Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 304

Therefore, she decided not to publicly promote her farm, so as not to provoke schemes from people with serious intentions. Now some people outside are imitating and learning, and some even come to steal the teacher.Xiuyao felt that it was up to the outside observers to see what they saw and how to learn it. Anyway, she just didn't tell them the tricks, so she didn't need to take responsibility for any problems.

After all, this is not something that should exist in this era, and she does not need to spread it widely. After a hundred years, this thing will disappear, and it will not have much impact on the history of this era.

However, she found that the flames from her biogas pit were naturally stronger than those charcoals, and she didn't want to waste them except for heating, so she could fiddle with burning something out.

It is not circulated in the country, at least it can be brought back overseas to exchange for money.

Xiuyao also likes the imported spices and dyes very much, they are really good, so naturally she likes to spread them vigorously.

She asked Qi Feng, there are glass and glazed overseas, and now the court can also make glazed cups and glass cups, those honorable families have glass windows in their homes.

This point is more attractive to Xiuyao. After all, although the glass window looks inconspicuous, it is really useful, keeping warm, keeping out the wind, lighting, environmental protection... all kinds of things are good!
She has already sent a message to Qi Feng, asking him to see if he can invite a glass-burning master back, even if it is to take someone to steal the master, after learning it, she can open a kiln next to her farm, small Well, this will not make any noise.

Qi Feng has always offered better suggestions, never refuted or objected to her proposals, and always takes the completion of the goal as his own responsibility.

At the end of the year, Gu Ning sent a letter saying that he was doing well in the south of the Yangtze River, and he could just repair the river during the dry season.

And Qi Feng also came back from the boat, and brought back two very beautiful foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes, causing a sensation in the county town.

It's a pity that the translator died of an emergency while at sea, so they buried him at sea, and now there is no translator to follow.

And those two foreigners spoke a foreign language, Xiuyao didn't sound like English. She took Latin as an elective when she was in college, just to pretend, so she learned half of it. It's better to learn Wenzhou dialect from her roommate. .

She tried to say something in Latin, but she didn't expect one of them to show a look of surprise, just like seeing their relatives.

But Xiuyao felt that he seemed to have seen a sea monster, so she widened her blue eyes, raised her eyebrows, and had a mouth so long that a big cantaloupe could be stuffed in it.

And Qi Feng looked at her with a peaceful expression. For some reason, he suddenly remembered the moment when he saved her. He thought she was dead and was going to give up, but she suddenly opened her eyes.

Did something happen during this period?

Although he was curious, he was not afraid, and he didn't want to share it with anyone. He just wanted to be next to her. It was a very fun and happy thing to slowly look at her and study her.

Originally, if he went to sea, he might not be able to return for a year. In order to return at the end of the year, he did not go too far in person, but stayed at the transfer station he established, so that he could return as soon as possible.

With these two Westerners, Xiuyao didn't do anything else, leaving almost all business matters to her elder brother and others, and she just chatted with the two Westerners.

The communication was not so smooth, and it was even full of jokes and unpleasantness. Sometimes one of the Westerners became furious, grabbed his hair, and screamed, looking like he was about to jump into the wall and hang himself.

Xiuyao looked at it with a smile. It seems that no matter ancient or modern Westerners or Easterners, the way to commit suicide is still the same.

But after a period of time, the hard work paid off, and they could almost transition from talking with ducks to simple communication.

At least it won't make the two Westerners eat and drink to death in pain.

Xiuyao specially bought a clever servant to serve the two of them, and was responsible for their food and daily life. The two of them also quickly adapted to the life here.

Xiuyao knew that they were opportunists among Westerners and not stable, so she asked Qi Feng to send someone to watch them, so as not to cause any trouble.

Moreover, they had to go to the county government to file for the record, and gave them a temporary merchant identity document, which stated that they were resident in the Qin family.

As a result, the Qin family's reputation spread far and wide, and they even entertained Westerners!
This year's New Year is particularly interesting because of the addition of two Westerners. One of them named Qin Shubao and the other named Qin Baoshu.Uncle Qin Bao is cunning and likes to play tricks on people, so he specially named him so that everyone can call him uncle.But except for Qin Shubao who called him, others only called him Second Treasure, and Qin Shubao was the Great Treasure.

