option is to marry off the daughter early and use the daughter's dowry to marry her brother.

But you can't say this outside.

"Well, my daughter is marrying someone who has been dating her since she was a child. She is eager to get married. Her father and I discussed it. The marriage will happen sooner or later, so it is better to just follow them."

Xiao Wu nodded: "Yes, as long as the child is willing, we as parents can support it!"

Zhong Chuchu agrees with this view, but she does not agree with women getting married at such a young age.

In the era in which she lived, the legal age for marriage was only twenty for a woman, and many girls never even got married, and she was one of them.But what if she doesn't agree?

In this era, parents order matchmakers, and her concept does not apply here.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhao was still waiting for her reply, she agreed: "Of course, I will make Xiaomei look beautiful when the time comes."

Xiaomei is Zhao's daughter. Her full name is Zhao Mei. She is a very well-behaved girl.

The predecessor used to be away from home often and left the two children at home. Zhao Mei often secretly sent some food to the two children. Although they were just some thick-wheat buns, Zhong Chuchu remembered her affection.

Seeing that she had agreed, Mrs. Zhao smiled and said, "I feel relieved with your help. Although Xiaomei is planning to marry a baby, we don't know what she looks like. I also want Xiaomei to dress up better and make her look better." If the other party likes her more, then her life will be much easier if her husband likes her after marriage."

Zhong Chuchu: "Never seen each other?"

Mrs. Wu covered her mouth and chuckled: "What's weird about this? Let alone the baby kiss, it was introduced by the matchmaker. There are many people who have never met each other before getting married, so there is nothing to make a fuss about."

After saying that, she winked at Zhong Chuchu: "Isn't it the same for you and Lin Xiucai?"

Zhong Chuchu didn't know what happened between the original person and Lin Xiucai, and couldn't remember it at all, as if she didn't have this memory.

Maybe it was too personal. The original person didn't want to leave the memory to her, so she could only be speechless.

The women all laughed when they saw her embarrassed look.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely harmonious, and now everyone officially regarded Zhong Chuchu as one of their own.

The voices of women laughing and cursing could be heard from time to time in the backyard. For the first time, Zhong Chuchu felt the happiness of her friends here, even though her friends were actually a group of married women with children.

In the evening, smoke began to fill the town. The two sisters-in-law of the Wu family hurried home to cook. Zhao Mei also came over to tell Mrs. Zhao to go home, and the three of them left.

Before leaving, Zhong Chuchu paid off today's money. These saplings have been planted, but she still has a lot of things to do later. The weather is cold, and she has to keep these trees warm. Although they were transplanted by Blue Star, they are good for all kinds of trees. It can adapt to all kinds of growing environments, but the appearance still needs to be fake, otherwise it will be too strange.

In the evening, after the two children fell asleep, Zhong Chuchu finally had time to count the money she earned today. She went out to buy 958 cents for chickens and 1328 cents for buns. She now still has a total of 328 cents, plus the money she earned last time. Yes, now there are a total of [-] Wen at home, which is one or two [-] Wen.

This amount of money is quite considerable when placed here, but for Zhong Chuchu, it is not enough!

She wanted both children to go to school. A year's training would cost two taels of silver, not counting books and pens. After all, she would have five taels of silver a year.

One tael of silver is equivalent to a thousand copper coins, so she still has a long way to go!
Dabao and Xiaobao also knew that their mother was busy making money, so they both took the initiative to take care of the chicks.

The little chicks are so cute, the little one is not much bigger than his hand.

As soon as the two children came back, they guarded the chickens and even stopped counting the ants, which they loved the most.

Zhong Chuchu put the chickens into the house at noon, and then made a nest out of some old clothes. There should be no problem during the day, but she had to be careful that the temperature was too low at night.

She couldn't sleep well all night and got up several times in the middle of the night, worried that the chicks would freeze to death. These little lives are really too fragile.

She got up early the next morning. First, she went to Blue Star to get some earthworms and some water. The food in Blue Star was better than outside. Feeding some of this to the chicks should improve the chicks' physique. .
