Good farming at the foot of Changbai Mountain

Chapter 178 Jing Ya Gives Birth
The rural examination was held in Shencheng in early August.This Shencheng is the largest city in the Northeast, and it is a very prosperous place.In this era, a two-level state and county system was adopted, but in some places, the state will be changed to the prefecture.Generally speaking, such places are relatively prosperous or very important places, and Shencheng is the political and economic center of the Northeast, so its status is naturally very important.

The place where Xu's family lives is quite far from Shencheng, and Wen Han and the others are worried that they will not be acclimatized when they go out, so they have to leave early.So, everyone decided to leave on the eighth day of July.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, Wenhan, Pengcheng, and Zixuan, together with Guoqiang and a servant from the Yue family, were about to set off in a car.

Jinghan didn't go down the mountain to send Zixuan off, she was afraid that she couldn't help but want to follow along, anyway, what should be said has already been said, so it doesn't matter if she doesn't go to send Zixuan off.Zixuan knew that Jinghan was still on the mountain, and the two of them had discussed it long ago, so they didn't feel lost or anything.

Jingya came to see Pengcheng off with a big belly. She has been pregnant for more than eight months now, and her body is already very heavy.Bai He and Bai Wei next to her carefully supported Jingya, for fear that she might make a mistake.

Jingya looked at Pengcheng, and stretched out her hand to smooth her husband's skirt, "Be careful when you go out, don't eat indiscriminately. Also, don't trust others easily, people's hearts are separated by belly, who knows what they are at ease? You have to take good care of yourself. Take care of yourself, you know?" Jingya urged earnestly.

Pengcheng couldn't help holding Jingya in his arms, "I'm fine, I have my eldest brother and Zixuan together. But you, be careful, you've been pregnant for more than eight months now, and you may give birth when I come back. You You must be careful at home, find your father and mother if you have something to do, and just take good care of yourself."

Pengcheng bent down, reached out and touched Jingya's round belly, "Son, daddy is going out, do you hear me obediently at home? Protect your mother well, don't be naughty."

There was a sudden movement in Jingya's stomach, as if agreeing to Pengcheng's words.Pengcheng felt the fetal movement and smiled foolishly. "Jingya, look, my son has promised me."

Jingya smiled helplessly, "Okay, my son is reassuring you. It's getting late, so hurry up, my son and I are waiting for your good news."

Over there, both Wen Han and Zixuan couldn't bear Pengcheng's moaning, "Okay, Pengcheng, it's only a month or so, can you two stop being so clingy?"

Jingya was a little embarrassed, and pushed Pengcheng, telling him to leave quickly.Pengcheng touched Jingya's stomach again, then reluctantly got into the carriage, and waved to Jingya. "Okay, go back quickly, you are too tired to stand for a long time, you can't bear it."

Guoqiang raised his whip, and the horse spread its hooves and ran forward.Jingya kept waving her hands from behind until the carriage was out of sight.

The days passed like running water, and in a blink of an eye, it was already August.Jinghan thinks about Zixuan every day, and she can't get excited about doing anything.Looking at her, Jingxian knew that she had something on her mind, so she didn't come to Jinghan for ordinary things.

Lin Xing's family came to the mountain this day, and brought along the new fruit wine from the winery, "Come on, Jinghan, come and taste this wine made by uncle, see how it goes?"

Jinghan took the wine jar, opened the lid on it, and a strong fruity aroma mixed with the wine came out.If the jujube itself is about to rot, it will produce a smell of wine, so after adding some raw materials, the smell of wine will be stronger.Jinghan inhaled the aroma vigorously, "It smells so good, Uncle Lin, you are so amazing that you actually brewed wine."

"Hahaha, this is actually very simple, and it doesn't take too much trouble to make it. I brewed more than 1000 catties of fruit wine this time, and I sent it to Baiweilou before I came here, so that shopkeeper Sun can taste it. .He said it was very good, there was no need for those wines made from grain, and he said he would have all those wines. I thought you guys haven’t tasted this wine yet, so I brought some for everyone to taste.” Lin Xingjia smiled triumphantly.The secret recipe of the Lin family's wine making is really easy to use.

Xue took out several bowls and put them on the table.Jinghan poured the wine into a bowl, and asked her father and Wencheng to taste it.In fact, Jinghan really wanted to taste it herself, but in front of this future father-in-law, how could she dare?

But Xingjia didn't care about that at all, and put a bowl of wine in front of Jinghan. "Jinghan, come on, you have a taste too. Shopkeeper Sun said that this wine is more suitable for women. You can taste it for uncle and see how it is."

Jinghan had no choice but to pick up the bowl and take a sip.This wine feels very soft in the mouth, and the rich fruit aroma contains wine aroma, and the layering is not bad.And the sweet and sour taste is indeed more suitable for women to drink. However, the alcohol content of this wine may not be low, and ordinary people will get drunk.

