farm lady

Chapter 172

Hearing Tianwu say that there are suspicious-looking people outside Zhuangzi, Yi Xue's eyelids twitched.She asked in a deep voice, "Did you find anything?"

Tianwu nodded, "I followed one of them, and found that he was just a gangster, and that person was also slippery. When he was discovered, he ran away immediately. I didn't chase after him, thinking that he would definitely come again."

Yi Xue nodded and said appreciatively, "Tianwu, you're getting smarter and smarter. That's great. Keep an eye on them. As long as they don't cause trouble, we'll just turn a blind eye and close our eyes. But we need to find out their intentions. Don’t be careless about Jingzhou”

Tianwu didn't know what Yi Xue meant by losing Jingzhou, but he understood what the eldest lady meant, sniffed, and backed away with a hum.

"Who is it this time? Could it be the Liu family again?" Yi Xue guessed.

Two days later, people from the county came, and Master Wen took Wen Ruonan back.The two fell in love again.

Ten days passed quickly, and the renovation of Xianque Restaurant was halfway through.The newly built house is also half finished.

Seeing that the sky was getting cooler day by day, Yi Xue hurriedly ripened the cotton in the space.In the past half a month, the cotton has matured three times, and nearly eight or nine hundred catties have been collected.Based on the calculation of two catties per person, it is enough to make four to five hundred sets of clothes.

"Mother, these cotton can be used to make clothes," Yi Xue said, pointing to the white cotton.

Mrs. Zhang is used to Yi Xue's tricks, but she was still attracted by the cotton. She picked up the cotton and gently covered her face, "Our family also has cotton clothes to wear, that's great."

"Mother, the mansion is almost full. Let a few maids do the needlework. Before the snow falls, everyone can wear a warm cotton coat," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhang said happily, "That's enough. Cotton clothes are worn underneath, so we don't pay attention to style, but we should pay attention to our cotton clothes."

Yi Xue nodded, then remembered the style of clothes in her previous life, hurriedly got a pen and ink, and began to draw on the blueprint.

High-necked, round-necked, long-waisted, short-waisted...

Yi Xue drew according to her imagination one by one, Zhang looked strange, but to be honest, she also thought it was very beautiful, she kept discussing with Yi Xue, saying that this one should be shorter, that one should be longer, and what color should be used for this one .

In the end, Yi Xue felt that her head was about to explode, so she put down her pen and ink, said with a wry smile, "Mother, you can worry about this", and ran away after speaking.

Mrs. Zhang sighed, this girl is good at everything, but she has no patience for needlework.She frantically rushed to make cotton clothes.

When everyone heard that the owner was going to make cotton padded clothes for everyone in the family, they cried excitedly. In the north, they just wear a few more clothes to avoid the cold in winter. It is simply not the turn of ordinary people to buy, and the price is too high to afford.

But each of the master's family actually has one piece, which is a great thing. No need for Mrs. Zhang to say, these little girls immediately divided the work, cutting and sewing.

For half a month, these newcomers gradually got to know the boss, and suddenly found that they seemed to have come to heaven. The boss here is very generous, and there is no reprimand. As long as you do things seriously and remember the three house rules, then the outsiders at home will be fine. The delicious dishes and meals I have seen, monthly money, and clothes for all seasons will be sent to myself.

Moreover, they have to learn martial arts, cooking, front line and other tasks. They are also tired and do not touch the ground, but they are very down-to-earth.They also quickly felt a sense of belonging to the Zhang family, and they became more energetic, striving to be the first in everything.Especially in reading and writing, I heard that the eldest lady will reward No.1 with a lot of money, so I actively study and work harder.

Of course, Yi Xue didn't care about this either. She was squatting in the ground now, and saw that the green wheat seedlings had all grown up, and they were growing gratifyingly.

She took out "Farmland Chronicle" from the space, this book can be used now, because Yi Xue didn't know what to do next.After reading the information about wheat planting, I knew the things to pay attention to, and then called Tianjia.

"Tianjia, are there any problems for the newcomers who know how to farm?" Yi Xue asked.

Tianjia said respectfully, "Miss, Dizi and other ten people are doing very well, I think they can be used."

In the past few days, Tianjia waited for ten people with Dizi, and asked them to do some rough work, and never let them get close to the core of the house.After these days of observation, Tianjia felt that there was no problem.

Yi Xue nodded, "Choose one out and let him be in charge of the affairs here, but you still have to pay attention. Although I have no doubts about employing people, I don't want problems to arise."

Tianjia naturally understood what Yi Xue meant, this field was the young lady's secret, so naturally he was extremely careful.

"Miss, don't worry, I will definitely watch the prison," Tianjia said solemnly.

After Yi Xue finished explaining, she returned to the greenhouse, and Lao Zhangtou hurried out, saying in surprise, "Miss, all the vegetables have sprouted."

Surprised, Yi Xue ran in and saw different green seedlings popping up on the ground. She was immediately in a good mood, "Master Zhang, every day, uh..." At this point, Yi Xue had some questions.

