Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 190

Qin Ye was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth: "How many times? That's where the old man lives." Everyone laughed and said, "We also want to be the old man."

Qin Dafu smiled and calculated: "Let's build a few rooms to live in first, then save money, and gradually build others. As long as there is space, it will be convenient to expand."

Xiuyao was gearing up, "We want to make more money, live in a big house, eat meat every day, and earn money without working."

Xiuxian teased her, "You don't knit gloves, you also have money, you are just a little landowner."

Xiuyao giggled, "Second Sister, you can earn a share of the money if you do it yourself, and let others do it for us, so you can earn more money."

This day Xiuyao came to the scene to help, and now there is a lot of work at home, they don't have to mow the grass, but to feed the pigs, they have to mow grass to feed the sheep and rabbits, as well as chickens, ducks and ducks.

The three mu of cotton locust tree and the five mu of alfalfa played a big role. They chopped off the branches and leaves of cotton locust tree and fed them to sheep and donkeys. Eat some cottonseed cakes, and the sheep just eat some sweet potato flour mixed with bran.Of course, they also like to eat alfalfa, and even rush to the field to eat it casually.Alfalfa can also be used to feed pigs, but it cannot be used as a staple food. Harvesting or chopping alfalfa or directly drying and grinding the alfalfa can increase the litter weight of pigs by mixing it with dried sweet potato powder.

In addition, for example, the mosaic leaves of catalpa can also be fed to pigs. They can be picked at both the young leaf stage and the full bloom stage. If they are mixed with sweet potato powder and fed to pigs, the pigs can grow fatter.

They harvest a certain amount of alfalfa every day, and then once every two days, Xiuyao and Qin Ye drive the donkey cart to grandpa's house to deliver, after all, there are big pigs raised there.With these alfalfa grasses, the family can save a lot of homemade feed.

After sending off the alfalfa, Qin Ye helped to feed the pigs, and Xiuyao went to have a look. Now the shelves in the pig shed are full of huge hanging square melons, and there are two kinds of gourds with big belly and double belly, which are very gratifying to see .

Xiao Zheng was running over to look for her, "Sister, my grandpa is looking for you."

Ever since he went to support his daughter's house, Lao Liutou and Li Shi have become more friendly people. After that time, Liu Fei even sent a cart full of bran and some duck eggs to Lao Qintou, and Zhang Shi After being happy for several days, he said that his in-laws were sensible and good people.

Xiuyao hurried over, old Liutou was turning vines in a sweet potato field, saw Xiuyao coming, said: "Yaoyao, go home and tell your mother to let your sister come and stay for two days."

As soon as Xiuyao heard it, she knew that she was going on a blind date. Before that, her grandmother and aunt helped talk about Lao Bai's family, but for some reason, Lao Bai's family suddenly retreated.Not only did people not come to the door to propose marriage, they didn't even mention it, and they even had a little relationship with the grandfather's family, so they didn't come to push the mill. It was the reason that the grandfather came to the door to buy wheat flour and wheat to inquire about it.

He didn't ask, and then Lao Bai's family also knew why he was going, so they took the initiative to talk about the marriage of the youngest son, saying that they wanted to settle for which one, but they were not sure about Xiuqin.Although Old Liutou was angry, there was nothing he could do. After all, they decided on Xiuqin without saying anything at the beginning, but they just took advantage of the opportunity to see each other. Although everyone meant to agree at the time, if they didn't make a decision, they could go back on their word.It's just that they shouldn't regret it so quietly, but instead let their family wait like this.

It's okay for Liu Shi to know about it, but she just said something and found another one for Xiuqin.But it's not so easy to find a family like them, after all, they are vying for Xiuqin, and their Qin family doesn't like it, so they can't let Xiuqin suffer.But with a good family background, there are many choices for people, and they will want to find better people.There are those families who are too good and want Xiuqin to be the sequel and junior, but Liu always refuses with a cold face, and don't even think about it, so this half year has been delayed.Many matchmakers came to the door back and forth, and one of them didn't match.

Xiuyao said: "Okay, I'll leave in a while, I'll tell my mother at home."

Now the Liu family mill is very busy, even with the help of Liu Wu and his wife, it is almost too busy, so the old Liu head turns the sweet potato vines by himself.Xiuyao helped him turn over for a while, and Old Liu said, "Go home quickly, don't get dark."

Xiuyao said: "Grandpa, drive the donkey cart, hurry up." Now it can be regarded as a basic means of transportation, which is much faster than before with two legs, mainly to save energy.

Old Liutou felt sorry for her. It was a scorching hot day and the scorching sun. She was a little girl so she wouldn't get sunburned. He said, "Come on, let's go over there to drink water and talk, I'm a little tired."

All kinds of trees in the field have luxuriant branches and leaves. The big tree crowns are all on the west and north side, and the ginkgo and jujube trees with small crowns and small leaves are in the middle. They rest under a jujube tree, although the jujube trees on the tree are not There are many, but they are also slim and graceful. With the appearance of a tree, there will be a bumper harvest in the coming year.

Old Liutou's house is in good condition now, and there are a few melons and watermelons planted in the field. He went to wash two melons and handed them to Xiuyao for her to eat.