Two live treasures!

And the one who likes them the most is no different from Qin Yang.

Qin Yang is smart, active, and likes to accept new things. Following them to learn Western European languages, the progress is rapid. Xiuyao, who has learned foreign languages ​​for more than [-] years, is so jealous that she is crazy!

This kid, if he studies well, he may be able to enter the foreign affairs office directly by then.

A good brain is really better than anything else.

Xiuyao learned the chemical knowledge from the Huobao duo, and the duo learned from her the agricultural knowledge here, especially the ecological farm.

Everyone takes what they need.

When preparing the new year's goods, Mrs. Zhang was entrusted by her third uncle to find Mrs. Liu.

"Let's see, can you talk to someone so that Xiujuan can come back? Stay for a few days? Go back a year ago."

Mrs. Liu didn't want to care about this kind of thing, "Mother, when you get married, you naturally have to listen to what they say, how can you make your own decisions?"

They were all former daughter-in-laws, who didn't know who, and now the three aunts in the family were also let back by the mother-in-law because of the embarrassment of their mother's parents.

It's hard to say for Xiujuan, she is going to be a concubine, not really a continuation of the strings, so far Mrs. Zhang still refuses to face the reality, and says that Xiujuan is for the continuation of strings.

While talking, Xiuli also ran over, wiping her tears, "Ma'am, please ask my elder brother to pick up my sister and come back to stay for a few days."

Liu Shi looked at her wonderingly, "Lili, what's the matter?"

Xiuli's eyes were red, "Auntie, my elder sister suffered a lot in the Gao family. I heard that her mother-in-law beat her all day long."

Mrs. Liu frowned, "Lili, it's not that you don't know what happened back then, because of your sister, your uncle was almost eaten by your mother."

Xiuli nodded repeatedly and knelt down, "Ma'am, it's because my mother is ignorant, I..."

Liu quickly pulled her up, "You girl, what are you doing?"

She said: "We have fallen out with the Gao family, I'm afraid it's hard to talk."

Xiuli said: "Auntie, as long as we send someone there, they will, after all, give us face."

Now the Qin family is not what it used to be, and their Gao family also knows that Huangzhi County always comes to eat at home.

Mrs. Liu didn't want to go into that muddy water, but she couldn't bear to make Xiumei sad, she said: "Go and ask your elder sister Yaoyao, see if she can send someone to take your brother to pick up Xiumei and come back to stay for a few days .”

Xiuli sees that Yaoyao handles the important affairs of such relatives, so she knows that the Liu family doesn't want to take care of them. The eldest sister and Yuanyuan come back to live every now and then, and within a few days the aunt wants Yuanyuan to urge someone to pick them up.But when mother and elder sister got into too much trouble back then, she also knew that aunt would not want to deal with it when she was cold.

It's just that since she received a few beautiful letters, her heart has been cut like a knife. After all, she is her own sister, her mother has disappeared, and her father has gone out and refused to come back. She only has her sister and brother left. up.

I can't ignore it.

Xiuli had no choice but to go to Xiuyao, and seeing her learning how to make dim sum with the cook in the kitchen, she ran over and told about Xiumei with tears in her eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that those shopkeepers who went to Gaojiazhuang were acquainted with the Qin family, they would naturally not have sent letters to the Qin family at the risk of offending the Gao family. Xiuli felt even more ashamed when she knew this. It doesn't have to be as difficult as it is now.

After listening to Xiuyao, she said with a smile: "Why don't you just come back and stay for a few days? What's so difficult about it? There are all married girls who don't want to go back to their parents' home. Come back and stay for two days, go back before the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, do you think it's okay?"

Xiuli nodded again and again, "Sister, of course."

Xiuyao asked her to go to her elder brother to see how many people she could bring with her when she had time, and then bring a generous gift. She would go to Gao's house while delivering goods in Changqing County, give gifts first and then let Xiumei come back.

