Wulin Chinese Network ., the fastest update of the latest chapter of farmer girl farming!
At the beginning of September, the wind blew, and the wind on the side of the old house blew even more "raging", this wind naturally did not refer to the wind, but the eldest grandson of the Xu family, Xu Hanyang, actually passed the Tongsheng examination.
Although he was ranked 50th, he was admitted, and for the sake of this child, the old house really invested a lot of money, and actually put twenty tables of eight dishes and eight bowls of seats.
This time, the old mansion didn't let Xu Miao and a few of them go, and people didn't look down on the things Xu Miao and they sent, this Xu Zhengjiang is a showman, Xu Hanyang is a child, and the prospects of the two of them are very good.
What kind of showmanship, children, really invited young and old, the village to eat, just those who usually go to other people's houses to do business, the rest don't even think about it, Dao Xi left things, give you some melon seeds, sugar cubes and that's it.
For this, the opinions of the people in the village on the old house are really not young or old, but it is useless if you have an opinion, the threshold is high now, whether you are happy or not. The old house was delayed because Xu Hanyang was admitted to the middle school, and this autumn harvest was delayed.
However, in other villages, basically every household has snatched out the grain, and this year is a bumper harvest year, and after removing the taxes and grains paid, the rest of the food in their hands is inexhaustible.
Xu Miao's family harvested a lot of grain from six acres of land, and after the harvest, they planted six acres of winter wheat.
There is a lot of coarse grain at home, and Xu Miao's sisters and brothers will also pass, after the autumn harvest is over, the child can carry the basket to pick up the wasteland, this wasteland, does not refer to the meaning of wasteland, why do you say this, Xu Miao is not clear, anyway, just follow it.
There are really a lot of lanes these days, millet, corn, peanuts, millet ...... Although I don't look at it much every time, I have made several trips of scavenging this day, and I have also made a lot of food, but there is not much fine grain at home.
Xu Miao can also toss, if he buys grain and then buys fine grain, in the final analysis, he will still lose some money, and casually mentioned it to Boss Pang's eldest son, but he didn't expect Boss Pang to come the next day.
Took the initiative to ask for food exchange with Xu Miao, this grocery store collects grain, and then resells it to other places in Fucheng, this year's new grain, it is extremely sought-after, and sometimes you can't buy it if you want to.
The two discussed it for a while, and finally decided to exchange one pound of cornmeal for seven taels of white flour, or six taels of rice, which is a lot, and it is also a conscience price, Xu Miao understands in his heart that people take care of them, so he is naturally grateful.
In the evening, I discussed with Xu Ya and San Lang, and decided to change 800 catties of cornmeal, so that I could exchange 280 catties of white flour and 240 catties of rice.
Although it is not much, it is enough for them to eat fine grains every three or five times throughout the year to improve their lives. After breakfast the next day, Xu Miao drove a mule cart and pulled grain to the town.
In the backyard of the grocery store, after tossing for nearly an hour, it was finally finished, and Boss Pang's daughter-in-law came over with some delicious pastries and beckoned Xu Miao to eat, and the two of them gossiped homely.
“…… This pastry was made by my aunt herself, how about it, it's okay. Aunt Pang said yes, Xu Miao naturally nodded busily when she heard it, and took a bite with a smile.
The taste, to be honest, is better than eating steamed buns on weekdays, but you can understand it when you think about it, this sugar, eggs or something, all cost money, don't look at this Pang boss's house to open a grocery store, people can also save their lives.
"Auntie, do you make this pastry yourself at home?" Xu Miao pretended to be interested and asked, anyway, there is nothing to do when I go home, the tofu shop is not busy today, it is better to talk here for a while.
"No, we don't have an oven." After Aunt Pang finished speaking, she took the teapot and poured two cups of hot tea. Boss Pang on the side sat on the chair with a smile, and the old god said:
"No, your aunt, you can toss. With the old Zhao family, the two of them went to the place of the trough cake, they can provide a place, and then let you make it yourself, and when it is done, just give people the money for the oven, cheap. ”
When Xu Miao heard this, he nodded understandingly, just like some modern people who have ovens at home, you take the raw materials or something, and then make something and give people a handmade silver coin.
It's not a big deal, but when Xu Miao heard the oven, she really had a lot of ideas, took a sip of tea, then looked at Aunt Pang and said:
"What does the oven look like, is it the same as the stove in our house?"
"It's different, it's definitely different." Aunt Pang stretched out her hand with a smile, pinched Xu Miao's cheek lightly, and then said, "That oven, it's very troublesome, it's ......."
Aunt Pang roughly described the oven, Xu Miao nodded slowly, in fact, it is almost the same as a modern oven, but this oven is to burn firewood, and you have to pay attention to the heat.
When a few people were chatting hotly, a man came in outside, Xu Miao knew him, it was the last time she came over, and then Boss Pang chatted with him, saying that his niece's marriage was Zhao Cui'e's second uncle.
