Ziqing listened to Lin Kangping talking about business matters, and hurriedly said: "Business matters, you are in charge, I don't know anything, but there is one point, when you go out, money is a trivial matter, and your life is the most important [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 225]. ”

"Don't worry, I promise you to come back when you're done, and never meddle anymore, in fact, I'm also very reluctant to let you go."

As soon as Ziqing heard that Lin Kangping was going to go far away, he was always very reluctant to give up, his hands wrapped around his waist, leaned on his chest, lazy, Lin Kangping saw that he picked up Ziqing and put him on the kang next door, leaned over, grabbed Ziqing's lips and sucked hard, and was about to give Ziqing wide clothes, Ziqing hurriedly stopped him, and said vaguely: "Grandma, they will come over soon." ”

Lin Kangping didn't stop his hands and feet, and his mouth didn't stop, and said: "Qing'er, I'm hungry, I've been out for three days, so I can be considerate of me and let me relieve my hunger first." Besides, when you go out now, your face is full of spring, what difference does it make if you do it or not? ”

Ziqing was annoyed when she heard this, and slapped him a few times, "Qing'er, be careful that your hands hurt, and save some strength at a critical time." ”

Ziqing couldn't hold back a smile, so she had to rely on him. Afterwards, Lin Kangping hugged Ziqing to bathe, washed and washed, and the couple had to do their best again.

The two cleaned up and returned to the front yard, Xiaohong said: "The ancestor wants to eat fresh bamboo shoots, and they went to pull bamboo shoots with the master of the in-laws, so I will call them to go." Ziqing's face flushed and glanced at Lin Kangping.

After Lin Kangping went out, Ziqing often took the children to walk around the garden in good weather, sometimes to the peach forest, sometimes to the bamboo forest, and more often to watch the ducks and white geese playing among the lotus leaves by the pond, and every time he held the child's arm, it was sore. Ziqing is also reluctant to give the maid, the little thing is growing up day by day, the little face is fleshy, the little arms are like lotus roots, Ziqing looks at him and his heart is soft, every time he takes him out, the little thing is very excited. The little hands fanned, and the big eyes were spinning.

The weather is getting hotter day by day, and it is especially easy to sweat when holding a child. is also prone to prickly heat, Ziqing remembered the baby stroller in her previous life, and she had to have a stroller in this summer. Children also suffer less sins. Ziqing thought of this, it didn't seem to be very difficult, so it was better to try to make one yourself.

Ziqing spent several hours lying on the kang table, scribbling and changing the sketch, and asked Lin An to invite Master Xu to come over, Master Xu looked at the sketch and said, "It's not difficult to do, how did you come up with it?" I remember that you were a child who had different minds than others. ”

"I don't hold the child every day, and my hands will be sore after a while, thinking that it would be nice if there was a car that could push the child to play while walking. Adults and children alike. I thought about it for several days, from unicycles to four-wheeled vehicles, but I was afraid that there were still areas for improvement, so you can discuss it while you do it, so let's do it at my house. I see what doesn't fit and change it at any time. You also help me figure it out. By the way, it's better to look for a lighter wood. Also, I hope you can keep this matter a secret first, and I will pay you a hundred yuan a day. ”

Master Xu was full of promises, and he didn't even bring his apprentice, so he brought tools the next day. Ziqing took him back to his parents' house to find some ordinary wood, it took seven or eight days, made changes and changes, and finally made three small cars, barely usable, each handrail was polished and smooth, painted, Ziqing sewed a cloth on both sides, the roof is a curved gauze tent supported by bamboo poles, and under the saddle is a thick cotton mattress, which is covered with bamboo mats, and there is still a little space for small things to move in [Qing'er's Pastoral Life Chapter 225].

On this day, the car was completed, Ziqing was watching Xiaoqing and Xiaolan and them rushing to push Shurui to play, Lin Feng and a few of them were watching the fun on the side, only to see Lin An leading Zeng Ruiyu and his eldest brother Zeng Ruifa to come together. It turned out to be the silver that came to sell the pigs, and the thirty or so pigs were sold for more than eighty taels of silver, and then thirty piglets were bought, and there were seventy taels of silver left, and Ziqing received seventy taels of silver, and the rest was divided between them.

"Eldest niece, I don't need so much, the salary of forty wen a day, the two of us have a lot of money, it's quite enough, this little bit is good for us, and we have lost you in the past few years." Zeng Ruiyu said and handed over the money.

Ziqing didn't answer, and said: "Zijun will go to Changzhou Academy next month to take the test, and Ziwen will not have to end the year?" Just when I made up some money for them. ”

Zeng Ruifa was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly pulled Zeng Ruiyu's hand and said: "That's not it, this kid is the third time this year, this silver is really not spent, and the silver money he has accumulated for a lifetime has been defeated in his hands." I'm ruthless, if I don't win this year, I'll stay and farm or go to the city to find a job, if it weren't for your father to persuade me, I won't allow him to read it again this year. ”

"Big brother, like you said, I can't afford to pay for him to study, you can still kill pigs and sell meat, and you have a lot of income in a year, and you have four or five pigs at home, what are you worried about?" Zeng Ruiyu asked.

