Chapter 118

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Wulin and his wife moved to Li's house for convenience with Cui's permission. Lu Yumin arranged for them to live in the front room, and the two drove the carriage in at dawn.

Lu Yumin laughed at Juan'er: "Isn't it because I didn't sleep last night?"

One sentence made Juan'er's face turn red, it was true that the two of them had been tossing and tossing for half a night, and they woke up within two hours of sleep!She couldn't keep her eyes open in the carriage!

Ever since the Qin couple knew that the son-in-law was going to give birth to a son to inherit the incense of the Qin family, the mother-in-law became more and more delighted to see the son-in-law. Knowing that the young couple would move in this morning, they got up before dawn and got ready for breakfast!

Early in the morning, several adults got up and sat at the table. Li Sanlin said: "The business in this store will open today. After a while, Wulin and Uncle Qin will send things to the store, especially the shoe glue. , when the time comes, put it in a conspicuous place, and then paste the piece of paper that Wu Lin wrote yesterday."

After the two agreed, Li Sanlin said again: "Daughter-in-law, come later with your sister-in-law. It's too early and there are not many people. It's not the first day our store has opened, so you can go back and squint for a while. "

The business of spiked soles is not as good as Lu Yumin expected. After all, this is ancient times, and it is not so fast to accept new things.It was Liu Siqiang who did a good job in this advertisement. He asked the brothers in the yamen to order a pair, ten big bucks a pair!Promote it on the street!

This place is a rural town, and the climate is mainly warm, and the straw sandals are worn for a long time, so the effect is not very good!In the first three days, only about [-] pairs of shoe soles were nailed, which made Li Sanlin very depressed.

The two sat on the bed and counted a lot of money. Seeing Li Sanlin's discouraged face, Lu Yumin asked him with a smile: "Do you think you won't be able to earn much money?"

Li Sanlin sighed and said: "My daughter-in-law is exhausted, and others don't know how good this thing is!"

Lu Yumin comforted him and said: "You also know that this thing is good, but others don't know it now, and they will know it slowly! But you know my goal is not here!"

Li Sanlin's eyes lit up: "Daughter-in-law, do you think Mr. Tang wears our shoes, does it have any effect? ​​Do you think people in this city will like our shoes?"

Lu Yumin narrowed her eyes: "I don't know the effect now, but I think it's better than just wearing it for people in our small town. This county is full of rich people, and the provincial capital is full of high-ranking officials. It's spring again. There is a lot of rain, and sometimes you have to step on the ground even when riding a bridge, do you think they can wear straw sandals?"

Li Sanlin looked adoring: "Daughter-in-law, how did your brain grow? How can you think of so many things?"

"Plop" the money jar fell on the bed, and Lu Yumin was pressed on the bed by a tall figure and shouted: "Can't you slow down? Put the things away and we'll talk!"

The person under him had curved eyebrows, was tender and charming, and looked at him tenderly, Li Sanlin suddenly felt so sweet, and felt itchy in his heart!
Early the next morning, Lu Yumin was still awake, when Mei Li came to call her: "Third Aunt, Third Uncle asked if you woke up?"

Lu Yumin hurriedly asked: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Mei Li replied to her immediately: "Grandpa Qin came back just now and said that the clan masters in the village will come to our house in a while!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yumin immediately asked, "What are you doing at our house? Did something happen?"

Mei Li shook her head and said, "I don't know! Grandpa Qin didn't say anything, but Uncle Qin asked Grandma Qin to prepare refreshments. If you haven't woken up yet, let me call you!"

"Oh, I see! I'll get up right away, and tell Grandma Qin to make the good tea she picked last year and serve guests. Oh, Mei Li, and Grandma Qin will bring out some fried fruits at the end of the year, and winter tea The hotel is also ready, and I'll be out right away!" Lu Yumin confessed while getting dressed.

Mei Li responded quickly: "Third Aunt, I understand! I'll go right away."

As soon as the tea and snacks were served, Aunt Wu's hearty laughter came from the door: "Daughter-in-law Sanlin, Aunt Fifth, I came here uninvited!"

Lu Yumin stepped forward quickly: "Aunt Wu, don't say that, you are an honored guest to come to your niece and daughter-in-law! Come on, come on, just now Uncle Qin sent a message saying that the elders of the clan came to my house, I was so excited and waited for it !"

Jinmei smiled and said, "Fifth Aunt, I told you that you can't beat your younger siblings, right? If she hadn't said it, if she said it, we couldn't compare to her together!"

Lu Yumin deliberately said sadly: "Sister-in-law Quan Lin, do you think I talk too much, mother?"

