Chapter 145 Just Take Me

The old man Xiao knew what kind of virtue she was, so he didn't want to pay attention to her at all. He glanced at her and replied casually, "It's not a few acres."

In a village, even if he didn't like Mrs. Ma, the old man Xiao still opened his mouth, but after he finished speaking, he walked straight forward.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ma didn't stop her. Watching Li Mujin and the others leave, Mrs. Ma gave a sip in the direction of their departure before giving up.

With the addition of Xiao Jingyu and Li Mufan, their speed was much faster, and the seven of them pulled up a full four mu of land from the beginning of the hour to the end of the unitary hour ([-]:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m.).

Including more than an acre in the morning, they have already completed half of the task.

Of course, this is also because there is less grass in the field now, and the soil is soft after it rains.Otherwise, seven people would not be able to reach such a progress.

The sky is dry and the land is dry, and weeds are overgrown, and it will be difficult to pull weeds at that time.However, as the wheat grows bigger, there will be fewer and fewer weeds in the field, which will save people a lot of worry.

But remembering that when planting corn in autumn, he had to pick up a hoe to weed the cornfield, Li Mujin frowned, helpless.I thought to myself, it is better to earn money quickly, so that I don’t have to work hard to earn this little money.

After spending more than two days, seven people finally pulled out the grass in the field.The old man Xiao notified the manager in charge of the matter in the Qiao Mansion, and the manager came over to check it, nodded, made a note in the notepad, and let them go.

In the past two days, Yu Shi and Xiao Hui have not been idle at home, and she has weaved half of the straw mats for the roof by herself.

Today is the sixth day, she went to Datunji together with Xiao Jingliang early in the morning, and Li Mujin and others came back from the field in the middle of the morning.When you come back, wash your feet with hot water.A group of people started weaving straw mats, but Xiao Jingyu told Li Mujin to go out.

Mrs Yu came back after noon, business was better today, she sold four straw baskets, and she still carried six straw baskets on her back.The straw basket is not heavy, and the six together are not too heavy, but she is old after all.

When she arrived at the door, she was leaning on a wooden stick she had picked up from nowhere, sweating profusely and panting heavily.Seeing this scene, old man Xiao was the first to go up to him.

"Mother, don't sell this straw basket in the future. You won't earn a lot of money in a year, and your body will be exhausted."

I don't know if it was ten years ago or five years ago, old man Xiao has been persuading Mrs. Yu not to sell straw baskets.Every time this topic is brought up, Mrs. Yu will take a deep look at the old man Xiao, and say, "I'm still active, and I can work for a few more years. Besides, if I don't sell straw baskets, I'll be idle at home, don't you?" I feel suffocated, and I feel suffocated.”

Her embroidery work is not bad, but at any rate she is old, and it takes a long time to thread a needle.Now it's okay to sew clothes and make shoes, but let her embroider, that's not enough.

"Don't worry, I won't do it when I can't do it anymore."

Not giving the old man Xiao a chance to refute, Yu waved his hand, not caring.Old man Xiao was so angry that he could only sigh, there was nothing he could do with her.

At this time, Li Mujin was sitting under the eaves, glanced at Mrs. Yu, and interjected: "Grandma, or if you go to the market in the future, you can take me with you, and I will go with you."

She wanted to go to the market, so she bought two catties of white flour and came back, planning to make some simple food and sell it at the market.She has low ability now and has no skills, so she has to start a small business.
