Chapter 51

"Lotus, I'm back!" Before reaching the door, Wu Jiafan started to shout.

Lotus put down the work in her hand and came out to welcome her, "Come back when you come back, and let me set off firecrackers to celebrate, how is it in Xu Mansion today? Has anyone bullied you?"

"Hey, who can bully me!" I really underestimated him. He wasn't the one who bullied others every time, so no one could bully him.

"Then have you seen the young master of the Xu family? How about others, did they make things difficult for you?" He Hua was worried that children from such rich families would be too tempered, and Wu Jiafan would suffer. She heard that only a child from a poor family in Wu Jiafan entered After entering the Xu Mansion, the other four are children of respectable families in the city.

"I see, it's not good. From now on, we will have one day off for every five days of class." Wu Jiafan asked others who didn't like lotus flowers.Change the subject if you don't want to answer.

It's a pity that the transfer was unsuccessful, and Lotus pushed him twice, "It's not what it is. You said it!"

"There's just something wrong with it. It's so cold and you're swinging a fan around there. It looks at people with squinted eyes. It's so ugly, its nose is like a pig's!" He held his head high, only Seeing two nostrils is not what a pig nose is.He didn't think it was because he was short.

He Hua was afraid that Wu Jiafan would discriminate against him and offend his young master, so she said: "We don't care what kind of parents he is, even if he is a pig, it's none of our business, you just need to study hard."

"Of course, I hate pigs the most. Don't you hate pigs too? Let's hate him together!" Wu Jiafan said cheerfully, not caring about calling a handsome young man a pig.

"Okay, okay, I hate pig heads the most."

"Ah Choo, Ah Choo!" Xu Shijie sneezed twice, "Someone speak ill of me again!"

The little book boy Xu Huacan quickly poured him a cup of hot water, "Who would dare to speak ill of you? Could it be a cold?"

"I'm in good health, why did I catch a cold!" Someone must be chewing the back of his tongue.

The little book boy slandered in his heart, you carry a fan every day, how can you not catch a cold?It's normal to have a cold.

Wu Shan took Wu Jiafan to the town every day. He first sent Wu Jiafan to Xu's Mansion, and then sent a loan to Li's shop.Mrs. Zhang and He Hua are working at home.At this time, the bamboo shoots were about to be dug up by them, and the lotus was worrying.

Today she came to the mountain with Mrs. Zhang again.It's a pity that only one bamboo shoot was dug, and the lotus asked Mrs. Zhang to go back first, and she went to the mountain to look for other places with bamboo shoots.

I searched and searched but couldn't find any places with bamboo shoots. From last winter to now, most of the places with bamboo shoots have been dug up by them.

Just when she was feeling discouraged, Lotus suddenly saw the leaves of a plant on the ground in front of her, which looked like yam leaves.She knelt down and took out the small shovel for digging bamboo shoots and started digging.The more you dig, the more it looks like a yam, and you can already see a part of it.Digging down, the whole picture of the yam is in front of you.

Lotus picked up the yam and touched it up and down. It was really a yam, which was great.There's a whole lot more here.Yam is a good thing. It has a series of benefits such as nutrition and nourishment, enhancing immunity, clearing away heat and detoxification, etc.Whether it is used as medicine or cooked and eaten, it is good for people.

She carefully dug a piece of yam and went down the mountain to return home.Show the yam to Mrs. Zhang.Mrs. Zhang took the yam and said happily: "This is really a yam. I didn't expect you to know yam?"

"I also found that a large area of ​​the mountain is full of yams!" said He Hua.

"That's great. We can sell the yams in the pharmacy, and we can definitely sell them for a good price." Mrs. Zhang said that every time her family has a minor illness or pain, they dare not hire a doctor, and they are also afraid of buying medicines. Medicine is expensive.

"Mother, the medicines here are very expensive, why don't we grow yams." He Hua thought of this question when she dug up the yams.She used to love to eat yam, not only can strengthen the body, but also cure disease.The taste is still delicious.It's just that people here only regard yams as medicine, and the output of yams is very small. Most of them rely on people who know medicine to go to the mountains to pick them, which makes yams expensive.Not to mention cooking and eating, even buying medicine may not be affordable.

"Growing? But we don't know how to grow it!" Mrs. Zhang was not sure when she said it. Only specialized doctors can grow medicines. I haven't heard of farmers planting medicines. But thinking that lotus flowers even know yams, I said Maybe she really can plant.

"We can try to grow it first. Although I have never grown it, I have seen how to grow it. Mom, think about it. If we really grow it, we can sell it in drugstores and cook it." Lotus strives for Zhang's consent.

Mrs. Zhang was also moved, but, "Lotus, we want to grow peppers, pumpkins, and rice. What kind of yam should I go for?"

This lotus has also thought about it, in fact, she still wants to buy more land.The family currently only has [-] mu of land including the land they bought last year, so they said to Mrs. Zhang, "I want to buy some more land."

Mrs. Zhang has nothing to disagree with buying land. Of course, the more land the better. "When your father comes back, let's discuss it with him."

After Wu Shan and Wu Jiafan came back, He Hua said her thoughts again.

Wu Shan is also very supportive.With the support of the whole family, Lotus started to act.After going up the mountain to pick up the yams every day.Wu Shan asked Wu Shan to sell the yam in the pharmacy, and a catty of yam was worth one tael of silver.In addition to the money from selling fermented bean curd, the family can earn two to thirty taels a day.

The lotus leaves the yam beans, that is, the seeds of yams, and plans to plant yams at that time.

As for the land to buy, I have to inquire about it. If you can’t buy it in the village, you can go to other places to buy it. In fact, lotus doesn’t think it’s safe to buy land in such a scattered way. In that way, she can buy a Zhuangzi.Plant whatever you want.

But now let's buy land with peace of mind. After inquiring for a while, Mrs. Zhang heard that Widow Li's family was going to sell the land.It was the one whose man died working in Xu's Mansion last year. She couldn't grow so much land as a woman, so she wanted to sell it. In addition, Xu's Mansion lost a lot of money, so she didn't have to farm any more. She planned to sell it wholeheartedly. Buy another shop to do business.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard about it, she hurried back and told He Hua.

"That's great, mother, we can buy their land!" He Hua said happily, she really wanted to do whatever she wanted, and she was worried that the land was not available just now.Now there is news.

"Well, I heard that there are other people in the village who want to buy her land, but they buy it acre by acre. She wants to sell a total of ten acres of land. How much lotus do we buy?" Zhang asked.

Unexpectedly, it was ten acres, and He Hua was even happier, thinking that she only sold two or three acres.Of course I bought them all.Persuading Mrs. Zhang: "Mother, let's buy them all."

"Let's wait until your father comes back to decide, we can't make a decision casually!" Mrs. Zhang hesitated.
