Farmer’s Stepmother’s Skillful Farming

 Chapter 612 Adding Chaos

 The world of adults is indeed much more complicated than that of children.

Lu Wenqing pursed her lips, but the movements of her hands sped up a bit.

　That evening, several exquisite and delicious snacks were delivered to the Gu family's residence.

“It’s so delicious.” Gu Yunxi couldn’t help but sigh as he ate the fragrant and delicious lotus cake, “Sister Lu’s craftsmanship is really good. The lotus cake she makes is so delicious. Dad, would you like to try it?”

"I just ate Poria Cake, which was good." Gu Xiuwen said, "Shunyizhai was your sister Lu's pastry shop before, so the pastries she made are naturally very delicious."

"Yeah." Gu Yunxi tilted his head. After finishing all the lotus cakes on his hand, he went to Gu Xiuwen to get some. "Dad, I think you also like eating cakes. If you have time, I'll go find them." Sister Lu, let Sister Lu make some more.”

"Nonsense." Gu Xiuwen said, "Shopkeeper Lu has to deal with Qilixiang's voice and take care of his eldest brother at home. You have to ask for cakes every now and then. Isn't this causing trouble for her?"

"That's true..." Gu Yunxi scratched his ears, "Then when we are free next month, can we ask Li Xia and the other three sisters to come and stay at home for a few days? I heard that around the Dragon Boat Festival, farmers have to harvest wheat. It’s a busy holiday for ethnic studies, so I just happened to be free.”

"Okay." Gu Xiuwen nodded, "When you have time, let Mother Zhang lead the people to pickle some salted duck eggs, and make some rice dumplings when you get back. When you go to pick up Lixia, take them with you."

There is probably no shortage of food in Baishitang and Sumulan's family. It's just the custom of Dragon Boat Festival. They eat rice dumplings, steamed garlic, and salted duck eggs. These are all etiquette things. It doesn't matter whether they are in short supply or delicious. The main reason for delicious food lies in this friendship.

"Yeah." Gu Yunxi saw Gu Xiuwen agreeing so happily and said happily, "Okay, I will also make some sachets with Mama Zhang and take them together when the time comes."

 The sachets are mixed with spices and some herbs, which can repel mosquitoes. Children often play with them during the Dragon Boat Festival.

 “Okay.” Gu Xiuwen responded with a smile.

 April, the rain fell diligently twice.

　　It is when the wheat is growing vigorously and the cotton has been planted in the ground. These two rains came at the right time.

  There is no need to water the fields, and the crops can grow very well. This is a good sign of good weather and good weather.

In the past few days, spring cabbage has gradually grown, and people have begun to pick and deliver it to spicy cabbage workshops. The output of spicy cabbage is very fixed, and the sales situation is also quite stable.

 These days, the workshop is much busier than before.

There are often people waiting at the door, looking anxious.

"What are those people doing?" The people working in the workshop looked at the people outside, wondering.

"You still need to ask? You must be thinking of buying spicy cabbage." Another person said, "Well, I know the long-faced man standing over there. He is shopkeeper Sun from the town. He came from our place before. I sell spicy cabbage.”

“I don’t understand even more what you said. Didn’t shopkeeper Sun buy spicy cabbage from our workshop before? He should have been buying it all the time. Why does he have to come back again this time?”

"I guess you don't know about this. I also heard from Bai Jinbei before, saying that someone outside wants to take over our workshop's business and learn from us how to make spicy cabbage and sell it."
