Chapter 226: I owe him a daughter-in-law

After the Chen family left, Lu Jiu looked at the remaining three big girls, all of whom were about fifteen years old, and they worked for her just to earn dowry money.

"It's a very simple job, as long as you are careful, you won't go wrong." Lu Jiu demonstrated with them, and his voice was very gentle: "Just apply this thing evenly on the black cloth, pay attention to the strength, and ...... in one direction."

This kind of work is very simple, even boring, and not challenging at all.

The three of them quickly got up to speed and did a good job, but they still needed a lot of practice.

Lu Jiu was not idle, but went to extract silica, and then blended silica into white paint.

At the beginning, a small house was built next to the vegetable greenhouse, but now no one lives in it and serves as a warehouse.

There were newly bought farm tools in the storeroom, as well as some seeds.

Lu Jiu also made a very complicated big lock, and only the brother and sister had the key.

Now the first thing to do is to weed, then smash the clods of soil, dig a pit and apply fertilizer, and then start moving the seedlings.

The vegetable seed Lu Jiu had already given to Lu Sidong.

First of all, we need to clean up a piece of land to plant vegetable seedlings.

The fertilizer in ancient times was all farmhouse fertilizer, and the Lu family's fertilizer was only enough for his own use, so this fertilizer was bought by Lu Jiu from elsewhere.

In the morning, several people cleaned up a piece of land and used it to plant vegetable seedlings.

Because Chen is the most experienced, everyone listens to her.

Lu Sidong also worked, but he spent most of his time observing these employees, and when he went back, he had to report to his sister about the work of the employees.

In the afternoon, Lu Jiu did not work, but did his homework.

That's right, Fu Lanqing assigned a lot of homework to Lu Jiu, and he will check it next time he goes to class.

Fu Lanqing assigned ten red descriptions to Lu Jiu.

Drawing red is a traditional method of learning calligraphy, and copying on paper printed with red or hollow red characters is one of the best training methods for beginners.

It took Lu Jiu half an hour to write one, and her wrists were sore from being tired.

I really don't know how Fu Lanqing's characters are practiced, it must have taken a lot of hard work to write so beautifully, right?

However, in fact, Fu Lanqing had never practiced at all.

Genius doesn't need to be practiced.

Lu Jiu worked hard in the afternoon, and only wrote five red descriptions.

By night, I couldn't lift my wrists.

After dinner, Lu Sidong reported to Lu Jiu, and in general, everyone worked very hard and successfully on the first day.

"Fourth brother, do you know how to read?"

"Yes." Lu Sidong said with a smile: "I can still write." ”

"Really?"

Lu Jiu was a little incredulous, a big old man like Lu Sidong could still write?

It's not that she looks down on the fourth brother, but it's too fantastical.

Because Lu Sidong never went to school at all.

"The second brother taught me." Lu Sidong took out a pen and paper and wrote down a few words, although it was not good-looking, but it could be recognized, it should be a lack of practice, he put down the brush and continued: "When recruiting workers in the city, they are willing to read and write, and the salary is more, so I studied with the second brother for a while." ”

Lu Jiu suddenly felt that the fourth brother was still a potential stock, with good skills and literacy, in these ten miles and eight towns, he was simply both civil and military, why couldn't he find a daughter-in-law?

The above three elder brothers all married daughters-in-law at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and it was the turn of the fourth brother, who had not yet married a daughter-in-law in his twenties.

Lu Jiu thought about it, as if it was her pot.

Because all the money for Lu Sidong's daughter-in-law was purchased by the old lady as a dowry for the original owner.

In other words, she owes her fourth brother a daughter-in-law.
