Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 147 Strikes the Autumn Wind

Chapter 147 The Autumn Wind (Part [-])
This is why she has been struggling to farm and raise Shuan Shuan by herself for so many years.No matter how hard it was, Trini asked for help, but she refused to accept it.

Now, her life is better, and her children and grandchildren are back.Everyone in the village got rich and lived a good life because of her god-granddaughter, and whoever saw her couldn't help calling "Aunt Four" enthusiastically, especially the birthday banquet two months ago, which made her straighten up completely She, Li Tang, is no longer a poor old widow who would sigh three times when anyone mentions it.

Now Tang Laosan's sweet potatoes are given by Tang Cuini, and Tang Cuini's sweet potatoes are given by her granddaughter, but my two brothers are going to Tang Laosan's house to beg...

The old lady didn't like this. After pondering for a while, she finally looked at Mu Ai with a little guilt.

Mu Ai actually admires Tang Cai's shrewdness, who knows how to play the emotional card, not to mention that the old lady is their own sister, even an outsider like herself will be moved. Of course, the prerequisite is that she doesn't know the details.

She could clearly hear Grandma Li's gossip with the old lady last year. The two brothers definitely didn't feel ashamed to meet their sister because of poverty. They were actually afraid of being dragged down by the old lady.It's just that Tang Fa still has some conscience, but Tang Cai has the same pronunciation as his name, "greedy for money".

However, the old lady has already been persuaded here, and it seems that she can only think of a way.

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly, took a snack for the old lady, and said, "Grandma, there were too many seeds planted in the village last year, and all the seeds from Xianxian's place were taken out. Originally, if uncle and grandpa came a few days earlier Well, let’s go to the folks to borrow some. But it’s already this time, and I’m afraid every household has been bought up.”

Mu Ai’s words are true. At that time, one kind of land in the village was five acres, and only sweet potato seedlings were pulled out for several carts. These old ladies had seen it at the time, and they knew that there were no sweet potatoes in her few acres of fields last year, so, I don't doubt that she is trying to shirk.I had no choice but to nod, sighed, and thought about how much money I still had in my hand, and when the two brothers left, I would give them ten taels, at least to make life easier for a year.

When Tang Cai heard that there were no seeds in the muai, his face sank, and he lost the miserable look just now. He snorted, "Elder sister, these days I always tell my elder brother that you are a filial granddaughter. Looking at it now Look, it’s just that, my family didn’t plant it yet, so I gave it to outsiders first.”

The old lady didn't expect her brother to turn his face suddenly when he heard that there were no seeds here in Xianxian, and his heart immediately cooled down as if a ladle of deep well water had been poured on him.It turns out that those words just now and the closeness these days are all fake.She opened her mouth to say something, but in the end she only spit out a few words, "Forget it, you guys go back, and don't come here again."

Tang Fa saw that the eldest sister was annoyed, so he stood up quickly, rubbed his calloused hands, but couldn't say anything in a hurry.Tang Cai was not so easy to deal with. He stood up angrily and was about to say ha when he was interrupted by Mu Ai.

"Grandma and uncles are really brothers and sisters. They are all so irritable. Xianxian only said that I don't have any sweet potatoes here and in the village, but I can't get them without saying anything."

Mu Ai smiled to appease the old lady, then ignored the embarrassed Tang Fa Tangcai, and continued, "Grandma, my foster brother also planted some last year, but I heard a few days ago that he sold them to the city Those big families are gone. But, I guess, he uses some for cooking in that restaurant every day, and he must have kept some. How about it, I will send someone to ask, and let Yixiong move out a cart Come on, how about selling it to the two uncles at half price?"

The old lady was a little chilled just now, but now she heard her granddaughter said that there is a way, she didn't feel happy, but just felt relieved, wishing they would take the seeds and go back immediately, out of sight and out of mind.Immediately nodded, said, "This method is good, but you have worked so hard, just don't know if they appreciate it or not?"

Tang Cai had put on a smiling face at this time, and immediately received, "Elder sister, I am angry with my younger brother. My younger brother has a quick temper since he was a child, and always fights with others. Isn't it because the older sister is hiding it from my parents for me. The younger brother just now Thinking of the family's child getting engaged, the house is still leaking and has not been repaired, and I want to earn some money earlier. Don't be as knowledgeable as the younger brother, the elder brother and I know that the elder sister misses me and the elder brother in her heart."

The old lady's face softened a little, and she said, "I don't listen to what you say. You have been able to talk since you were a child. This time, the fairy will help you buy seeds. You should plant them well, and you can live a good life in autumn."

Tang Cai laughed dryly, "Hey, big sister taught me a lesson. My big brother and I must work hard. But, big sister, this money...well, how much does it take, big brother and I are afraid..."

The old lady frowned and looked at Mu Ai. She also knew that the two brothers would definitely not be able to get much silver. If it was less than 20 taels of silver, she was ready to help.This time, she helped the two of them to live a better life, and even if she completely resolved her heart, she would never miss them again.

