Concubine's plan
Chapter 23
After lunch, Xun Yingju carefully spread out the seeds of tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and peppers. Now she divided the seeds into three parts, leaving one part. The other two parts were wrapped in oil paper to prevent them from sprouting due to moisture. The remaining part My son is going to open some land in the yard and plant it.
The area on the deed is quite large, covering five acres of land. The house and yard only occupy half an acre of land, and the remaining land is enough for her to grow these vegetables.
The land was no longer a problem, so Xun Yingju looked at other vegetable types, including cabbage, green vegetables, and leeks. There are actually loofah seeds, which are great things. They don’t take up a lot of space, but they produce a lot. They’re very suitable for planting in the mountains. Moreover, luffa is not only edible, but the old luffa can also be used for other purposes. It may be able to generate additional income. If you have the money, build a house first. This thatched house leaks air everywhere. It is okay in summer, but it will freeze to death in winter. It must be Build a new house before winter.
After thinking about it for a long time, she felt that she was too short of money. If there was a way to make a lot of money now, she would definitely pounce on it like a moth to a flame. Although it was still daytime, she was going to sleep and dreaming. Xun Yingju started to take a nap and got up immediately when she heard someone talking in the hospital.
After getting dressed, she simply did a double bun. After arriving in the courtyard, she found Aunt Cai and her daughter Erya coming over together. She smiled and said,"Auntie and Erya are here.""
"Ju girl, I have something to tell you."Aunt Cai spoke with a somewhat twitchy and embarrassed expression on her face.
This is a strange thing. Aunt Cai is an enthusiastic person. She usually helps the Xun family a lot, but rarely accepts help from the Xun family. Today, Aunt Cai is the first The first time she spoke for herself, Xun Yingju naturally couldn't refuse and said with a smile:"Auntie, tell me what you have to say.""
"My Erya has nothing to do at home. I was wondering if I could come to your house to do some work?"After hearing Xun Yingju's words, she was not just trying to cater to people's temper, she immediately explained what she meant.
"Okay, I was just thinking about finding someone. I came to Hongshan Village for the first time, and I didn’t know the details of the people in the village. I didn’t dare to find people to do things at will. Sister Erya is willing to come, so she is naturally welcome. The salary is the same as my aunt, ten cents a day. Pay wages on the same day."Xun Yingju laughed.
I didn't expect Xun Yingju to be so easy to talk to. Aunt Cai couldn't react. After a moment of silence, she clapped her hands and said with a smile:"Great, my second wife can also get wages this time."
Ms. Bai and the two little girls on the side were a little confused. They didn't understand what Xun Yingju was going to do. Although Xun Yingju also told them about this at noon, they originally thought that one person would be enough, but they didn't expect to invite two people at once. The Xun family returned to Hongshan Village for a few days, and the weather started to get warmer. Xun Yingju wanted to dig out the ground next to the yard as soon as possible. She arranged for
Yu Sheng and Chun Mian to cook hawthorn cake in the same pot, and Yu Sheng used a smaller iron pot to make jujube juice.
Bai, Aunt Cai and Erya cleaned up the hawthorns together. When villagers came to sell hawthorns, Bai received them. As long as the hawthorns and jujubes were okay, they could keep them all. It can be said that they sent as many as they wanted.
Xun Yingju and Aunt Cai borrowed farm tools and ignored them. These people worked and went to the back of the yard to plow the ground. In her previous life, she was best at chemistry and biology, so farming could not be difficult for her.
When she arrived at the place, Xun Yingju set up a pergola and took a look. She found that the field was good, but it had been abandoned for many years. , became a wasteland. It was a bit difficult to reclaim it. Fortunately, she was not in a hurry. She took a sickle to cut off the weeds on the surface first, then turned over the soil and leveled the land. She only cleared an area of about ten square meters. Then it got dark.
She didn't have the habit of working in the dark. She returned to the courtyard with the farm tools and found that Aunt Cai and Sister Erya had not left yet. They were sitting and processing hawthorns. She put down the farm tools and went directly into the kitchen.
Fortunately When Xun Hongde lived here, his family built several stoves, some big and some small. I don’t know why they built such a big stove at that time. Xun Yingju happened to be cheap, and the two pots he bought, one big and one small, were suitable for use. The new pot Chunmian He Yusheng had already washed it and put it aside.
After carefully looking at the stove, he went outside and repaired the imperfections on the stove with Niba, and directly installed the new pot. Then he smiled and said to Chun Mian and Yusheng :"From now on, use a big pot to make hawthorn cake, and a small pot to make jujube juice."
Chun Mian and Yu Sheng didn't have any objections. There will be no problem if they do as they are told.
After doing this, Xun Yingju returned to the thatched house, took out twenty coins, walked to Aunt Cai and Sister Erya, and handed over the twenty coins He handed it to Aunt Cai and said with a smile:"Aunt, it's getting late. I'll go to work tomorrow morning, and then I'll get off work and go home at midnight.""
"Hey, okay, okay, we'll come over early tomorrow."Taking the copper plate, Aunt Cai was already smiling from ear to ear. Women and girls stayed at home during the off-season. Some girls with clever skills would embroider some handkerchiefs and sell them in the town. It would take several days to sell them. A few pennies, but I didn't expect that the mother and daughter would get twenty pennies after working here for one day.
Xun Yingju just smiled slightly and did not say anything to stop her. People in the countryside are very simple. As long as they do things according to their wishes, they will be happy..
After sending Aunt Cai away, Xun Yingju was about to make dinner. She scratched her head and wondered why she forgot to buy meat. She was so excited in the morning that she forgot such an important thing. Hey, I must buy more when I go to town next time.
Dinner is still the same The brown rice and pickles they ate looked simple, so Xun Yingju rummaged her belly and thought about making some vegetables. She remembered seeing soybeans in the grain store and thought it would be good to have some bean sprouts to eat. In her first year in the village, There was nothing at home, so she had to spend money to buy it. When Bai saw her daughter looking at the food in a daze, she asked with some confusion:"Girl Ju, what are you thinking about?""
"Ah, it's okay."Suddenly woken up by Mr. Bai, Xun Yingju was startled at first, but quickly calmed down and asked with a smile:"Mother, is there anyone selling hawthorn and wild dates today?"
"Well, today I harvested another 300 kilograms of hawthorn and 50 kilograms of wild dates. Bai said with a smile, always with a smile on her face when she said this.
Seeing Bai's proud look, Xun Yingju was also very happy. In her previous life, her parents were in business and had little time to spend with her. After graduating from university, she entered The army rarely went home, and after becoming a special forces member, the number of times went home even less, so the relationship with the parents was very normal. Now that I spend time with Bai every day, the two of them have become close. When
Bai sees her daughters eating together, Knowing that she likes to eat vegetables, but at this time of year, the vegetables have not been planted yet, but the seeds will be planted soon, so I asked:"Have you bought the vegetable seeds?""
"Well, there are some new dishes. I will start raising seedlings tomorrow. With the vegetable seedlings, my land is almost ready."Xun Yingju explained with a smile.
There was no words all night, and at dawn the next day, the leisurely carriage entered Hongshan Village and stopped in front of the Xun family house. The waiter who helped Xun Yingju weigh her body yesterday came here. No one got out of the car yet. He shouted:"Is Miss Xun here?"
