Farmhouse Small God Bowl

Chapter 97 Winter is coming
When Zhou Xiaobai was beating her chest and feet in her heart, the little maid had already cleaned up for her, "Girl, let's eat something first and put it down."As he spoke, he called someone to bring a food box from the outhouse, and said with a smile, "Girl, the eldest young master specifically explained that the girl is sick and needs something light to eat, so I ordered the kitchen to make some porridge with preserved eggs and lean meat. It is nutritious , and light and easy to digest.”

Looking at the fragrant food in front of him, Zhou Xiaobai suddenly lost his appetite, thinking bitterly in his heart.Shang Luoran, can't you be a little bit worse?Why do you treat yourself so well when you have already rejected yourself so clearly?
Seeing Zhou Xiaobai staring at the meal without eating, the little maid was surprised, "Girl, can't you eat without the young master by your side?" He seemed to let go, teasing Zhou Xiaobai secretly.

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaobai couldn't eat anymore. If he didn't know that this little maid was unintentional, he would really have thought that she was poking his scar.Hey, people are iron and rice is steel. Although Zhou Xiaobai lost his appetite even more, he still forced himself to eat it. If he didn't eat again, he didn't know what kind of joke he would make.

After eating, Zhou Xiaobai didn't have any more thoughts, stayed here, and went home regardless of the little maid's repeated dissuasion.But she was very anxious, "Girl, you haven't recovered yet, just left like this, when my young master comes back, wouldn't you scold me to death?"

Pulling Zhou Xiaobai just refused to tell her to leave.

During the chattering, Shang Lue Xing jumped out from nowhere, with his eyes wide open, pointing at Zhou Xiaobai and shouting loudly, "Wild girl, why are you at my house?"

The little maid looked a little embarrassed, "Girl, you go in first." Turning around, she persuaded Shang Luexing, "Young master, why did you get transferred here? The young master will come back in a while, if you see You will definitely not be happy here."

When Shang Lue Xing heard the little girl mention Shang Luoran, he shrank reflexively, but looked at Zhou Xiaobai, and was reluctant again, "Why is she here?"

"Young master, please stop making trouble. This girl was invited by the young master. You will be in trouble when the young master arrives in a while." Seeing that Shang Lue could not leave, the little maid was also a little anxious.

"What?" Shang Luexing's eyes were even more wide open. Before that, he heard the maids and women in the mansion say that his elder brother mysteriously brought a girl back and hid it in his side courtyard. , not letting others know, that's why he was curious.Unexpectedly, when he came here, it turned out to be Zhou Xiaobai, that wild girl.

After seeing Shangluehang, Zhou Xiaobai didn't want to stay here for a long time, "Sister, I'd better go first, when Luo Ran comes back, you just need to tell him, don't worry, he won't blame you. "

"Xiaobai, why did you get up?" Sure enough, people were going to get together, and Tang Liufeng came over with a medicine box on his back.

Having not seen brother Liufeng for several days, Zhou Xiaobai rushed over with surprise and joy.Tang Liufeng first took care of Shanglue, and then turned to Zhou Xiaobai.Although seeing Zhou Xiaobai was also happy, but still sullen, and pulled Zhou Xiaobai into the room. "Xiaobai, you really don't make people feel at ease. Why did you make such a fuss out of nowhere? Why are you still running around here and there?"

Zhou Xiaobai could only make jokes in the face of Tang Liufeng, trying to fish out of troubled waters, but Tang Liufeng is such a person who is easily fooled, so with a straight face, Zhou Xiaobai had no choice but to tell what happened.

After listening to Zhou Xiaobai's explanation, Tang Liufeng gradually eased up.Since it's all business, it's all accidents, so I can't blame others.Pulling Zhou Xiaobai's wrist to feel his pulse, he didn't expect that after this night's effort, he was already almost healed.

Zhou Xiaobai, a villain like a fine man, looked at Tang Liufeng while talking, but when he saw his face a little better, he didn't care about lying low and being small, and stepped forward, "Brother Liufeng, I'm now want to go back home!"

After Zhou Xiaobai made such a fuss, Tang Liufeng couldn't say anything.Seeing that Zhou Xiaobai's pulse is still stable this week, it is not impossible to go home.Being pestered by Zhou Xiaobai so much, thinking about the attitude he had heard Shangluehang yelling at Zhou Xiaobai at the door before, thinking that Zhou Xiaobai was not welcome here, he could only agree.