Xiuli was a little hesitant, "Sister, can they bring her back?"

"Why not let it go? Your sister didn't sell it to their family. If you don't let her come back, let's say she won't let her come back." Xiuyao kept working, and she didn't say what to do if she didn't let her come back.

Xiuli bit her lip, thinking that Xiumei was really too much back then, scolding Xiuyao all day long, but now Xiuyao doesn't want to take care of it, that's what Xiumei herself did.

But after all, I asked my elder brother to go there, and Xiuli thanked Xiumei again.

Xiuyao didn't say much, after all, Xiuli and Qin Chan were the children of the second room, they were sisters, mother and daughter, and the bones were broken. Although their first house raised Xiuli and Qin Chan, they would not talk to them. Said the second room is not good.

The apex won't say anything.

Although Qin Ye was busy, he didn't refuse. After listening to Xiuli's words, he comforted her and told her not to worry. He immediately packed up and set off for Gaojiazhuang.

Two days later, when Qin Ye and the others came back, they brought Xiumei back. She took off the big cloak that blocked the wind, and she was dressed decently inside. She was wearing new clothes for the Chinese New Year, with gold and silver hairpins on her head. It's not good, although the thick powder is applied, the dredging under the eyes can't be covered.

Xiuli couldn't wait a long time ago, when she saw them coming, she immediately went up to them and helped Xiumei get off the car.

As soon as Xiumei got out of the car, Xiuli took her hand and sobbed, calling her sister repeatedly.

Xiumei frowned unhappily, and scolded: "Why are you crying, what is there to cry about, am I fine?" Then she complained that the Qin family didn't drive a carriage to pick her up, and used a mule cart without a hood , the road was windy and dusty, and it made her face icy cold.

Xiuli wiped her tears, "Don't choose."

Xiumei said angrily: "Why don't you choose? Am I not the daughter of the Qin family? Isn't it the one who shamed me?"

Qin Ye and the others pretended not to hear, and they were not responsible for teaching the children of the second room, and they were hated by others for not speaking, which would offend others even more, so they simply did not speak.

Xiuli felt embarrassed, so she asked her to hurry up to greet her grandparents and grandparents.

Xiumei snorted angrily, "Where are our parents? What's going on? Why did I hear people say that my mother is not at home, and my father has gone out to run a boat? What's going on with the aunt's family? Let you and brother do it for them. The helper is not counted, do you still want to oppress our father? Are you and brother dead? I don’t know how to persuade and stop it.”

Xiuli saw that Xiumei seemed to be in charge of the family as soon as she got married, even the way she spoke was different from before, she was both happy and worried.

Xiumei entered the main room, and ran into Mrs. Liu in the main room, but she didn't call out. Instead, she went in to look around, first saluted the third aunt and third uncle, and then reluctantly called Grandpa and Mommy, which was not at all for Qin Dafu. It's as if you didn't see it.

Old Qintou and Mrs. Zhang were a little embarrassed, and immediately reminded her to say hello to the uncle and aunt.

Xiumei reluctantly called out to Mrs. Grandpa, her voice was like a mosquito humming, "I called as soon as I entered the door, but you didn't hear me."

At this time, Xiurong and Xiuyao also came over, and Xiumei was waiting for them to salute her. A married girl is considered a person of status when she returns to her natal family, and unmarried younger siblings must be respected.

She felt that she finally had the opportunity to overwhelm Xiurong and Xiuyao, so she naturally did not let this opportunity pass.

Xiurong and Xiuyao called her sister to come back, but they didn't salute, Xiumei immediately pouted her mouth in displeasure.

Xiurong and the others ignored her and went to do their own things.

Xiumei went to Xiuli's house, and complained that Mrs. Liu didn't give her a red envelope, "It's the Chinese New Year, why didn't the aunt give me a red envelope? How can I say that I am also a married daughter."

Xiuli hurriedly persuaded her, "Sister, don't be like this. It would be nice if you could go home for a while. Later, please ask your aunt to tell the Gao family that your mother-in-law will stop beating you."

