Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around
Chapter 353 Buying a Plow
Many hands make light work. In just two days, the foundation was leveled. Before finishing work that evening, Liu Siyue found Master Chang and said, "Master Chang, I haven't been home for the past few days. If you need anything, please ask my second uncle."
"Don't worry, Madam Liu. I'll be keeping an eye on the construction site, so nothing will go wrong. If you need anything, I'll go to Master Liu."
The next morning, Qingwu had the oxcart ready. Liu Siyue had Ruxue hold the child and sit on it while she drove the oxcart.
Qingwu drove a horse-drawn carriage carrying Yao'er's food—the milk-producing sheep.
Madam Feng looked at them with reluctance, "Be careful when you're out and about. If anything happens, send someone to inform us immediately."
Ru Xue held Feng Shi's hand and kept comforting her, "Mother, if you keep acting like this, we probably won't be able to leave the house today."
If you're really worried, you can come with me to the county town, or you can tie me to your belt.
"How dare you talk like that, you brat! Get out of here, get out of here!"
"Mother, don't worry, Ruxue and I will be back on our wedding day in August."
Don't worry, eat and drink as usual. We don't want to come back to see an unattractive mother.
The two cars drove one after the other along the road, arriving directly at the mansion in the county town. The people inside were overjoyed to see their master return and greeted him in unison, "Greetings, Master! Happy New Year, Master!"
"Happy New Year, everyone! Come inside!"
"Master, you've finally arrived! Everyone has missed you so much."
"I miss you all very much. I'll be in the county town these few days, spending the New Year with you all."
Yun Chenxin took the child and teased him, making the child giggle.
"April, take a rest for a while and have some water. I have something to show you later."
"Ningxiang, we arrived early and haven't had breakfast yet. Have you eaten?"
"We haven't eaten yet either. The kitchen is cooking. I'll go check. It should be ready soon."
There were few people in the house, just enough to seat everyone at one table. Before the meal, Liu Siyue gave each person a red envelope containing five taels of silver.
Everyone held the heavy red envelopes, overjoyed, and said in unison, "Thank you for the reward, Master."
After breakfast, Yun Chenxin pulled Siyue to her room. "Chenxin, what's all this mystery about?"
"By the way, are you all wearing the underwear I gave you?"
"We're all wearing them now, and we're so used to wearing them that we'd feel strange not wearing underwear."
Mrs. Xu next door has asked me several times why my breasts are so firm and haven't sagged. I was so scared that I didn't dare to tell her.
April, look, this is the underwear pattern you gave us, which we made ourselves, except it doesn't have any soft stuff inside, and the straps aren't elastic.
By the way, where did you buy that material?
"I don't know either. I bought a finished product from someone else."
Liu Siyue carefully examined the underwear they had made. Apart from the lack of elasticity in the fabric and the absence of sponge, the workmanship was quite exquisite, and it was even embroidered with flowers.
"Great job! It looks really good. Let me try making this effect."
"April, can't try, there's no iron hook to hold it there."
Liu Siyue took a look and it was true. This iron hook wasn't hard to get, was it?
"Let's think of another way; we're sure we can find a solution."
The two of them were discussing and finally came up with a way to tie a hole in the door with a strap. Qingwu knocked on the door and said, "Master, Madam Yun and Madam Xu have come to visit."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
"Sister Liu, I knew you were coming today, but I didn't come because it was too early."
Xiao Cui placed a food box on the table. "Madam Liu, these are some snacks that my wife specially prepared for you."
"Oh dear, I'm troubling you again, Sister Wang."
Have you prepared everything I requested?
"Everything else is ready, except for the oven. The blacksmith said it won't be ready and delivered until today."
"No need to rush. I'll go check out the plows today, and if they're good, I'll buy some."
"Okay, I'll go with you. I'll buy a few too. The place that sells plows is right in front of the county government office."
"Okay, I'll get ready and we'll go."
The group arrived at the county government office in a horse-drawn carriage. There were many onlookers, but very few people actually went up to buy anything. Dozens of plows were displayed at the entrance, and people kept going up to examine them.
Liu Siyue and the others also sat in the carriage and watched, wanting to see if anyone would buy it.
Amidst the commotion, a group of people suddenly appeared, saying, "Officer, our master says he wants to buy 20 plows."
"We need 10."
"We need 15."
……
The plows displayed in front of the county government office were quickly sold out, leaving only about ten plows.
The yamen runners addressed the onlookers, "The Crown Prince is compassionate towards the people and has devoted much effort to developing this curved plow to ease your burden."
Go and ask around in the prefectural city. These curved plows are in high demand. These hundreds of plows were obtained by the county magistrate on behalf of the people of Lingshui. Some of them are ungrateful.
Limited quantities available, first come, first served. Once sold out, they're gone.
Liu Siyue saw the people who had just bought plows and guessed they were shills hired by the government.
"Sister Wang, have your driver buy a plow so I can take a look."
Wang Zhilan gave the coachman 10 taels of silver and told him to buy a plow.
A short while later, the driver came over carrying a bunch of pears. Liu Siyue got out of the carriage and examined them carefully, finding that they were quite well made.
"Sister Wang, I want to buy 40 plows. How many do you want?"
"I only need to buy 10 plows."
"Sister Wang, I'll ride in your carriage later. Your carriage is all decorated, and if I put the plow in, it will definitely damage the carriage. My carriage is more basic, so I'll put the plow in my carriage and pull it back."
"Okay, whatever you say. If it gets broken, I can just install a new one."
"You're really rich and powerful, even your words are so arrogant."
Tell your driver to find a few more people to help us buy plows.
"Okay, I'll arrange that."
Wang Zhilan then arranged for her driver to find people, giving each person who helped 10 coins.
The driver then searched among the passersby, finding 20 people, each asking to buy two for him.
The constables were bored when they heard a commotion: "Make way, make way! We want to buy plows! We want to buy plows!"
"Officer, I'll take two."
"Officer, I'll have two too."
……
The plows displayed in front of the county government office sold out immediately, and there still weren't enough.
The yamen runners told the people who bought the plows to come in and bring them out. Twenty people, each carrying two plows, left.
The yamen runners brought out dozens more plows and placed them at the entrance. When the onlookers saw that the plows were selling so quickly, some of them were immediately tempted. They squeezed the 10 taels of silver in their pockets again and again, until their hands were sweating.
"Old Yang, are you buying it or not? I'm thinking of buying it, but I'm afraid it'll be sold out later."
"If you buy it, I'll buy it too."
And so, one after another, several more plows were sold.
When several wealthy families from the county town arrived, they emptied the plows in front of their doors, causing the local people to become completely agitated.
A frenzy of buying ensued. "Don't rush, don't rush, line up, line up! You didn't buy when we told you to, but now that it's almost sold out, you're all scrambling for it."
Liu Siyue and the others loaded the plows onto the cart and returned to their house.
"Qingye, do you know that the livestock market in this county town has opened? I want to buy a few cows."
"Master, the livestock market opens today, but I'm afraid there aren't many animals there."
"How about I go and take a look, and then report back to the master?"
"Okay, go and take a look."
