If Xiaolian hadn't been waiting for the ox cart from the neighboring village, she would have come back from selling out of braised vegetables a long time ago!

With Xiaolian's labor, the speed of picking vegetables is faster. After a while, the baskets brought by Steward Yao were full of watery vegetables, which looked so attractive.

When Steward Yao was picking vegetables and loading the car, he went to the backyard of the Yu family and the vegetable field that had been reclaimed by the lake for nearly three or four acres. Beans and cucumbers crawl all over the shelves; Eggplant and pepper have a good rise; Lettuce and carrots don't show how big the rhizome is, but the leaves are very verdant and lush; Lentils and fungus decorate the surrounding fence into an emerald wall. And those vegetables that he couldn't name, all over the place......

It is believed that it will not be long before these vegetables will enter the harvest period. Other people's vegetables were just small seedlings at that time. More than a month earlier than the seasonal vegetables, Steward Yao knows very well what this means!

He looked at the Yu family's simple house and the simple furnishings in the house. Now it seems that the Yu family is poor, but with this skill of growing vegetables, why not make a fortune? Steward Yao didn't dare to despise the Yu family.

After the basket of vegetables passed the scales, it filled the Yao family's carriage. All kinds of vegetables add up, a total of 680 catties. Steward Yao knows that his old lady's appetite is very tricky, if he knows these vegetables of the Yu family, he will definitely have more when he deals with them in the future! So he generously counted all the vegetables at the price of lettuce - twenty-five wen a catty.

Lao Yutou saw that the vegetables that were only three or five cents a pound in previous years were sold at five times or eight times the price, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears: "The sea, you have sold this vegetable to the price of pork, are you not afraid of the nobles to blame?" ”

"Grandpa! Let's be a fair deal, one is willing to buy and the other is willing to sell, what is there to blame and not to blame? Yu Xiaocao took a basin of water, asked his grandfather to wash his hands, and continued:

"The Yao family is a well-known rich family in the town, meat or something, I have been tired of eating it for a winter! If you don't believe it, ask Steward Yao, at this time, is Old Lady Yao willing to eat meat or eat our vegetables? ”

"Yes...... After all, we're greens! Selling it so expensive, isn't it killing people? Old Yutou felt a little uneasy.

Steward Yao counted the money for the dishes and said, "Old man, as the saying goes, rare things are expensive!" Now in this season, if you want to eat vegetables, you have nowhere to buy them if you have money! Your vegetables are the only ones in town, and you don't have to worry about selling them if they are expensive! ”

After that, he handed the two ingots of silver to Yu Hai's hand, and said, "Big brother, this is twenty taels of silver, you take it!" ”

Yu Hai waved his hand and said, "I don't need so much, six hundred and eighty catties of vegetables, a total of seventeen taels of silver." You're already taking care of us, and you can't ask for any more of your silver......"

"You take it first! The remaining three taels are considered fixed money, and the vegetables in your backyard have to be kept for my brother, and don't sell them all to Zhenyulou. "Steward Yao also knows the truth of casting a long line to catch big fish. You took my money, and it was only natural to buy vegetables later!

Yu Hai was still a little hesitant, but Yu Xiaocao had already taken the charge and accepted the money, and said with a smile: "Since Steward Yao said so, what vegetables do you need in the future, let people give you a message, and we will send it to the house for you!" ”

Steward Yao nodded again and again: "I want you to say this!" Knowing that you don't have enough manpower, I will send someone to buy it in the future! Little fourth son, memorize the route, and I will teach you about buying vegetables in the future. Do a good job, don't embarrass my godfather! ”

The latter sentence is said to the guy who is driving the car. The little guy was also dexterous, nodding his head like pounding garlic, and his face showed flattered joy. From a small horse breeder, he has become a buyer in the house, not only has the level gone up, but the treatment is even more incomparable.

You know, buying is a very oily job. In the future, I will have to honor my godfather, without the promotion of my godfather, how can there be a day when he is a junior?

"Thank you, godfather! Thank you godfather!! Xiao Si kept thanking him, as if no amount of thanks was enough to express his gratitude.

"Good job! In the future, I will have more time dealing with the Yu family, so be polite to them. That little girl, in particular, has an idea. Don't slack off! On the way back, Steward Yao mentioned a word, which benefited Xiaosi a lot.

In the days that followed, Xiao Si'er frequently traveled back and forth between Dongshan Village and Tanggu Town. He kept in mind his godfather's words, called Yu Hai and his wife "uncle, aunt" affectionately, and took the initiative to help do some work. He is not much different in age from Yu Hang, and he is like a brother. He also took care of Xiaolian and Xiaoshi as younger brothers and sisters, and every time he came to buy vegetables, he would bring them some pastries. But for Yu Xiaocao, who looks like a small lotus, he unconsciously has a sense of respect.

