Chapter 279: My heart fell to Liu Wan

Especially when Wu Hui heard that Liu Wan gave her younger brother as much as 15 to 18 taels of silver a year, she felt that a hundred tastes came to her heart.

Wang Xiao told her that in the future, she would still deceive her stepmother Zhou only with the original salary, so that Zhou could not deduct Wu Jing.

Wu Hui and her younger brother have had a good relationship since childhood, and when she lost her mother, she promised that whoever could take care of Wu Jing would be the object of her loyalty.

In the past, Wu Jing was controlled by the Zhou family, and she could only passively be subject to the Zhou family, but now that Wu Jing obviously fell to Liu Wan's side, her heart naturally fell to Liu Wan.

Liu Wan occasionally looked up, saw Wu Hui's eyes full of gratitude, understood her thoughts a little, and said with a smile:

"Xiaohui, you should also pay attention to walking more when you are free, lest the child be too big and it will be difficult to give birth at that time."

"Okay, I can save it." Wu Hui nodded.

"Of course, I'm just saying, you don't have to worry about having a child, I've already invited the best stable woman in the neighboring village.

It only takes half an hour from her house to us, and if you start it, let Xiao'er Yun invite her before it's too late. ”

Wu Hui saw that Liu Wan had arranged it well, and she was grateful.

Liu Wan planned to do some farm work in the afternoon, but she had not been active for a long time, and her muscles and bones were lazy, so she dared to work and stretch.

She went to the vegetable field for a walk, cut a handful of leeks, this season, the leeks have also reached the end of the stubble, she thought, you can wrap leek dumplings at night to eat.

After she finished cutting the leeks, she saw the neighbor on the adjacent field, he had a lot of vegetable fields, and there were also vegetable fields under the nearby mountains, so this land was planted with taro, and now the taro leaves are growing vigorously, and the neighbors are cutting off the taro leaves on the side and throwing them on the ground.

This villager planted more than three acres of taro, which grew well, so Liu Wan asked him:

"Da Zhuang, can I harvest the taro leaves?"

Da Zhuang was bending down to cut taro leaves, and when he saw that it was Liu Wan, he said very respectfully:

"Aunt Liu, do you want taro leaves? Feed the cows? It's okay, you can take everything you can't collect! ”

Liu Wan is now a woman who has received the emperor's holy decree, who in the village won't let her score three points? Or even three points in awe.

It was his honor for Liu Wan to ask him for taro leaves, how dare he ask for Liu Wan's money?

Besides, he cut the taro leaves to use them as fertilizer, and they didn't have any big uses, so he gave them to Liu Wan, which was regarded as a favor.

Liu Wan said: "That's it, all the leaves you cut belong to me, I'll give you 10 yuan, so many leaves, you can't ask for it in vain, you cut it and send it to my family." ”

"Okay!" When Da Zhuang heard this, he was overjoyed and said that he could, and said that he would personally send the cut taro leaves to Liu Wan's house in a while.

Liu Wan nodded and agreed.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Da Zhuang really pushed all the taro leaves of his several acres of land to Liu Wan's house in a wheelbarrow, which was full of hundreds of catties.

Liu Wan gave him 10 yuan, and after unloading the goods, he beckoned Wang Lian to deal with it together.

Wang Lian said puzzledly: "Mother, this taro stalk was cut directly and fed to the pigs and cows, what to deal with?" ”

Wang Lian is still puzzled, Liu Wan still has to pay for it?

The taro stalks were cut directly by the villagers and thrown into the field to fertilize the fields.

Liu Wanle said happily: "You don't understand this, it's dried, and the bacon is fried with taro stalks, it tastes good." ”

"Mother, it's obviously a disgusting taro pole, why was you talking about fried bacon or something, it made my saliva run all over the ground."

Wang Lian swallowed hard, and the true nature of the snack was revealed.

Liu Wan bought her: "You help me deal with these taro stalks, I will have a fried bacon with dried bracken, a spicy cabbage, and finally a fresh clam and steamed rice in wooden barrels." ”

Liu Wan originally wanted to make leek dumplings, but Wang Lian said that she had to change her mind, she put the leeks in the gourmet food cabinet, and she could use them to make dumplings tomorrow.

"Mother, don't say it, I'm drooling again. You said you had to do it! ”

Wang Lian pursed her lips, and then obediently helped Liu Wan deal with the taro stalks.

Cut off the green taro leaves, leave the taro stalks in a pile, wash them, cut them in half, and then put them in a dustpan or hang them on a rack to dry.

When it is dry, it can be put away and stored for a long time.

Of course, Liu Wan has to put it in the gourmet food cabinet, to deal with the famine, she has food in her hands, and she doesn't panic.

In the ancient dynasties and dynasties in history, there was not a generation that did not experience famine, and the reasons for this were natural and man-made disasters, science and technology were not developed enough, agriculture depended on the sky for food, there was a lack of fertilizer, and grain production was insufficient.

Liu Wan has always had a sense of crisis and has accumulated worries.

Now she can't afford to spend a lot of money on food, she doesn't even let go of mosquito legs, and it's good to dry more dry goods and store them.

After Wang Lian finished dealing with the taro stalks, he asked:

"Mother, didn't you say you wanted to receive flowers last time?"

"yes." Liu Wan nodded, she wanted to make essential oils and flower soaps.

It's just that there are too many things in ordinary times, some of which are not urgent, and they forget when they are busy, and it is rare for Wang Lian to remember.

"Last time, you said that you could ask the children in the village to collect them, I happened to go to the mountains in the morning to pick wild vegetables, and I met a group of children, I asked them to pick flowers for our family, and paid for them to collect flowers, and they were very happy."

Wang Lian said.

"Okay, you explain that the varieties of flowers they have are different, and they should be separated and not mixed. A basket of flowers gave them 3 cents. ”

"Okay." Wang Lian nodded.

Now she can handle these little things, just like the head of the children in the village.

The children in the village did not go to school, and their parents would support them if they could make money so easily.

A basket of flowers for 3 yuan, the children are crazy to hear the news, they usually want to earn a penny is difficult, if a pound of flowers can earn 3 yuan, they work hard, pick a basket a day, isn't there 6 yuan?

The children knew that the news was released by Wang Lian, and they were all convinced.

Because the children in the village who send forage to the Wang family every day can get an income of 2 yuan for a basket of forage as promised, and one child has been sending it for a month and earning 60 yuan.

Now the boy has become the most sinister of the children in the village.

He put the copper plate he earned in his pocket, and when he walked, his body shook greatly, and the copper coins made a "jingling" sound in his pocket, and I don't know how tempting it was.

The children were envious of him!

It's just that the forage delivery business was intercepted by these big children, and they couldn't steal their business for a while.

Now that Wang Lian wants to collect flowers, he undoubtedly gives them a new way to make money, so they are all very busy.

Children in the mountains run around in the grass all day long, knowing where and where flowers are most lush.

In this season, moon flowers, wild roses, and wild lilies are everywhere on the mountain, but with Wang Lian's solicitation order, these flowers are included in the backbaskets of the children in Taoyuan Village.

No one in the village wants to see these flowers and plants, although they are beautiful, they are useless, they can't be eaten, and no one understands the art of flower arrangement, so they have always been lonely and ownerless, and when the time comes, they will wither alone.

Now they are all treasures in the eyes of children.

In the evening of the same day, a group of children came to deliver flowers.
