Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 158 The Housekeeper

Even though such a small account is a piece of cake for Li Mingyue, she didn't shirk it, put the silver in front of her, and said with a smile: "Okay, I will be the housekeeper. What's the big deal for you in the future?" , For small things, if you want to use money, come to me to apply, wait for me to find a small book to record the family's accounts."

The daughter is in charge of the house, but Li Shou feels much more secure in his heart. He chuckled and said, "Yue'er, dad wants to pay for some money to buy wheat seeds, so he can quickly plant the three acres of dry land in these few days."

Mrs. Liu went on to say: "Our pigsty and chicken coop are empty. I want to raise two piglets and a litter of hens. I will lay eggs and use them to nourish your brothers and sisters."

Li Minglan thought for a while, and then said: "I want to buy some silk thread. When I have free time, I can do some needlework and sell it. It can also supplement the family."

Parents and sisters all talked about what they wanted to buy. The two little girls, Li Mingxiang and Li Mingxiu, seemed to understand what they heard, but they only knew that they wanted to buy something. Li Mingqing, who was eating fingers in Mrs. Liu's arms, said: "I want to buy candied haws! Coax my brother when he is not good!"

Li Mingxiu also blurted out, "I want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus cake!..."

But what is this thing for?The younger brother has been coaxed by the elder sister's candied haws. Li Mingxiu held his little head and thought for a while, then rolled his eyes, and said crisply: "Coax me when I'm not good!"

The childish words made the whole family burst into laughter. Li Mingyue rubbed Mingxiu's little head fondly, and said with a smile, "Okay, buy them all."

Li Mingyue thought for a while, and gave Liu shi five taels of silver, "Mother, there is a market in the town the day after tomorrow, if you need anything at home, you can buy it, don't be reluctant to spend the money.

Aunt Luo is going to give birth in a few days, and I will live in her house from tomorrow, so it is convenient to take care of her.If there is anything at home, you can let my brother come to me on horseback. "

For the lady of the Luo family, Mrs. Liu is grateful from the bottom of her heart. If it weren't for her family's help, Li Mingyue wouldn't be able to earn so much money back.Hearing that she was about to give birth, Mrs. Liu slapped her thigh and said, "How could I forget this! Tomorrow I have to go to the village to buy some eggs for your Aunt Luo to eat during confinement. But you are a girl, Can it work? Having a baby is no joke, or I'll go."

Li Mingyue waved his hands and said: "Our family just moved here, there are a lot of things waiting for you to worry about at home, can you go away?

Don't worry about Aunt Luo, there is a midwife for giving birth. I just take care of Aunt Luo's daily life and help with cooking. I have taken care of Xiang'er, Xiu'er, and Qing'er. "

In fact, according to Luo Fuzi, he wanted to invite an experienced woman to go back to take care of Aunt Luo's childbirth and confinement. I found a few in the village, either they didn't fit Aunt Luo's eyes, or they were too sloppy. If it's not suitable... In the end, I can only trouble Li Mingyue.

The family chatted for a while, until Li Mingqing yawned sleepily, the family meeting just ended, and the little housekeeper Li Mingyue returned to the east chamber with the money box in her arms.

There are three rooms in the new home, so the living space is naturally spacious.The girls Li Minglan and Li Mingyue live in the East Wing, Li Shou and his wife live in the main house, and Li Mingzhi lives in the West Wing.

Li Mingyue originally wanted to find a place in the house to hide the money box, but the house was bare, and there was nothing else in the house except a kang... It seems that the house has to buy a big locker.

Based on the principle that eggs should not be put in the same basket, Li Mingyue went to the kitchen and found a small crock, and divided the money into two parts.One copy was put in a box, locked with a small lock, and placed under the quilt.The other was packed in an earthen jar and buried in a pit dug behind my house.