"Your Ziwen is still young, only fifteen, Zimei became a relative, I added ten taels of silver, it's only been a few years, my family is seventeen this year, Zili is also fifteen this year, both of them should say kiss, which one doesn't want silver?" Zeng Ruifa spread his hands and said.

"It's better for you to be like Ziqing, raise thirty pigs, I'm afraid that one year's income will be enough for you to do these good things." Zeng Ruiyu said.

"The income from raising pigs is not high, I have worked hard for a year, hired so many people to feed the pigs, and bought bran and leftovers for the pigs to eat, and a pig can't earn any money. After deducting the expenses of hiring people and the cost of buying pig food, I am afraid that there will only be forty taels left. Ziqing said.

"The account can't be calculated like this, think about it, if you don't feed the pigs, where do you get all this fertilizer, this land is already barren, and nothing grows without fertilizer. So, don't point to this to earn money, if you want me to say, this is not the main business, as long as you don't lose, you still have some pocket money, forty taels is not a lot. This is your home, leave it with me, it can be used for seven or eight years, don't be satisfied. ”

Zeng Ruiyu almost watched Ziqing grow up, and knew that Ziqing was not the kind of frivolous snobbery, and she had always talked to Ziqing casually. After a pause, he said, "Your land needs to be planted with wheat, and I think it will be raised for a year or two." The edamame is ripe in the past two days, I sent some over, you taste it first, I will find someone to cut it tomorrow, I see that there are a lot of people in your family, I will send it over after cutting, you pick it yourself, this is not a hard work, the bean stalk is kept for firewood, saving you from firewood. In the future, when the corn stalks come down, you will have enough firewood for a year, and you will save a lot of trouble. ”

Ziqing nodded in agreement. I asked about the growth of corn again, and how many times did I loosen the soil? There are no bugs and so on. Zeng Ruiyu patiently answered one by one.

"Don't you say, the corn mixed with edamame seems to grow taller and thicker than the corn in the field next to it, I'm afraid that the one you said really works, I don't know where you came up with the idea?" Zeng Ruiyu asked.

"I've seen it in the agricultural book, but I can't remember the specifics, so it's better to try it for another year next year."

"By the way, the two people Kangping found, I think it's not bad, they have indeed farmed, and they can also pick up, and they don't look away." Zeng Ruiyu said.

When Ziqing heard the news, she felt that she could add some people to Kangzhuang's side, and was pondering, Zeng Ruifa pulled Zeng Ruiyu's clothes, and the two said goodbye and left.

The next afternoon, Ziqing woke up and came out with the child in her arms, only to see Lin An and them picking pods in the yard, and suddenly heard Zixi shouting outside the yard, "Sister, sister, I'm back." ”

"After the exam, are the results out? Look at you, you're going to be a showy master, or so frizzy, when will you get home, mother? Ziqing asked Zixi who ran in front of her.

"Where is it so fast, it will take ten days? My mother and I came back first, and the second sister-in-law still stayed in Anzhou City, her house is not big, and there are many people, and she has lived in someone's house for a short time. ”

"Didn't she buy a new yard and say that it was next door to the original house, and you lived with her mother's family?"

"Not really, eating together. However, her family's business is not bad, the second sister-in-law's younger brother is much more shrewd than the second brother, he is the second sister-in-law's idea, you are really right, the second brother is indeed not suitable for these things, not only people must be shrewd, but also be able to speak well, where can the second brother put down his body and do this? I'm only worried that if they set up their own doors, no one will be able to support my second sister-in-law's restaurant. ”

"Where can you worry so far? The restaurant is not good, the second brother will be able to open a restaurant in the future, how can it be higher than the countryside to open a restaurant in the city, can support the family, plus the family foundation left by the mother, it is more than enough to live, and it is difficult to be rich and expensive. ”

"You're right, I'll talk about the future later, maybe I'm worrying about the sky. What about my brother-in-law? Out again? ”

Suddenly saw Shu Rui lying in the car, Zixi took it and pushed it around, and asked, "Sister, what kind of car is this?" I don't think I've seen it, but you came up with it, right? It's so beautiful, do you plan to sell it? Hey, this side pocket can also be used to put bits and pieces, how did you come up with it? Sister, if I don't want to study and become an official in the future, do you tell me what to do to make a lot of money, the second sister-in-law said that several signature dishes in the store are all you come up with. ”

"You're still so young, why don't you read your books well, what are you thinking? No matter what you want to do in the future and what you want to do, first of all, you must understand that having the identity of a scholar as a talisman is much stronger than Bai Ding. I am holding my children at home every day, and I can only dig out my mind to figure out how to live a more relaxed life. What do you compare to me? Ziqing said.

As they were talking, the Shen family came over, "I have been out for so many days, I don't even bother to cook, come and see my grandson and have a meal." After speaking, Shen picked up the child and teased it.

"Look at what my mother said, I was about to go over to invite it, and I have asked the stove room to be prepared, and my mother loves to eat." Ziqing said.

The family got together and talked about housework, and after the meal, the Shen family and they left on their own. (To be continued)