The intimate actions of the two made the two on one side feel a little unhappy.The little maid was aggrieved for her own young master, so her attitude towards Zhou Xiaobai was a bit colder at the moment.

However, Shang Lue Xing felt completely ignored by others, and felt very upset. When he was about to speak, he was held back by the little maid. Seeing an outsider, he snorted like that. It's not good.

"Master Merchant, my family Xiaobai has been bothering your house for a long time, so I will take my leave, and I will come to thank you next time." He said and left with Zhou Xiaobai.

This time I saw the doctor and said it all, but the little girl couldn't stop her, she could only stomp her feet anxiously, and looked at Shang Luexing.His old man raised his head, not knowing what he was thinking, and did not speak.

Since Tang Liufeng had brought Zhou Xiaobai out, he drove her home in a carriage by the way, and after returning home, he explained a few words before leaving.

When Chen Mo and grandpa heard that something happened to Zhou Xiaobai yesterday, they were in a hurry and wanted to go to the town, but later they heard that they were staying at the merchant to rest, so they gave up the idea of ​​going to the town.No, as soon as Zhou Xiaobai came back, the two grabbed her and looked her over.

"You child, it's really worrying. Why did something like this happen?" Zhou Gensheng snorted and scolded Zhou Xiaobai. "I see, you shouldn't be asked to go to the town to build some kind of fish pond. Chen Mo and I are worried about doing this."

Ah, as soon as Zhou Xiaobai heard that she was not asked to go to the town to build a fish pond, it was not possible, so she gave Chen Mo a wink and asked him to persuade grandpa together, but unfortunately this time Chen Mo was also very scared, even though she was thinking about the fish pond To make money, but my sister is even more valuable, so I deliberately turned my head away from Zhou Xiaobai.

Seeing Chen Mo's little action, Zhou Xiaobai knew something was wrong, and this time the two of them were very angry, so they could only continue their usual tricks, so to speak, they were temporarily fooled, and they swore again and again that if something happened again, Just stop doing it.

The matter in the fish pond has come to an end for the time being, and we only need to wait for two more days before we can officially start laying fish fry.Just now that time is free, Zhou Xiaobai went to check on the threshing ground. He was almost busy. Wang Dazhuang and the others were very experienced in doing things, and the wheat stacks were also tidy.Seeing Zhuangziniang go back, Zhou Xiaobai rushed to pay the wages for the past few days, and an extra five cents per person.

"Big sister, you are too kind. You should pay as much money as you do. Why do you pay so much?" Wang Dazhuang insisted on refusing to accept it. Although the other brothers were a little reluctant, after all, this Five Wen is enough to feed a family.

Zhou Xiaobai smiled, but also refused, "Brother, you are doing a good job, and I should give you more money. This money is for me to buy candy for my younger brothers and sisters. You can accept it quickly. If you have something to ask, if you don’t say it, how can I ask me to speak.”

Both of them were happy people, and Wang Dazhuang accepted the money. "Big sister, just tell me what you have to say. Although our brothers don't have any money to ask for, they do have a lot of strength." The brothers also laughed loudly, patted their chests and said yes.

Zhou Xiaobai also smiled, "Brothers, you are looking at the land of my family. Naturally, I can't do it alone. I want to ask you to come and help me for a long time."

Zhou Xiaobai said it politely, but he actually wanted them to work as long-term workers.Long-term workers are no better than short-term workers, so although a few people swear by their chests just now, it seems to be stuck now.Pushing and yelling, it was difficult for several people to open their mouths.

"Big brothers, don't worry, I won't treat you badly with this salary." Zhou Xiaobai thought it was a problem of salary.

Wang Dazhuang rubbed his head, and said a little embarrassedly, "Girl, when you open your mouth, your family's wages are already considered a lot, and we shouldn't consider it, but this long-term worker has been here for five years. Although the family has little land, someone still needs to take care of it.”

Hearing Wang Dazhuang's explanation, Zhou Xiaobai understood that the long-term employment should be signed according to the year.I smiled apologetically, "Brothers, I didn't think carefully because I was a girl. In fact, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to settle down. Every time when the farming is busy, such as sowing and harvesting, the brothers will come to my field. Help, I think it would be troublesome to ask someone every time."

