When the family was happy with the gift, Bai Shao told the Wu family about the county magistrate's daughter's order of clothes, which aroused Wu's great attention.

Counting, this should be the first garment business of Jinse, so the Wu family and the embroidery girls attach great importance to it.

So, Bai Peony painted patterns, Wu's master embroidered, and the embroiderer helped to assist in embroidery, and then hurriedly followed for nearly a month, and finally embroidered the embroidery.

Originally, the next step was to piping and embroidering pearls, but because the day was already the end of October, Wu put the clothes away for the time being.

Because, the rice in Izumo Town is ripe.

The Bai family is now a small landlord, the thirty-five acres of Izumo Town, plus the three acres of Shilipu, add up to thirty-eight acres, which is not a lot of land in Izumo Town, but compared to ordinary people, it is obviously a lot.

A lot of land means that the family is rich, which is a good thing.

But when it comes to the busy farming, it's a little sad.

Because Bai Shao's family simply does not have enough manpower to harvest rice.

Fortunately, there is an identity called "short-term worker" in this era, which is similar to the meaning of the guys hired in the shop, signing a deed for a period of time, during this time, the Bai Shao family paid them to help harvest rice, pound rice, and plant wheat.

At first, when Bai Chuanbai heard that his family was going to hire a short-term worker, he was a little stunned, because just half a year ago, he was still the short-term worker who was hired.

Unexpectedly, in just half a year, he could already hire short-term workers.

This kind of change made him pleasantly surprised and full of emotion.

When it was time to harvest the rice, he saw more than a dozen short-term workers working in his own fields, and he quietly moistened his eyes.

In order not to be discovered by his children, he ran to the side and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes.

Bai Wei sensed that he was going over, and was gently grabbed by Bai Shao's arm, shook his head, and then continued to stand on the ground, watching a group of people cut rice in full swing there.

In those days, there were no cutters, and they were all cut by a sickle, and after they were harvested, they were spread out on the flat ground, and a cylindrical stone was pulled by a living ox and rolled back and forth on it in order to press down the rice.

As for the cylindrical stone, it is called a mill in the dialect of Shilipu.

The Bai family has a mill, but the Bai Shao family does not have a mill, so Bai Chuanbai went to buy a new mill two days before the farm, picked a middle-aged cow, and asked the short-term workers to lead the cow, rolling it back and forth on the straw over and over again, taking off the rice, lifting it, and then putting it on the cloth to dry, and then put it away.

Although 35 acres of land seems like a lot, under the busy work of more than a dozen short-term workers, it only takes three to five days to complete the harvest, plough the land, and plant wheat.

The rest is only three acres of land in ten miles.

According to the meaning of Bai Shao, leave two short-term workers to plant the three acres of land together.

However, Shirakawa Bai is unwilling, he is already thin-skinned, and now Izumo Town is wantonly calling for short-term workers to harvest seeds, after all, there are few people around who know him.

But Shilipu is different, that's where he grew up, almost every villager has relatives, he can't rent two short-term workers to farm, because that will only make the villagers talk about it, pointing fingers behind his back, and saying that he has a little stinky money is great.

What he meant was that it would be nice to plant the three acres of land in Shilipu by himself, and it was not much work anyway, plus with oxen and plows, it could be said that it was easier.

No one wanted to quarrel over this trivial matter, so they all agreed with Shirakawa Kashiwa's idea.

One early morning at the end of October, Bai Chuanbai got up early, and after seeing that the food made by Shiweitian was okay, he took the calf out with confidence, tied the flat cart at home to the cow's body, and loaded the plough on it, and got on the ox cart to go to Shilipu to harvest rice.

Who knew that before the ox cart started to go, the side door of the white house was opened, and the two daughters of the Bai family, wearing simple trouser gowns, ran out of the yard in a smoke, boarded the ox cart in three or two, and found a place to sit down.

"You ...... What are you going to do? Bai Chuanbai was a little stunned.

"Dad, how tired you are from farming alone, my sister and I will help you go." Bai Shao said with a grin.

"How can I let my daughter work, you two are still at home with your mother." Shirakawa Bai wanted to persuade the two daughters to go down.

"Dad, it's okay, my brother is at home, it's good for us to go and help you measure the land." Bai Shao and Bai smiled, but they didn't want to go down.

