Nongmen Rice Flower Fragrance

Chapter 185 Discussing Gifts
Li Xin and the others had lunch at Pinxiang Pavilion, bid farewell to shopkeeper Sun, and went home.

After returning home, the second manager also told Li Xin about leaving.Originally, the task of the second steward this time was to take Li Xin and Ling Feifei to Li's house with a group of servants. Now that Li Xin and Ling Feifei have arrived in Sanshi Town, his task is naturally completed, and it is time to go back to Beijing to make business up.

"It's time, it's not too early or too late, it's not easy to start! Let's just stay here overnight! It's not too late to start tomorrow morning!" Li Xin persuaded.They sent them all the way, and it was quite hard.Naturally, it was not good and people left after arriving at the place.

"This..." The second steward also hesitated.Miss Biao is also right, it is not easy to leave at this time, it is not too early or too late, it is better to leave early tomorrow morning.It's just an extra half a day, and the mansion will definitely not say anything.

"Let's stay for half a day longer. We've just arrived at the place! We're all tired from the journey, so we have to take a break before going on the road." Ling Feifei also said with a smile.

The second steward agreed, and Li Xin asked Sister-in-law Wu to take everyone to an inn to stay.The place in the house is not big, and it really can't arrange for so many people to live there.I used to think that there are not many people in the family, and I don’t need to buy a big house, a small house is enough to live in.Now, Li Xin really feels that the house at home is a bit small, and if there are any guests, it's really not easy to entertain them.

However, for the time being, this is the only way to go, and it's not good to buy a new house, isn't it?

After returning home, Li Xin asked Caiyun and Caixia to tidy up the things they had brought back, and Ling Feifei also took Madam Zhong and two maids to tidy up her room first.This time, he brought back a lot of things, so Li Xin first found a room to use as a storeroom, and put all the things that were not in use for the time being into the storeroom.

It is too inconvenient to put all the things in the room, and if so many things are placed in the room, how can people live in the room!
Soon, only Li Xin and Wen Bo were left in the hall.The whole family sits together and talks, and it is rare to see each other, so naturally they have a lot to say.

Moreover, after being away from home for so long, Li Xin also wanted to know what was going on at home.

"Sister, don't worry about things in Zhuangzi. Brother Wang and the others will take care of them. This season, according to last year's example, we planted brassicas and peas, and almost all of them should be harvested. Those who have already harvested peas can plant them." We went down to the peppers and tomatoes. Wen Hao and I went to see it a few times, and everything was arranged properly, and there was no problem." Wen Bo said with a smile.

There have been many changes in his body, he has become more mature and stable, and he really looks like a little adult.It seems that independence really needs to be slowly exercised, without her in it, since Wenbo has to learn to take on the courage of the family.In such a process, I really slowly learned to be independent.

Such a change is naturally somewhat cruel to Wenbo.After all, everyone's accelerated growth needs to pay a price.Of course, there are a lot of hardships that are beyond human understanding, but Li Xin is very pleased with Wenbo's growth.

Wen Bo is the eldest son in this family, destined to slowly become the pillar of the family.With no elders at home, Wenbo really needs to grow up as soon as possible and slowly support a family.Now that Wenbo is like this, she is really pleased, although she is also a little distressed.

"Wenbo is doing very well. When I'm not around, I'm really pleased that you can take care of everything at home." Li Xin rubbed Wenbo's head.Wen Bo also smiled, showing some confidence.

"By the way, elder sister, the corn harvested by Zhuangzi has been put into the warehouse, while the corn grown by Guihua Village has been stored in the house of Guihua Village. However, there is a strange thing. Someone stole some corn from our house. Corn." Wen Bo continued.

Li Xin felt a little strange, how could someone steal the corn?The theft of corn is actually not a big deal, because it is a relatively high-yielding thing, and it does not require much land, so it is indeed a very good crop.However, someone is already watching in the field!How could anyone steal it?
Who stole it again?Wenbo didn't mention this matter in the letter he went to last time!

"Wen Bo, what do you mean by the stolen corn?"

"At the beginning, I didn't pay much attention to it. After all, there are so many corns! I don't need to manage much later, so I won't always check. When it comes to harvesting, I found that some corn stalks and husks are still there, but inside But the corn was gone. It was done with great care, and it would not be easy to find if it wasn’t harvested.”

"Have they been stolen a lot? If not, maybe it's just the children in the village stealing them while no one is looking." The children in the village don't have any snacks on weekdays. If they see corn and feel curious, It's normal to steal some.Because, there are always some children who like to steal some food from the fields.