Mu Ai thought for a while and said, "My righteous brother sells a car for 50 taels to outsiders, and the half price is 25 taels of silver. Come to think of it, the two uncles and grandpas must not be able to pay so much money, right? Why don't I talk to Yi Let’s discuss it, let them sign a contract first, sell the sweet potatoes after the autumn harvest, and then repay the principal, okay?"

When the old lady heard what she said, she knew that her granddaughter was afraid of the greed of the two brothers.If they signed the contract, they wouldn't think about getting something for nothing, and they would start farming with all their heart.

Such a result is different from what Tang Cai planned to get for nothing, but he also knew that he had offended his eldest sister just now, and if the trouble continued, he might not get anything.What's more, sweet potatoes sold for several hundred taels in autumn, and it would be easy to exchange for twenty taels of silver, so he quickly agreed, and Tang Sheng naturally had no objections.

The matter was resolved smoothly, and the old lady also realized the face of her brother, so as not to be entangled in her soft heart in the future.Mu Ai didn't have anything to worry about anymore, so she smiled, "I'll write a letter to Yixiong at night, and tomorrow I'll send two uncles and grandpas to the city to plant sweet potatoes. That's not true, immortals don't leave uncles and grandpas to live longer, I'm really afraid that it will drag on for a long time, my foster brother's place has also been sold out, isn't it that we have discussed for so long for nothing?"

"Yes, Mrs. Xian is right, why don't we go to the city now." Tang Cai was anxious when he heard that, he was afraid that others would buy all the seeds, and he wished he could get them in his hands in a short while.

Mu Ai waved his hand, "Don't worry, second uncle, I just said it casually. It's getting late today, and I can't make it into the city at this time, why don't we start tomorrow. The two uncles and grandpas come here very rarely, and I haven't seen them for a long time Grandma is gone, and I will let the girl bring over the table with food and drinks in a while, so it can be regarded as a practice for uncles and grandpas."

The old lady already felt that she had caused Mu Ai trouble, and seeing her being so polite, she knew that she was afraid that her two brothers would make her suffer from old illnesses, so she was moved and felt guilty for a moment.

I wanted to open my mouth to refuse, but out of the corner of my eyes, I saw the faces of the nephews and grandchildren who were obviously rosy in the past few days, and the quilted jackets with patches on their bodies, and my heart softened.

These two children must have suffered a lot since they were young. I am afraid that apart from dry biscuits and boiled vegetables, they have not eaten anything good on weekdays.The food at Xianxian's place is one of the best, that's all, just let them satisfy their hunger, send them back tomorrow, and forget about my own thoughts, in case I suddenly fail one day, it's nothing to them Missed.

So she nodded in agreement, Mu Ai turned her head and told Dongzhi twice to see that she was going out to make arrangements, and then continued to coax the old lady to tell some interesting stories about the children.

The old lady heard that Mu Ai had adopted two children, a boy and a girl, and after a few days they settled down, she brought them to kowtow to her, thinking that her granddaughter would be reliable in her old age, she had a smile on her face, and asked again and again The child is tall and good-looking, and he plans to make two sets of clothes for the children as a meeting gift.

Tang Cai saw that Mu Ai's few words coaxed the old lady's complexion to improve, so he joked about the recent situation of the old people in the village, which caused the old lady to ask questions, and the atmosphere finally improved a lot.

At this time, Shuan Shuan also freshened up and rushed over to visit the old lady.Tang Cai looked at this niece and grandniece with a beautiful face, well-dressed clothes, and exquisite jewelry. She was not the farm girl he imagined. If he saw her on the road, he would think she was a lady from a rich family in the city.Tang Cai had to admit that his grandson was indeed not a good match for her.

Shuan Shuan didn't know at all that this uncle was thinking about getting married just now, and he greeted the old lady and Mu Ai graciously.

Then, under the introduction of the old lady, I met my uncle and uncles. He behaved politely and dignifiedly, and there was a hint of bookishness between the lines when he spoke. At that moment, Tang Cai completely let go of those thoughts.

Tang Fa had been farming all his life, and since he knew that he would be able to get sweet potato seeds tomorrow, he asked aloud how to plant them.Mu Ai didn't have a bad impression of him, and she didn't hide anything, so she told them the details she knew.

Tang also talked a lot, and asked a few questions from time to time. This conversation lasted for more than half an hour. Mu Ai occasionally praised a few words, "Uncle and grandpa are really good at crops", coaxing the old man to blush again and again. modesty.

When the sky was getting dark, it is said that Li Sheng, who went hunting with the villagers, came back from the outside.Mu Ai saw that he didn't have any scratches on his clothes or hands, and he didn't bring back half of his prey, but instead of being ashamed on his face, there was a little joy on his face, and his heart was moved.

But he didn't say much, and greeted him with a smile. After a while, Winter Solstice, Kexin, and the newly bought Danyun and Chunxiao brought a food box and set up a sumptuous banquet in the lobby. .

Considering that the family background of the two uncles is not very good, Mu Ai must seldom eat meat on weekdays.In addition, it is not yet the first lunar month after all, so if you take out fresh vegetables, I am afraid that Tang Cai will have other ideas.
