Chapter Twenty-Seven: Buying Cattle and Land
Riding the big yellow cow leisurely, Dredging returned to Mochizuki Village.
"Miss, you're back!"
Steward Li's little daughter, Siya, saw her young lady riding a big ox back, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"My dad is dying."
"It's Siya! You and your father are just too worried, I'm a big living person, and I'm afraid of losing it, go! Let's go home. Shutong sat down and waved his hand.
When the villagers saw Zhang Xiaoyue riding a ox back, they ran over one by one in shock and envy.
The last time the spicy woman stood on Shutong's side, she felt that she was already on her side.
Said familiarly: "Oh, Xiaoyue, this is the cow you bought?" ”
"Oh, Aunt Wang! I just bought it, right? "Shutong's memory is good.
Hearing this, the woman was even more proud, and said with a smile: "Oh, I said that the eldest niece, you really have a good eye, and this cow is very strong at a glance!" But you don't have any land at home, what are you going to do when you get a cow back? ”
Shu Tong was stunned, "What does buying cattle have to do with land?" ”
Aunt Wang said in her heart, is this child stupid?
"Our farmers naturally buy cattle for arable land! Alas, if you want me to say that your father also bought 30 acres of paddy fields back then. It's a pity that all those fields have been occupied, otherwise you would have come in handy. ”
Shu Tong thought about it, and remembered that the paddy field purchased by the original owner and his father had been occupied by the Wang family.
smiled, "I don't plan to farm either, this cow is bought to ride and play." ”
What, riding to play? The people who eat melons are dumbfounded.
Li Han squeezed out of the crowd, "Oh, my miss, where did you go?" ”
Shutong jumped off the cow's back and patted the big scalper on the head. "Go! From now on, you'll be in his hands! ”
Li Han took the reins of the scalper with affection, "Such a good cow must not be cheap." ”
"Alas! Miss asked me to say something, let's not live like this, besides, our family doesn't have land now, isn't it a waste to buy cattle early? ”
Knowing that he shouldn't talk too much about the affairs of the master's family, Li Han still couldn't help but nag a few words.
"Do you have to buy land?" Shu Tong muttered.
That's right, Li Han's eyes lit up, buy more land to have income, and Miss can marry a good family in the future with more dowry!
"Miss, if you have spare money in your hand, why don't we all use it to buy land!"
Shu Tong indifferently took out his purse from his arms and threw it into his hands.
"Okay, you can do it!"
In front of the crowd, Li Han didn't check how much silver there was, and hurriedly stuffed it into his arms, leading the big scalper to lead the way in front.
"Miss, I'm ready with the ingredients and the chef, and I'll be ready to treat you at any time."
"Oh!" Shu Tong patted his head, and he actually forgot about the matter of inviting guests to dinner.
Turning back to the crowd and smiling brightly, "Folks, my new house has been built, please eat, let's set it for tomorrow, everyone must remember to come." ”
Of course, everyone was very happy to be invited to dinner, and immediately agreed.
"Satsuki, congratulations! Aunts will come over early tomorrow morning to help! Aunt Wang said immediately.
"Okay!"
Shu Tong looked at Li Han, and Li Han hurriedly replied: "The tables, chairs and benches have all been borrowed, and all kinds of ingredients have been prepared, even the chef you said has made a decision." Rest assured! ”
Waving goodbye to the villagers, Shutong returned to his home.
"Miss, are you hungry? I'm going to cook! Siya was a little shy, but her hands and feet were diligent, and she prepared a face wash and brought it to Shutong.
"Let's eat!"
Look at this little girl who is shorter than herself, "What will you do?" ”
Siya's face flushed, "I'll make some home-cooked food, miss, if you don't dislike it, I'll get it for you now." ”
"Okay!" Shutong wants to see the little girl in ancient times, what will she do? "But you have to get more, I have a lot of food."
"Okay!" Siya ran directly to the kitchen excitedly.
Li Han is indeed a qualified housekeeper, and the ingredients for rice and noodles have been prepared in the kitchen.
Seeing that the youngest daughter was about to cook, he hurriedly took out bacon and salted dried fish.
"Siya, you must be attentive and make more delicious food for Miss!"
