Splendid Pastoral: Space farmers are good for farming

Chapter 57
Seeing his daughter looking at him, Qiao Mantun lowered his head again in shame. If his daughter sold it, he would sell it, and he would never see him again. The daughter is worried, how will she look up in front of her in the future?

Fang's eyes were also a little unnatural when she saw Bellflower, but she was naturally thick-skinned, thinking that she was her "mother" now, and her daughters were all mothers, and she could sell and marry if she wanted to, it was only right and proper.So she didn't take it seriously again, and said with a sullen face, "If you don't feed the sheep, the lambs will starve to death!"

Kikyo stood there squinting at her, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, 'mother', you made a mistake, I am not from Qiao's family anymore, I have been bought by Yao Jinfang, I am Yao's family, why should I feed you sheep? !"

After speaking, he pulled up the peppercorns, turned around and left.

Grandma Qiao and Fennel in the hut, and Shan Xing who came back with Platycodon grandiflorum and stood in the kitchen are all clear about what happened in the main room. Fennel also came out with malt.

Grandma Qiao squatted on the ground and took her little hand, and asked, "San'er, where are you going? Although your parents have done too much, this is still your home, and the Yao family didn't say they want you to go there. Is there any place to stay?"

Seeing that there were still tears on Grandma's face, Jujiao said, "Don't worry about me, Grandma, I won't live on the street."

After speaking, he pulled the pepper and continued to walk out.

Qiao Mantun watched from the room, and shouted helplessly, "Jiangyou, what are you doing?"

Bellflower didn't look back, and walked out of the yard with Zanthoxylum to the east.

Huajiao stopped crying at this time, and until now she didn't understand why the third sister took her away from home. Didn't the person who bought her have already left? What are you going to do?
As she walked, she asked, "Third Sister, where are we going? Are we not going home?"

Kikyo turned to stare at her, and said, "Would you like to go back to that home?!"

Huajiao was so stared at by her that she didn't dare to look up, and muttered softly, "But, but where can we go if we don't go back?"

Kikyo said angrily: "Follow me, I will give you a home, the home that wants to sell us is no longer a home!"

As he spoke, he led Zanthoxylum bungeanum into Aunt Zhang's yard.

As soon as the orange terrier left, Aunt Zhang heard the news that Qiao Mandun was going to sell the orange terrier. She felt that it was a pity for the orange terrier. She didn't expect such a sensible child to be sold, so she kept watching in the yard, but Looking around, she saw Steward Li and the Yao family's mother and son going in and out, but in the end they didn't see Bellflower and Zanthoxylum bungeanum being taken away. She guessed that the sale of the child was a failure, so she felt a little more at ease and continued to go into the house to tidy up. something went.

Seeing Jigeng and Zanthoxylum came in, she asked strangely: "Jigeng, you...why are you here?"

Kikyo said: "Aunt Zhang, we are here to buy your house and fields, can you sell them to us?"

Aunt Zhang was dumbfounded for a while, her mouth was wide open, and it took a long time before she said: "Jiangyou, I know about your affairs, but my aunt really can't help you, you can give me some food and drink, but the house and land are also provided by my aunt and uncle." I can't just give you the stuff I've saved up for a lifetime!"

Kikyo said: "Ma'am, you misunderstood. We don't want it for nothing. We buy it. Although we don't have money, we have grain. I've done the math. A catty of millet costs five cents, and a bag of millet costs eight hundred cents. It costs 50 cents." Two silver taels of millet are 66 bags of millet, if I give my aunt 67 bags of millet, can she sell me the house and the fields?"

Aunt Zhang's eyes widened, she reached out to touch the forehead of the orange terrier, and said: "You girl, you have a fever and are talking nonsense, where are you going to get me 67 bags of millet? I don't know if I don't have that little field in your house." You know, even if all the millet is planted, it is impossible to produce 67 bags!"

Kikyo raised her hand to hold her hand, and said half coquettishly: "Ms. Zhang, I'm not talking nonsense. I really have 66 bags of millet, but no one else knows it. Please sell me the house and the fields, you guys The house and fields are sold to anyone, so what if they are sold to us!"

Aunt Zhang still couldn't believe it, but she couldn't bear to reject the platycodon, and said: "It seems that you are really pitiful, how about it, if you can really come up with 34 bags of millet, and your father and mother agree, I will give it to you." I can sell the house and fields to you, but if I can’t, or if it’s just what you children want, if your parents don’t agree, I can’t sell them to you either.”

Ji Jiao said: "My millet belongs to me and has nothing to do with my parents. Besides, I am no longer from Qiao's family, so they have no right to ask."

Aunt Zhang said dubiously: "Well, as long as you take out the millet, this house is yours now."

Ji Jiao said: "Okay, okay, I have plenty of millet, where does the aunt want me to put the millet?"

"More than 30 bags of millet, you can put it where you can say as a child?" Aunt Zhang took her into the warehouse while doubting, and said, "If you can transport it, you can put it here , we’ll move the house and take it away together, and sell it in the town.”

Kikyo nodded, and said: "Okay, that's here, I'll find a way to transport it over, and tomorrow morning the aunt just waits to harvest the millet."

Aunt Zhang only thought it was a joke with the child, and said: "Well, all right, I will go into the house and continue to tidy up. I will vacate a house for you when your grain is all ready."

After she finished speaking, she went into the house.

Huajiao stood on the warehouse floor, stared blankly at Platycodon grandiflorum, and asked, "Sister San, do we really want to buy Zhang's house? But we don't have millet!"

Kikyo gave her a white look and said, "How do you know if you don't? Wait here and help me with my work tonight. Tomorrow this house will be ours."

After speaking, she quickly ran out of Zhang's house and came to Yao Jinfang's house again.

Widow Yao dragged Yao Jinfang home, twisted and kicked him, then went out to play Pai Gow again without cooking.

Yao Jinfang, who had swollen cheeks, was squatting in front of the stove and lighting a fire when Kikyo came, trying to get some porridge to drink.

Ji Jiao first said very regretfully: "I'm sorry, Jin Fang, I caused you to be beaten by your mother again."

Yao Jinfang smiled quickly and said, "It's okay, as long as you are not sold, it's nothing for me to suffer from this."

Kikyo smiled apologetically, and said, "Since you're not angry, can you do me a favor? I want to buy more food for Zhang's house, but I can't do it myself."

Yao Jinfang said happily: "You want to buy a house by yourself? It's great, so that annoying stepmother won't get your idea! What do you want me to do? Go, let's go now!"

As he spoke, he extinguished the half-burned fire in the stove, and ran towards Zhang's house together with Kikyo.
