CHAPTER XLIII
The next day, the family set off for the fields. Even the youngest Shen Baoran came along.
Wen Qiaohan and Shen Xinran have always been at odds, so they followed her to learn by ride, one had the heart to teach, the other had the heart to learn, and they got along well.
The strength of the people is great, it is a day's work, and it only takes one morning to complete, and the group of people is mighty and return home, which arouses the jealousy and hatred of the villagers.
After completing the Shen family, those who met familiar people also took the initiative to help, and most of the people who returned to the Shen family one after another were missing. Shen Mengshi just wanted to cook. "So fast, I've just washed rice."
"There are a lot of people, and more than half of them go with one plant. It's okay, let's sit down and rest first, and wait for the meal to begin. "Shen Youfu has always been in charge of the field work, and he was worried about the mistake of the field, but he didn't expect that the nobles who came to study would go to the field to help, and it was completed beyond imagination.
"Dad, it's not okay to go on like this, our family also has to consider hiring long-term workers, or wait for the workshop to start working, you are the only one, and you can't take care of it."
Shen Youfu was a little hesitant, hiring a long-term worker is another expense, but if you don't hire a person, you really can't take care of it, "Don't work harder......"
"Dad, our family will get better and better in the future, if you happen to have a suitable field, and give up because of the lack of manpower, or say that our family will not sell the field in the future, that's it." Shen Xinran interrupted Shen Youfu.
"Then please." Shen Youfu thought about it, and it was reasonable to hear his daughter's tone that there would be more and more fields.
"In the afternoon, please take care of Steward Zhang, you will accompany my father, we are not very good at inviting people."
"It's nothing, but Miss Shen, don't you think about adding a few more people now?"
"No, I'll talk about it when the house is built, oh, and I have trouble you to find a money foreman and a contractor, just say that the Shen family in Yishan Village can build a house and a workshop, the wages are the same, and they are still responsible for the materials."
"Okay." Uncle Wen handed over to Steward Zhang, and he readily agreed to the matter by the way.
"Mother," Shen Xinran called Shen Wu, who was setting up the dishes and chopsticks and returning to the kitchen, "Why don't you and the third aunt go to the town to buy something in the afternoon, we will go to grandpa tomorrow to help, I don't know if they have finished it." ”
"Hmm." A flash of joy flashed in Shen Wu's eyes, and he responded calmly again, and then turned back to the kitchen and hurried in and out.
In the afternoon, it was time to go to the town, and those who wanted to rest rested, and those who did not rest collectively copied the confidentiality agreement in the courtyard of Shen.
The next day, the big house and the three rooms set off for one person and one ox cart to their respective homes, leaving only the lonely Shen Mengshi in a daze at home, or he would sit quietly at the entrance of the village. Like an outsider watching people come and go.
Wen Qiaohan also took advantage of the fact that it was okay, and a group of people set off to the town as if they were playing in the mountains and rivers. A single group of men, walking in the town is like a unique landscape.
Wen Qiaohan walked in the middle, with red lips and white teeth, like a young man who was dropping fairies, and along the way he led the girls to secretly promise and be full of affection.
If Shen Xinran is here, he will sigh, the son is like jade, the spring flowers are blooming, and the bees attract butterflies.
As soon as Shen Xinran's family arrived at the entrance of the village, the villagers greeted each other enthusiastically, and the ox cart also stopped.
"Oh, this is not Wu Laohan Nuxu, how kind of heart is this, dragging the family to come over to help, and this car of things, even the family has moved." The neighbor's mouth was full of sour taste.
"It's not important to get married, it's important to be born, you see, these two babies are smart and capable, and the younger ones are liked, like a New Year's doll." Neighbor B is not far behind.
"I have known since I was a child that our Wu Xiaomei is a blessed person, you are right." Neighbor C was unanimously recognized. "Even the prime minister is blessed."
"That is? It's just that I haven't looked back at my father and mother for a long time, no, I put some food for my father and mother. Shen Wu was modest, but he was very useful in his heart. In the past, when I was poor, I was inevitably sneered at when I saw it, so now Shen Wu enjoys this kind of time when he is complimented.
"This little sister is really a person of filial piety, Wu Laohan is also blessed, and the little sister is really a person of a prosperous family."
"Sister, brother-in-law, why are you here, they said that we still don't believe you when you come." Wu immediately ran over to say hello.
"Uncle." The sisters greeted each other nicely.
"Well, let's go home first, it's so early, it's very early. Everyone, please let go, disperse, don't worry about the cabinet. Wu Li sleekly cleared the way for them.
The sisters kept smiling, and it was uncomfortable to be watched as animals.
"Uncle, it's good that you're here, and your mouth is stiff." Shen Xinran complained, and rubbed his face exaggeratedly.
"Just leave them alone, drink water first." Wu Li poured water for everyone.
"Sister Li, what about them." Shen Baoran asked with big eyes flashing. Sister Li's uncle's daughter.
"She took her siblings to dig for herbs. I'll be back later. ”
"Little brother, let's not waste time, how much work is left." Shen Youfu just wanted to work, and he didn't want to waste time nagging here.
Wu Li touched his head embarrassedly, "There are still more than four acres, and after the beginning of spring, my father asked someone to inquire about the good land, so I gave my father four more acres of good land." ”
"That's a good thing. How nice the fields are. Then let's stop talking, lock the door and leave," Shen Youfu is an anxious person in terms of the field.
followed Wu Li to the field, and the villagers came over to talk to him under an excuse for a while, but the progress was slow, and they couldn't hear it even if they were driving people out of the dark.
and Wu Li hurried over with her younger siblings to dig herbs, and the eldest concubine took the opportunity to let her take Shen Xinran and the two home to cook, "Lili, take your eldest cousin back, and I'm going to cook too." Seeing that they were far away, everyone slowly dispersed.
The protagonists are gone, and everyone still wants to have a relationship with Shen Youfu, but he is a stunned young man, immersed in his work, and occasionally says a few words to Wu Laohan, and Weng and his son-in-law are very happy. A few words of compliment Shen Wu and left. Shen Wu watched them walk away, and he was also lost, why didn't he say more.
"I didn't expect my cousin to come at this time." Wu Li said happily.
"The work at home is done, come and see if there is anything you want to help with, why don't you welcome me." Shen Xinran said with the herbs.
"No, it's too late for me to be happy when you guys come." Wu Li hurriedly assured.
"Tease you, you dug it up in the morning." Shen Xinran looked at the herbs in his hand. Dig very carefully and there is no damage. I can see that I also put my heart into it.
"Well, I couldn't help in the field, so I had to dig herbs with my friends. I'll be back when I'm about to cook. Wu Li said sensibly.
Shen Baoran on the side has already played with other children, like a wild horse that has come out of the stiffness, running around, happy and worry-free, and being happy at this age is the most important thing.
"My mother brought a lot of delicious sweets and fragrant osmanthus cakes." Shen Baoran was showing off.
"Are the sweets sweet?" A child swallowed saliva and asked, that can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year.
"Is the osmanthus cake made of osmanthus flowers?"
"Yes, it's delicious, fragrant, and I drool when I think about it." Shen Baoran sucked hard nostalgically, causing waves of saliva to rise and fall.
"You've got my cousin." As an elder brother, Wu Xue stepped forward to protect his sister.