Shirakawa Kashiwa couldn't resist the two daughters, so he had to drive the ox cart and go to Izumo Town in a leisurely manner.

Because the mill was too heavy to bring over, it was definitely going to the Bai family to borrow the mill, so Bai Chuanbai bought a skewer of pork on the road, and bought some commonly eaten vegetables and gave it to the Bai family.

Bai Shao and Bai Wei didn't say anything.

If you want to borrow something from others, how can you be empty-handed.

Besides, Bai Chuanbai has such an awareness, which proves that he has finally separated his family from the Bai family in Shilipu, which is a good thing, and Bai Shao will not stop him.

When they arrived at the door of Bai's house in Shilipu, Bai Shao and Bai Wei took the lead in jumping down from the ox cart, one carrying the meat and the other carrying the vegetables, and when Bai Chuanbai parked the ox cart, he followed in.

It's still that familiar little courtyard, and it's still that group of people.

It's just that it's always a little strange to look at, and it feels different from before.

Bai Shao tilted her head and observed for a long time, only to find that it turned out that everyone's dress had changed.

Originally, only the Liu family had two good clothes in the entire Bai family, Bai Ko and Qian's were okay, and the Xu family had the help of her mother's family, and the others were ordinary, especially the Bai Ying and Bai Zhi sisters, who wore the most broken in the entire Bai family.

But now, not to mention Liu's extravagant dark red embroidered gold silk Baifu clothes, let's just say that Bai Zhi and Bai Ying are wearing very good.

Since Bai Shao's family opened the embroidery village, their eyes on these fabrics have also become poisonous, and they can see at a glance that the clothes on Bai Ying and Bai Zhi are at least two hundred wen and one zhang, and the ones on Liu's body are even more expensive, at least one or two pieces of silver.

Moreover, they also wear all kinds of jewelry on their heads, among which Liu is the most exaggerated, with three hairpins on their heads, and they are not afraid to press their heads......

Bai Shao secretly slandered in her heart, but she smiled on the surface, entered the Bai family hall with Bai Chuanbai, and greeted Old Man Bai sweetly, "Master, we have come to see you." ”

"Hey, hey, the fifth sister is here." Old Man Bai happily stood up from the table, still holding a cup of tea in his hand, and when he saw Bai Chuanbai, he took a sip before he said loudly, "The third child is also here, you can come, why do you still bring things." ”

"Buy some meat for me to eat." Bai Shao smiled while quietly looking at the tea set, and found that it was exactly the same as the one she saw in the tea set shop in Xieyang County yesterday, and the price was about the same as Bai Chuanbai's set, but because the pattern was a little old-fashioned, it was given up by Bai Shao.

Now, it has appeared in the hands of Old Man Bai......

All of this made Bai Shao couldn't help but squint her eyes, and she secretly made a bold guess in her heart - did the Bai family suddenly get rich?

Otherwise, where can I have the money to buy new clothes, as well as new jewelry, and new tea sets.

What's more, in the past, when they bought things, although the Liu family disdained them, they were very rare about things, and always asked their daughter-in-law to take them away and put them in the pot house, waiting for the next meal to have a good meal.

But now, the Liu family didn't care about the meat they bought at all, sat next to Old Man Bai, cocked his fingers, and emphasized with a little deliberate grasp, "Third brother, if you don't want to look at us, forget it, what is it to buy these things, who doesn't have a little meat." ”

Bai Chuanbai was a little embarrassed, he originally thought that there was not much money here in Shilipu, with Liu's personality, he would definitely have to give a part of it to the Liu family during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there was not much left, and the family would definitely not be able to eat meat for a few days, so he sent a little, just so that they could have a good meal.

As a result, I didn't expect that people seemed to be doing very well, and they didn't want to eat meat, and they didn't seem to look down on pork.

"This ...... Mother ......" Bai Chuanbai was stupid, and he couldn't say anything to argue, so he could only stand in place and say a little embarrassed, "If my mother doesn't like it, I won't bring meat next time I come to Shilipu." ”

"Next time?" Liu Shi snorted coldly, "Next time, you really don't need to bring meat, because we won't live in Shilipu." A better user experience.