For example, peanuts are not planted in any field, and nothing is lost.However, the children also have a sense of propriety, they don't steal a lot, just take a little, so that people don't really notice.I didn't lose much, even if the owner found out, I wouldn't care too much about it.

"It's unlikely that the child stole it. The corn stalks are relatively tall, and the corn knots are also relatively high. If the child breaks it, it is impossible to break the top corn without hurting the stalk at all. And it is not easy to lose it." Less, there may be more than one stone in total. No child in any family would dare to harm food like this." Wen Hao analyzed.

Although Wen Hao is young, he is very smart.

When Wen Hao said that, Li Xin also felt that the matter was not simple.Children in the country also know the importance of food, and dare not harm so much food.It is possible to steal a little to try something new, but to steal so much, no child in any family dares.If the people in the village knew who's child had caused so much food damage, they wouldn't kill that child!

Li Xin didn't care about throwing away such a little corn, but thought it was strange.

"Did the village chief's uncle help to check?"

"Yes, but it's been a few days, and there's no news about it. It's hard to find out about this kind of thing, so maybe that's it." Wen Bo said with some frustration.The eldest sister asked him to take care of the affairs of the house, but he didn't take care of it well, and even let someone steal his own food.

"Since this is the case, then don't worry about it anymore, just let it go! It's just a loss of something, it's not a big deal. Don't be unhappy at Wenbo, Eldest Sister doesn't care, you've done a good job." Li Xin smiled and patted Wen Bo's shoulder.It's not a big deal, so let's leave it alone for now.

People who come to steal corn may not necessarily be for the seeds.Anyway, it won't harm my family, and there's nothing to worry about.

As long as there are a few good Wenbo, she doesn't care about anything.

"By the way, big sister, the sweet potato harvest in the village is bumper! It makes everyone happy. Even in the surrounding villages, as long as they get sweet potato vines, it will be a bumper harvest. I don't know how many sweet potatoes have been harvested. ! Everyone said that it can be eaten for several years." Wen Hao said happily.

"Really? That's really something to be happy about." Li Xin also became happy.Hearing about the great harvest, even though it is not my home, I am very happy.And it's still Osmanthus Village!After living there for a while, I finally had some feelings.

"It's really a bumper harvest. People in the village always come to ask the eldest sister if she is back, saying that they want to thank the eldest sister! Moreover, they also want to ask the eldest sister how to make the sweet potato vermicelli. After harvesting so many sweet potatoes, always If there are a lot of them piled up together, they will definitely not be able to be kept, and it would be a pity if they are broken! So I want to make sweet potato vermicelli, but I can’t do it! The uncle of the village chief has come many times.” Wen Bo said.

"Now that I'm back, I really should teach you how to make sweet potato vermicelli. Let's spend two days! Let's go back." Before the sweet potatoes were grown, I naturally put aside the matter of making sweet potato vermicelli.At the back, my own sweet potatoes have been harvested, but I haven't waited to make vermicelli!He gave all those sweet potatoes to Yin Tianchen.

"It's fine to go back to the village. Since the eldest sister is back, she has to go back and have a look."

"By the way, the members of the Ling family will be leaving early tomorrow morning. I reserved some people to stay temporarily, because I wanted to prepare some things to take home. It's not good to let them go back with an empty car. Let's all think about it and prepare some What gift!" Li Xin dragged his siblings to think about gifts together.This time, when I came back from the Ling family, I brought so many things with me, so many carriages were filled to the brim!Naturally, it is not good to let people go back with an empty car.

"Of course they don't lack expensive things, so let's take what our family has and what others don't have!" Wen Hao said, "Sister, would you like to send some sweet potatoes and corn?"

"Okay, good, our own sweet potatoes are gone, but there are plenty of them in the village! But we can buy some. But as for the corn, there are only seeds now, and there is no fresh one!" Although the corn is also delicious, it is fresh and tender. It's better to eat it fresh.Now it's some old corn, so we can't let the Ling family eat cornmeal pancakes!After all, this is whole grains, and it always feels a little bad.

"No matter how fresh the corn is, it won't be fresh when you send it to the capital. Why don't you give them the seeds! If they want to eat fresh and tender corn, they can grow it themselves." Yuexiang said suddenly.

"Yuexiang is right. What does Eldest Sister think? Others, we don't have anything fresh at home. Tomatoes are not in season, but there are dried peppers, old pumpkins, etc. Do you want to give some as well?"

"Then let's give some as gifts! Although it's not expensive, it's good to try something new. Let Zhu Yong go to Osmanthus Village to buy some sweet potatoes!" Li Xin decided.