The old Zhangtou didn't know what Yi Xue said, he thought he didn't take good care of him, his legs gave way in fright, and he said, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that the old man was nervous, Yi Xue said quickly, "It's not your business, I want you to record the situation during the period when the vegetables grow into fruits, and write them down in notes, but you can't write yet, so I'm worried"

In the whole family, only Lao Zhangtou didn't learn to read and write, because he was old, his eyesight was not good, and his energy was low, so Yi Xue didn't force it.

When Lao Zhangtou heard this, he immediately became anxious. If the eldest lady asked someone who could write, wouldn't he be able to take care of the greenhouse?Will the young lady be angry with herself?
He was in a hurry, and hurriedly said, "Miss, Yun'er can write"

Yi Xue froze for a moment, then smiled wryly in her heart, Yun'er learned too few characters, and the child was young, so it was impossible for her to do such heavy work.

"Uncle Zhang, Xiao Yun is too young," Yi Xue said with a smile.

As if someone was going to steal his job, the old Zhangtou pulled Yi Xue and said, "Miss, I can do it, Xiao Yun can do it, let's take our time."

Seeing the pleading eyes of old Zhangtou, Yi Xue reluctantly agreed, let's try it first, and change it if it doesn't work.

Old Zhang was so excited that he wanted to kowtow, but Yi Xue stopped him, "Uncle Zhang, from now on, there will be a rule in the family that no one is allowed to kowtow, start from Qiushui, and tell the servants."

Qiu Shui was even more excited when he heard that there was no need to kowtow in the future. It was a kind of respect. The master no longer regarded them as slaves. Although their status had not changed, their hearts had changed.

"I would like to thank Miss on behalf of everyone," Qiu Shui cried.

"Okay, what a grown-up, even older than me, if you still cry, you'll go to the greenhouse if you cry again," Yi Xue scolded with a smile.

Qiu Shui snuffed his nose, not daring to cry any more, and smiled instead.

After coming out of the greenhouse, Yi Xue went to the pigsty again, the piglets had gained a lot of weight, and the old Zhangtou also looked good.When she arrived at the chicken pen, Yi Xue frowned a little. There were too many chickens in the chicken pen, there were two to seven hundred chickens, and the villagers had adopted quite a few, but the chicken pen was still small.

The family was still hatching chicks, so Yi Xue decisively stopped the work of hatching chicks.It seems that a larger pen will be built, and the chicken pen and pig pen will be made into a large farm. In the future, there will be a sheep pen, and the sheep in the space can be brought out.

Chicken manure and pig manure can also be used as fertilizer in the field in the future, and the bran produced by wheat can be used to feed pigs and chickens.During this period of time, there is not much bran sifted out from flour milling, and the pigs can only be fed every few days.However, it is obvious that the coat color and spirit of the bran-fed pigs are much better.

Yi Xue went to the carbon field again, and saw that everyone was working in full swing. Not far from the carbon field, five small houses were built, which were very delicate.Zhang Xian is really dedicated, as long as it is made by him, no matter the size or purpose, it must be beautiful and practical.

"Miss is here," the yamen servant came up to meet her.

These days, the yamen servants did not expect that the original drudgery would be very pleasant. The daily meals are provided by the Zhang family, and they are full and comfortable.Secondly, after careful observation during this period, I found that Yixue's family was a veritable rich family, and even the village head respected Zhang's family when they mentioned it.The villagers working below are even more grateful to the Zhang family.

No wonder the county master said, let yourself take care of the carbon field, and don't have any trouble with the Zhang family.

"Miss", suddenly, everyone in the carbon field yelled, calling Yi Xue too high-status again.

Yi Xue smiled slightly. The reason why these people called her that was because the charcoal hadn't produced any profit during this period, and the wages were paid by Yi Xue in advance. In other words, Yi Xue is now their food and clothing parents, and no one dares to offend them. she.

The charcoal produced in the past ten days has been pulled down by the county government and piled up in the county government.Because no one understands the value and usage of carbon charcoal, Mr. Wen intends to take some as experimental products, and let the people in the county government take some back for use first. Who doesn't have some relatives to know, and the people spread the word the fastest.

Of course, this Yi Xue also trusts Mrs. Wen, since there are production records here anyway, she won't be afraid of any personal gain from the county government.

"Let go of me, let go of me, you bastard, you bastard," suddenly someone yelled.

Yi Xue searched for the sound, and saw a man pulling a woman vigorously, looking carefully, it was Xue Shi, Xiao Niuzi's mother.

"You're useless, you can't even handle this shit, and you need my old lady to come forward, have you done anything wrong, I'm afraid that the government will do something to you", Xue shook off Wang Tiezhu's hand fiercely.

Wang Tiezhu's face was embarrassed, but he didn't dare to yell loudly, and shouted in a low voice, "Why do you have so many things, it's not that I'm less paid."

Xue's eyes widened, and she pointed at Wang Tiezhu's nose, "As cowardly as you are, if the wages are reduced, I can still let you do this? They are not fair, why don't you let me say it?"

Mrs. Xue said resolutely, and then walked towards the construction site.

Yi Xue was curious, wondering which song this Xue family sang, and then looked at the yamen servant.

The yamen servant shook his head, expressing that he didn't know, so Yi Xue could only ask Tianjia, "What's going on?"

Tianjia had been settling accounts just now, and didn't find his boss coming, so he was startled, and hurriedly apologized to him, but was stopped by Yi Xue, "What's the matter with them?"