"I made a note of it."
After explaining his daughter, Li Han ran to the backyard again, and the big scalper was still tied to the tree!
Fortunately, the yard of Shutong's house was big enough, so he pulled some fresh grass and fed it.
Thinking about finding someone to build a cowshed, it just so happened that his son was almost fine, so he would let him herd the cattle in the future.
Shutong washed up and remembered that there was still a basket of black bear meat in the carry-on space.
"Siya, will you make meat?" Shutong threw a piece of meat on the board.
Siya was startled, what a big piece of meat, where did the young lady get it!
Hurriedly took it, "Miss, what kind of meat is this?" "It doesn't look like pork, and she's afraid she's going to make it bad.
"Oh, it's black bear meat!"
"Huh? Miss, I haven't done it! Siya was so frightened that she almost dropped the meat to the ground!
Li Han was also shocked when he came in, "Black bear meat, Miss, where did you get it?" ”
Shu Tong glanced at him, "Of course I hunted in the python mountain." ”
"Miss, it's too dangerous in that mountain, how can you deal with a big black bear by yourself, if it's injured? How's that going? ”
Li Han's mother-in-law made Shu Tong impatient, "Isn't it that I have nothing to do?" ”
Li Han saw that Miss was unhappy, so he hurriedly changed the topic, "Miss, Siya can't do it, or keep the meat first, and wait for the chef to come tomorrow to see if he can!" ”
"That's fine! I still have a lot of meat, and bear's paws, I want to eat it too! ”
"Where you put it, don't be stolen!" Li Han was worried.
"It's ......!" Shutong was just about to say and stopped, there is such a thing as a portable space, no matter where you go, you can't easily find it.
Annoyed by his momentary negligence, he smiled and said, "I have put the bear's paws and meat in the hut in the mountains, and I will bring them again when I go back." The chef I'm bringing in tomorrow should be able to make bear's paws, right? ”
Li Han knew that this master was not simple, so he didn't ask anymore, "I'll go to the cook's house in the afternoon to ask, if not, I'll change someone who can make bear's paws!" ”
The dredging is complete.
The four girls are very quick with their hands and feet, and they quickly prepare the meal.
The young lady is different from them and should eat something good.
She steamed a large pot of white rice, steamed salted fish and fried bacon, accompanied by freshly picked fruits and vegetables in the field. I made a sumptuous table.
Dredging Tong is overjoyed.
"It looks good! Four! I don't see you still have this craft, come! Let's sit down and eat. ”
Li Han's father and daughter waved their hands again and again, "Miss, you eat by yourself, we have already eaten." ”
Shutong didn't know how polite he was, so he sat down and picked up the chopsticks and ate.
The home-cooked meal also tastes superb. These days, she is tired of eating barbecue and grilled fish, and it is not bad to have some light vegetables, and salted fish and bacon are also quite suitable for her appetite.
Shutong let go of his belly and ate violently, sweeping away a table of food.
Li Han knew that the young lady had a big appetite, and he was also taken aback. Siya was dumbfounded, secretly worried that the young lady would not be able to stand it.
Secretly glanced at her several times before pulling the corner of his father's clothes and asked, "Dad, should I make some food tea for Miss?" ”
Li Han nodded hurriedly, "Okay, you go and prepare first." ”
Li Han remembered the purse in his arms, and hurriedly took it out and opened it. Seventy or eighty taels of silver, "Miss, all this silver is obtained from selling game?" ”
With so much silver, how many beasts do you have to catch?
Shutong was full of wine and food, and sat there lazily, "I found ginseng in the mountains and sold it." ”
Ginseng! Li Han's eyes lit up, Miss's luck was really good!
"Miss, although it is easy to get money in the mountains, it is also dangerous, so let's go less in the future!" Can't help but nag.
Shu Tong waved his hand, "Okay, I know in my heart, if you're okay, go back." ”
Li Han knew that she didn't listen to persuasion, so he sighed secretly, and said, "Miss, you don't need this silver?" Let's all go and buy a field! ”
"You can do these things yourself, don't bother me."
Shu Tong saw Siya bring another big teapot, took it unceremoniously, drank the diet tea, and then patted his stomach and went back to sleep satisfied.
