Time Travel: My Wife Is Busy in Farming

Chapter 258 Only the eldest brother is the most sober in the whole family
Now the pepper seedlings in the small garden have grown up, almost as tall as a chopstick. Those seedlings are growing very well. If they are gathered together, they will probably grow flowers in a while. As soon as those flowers fall, little peppers begin to grow.

By that time, his small garden was full of peppers, which Tang Xiaoman thought was a very beautiful thing.

"Sister Sun, after my pepper seedling experiment is successful, you can also grow peppers with me."

When Mrs. Sun heard this, her eyes were full of doubts, "Wouldn't it be better to plant some rice? Why plant peppers?"

Tang Xiaoman knows that these people's thinking is still stuck in the past, but if they can grow peppers, the market will be very big, and they can make more money in the future. By then, let alone buying food, they can also buy other daily necessities. Use this instead.

"Sister Sun, this chili is actually from overseas. You have rarely seen it before, but it is used more in cooking in later generations. It is also a very important seasoning. It can be used in many places, and the price will also be It’s relatively high, so it has great planting value.”

Tang Xiaoman explained that Sun was still a little confused, but there was no need to worry. In the future, Tang Xiaoman would also promote this technology of growing peppers to the whole village. He hoped that other people in the village would follow his lead. , there will be a good harvest in the future.

Wang Er quickly pulled his daughter-in-law back and said, "Hurry up and go home to cook. You are still chatting here!"

As a result, Mrs. Sun felt very embarrassed. She seemed to feel that she had lost her sense of value, so she hurried away from Tang Xiaoman's house with Wang Er.

Before Wang Er left, he secretly told Su Pingan something that troubled Su Pingan.

It turned out that Wang Er saw Su Ping'an's eldest brother Su Wangcai carrying rice at a grain store in the town yesterday. Wang Er knew that the villagers in Xinghua Village were now in the busy farming season and had no time to work part-time.

But Su Wangcai worked part-time here. Wang Er went over to ask. Su Wangcai didn't say anything, but just smiled bitterly, as if he had something to hide.

After Su Ping'an learned about this, he began to worry about whether something had happened at home.

Su Ping'an couldn't pretend to be worried, so he told Tang Xiaoman about it. Tang Xiaoman thought for a while and said: "Brother went to work in a rice shop in the town, why not come to our workshop to help. But now is not the right time. Is it busy time for farming? The family is in need of help, why isn’t he doing farm work at home?”

This was what Su Pingan was worried about. He sighed and said, "How about this? I'll find an opportunity to ask about the situation another day."

There was no other day. The next day, Su Ping'an drove the carriage to the rice shop in the town. After first sending Tang Xiaoman to the jam stall, he rushed to the rice shop that Wang Er told him yesterday to check out the situation.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the rice shop, he saw Su Wangcai walking out of the rice shop carrying four bags of rice, preparing to carry it to the carriage at the door.

The owner of the rice shop is a middle-aged fat man with a sinister face, directing several other porters to move rice. It seems that this boss is also quite stingy. Su Wangcai's physical strength is obviously not up to par. This is just a labor-intensive job.

Su Pingan couldn't stand it anymore, got off the carriage and walked to Su Wangcai.

Helping Su Wangcai unload the bags of rice on his back onto the carriage, Su Wangcai then looked up and saw that the person coming was his brother Su Pingan. At this time, Su Ping'an had already put on expensive silk clothes, dressed like a scholar, and after her legs healed, she walked with wind and full of aura. In addition, she stepped out of a very luxurious carriage. , Su Wangcai thought it was some wealthy customer who came to the store to buy rice, so he didn't even dare to raise his head.

The shop owner didn't expect that this man would actually come over to help his men with their work. Although his face was unhappy, he didn't say anything else. He just said, "Su Wangcai, hurry up. Let's finish talking and continue." Come back to work, don’t delay!”

Su Wangcai nodded repeatedly.

Su Ping'an grabbed Su Wangcai aside and asked hurriedly: "Brother, why are you working here? It's the busy farming season. You are not helping at home but you come here..."

When Su Wangcai heard this, he was so aggrieved that he almost cried.

"It's not that I won't do it, it's that there's no way I can do it!"

"The farm work in this family used to be done by me, your second brother, and your father, but now it's time. They don't work in the fields. Our mother said that in the future, with the help of my little sister, I can fly up the branches and become a tree. When the time comes, Prince Gong will come and marry our little sister to the palace as a princess. Our family doesn’t need to farm anymore and be a farmer. I can’t do all the work in the fields alone, right? I don’t care, but I also know that they are just dreaming. Then why did Prince Gong fall in love with our little sister? When we returned to Beijing together, Prince Gong didn’t come to see her off. What on earth were they thinking? "

Su Wangcai became very angry when he said this. Su Ping'an could feel that the whole family was just such normal people now.

Su Ping'an knew that this was the result of family members cooperating to force the honest man out of his eldest brother. His second brother Su Xiangdong had always been a lazy man. Although he also worked, he was so grinding that others kicked him in the back. It's up to him to move. Now that Old Man Su is ill, he can't do much work. Old Mrs. Wang could still help with the work before. But now that she has returned from the capital, she seems to be a different person. She thinks of herself as a city person everywhere and looks down on this. Look. Not that.

With the current situation at home, if Su Wangcai didn't come out of the house, he would probably starve to death.

No matter how filial Su Wangcai was, he couldn't stand this anymore. He was determined to leave home and stop hanging out with those people.

Last night Tang Xiaoman taught Su Ping'an and said that if the eldest brother is willing, he can come to our workshop to help carry the goods, so that he can rest assured that his family will help to watch over it.

Su Ping'an and Su Wangcai may have been talking here for a little too long. The boss over there was not happy and directly urged Su Wangcai to go back to work at the top of his voice.

Su Wangcai was about to go back to work. Su Ping'an said to Su Wangcai: "Brother, don't go there. Do you think you can do such a heavy job? In the future, the body will be finished."

"What should I do?"

Su Wangcai also knew that the work here was not easy, and if he exerted any effort, it would be a kind of damage to the body.

The money was earned, but the body was also exhausted.

Trading one's life for money is something like this.
