Traveling through the money-making life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 1181 Zhang Family’s Silkworm House

"Then I'll call you Rou girl, so kind!"

In fact, not all merchants are good people. The business of the Zhang family is far worse than before. Master Zhang and Mrs. Zhang don’t have that much thought. Originally, they wanted to find a wife for their son, but his son’s temper was too much. Strange, it's past thirty, not to mention daughter-in-law, I haven't even held a woman's hand.

The life-long event couldn't be solved, so the two old people simply ignored it. Now they want to find a long-term meal ticket for their son, so that they can eat enough every day.

Obviously, this is impossible. Their family has already left 28 cooks, and now they can only cook by themselves.

It's really miserable to say the least.

"Ma'am, I heard that your family does silk business, and you have a lot of silkworms in your garden. Can you open my eyes? If it's inconvenient, forget it."

Chen Rou didn't force it, she just wanted to see what a large-scale silkworm breeding was like. When she was in Taoyuan Village, she had seen family free-range breeding. Didn't Xifeng say to give her a few good-bred silkworms?Why is there no movement yet?
"How can I? I'll take you there. Since the king of silkworms died, the silkworms at home are easier to see, and there's nothing to be ashamed of."

Mrs. Zhang didn't shy away from it at all. Anyway, most of her business now comes from others looking at her son's face, and no one can buy this kind of favor business.

Following Mrs. Zhang, Chen Rou went to the backyard. The Zhang mansion was just like the merchants. The outside of the door seemed ordinary, but the world inside was very big. The backyard was connected to an artificial hill with many mulberry trees growing on it. The big house opposite is Zhang's sericulture house.

When I entered the room, I saw some shelves neatly placed in the room, and sieves were placed on the shelves uniformly. Silkworms in the sieves were wriggling. From time to time, a female worker fed some mulberry leaves to the silkworms.

Chen Rou was used to this kind of sight, so she didn't feel very surprised. She walked to the sieve, looked at the white and fat silkworms she was eating, and immediately felt good.

According to the experience learned from Taoyuan Village, Chen Rou carefully checked the environment. The floor of the house is very flat, there are convective windows at the front and back, and there are even corner windows, which is very suitable for the environment of silkworm rearing.

Mrs. Zhang at the side saw her looking here and there, just thought it was a novelty, and didn't think much about it. After a while, the maid hurried over.

"It's not good, ma'am, the young master has messed up the pot, and the cook who was invited yesterday was beaten away again."

Mrs. Zhang's face twitched, and she suddenly became ill.

As a wife, she can't always be an old lady who cooks, right? The cook who was hired just now is gone again?
"You didn't stop me?"

"Ma'am, how dare we dare, you don't know, young master...Young master, this time he is serious, grabbing a handful of uncooked rice and eating there."

"What, my son, how can this be..."

When Mrs. Zhang heard that her son had gone to eat raw rice, she was so anxious that she even ignored Chen Rou and rushed to the kitchen.

The little maid chopped off her feet in a hurry, and followed her wife.

Chen Rou is an outsider, so it's not good for her to stay here all the time. She plans to leave after finding Mrs. Zhang and Master Zhang.

Everyone should have reached the kitchen by now, so she followed behind the two of them.

When we got to the kitchen, we didn't see the expected scene of beating chicken and eggs, but instead saw Zhang Erhu sitting alone on the table, with twenty bowls full of noodle soup in front of him.

And at another table, Shen Zhuo was chopping vegetables...
