Chapter 54
The grandmother nodded Xie Wenjing's smooth forehead.

"I know, I know, when we live there, I will bring tribute and go to Fajing Temple to pay respect to the Buddha!"

Xie Wenjing smiled and put her arms around her grandmother's arm.He agreed as if begging for mercy.

The eldest uncle, the eldest aunt, and the others were coaxed by the niece to agree when they saw their parents, so they could only let the niece go.Fortunately, it is close to my home, so I can visit them from time to time, so it is not so sad.

"Wen Jing, you bought a hundred acres of land, beans, and rice seeds. Do you really want to farm?"

The second aunt looked unbelievable. This niece Wen Jing is the eldest daughter of the Xie family in Yangzhou. Can she farm?

"Second aunt, farming is good!" Xie Wenjing replied enthusiastically.Farming in this life, simple and leisurely, should be very pleasant, right?

"Okay, not bad, not afraid of tanning yourself? Not afraid of tiring you?" Second Aunt asked again.

"Don't be afraid, the villagers in that village are very honest. We pay a little wages, and they can help us plant it. To be honest, it's not our own farming, but just enjoying the leisurely life in the countryside."

Xie Wenjing smiled and explained clearly so that her grandmother would not be anxious.

After Xie Wenjing's explanation, the Du family felt relieved.

The third uncle and the third aunt were very happy. This time the problem was finally solved. There was no need to bother the Du family, and it was also possible to avoid direct conflict with the stepmother.What can I still say to Wen Jing, enjoy a leisurely pastoral time.

However, I must take the exam this time, the two-year filial piety period has already expired.

I have stayed on the fame of a scholar for more than ten years, and even my elder brother who is sick has to work hard, so why can't I work hard.

In the past, she thought she had the Xie family to rely on, but now she realizes that the Xie family is only the Xie family of the stepmother, and the Xie family of the second brother, not the Xie family of herself and her elder brother.

If you want to truly escape from the poison of Xie's stepmother, you can only support your family by standing up straight.

What Xie Wenjing didn't expect was that after she exposed Xie's grandmother's vicious heart, both the third uncle and her father were motivated to forge ahead. Although Xie Wenjing's father actually liked calligraphy and painting, Xie Chengyu was willing to rely on for the family to rely on. Abandon liking and take responsibility.

In the past few days, the third uncle and the third aunt accompanied Xie Wenjing back and forth between the Du family and the Li Family Ancestral Hall.

The courtyard of the Li Family Ancestral Hall has been renovated by the villagers, and the [-]-acre paddy field, which was originally almost barren of wheat, has long since become ashes in the field.

The soybean seeds were sowed with the help of the villagers, and the whole four thousand catties of beans, the villagers couldn't help but feel excited.

There was extreme confidence in the young lady's eyes, and the villagers couldn't help discussing with each other to calculate the small accounts.See if you want to follow suit.

"Father, otherwise, we should also plant some soybeans. I think we can't harvest a hundred catties of wheat even if we wait for two months. Our family has 14000 acres of land. If we plant soybeans instead , Wait for two months, if the harvest is good, you can harvest 14 catties of beans, and you can earn [-] taels of silver for a penny per catty, which is much better than waiting for nothing.”

Aunt Li from Uncle Li's house next door to Xie Wenjing was already moved.The key point is that the wheat fields will not produce much wheat if they wait any longer. Why don't they just burn it and plant soybeans like Miss Xie Jia, and earn as much as they can.

Besides, in the past few days, Miss Xie's family asked the village to help repair the house, grow soybeans, and gave some money. The village head gave each family a tael of silver, even if it was used as capital, it would not be considered a loss!

"It's just a pity, there are still two months to see a little harvest, so just burn it?"

The man said regretfully, with his head downcast and lack of energy.

"Then let's burn it. Burn it early and plant it early, so as not to affect the next season's rice, so as not to lose more."

Aunt Li made a final decision.

The brothers and sisters-in-law who were discussing together couldn't help but feel moved when they saw the sister-in-law's swiftness. After thinking about it, I still followed suit. Those wheat can be harvested for hundreds of catties. , It is better to burn it.

The four brothers of Uncle Li's family next door to Xie Wenjing worked together to burn down their [-] mu of wheat land and planted soybeans instead.

As a result, other people in the village were moved. Within a few days, the nearly [-] mu of paddy fields in the Li Clan Ancestral Hall were all planted with soybeans.

The villagers in the next few villages thought they were crazy.Now it's time for the wheat harvest. Even if there is a disaster, there are still some rations. Can soybeans be used as rations?That's what horses eat!

When there is really no food, food can be more expensive than gold!Can soybeans be compared to grain?stupid!

Just when Xie Wenjing took people to tidy up the new home, and when the new home was tidied up, they could move in, the Zhao family in Yangzhou happened to have a banquet for the daughter of the Yangzhou family to enjoy the flowers.

The second madam was very proud. After the old madam took the power of managing the house by herself, she never thought of taking it back.

She is shameless, but the master is still shameless. Although the scoundrel who mistook the old lady was forced to kneel at the gate of Xie's house to confess, but there are still many people who questioned the old lady's past behind her back?
Besides, the master said to let her recuperate in the back house and let him be in charge of the family, so naturally he came forward to make friends with these aristocratic families.

In this way, I can carefully select a good husband's family for my daughter. Not only the son-in-law has a reputation, but also a solid family background, a good reputation, and a good-looking one.

"Mom, I'm going to Zhao's house to enjoy the flowers today, but Wen Jing is not here. If the mother of the Zhao family asks, how can I answer?"

When the second lady greeted the old lady in the morning, she asked for advice very obediently.

"Just tell them the truth, that child is full of filial piety, and accompanied his seriously ill father to Hangzhou Fajing Temple to pray for blessings. When he went, he took Ye Zhu with him to be Wen Wan and Wen Qian's companions. Let the child see the world."

"Yes, the wife knows. The daughter-in-law will definitely take good care of the child Ye Zhu. However, Wen Qian's child was unwell due to the cold today. I asked her to rest at home. I took Ye Zhu and Wen Wan to Zhao's house to appreciate spend it!"

The second lady replied obediently, but she hummed in her heart.

Xie Wenqian, the daughter of that concubine, deserves to go out with her?It's not the daughter who grew up by my side, no matter how good she is, it's just raising a white-eyed wolf.

The old lady's heart is like a bright mirror, Wen Qian happened to catch a cold today?snort!It's just relying on your status as a mother to bully the concubine next to your second child.

Forget it, it's not a big deal, as long as Ye Zhu can go to Zhao's house, that's enough. Ye Zhu is a very smart child, if she goes to Zhao's house, she will naturally please Mrs. Zhao.

But when she thought that Xie Chengyu went to Hangzhou alone, the old lady felt very uncomfortable.
