The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 124
In addition, those who give a handful of vegetables, some eggs, a bag of snacks... There are all kinds of gifts, and a group of women are standing in front of the house chattering.It is impossible to formally return the gift when encountering such an opportunity to get close, so Mama Su made the decision, basically putting an apple in one hand and a pear in the other on the spot.

Qingshu and Qingyang only met the butlers of the three families they mainly established relationships with, as well as Feng Yaren's wife and daughter.The three housekeepers left after seeing the ceremony, and Feng Yaren's wife said a few words to Qing Shu, and took her daughter to leave, and did not stay long.

A group of women gathered in front of the mansion, Qing Shu dared not go out with a face full of fear, and waited until Xu Sanniang's braised pork was ready and the group of women dispersed before she dared to go out.

After waiting for more than two quarters of an hour, the kitchen said that the braised pork was ready.

After a while, Mother Su came in wiping her sweat, "Miss, everyone has been dismissed, we can go."

Seeing that Mama Su was exhausted, Qing Shu said helplessly, "Mama Su, if something like this happens again in the future, you should act like a housekeeper, blow away those who should be sent away, and ignore those who should not, please don't worry about it." No matter how easy it is to talk. This person, most of them are bullying. Your politeness and good temper, in the eyes of some people, become easy to handle and easy to fool. There are few people in the world who know how to advance and retreat, but there are many people who push their noses. , don’t let people look down upon you, and treat the entrance of our house as a vegetable market.”

She was obviously being lectured, but Su's mother didn't have the consciousness of being lectured at all. Instead, she smiled, "Miss is becoming more and more sophisticated in the world. When I first arrived, I was about to establish a good relationship with the locals, so I was a little more pleasant. Unexpectedly, I met a few women who were not open-eyed, and they were so clingy that they thought about the good things. Don't worry, Miss. I have a long memory now, and I will definitely not give those women who just want to take advantage of the opportunity to be clingy."

Since Mama Su knew it well, Qing Shu didn't mention it anymore, "Mama Su, I'll leave the pig's feet and pig's head to you." This time, she only ate the stewed pig's feet with Qingyang, so she didn't have to worry about being caught. searched.

Mother Su fully agreed.

Qingshu took Qingyang out and got into the carriage.Xiaojuan, who was carrying half a basket of fruit in her hand, looked not far away and let out a hush.

"What's wrong?" Qing Shu in the car asked.

Xiaojuan put the basket into the car and said: "Miss, there is an old woman standing over there, holding a basket in one hand and a two or three-year-old child in the other, walking a few steps forward and back a few steps step, hesitantly, looking towards our mansion from time to time."

Qing Shu listened, but did not speak.Xiaojuan got into the carriage and told Li Dalang that she could go.

As the horse wheel rolled, Xiaojuan opened a corner of the curtain and looked out.

"What are you looking at?" Qingyang asked curiously.

Xiaojuan turned her head and said in a low voice: "Master, this servant is looking at the strange old woman you mentioned just now."

Qingyang was curious, leaned over to look, then turned around and told Qingshu, "Sister, the strange old woman is crying, she wiped her tears and took the child away."

Qing Shu patted him, "Sit down, I'll bump your butt later, don't cry out that it hurts." Seeing him come back and sit down obediently, she said, "It's probably because of something sad that's why I'm crying. You don't have to be so curious, You cry when you're sad, don't you?"

Qingyang lowered his head in embarrassment, and muttered softly, "I won't cry."

With the sound of the wheels turning, their carriage went a long way.At this time, Ding Jiabao, who was following the car with a burden, suddenly said: "Miss, that is Ning Si's mother. When she came to the mansion the day before yesterday to beg for her son, she was also standing in the same position as before, hesitating." She didn't dare approach the gate of the mansion. She didn't come forward until the housekeeper left the mansion, and said something to plead for her son."

Qing Shu didn't make a sound, neither blaming him for talking too much, nor asking him to continue talking.But he was thinking in his heart, is Ding Jiabao interceding for Ning Si?Why?
When they arrived at Zhuangzi, Ding Jiabao took the burden directly to the kitchen yard, and conveyed Qingshu's meaning by the way, the braised pork was hot at noon, and the kitchen allocated the rest for lunch and dinner.

Ding Jiabao put down his burden and saw that Qingshu didn't show him any work, so he went to the front and followed Wu Tongtou and the others to rub sorghum heads.

Early this morning, the sorghum heads in the field were finished.At this moment, Cai Tieniu was in the field with several people, three of them were binding sorghum stalks, and one was loading the bundled sorghum stalks into the bullock cart.When it was full, Cai Tieniu drove the ox cart back to the open space in front of Zhuangzi.After some days in the wind and sun, these sorghum stalks will be almost dry, which can be used as firewood for burning, and can also be used as a shelf for the vine-growing vegetables and fruits in the coming year.

They were busy here, Qingshu and Qingyang went to the vegetable field.Of the 35 mu of vegetable land, [-] mu of cabbage, [-] mu of big radish and white radish, and [-] mu of green onions.What should I do with so many dishes?Bai Qingfeng said that only by growing wheat can we sell more money, but in summer, only cabbage and radish can be reaped from wheat harvested.After thinking about it again and again, he gave up the idea of ​​planting [-] mu of wheat and planted [-] mu of wheat instead, so there are these vegetables.

Bai Qingfeng also said that there are no less than six farms around Kangxi Town, and the people can grow some vegetables themselves, so the main winter vegetables such as cabbage and radish do not sell well in this town.In the past years, he would sell a small part of it in the town, and the rest would either be sold to merchants, or brought to Jinyang City, where they would be sold to big households or restaurants in Jinyang City.In short, it is a piecemeal business, selling half and throwing the other half, without losing money, and not making much money.

Qing Shu sighed, squatting on the ground, staring at the growing cabbages and radishes, really didn't know whether to praise Bai Qingfeng for his good vegetable cultivation, or to scold Bai Qingfeng for only caring about the previous ones and ignoring the next ones.

Qingyang was looking here and there in the radish field, and suddenly waved his hands and called Qingshu, "Sister, come quickly, it's such a big radish, come quickly, sister."

Qing Shu agreed, stepped into the nearby radish field, walked slowly, and saw the big radish that Qing Yang was pointing at.Qing Shu admits that the radish grows really big, and it's still very big.Its leaves are still very green, only a few leaves are showing signs of withering.One-third of the radish is exposed outside the soil, and its size can be known without pulling it out.

Xiaojuan glanced at it, "Miss, this big carrot, this boss, at least five catties."

Qing Shu couldn't tell how much it weighed, "Pull it out, take it home and make carrot soup for dinner."

Xiaojuan muttered to herself that she must go through the scale first when taking it back, so she bent down to pull it out.

Qingyang quit, "It's mine, I found it, I'll pull it out." Saying this, he pushed Xiaojuan away, holding the radish leaves with his two little hands and refused to let go.

"Young master, let the slaves come, don't dirty the young master's clothes."