"Uncle Lin, the taste of this wine is really good. Congratulations to Uncle Lin, you can make such a good wine. By the way, not only dates, but also mountain grapes can be used to make wine. This is the season when mountain grapes are ripe. Uncle Lin might as well try to make some more. Maybe we can really brew another kind of wine." Jinghan didn't dare to drink more, just sipped it twice.After wiping her mouth with a handkerchief, Jing Han made another suggestion.

"I'll just tell you, I'll come up with a good idea if I ask you. Since you said it would work, then I'll try. The mountain grapes are everywhere, and the children in the village have time to make them. It's simple." Xingjia He clapped his hands happily. He really likes Jinghan, his daughter-in-law. "By the way, your father said that he gave you the members of the winery as a dowry. When I come back, I will bring the account. You have a look. Our winery hasn't paid any dividends since last year."

"Uncle Lin, why are you being so polite? Aren't mine from Zixuan? Let's put them in the winery. It's important to collect more food in autumn. Our winery wants to make money, not only the secret recipe, but also the secret recipe. Only if the output can increase." Jinghan shook her head and smiled, she just enjoyed the feeling of earning money, and she didn't have to figure out every penny.

"No, this dowry is a woman's reliance. The imperial court has a law expressly stipulating that a woman's dowry can only be left to her children, and her husband's family cannot take it. Besides, our family does not lack your three-in-one. Take care of it yourself." Xingjia waved his hand, he was very clear about this.

Now that she has said so, it is not easy for Jinghan to refuse, she just said that it is enough to look at the accounts, and it is better to keep the money in the winery for turnover.

Lin Xing's family was thinking about what Jinghan said about making wine from mountain grapes, so they ate here at noon and hurried back.This season is a good time for the mountain grapes to mature, and the autumn harvest has not yet begun, so the children can also have the opportunity to go up the mountain to pick them.So Xingjia asked Guoping and the others to go out to help harvest the grapes.

These mountain grapes are easier to pick than Dian dates, so the price is slightly lower.However, the quantity of this thing is large, and it is very easy to get [-] to [-] catties a day, and it is not very tiring for the children to get a hundred or so coins a day.One hundred Wen is not a small amount for a child in the countryside.Although not all of the money can be kept in the hands of the children, some of the money can still be beneficial, so the acquisition of mountain grapes went smoothly.

It was agreed in the village that the club will be raised on August [-]th this year, so that it can be combined with land requisition.After the hammer is finished, the women can do the goods at home, and the men can go to reclaim the land.Autumn is a season for busy people. These jobs are all next to each other, and they have to be done slowly in the same way.

Zhixin looked at the crops in the field, and felt that the soybeans were indeed not dry enough, and it was just right to harvest the field after the hammer was lifted.The Xu family still has about [-] mu of land this year, and the family has enough staff, so there is nothing to worry about.

On the twelfth day of the eighth month, all the people in the village came up with clubs, and of course the servants in the yamen were indispensable.Everyone really hates these people so much, but there is no way, you can't fight against the court, right?

Of course, the Xu family didn't have to hand in the sticks this year. The 45-foot sticks weighed a total of [-] catties.The old man also came to the mountain in advance, looking at the several sacks of clubs in the field, the old man kept smiling happily.

When the stick came back, Mrs. Xue led Mrs. Li and the others to start making goods with sticks.Jinghan led Honglian and they all followed, so it would be faster to do it this way.

Zhixin led the male family to reclaim the land. Seventy mu of land is not too much, and it is full of strong laborers. It took only a few days to get all of them back.Next to Xu's new house is a large open space, which is used for drying grain in autumn, so all the grain is put here.Zhixin took the people with him, took care of everything, and then received it in the warehouse.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is over in a busy way. This year, Wenhan is going to take the provincial examination, while Wenxuan and Wenchang are going to take the college entrance examination. The family is a bit deserted.So the old man and the old lady discussed it, and they said that the Mid-Autumn Festival would be enough to pay for it, and they would have a good time when the children came back.

On August [-]th, Jingya's stomach hurts suddenly, and now, Yue's family is full of excitement.After three or four hours of tossing, Jingya gave birth to a fat boy.

Yue Siyuan was so happy that he quickly asked his wife to give the midwife a big red envelope.Since Peng Cheng hadn't come back yet, he could only send the boy at home to report the news everywhere.

The Xu family was the first to receive the news, and the old lady was even more happy when she heard that her granddaughter was found.Hurry up and send people to the mountain to announce the good news, let Xue Shi and the others come back quickly, and prepare to wash the child.

Jinghan and Jingxian heard the good news on the mountain, they couldn't stay there, they insisted on coming back together, so the whole family returned to the town.
