Smallholder Farming Daily

Chapter 234

After paying homage to the Stove King, everyone came to the main room and set up two tables to celebrate the new year together, eating delicious dishes and drinking warm wine.

At night, Fatty Jia and Huier lived on the second floor of Qian Feng's new home, and when they were lying on the comfortable bed, Fatty Jia couldn't help but sigh, "It's still Qian Feng who will live his life, hiding in the countryside and enjoying happiness, not chasing fame and fortune. He has a quick mind, if he is willing to serve the First Prince, he will definitely be able to become a high official."

Hui'er was lying on her side, breastfeeding little Jia Ren, and said: "Everyone has aspirations, he just wants to live a leisurely life, and doesn't like to go to the officialdom, and you can't let go of fame and fortune, you always want to have a good future. Actually Thinking about it carefully, it's better to be Qian Feng, and the family members don't have to worry about it."

Fatty Jia leaned over and put his arms around Hui'er's waist, "The hard times are temporary, Qian Feng has already made up his mind, saying that the eldest prince will definitely ascend the throne, which is just a matter of a few months. You two go to live in the capital, where the prosperity is like brocade, and there are many rare things, you can also learn a lot."

Hui'er sighed: "Let's not talk about going to the capital, even if you're going to Saibei or a barbarian land, my baby and I will go with you. They say marry a chicken and follow a chicken. I was the one who wanted to marry you at the beginning." , I will have no complaints, as long as the whole family can live together, it will be good anywhere."

Fatty Jia only felt a rush of heat in his heart, "I am really blessed to be married to a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law like you. I will pay respects to Qian Feng when I get up tomorrow morning. If he hadn't worked hard at that time, I wouldn't have done it." Dare to go to your house to propose marriage."

Early the next morning, Fatty Jia really came downstairs to pay respects to Qian Feng.

It's just that Qian Feng and Shiliu are squatting there counting copper coins and have no time to be worshipped.Qian Feng raised his head and asked, "Big Fatty, why are you begging me so early in the morning? Hurry up and help string up the copper coins. I've already weighed all the silver, and it's all right. I haven't counted the scattered copper coins."

Fatty Jia came over to help, seeing that Qian Feng's family fortune was almost wiped out, he felt uncomfortable, "Qian Feng, you don't blame me for coming to you, do you?"

Before Qian Feng could speak, Shiliu hurriedly said: "What are you talking about, if my family has no food in the future, our family will go to your house to rely on it. By the way, you and Qian Feng will go out to buy food later." You are not allowed to pass the grain in front of the old courtyard, if my mother-in-law and sister-in-law find out, you won’t be able to take out the money at all!”

Fatty Jia quickly nodded, "Got it, got it."

He looked at Qian Feng again, "You really don't blame me?"

Qian Feng was busy counting the money, so he threw it to him, "Blame you, hurry up and string up the money. Huh? Where did I count just now? Oh, 350...seven. Let's hurry up, wait for my mother If it breaks in, it will make a big fuss."

The three of them worked hard for a while, and finally packed the silver and copper plates into several boxes, and tied them into the cart.Qian Feng and Jia Dapang didn't even eat breakfast, so they rushed to the county.Fatty Jia had already arranged hundreds of people to wait in the county, and then they started buying grain together.

When Hui'er went downstairs, she saw pomegranate cooking porridge in the new kitchen, and Mrs. Guo playing with money in the yard, but she didn't see Fatty Jia.

"Pomegranate, I fed my baby several times last night, and I couldn't get up in the morning. Get up just now, and the fat man will disappear. He seemed to say last night that he would come to pay respects to Qian Feng in the morning. You see Is he gone?"

Pomegranate stirred the almost cooked porridge in the pot, and said, "See you, he has already gone to the county with Qian Feng."

Hui'er walked into the kitchen, "Why are they going to the county?"

Shiliu hurriedly closed the door of the stove, and said in a low voice, "The two of them went to buy food. The big fat brother said that he would send it to the eldest prince, and it must be delivered before the tenth day of the first lunar month. I guess he will go straight to the road after buying the food, and won't come back." .”

Huier was startled, Jia Dapang didn't mention such a big matter in front of her.

Pomegranate said again: "He asked me to tell you, but he didn't dare to tell you, by the way, you must not let my family know about this. My house is almost empty now, my mother-in-law If you find out, there will be endless troubles, and you will not be able to pass this year."

Hui'er was stunned for a while, and came to help cut the pickles, and said with emotion: "It's also Qian Feng who is willing to treat Dapang as a confidant. He doesn't want to be an official himself, but he is willing to spend all his wealth to work for the eldest prince with Dapang." .If things come to fruition, Big Fatty may be able to repay your family in the future, but if things fail, don’t you think the money will be wasted?”

Shiliu had no burden in her heart, and said carelessly: "Qian Feng said, don't expect any reward for doing things, otherwise there will only be bad rewards and no good rewards, as long as you do things with your own heart, anyway, our family will not be reduced. There is no food. Let me tell you, my family still has dozens of taels of silver, hehe."

Hui'er really didn't know what to say, Qian Feng spent thousands of taels of silver in a few months, and only a few dozen taels of silver were left.If this matter is on her body, I'm afraid she will only have to wipe away tears at this moment.

Huier said emotionally, "Pomegranate, you are so kind."

"I've been fine!" Pomegranate chuckled, wiping her hands on the apron on her chest, "Let's fry three pancakes this morning, and don't fry the eggs. It's more frugal."

Hui'er choked up and nodded, "Yes."
