Chapter 54: Wild Cotton
In Yao Zhongbao's eyes, all this is just Tong Chuxue's helpless resistance, and there is no threat.
All the surrounding cottonseed husks were bought by him, unless Tong Chuxue waited until the next wave of cotton harvest to buy them. But at that time, her business would be delayed for a long time, and he was sure that Tong Chuxue had no other way than to buy it from himself.
A large amount of silver seemed to have appeared in front of him, and Yao Zhongbao hooked the corners of his mouth.
This time, the son's family affair cost the family a lot of money, and the daughter-in-law who married back, the son didn't seem to like it very much, and after getting married, he went back to the academy in the town to study, leaving Tong Yuer alone at home. With this money, there will be money for next year's exam.
But no matter how good he thinks in his mind, Tong Chuxue has now made up his mind not to want his goods.
"Since we can't talk about it, then I won't force it." Tong Chuxue got up and said to the others, "Let's go." ”
"Snow girl, let's go, that thing ......" Lin Chunyan was still a little hesitant.
"Mother, it's okay, Miss Tong must have her thoughts." Luo Hui'an persuaded.
Perhaps the impression that Tong Chuxue left on everyone on weekdays was extremely trustworthy, so although there was still a small muttering in everyone's hearts, they still followed Tong Chuxue's steps and left the Yao family.
Yao Zhongbao sat in his seat and watched several people leave.
"Dad, they're gone." Tong Yu'er, who had been eavesdropping in the back, walked out, "What about the things in our house." ”
"Don't worry, they'll be back." Yao Zhongbao is full of confidence.
Although Yao Zhongbao said so, Tong Yu'er inexplicably felt that Tong Chuxue would not come back, that girl has been very evil since the separation, and every time she encounters it, it will be no good thing.
Along the way, Xu Jinniang was worried, "Chu Xue, what can you do?" ”
There are many things that she can't let Xu Jinniang know, so she haha, "Don't we know Boss Cheng in the town, they are businessmen, and there are many people to deal with, maybe there is a way." ”
Xu Jinniang felt that it made sense, so she didn't ask again.
Only Luo Hui'an's eyes flashed, he knew better than anyone that Boss Cheng was a medical gymkeeper, how could he help find these farmhouse things, but he didn't demolish Tong Chuxue.
Tong Chuxue does have her own plans in her heart, in fact, she wants to buy cottonseed husks in order to take the Liu family and the Luo family to do it together, otherwise she can use the ability to do it in one step. Now the Yao family thinks that by buying all the cottonseed husks, they can force her to comply, but she is not as good as the other party wants.
And they all returned to their homes, each with their own thoughts.
Early the next morning, Tong Chuxue called the people in the third room and Liu Fen together, saying that they were going to take everyone to the back mountain for a trip, maybe there would be wild cotton.
"Snow girl, there has never been wild cotton in this back mountain, how can you find it." Luo Changhua was the first to disbelieve it, none of the people in their Qingshan Village grew up running in the back mountains, and he had never seen cotton grow in the back mountains.
"Even if there is, there can't be many." Liu Fen agreed with Luo Changhua's view.
Tong Chuxue also knew that it was a bit difficult to make everyone accept this setting, although it sounded a little unreliable, but it was better to go to the mountains to find cotton than to grow a piece of cotton overnight in front of them.
"Whether there is one on the mountain, in fact, we don't know exactly, and now we should try it if we have the opportunity." Luo Hui'an suddenly appeared, carrying a basket on his back, looking like he was about to leave for the mountains.
"Hui'an, I'll go with your father when you enter the mountain, so you don't have to go." Lin Chunyan didn't worry about his frail son doing all this hard work.
Tong Chuxue sighed silently, Luo Hui'an's body has become what it is today, Lin Chunyan is also responsible, she always detains the child at home and refuses to let him go out to exercise, how can her body be good.
"Mother, I'm fine, it's not a physical job to go up the mountain for a walk." Luo Hui'an persuaded.
"Okay, anyway, there's no other way now, let's use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, go up the mountain and have a look." Luo Changhua was persuaded by his son and said.
Just do it, and the group took their equipment to the back mountain.
Naturally leading the way in front was Tong Chuxue, she led everyone to turn left and right, and walked on the trail that no one had crossed.
After rounding a few woods, a gently sloping plot is revealed.
Xu Jinniang exclaimed, "So much cotton! ”
The flat ground in front of me is covered with half-human-tall cotton, and the white cotton balls sway slightly in the wind, and the jade snow is lovely.
"This cotton seems to be even better than what is grown at home." Lin Chunyan happily grabbed a few cotton balls, "I didn't expect there to really be cotton on the mountain." ”
Luo Changhua also observed it carefully and commented, "Wild cotton is indeed better than what is grown at home." ”
"If this is made into a quilt, it will definitely be warm." Xu Jinniang's face was happy.
Several people were attracted by the pleasing cotton and began to pick it. Fortunately, Luo Hui'an had the foresight to fill the basket with food and water in advance, so that they could work all day on the mountain.
When the sun set, Tong Chuxue came down from the mountain, and the basket behind him was full.
Occasionally, I met a few villagers to ask, Xu Jinniang did not shy away from telling the other party that it was wild cotton picked on the mountain, and the villagers were amazed when they heard it, they had lived in Qingshan Village for decades, and had never seen cotton on the back mountain.
Also on the road was Tong Yu'er, who had come out to wash clothes, but now she had washed her clothes and was about to go back, but she saw Tong Chuxue and her party from a distance. When she saw the cotton in their baskets, she was taken aback and ran home quickly.
As soon as Tong Yu'er entered the door, she rushed to Yao Zhongbao's house, "Dad, I'm afraid your cottonseed husk won't be sold." ”
"What?" Yao Zhongbao was startled and immediately jumped up from his chair.
Subsequently, Tong Yuer told Yao Zhongbao what she saw on the road.
Later, whether Yao Zhongbao was angry or hateful, it was no longer Tong Chuxue's business, she was now busy leading everyone to clean up the cotton picked back.
In fact, after a busy day of work in the mountains today, everyone's body is very tired, but the spirit is very good, and the work is extremely hard, and I can't wait to sleep all night.
Tong Chuxue yawned while picking cotton, her eyes were half-squinted, and she looked sleepy. Xu Jinniang couldn't stand it anymore, "Chuxue, if you are sleepy, go to sleep first." ”
Since Xu Jinniang said so, Tong Chuxue would not be polite, after all, she was really sleepy. She didn't sleep last night just to grow the cotton on the mountain, and now she was exhausted, and she felt that the wood abilities in her body seemed to be running out, and she desperately needed a good rest to repair her abilities.
Outside the house, Luo Hui'an looked at Tong Chuxue's house, and his face couldn't hide his worry.
