Rouge Pastoral: One Piece for Your Husband

Chapter 51
The eldest aunt's family raised two cows, so the matter of pulling wheat this time fell on their family's head.As for Ning Qiu's family, they just need to let their parents help them.

Ning Qiu is still thankful that she was vague to her aunt before, making her mistakenly think that her family really only needs five acres of land.Now the eldest aunt must feel that the grain in that field belongs to their family, so it is only natural for them to transport it back.

If the land is divided before the wheat is harvested, no matter how much they can win for the family, the auntie and the others will definitely not come to do free work for their family, nor will they help their family pull wheat back.

And there is no cow in my family, if I rely on my father and mother to carry it back and forth, how many times will it take to go back and forth.It seems that the top priority now is not only to repair the house and solve food and clothing, but also to find a way to buy a cow for the family.

After eating, Ning Xia lay down on the bunk, unwilling to move for a long time.After so many days of work, she is really tired.

Glancing at Ning Qiu who was sweeping the floor, she asked lazily, "Miss Qiu, we came back so late today, has the prodigal son Meng been here?"

"I've been here before." Ning Qiu put down the simple broom in his hand: "However, seeing that the eldest sister is not at home, I left a little disappointed." Afterwards, Ning Qiu looked at Ning Chun: "Eldest sister, the words I taught you yesterday, you don't know what to do. How is your memorization? Remember, it doesn’t matter if you say something wrong, your tone and expression must be in place, if you don’t practice well tonight, you won’t be allowed to sleep.”

Ning Chun's face suddenly became very wronged, but he couldn't disobey Ning Qiu's words.This younger sister seems to have become the backbone of the family now.So she had no choice but to nod her head: "Okay, I'll continue practicing...but Qiumeier, when will you say it?"

"I expected to say it today, but I didn't say it today... Then let's do it tomorrow, and finish these things before my aunt divides the land, so as to save night and dream."

Ning Chun nodded, indicating that she knew.

After finishing the work, Ning Qiu took out the two qian silver she got from Doctor Zhang Qing today from her small cloth bag, and handed it to her father and mother who were still twisting the hemp rope.Under the dim light, the faces of the couple had warm yellow halos.

Seeing that Ning Qiu took out so much money at once, Ning Huaizhao and Shi Huixue were both stunned.In the end, it was Ning Huaizhao who spoke first: "Mei Qiu, where did you get so much money?"

Ning Qiu said the words he had prepared: "I was very grateful to Doctor Zhang Qing for saving me before. It wasn't because I picked a lot of rosin from the mountains a while ago, so I thought of sending some to him. Who knows? He said the quality of the rosin was good, so he insisted on giving me the money. I was embarrassed not to accept it, so I gave the money to my parents first. Dr. Zhang Qing is an upright person. Since he said it to me, he would not take it back. , I told him that after picking rosin, I will send it to him, and then he can no longer ask for my money.”

"He agreed?" Shi Huixue asked.

Ning Qiu nodded.She thought about it today, and then she has a measure. She can't hide the money. On the one hand, because the family is so poor, there must be a lot of places where money is needed.On the other hand, she was worried that when her parents and Dr. Zhang Qing met in the future, she would reveal herself if she casually said a few words.

Ning Huaizhao took the money tremblingly, and he was full of praise for Ning Qiu: "My sister Qiu did a good job this time! It's not in vain that your parents have always taught you to know how to repay favors!"

Ning Qiu blinked his eyes, then lowered his head: "Father and mother taught that."
