Chapter 239 Harvesting Mustard Greens (1)
And looking at the things Lin Xiaoqiao bought, Widow Zheng felt that this little girl had a good eye for picking things.

As for Li Shi and Lin Xiaoxi, they had never bought such gorgeous jewelry and fabrics before, and they had never even touched that kind of rouge and gouache.

"Wow, this hairpin is so beautiful, I've never seen such beautiful jewelry in my life? You girl, you always miss your Aunt Zheng, why didn't you buy one for your mother, what a little white-eyed wolf. "Ms. Li was playing with the jewelry that Lin Xiaoqiao gave to Widow Zheng, and suddenly said with jealousy.

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoqiao looked at his own mother-in-law Li's awkward appearance, and wanted to cover her mouth and smile. At this moment, Lin Erniu quickly took out the exquisite box from her arms and handed it to Li. She said embarrassingly: "Daughter-in-law, don't worry, yours is with me."

Mrs. Li opened the box and took a look. It was exactly the same as Widow Zheng's, and a smile bloomed on her face immediately.

"When we bought this hairpin, my father snatched it away and put it in his arms. He said he would give it to my mother." Lin Xiaoqiao said with a smile.

After hearing this, Mrs. Li felt sweeter in her heart, but thinking of her embarrassment just now, she said to Lin Erniu, "Why didn't you show it earlier, I thought you didn't remember me. ?”

Lin Xiaoqiao and the others knew that Li Shi was embarrassed, so they didn't want to make fun of her anymore.

"Sister, this butterfly hairpin, isn't it pretty? Let's be a pair." Lin Xiaoqiao turned to discuss the hairpin with his sister.

Lin Xiaoxi is holding the butterfly hairpins in her hand, she really looks better the more she looks at them, she is at the age of beauty, but before that, she didn't have a piece of jewelry, so she really likes this pair of delicate butterfly hairpins.

Hearing his little sister's words, he nodded quickly and said, "It's really beautiful, little sister, you are so kind."

After hearing this, Erlang who was sitting next to him quit: "Sister, this is wrong, we bought these things together with my little sister, and my leg was almost broken just by walking, why did I just Is it okay to miss my little sister alone?"

"Eldest brother and second brother are both good, and dad is also good, but my younger sister is the best, she knows what my elder sister likes best." Lin Xiaoxi hurriedly added after listening to her second brother's complaint.

"That's about the same. How do we men know what your girls like. But when the second brother was in the provincial capital, no matter what fun he saw, he would buy it for you. This kind of heart is always worth it." Say hello." Erlang said like an old pedant, pretending to be serious.

Lin Xiaoxi nodded quickly, thanked the two brothers with a smile, thinking of their kindness, Erlang felt satisfied.

Everyone was looking at the things in their hands, and the room was full of joy and joy. At this time, Widow Zheng suddenly asked: "Girl, didn't you go to the provincial capital to investigate? We just took care of these, and it's business." Haven't reported it yet?"

Li Shi and Lin Xiaoxi also put down their things, waiting to hear the results of Lin Xiaoqiao's investigation.

Seeing this situation, Lin Xiaoqiao withdrew his playful face and said seriously: "I think the time is not ripe for us to open a shop in the provincial capital."

"What is this saying?" Widow Zheng asked.

Lin Xiaoqiao explained all the reasons she felt inappropriate: "We are too unfamiliar with the provincial capital, and the situation over there is much more complicated than that in Anping Town, so I think it is not a good idea to open a shop in the provincial capital now." It's an easy matter. This matter has to be discussed in the long run."

Widow Zheng had already expected this kind of result, but at that time Lin Xiaoqiao was full of confidence and said that she wanted to expand her business, so she didn't want to pour too much cold water on it, so she let them go to the provincial capital to have a look.

"Since it doesn't work, forget it, and don't be discouraged, girl Xiaoqiao, maybe there will be a chance in the future." Widow Zheng replied.

Lin Xiaoqiao has long been relieved. Although she didn't get her business done this time, she already felt very happy to be able to go to the provincial capital to have fun.

So, she smiled and said, "I know, opening a shop and doing business requires an opportunity. If we don't succeed now, it doesn't mean we won't do it in the future!"

Therefore, this matter of going to the provincial capital to open a shop and expand business can only come to an end for the time being...

Went for a stroll in the provincial capital, and after returning, he was still in the shop every day, running around the house, and occasionally went to the fields with Mrs. Li on his back to have a look, Lin Xiaoqiao lived a leisurely life despite being busy.

More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and it is now the end of October. The weather is getting colder and the new crop of wheat has already been sown in the fields.

The few acres of mustard greens planted by Lin Xiaoqiao before have grown large green leaves, and it's time to harvest them.

After lunch that day, Lin Xiaoqiao took his father to discuss the matter of harvesting mustard greens: "Father, I went to the field two days ago to have a look, and it's time to harvest our few acres of mustard greens." !"

"I also think it's time to collect it, so don't worry, Dad will go to the field to collect it for you in two days." Lin Erniu said to his daughter with a smile.

Listening to his father's words, it seemed that he wanted to take care of everything by himself, so Lin Xiaoqiao asked: "There are several acres of land, doesn't father want to do all the work by himself? ?”

Lin Erniuhan smiled and nodded, and said: "Just such a little work, dad alone is enough. I collect one mu of land a day, and it will be recovered in seven or eight days. Let's not bother with that, and then we will get it back." Who are you going to hire?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoqiao thought for a while, and then replied: "Father is working too hard alone, and his movements are slow, so please ask someone to help. I heard my aunt say a few days ago that it's cold now. , Uncle doesn’t have much work to do in the town, or you can ask Uncle to collect it for you, and we’ll pay him the wages.”

Lin Erniu thought for a while, then nodded and agreed, but he was a little curious about how the little girl would deal with the mustard greens this time, so he asked: "Girl, I see the mustard greens harvested from the several acres of land, what will happen? You have to have a thousand catties. How do you deal with it at that time, do you have a plan in your mind?"

Speaking of this, Lin Xiaoqiao remembered something and needed her father to help her, so she said to Lin Erniu: "Don't worry about this, my daughter is not the kind of person who likes to mess around. I won’t occupy your acres of land in vain to do useless things, just wait and see! Dad, go to the wine vat workshop in the town tomorrow and order ten big wines for me For the tank, get the biggest one, a tank can hold a hundred catties."