Jinmei pretended to hit her: "You will deliberately misinterpret my words, watch me hit you!"

Mei Hua hugged her big fat son and shivered with a smile: "Sister-in-law San, sister-in-law Quan Lin has been talking about you just now!"

Lu Yumin pretended to be gossip and asked, "Meihua, tell me quietly, what did Mrs. Quan Lin say about me?"

Fifth Aunt Li laughed loudly and said: "We are talking, is this little beauty from Sanlin's family a fairy who came down from the sky? Otherwise, why is Brother Mingcai's life getting better and better than ours? Before you married in, weren't our families all similar?"

Lu Yumin said embarrassingly: "Fifth Aunt, you don't want to boast so much! If the fairy in the sky is just like me, there is no man in the world who is willing to become a fairy!"

"Hahaha..." Jin Mei laughed loudly at Lu Yumin's words: "Sister and sister, I don't know if the heavenly fairies are good-looking, but you are good-looking, and you are the envy of all the girls and boys in our village!"

After five or six female guests sat down, Li Sanlin led the patriarch Taigong and several elders into the door. He called, "Daughter-in-law, the Taigong and the others are here. Is the tea ready?"

Lu Yumin hurried forward to respond: "Hello grandpa! Hello uncles! My nephew and granddaughter-in-law have already prepared hot tea when they heard that you are here! Come, please go to the front hall!"

The patriarch sat right above him, raised his wine glass and said, "Thank you Sanlin nephew for the good wine! Grandpa, I brought you uncles and uncles to you today, just for your method of planting rice last year. of!"

Li Sanlin hurriedly said: "Grandpa, you can't be so polite! My nephew is from the Li family village, if you can really do something for the people of the Li family village, it's not worth your coming!"

Taigong said solemnly: "Sanlin, this food is the foundation of life! Don't say that your family harvested tens of catties more per mu last year, even if you harvested more than ten catties per mu, it is not easy! The village Each family does not have much land, and there are many people renting out the sacrifice land of the clan, but which one is not a big family? If there is no food, people will starve to death."

Li Sanlin said sincerely: "Grandfather, last year my family's several acres of land did have a good harvest. I have already sent the method to the county grandfather. This year, the whole county will use this method to grow rice. However, we have already planted rice. It's been a year, and I have gained some experience, when the time comes, our brothers will definitely help everyone in time!"

"Good nephew! You brothers have such a heart. On behalf of our whole family, I would like to thank you!" Li Mingsen said sincerely.

"That's right! Sanlin, what you Mingsenbo said is right, no matter how much you can increase production, your brothers have this kind of heart, and they are the great benefactors of the village!" Li Mingxin, the uncle of another clan, also said.

After the elders finished speaking, Li Sanlin raised his wine glass and said, "I would like to respect the elders and wish you a good harvest in the new year! Please have some snacks first, and have a good drink later!"

The grandfather immediately said politely: "No, no, no! Sanliner, we are already troublesome for you today, so we won't eat any food. When everyone has a good harvest, we invite you to come home for a drink!"

Lu Yumin immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Grandpa, the grandnephew's family doesn't have any good food and drinks. They just saved some pork offal from years ago. Last year, they made some new flavors. Please stay here to help your grandnephew try the taste!"

At the dinner table, Aunt Li saw Qingcao back and forth helping to serve dishes, she couldn't help asking: "Sanlin's, did you really buy this grass?"

Lu Yumin nodded with a smile and said: "Yes. Fifth Aunt, I didn't want to buy any girls at first. I am also a poor person, and I still buy girls like rich people! But there are really too many things in this family, no Inviting one or two people is really too busy!"

Jin Mei sighed and said: "Sister and sister, you are really a soft-tempered person! Such a little girl spent eight taels of silver, which is not something ordinary people can afford."

Lu Yumin said embarrassingly: "Didn't I entrust this to my sister-in-law? If she hadn't given me the house, the land, and a few servants, how could I have so much money to buy a girl? I even paid for my own meals. It's a problem!"

Aunt Li also sighed and said: "Yes! From the Sanlin family, I told you that you are a lucky person. This green grass has been with you for two months, and you can see that this little girl is already full of water!"

Meihua hurriedly fed her son in her arms and did not forget to say something: "Sister-in-law, the other day you brought Qingcao back to the village, and seeing this little girl dressed so neatly, how many times did you look at her! Several people asked, I wonder if you still want to buy a girl!"

Lu Yumin said in embarrassment: "I'm not a rich man, so I don't need to buy a girl. I just want to find a helper! Besides, the people in the village are not really so good as to sell girls. If it's not a last resort, who I am really willing to sell my own son as a slave!"

