Ziyu's family affairs were quickly settled, Mrs. Xia was holding Ziyu's hand and couldn't close her mouth, the Zeng family naturally didn't know, the Xia family not only took a fancy to Zifu's potential, but the Xia family also knew that Zixi was better than Zifu. What's more, Mrs. Xia came twice and was even more surprised to learn that Ziyu was not only literate, but also a housekeeper. [~]

Originally, Mrs. Xia in Hualien fell in love with Ziyu at a glance, her appearance and temperament are good, and she has an elder brother who is an official. Now, I know more about Ziyu and the Zeng family, the Zeng family not only has these benefits, but also the women of the Zeng family can give birth to sons, Shen, Ziqing, and Ziqing's grandmother are all more boys than girls. The Xia family is even more satisfied with this family business. Therefore, some can't wait to settle down.

The Xia family's gift to Ziyu not only has a full set of gold jewelry, but also ten pieces of good clothing for the four seasons, six hundred taels of silver tickets, and said that they will give the Zeng family a dowry of 100 acres of paddy fields in the future.

Shen smiled but didn't answer, the Zeng family didn't care about the 100 acres of paddy fields, and the dowry given by the Zeng family still had 100 acres of paddy fields. However, the Shen family was relieved when they saw this, and they could see that the Xia family was sincerely asking for marriage. Following Ziqing's suggestion, he bought a little girl for Ziyu and prepared to marry into the Xia family with Ziyu.

Let's say that Lin Kangping had just put rapeseed and peas and broad beans into the warehouse and was about to plant seedlings, and Master Fu sent someone to invite Lin Kangping to come over.

It turned out that it was the last time that he pushed people to Lin Kangping, and Master Fu was a little reluctant, and after thinking about it again and again, he finally won a chance for Lin Kangping, that is, in the future. The rice, flour, grain, oil, vegetables and vegetables needed by the government every year can be purchased from Kangzhuang. In this way, Kangzhuang needs to send someone to deliver a cart of vegetables from the village early in the morning, as well as pork, fish, chickens, ducks and geese, and all kinds of poultry eggs. Grain and oil are delivered once every ten days, so that Kangzhuang does not have to worry about not being able to sell it. Moreover, it is more suitable than selling to a dental dealer.

"It's pretty much the same, it seems that this Master Fu is not an unfriendly person, I don't know how to deal with the abduction incident last time?" Ziqing expected that this matter should be an opportunity, and originally, the people hated the abduction of abductors. [~] This time I took advantage of the situation to end the kidnapper's nest, how can there be some benefits?

"I forgot to tell you that several leaders were sentenced to exile and put on a flail for three days, and there were more onlookers. There are even more people who have lost their children, and they can't wait to draw their tendons, Master Fu is on the book, and he also mentioned the credit of the eldest brother, there should be a little bit of a statement, but even if there is, it will be said when the term of office is up. ”

"It's a pity that Xiao Si, the main hero, is still young and didn't borrow the light. There is also a second brother. Ziqing had some regrets.

"You are really greedy, it's good that Master Fu hasn't forgotten his eldest brother, where can you take care of those? However, I can see that Master Fu admires Xiao Si very much and asks me a lot about Xiao Si. Lin Kangping had a vague idea in his heart. However, if you are not sure, you can't talk nonsense.

As soon as the spring ploughing was over, Lin Kangping took Lin Fu and Shen Baofu out, and before leaving, he carefully selected two eight-year-old girls from Kangzhuang, one called Xiaobai and the other called Xiaohuang, these two names Ziqing felt a little awkward, but she couldn't find a suitable one for a while.

At the end of April, Lin An replied that the silt in the swamp was almost cleaned up, and after listening to Lin Kangping's previous instructions, the soft-shelled turtles for more than ten years were sold one after another, some of them were sold to Changzhou, as well as the nearby county seats, plus last year, a total of more than 560 taels of silver were collected, far more than the silver money to buy this swamp, of course, the soft-shelled turtle was still sold relatively secretly, and there was no news about it.

Ziqing was stunned when she heard this, this is a good thing that she didn't expect, just such a broken swamp, fifty acres of land, a total of more than 100 taels of silver, and the soft-shelled turtle at the bottom is worth hundreds of silver, this is going to be passed out, and the person who bought it must not break his head? Is this a good place for natural soft-shelled turtle farming?

"Grandma, there are also a lot of soft-shelled turtles under ten years old, Laifu didn't rush to clean them up, and sent me to ask the master what he meant. This swamp, the middle part is relatively deep, there is a new foreman in the village surnamed Zhu, he said that it is better to raise fish, horizontally erect such a large piece of land as our family, to a small reservoir, in case of drought needless to say, even if it encounters waterlogging, this reservoir can also store the rainwater discharged from the crops, so as not to flood the crops. (Leaves·~..) Also, along the shore of shallow water, you can divide more than 20 acres of shallow ponds, and plant lotus roots or bamboo shoots. ”

Ziqing thought for a while and said: "According to the old Zhu foreman's meaning, the soft-shelled turtles in the pond don't need to be cleaned up, they are still raised, and in addition, catch a few pairs and put them in other ponds." "Ziqing wants to see if she can raise soft-shelled turtles in the future?

