Xianggong farming

Chapter 85
Ji Xinmiao knew that although Ji Wang was straightforward, she became more low-key when she got older.Today she said that Mrs. Gao would not give up on inquiring about the family, so Ji Xinmiao persuaded: "Sister, what mother said is right, we should pay attention to it. Don't say that we can't earn a lot of money, we should keep a low profile Even if you really earn a lot of money, you can't say that people know about it. As the saying goes, money should not be exposed, and this truth is correct. But, mother, if someone really brings up this matter in the future, you can say that it is just a child's greedy fool. "

Seeing the different personalities of the two daughters, Ji Wang said helplessly: "Meier, you are almost 15 years old, you have to learn from your eldest sister, this person is in the world, sometimes he really restrains himself." Get angry. You can’t talk about everything, and you can’t let your temper go. I think everyone should not make too much noise about it. Don’t talk about others, let your third aunt know , she has to gossip again."

Ji Xinmei felt that what Mother said was correct, so she promised in a low voice: "Mother, I understand."

Mrs. Ji's guess was indeed correct, and Mrs. Gao dragged Mrs. Yu to their house the next day and ran out of doors.

Mrs. Yu is the sewing master of the sisters. Although the relationship between master and apprentice is not long, the sisters are respectful to Mrs. Yu.Ji Xinmiao secretly sighed at Ji Wang's foresight, and also at Gao's cleverness.

Seeing them coming in, Ji Xinmiao got up quickly: "The two aunts are here? Please sit down quickly."

In order to deal with Gao, Ji's family moved the undried persimmons to the old house last night to dry.So when Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Yu came today, they only saw a lot of persimmons in the yard.

Yu Shi was very happy to see Ji Xinmiao being so enthusiastic, but she didn't know that she was being used by Gao Shi.So she asked carefully: "Miao'er, I didn't come to ask you when you came back last time, are you okay at Qi's house?"

Ji Xinmiao still had a good feeling for Mrs. Yu, and when she heard her question, she immediately said: "Auntie, I'm fine at Qi's house, don't worry. I haven't let go of the sewing skills you taught me, and now I'm doing it myself I can make shoes."

Mrs. Yu was really happy when she heard this: "You are smart, you can learn it as soon as you learn it. It will be a matter of time before you can make clothes and shoes. I heard from your aunt Ergou that you came back this time and picked up a lot of those on the mountain. The persimmons are back, these things are not delicious, what are you doing with them?"

Ji Xinmiao had already had something to say: "Auntie, this food is not delicious, but last time I heard from my second uncle that in some places these persimmons taste delicious after being dried, so I want to try it too." You also know that my family is not very rich, and my brothers and sisters are not very old, just the age of gluttony. Anyway, these things don’t cost money, just need two labors. And my mother won’t let me Going to the ground to help, is this idle or idle? My hands are itchy."

"Hehehe, as an older sister, you really care about your younger siblings. The Meier brothers are really blessed." Yu smiled.

Ji Xinmiao said sincerely: "Auntie, if you can eat it, I will give some to Haizi. But to be honest, I really don't have confidence. I have never made anything before. I just heard that It’s edible, but I haven’t eaten it after all. If my second uncle goes there again next time, I have to ask him to take some back and eat.”

What woman doesn't like caring about her son?Sure enough, Mrs. Yu kept saying yes.After receiving the tea from Ji Xinmei, Mrs. Yu discussed the needle thread with their sisters again. When Mrs. Gao heard that she couldn't find anything, she got up and left angrily.

After both of them left, Ji Xinmei asked, "Sister, do you really have to send the finished product to Haizi?"

Ji Xinmiao smiled: "At that time, we will say that we can't do it well, and the ones that are given to Haizi are the second uncle who sold them from outside."

Ji Xinmei laughed loudly: "Elder Sister's move is brilliant, and the favor was kept a secret without being discovered. If it is done well, our family will go to the mountain to pick it again next year."

Ji Xinmiao nodded her head: "Actually, this matter will definitely be discovered in the future, but this is the way to make persimmons. It's better not to let others know that we have them at home. Besides, those persimmons in our own vegetable garden and on the back hill The tree needs to be built in a year, and the family's pocket expenses for a year will not be a problem."

Ji Xinmei's eyes sparkled: "Sister, from then on, our family will never have to eat vegetables without oil!"

When Ji Wang came in, she was also very happy to hear what the second daughter said. Seeing that the eldest daughter cared so much about her natal family, she couldn't help thinking that the eldest daughter had been back for a few days.So he asked, "Miao'er, Dalang hasn't come back from the mountains yet?"

Ji Xinmiao was taken aback for a moment before he said: "He said it would take a few days to enter the mountain, and if he caught prey, he would have to go to the city to sell it. I don't know if he will come back or not."

Ji Wang thought for a while and said: "After you teach this method to your younger siblings in the past two days, let your elder brother send you back to Shangping Village. This married girl always lives in her mother's house, and she is afraid that the Qi family will gossip."

Ji Xinmiao smiled: "Mother, don't worry, the Qi family's land has been collected, and there is nothing serious at home. When Da Lang went out by himself, he was afraid that I would be alone at home, so he specially asked me to go back to my mother's house. When he comes back from hunting, he will definitely come to pick me up. In two days, the family will also harvest late rice, so he just came to help daddy."

Ji Wang thought about it, and the daughter came back for the second time after marrying into the Qi family for more than a month.She just heard that she waited for her son-in-law to help harvest the late rice season, but Wang refused: "Don't ask him to help, our family is not too busy. There are only three acres of land, there are me and my parents If you don't grab the season, there is no need for him to help."

Ji Xinmiao suddenly remembered the seed suggestion she saw in the shop last time and said, "Mother, after the late rice is harvested, the fields will be empty, right?"

Mrs. Wang Ji nodded: "We will plant some rapeseed on the fatter land, but this land is not fertile, so our family still doesn't plant it. The rapeseed is planted in the vegetable fields opened up on the wasteland on the hills. You What are these asking for?"

Ji Xinmiao told her: "Mother, I have seen some people plant a kind of grass called flower grass in the field after the late rice harvest. They can grow up to a foot long. When they are tender, they can be fried and eaten, and they can also be fed to pigs. When they are old next spring, they will be directly pressed on the bottom of the field as fertilizer."

As soon as her daughter reminded her, Ji Wang's heart became happy: "Really? It would be great if this is the case. This field has been planted with rice for two seasons, and the land is thin. If it can be used as fertilizer, the field will definitely have a bumper harvest next year." .”

Ji Xinmiao asked curiously: "Mother, do you know this flower?"

Ji Wang asked her strangely: "Did you forget what your second uncle said last time?"
