Chapter 43 Chengnan Farmhouse

 Shen Guihua also rolled her eyes at the old lady, "You have done it all the time, and you are still afraid of people telling you?"

Lin Xiaoman was helpless. This old lady was mean. Although she was not very vicious, she only cared for her old son. She had always used the things from the eldest son's family to supplement the younger son's family.

But looking at it today, although the old lady is not so kind to her eldest son and his family, she will still protect her family if something happens to her. She is much better than her vicious grandmother.

It would be annoying to be plotted by her every now and then for the next three days. Besides, if you want to make money, you can't stay in the village all the time. So he said to Shen Guihua: "Aunt Guihua, if you want to start a business in the city in the future, you can't always go back to the village." We are in the village, you talk to me, Master Seventeen, and we will live in the city from now on."

According to seniority, Shen Guihua is Lin Xiaoman's grandmother. Although she is called aunt after her mother, the seniority in the clan cannot be messed up. Lin Xiaoman has called Xiangxing's father Qi Ye since he was a child.

Shen Guihua also had this intention, "Let's start the business later. As long as we see the money, the old lady doesn't care whether we come back or not."

"Hmm, save more money to give to Xiang Xing as a dowry, so that you won't be bullied when you marry into your husband's family."

Xiangxing blushed, "Xiaoman, I'm not in a hurry."

Lin Xiaoman smiled, "Why don't you rush? We are both sixteen, and I have to wait two years before I can get married. If you don't get married after next year, you will become an old girl. You can't meet someone unkind once. , just be an old girl for the rest of your life?"

Xiang Xing blushed and said nothing. Shen Guihua sighed: "You, please be more careful in the future. Don't let others deceive you with just a few words. Fortunately, Xiao Man is here this time. Otherwise, I'm afraid you will be a real person in this life." It’s ruined.”

Xiangxing's eyes were already swollen from crying, and the circles under her eyes turned red again after listening to her mother's words.

Lin Xiaoman shook his head at Shen Guihua and signaled her to stop talking. What if she made Lin Xiangxing too much to think about?

When he returned home, Lin Erhu sat at the door of the west wing and watched everyone build a house. The sweet smell of sour plum soup floated in the yard.

More than 20 people are building a house together, and the speed is impressive. The foundation was laid yesterday, and it was built three feet high in the middle of the morning. If we continue at this speed, we will be able to build the walls of the main house tomorrow. As for the upper part, Liang will have another good day.

Lin Xiaoman softly told Lin Erhu what happened at Xiangxing's house, and also told him Lu Jin's identity. Lin Erhu was surprised when he heard this, "That cold-faced young master is the new magistrate of our county. ?Looks weird, but he is a nice person."

"I'm going to the patriarch's house at noon to help with the cooking. You just stay at home. I'll come back and bring you whatever you want to eat."

"No, I went there in the morning and bought more than 100 big buns, and then I cooked a big pot of noodles at noon."

Lin Xiaoman looked at the buns that Lin Erhu bought. They were from the breakfast shop at the entrance of the park. They tasted good. They were priced at one yuan and a half each. She could eat ten in one meal, and Lin Erhu could eat five, and he would cook another one. You can be full with pot noodles.

"Sister, when I came back, I saw Grandma Liu there. Grandma Liu asked us if our mushrooms were still for sale. She asked me about a farmhouse and said they harvested mountain mushrooms. If they do the best and are of good quality,

Pine mushrooms cost RMB 150 per catty, hazel mushrooms cost RMB 60 per catty. We accept those of different quality, but the price will be lower. We also accept other mushrooms, and we will decide the price when we meet."

"That's good. I'm still worried that all the money I earned before will be spent. Grandma Liu has been a big help. I'll call Grandma Liu first, and I'll go there tomorrow when I'm not busy."

After saying that, Lin Xiaoman took her mobile phone and went over there. When the mobile phone connected to the signal, she saw the call and message from Grandma Liu.

I dialed a number, but when I was about to hang up, Grandma Liu picked up the phone and asked, "Xiao Man, where have you two siblings been these days? I can't even get through on the phone."

Lin Xiaoman felt guilty and made up an excuse to fool him. Grandma Liu said: "The person I introduced to you is named Qi. Just call her Aunt Qi. She opened a farmhouse near the Chengnan Expressway. Her little fool

Chicken stewed with mushrooms is particularly famous. If you tell her that I introduced it, she will know."

After thanking Grandma Liu, Lin Xiaoman hung up the phone and called Grandma Liu again. When the call was connected, it was a woman's voice, which sounded refreshing, "Hey! Who are you?"

Lin Xiaoman said: "Aunt Qi, I was introduced by Grandma Liu to sell mushrooms."

The woman immediately smiled and said: "Oh, you are the girl selling mushrooms in the market, right? I have bought mushrooms from you, they are quite good, but I haven't seen you come over these days. Have you finished harvesting the mushrooms on the mountain?"

"Well, I've picked almost all the mushrooms on the mountain. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to sell them because they would spoil, so I dried all the mushrooms in the sun. If Aunt Qi wants them, I'll send them over tomorrow."

"Okay, bring some over here first and let me take a look. If it's good, I'll keep more from you."

"Yeah, don't worry, Aunt Qi, I use the best mushrooms, and we throw away the bad ones."

"Hey, why are you throwing them all away? You can sell the bad ones if they are dried, and you can make money by selling them cheaper."

Lin Xiaoman smiled naively, "I'm afraid that mushrooms that don't sell well will ruin our reputation, and others won't take care of our business in the future."

Aunt Qi also laughed, "You kid is really here. I'll add you later and send you the location. You can just bring the mushrooms over tomorrow."

Not long after hanging up the phone, Aunt Qi sent an application to add a friend. After Lin Xiaoman approved it, the two chatted for a few more words. Aunt Qi asked Lin Xiaoman to send her a picture of the mushroom.

Lin Xiaoman came back here and took a few photos and sent them over. After Aunt Qi saw them, she directly asked Lin Xiaoman to send 100 kilograms over tomorrow.

Hazel mushrooms, pine mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, white shiitake mushrooms, thigh mushrooms, chanterelles, hericium... As long as Lin Xiaoman has it here, she wants some.

Especially the most expensive mushrooms, she wants them all.

After the business was settled, Lin Xiaoman opened the box and took out a pack of Orleans-flavored roast chicken ingredients, a pack of five-spice powder and two large packs of dry ingredients. After unpacking them, they were all wrapped in oil paper bags.

I also took two cans of fine salt and put them both in a large basket, as well as the bamboo sticks I bought earlier.

Thinking of the fish Lu Jin mentioned, Lin Xiaoman took a few more bags of boiled fish ingredients, unpacked them and packed them separately.

When they arrived at the patriarch's house again, Lin Dawu was leading people to kill chickens and sheep. Shen Guihua, the second mistress and Lin Daqiang's daughter-in-law, Hao, were sitting by the big basin plucking chicken feathers.

Seeing Lin Xiaoman coming, the second grandmother said to Mrs. Hao: "Go and make Xiaoman a bowl of sugar water."

"Hey." Mr. Hao wiped his hands and was about to stand up, but was stopped by Lin Xiaoman, "Aunt Daqiang, stop being busy, I'm not thirsty."

"I've cooked it and let it dry. You can drink it when you're thirsty!"

After Mr. Hao finished speaking, he got up and went to the kitchen without waiting for Lin Xiaoman to refuse again.

Lin Dawu asked: "Xiao Man, what else can I be used for?"

Lin Xiaoman pointed to the bricks outside the yard that were being used to make a kang and said, "Bring in a few bricks and let's build two stoves in the yard."
