Chapter 100: Don't forget your roots
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lin Han looked at the craftsmen who were busy and was a little surprised.
"Is our house going to be so big?"
Lin Ruan nodded, "That's just enough." ”
Lin Han won't argue with Lin Ruan anymore, what Lin Ruan says is what it is.
Putting the bookcase back in the shed and saying hello to Aunt Zhou again, Lin Han walked around the yard, as if he was looking for something.
"What are you looking for?"
Lin Han turned around and asked her, "Where's your maid?" ”
Lin Ruan shook his head, "I don't have a ring, I don't need it." ”
She doesn't like to be around people all the time.
Lin Han pursed his lips, "Xiuxiu has it all, why can't you buy one yourself?" ”
"Doesn't it cost you anything to buy one? Don't you eat or drink when you buy it? I don't have much to do at home, so what am I buying so many rings for? Xiuxiu is still young, so she can buy a girl ring to be her companion. When you go to school, you have a scholar to help you run errands, which can save you a lot of things and allow you to do your studies with peace of mind. I don't need a playmate, I don't need someone to run errands, what do I want Yahuan to do? Besides, I have so many things to do all day, and it's too much of a hindrance to bring a maid ring around. ”
Originally, Lin Ruan meant that she didn't need Yahuan to follow her to get in the way, but Lin Han interpreted it to mean something else.
He believes that Lin Ruan gave him and Xiuxiu the best conditions.
Suddenly, Lin Han's heart was sour.
At noon, Lin Ruan handed it over to Aunt Zhou to arrange, and she took Lin Han, Xiuxiu and Liu Ya, carried a hoe, and carried wheat seeds to the field.
Although she no longer expects the production in this land now, since their Lin family is a farmer, this kind of land matter naturally cannot be left behind.
She wants to use farming to teach Lin Han and Xiuxiu a truth: you can't forget your roots.
The ground has been ploughed out a few days ago, raked thin and soft, before plowing, Uncle Zhou took a few loads of good fertilizer into the field, and dried it for so many days, which is suitable for sowing.
Lin Ruan followed the sowing picture in the memory of the original owner, and took a hoe to dig out a dragon about half a finger deep on the ground.
Lin Han carried the wheat seeds and followed behind to plant seeds in Longli.
Wheat needs to leave a gap like bud rice, you just need to control the number of seeds and keep sowing forward.
Xiuxiu followed behind, plucking the soil with her feet and burying the seeds.
Liu Ya looked at it for a while, and then said to Lin Han: "Son, the slave maid will come and plant wheat." ”
Lin Han glanced up at her, "Will you?" ”
"The slave just watched it for a while, it should be okay."
Lin Han thought about it, then handed her the wheat seed, let Xiuxiu go aside to play, and took over Xiuxiu's work by himself.
Liu Ya carried the bag in one hand and the wheat seeds in the other, and sprinkled them evenly in Longli, much more evenly than Lin Han's.
Lin Ruan saw it and praised it: "It's still the girl's family who is careful." ”
Liu Ya pursed the corners of her mouth and laughed: "Miss Xie praises." ”
Before she came yesterday, she had been very worried in her heart, because she didn't know the temperament of the eldest girl, and she didn't know anything about the situation in the eldest girl's family, and she was afraid that the people in the eldest girl's family would not get along well.
As a result, after coming here, I realized that my previous worries were unnecessary.
Although the eldest girl looks a little cold, she is actually very generous to people, especially to her family, which is really good.
She grew up in the mansion when she was a child, and although she was the child of a descendant, she never did any ancestral work.
Originally, if there was no accident, she would have been arranged to serve the girl of the original master's family, so the elementary school was about how to serve those daughters, and she didn't know anything about the things in the countryside and fields.
But the eldest girl didn't dislike her, she was willing to let her learn slowly, and she wouldn't punish her for learning slowly, which made her feel at ease.
As for the second girl, she liked it even more.
She has been hoping to have a sister since she was a child, but unfortunately after her mother gave birth to her younger brother, her health was not very good, and her desire for a sister became empty.
I didn't expect to come here and meet the second girl.
Although the second girl is the master and she is the servant, the appearance of the second girl is exactly what she imagined her sister to be. Innocent, sensible and well-behaved, she really wants to be closer to her.
Liu Ya looked back at Xiuxiu who was following them, then at Lin Ruan in front of her, and then thought about the mother who might have been sick, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more obvious.
She will definitely serve the eldest girl and the second girl well and repay their kindness.
Two acres is not big, but it is not small, and Lin Ruan and the three of them have been busy until the sun goes down.
When I returned to the old mansion, the craftsmen were all gone.
Aunt Zhou cooked dinner, and the Zhou family and Lin Zhong also came back separately.
The two families together, more than a dozen people, had a lively dinner, and went to sleep separately.
Lin Han was left in the old mansion by Lin Ruan and slept with Lin Zhong.
took Xiuxiu and Liu Ya to Lin Zhong's yard, and let Liu Ya coax Xiuxiu to sleep, while Lin Ruan took out the paper he brought over, and went to the stove room to find a few half-burned branches to use as charcoal, and began to write and draw on the table.
She was going to draw the layout of the store's kitchen.
When he finished painting, his right hand was pitch black, and he washed his hands twice before blowing the lamp and falling asleep.
Before dawn the next morning, Lin Ruan took Lin Han, Xiuxiu and Liu Ya to the county together.
Lin Han only has one day off, so he has to go back to class today.
Lin Ruan took him to the store first, asked him to recognize the door, and by the way, let the people in the store recognize him.
Seeing such a group of people respectfully shouting at him, Lin Han's face burned for a while.
Because he was in a hurry to go to school, Lin Ruan didn't let Lin Han stay longer, but only let Lin Xiaobao, a kid from Lin Yiping's family, come over to meet Lin Han, and let Lin Han hurry to school.
Seeing Lin Han away, Lin Ruan said to Lin Fu: "Uncle Fu, Akan didn't eat well in school, you asked someone to cook a meal at noon, send it to him, and take Xiaobao with him, and the store will be busy in the future, and the matter of delivering food will have to be handed over to Xiaobao to do." ”
This place is not too far from Lin Han's private school, so it is convenient for Xiaobao to deliver his own meals.
Lin Fu responded and took out an account book and sent it to Lin Ruan.
"Big girl, this is the account of the past two days, you can take a look."
Lin Ruan took it and flipped through it, and saw that which sum of money was used for what was clearly written, so he nodded and responded: "I remember well, but some of it is too complicated, I will be free to teach you a simple method." ”
Although Lin Fu was very surprised, he nodded respectfully.
"The second girl is playing in the store today, you take care of her, don't let her run around. In addition, there are ten taels of silver here, so you can find a few craftsmen and build a large kitchen here. ”
As he spoke, Lin Ruan took out a drawing from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Fu.
"I drew the exact dimensions and construction, and you asked the craftsman to follow the cover. I still have something to do, I'm going out for a day today, if I haven't come back before dark, I'll trouble Uncle Fu to send Xiuxiu and Liu Ya back first. ”
Lin Fu responded, and after sending Lin Ruan away, he opened the drawing, and his face was full of surprise.
I saw that the drawings clearly drew the size and style of the house, as well as the internal structure.
Is this really the hand of a country girl?
