Happy peasant girl

Chapter 355 Meeting the old friend (2)
"Jin Niang, you really don't know me anymore? No wonder, you and I only met once back then, but you won't forget the embroidery of lotus under the moon, right?" Lin Qingxi looked at her with a smile .

Of course, Jinniang will never forget the picture of lotus under the moon. Although she didn't earn a penny from that embroidery and pasted a lot of good threads, it was the first time that the embroidery could shock her. And after that, the owner of the embroidery asked her to sell a few pieces of embroidery with the same stitch, and some of them were sold to the capital, earning a lot of money for herself.

However, why did my new owner suddenly mention that embroidery?Before Jinniang came to Yunzhou, she didn't ask her about the situation of her future master. Anyway, her heart was ashamed, and it would be the same wherever she went.

Think about it carefully, I told the embroiderer in the carriage on the way here that their new owner is from Linjia Village, Lishui Bay, and the embroidery sellers were from Linjia Village, Fuan County, and they were all from Linjia Village. one person?

"Girl, who are you?" Jinniang raised her head to look at Linqingxi again in a hurry.

"My name is Lin Qingxi. Back then, I went to your embroidery shop to sell embroidery products with my eldest brother Lin Qingyun and third brother Lin Qingfei." Lin Qingxi reminded her.

"Brother Qingfei, remember, remember!" Naturally, Jinniang would not forget the three brothers and sisters of the Lin family, but she never thought that the thin girl back then would be so beautiful and confident now, and become her new master.

"Jinniang, why did you suddenly close Fuxiu Zhuang and disappear?" Lin Qingxi asked curiously.

Seeing Lin Qingxi asking again and again, Jinniang finally spoke.It turned out that when she was on the way to the capital to deliver embroidery, she fell in love with a man. Unexpectedly, she met an unkind man. After taking all her belongings and following the man to leave Fu'an Town in a hurry, she discovered that the man already had a wife and concubine in his family, and she was already pregnant. She was pregnant, so she had to be that man's concubine.

At the beginning, Jinniang wanted to fight for the man she liked and the fetus in her womb. Who would have thought that being the mistress was not a good person, not only killing the child in her stomach, but also beating her half to death. Supported by her natal family, that man also ignored her, and when he had a new love, he forgot the old one.

Not only that, but that man was a good gambler and lost all of Jinniang's dowry and all the money, and finally sold her to a rich family to be an embroiderer.

If she didn't give the man the monthly money every month, she would suffer a severe beating. Jinniang, who couldn't stand it anymore, escaped from her husband's house, and was finally arrested and returned. The master's family also sold her again, and then returned to Yunzhou.

Lin Qingxi did not expect that Jinniang's experience in these years would be so rough, she is a miserable woman.

After listening to Jinniang's narration, Linqingxi returned the contract of sale to her, and said: "Jin Niang, you were kind enough to help me back then, and now I am able to help you. This is your contract of sale. One is a silver note of 500 taels, you are free, take them and leave."

"Girl, you can't take this servant! Back then, the slave was planning for herself. The embroidery that the third elder brother took, the slave also earned a lot of money. In the end, it was you who helped me!" Jinniang thought so Thinking about it, the few pieces of embroidery that Linqingxi took back then helped her earn a lot.

As the saying goes, goodness is rewarded with goodness, Jinniang was so kind to the old Lin brothers and sisters back then, Linqingxi did not treat her badly today.

"Jinniang, no matter what you say, it was because of your generosity and kindness that our family was able to have enough to eat. You take this deed of sale, and you also keep the money. You are very good at doing business, and your embroidery skills are excellent. I believe that Your days will be better and better in the future." Lin Qingxi said.

If it was the matter of being sold as a slave by that cruel man back then, Jinniang must have been eager to get this contract of sale, but now nothing is important to her. Live like an empty shell.

"Thank you, girl, I really don't need it! Now, the servants only ask for a meal and a bed. Since the girl appreciates the craftsmanship of the servants, the servants are willing to follow you, so please keep the servants." before.

Jinniang called herself a "servant" one by one, and Linqingxi was really upset. It seems that the unbearable life in the past has hit Jinniang hard. There is no family, the child is dead, and the husband is a beast. Nearly ten years have passed.

Lin Qingxi didn't force her, just said: "Okay, I promise you! However, you take this deed of sale and the 500 taels of silver note first, and you can leave whenever you want. Back then, you didn't really want to learn Hunan embroidery? My sister-in-law can teach you."

"My servant thank you for your kindness, I don't need these things, I'd better keep them with you." Jin Niang said with a wry smile.

"Okay! Ruoxin, let's send Jinniang to Nayuan first!" Jinniang couldn't untangle her heart, and Linqingxi couldn't do anything about it. She just let her decide.

After Ruoxin left with Jinniang, Ling Lan walked in excitedly: "Girl, the production of eggs in the chicken coop and duck coop has begun to increase. If they all hatch this time, there will be tens of thousands more eggs." It's just a chicken and a duck."

For more than half a year, she has run around the lily of the valley rice field and the mountain villa. The chickens, ducks and rabbits that she had raised in the deep mountains have now been trained from wild to domesticated by her, and after artificial incubation, the number of chickens and ducks has rapidly increased. caught up with the rabbit.

"Ling Lan, after you hatched chickens and ducklings from eggs and duck eggs this time, you took out some of the cubs and sold them to the villagers of Linjia Village at a low price. Aunt Sun and the others have come to ask me these days, They were originally sent to find you, but you were nowhere to be seen." Lin Qingxi said.

Seeing the chickens and ducks in the rice field, many villagers also want to feed them, and the teal among them is the best "weapon" to deal with apple snails in the rice fields. It is too time-consuming and laborious to catch apple snails only with bamboo chips and people.

"Understood girl! These days, I've been busy planting carrots for rabbits. The secret garden has already been planted, and the rice garden is almost finished. But girl, we are feeding more and more rabbits. You can’t just keep them in the garden all the time, right?” Lily of the Valley’s thinking has changed very quickly, although many times she is reluctant to part with the poultry and livestock she feeds, but feeding them is for eating and selling, otherwise it’s meaningless to keep them. Also wasting food.

"I will find a way to solve the rabbit problem. By the way, you can save some of the eggs and duck eggs that you collect in two days. I plan to make some new things and sell them." Now my subordinates have accepted Han Xiao He Wenfei, like a tiger with wings added, was just thinking about other ways to make money.

"Your subordinate obeys the order. Can someone send the eggs and duck eggs to this yard tomorrow?" Ling Lan asked.

"Don't be so fast, three days later, I still have some things I haven't found." Lin Qingxi planned to marinate part of the eggs and duck eggs, and make the other part into preserved eggs.
