Shoufu's favored wife is sweet and sassy

Chapter 17, The First Wasteland Reclamation Conference

Xiaoqing called everyone in the family out and said that there was going to be a wasteland reclamation meeting.

Including the husband who vomited another mouthful of blood in full view this morning.

Then he poured three gold ingots and more than 60 taels of silver from his mother on the table and spread them out one by one.

"This is all our property now. I'm talking about us, including all the men and women here, everyone."

"Sister-in-law, do I count too?"

Xiao Niu Niu opened her eyes wide in a childish voice, in disbelief.

Xiaoqing smiled immediately, with a gentle face, even those scary big red envelopes looked softer.

"Of course, you are our most precious little princess, sister-in-law will start saving your dowry now, okay?"

"No dowry, Niuniu wants to buy new clothes for mother!"

"Okay, not only the new clothes, but also the dowry. You wait for your sister-in-law to earn gold and silver for you."

The girl re-orientated:

"Now I will tell you my plan."

"The [-] mu of paddy fields in the front, the [-] mu of wasteland in the back, and the [-] mu of fertile land of my brother's family are all planned together."

Leaning there, Zhao Rui raised his eyebrows invisibly, wondering where this country girl's temperament of pointing the country came from.

"First, for all good fields, we use interplanting methods to grow corn and soybeans at the same time. I will tell you the specific method later. This kind of planting can double the yield per mu. Second, we have limited manpower. Instead of planting rice in the paddy field, I changed it to breeding. Scoop out all the loach left in the well, put it in the paddy field, and buy another thousand ducklings to put in it. Besides, second brother and third brother, I want to get them from the south Order the seeds, I have to work hard for you to make a trip, I will tell you this alone later."

Xiaoqing dipped her fingers in water to draw out the function of each piece of land on the table, and finally the wasteland.

"In the last piece of land, we plant apocynum and wolfberry, which are two traditional Chinese medicines. As for the seeds, I will go to the pharmacy to find them. If all goes well, our family will be able to turn around and everyone will be able to live a good life. "

"Come on, we listen to you."

"Brother, let me ask you, what is there on the mountain behind this house, has anyone ever gone up there?"

"On the mountain, it's cold now, so no one goes there, but in spring, when the snow melts, everyone will go to the mountain to pick some wild vegetables. The mountain at our gate is okay, but there are mountains and mountains behind, and no one dares to go deep. Walk around, there is everything in there, and you will not survive if you run into Xiong Xiazi."

"Then there is nothing else but wild vegetables?"

Xiaoqing knows that the mountains in the northeast are rich in various herbs, hazel mushrooms, and silly roe deer.

"Some villages have special hunters, and they can catch wild boars, roe deer, and deer from time to time. I really haven't heard of anyone going in these two villages. And we are all farmers here. , It’s just that some don’t know anything, pick it up and eat it indiscriminately and lose your life.”

Some people in the village picked mushrooms and came back to eat them. As a result, more than a dozen members of the family were poisoned to death. After that, everyone seldom went up the mountain, except that there was no food to eat, so they went to pick up wild vegetables.

Xiaoqing couldn't help muttering, could it be that what later generations heard was all lies?
When the snow melts, you must go up the mountain to see it.

After the meeting ended, Xiaoqing dragged the second and third brothers to mutter for a long time, and then gave them a gold ingot, which shocked the third child: "Why are there so many, and so much money?"

"Second brother, take it, the rich road of a poor family, who knows what will happen on the road, and a penny will be a hero! And I really don't know how much this kind of money is, so bring more Be at ease."

"Little sister, how do you know so much? Brother doesn't believe you, or..."

Eldest brother Chen Qili was a little muttering in his heart, so much money, in case of tossing to the end...

Xiaoqing smiled into a crescent with her big eyes: "Did you forget what my father said?"

"what?"

"There is Yan Ruyu in the book, there is a golden house in the book, it's all written in the book!"

"Huh? But are there ducks in the book?"

Chen Qili was even more puzzled.

Also puzzled was Zhao Rui.

There is something wrong with this daughter-in-law, she reveals weirdness everywhere, unspeakably weird.

Chen Xiaoqing took her family to work, and the villagers were still in Maodong.

No one knew that a few families had suddenly moved into the nearby villages and towns.

There is the Sun family who shaves their heads, the Liu family who blacksmiths, and the Wang family who buys tofu. They are nothing more than small merchants and hawkers, distributed around Daliu Village.

Like mushrooms after rain, they came out quietly.

Like a drop of oil dropped into a river, without stirring up a wave.
