Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 79 The Restless Wang Family Picking Bayberry (5)
The land behind the house has been plowed out, and Xiaohua soaked all the seeds in water to germinate, and was buried in the soil.It's just that some of the sweet potatoes in the yard had grown, but they were scattered, and the little flowers were so heart-wrenching. After digging up the ones that didn't grow, I found that they were all rotten.

Xiao Hua felt that she was really not good enough for farming.But she would not be reconciled if she didn't make a fuss on her own.Even if it's sparse, Xiaohua comforted herself, it's okay, this is the first time.And it's good to grow out.The face of the yard is so big, and it can grow at a distance of 20-30 cm. It will be much better after the fruit is produced, and more can be planted in the coming year, right?Although it is not as good as expected, but after planting those few big sweet potatoes, at least there are more than a few.For the sweet potato vines growing in the yard, Xiaohua asked her mother to cut them and pick them on other grounds. When she was a child, she had seen her grandma do the same thing. Not knowing whether it would work or not, Xiaohua did the same.

"Well, I know, let's go now. Your grandpa also likes to drink. Go the day after tomorrow to make your grandpa and grandpa happy. I haven't seen them for many years, and I don't know how they are." Jing Niang said happily Yes, but the eye sockets are slightly red.

"Wow, mother, it's all red, hurry up and pick a few for me to taste." Xiaohua gasped when she saw the bayberry, and looked at the bayberry hanging on the branches, some were bright red, some were black red Yes, and not too small, Xiao Hua couldn't wait to yell.

Seeing Jing Niang put down the basket first, Xiao Hua became anxious. "Mother, you stay here, I'll pick it, you pick it." After finishing speaking, before Jingniang agreed, she climbed the bayberry tree by herself. If anyone didn't know, they would think it was a monkey, with such neat hands and feet, how could it be? Like a girl.

This guy went up the tree first, picked a black and red bayberry by himself, closed his eyes and tasted it, that look, that intoxication.The Yang Meigang was put into the mouth, and the moment it was bitten off, this guy's eyes lit up: "Mother, it's so sweet, you can taste it quickly." After that, another branch that was hanging slowly was passed to Jingniang directly.

Jingniang saw that Xiaohua was going to eat it directly, so she took one off and put it in her mouth, and she was as surprised as Xiaohua: "Xiaohua, mother has never eaten such a sweet fruit. It's sour, but it's not really counted. It's still very juicy. It's so delicious, if you sell this, someone will definitely sell it."

"Mom, do you think it's right for someone to sell it? Then let's pick more. If the well can be repaired in one day, we can hang it in the well with a basket and it won't break. If it doesn't work, let's pickle the dried bayberry, and the remaining Take some to grandma and grandpa's house, let them help brew wine, do you think it's okay? If shopkeeper Liu sells it tomorrow, mother, how much do you think is suitable?" Xiaohua is now thinking about how to make more money.

In the past, when I had no money, I felt that I could earn 1 tael, but when I earned 10 tael, I wanted 10 taels, and when I could earn 100 taels, I wanted to earn [-] taels.And I always feel that the money is useless, and if I don’t do anything, it will be gone.

After thinking about it, Xiaohua sighed softly. When she went to work, she thought that she could earn [-] a month, and when she was [-], she would ask for [-]. Later, when she could earn [-], she thought Fifteen thousand or twenty thousand.Thinking about it, she suddenly felt that she was so greedy. She had always felt that she was very content. Now thinking about it, she was just like everyone else, very greedy, always wanting more and better.But she felt that she just wanted to improve the current situation, and there was nothing wrong with it.

But in the entire Chengjiakeng, looking around, there are really few farms that can compare with theirs.Now there are 6 mu of paddy fields and 22 mu of dry land, all of which are worthless money.Although her family is still famous in the Chengjiakeng, who in the entire Chengjiakeng doesn't know that Cheng Xiaohua's family is rich, has a lot of fields, and has business dealings with restaurants in the town?
If you want to say who is most grateful to Xiaohua's family in Chengjiakeng, Wang Changgui's family is the first to bear the brunt. Over the past two months, their family has earned more than four taels of silver. You can still do it this year. They sold Xiaohua for only 3 catties these days, but they collected more than 200 catties, and there are still a lot. Xiaohua only gives 2000 catties a month, and the rest will be fully exposed until August and September. It will be sold later, and the price will be raised at that time, which is another unnecessary income.In this way, adding up all the time, it may exceed 50 taels a year, which they dare not even think about.

The second is Cheng Wenqiang, the village head. Xiaohua collects bamboo shoots in the village and hires villagers to work on her land. This undoubtedly earns money for the villagers, which makes the life of the villagers much easier, and they don't have to go out to work.In the end, it was Chengjiakeng who sold bamboo shoots to Xiaohua's family, and another Wu family led the three of them.During this period of time, their family has made a lot of money, which was unimaginable in previous years.Of course, there are those who hate Xiaohua's family, headed by the Zhou family and the Wang family.

Although Xiaohua knows what her family is like in the eyes of the Cheng family, she is not satisfied. It is still a word: "poor", which is far from a big landlord. Let alone a manor, she will be the owner of the manor up.

Therefore, Xiao Hua eagerly asked Jing Niang how much the price was suitable. In fact, she thought in her heart that red bayberry costs 20 Wen per catty. If you buy it for the rich, you can sell it for the poor and try it out.Dried red bayberry will be sold for 50 cents a catty when she tosses it out.Thinking that these are all money, Xiao Hua couldn't help but roll her eyes.Not to mention bayberry wine, if it tastes good by then, she is ready to find a chance to make a lot of money.

"Xiaohua, mother thinks this thing is quite rare, how about 10 Wen per catty?" In Jingniang's mind, 10 Wen is already an extraordinary price.

"Mom, let's pick it first. We're discussing later. I want 20 Wen. But pick the bayberry first, and I'll pick the ripe ones first. Mom, you can pick it up. By the way, mom, go and fold some branches and lay them on the bottom." , so that if I throw it on the ground, it won’t break or get dirty easily.”

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Looking at the red bayberry trees, Xiao Hua's eyes narrowed into a line, she was secretly happy.Xiaohua plans to pick all the red bayberries from this big tree today, and then ask Uncle Wang to find someone to dig up the whole tree and plant it in the field behind her house.

Jing Niang spread branches all around the bayberry tree, followed by climbing up the tree, and threw it on the ground when it was broken.The couple spent an hour and a half together.It was already noon at this time, Xiaohua looked up at the bayberry tree, it was so pitiful, it was broken in sevens and eights, it was ugly to death, and I don't know if this will affect the coming year.

Then she thought that there should be no problem, she only broke off a little branch near the bayberry.Looking at my mother again, she is similar to her, so I feel relieved.

"Mother, look at so many, we can't take them back, and the bag is not enough, at least 5 big bags are needed. Mother, why don't you go back and get the bags, and call Uncle Wang and Brother Ronghua to help. Put these into the bag first, mother, you can also take a look at how the well is being dug in our house, I think there are five or six people coming in the morning, so it should be faster."
