Chapter 471: It's time to buy someone
After staying at home for three days, Xuan Miaoer and they returned to town.
Now that Xuan Miaoer's painting gallery has Zhou Yuguang and them, she is also happy to be idle, and she can do whatever she wants, so she thinks about going back to Hewan Village to see the autumn harvest at home for a few days.
Just in time for the end of the month, I went to pick up Xuan Anhao yesterday and came back, and the two sisters and brothers sewed cloth bags by the stone table in the yard, planning to go home today and go to the rice field in the afternoon to catch grasshoppers.
Hua Jiye entered the gallery and didn't see Xuan Miao'er, so he looked around again.
Zhou Yuguang saw Hua Jiye and hurriedly greeted him: "The playboy is here, the young lady and the young master are in the backyard." ”
Hua Jiye nodded, walked to the backyard without speaking, and when he entered the yard, he saw the sister and brother sewing cloth bags: "What are you doing here?"
Xuan Miaoer saw Hua Jiye and beckoned him over: "Hua Jiye, you are here, come and see the cloth bags we made, and go back to Hewan Village in the afternoon to catch grasshoppers, do you want to go together?"
Hua Jiye walked over and sat opposite the two: "I haven't caught grasshoppers, but I can try." ”
Xuan Anhao looked at Hua Jiye in disbelief: "Brother Jiye, you are so powerful, how can you not catch grasshoppers? ”
Hua Jiye is embarrassed, it's true that he is powerful, but must he have caught grasshoppers for this awesome? ”
"Okay, I'm the best at catching grasshoppers, and the Winter Boy can't compare to me. "Xuan Anhao's grasshopper catching technique is the most proud of himself.
Xuan Miao'er patted Xuan Anhao's head: "The cloth bag is sewn, you go and get what you want to take home, let's go back to Hewan Village." ”
Xuan An ran into the house happily.
Hua Jiye remembered that the fruits in his manor were also ripe, and he had said before that he would invite Xuan Miaoer to play: "Miao'er, the fruits on my manor are ripe, go to Hewan Village to play today, if it's okay tomorrow, call your eldest sister, your brother and your friends Let's go to Zhuangzi to play for a day, by the way, how about you all pick some fruits and come back?"
Xuan Miao'er just has time to play now: "Okay, I'm not afraid to go out to play now, just go back today and I'll tell Sister Mengxian and Sister Xiao Tao." ”
At this time, Xuan Anhao ran out with a few books he brought to Dong Lidong, as well as food: "Second sister, I've packed up, shall we leave here?"
"Let's go, go back early and see what's going on. Xuan Miao'er didn't have anything to bring, so she stood up.
The three of them got into the carriage, Hua Jiye took two family members, and there were too many people to let go of the carriage, anyway, Xuan Miaoer was only twelve years old, and this was not a lonely man and widow, so a carriage went back to Hewan Village.
Along the way, in the fields on both sides of the road, the fiery sorghum burned like clusters of flames, and the golden wheat rippled in the wind, like a pool of gold, shining so brightly.
As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw that their rice fields were being harvested, but they were far away from the fields, so Xuan Miaoer and they didn't get out of the carriage to disturb, they just stood on the carriage and waved their hands over there, anyway, they had to come to the rice field in the afternoon.
When I got home, Liu was squatting at the kitchen door to wash vegetables, and when I saw Xuan Miao'er and they came back, there were no outsiders, and Liu didn't stop what he was doing: "A few of you are back, Jiye is also here, I won't greet you so much, you can order it yourself." ”
Hua Jiye likes this feeling, it's like a family, without hypocritical politeness: "Well, you're busy, auntie, I'm not familiar with your family." ”
Xuan Miao'er grimaced at Hua Jiye: "As far as you can say nicely, you and my brother will go to play, and I will help my mother wash the vegetables." ”
At this time, Xuan Manjuan came out of the kitchen: "Miao'er, don't stretch out your hand, your second uncle and your second aunt are back, there is no shortage of people for this work, you children go into the house to play." ”
Xuan Miaoer didn't expect Wei Xin to come back to work, there is really no shortage of people in this house, she and Hua Jiye went back to the house, and took out two pairs of sleeves and gave them to Hua Jiye and Xuan Anhao: "This sleeve is so wide that it is inconvenient to catch grasshoppers, just bring this." ”
This sleeve is no stranger to their family, so they all took it.
The lunch was ready, and the lunch was eaten early, because they had to deliver it to the people who worked in the fields.
Hua Jiye is also used to coming, so he doesn't need anyone to entertain him, he follows Xuan Miaoer to set the dishes and chopsticks, these people in the family are okay with the children or they are married, so Hua Jiye doesn't have to eat alone, and these people in the family are all sitting at the same table.
Liu was still holding Chubby in his arms while eating: "I still feel that there are few people in this family when I get to work, if only I was fat, I will not leave people all day long." ”
Wei Xin pinched her chubby face: "Sister-in-law can take Chubby, isn't this job with me and my eldest sister?"
"But no, don't think about working all day, Dafeng can come over to help that afternoon, we can be busy." Xuan Manjuan put the packed vegetables in the basket.
Hua Jiye actually felt that Xuan Miaoer's family should hire long-term workers for a long time, and at this time it was just time to mention: "Auntie, my friend came back from the north a few days ago, and met a big family seller in distress, he saw a middle-aged couple with a daughter, the man also knew a few words and bought it back, I didn't expect the phase and his family to make a mistake, this is going to be sold cheaply, I totaled your family also needs to hire long-term workers, it is better to buy it back." ”
Xuan Miaoer has always wanted to buy someone for her family, but Liu disagreed, saying that this house is better and has more land, but the family always feels uncomfortable, and this Hua Jiye said this at the right time.
She also hurriedly fanned the wind and said: "Mother, I think it's okay, our house has such a big yard, and there is a lot of work after the autumn harvest, and a few more people are working at home, and it's not good to say that the front gatehouse in front of our house is empty, and this house is not damp for a long time." ”
Liu still doesn't quite accept this: "It's okay to have Aunt Sun in the town, in order to take care of you little ones, I can't do anything with your father at home, and besides, I know each other in Hewan Village, if our family uses people, don't let others gossip?"
"Mother, what are you talking about, our family is getting better and better, and we have to buy it sooner or later. "Xuan Miaoer knows Liu's thoughts, these are all poor people, and their own family is becoming more and more high-profile, for fear of attracting envy.
Hua Jiye also understood Liu's worries: "Auntie, don't worry about the jealousy of the people in the village, as soon as An Rui's carving workshop opens in the coming year, all the men in this village will have work and earn silver, and when the time comes, you will benefit the whole village, who can not respect you." ”
Xuan Miaoer gave Hua Jiye a rewarding look: "That's right, and now many things in our handicraft house are not made by the villagers, and we will have a way to make money with the villagers in the future." ”
Wei Xin is also from a business background, and her thinking is also thoughtful: "Sister-in-law, what the two of them said is right, our family will buy someone sooner or later, if you meet a good one, you will buy it, and you may not meet a good one when you want to buy it in the future." ”
Hearing everyone say this, Liu's heart is also active, but he still can't settle down: "Why don't I ask the child his father in the evening." (To be continued.) )
