Abandoned Daughter's Beautiful Pastoral

Chapter 407 Lin Zhaoyuan's No. 1 Scholar ([-])
Tian Qi heard the words, rolled his eyes, and took his clothes resignedly.

When Zhang Xiaocao learned that her grandma had promised her to go south, she began to explain about the cotton fields, farms, and stewed meat workshops. The cotton in the cotton field was picked once, and after the five hundred acres of cotton were dried, there were more than 6 catties. All of them are stored in the warehouse and can only be collected by the government. However, the price of cotton this year is indeed much lower. The top-grade cotton is only [-] yuan. Fortunately, it is much better than growing grain. Besides, a few acres of potatoes are also growing well. , Next year, I will switch to planting potatoes. Rare things are more expensive. Potatoes should be able to sell for a good price!

What surprised her the most was the farm and the stewed meat workshop. All the animals in the farm were supplied to the workshop to produce stewed meat and jerky. The jerky has been favored by many people since it was born. People who are doing it use it as dry food, and it is easy to store. Now all kinds of dried meat can be sold more than 1000 catties a month, earning more than 100 taels of silver.

The stewed meat workshop has been in operation for nearly a year. Excluding the trivial expenses such as breeding costs, labor costs, and materials and materials, the net income is about 5000 taels. Compared with cotton, this income is a little less, but cotton will be popularized. In the future, more and more plants will be planted, and the price will be lower year by year, but once the braised meat and jerky market is opened, the income generated will be considerable.

Although there are many counterfeit stewed meats on the market, the taste is still very different from that of Zhangjia stewed meats. Moreover, Lejia is a stewed meat seller and has a lot of resources in Zhongzhou Prefecture. Those small-scale stewed meat workshops can be compared, and she is not worried that Zhang's stewed meat will be sold out.

After sorting out the accounts for the past six months, Zhang Xiaocao stretched her waist, thinking that she would be leaving the day after tomorrow, and would take at least three months to come back. She planned to spend more time with grandma during the two free days. Mu Hua had been gone for a few months, and grandma She just got used to it, and now she has to go on a long trip, and grandma's mood is very low, she can see it.

Seeing her coming, Grandma Zhang picked up the newly made shoes and handed them to her: "Try to see if it fits?"

Zhang Xiaocao took it with a smile, sat on the chair and took off her shoes, and said: "The shoes made by grandma are the most comfortable, they must fit!"

Grandma Zhang would be very happy after hearing this, but now she is not happy. Brother Mingming Yuan said that her granddaughter could not leave, but she delayed for a few days, and the granddaughter still has to leave the day after tomorrow. Spectrum!
Zhang Xiaocao saw that grandma was not happy, and she was very moved. Although she was dissatisfied that she was leaving, she still prepared this and that, not to mention the shoes, and also prepared a few thin cotton clothes overnight. It's the same, not a lot, and it's all done.

"Oh, grandma knows me best. These shoes are so comfortable!"

Grandma Zhang looked at her flattering appearance and couldn't help but want to laugh, but when she thought of her disobedience, she became angry, kept a straight face on purpose, and refused to talk to her, she had better be a serious old woman in the future, lest this one Neither of them took her words to heart!

Seeing that grandma didn't like her, Zhang Xiaocao was a little embarrassed, and was about to say something, when a gray pigeon flew over and landed at her feet.

This pigeon is exactly what Jun Liyou used to communicate with her, but they only communicate once a month, usually the pigeons arrive in the middle of the month, and it's only the beginning of the month now, why did it arrive, what happened? ?

Grandma Zhang also knew about this pigeon, and she was a little worried when she saw it flying at this time, so she couldn't help asking, "Look at what's written!"

Zhang Xiaocao came back to her senses, caught the pigeon, took out the letter, and opened it carefully, but there was only one sentence on it!

She looked it over, but didn't see anything, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Grandma Zhang with a smile: "Jun Liyou is coming over, it's time to leave now!"

Grandma Zhang's eyes lit up, but she thought of something else: "So, you can't leave?"

Zhang Xiaocao was taken aback for a moment, and her face instantly collapsed...

It’s another bumper harvest season, and Zhangjia Village is immersed in the joy of a bumper harvest. This year, the weather is good, and what you plant will grow. Even if you plant in rotation, the area for planting cotton is only half of that of previous years, because this year’s cotton price is higher than last year. , the harvested cotton is exchanged for silver, but it is no less than last year. In addition, the daily food is also grown by myself, so I don't need to spend a lot of money to buy it, and I can save a lot all year round!
Zhangjia Village has grown cotton for three consecutive years, and those with less land can earn more than 100 taels of silver a year. After three years, not to mention comparing with the rich households in the town, there is no village within a hundred miles that lives better than Zhang’s. Jiacun has become more prosperous. Didn't you see that in the past two years, every household has built a house with black bricks and black tiles?
"Girl, you're still standing and laughing, hurry up and get some for me, these are all given to you by the folks!"

When Ling Yun came back, he happened to meet Zhang Xiaocao who came back from the workshop, and said quickly, he saw that his hands were full of things, and some were hanging on his belt and arms. The messy appearance made him look a little funny!
"I'm a big living person standing here, how can you ask the girl to help you carry things, really!"

Before Zhang Xiaocao could speak, Lu Wu, who was following her, stared at him and said dissatisfiedly, but she still stepped forward and helped him share some of the burden.

Ling Yun giggled: "How can I be willing to make you work hard!"

"Ah bah, don't dare to talk nonsense, be careful with your skin!"

When Lvwu heard this, she was immediately ashamed and annoyed, and kicked over. This guy is getting more and more out of shape, and he dares to say such annoying words in front of the girl!

Ling Yun yelled and dodged, turned around and stood behind Zhang Xiaocao, and laughed at Lu Wu who was chasing him: "When the young master comes back, we should take care of our affairs, you are my wife, why don't you say that? "

Seeing the girl winking at her, Lu Wu was so ashamed that she couldn't hide her face, and couldn't catch up with Ling Yun, an outspoken guy, so she stomped her feet angrily, and turned around and left!

Looking at the dumbfounded Ling Yun, Zhang Xiaocao smiled and shook her head: "You know that she is thin-skinned, but you still tease her all day long, carefully annoy her, if you don't marry you, then I won't help you!"

Ling Yun scratched his head and chuckled: "This marriage has already been decided, it's not up to her to decide whether it will happen or not!"

Zhang Xiaocao felt very happy when she saw his stupid and dumbfounded appearance. When she first saw him, she always looked cold. Compared with now, she looks like two people!

What she didn't expect was that he and Luwu actually met each other. They made an appointment at the beginning of the year and planned to get married at the end of the year. Have a happy event for them both.

She freed Luwu from slavery so that she would no longer have to work as an errand, but Luwu disagreed with life and death, and was still busy in the mansion every day, so she had no choice but to treat her as hired by herself. Calculate wages.

"By the way, girl, this is the news that Xiaoyi just brought back. Quickly open it and see, is it true that your son is in high school?"