"Ouch, Brother Zhao is here, what do you want to buy?" Boss Pang greeted the guests with a smile, Aunt Pang glanced at it, then turned her head to look at Xu Miao, and said softly:
"Girl, eat quickly, if it's delicious, I'll decorate it for you in a while, and give it to the children, my aunt will make a lot."
"Well, okay, then I won't be polite to my aunt." Xu Miao said with a smile, her eyes couldn't help but look at Zhao Cui'e's second uncle, most of the things she bought were mainly eaten by women, such as brown sugar, eggs, millet, etc.
After Boss Pang sent away the brother of the old Zhao family, he turned back, sat on the chair, and said to his daughter-in-law:
"Hey, just now the second son of the old Zhao family said that Cui'e has it, and she is pregnant."
"What?" When Aunt Pang heard this, she was first surprised, then folded her fingers and continued, "This day is not right, there are ten days in the first month of June, and this is only the beginning of September, even if there is one when you get married, it is only three months, how can you show your pregnancy?" ”
Boss Pang pouted, took a sip of the teacup, sighed, and said, "Who knows, you said it would be ......"
"Don't talk nonsense." Before Boss Pang finished speaking, Aunt Pang interrupted him directly, and then frowned and said, "How is it possible, the nephew of Zhao's daughter-in-law has already left." ”
When Xu Miao heard this, she immediately had doubts in her heart, she didn't know what a woman was pregnant, and she didn't know when she was pregnant, but the people in the old mansion were also a little suspicious of Zhao Cui'e's belly at first.
At this time, Boss Pang and his family also said the same, one or two said, maybe it's nothing, but it is different when there are more people who say it, and Zhao Cui'e's second uncle himself said it, so this is ......
Thinking of this, Xu Miao solved the snack in his hand, then stood up, clapped his hands, and said:
"Uncle and aunt, I'll go to the hospital, it's winter, San Lang's body is not good, I'll ask Mr. Wu to get him some warm and tonic decoction."
The body of the Xu family Sanlang, the Pang family and the couple know, as soon as Aunt Pang heard Xu Miao say this, she naturally did not stop it, nodded busily, and said:
"Okay, go over quickly, I'm rushing back to the village after buying it, don't worry, ah!"
"Hey, got it." Xu Miao finished answering and left the grocery store. Aunt Pang looked at Boss Pang, frowned, and said:
"You, you, you don't have a door to speak, that Miao girl is still here."
"What are you afraid of, she doesn't know Zhao Cui'e." Boss Pang said confidently. If you want to say that this Zhao family is also interesting, where did the girl marry, she couldn't say a word, and it was really a fluke that Xu Miao could hear this today.
If Boss Pang and his wife knew that Xu Miao's new sister-in-law was Zhao Cui'e, it is estimated that they would not have to say what they said just now......
……
Xu Miao got out of the grocery store and went straight to the medical hall, if it was really according to the conversation between the Pang family and the two just now, the last time I met their mother and daughter in the medical hall, it was definitely not a doctor, it was probably to take the pulse.
If you want to say that, the child in Zhao Cui'e's belly is afraid that it will be ...... Thinking of this, Xu Miao walked quickly to the medical hall, and the medicine boy Xiaofuzi saw Xu Miao, greeted him with a smile, and said:
"Sister Miao is here, Saburo sent us beans early in the morning, it's not easy for you to grow some vegetables, how good it is to keep them for yourself."
Xu Miao looked at Xiao Fuzi and chuckled, shook his head, and said, "It's not a good thing, I'm about to stop the garden, and I don't want to eat anymore, where is Mr. Wu, I'm looking for him a little bit of something." ”
"Oh, Mr. Wu is grinding medicine in the backyard, you can go and find him yourself." Xiaofuzi said as he stretched out his hand to point in the direction.
Xu Miao nodded, walked towards the backyard, and walked through the corridor, and saw Mr. Wu sitting under the tree, stepping on the medicine twist, holding a purple clay pot in one hand and a book in the other.
When Xu Miao saw this scene, she really felt envious, if only she could be so comfortable when she was old. Xiao Nizi came to the tree, bowed slightly, and said:
"Mr. Wu!"
Mr. Wu, who was originally reading, tasting tea, and grinding medicine, raised his eyes to look at the person who came, and when he saw that it was Xu Miao, he grinned a little, and then said:
"Huh...... Come on, sit down. ”
"Hey!" Xu Miao answered, then sat on the small bench, looked at the medicine twist grinding the medicine noodles, and asked, "Mr. Wu, what is this?" ”
"This one, there are white peony and He Shou Wu in it...... I gave it to San Lang, don't you see the winter, the child's body is not good, I want to get some warm medicine, and when the time comes, you can also stew him and drink some. ”
After Mr. Wu finished speaking, he continued to grind the medicine, and then took a sip of tea. Hearing this, Xu Miao stood up, turned sideways and saluted again, and said:
"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your concern."