Now Xiuyao's family is not lacking, Liu's buys melons and fruits for the children every now and then, and also plants a few in his own cotton field. Although he is not very rich, his small life is quite nourishing.

Moreover, the saplings given by my uncle’s family include peach trees, apricot trees, pear trees, persimmons, etc. These are the same one or two, mainly jujube trees, persimmons, etc. Although most of them have not yet produced fruit, jujube There are trees.Even if there are few fruit on a tree, if there are many trees, there will be many dates.

After Xiuyao finished eating, she was about to turn over the sweet potato vines, but Old Liutou stopped her: "Yaoyao, take a rest, it's really hot, turn around and turn again when it's not hot."

Xiuyao said: "Grandpa, there are all trees here, it's not hot, my calves are fast, and I don't get tired when I bend over, it will be a big piece in a while." She found another stick and handed it to Lao Liu "Grandpa, if you turn over, use a pole to pick it up, so you don't have to tire your waist." Then she went to turn over the sweet potato vines.

After a while, Xiuyao and Lao Liu turned their heads a lot. Qin Ye saw that the sun was going to the west and kept telling Xiuyao to go back.Now that the food at home is not bad, Lao Liutou naturally doesn't have to keep them for dinner, let them slow down and be careful on the road.

Back home, Xiuyao told her mother what her grandfather had said.Mrs. Liu hummed, and said to Xiuqin: "Let your elder brother take you there in two days. Go to stay at grandma's house for a few days, and be with your grandma. There are no girls at home. Your grandma misses you."

Xiuqin also knew what was going on, and nodded slowly, but there was nothing to be happy about. For some reason, Bai Xun'an's face was always dangling in front of her eyes.When he secretly looked at her that day, the message he sent was clearly a surprise, a look of joy and admiration, but why did he change his mind?She sighed softly, and went to work.

Before dinner, Xiuli ran over, "Mother, my mother asked my elder sister to come over."

Mrs. Liu said vigilantly: "Lili, what's the matter with your mother?" Mrs. Zhang has been polite to Mrs. Liu recently, but she didn't feel sorry for her, and she never forcibly intervened in the family affairs of the eldest family. Qin Dafu proudly followed her Mrs. Liu boasted that Mother no longer wanted to worry about it.But Mrs. Liu is not at ease. She feels that as long as the in-laws don't separate from the second and third bedrooms, the third aunt and second aunt will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble and instigate Zhang's. She can't be careless, especially at this time.

Xiuli said: "I heard that they want my eldest sister to make a padded jacket."

Although Liu Shi felt something was wrong, she let Xiuqin go, so Xiuqin tidied up her needlework basket and carried it over.The scissors at Mammy's house are not easy to use, but my own is easy to use.Xiuqin went to her nanny's house, and sure enough there was a big coat on the Zhang's kang, which belonged to Old Qin.

Xiuqin said: "Nurse."

Mrs. Zhang hummed, "Xiuqin, come and tear apart the coat for your grandfather."

Xiuqin quickly got on the kang and took out the stitches. Mrs. Zhang wentssip with her, saying that she was the best needleworker.Although Mammy treated her mother too much, Xiuqin still remembered that Mammy treated her well when she was a child, so as long as there was no conflict of interest, Xiuqin listened to Zhang's words and respected her very much.

Mrs. Zhang asked: "Xiuqin, your mother and your grandmother, how did you tell you about your kiss?"

Seeing her say this, she thought of changing marriages, and Xiuqin was a little unwilling to listen to it again. After a few perfunctory words, Zhang raised her eyebrows, "Xiuqin, do you think Mammy treats you well? Don't think that I am It's not for me to meddle in your business again."

Xiuqin squeezed out a smile: "Okay, Mammy, it's getting late and I have to cook, I'll take it home and sew it up and send it here tomorrow."

Mrs. Zhang stopped her: "Don't worry, your grandpa's coat is old, and the cotton is not good. It has become a cotton cover, which is heavy and not warm. You ask your mother to bring some good cotton to Xu Xu."

There is no need for Liu Shi to nod for this kind of trivial matter, Xiuqin can also make the decision, she agrees, she will clean up the sewing basket.

Suddenly, Mrs. Zhang changed the subject, looked at Xiuqin and lowered her voice: "Xiuqin, you have always been an obedient and good girl. All these years, my mother thinks you are good. I know you are the most obedient and kind, and you are considerate of my brother. .” Then he sighed.

Xiuqin felt that there was something in Mammy's words, so she didn't want to talk more, and wanted to leave, but Mrs. Zhang stopped her, "Xiuqin, your brother can't talk about his wife anymore, and you don't have any plans for him?"

Xiuqin pursed her lips, her brother's marriage was in the care of her parents, so it was not her sister's worry.

Mrs. Zhang stared at her, not as sharp as before, but really anxious for her grandson, "Your brother's hand is broken, do you know? It's a lie to say it's good, just to look good, you My brother's hand is actually useless. What Sun Langzhong said is that a child's strength cannot do heavy work. If you say that a man can't do heavy work, how can he support his family? Who will marry him?"

Xiuqin didn't believe it, "My elder brother said he was fine, so Xiuyao went to see it with him."