Now Wang Dazhuang and the others understand it, and Zhou Xiaobai is not a long-term worker, "Big sister, if you say that, what do we have to say, I want to thank you, is there any hurry?" Yes, of course. To be grateful, this is equivalent to having a long-term job. I can take good care of my family and have a fixed employer in my free time. I don’t have to look for work everywhere. Everyone feels very satisfied.

In this case, Zhou Xiaobai made an agreement with them that in a few days, after they cleared their land, they would come to plant wheat for their own.After explaining all these things, Zhou Xiaobai finally settled down.

Although I have been tossing about the fish pond, if it can be done, it will be a big income, but looking at my grandfather and Chen Mo, I feel uneasy. Now that I have arranged everything in the field, at least there will be some income. Drinking my own divine water, ensuring harvest in drought and flood, my stomach is always hungry.

***********************
"Grandpa, look at this house, there are wind leaks everywhere, it's unbearably cold." Zhou Xiaobai stamped his feet in the house, tossing around, asking Chen Mo to add a brazier to keep warm.

Chen Mo was very obedient, and helped Zhou Xiaobai set up the brazier, "Sister, why are you so cold now? What kind of weather is this? You are shivering, or you can just go to bed, and you must be sure if you cover it under the quilt. warm."

Zhou Xiaobai squatted next to the brazier to help Chenmo blow the brazier, and continued to babble, "If it's a kang, I don't need you to urge me to go up. Now this bed is terribly cold, even if I go up, maybe I won't be there yet." It's warm down there."

Waiting for the fire in the brazier to ignite, Zhou Xiaobai felt a little warmer.In the blink of an eye, I have been here for several months.Time really flies by, Zhou Xiaobai just thinks that there are only a few days in summer, how come winter comes so soon.

A few days ago, according to Zhou Xiaobai's calculations, his own land had already been planted, and the interplanted corn and wheat were growing well. Everyone in the village was envious and asked Zhou Xiaobai for advice, and planned to do the same in the coming year planted.

The fish pond partnered with the merchant is also good. With the addition of Shenshui, those snakeheaded fish have adapted very well. A batch has been collected years ago, and Zhou Xiaobai has also received a lot of money.So at that time, she persuaded her grandfather to repair her house quickly, or it would definitely be too cold in winter.

But Zhou Gensheng had other thoughts, and he was a little bit reluctant. Chen Mo also felt that although the money was easy, he was afraid that it would be gone next time, so he had to save it. Besides, the cotton-padded clothes that hadn’t survived the winter in previous years were not the same. , do not agree.The family members disagreed, and Zhou Xiaobai had no choice but to give up.

No, in winter, Zhou Xiaobai, who is afraid of the cold, deeply felt that he was about to freeze into a popsicle.Zhou Xiaobai had already pasted up the gap in the window with paper, but he still felt the cold wind gust into the bone gap.

This winter, Zhou Xiaobai didn't want to go out anymore, and he didn't have any enthusiasm for work.I can't wait to see the sky and live with a brazier.

Seeing Zhou Xiaobai's trembling, Zhou Gensheng finally patted the table, "Girl Bai, this year is counted like this, you just wait a little longer, and when the spring comes next year, we will tidy up the house, and every house will be clean." Put on fire resistance."

That's right, the family has saved some money in the past few months. Zhou Gensheng couldn't bear to see his children suffer like this. He should spend money if he has money.

Zhou Xiaobai jumped up happily when he heard that, hugged Zhou Gensheng vigorously and kissed him big, "Grandpa is so kind."

Chen Mo also covered her mouth and snickered, "Sister, the bigger you get, the more you get tired of it." As he spoke, he took out a roasted sweet potato from the brazier.

Wow, roasted sweet potatoes, Zhou Xiaobai smelled the sweetness from a long distance, and slid off his grandfather with a "chuck".Seeing Zhou Xiaobai's mischievous appearance, Zhou Gensheng stroked his beard, "Hey, poor old man, I can't even compare to a sweet potato."

Tsk tsk, grandpa is still jealous. Zhou Xiaobai took the sweet potato, smiled sweetly, and brought it to grandpa's mouth, "How can it be? I just came down to get something for grandpa."

"Grandpa, if you don't eat sister's, there are more here." Chen Mo also came over to make fun of it, and quickly handed grandpa a sweet potato.
