Chapter 85: Retribution Is Coming (Recommended Plus Update)
After harvesting the thorny old buds, Mingdi really took Xie and Zheng Caixia to the county as Mingyue said, and Mingyue went with them, she was going to the county to hand over fish fry, shrimp seed, lotus root seeds, fruit trees, and possible crab seedlings to Sun Yaren.
As for the rest of the Ming family, the old man Ming and Mingtang were busy with the hired short-term workers in Wulitun for spring ploughing, and the ladies of the Ming family were busy preparing three meals a day for everyone.
During this period, Mingyue took the people who came to send fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry, and lotus root seeds back to Wulitun, and the old man Ming sent Mingtang to help Mingyue take care of the pond.
Five days later, Mingtang finally lived up to Mingyue's expectations, and the people who came to deliver fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry, and lotus root seeds learned to take care of the pond independently.
Mingyue then paid the other party ten taels of silver in addition to the balance of fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry, and lotus root seeds, and thanked the other party for teaching the "secret" to the Ming family.
The two young men who sent fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry, and lotus root seeds were overjoyed, and made an appointment with Mingyue to send fish fry, shrimp fry, crab fry and lotus root seeds to her family next year, and the two of them drove their own cart back to the next county.
"I said that the eldest niece, you are really good, and you can set out the skill of other people's meals for ten taels of silver." After the two left, Mingtang looked at Mingyue with admiration.
Mingyue glanced at him with a smile, "Third uncle, can you not be so naΓ―ve?" If this is really someone's craft of eating, do you think they will really sell it to us so cheaply? β
Mingtang was stunned, "But they didn't say..."
"You said it too, they said it. If they don't make an expression of cutting flesh and bloodletting, can our family give them ten taels of silver in one go? β
Mingtang was speechless.
Mingyue continued: "Do you see if they tell us, how to keep seeds for lotus roots, how to breed fish fry, shrimp fry, and crab fry? Didn't you? This is the craft of eating. β
"As for how to raise fish, shrimp and crab roots, we have learned and made money, so we must continue to buy his fish, shrimp and crab seedlings and lotus root seeds in the future? It's a long-term business. β
"And then there is, when our family's fish, shrimp and crab lotus make money, our village, our ten miles and eight villages, but if there are those who want to follow the trend, who can not buy fish, shrimp, crab seedlings and lotus root seeds? At that time, these two people will be able to make a few more big profits. Otherwise, why do you think they have to go to our village to wander around as long as they are free? β
Mingtang opened his mouth, and it took him a while before he rubbed his eyebrows and complained, "You say that you people, why can't you use up so much?" It's just such a small thing, you can see how many detours you have made. β
Mingyue couldn't help laughing, "So third uncle, you have to learn a little too, but don't let people have to ask for food one day." β
Mingtang stretched out his hand and poked Mingyue's forehead, "You just have a crow's mouth, and you're not afraid of what happens!" β
Mingyue smiled but did not speak.
Mingtang couldn't help but be worried, "Then according to what you say, aren't we going to buy all the river beach land in this village?" β
Mingyue shook her head, "Let's not buy it." However, we can advise relatives and friends to buy a piece in advance. β
Mingtang had some flesh pain, "What's the matter?" Are you going to be a rich virgin again? β
Mingyue put away her smile and looked at Mingtang with a serious face, "Third uncle, money will never be earned." We can't go all the way and let others have no way out, so that our Ming family will become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of others. Since we live in this land, we must let the vast majority of the people in this land become rich with us. β
Mingtang scratched his head, "Isn't this what the second brother said, 'There is a lot of help for the righteous, and little help for the unjust', I understand everything, but it is not contradictory to understand it and feel distressed." β
Mingyue was amused by him, "It's really not contradictory." β
Mingtang suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and the uncle and nephew talked and laughed all the way back to their home.

"For you." On the night when Mingyue returned to the county seat from Wulitun, Yu Jiayan quietly stuffed a thin silver bracelet engraved with a lotus pattern for Mingyue, so frightened that Mingyue almost threw the bracelet into the flowers.
"Where did it come from?"
"I secretly bought it two days ago." Yu Jiayan smiled, "I used the money I got from copying the book." When I have more money, I'll buy you a better bracelet. β
Mingyue squinted at him, "You don't study hard, what are you thinking about all day long?" β
"How can this be called speculation? You're my fiancΓ©e. "Yu Jiayan is fifteen years old, and he has eaten and dressed well in the Ming family all these years, and he looks taller than the seventeen-year-old Mingyue.
Mingyue was speechless for a while, "Don't you know why I married you in the first place?" β
Yu Jiayan's smile did not change, "Then you are also married to me." β
Moon:......
Retribution is coming, is it too late for her to regret it now?
"You go to bed early, I'll go to the study first." Leaving Mingyue, who was speechless, Yu Jiayan went to the study in a good mood to write the homework assigned by Mr. Ming Xu today.
Mingyue pinched the bracelet and was stunned for a long time, and the breeze of early spring made her heart feel chaotic.
has been with Yu Jiayan for so many years, Mingyue actually likes this Sven boy with a little black belly, but her liking is not the same as Yu Jiayan's liking for her.
If Yu Jiayan hadn't given her a bracelet today, she wouldn't have known that this child was still thinking about the so-called marriage contract between them.
She was still thinking about it, and when Yu Jiayan was admitted to Xiucai, she would break off the marriage contract with him, so that Mrs. Ming and the others could choose a suitable candidate for him to marry.
As for herself, she originally wanted to wait until she met the right person before getting married, but after so many years, she has never been able to meet the person who makes her heart move.
Thinking about Mingyue, I can't help but want to beat my chest, people and other girls cross, and there must be a male No. 2, male No. 3 or something, but she is good, after so many years, the young men around her are either his own brothers or cousins, cousins and Yu Jiayan, the rightful fiancΓ©.
Could it be that the strange trait of "no man's fate" in her previous life also followed her to ancient times? Otherwise, why didn't she meet any promising young people who were suitable for marriage?
Does she really want to be like Yu Jiayan said, wait for Yu Jiayan to be old enough to obediently marry him?
For the first time since coming to ancient times, Mingyue had insomnia.
She tossed and turned on the bed and burned it. The cakes of the night did not close their eyes until the sky turned white.
With dark circles under her eyes, she made breakfast for Ming Xu, and Mingyue herself took a big bowl with blue edges and began to eat noodles absentmindedly.
The green cabbage, the croquettes that are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the poached eggs with oily flowers, and the noodles with sorghum noodles and white noodles, Mingyue will throw away her happiness and eat it with relish after a while.
Well, she's a bit heartless.
