Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 17: Going to the market (1)
Xiao Ting silently wrote down all this. She is not the kind of bad person. If someone treats her kindly, she treats others three times kindly. When others hurt her when she is in trouble, she will pay back ten times in the future.

Seeing the sad look on the cheap mother's face, she urged her to go out, took the seeds by herself, found a big bowl, filled a part of it in, poured some warm water, covered it with the cloth that wiped her head yesterday, and moved it to the yard , placed in the sun to dry.She didn't know if this would work, and she didn't dare to toss all the seeds at once, so she tried a small part first.

After ordering Xiaozhuzi not to touch him, I told grandma to watch, in fact, I was afraid that Xiaozhuzi would forget.Xiao Ting went out with her exclusive small basket and kitchen knife. She wanted to search at the foot of the mountain to see if there were any other things. If not, it would be good to dig some more bamboo shoots.

After all, it won’t break if it’s handled properly. It would be even better if there were mushrooms. Stewed pork ribs with mushrooms and stewed pheasant are quite good.In short, let's get to know the environment first.

Waiting for Xiaoting to go to the place where the pheasants were caught in the morning, pick up the big branches in the morning, and cut grass everywhere. In spring, there are many insects and snakes. Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.At the foot of the mountain, Xiao Ting didn't see what she wanted, so she walked a little bit up the mountain. I don't know if it's because of environmental factors or what. Except for digging some bamboo shoots, I didn't get anything else, and I was scared by a snake once. , Xiao Ting walked back a little lonely.

When I got home, I peeled off the bamboo shoots, sliced ​​them, cooked them for 8 minutes, and dried them in the air.Xiao Ting just thought, when I have money, I can eat meat, buy some meat, dig some leeks to grow at home, use shredded white radish, leeks, dried bamboo shoots with minced meat to fry and make dumplings Eat, how delicious that would be, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

So when I make these things, I work very hard. I never thought about selling these things to make money, but thinking about how to eat them so that they taste better. Making money is a matter for the future. At this stage, I will not let myself and my family Just be hungry.The reason she gave herself was: "He is still young, only 8 years old."

Her current plan is: eat enough at this stage and give herself half a year.In the second stage, make preparations to wear warm clothes and live warmly before winter (this product requires at least a new quilt, no straw sandals, cloth shoes to wear is as simple as that) This is her 9 years old.In the third stage, the house should have a bathroom bigger than the current kitchen, and the wooden barrel can be used for her to take a bath horizontally and vertically. This will be prepared for myself in a year and a half. This is when she is 10-11 years old.The fourth stage, buying fields and getting rid of poor peasants, took one year to prepare. She was 11-12 years old.In the fifth stage, she became a rich peasant and struggled to become a small landlord. This was when she was 12-13 years old.By the way, let's see if there is any plan to develop a husband.The sixth stage, aged 14-16, becomes a big landlord and builds a manor of her own. The things in it can be squandered by her at will, so that she can eat enough without working, dress warmly, live well, and be a happy rice worms. After 16, she married the husband she planned to raise as the daughter of a big landlord.Hahaha... This is all her plan, I don't know if the plan will not keep up with the changes!

So at the moment she is fighting for this year's appetite, and she has to do market research in a few days, there is no time at that time, and her experiment still needs to be watched.The kid in the family is unreliable. Although he is smart, he is still a child, less than 3 years old.

And right now, she was thinking, after the market research was done, she would find a teacher to study with.She doesn't know the current teaching conditions, what dynasty it is, and the environment of this place. She has to figure it out, otherwise she can't do it.

No matter what the end of the study is, there must be one person in the family who can read and write. Xiao Zhuzi, that brat, is still young, and he will be called slowly in the future. It is best for her to learn to read and write under the eyes of everyone.

Fortunately, Xiao Ting’s father was a book fan when she was a child. Although she was poor, she had all kinds of books at home, whether it was Romance of the Three Kingdoms or Water Margin. Completely different from left to right.Thanks to her father, Xiao Ting knows a lot of traditional Chinese characters, but only a few of them are missing.But 90??? are all recognizable.You must know that The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin are all thick books, not to mention any rumors such as the Sui and Tang Dynasties. These books are all written in traditional characters.And it's read vertically, so even if it's traditional characters in this era, she's not afraid, it's just that this guy's calligraphy is terrible.

Tomorrow is the last day of February. My mother said that the day after tomorrow will be the first day of March. My mother plans to plant the millet before the third day of March. My mother said that our family is poor and we can’t even eat enough now.Mother said that she didn't know how father was doing now, and there was no news at all. Mother said she missed him.

Xiao Ting was sitting on the twig, and today she almost forgot to return the bowl to the village chief's cousin.Grandma said that this cousin is actually somewhat related, but not very close.Xiao Ting knew in her heart that in fact, this was a relationship of three thousand miles.Xiao Ting couldn't sleep at night, thinking about everything in this strange world.Sitting in the yard now, looking up at the distant starry sky, the stars are shining, she knows she can't go back.But not reconciled, she wanted to see if there were shooting stars, and she wanted to make a wish.

This family is very bitter, Xiao Ting knows that this family is really good to her, she is a bit reluctant.But she is even more reluctant to part with everything in modern times, such as parents, parents-in-law, husband, friends, classmates, girlfriends and so on.

Niang said that she also wants to improve her living conditions, but her ability is limited, and she is often unable to do what she wants, and she has tried her best.Xiao Ting has been collecting useful information these days. She knows that the road leading to the outside of Chengjiakeng is not good. If you go to the market, instead of taking the main road, take a shortcut (field path) and it will take about an hour and a half to get to the market.If you enter the town, you need to walk for two and a half hours.It takes an hour to go to the market with an ox cart, and an hour and a half to go to the town.Because the place is remote, poor, and backward, it is not known how long the horse-drawn carriage will take.

Xiao Ting wants to realize her dream, she knows that she can only rely on herself.But she is not as omnipotent as written in time travel novels, she knows that everything can only be solved by her own wisdom.In this world, no one should help anyone, so she doesn't expect to meet any nobles like those in those novels. All she can rely on is her wisdom and hands.

Hey... Forget it, let's live with what's in front of us first, and let everything take its course.

The next morning before dawn, "Xiao Hua, get up quickly, we're going to the market." Jing Niang started urging her bed-ridden daughter again, but it really didn't matter to her.

At this time, Xiao Ting's mind was blank. Luckily, she doesn't have the modern waking up spirit, but she is still in the fog at the moment, hugging the warm blanket (the blanket has the smell of the sun that she likes), and she wants to continue sleeping. .
