Guo couldn't help nodding his head with concern.

"That's not the reason, I also persuaded him before, but he didn't listen, saying that he wanted to go up the mountain to try his luck and earn some silver for the New Year. Today, I heard him talk about the things in the mountains, and I said nothing from now on that I won't ask him to go up the mountain again. Compared to him, what is that bit of silver? ”

Aunt Zhou nodded again and again: "That's the reason, we want to make money, there are many ways, and we can't take that risk." ”

Guo wiped his eyes, took the meat from Lin Youyu's hand, and sent it to Lin Ruan with the basket.

"Sister Ruan, thanks to you today, nothing happened to me in charge. These things are a little bit of a heart for the two of them, and you must accept them. ”

Lin Ruan didn't refuse, and accepted it generously.

"Sister-in-law, you sit in the courtyard for a while, it's just that the meal is almost ready, just eat here and then go back."

Guo couldn't stop waving his hand: "What's so embarrassing, our family's meal is almost ready, let's go home and eat." ”

"What's embarrassing, it's all my family, just having a meal. Stay, I'll let Akan come to my house and tell them not to wait for you. ”

As he spoke, he instructed Lin Han to go to Lin Youyu's house to bring a letter.

Although Lin Han was still messing with Lin Ruan, he was still quite measured in front of people, and he moved as soon as Lin Ruan shouted.

Lin Youyu and his family didn't stop Lin Han, so they had to agree to stay and eat.

At the dinner table, Uncle Zhou and Lin Zhong heard about today's incident in the mountains, and they were also afraid and happy for a while.

Uncle Zhou took a sip of wine, smacked his lips and said, "Yu, don't go to the mountains in the future." It's too dangerous in the mountains, if you really want to make money, go to the county to find a short-term job, although you don't earn much in a month, but it's better than safety, and it's more or less an entry. ”

Lin Youyu nodded: "What Uncle said is that I won't go up the mountain in the future." I plan to take advantage of the cold weather to use the silver I earned in the mountains in the past few days to buy some chicken and duck seedlings and raise them back, and when I rush to the root of the year, I can also sell some silver. ”

As soon as Lin Ruan heard this, he immediately asked, "Brother Yu, are you planning to raise chickens and ducks?" Now that it's the Chinese New Year, it's only been three months, will this chicken and duck have time to grow up? ”

Lin Youyu glanced at his daughter-in-law and said with a smile: "The child knows how to raise chickens and ducks well, and three months is enough to raise and fatten." ”

Lin Ruan smiled, this is really sleepy, so someone will send a pillow.

"Brother Yu, sister-in-law, I have something I want to discuss with you."

Lin Youyu hurriedly said: "Sister Ruan has something to say. ”

"Brother Yu, sister-in-law, to tell you the truth, I just bought a piece of land with Li Zheng, which is the vacant land on the bend of the river. I'm going to build a chicken and duck coop there and raise a large number of chickens and ducks. But I don't know how to serve these fowl, and I'm worried that I can't find anyone who knows how to do it. I just heard Brother Yu say that my sister-in-law understands this, so I thought, please ask your husband and wife to raise chickens and ducks for me, and I will pay you husband and wife one or two pieces of silver every month, do you think? ”

"What? A tael of silver?! ”

Lin Youyu and his wife were excited, one or two silver, this is not a small amount. At the end of the year, it was twelve taels, which was more than what they earned for a year's hard work.

Lin Ruan smiled and nodded: "Yes, one or two silver, but this silver is not so easy to earn." Because I have a large number of chickens and ducks, you have to make sure that the chickens and ducks do not get sick and grow quickly. Your land can be planted, and I will also collect all the grain that will be harvested in the future to raise chickens and ducks. You can go home and discuss it first, and if you wish, come and talk back to me. ”

Lin Youyu said excitedly: "No need to discuss, we are willing." ”

Guo Shi also nodded desperately.

It's much better than letting her man go up to the mountains to hunt. Raising chickens and ducks is her strength, although she has not raised a large number of them, but she can put a sheep is put, and a group of sheep is also put, and raising chickens and ducks is also a reason.

Lin Ruan said with a smile: "Okay, let's just say it, in a few days, when the chicken and duck shed is built, we will start hatching chicken and duck seedlings." In addition, there is another thing I want to ask you, that is, the eggs of this hatching chicken and duck seedlings, and I have to trouble you to go to the villages and bring a letter, saying that I collect a large number of eggs here, and also collect chicken and duck seedlings. ”

Lin Youyu couldn't help nodding: "Cheng, I'll go to various villages tomorrow to release letters." ”

And so it was settled, and the people began to eat and drink again with great joy.

Only Lin Zhong looked at Lin Ruan, and stopped talking.

At night, Lin Zhong and Lin Han were lying on the bed with Xiaobao, and Lin Han was just about to fall asleep, when he heard Lin Zhong on the other side of his feet sigh faintly.

"What's wrong Daddy?"

"Akan, you haven't slept yet?"

"No, Dad, what's wrong with you? Can't sleep? ”

Lin Han got up and sat down, the shed was so dark that he couldn't see his five fingers, and he couldn't see Lin Zhong's face.

Lin Zhong sighed again in the dark: "Akan, do you say that Ah Ruan has a prejudice against me?" ”

"Dad, you've drunk too much?"

"I didn't drink much, I told her before, after the livestock shed was built, I went to raise chickens and ducks for her, and she asked more than two to raise them at that time. She would rather pay someone else to do things than let me go...... I don't even think about it. ”

Lin Han couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Dad, think for yourself why? You raise chickens and ducks for her, and the milk, big house, and second room are still unhappy and crazy. When the time comes, whether you will raise chickens and ducks for Ah Ruan, or raise them will be two words. Ah Ruan is right not to let you raise them, let you raise them, it's a trivial matter for chickens and ducks to be taken away, and if you don't do it, you have to cause a lot of trouble. Dad, you can just keep your few acres in peace, and you don't care about Ah Ruan's affairs. ”

Lin Zhong couldn't say a word when he said this, and after a while, he had to sigh again depressedly.

Three or four days passed.

Wheat sowing is nearing completion.

In Linjia Village, except for a few families with many fields or slow people who are still busy working in the fields, most of the villagers are idle.

Lin Zhong remembered the confession of his children, went out early and returned late every day, and grinded foreign workers in the old Wang's field.

Lin Lao Da and Lin Lao Er have been nesting at home, and seeing that Lin Zhong has not come to see Li to beg for wheat seeds, they can't help but murmur a little in their hearts.

It's been a few days, and it's supposed to be time to sow seeds.

"Big brother, the two of us and my mother's land together is a lot, can the third child do it alone? In the past, the third child had children to help with things, but this year he is the only one. If you can't get busy, you can't delay? ”

Boss Lin couldn't sit still when he heard him say this, "Then let's go to the field and take a look, no matter how slow he does it alone, at least he can plow the ground." ”

As soon as the two brothers had consulted, they went to the field.

Then he was dumbfounded.

This place is exactly the same as it was more than half a month ago, and the ground is still littered with leaky bud stalks.

The surrounding land has already been planted with wheat, and some families have planted early, and the wheat seedlings in the field have already grown.

The two of them were so anxious that they jumped to their feet and ran around looking for Lin Zhong.

Finally, he was found in the old Wang's field.
