The first peasant daughter of the green garden

Chapter 117 Selling Vegetables (5)
After some calculation, eight peasant women should be able to pick all the vegetables in a week with sixty Wen a day.

Among the many peasant women, eight peasant women were selected who looked agile, honest, kind, and hardworking.She also explained the time and wages stipulated for picking vegetables. In fact, this salary is not high, but the joy in the eyes of the peasant women made her feel that she had created a few more job opportunities.

The next day, early in the morning, she was washing rice and water when she heard someone calling herself outside the door. She saw that it was the old man who was leading the buffalo and bringing his daughter.Li Caiwei beckoned to Hongling, but Su Hongling felt a little embarrassed seeing her.

Li Caiwei put down the work in hand, the old man smiled and said: "My daughter heard that she was coming to Liujia Village, she got up early in the morning, and urged me to hurry up on the road."

When Su Hongling heard this, she couldn't hold back even more, "Father, I'm so embarrassed to hear that."

"You must have not eaten breakfast when you came here on the way. You are cooking at home, so you should stay and have breakfast."

Su Hongling tugged on her father's arm, and the old man said with a haha, "Okay, listen to my daughter."

Li Caiwei took a stool for the old man to sit in front of the yard.Su Hongling said that she would help her cook, and the two began to get busy.

Su Hongling is older than her, but her mind is more mature than Su Hongling's, and the two get along very well.

Li Caiwei put the rice into the boiling pot, while Su Hongling sat on the stove and lit the fire, the bright red light of the fire brought out her pink face, her two big eyes were watery and black.

"Hongling, you should be older than me. Logically speaking, I should call you sister Hongling, but that would be a bit of a distinction. You don't mind if I call you that?"

Su Hongling pursed her lips and smiled, "I don't mind."

"Actually, I remembered everything you told me that day. To tell you the truth, I know the person you mentioned, and he is a relative of mine."

Su Hongling was stunned for a moment and jumped in fright, but she immediately understood the reason why Li Caiwei wanted to follow her to deliver the cows, and her face blushed instantly.

Li Caiwei put the rice into the wooden steamer, took out two sausages, cut them into slices, put them in a bowl and steamed them together, and a steamed sausage was made.I also cut some bacon, and I can make a fried garlic sprout with bacon.There are a lot of vegetables in the house, and three or five more vegetables will be fried, and Erniang and brother Jiaxuan will have to be called over later. If it succeeds, the marriage will probably be successful.

She washed her hands, and Su Hongling probably guessed that she was going to call her sweetheart, and was so nervous that she didn't know what to say.

Li Caiwei comforted, "Hong Ling, don't be nervous, I'll call him over now."

Su Hongling hummed for a moment, feeling excited and shy at the same time, with mixed emotions for a while.

When I arrived at Liu's house, I saw Mrs. Zhou drying clothes in front of the yard, thinking about how to tell Mrs. Zhou about this matter, and was worried when I saw Liu Jiaxuan coming back from the ground with a hoe on his shoulder.It's not easy to talk about this matter in front of Liu Jiaxuan, so we can only discuss it with Mrs. Zhou first.

Entering the room with Mrs. Zhou, Li Caiwei whispered: "Er Niang, I went to the town to recruit workers yesterday, and met an old man who bought cattle. We chatted and learned that the old man has an unmarried daughter who is sixteen years old. , Listening to the old man's tone, my daughter is high-spirited, and she wants to find someone she likes. Thinking that the age is right, I went to see the old man's daughter, and found that it is indeed as the old man said, she is beautiful and hardworking."

Mrs. Zhou understood what she meant, "If such a good girl, can she admire Jiaxuan?"

"The girl said that she doesn't want to be rich, but only wants to marry someone she likes. The girl actually fell in love with Brother Jiaxuan."

Zhou was surprised, "This girl is not from the Liu family village, why did she fall in love with Jiaxuan?"

"The girl is shy, I asked her to come over to the house, Er Niang, do you want to see her?"

"Since the girls have taken the initiative, we have nothing to be afraid of. I'll let Jiaxuan change his clothes first, wash his face, and don't go to see other girls in disgrace."

"Well, then I'll go back and cook first, and then we'll have a meal together. If it works, this matter will be settled like this. If it doesn't work, it won't be so embarrassing to have a meal."

Mrs. Zhou nodded, agreeing with Li Caiwei's words, she didn't expect Li Caiwei to take such good care of her.

Li Caiwei just arrived at the door of the house, and saw Su Hongling sitting nervously at the door of the house, looking over here.

Li Caiwei saw that there was a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, thinking of the scene when she first met Liu Jiacheng, she was also like her, feeling uneasy.Consolingly: "Hongling, you don't need to talk when we eat later, just watch it, if you like it, you can show me, if you don't like it, just come over for a meal, and we will be sisters in the future. "

Su Hongling nodded.

After a while, Mrs. Zhou brought Liu Jiaxuan over to the house.

Li Caiwei was afraid that the two would be embarrassed when they met for the first time, so she asked Mrs. Zhou to take Liu Jiaxuan to sit in front of the yard first, and waited for the food to be served, and then went to the table to eat, so the meeting would not be so embarrassing.

Mrs. Zhou helped her put the food on the table. Su Hongling had sharp eyes and guessed that the woman in front of her was the man's mother. Afraid of losing her manners, she saw her bring a bowl of hot soup and immediately walked forward, "Let me help you. "

Mrs. Zhou sized up the girl, she was pretty good-looking, she looked lively, and her hands and feet were quick, so she had a result in her heart.Responding with a smile, "Girl, where are you from?"

"I'm from Lingdong Village."

"How many people are there in the family?"

"Just me and Daddy."

Mrs. Zhou nodded. This motherless child was raised so politely and could do things, and he felt good about it again, "I have a son who is 22 years old this year. He is honest and hardworking, but he is a bit introverted. , I don’t know if you mind or not?”

"Auntie, what I like is whether this person is self-motivated and whether he can treat me well. If he can, I will agree."

Mrs. Zhou hummed for a moment, and looked at the soup in her hand, "Be careful not to burn it." After the food was served, Liu Jiacheng, who had been working in the fields, just came back, and everyone came to the table. Li Caiwei told Liu Jiaxuan and Su Hongling Sit on opposite sides of the table so you can easily observe each other.

In order to make this blind date more harmonious, she specially took out the wine she brewed and poured a glass for everyone. As a spokesperson, she raised a glass to Liu Jiaxuan, "Brother Jiaxuan, the main reason to invite you to dinner this time is In order to thank you for helping me all the time, otherwise the farm work at home must be too busy."

Liu Jiaxuan was a little cautious, and hurriedly stood up, "They are all from my family."

After drinking a glass of wine, she looked towards Su Hongling, and found that Su Hongling's face was flushed, her eyes were rolling, and she was so handsome that she didn't even dare to lift her head.It seems that I guessed correctly.

Li Caiwei pursed her lips and smiled, she had to quickly create an opportunity for the two to get along, but before that, Liu Jiacheng should have a good impression of Hongling.

At that moment, someone shouted, "Your family is a wife, your buffalo has escaped."
