Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11620

Facing Yang Ruoqing's questioning, Sun smiled gently, "Your father and I have enough to eat. Don't forget that our family has a vegetable garden at the south end of the village. There are so many vegetables that we can't finish them. Your father and I are thinking about sending two baskets to your restaurant in town."

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "Mom, the vegetables in your vegetable garden are more than you can eat, but if you really want to supply the restaurant, they are not enough to fill your stomach."

Sun laughed dryly, "That's true. How about... I ask your father to buy two more acres of land next year, and I will use those two acres to grow vegetables to supply our restaurant?"

Yang Ruoqing turned her head and looked at Sun: "Mom, are you serious? You are already this old, and you still want to be a vegetable farmer?"

Sun said seriously, "I am serious. I am not kidding. I just want to find something to do. Otherwise, I will be bored."

"You're not idle either," Yang Ruoqing said, "You grow vegetables and raise chickens and ducks. There's always work to do every day."

"That's not enough. I want to order more dishes so that your restaurant can buy less and save money!"

"Mom, I appreciate your kindness, but if Da'an and Xiao'an knew about this, they would scold me to death!"

"How can I? I just said it was my own idea..."

"No matter whose opinion it is, mother, please give up the idea of ​​becoming a vegetable farmer. You have raised us siblings in the first half of your life and have suffered enough. Now you should live a leisurely life and stop thinking about those unnecessary things."

"You kid, this is a serious matter, I want to share some of the burden with you..."

"If mother really wants to help us share the burden, then we can maintain the status quo, grow some vegetables, and raise some chickens and ducks to pass the time. When the vegetables are ready, send them to us a few times. When the chickens and ducks grow up, we can come back for a meal and you can kill two. That's enough!"

"Oh well!"

"Mom, let's talk about something else,"

"Say what?"

"Do you dare to make a bet with me?"

"What's the bet on?"

"I'll bet that my fourth aunt will bring that basket of vegetables back to the old house..."

"Qing'er, I have to tell you about this. Although your fourth aunt is a little greedy, but I asked her to bring some food to your aunt and your two sisters-in-law, she dare not refuse. There is no need to bet on this matter, she will definitely give it."

"Mom, please don't interrupt me so quickly," Yang Ruoqing said, "I didn't say that my fourth aunt withheld the vegetables and didn't share them with my two sisters-in-law. I'm betting with you on something else..."

"Oh? Anything else?"

"I bet when Fourth Aunt gives them the food, she won't say you asked her to bring it, she will say she gave it to them herself."

"No way? She wouldn't tell such a lie, right?"

"Haha, tell it or not, I'll get someone to go over and eavesdrop."

Yang Ruoqing snapped her fingers.

A dark figure came down from the wall connecting the third house and the Luo family's backyard. "What do you want, Madam?"

This black shadow was Yang Ruoqing's secret guard. Luo Fengtang had taken all of his secret guards away when he returned to the military camp.

The secret guards who now stay around the Luo family to secretly protect the safety of the Luo family’s lives and property were all trained by Yang Ruoqing.

"Go to the old house and help me monitor my fourth aunt."

A frown fell over the secret guard's head. Madam spent a lot of money to train them. Not only are they to protect the Luo family, but they also have to do the job of eavesdropping?

"What's wrong? What's the problem?" Yang Ruoqing noticed that the secret guard was not as decisive as before in accepting the mission this time, and was afraid that he didn't hear it clearly, "Do you want me to repeat it?"

The secret guard came back to his senses and hurriedly leaned forward and clasped his fists: "I obey your orders!"

After he finished speaking, he disappeared without a trace. This scene made Sun, who was standing next to him, stunned, and several vegetables in her hands were washed away by the water.

"This is too amazing, too fast, my eyes are dizzy..."

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled, "As for martial artists, their mobility is different from that of ordinary people."

Sun nodded woodenly. It was truly an eye-opener.

Old house, main entrance.

Mrs. Liu was humming a little tune and walking to the door of the main hall with a basket full of vegetables. She happened to meet Mrs. Mo who was carrying some dry food out of the house, apparently going to the fields.

Even though it was drizzling today, Yang Yongqing would still go to the fields to work. He would not go out unless it rained heavily.

"Wife Yongqing, why are you still working in the fields when it's raining?" Liu asked knowingly.

Mrs. Mo said, "The children are all left to their grandmother. I have to go to the fields to help Yongqing."

"With your thin arms and legs, what can you do? You might as well deliver the dry food and come back quickly, before you get caught in the rain and get sick and waste money on medicine!"

"Haha, although I have thin arms and legs, I am just a peasant woman. How can a peasant woman be so delicate? I am not as lucky as you, Fourth Aunt, who sits at home and has no worries about food and clothing. People like us can only eat when we have to work."

"Hey, what's the point? I have to work, too. Look, I went out early in the morning to get this basket full of vegetables!"

Following the direction of Liu's finger, little Mo noticed the basket full of seasonal vegetables, fruits and melons in Liu's house. They seemed to have been washed, and were clean and juicy, which was pleasing to the eye.

Little Mo was secretly surprised. How could this Fourth Aunt, who was usually so lazy, take care of the vegetable garden so well? She was almost catching up with the Third and Fifth Aunts.

"Look, are these cucumbers, eggplants, etc. fresh and tender?" Mrs. Liu casually moved a few vegetables in the basket and asked Mrs. Mo.

Little Madam Mo said what she meant and nodded gently: "This dish looks really pleasing to the eye."

"Haha, it tastes even better," Liu said with a smile, and casually took a few loofahs and cucumbers and stuffed them into Little Mo's hands: "Here, take it!"

Little Madam Mo was stunned. She really didn't expect Madam Liu to be so generous? She just stuffed so many dishes at her while she was talking?

Little Mrs. Mo also changed her attitude immediately, "Aunt Fourth, no, no, you worked so hard to grow these vegetables, and you washed them so clean, how can you give them to me..."

"Hey, we're family, so let's not talk behind each other's backs. Here you go, just take it!"

Liu held Xiao Mo's hand, blinked, and signaled her not to say anything.

"Hurry up and give Qing Xiaozi some dry food. I should go back too."

"Oh, okay, then I would like to thank Fourth Aunt for giving me such a delicious dish."

"Why are you being so polite? Go to the fields quickly. Go quickly. Don't let Qing wait anxiously!"

Mrs. Liu waved to Mrs. Mo, and after watching her leave, she raised her eyebrows proudly and walked into the main hall of Old Yang's house carrying a basket.

When she passed by the door of the third room, she found that it was ajar.

Liu knocked on the door: "Is Liu'er in the room?"

"Aunt Four? I'm here. The door is not closed, come in!"

Liu pushed the door open and entered the room, seeing Zhao Liu'er sitting at the table with a small stool in front of her. Da Niuniu was sitting on the stool, and Zhao Liu'er was combing and braiding her hair.

Zhao Liuer had her hair tied up with one hand and a comb in the other, with a hairband in her mouth. No wonder her speech was a little unclear before.

When Zhao Liuer saw Liu come in, Liu started talking before she could say anything.

"I just came from the vegetable garden at the entrance of the village. I got a lot of vegetables. Doesn't Big Girl like to eat eggplants? Here, I'll give you a few big ones!"

As Liu spoke, she took out a few large green-skinned eggplants from the basket and placed them on the table with a smile.
