Chapter 352 Do You Love Me?

358
"You will be my little daughter-in-law in the future, so do you like to see me?"

Osmanthus fragrans heard the two talking about love and coughed dryly twice. Cardamom quickly winked at Qi Tengmiao, took Osmanthus fragrans's arm and said, "Mom, you go cook, I'll go to the field to see the harvest."

"That's just right. Call your father to come back for dinner. I've been working in the fields all day." In order to quickly collect all the herbs that should be harvested before it rains, I haven't worked day or night these days.

Qi Tengmiao also volunteered to help in the field, and as soon as he went out, he naturally held Dou Kou's weak and boneless little hands, with a contented smile on his face.

In June, the daytime was scorchingly hot, and when the sun was about to set, the wind in the mountains blew, and I shivered suddenly.

Qi Tengmiao took off his clothes and draped them on Dou Kou's shoulders, wrapping his hands around Dou Kou's shoulders, 'forgot' to take them off.

Cardamom doesn't come back often, but Qi Tengmiao always comes back every few days, and when he comes back, he goes to the fields to help with work, so everyone in the field knows this kid, and at first they thought that Zhang Anping had found a son-in-law for his eldest son. It was only later that I found out that this is a foolish boy who is past the age of marriage and is still waiting for the girl Cardamom.

These people have hardly seen these two people come to the field together. Someone saw it, whistled at Qi Tengmiao, grinned happily, "You don't feel sorry for the cardamom, bring it to the field. Aren't you afraid that your father-in-law will take care of you?"

For the jokes made by the big guys, Qi Tengmiao just laughed it off without defending, and sometimes even continued what these people said.

"Don't be afraid, she is the supervisor, watching me work."

Cardamom tilted her head and saw Qi Tengmiao's hand secretly placed on her shoulder slipping down silently, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said she was not afraid.

Qi Tengmiao tore his hand off Cardamom's shoulder, and shouted to Anping on the other side of the field, Uncle.

Anping is still young and has good ears. As soon as the two children entered the field, he heard the gang of workers making jokes about them, so he pretended not to hear them. Now Qi Tengmiao called him, and Anping He stopped what he was doing and asked, "Why did you come back together today?"

The Baiweitang was busy all day long, and couldn't be separated from people. Anping wiped his sweat with a sweat towel around his neck, and walked towards the field.

Cardamom squatted down and poured a bowl of water from the teapot on the ridge of the field, "Come back and see how much food is left in the granary, and I plan to send some to the temple. There is porridge at the foot of the mountain every morning. Do you think so?" ?”

Anping raised the tea bowl and took a big mouthful of herbal tea, wiped his mouth, and grinned, "Father listens to you, you can do whatever you want."

When Qi Tengmiao heard this, his eyes lit up. It seemed that Doukou had to nod himself for their marriage. As long as she nodded, he would be able to hug the beauty back.

Anping looked up at the sky, and the sun was about to set. He turned around and told the workers to carry on for a while, "It's cool, let's do some work while it's cool, and go home for dinner when it gets dark."

At the end of June, this is the time when rice seedlings are transplanted. Cardamom stands on the slender ridge and looks at the rice fields on both sides. These are all lands that she bought at one time. According to modern terms, the right to use these fields is permanent, although It cost a lot of money to buy it, but in the long run, it is a huge fortune. Now their family is a wealthy family with a hundred acres of fertile land.

On the mountain where Qi Tengmiao and Uncle Qi lived in seclusion before, although the output of medicinal materials is small, there are many kinds of rare medicinal materials. She plans to expand the scale of herbal medicine planting on the mountain, and allocate part of the land at the foot of the mountain to grow food.

The power of the Bai family in Shengjing has been fading, and the medicinal materials they eat are getting less and less. Cardamom refuses to cooperate with others. Others say that Cardamom is a fool. Many of them took the land back after the lease with Zhang Anping's family expired. She grows herbal medicines and sells them herself. Some people say that Zhang Doukou is still stupid, so stubborn that she deliberately has trouble with money.

Cardamom went to the field to talk, and then went to the herbal garden at the foot of the mountain with Qi Tengmiao to check the situation. At the beginning, there was [-] mu of land rented here, and now she doesn't even have half of it for her use, and the rest are taken back by each family. Seeing that the Cardamom family planted whatever herbs they planted, they also made a small amount of money by cooperating with people who came to the fields to collect herbs.

Chang Yanghong also got married two years ago. He took his daughter-in-law to load herbs in the field, and when he saw cardamom coming, he said hello.

"It was shipped out before dark, and my two younger brothers have also prepared the next season's medicinal materials, and we can start planting tomorrow."

Chang Yang Hong tanned his face, and chatted with Dou Kou with a smile on the few acres of medicine garden left. These lands belonged to the Chang family. He remembered the kindness of Dou Kou back then, and no matter who persuaded him, he would not take the land back. , Dedicated to working for Cardamom's family.

The land next door belongs to the rich man’s family. The rich man’s young daughter-in-law, Yan Zhi, came here every three days to show off the smell, and persuaded Chang Yang Hong to take the land back and plant it for herbal collectors. Compared with doing it for Zhang Doukou, I can earn ten taels of silver a year more.

Twelve taels of silver is a lot in the village, and a big family can’t spend it for a year, not to mention that Chang Yang Hong’s parents are all medicine jars, and they take medicine all the year round. The three brothers are all married, and they are three small families. , which family does not eat some silver.

Chang Yang Hong is even more stubborn, he doesn't listen to anyone who says anything, he doesn't make noise, he just keeps his head down and works, only when the boy Qi Tengmiao comes over, the two of them squat on the field and chat a few words, no one else knows What were they talking about? Anyway, the two chatted very lively.

"Brother Chang, thanks to you helping our family take care of the medicine garden here these past few years," Cardamom saw Chang Yang Hong's loyalty to her family, so the few acres of medicine garden managed by Chang Yang Hong earned a lot of money. Almost all the money received was given to the Chang family. The picture shows the three brothers helping father take care of the herbs on the mountain.

After all, she is a businessman, so she can make less money, but she can’t lose money. She also made it clear to Chang Yang Hong that if she felt it was inappropriate, she could return the land deed to their family and terminate the cooperative relationship, but Brother Chang Yang Hong If you don't do it, you are willing to follow Cardamom, saying it is safe.

The three brothers of the Chang family looked like peasants, but in fact they all had a steelyard in their hearts, and Douamou's kindness to his family was the heaviest weight. Earning more than ten taels of silver a year could not shake their loyalty.

"You have worked hard, let's go to the mountain to have a look," Dou Kou smiled, sweetly called her sister-in-law, and bid farewell to the Chang family couple. She and Qi Tengmiao walked up the widened mountain road.

It was getting dark too soon, Chang Yang Hong's wife urged him to work quickly, "Go home after work, I have something to discuss with you."

"Are you finished? If I say no, I won't, don't ink."