Lin Kangping promised to go out, and Ziqing suddenly asked again: "Who is the one who delivers food to the state government every day?" Can it be careful? What do you get every day? ”

"This grandmother is relieved, they are two very proper people, they have been in Zhuangzi for more than three years, and I have been watching them. In addition to 1,000 catties of fresh vegetables every day, five plates of tofu, five or six fish, ten chickens and ten ducks, two geese, one hundred eggs, fifty duck eggs, in short, the chickens and ducks in the village do not have to worry, and fish, I knew that this was the case, and the big fish in the fish pond here in the old years did not have to be sold in a hurry. According to their wishes, they want to have half a fan of pork, but our family can't afford it, and our family now has about fifty pigs. In addition, the feed produced in the village can't keep up. ”

"Started making tofu in Shori? How did I not know? ”

"Master knows, the tofu we eat now is sent from the village, grandma doesn't know? The ready-made stone mill in the village, the ready-made beans at home, the sixty-year-old Zhu has the skill of making tofu. ”

Ziqing was happy when she heard it, it seems that if you plant some cotton weaving cloth in the village, you can really be self-sufficient, any person, you can always have his strengths, God is not blind to everyone. It's a pity that such a person has been reduced to homelessness, I don't know what kind of sadness is behind it?

"What about the rice? Is our rice enough for them? ”

"Our family collected about 64,000 catties of rice in the old year, about 44,000 pounds of rice, which is enough for the village and the family. Rapeseed oil is a little more abundant, but unfortunately it is not enough for them. ”

Ziqing listened to the calculation, so that the production of Kangzhuang could be sold, and there was basically no need to worry about it.

"By the way, grandma, there is one more thing, what Lao Zhou meant, after the early acres of bamboo shoots are harvested, can they all be moved to the swamp? There are a total of about 20 acres, and it is good to take care of it together, and rice will be planted here. ”

"Just as he wills.

Lin An agreed, but didn't go down, Ziqing glanced at him, he touched his head, and asked: "Grandma, there is one more thing, it's better to discuss it with grandma, that is, I once mentioned it to grandma, there is a person named Da Niu, who took a fancy to Ah Tao, grandma asked me to ask the meaning of the two, and said that the woman is not allowed to marry if she is less than sixteen years old, and now, these two have this meaning, let me ask grandma what it means, and ask grandma to fulfill it." ”

Ziqing seemed to remember this, and said: "If both of you agree, you go and arrange it, get married after the autumn harvest, and also, is there a surplus in the house in the village?" After getting married, they will be divided into separate houses, and then there is a suitable question to understand, a happy event, the house is not enough, you build it, pay money from the account, tell everyone, do a good job, get married and arrange a new house in the village, and be more diligent in the future. If anyone violates the rules, they will be sent out. ”

Lin An was overjoyed when he heard this: "I sent them to kowtow to grandma." "I'm going to quit when I'm done.

Ziqing glanced at Xiaoqing Xiaolan standing next to her, and said with a smile: "By the way, Lin An, you have to look at the right one, and pick one for yourself and Lin Fu." ”

Lin An quickly glanced at Xiaolan, and jumped and ran when he went out.

Ziqing glanced at Xiaolan who hung her head and didn't know what to think, and asked, "Xiaolan, how old are you this year?" ”

"What else does the master ask even if he knows it?" Xiaoqing handed Ziqing a bowl of goat's milk and said.

Ziqing almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of goat milk, and said: "It's all the opposite, it seems that I was too loose with you before, so one by one didn't take me seriously, and if you dare to talk to the master like this, you would have already peeled off your skin." ”

Xiaoqing hurriedly came up to smooth Ziqing's back, and muttered: "The master is not careful, this is going to choke, the master knows, and the slave should be scolded again." ”

"Yo, you dead girl, don't say that you deliberately talk back, but say that I was careless, it seems that you want to do the opposite?" Ziqing said deliberately.

"How dare a slave?"

"It's really boring, ouch, someone doesn't want to tell the truth, so I'll go to sleep, and I'll settle accounts with you when I wake up." Ziqing stretched after speaking.

Xiaoqing and Xiaolan, look at me, I look at you, no one knows what medicine is sold in Ziqing's gourd?

After Ziqing entered the inner room, she didn't rush to bed, and hid behind the door to listen to Xiaoqing and Xiaolan whispering outside.

"Sister, why don't you tell grandma? If it's true that grandma is confused and matches Lin An, what do I think you should do? Xiaoqing's voice.

"Then don't get married, and serve grandma and grandfather for the rest of your life, as well as the little master."

"Sister, don't you think about your master?"

"You little hoof, to die, and you're still pulling on these, am I the one who doesn't open your eyes? Who is in your heart that you don't know? ”

"Also, I've never seen such a good man to a woman, and other people can't see it in the eyes of the master. I think grandma must know something, so let's play with it? Why don't you find an opportunity to talk to grandma, grandma can be accomplished even by an outsider, let alone us? Xiaoqing said.

"If you want to say it, I can't open my mouth." Xiaolan sighed.

Ziqing covered her mouth and went to bed when she heard this, and it was not bad to have fun with these two maids when she was bored. (This site: Your support is my biggest motivation. )
