Splendid Pastoral: The Strong and Hot Wife

Chapter 46
Xu Xiaomi was walking on the way home thinking, luckily she brought the money with her today, otherwise it would be gone, they would have to return the things, but the money...

Who would believe her if she said it, and she has so much money in only ten days since she came back?It really won't work for a long time like this!She has to find a way to solve it.Something like this must never happen again.

When she got home, Wen Xiuniang had already delivered the oil.

After she closed the fence gate, she went into the house, closed the living room door, and went to her parents' room, where her mother made the bed for her younger brother, Xu Hao and her younger sister were helping her mother, and her father was sitting on the edge of the bed .

She went to her father and asked, "Father, how much money do we need to build five decent houses?"

Xu Erqiang was stunned for a moment before he said, "It costs about two taels of silver for a mud brick house, and four taels of silver for a blue brick house!"

Xu Erqiang didn't dare to think about repairing green brick and tile houses. For mud bricks, the brick embryos must be pressed first, and then they must be cut off and dried in the sun before they can be used.At least two or three months, he doesn't dare to think about it now.My daughter took two hundred copper coins for the Chinese New Year, how dare I want to repair the house?

After hearing what her father said, Xu Xiaomi thought to herself: She only has four taels of silver on her body now. If she repairs the house all at once, where will she get the money to eat?It's only the second day of the first lunar month, and there are still several months to harvest the wheat!Think of another way!The house must be repaired, but let's talk about earning more money!

Thinking of this, she said to her father, "Father, let's replace the gate outside the yard with a wooden gate first! Build the yard wall with mud bricks."

Xu Erqiang looked at his daughter's bright black eyes, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll cut some trees behind the house tomorrow!"

"Okay, anyway, there isn't much farm work this first month, so I want to invite grandpa to do the house for us!" Xu Xiaomi got his father's consent, and happily expressed his thoughts.

At this time, the mother made the bed, and Xu Xiaomi took her younger brothers and sisters to wash their faces and feet, and then went to sleep.

On the morning of the third day of the first lunar month, Xu Xiaomi got up early again.I was thinking in my heart that I haven't been to the mountains for several days, so I have to go to see if there is any harvest in the trap today?
She'd better make breakfast first, and then wash up by herself, alas!It's a pity that the toothbrush can't be used without toothpaste!

well!It seems that I have to find some herbs and come back to make some rough toothpaste!
When her parents got up, she put all the food, bowls and chopsticks on the table, and had breakfast after her parents washed their faces.

During dinner, Xu Xiaomi asked Xu Erqiang: "Father, did you go to the mountains on the [-]th day and didn't find anything?"

Xu Erqiang took a sip of porridge and said, "No, maybe it's because it's just been done!"

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi said: "Father, then, let's go and have a look today! By the way, bring back the coal that was dug out!"

"Didn't you say you're going to cut down a tree to make a door today?" Xu Erqiang asked.

"Father, the tree at the gate will have time to go to the mountains when we come back in the afternoon." Xu Xiaomi said vaguely after taking a bite of the cake.

"Okay then! Where's your brother? Do you want to call him today?" Xu Erqiang asked his daughter.

"Let's go too! There's so much coal, he can help get some when he goes." Xu Xiaomi thought that if he was lucky today, he might not have enough people!

So, while eating, he walked to his younger brother's bed and called, "Xu Hao, get up and eat quickly! After eating, we will go to the mountains again today!"

Xu Hao fell into a drowsy sleep when he heard his sister say that he was going to the mountains, so excited he rolled up from the bed, got dressed two or three times, and ran to the yard to wash up.

When Xu Xiaomi was ready to put the bowl, Xu Hao hurriedly finished the porridge in the bowl, took a cake in his hand, and ate it while walking.

Xu Xiaomi brought water in a bamboo bottle made by herself today, as well as dry food for the father and son.