After hearing this, Jinmei said sincerely: "Yes! My brother and sister are right! Children are the flesh that fell from the mother's body. They will not be willing to sell people into slavery unless it is absolutely necessary. They are just talking. "

After everyone left, Lu Yumin thumped his waist and said, "Isn't the people in this clan too grand today? The elders of the Li family have all been dispatched. It's really scary!"

Li Sanlin ordered Qingcao to boil water for her to take a bath and said with a smile: "What's there to be afraid of? We didn't violate any ethnic rules. The grandpa and the others came here, which shows that they really value this year's rice planting. We just need to be sincere. If you guide everyone to plant the fields well, there will be no more burdens!"

Lu Yumin nodded and said, "Well, that's true. It's just that such a grand patriarch comes to visit, and I haven't gotten used to it yet!"

Li Sanlin rubbed her shoulders lovingly and said, "Are you tired today? I told Aunt Qin to cook the dishes, so you have to do it yourself! Look, you're exhausted. Wife, go lie down on the bed, and I'll help you with your waist." Knead for a while, wait for the hot water to boil, take a bath and rest for a while."

Lying on the side of the bed, Lu Yumin yelled: "Oh, take it easy! Let you rub it down, your bones will be broken in a while!"

Li Sanlin looked at this squeamish little daughter-in-law and said dumbfoundedly: "I haven't used any strength yet!"

Lu Yumin asked again as if thinking of something: "My lord, if this method of rice spreads, won't you have to go out for a long time?"

Li Sanlin pinched his waist gently and asked with a smile, "What? You don't want me to go out?"

Lu Yumin deliberately said angrily: "Who is not willing to part with it! You dare to go out!"

Li Sanlin couldn't help laughing at this childish daughter-in-law: "I was wrong, I was wrong! It's because I don't want my wife, I don't want to go out! When your elder brother comes to call someone, I will tell him, I don't want my wife to be with you. He has gone, let him find another Gao Ming!"

Knowing that Li Sanlin was molesting Lu Yumin, she raised her foot and lightly kicked him in the chest: "You scoundrel!"

The early rice had to be planted as soon as Jingzhe was over, and Tang Yunqing personally brought people to Li's house before his family started to plant them. After seeing Li Sanlin's demonstration, he asked him to go to the county town with him to help Nongsi go down to the villages and towns Guidance, it's been half a month since I left.

After Li Sanlin left, Uncle Qin became even more busy by himself. Although he was very tired, he did not complain about the selection, drying and soaking of seeds in his thirteen acres of paddy fields, but he did not complain, which made Lu Yumin feel very tired. Embarrassed.

Seeing that the seeds are in the field, we have to start plowing the field. There is still rapeseed in the three acres of land in Lijia Village.

Lu Yumin carefully recalled the agricultural tools in her previous life, and after much deliberation, she has never seen a flat-field rake like that in her hometown in this world. Those things can be made of wood or iron, and people stand on them and pull them with oxen. Run, the horizon is fast and good!
After drawing the picture, Lu Yumin took it to the front hall and called Uncle Qin, spread it flat on the table and pointed to the picture for him to see: "Uncle Qin, look at this thing."

Uncle Qin looked down carefully and asked, "Master, what's the use of this thing?"

Lu Yumin thought for a while and pointed to the picture before saying carefully: "Uncle Qin, I see that when the ground was leveled at home, after the cattle were turned over and the rakes were raked, they had to be fined by hand, which was a lot of work. I was thinking, if I use some method instead, will it be faster? Just thought of such a thing."

Uncle Qin asked puzzledly, "How can I use it?"

Lu Yumin pointed to the two ends of the picture and said: "If people stand on the two sides and press the roller, and let the cow run in front, will it be useful?"

Uncle Qin's eyes lit up, an expert is an expert!He clapped his hands excitedly: "Master, why do you want to come here? If you use your method, the three acres of land can be rebuilt in two days!"

Lu Yumin deliberately asked unsteadily: "Uncle Qin, do you think this is okay?"

Uncle Qin said excitedly: "Boss, I can't completely say it will work now. But judging from your picture and what you said, it must work! This old slave will find someone to try it out, and it happens to be Experiment in the seed field!"

Looking at the back of Uncle Qin leaving the house quickly, Lu Yumin felt it was funny that at Uncle Qin's age, he would still have the impulsive appearance of a young man!

Of course, she knows if she can do it or not!How can there be no reason for the advanced tools after a thousand years?It's just that she didn't expect that this revolution of new farm tools, because she was a little impatient, even though she earned some money, it also caused some troubles!
Later, she had to say to herself before doing anything—impulsion is the devil!