Xiumei suddenly felt shameless, couldn't hold back her face, stared and said sharply: "Who are you listening to nonsense, I don't have a good life, your brother-in-law obeys me, what I say and what he does, I let him go He dare not go west. Although my mother-in-law is more powerful, she treats me well, and I coax her to squeak every day."

Xiuli felt that this was very boring, so she pulled Xiumei to sit down, "Sister, it's already this time, why are you still pretending? Don't we know what kind of life you lived in Gao's house? You asked several shopkeepers to bring me and my brother Xin, don’t you think it’s boring to say something like this later? With me, what are you trying to hide, now that your parents are away, if you don’t ask your aunt and uncle, who do you expect to support you?”

Xiumei said angrily: "I count on their support, but they still want me to suffer, why don't they just ignore me? I might as well count on Sandada and San Niangniang. Sister Juanjuan is still a young lady in the Gao family."

Xiuli sneered, "Sister, are you out of your mind? You were fooled by the third aunt and mother. At the beginning, the aunt and the others had torn faces with Lao Gao's family because of the matter of Xiuxian and second sister. In the end, the two of them discussed how to get rid of it." You were sent to Gao's family, and you gave Gao's parents a disgrace, and finally married our Qin family's daughter to make them proud. As for the third aunt, it was even more extreme, and she sent sister Juanjuan to be a concubine directly. What a sequel, that's just It’s just a good thing to say to deceive people, to deceive others. Have you ever seen any married couple who were not allowed to return to their natal family? Juanjuan’s family has been married for so long and has never been back. Even the third uncle and third aunt went, she I didn’t dare to come out to see her, but I just asked someone to send a bunch of money, and I don’t know how to spend it. The last time I asked the people from Brother Qi’s side to help inquire, Sister Juanjuan, life is hard, that old man... ...It’s so cruel to her that you don’t treat her like a human being.”

"Stop talking nonsense. Who are you listening to? Sister Ren Juanjuan is married well. Although her husband is older, she is a rich family after all." say what.

And Xiuli was dying of anxiety, her sister was not doing well in Gao's house, she was beaten and scolded by her mother-in-law every day, she was not a fuel-efficient, so she scolded Mrs Gao, but Gao Xinghu was a filial son, and Gao Yuanwai was also a shy and silent , it's like the two girls bullying Xiumei.No matter how powerful she is, she is still no match for the couple.My parents are not around, and Xiumei has no one to support her in her husband's house. If she doesn't please her aunt and uncle, won't her life be ruined?
Xiumei didn't care, she got angry when she saw Xiuyao and the others. The idea instilled by her second and third aunts since she was a child has been deeply ingrained. It's unthinkable to bow your head to Da Fang.

Because it was the twelfth lunar month, everyone was preparing to celebrate the New Year, and they all stayed at Qin Dafu's house.

Xiumei and Xiuli share the same room, eat lazy food every day, sleep until the sun rises, eat fish, meat and vegetables, do nothing after eating, eat snacks, and then look around for trouble.Either he thinks the cook is not good at cooking, or he thinks that woman is lazy, or he brags about how the Gao family is, how he is in charge of the family, in short, he just doesn't talk about how he suffered.

Liu Shi and the others entertained Xiuli and Qin Chan for their sake. Anyway, she was leaving after staying for a few days, and they didn't want to deal with her too much.

On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, it snowed heavily, and Mrs. Liu directed people to fill the sausages, and they were very busy.

Suddenly someone braved the wind and snow and rushed into the Qin family's yard, shouting: "Is anyone there? It's Xiujuan's natal family."

When Qin Ye saw it, he went up to ask, the man was flushed with cold, and shy away, "It's Qin Xiujuan's natal family, the one who was sent to Lao Gao's house in Changqing County to be a concubine."

Qin Ye took a look at him and saw that he was dressed as if he was working for a rich family. He nodded, "This is her uncle's house."

The man rubbed his hands, "Oh, but I found it. I'm afraid she can't do it. Gao's family won't let me tell you. I also secretly sent a letter while I was going home during the Chinese New Year. Go and have a look." Well, maybe we can see each other for the last time."
