Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 400 Mid-Autumn Festival Covenant
"That much money is too heavy. I'll bring a few more people to move out together later." Ding Shitou smiled triumphantly.

"Okay, I'll wait for those little ones to help you move the money." Zhao Jian was amused, and didn't believe that those little ones could do this.

When the two got into the carriage, Ding Shitou opened the back basket and took a look, then couldn't help laughing.

"Uncle has a heart, and knows that he can't please me, so he goes to please my Dingdian, Xiaofu, and Lingdang."

"What did you give?" Zhao Jian was curious.

"Several packages of pastries, shortbread, glutinous rice cakes, candied fruit, and... candied haws, melon candies, and red dates underneath... What is this?"

Ding Shitou curiously took out a wooden box from the bottom of the basket, opened it, and handed it to Zhao Jian.

"It's bird's nest, to please you." Zhao Jian touched it with his hand, and handed it back to Ding Shitou with a smile. "Every night, stew a pot, put two red dates and rock sugar, eat it so that you can sleep."

"Rich man!" Ding Shitou breathed out, only thinking of one comment.

"Master's daughter-in-law, eating some bird's nest is nothing." Zhao Jian raised his hand to touch Ding Shitou's cheek and pinched it lightly, and said with a smile.

"Okay, I heard that the bird's nest is nourishing, beautifying and beautifying. For this gift, I don't care about it with uncles." Ding Shitou accepted the gift, and it was considered a peace.

"Do you want to sleep a little longer?" Zhao Jian shook his head, unable to argue with this girl about the elder brother and uncle.

"No, stay with you for a while, and you should also take a good rest these few days. I will take them into the city on the morning of the 20th, and tell the outside world that I will make Mid-Autumn Festival noodles for the young master in the city, and I can earn [-] taels."

"Okay, you can tell later that the young master is very satisfied with the meeting, and it's a holiday, so I will give you an extra 20 taels. With these 40 taels, it is enough to buy land."

Zhao Jian understood Ding Shitou's intentions and hurriedly collected money for her.

"Five taels is enough for the Lord. No matter how much it makes people suspicious, it will be more reasonable to reward the mooncakes and snack fruit plates that the mansion can't finish eating."

"Okay, listen to my wife. In the past two days, I will also send people to visit the nearby villages to see if there is any land to buy. If sweet potatoes are to be grown in large quantities, there may not be enough this year."

"When the sweet potatoes are harvested, I will buy some reserved seeds. When the harvest is next year's autumn, I will directly transport the sweet potatoes back to my hometown in the north. Within three years, I will be able to expand the production."

Zhao Jian was thinking about growing grain and planned to buy land nearby first.

This kind of scattered land has little influence on Zhao Wangfu, and it doesn't matter who it is recorded in.

"Well, the autumn harvest is now the best time to buy land. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will be free. I will accompany you to visit other places. I will buy more and plant other crops."

Naturally, Ding Shitou was a little moved, she didn't have enough money, Zhao Jian did, and what was his was hers.At that time, without the shackles of Nancheng Village's identity, they will be able to buy more idle fields.

After making the mid-autumn appointment, the carriage arrived outside Nancheng Village. Ding Shitou kissed Zhao Jian, and then jumped out of the carriage with a basket on his back. Watching the carriage turn back to the city, he also strode towards the village.

They set off early, and it was still very quiet when they entered the village.

But the people in the village are not still dreaming, but most of the strong laborers have gone to work in the fields, and the village women are busy picking vegetables in the vegetable fields, cooking smoke, and preparing breakfast.

Nowadays, families with children who want to go to school have breakfast much earlier than before. After the children have eaten, the people who work in the fields will come home one after another.

This is the busy time of farming, and the farmers who have passed down from generation to generation have long been used to it.

Ding Shitou has lived here for more than half a year. Although there are many inconveniences, he also enjoys a solid sense of peace and feels like a home.