The interpersonal relationship is good, even when the vegetables in the field are more nervous, he has never returned empty-handed. The errand was done well, and naturally he was quickly promoted. From the small guy in purchasing, to the small person in charge of purchasing, and then to the general person in charge of purchasing. When his godfather was promoted to become the chief manager, he became the youngest chief manager in his early twenties.

Unmarried, he has become a sweet spot in the eyes of the maids in the house, and the big maids who originally disdained him have also changed their eyes when they look at him. And he also mustered up the courage to ask for marriage to the big girl next to the old lady who he had loved for a long time and who only dared to watch from a distance. By the grace of the old lady, she gave him the green embroidery that had reached the age of marriage. After his godfather retired, he succeeded his godfather as the head of Yao's mansion......

And all these changes began on that sunny afternoon, when he and his godfather went to Dongshan Village and met the noble person in his life......

This is all in the future, and now Yu Xiaocao is sitting on a small stool, staring at the vegetable patch in his yard. Yu Hang looked at the little sister who was in a daze, called softly, and asked, "Little sister, what do you want?" So focused? ”

Yu Xiaocao glanced back at him, helped him cover the clamp quilt on his legs, looked back at his vegetable patch, and said with a little excitement: "Brother, have you noticed?" The yield of our vegetable plot is really good! ”

"Oh? What's not bad? "In the past, the vegetable plot at home was a wasteland that was randomly opened in front of the house and behind the house, and only some common vegetables were grown for the family's own consumption. How have you calculated the yield of vegetable plots?

But Yu Xiaocao was a vegetable farmer in her previous life, when her parents did not die, she was a vegetable farmer, and she was already in junior high school at that time, and she often helped calculate the yield per mu in the field and the income from selling vegetables.

In the previous life, when there was chemical fertilizer, the yield of one acre of green vegetables was only 2,500 catties. The seven or eight points of land planted in the courtyard have been sold for more than 1,000 catties, and less than half of them have been picked by visual inspection. In other words, the yield of vegetables they grow per mu is at least 3,000 catties, maybe it can reach 4,000 catties!! It's proper!!

If calculated in this way, the income from this small piece of land in the light courtyard can be sold for seventy or eighty taels of silver. The price of vegetables with a long growing period in the backyard must be much more expensive, and the income per mu should be more than 100 taels. In this way, the income from planting vegetables in the spring alone can be 500 taels!

The more Yu Xiaocao counted in his heart, the more excited he became, a dazzling light appeared in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to hug the little mending stone and kiss it fiercely.

The little golden cat, who was lying comfortably on Yu Hang's lap and enjoying the pleasure of being petted, suddenly felt cold all over, and the hair on his back suddenly stood up - not good, there is danger!!

Just when Yu Xiaocao was staring at her vegetable patch as if she was looking at a golden pimple, suddenly the voice she didn't want to hear sounded outside the door: "What about people?" Where are they all dead? What do you close in broad daylight? Could it be that you have done something unfortunate and afraid that people will come to your door? ”

Xiaocao jumped up from the stool, she rushed to the door with an arrow, opened the heavy wooden door, and saw Zhang standing at the door of their house with a shoehorn face.

"Milk, why are you here?" Yu Xiaocao pressed the boredom in her heart and squeezed out a smile on her face.

"What? The threshold of your house is so high, your milk can't come to the door? Li Guihua looked like a show, and was squeezed by the fat until there was only a slit left in the mouse eyes, and looked into the door angrily.

Zhang pushed aside Yu Xiaocao and stepped into the door. Her sharp hanging eyes first looked at the surrounding stone walls, and said gloomily: "I don't have the money to build such a high wall, is it to prevent thieves, or to prevent me?" ”

Is there a difference? You haven't been a thief yet! People are thieves and there is a way, you can always scrape off three feet of land! Yu Xiaocao complained in her heart, but said in her mouth:

"Our old house is too close to the West Mountain, aren't we afraid that the wild beasts will not find food in the winter and go down the mountain to harm people? Milk, don't be careful, this wall is wolf-proof! You see, when we moved out, my father's leg didn't know if he could be saved, and my brother was sold as an apprentice again, leaving my mother and a few of us women and children, if there was really a hungry wolf or something, what could we do! So, we didn't even repair the house, and used all the money that my grandmother's family lent us to build the wall! ”

There are many meanings in this seemingly ordinary explanation: First, when my father was seriously injured, you made us almost leave the house, and almost killed my brother. Change to a slightly thinner skin, and you won't come to the door without that face. Secondly, you haven't paid a penny for the money we paid to build this wall, so what qualifications do you have to make irresponsible comments?

How can Zhang's face be comparable to ordinary people? She didn't know if she really heard or if she didn't hear the meaning of Xiaocao's words, her eyes only swept over Yu Hang, who was lying on the recliner and couldn't move, and focused on the large fields of vegetables in the courtyard.

Li cooperated with understanding: "The second child is really filial! I planted so many vegetables, and I didn't know how to honor the elderly, just selling vegetables to make money! ”

The second is even more served!
