Chapter 100
Since the last little hen at home made soup, Xiaodouzi has never gone to the field to cut wild vegetables. Now that he finally has chicks, he can't wait to go to the field to cut wild vegetables and eat all the chicks and ducks.
Feed him well so that when he grows up, he can eat big chicken legs again...
"Grandma! There are so many chicks and ducks. I'm going to cut wild vegetables in the fields to feed them!" His eyes were shining, and his chubby little face was full of joy: "When the chickens grow up, Grandma can
If you don’t make soup, Xiaodouzi can eat big chicken legs again!”
Jiang Yan pursed her lips and smiled, leaned over and pinched his fat little face: "Let the two brothers over there... Xiao Shitou and... Tie Hammer go with them." She remembered that the two sons born to Lin Gen were named
With this name, he is about the same age as Lin Feng, so a group of children can play together.
"Hammer, little stone, you two come here and take your brother to the field to cut wild vegetables. You two can do it, and my brother will let him play by himself." Lin Gensheng waved his hand, and two little guys covered in mud ran over.
They nodded seriously, each person holding a basket and carrying the little beans went to the field.
Lin Bei was busy keeping accounts in the house. After getting pen and paper, his small leaf ledger was abandoned. The little guy was counting today's accounts with his fingers. He didn't go out.
Naturally, Feng didn't want to go out, so she stood behind him, raising her hands obediently and watching Lin Bei finish counting his fingers, and then continued to count his fingers.
Jiang Yan walked into the back room, took out the corn she bought earlier, and took out all the dried vegetables that Lin Dong and the brothers had stored in the cellar. She was a little hasty on the first day. She didn't buy any vegetables in the town, so she planned to make two.
There was a soup, a big bone to make mushroom stock, a dry vegetable to stew pork, and a fried old lettuce with oil residue. This old lettuce was bought by Lin Nan from someone in the village. The staple food was corn porridge and steamed buns.
After everything was placed in the kitchen, Zhang Yanzi and Lin Jun also rushed over. Together with Xie Chunhua, the three of them had a clear division of labor and a tacit understanding.
"Mom, there are still many people in our village who have old lettuce and dried vegetables. The vegetables in the field have also grown a lot. Do I still want to continue harvesting them?" Lin Xi moved all the vegetables into the kitchen. He is here today.
The family has been busy all morning, stacking neat bundles of firewood and going to the village to collect vegetables.
"Go on and collect them, they will be used at home these days." Jiang Yan continued: "Let's make the yard larger, set aside the chicken coops and duck pens, and put the sheep pens and horse pens into the back garden."
Lin Xi nodded repeatedly. Although he was very busy every day, he was full of energy. When he thought that his family was building a house, he was even more motivated. He smiled every day and looked forward to his future life.
Jiang Yan was busy in the kitchen for a while, and Lin Dong and others also closed the stall and returned home. Especially Wang Jinhua and Liu Xiaomeng, they ran non-stop to the kitchen. They both thought about making a big pot of rice for the workers at noon, and they were worried about coming back all morning.
I couldn't make it in time, so when I was sitting on Lin Gui Niu's cart, I couldn't help but urge him a few more times.
"Jin Hua Xiao Meng, you are back." Jiang Yan looked at the two people who were tired of their travels, and was annoyed that she had forgotten to tell them that she had invited the villagers to cook.
"Mom, we're back late. Let's start making lunch right now." Wang Jinhua immediately rolled up her sleeves and went to the kitchen. Liu Xiaomeng behind her also rolled up her sleeves.
Jiang Yan looked at the two of them funny: "Okay, just take a good rest when you get back. I'm so busy during this period. I'm not willing to let you rush back to cook lunch for dozens of people. I asked Aunt Lin and the others to come and help."
, you two should drink some water first, have a good rest, and then go and help out later." As he spoke, he poured two glasses of water for the two of them.
Wang Jinhua's eyes were slightly red, and she was shaking slightly while holding a bowl of glucose water. The distress in her mother-in-law's words warmed her heart like a stream of heat. Her own parents had never cared about her so much since she was a child. She choked and said seriously.
: "Mom, thank you, mother... my daughter-in-law is not tired at all..."
Liu Xiaomeng also had a grateful face. She sipped the sugar water in small sips, staring at her mother-in-law for a moment, and said from the bottom of her heart: "Mom, I will definitely honor you in the future! If you ask me to go east, I will never go west!"
I want to provide for you until you die!"
Wang Jinhua hurriedly said: "Me too, I will support my mother until she is old!"
Jiang Yan: "..."
There is no need to send me away in such a hurry...I feel like I can live for quite a long time...
At this time, Lin Nan led the village chief in hurriedly. The village chief said angrily: "Xiao Jiang, come out quickly. I won't enter the house. Let's go and measure the land now. I have to go to the mountain to see the bamboo rafts later."
, you should hold on tighter."
Jiang Yan ran out of the house, looked at the village chief yelling at the door, and intuitively told her what must have happened: "What's up, village chief, what happened."
The village chief said angrily: "What else could it be? The bamboo rafts built in our village were damaged by people or by big insects in the mountains. There is a big hole missing. I just came down from the mountains and gave it to
After you measure the land, I have to go up the mountain to take a look."
Jiang Yan was a little worried when she heard this. After all, her family now had to rely on this bamboo raft to divert water down the mountain to have water. She immediately said: "Okay, let's go measure the land now. Once the land is measured, I will follow you up the mountain."
Go and have a look.”
The village chief nodded immediately, and the group of people took the tools and headed towards the wasteland designated by Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan didn't understand how the village chief measured it, so she just put her request aside, since she didn't have the land in the barren mountain now.
The solution is to buy it all at once, so first buy the flat wasteland at the foot of the mountain.
The village chief greeted his two sons and began to measure the land according to the place indicated by Jiang Yan, starting from the bottom of the mountain and measuring upwards. A total of 55 acres of land were measured. The village chief gave a discounted price, which counted as 150 taels for the homestead.
Jiang Yan asked the village chief to allocate two more acres of land there, and the small bamboo forest happened to be included in it, which was counted as 6 taels of silver, for a total of 156 taels.
Jiang Yanxin passed by the village chief and paid the full amount directly after returning to the house. The village chief's hands were shaking when he held the silver. This was the first time he had held so much money and banknotes at once after being the village chief for so many years.
He had seen it a lot, but this was the first time he had held it in his hand. He was afraid that he would lose it, so he immediately hid it in his arms.
"Tomorrow morning I will go to the county to get you a seal, and transfer the land to your name as soon as possible, so as to save you many nights and dreams." If the money is lost, he can't afford to pay for it even if he sells it.
