Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 160

But with Jia Dapang's appearance, he couldn't stand up in front of Qian Feng, so Qian Feng had no choice but to let it go, "Big Fatty, if you refuse like this, I will stay here for now. From now on, we will stay in this room when we have nothing to do at night, playing cards and chess, doing homework, and getting through the days like this."

Fatty Jia sat down and said: "I knew it would be interesting to be with you. Before, I was afraid that there would be a stunned young man who couldn't play anything. The two of them stared at each other all day. How boring! Those two The two cooks are all in their 40s, and I can't get along with them. They came yesterday and lived in a small room next to the woodshed. The two of them shared a room. But their The craftsmanship is really good, I tasted the cakes they made when I came in the morning, it was delicious!"

"That's right, they use this skill to serve high officials, so let's enjoy it by the way."

They were talking about the cook, and the two cooks brought out the food, three dishes and one soup, rice and steamed buns.

Qian Feng and Jia Dapang sat down to eat, "Big fat, this food is not bad. I heard that the post office only has one hundred and five dollars a month. You, the post office, should have a lot more, otherwise you will all be paid." Not enough to support a family."

Fatty Jia shook his head and sighed: "I am a servant, far worse than you who are a big boss, and the post office has no entry, how much monthly money can I have. I get 550 Wen a month in Weihe County, and I can get it here." Six hundred cash is not far behind. Usually my family only needs 350 cash to buy firewood, rice, oil and salt every month, and I can save two hundred cash per month. Now I eat and drink here, and I should be able to save more. Now there is a wife in the family , I will have to raise a baby soon, and I won’t be able to live well.”

Qian Feng gave Jia Dapang a mysterious look, "Don't worry, you follow me, whether you can be promoted depends on your luck, but if there is no accident, if you can make a small fortune, you only save 200 yuan this month." Duowen, the money to make a decent dress is gone, life is really hard."

Fatty Jia flashed his dark eyes, "Can I get a reward?"

Qian Feng said in a low voice: "You can't get rich by rewarding money, and you will know when the time comes."

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Fatty Jia desperately poured vegetables into Qian Feng's bowl.

Qian Feng was a little overwhelmed, "Big fat, don't be like this, we are our own people now, I can do it myself."

The two of them ate and chatted, and they also discussed one thing. When no officials came, they would take turns to be on the job for three days and then rest for two days. On the third day, both of them were at the post station.If the officials came, both of them would have to wait here to entertain the officials, do the welcoming and seeing off, and take care of the chariots and horses.

Qian Feng is doing well here, but Shiliu has encountered a little trouble at home, because her mother-in-law is about to give birth.

Qian Tong raises silkworms, her legs are almost healed, she has thrown away her crutches, but she is still a little limping, just inconspicuous.Ge Taohua said that it was because it was still more than ten days before the hundredth day, so she might not be lame once the hundredth day passed.

Qian Tong raises silkworms, much more than Qian Feng raised last year, and he is almost too busy just to serve these silkworms. If there are not two children helping at home, he would be exhausted just picking mulberry leaves, so he has no free time Help Ge Taohua to work in the field.

At this time, she was busy with spring plowing, Ge Taohua's family had so many fields, and she only cared about working hard outside every day, and she might not have time to help her mother-in-law to have a baby.

Pomegranate originally wanted to go to the field to do spring plowing by herself, but her mother-in-law has been suffering from stomach pains for the past two days, and she dared not go out, so she had to ask the workshop workers to help with spring plowing and sowing. Father Qian also has to be busy with his own field work, not to mention Yang's stomach hurts for a while every day and he doesn't give birth. It is impossible for him to stay at home all the time.

The burden of taking care of the mother-in-law fell on Pomegranate. The woman Wen from the neighboring village came to visit and said that she should pay attention to whether the water broke. If the water broke, Pomegranate would call her to deliver the baby.

Pomegranate seemed to have received the imperial decree. She asked Mrs. Yang many times a day, Mother, did your water break?Mom, does your stomach hurt?Mom, did you pee or did you break the water?
