The Landlord And His Wife

Chapter 58: : Dragon Boat Festival into the city

    Fortunately, Yuan Hao brought a few people over at the busiest time. He has always hired these people to plant his 20 acres of fertile land. Of course, he can't be idle by himself. After all, even these people were with him, and a few strong laborers were busy for 20 days before planting the 20 acres of land. After setting up his own land, he immediately brought someone over to help.

      .

      to be thorough.

    The two of them were too tired, so when they came back, they quickly rested.

    Liu Xuer is too busy to cook and take care of Moriko this month. She raises chickens and rabbits. Basically, she has to find grass for the rabbits in a day or two. Shi has prepared a lot, but now he has almost eaten. Fortunately, Liu Shu and Liu Lin have made room, so the two went out to find food for the chickens and rabbits.

    After a month and a half, I finally planted the ground, and the peeling skin is tired even if someone helps.

     

    Both female rabbits are pregnant with bunnies, and they will give birth to bunnies around May. It was time for the first batch of bunnies to be sheared. The nest is big enough, but the food will increase by then. The radishes at the back have been dug up, and even the leaves and slices of radishes are eaten by these edible guys.

    Fortunately, father Liu Changgeng was thoughtful. Before, he turned over all the places in the backyard that could be used, and planted radishes. The large area of ​​radishes can ensure that the rabbits eat.

      Just yellow?

    But what uses a lot of rabbit fur? Now I can't think of it, I can only do the forehead wipes and sachets first, these can be used. It really doesn't work, I can only go to the tooth shop to sell rabbit hair. Of course, there is no need to sell the rabbit hair now.

    The spring ploughing was finally over, and Mr. He, who was free, started to make colorful silk threads, and also made some small animals hooked on the colorful threads, but Liu Xuer said, the next is the Dragon Boat Festival, with colorful threads It is a custom to tell her to make more colorful threads. There is no need for too many small animals. Instead, they can make some tricks. Like the one she made for Moriko before, several kinds of animals are threaded with a silk thread. This is also true. A kind of sash, specially for children.

    Liu Xuer also asked her father to take the time to make a big box for herself, which is the kind of big box that adults use to store clothes. Liu Changgeng agreed. When he split up last year, he had already thought about doing more household stuff, but he only did a few urgent things. As a result, his leg fell and he couldn't move, and all his thoughts stopped. .

    Now that the ground has been rectified, he only needs to go to loosen the soil to cultivate manure and pull weeds every day, which will not make him too busy to find time.

    The rest of April has been so busy.

    The marriage of my aunt Liu Hong has also been set, and it will be held in October this year. Originally, Liu Hong's own intention was to say that after this year, there are so many things at home. But Liu Gao's family disagreed, because after the marriage was made, the future son-in-law during the New Year and festivals would come to the house to give gifts to the husband's family.

    Liu Gao didn't want to make the villagers feel that she was dragging her daughter's marriage for that idea. She has a good face, and she definitely doesn't want Liu Hong to be gossiped.

    Old man Liu listened to Liu Gao's, because what Liu Gao said made sense. So the marriage was set for the eighth day of October.

    He went to Liu Hong to do some work again, helping her make a quilt and two tents.

    Liu Changgeng also started making boxes, the first one was for her daughter Xuer, and the second one was for her sister as well as a dowry box. Other homework... He can't do everything in carpentry work, he can only knock out boxes before talking about it.

    The willow tree and the willow forest have been resting for half a month, their body can be considered recovered, and everything at home is in order, so they went to school again, this time it was different from the last time Now, there are a lot of eggs at home. Mr. He boiled more than a dozen eggs and asked them to bring them, one for each person a day.

    Together with the colorful silk threads and other objects they made these days, the two followed the car to the city.

    At the end of April, the two female rabbits each gave birth to a litter of little rabbits, Liu Xuer and her parents were busy for a few days, and the little rabbits were settled, just in time for Shicheng to invite people from the same village who came back from the market to the city He said that the Dragon Boat Festival called Liu Xuer to play in the city, and there was something else to discuss with her and Liu Shu Liu Lin. Therefore, when Mr. Duan Wu Festival was on holiday, Liu Shu Liu Lin would not come back.

    Liu Changgeng discussed with the He family. Originally, the He family was asked to take Liu Xuer to the city. Liu Changgeng took care of the land and watched Moriko at home. Who knew that the plan could not keep up with the changes, so Liu Changgeng went during the day. Dili talked to Liu Changshi, and Liu Changshi said that it happened that Yuan Hao was going to the city for the Dragon Boat Festival, and he would also go with him, just with Liu Xuer.

    Liu Changgeng heard it just right, he didn't have to go, he just watched Moriko at home, so he nodded in agreement.

    In the early morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, Liu Xuer followed Liu Changshi in the car of the future uncle. When Liu Xuer left, she also took the two hundred cents that Liu Sen put in the house. This time, she has to pay Shicheng rent. It has been three months. one month's rent.

    I got into the car because I have been thinking about these things, and Liu Xuer has not spoken. That little uncle Yuan Hao has seen her a few times, and every time I see the little girl, she is very lively. Quiet? So he smiled and asked, "Xu'er, why don't you talk?"

    Liu Changshi also smiled: "Are you not familiar with your third uncle Yuan? Scared?"

    Liu Xuer hurriedly cheered up and said with a smile: "What am I afraid of? The little uncle hasn't changed my money for me! I can remember that the red envelopes given to me will be bulging! "

    Liu Changshi and Yuan Hao burst into laughter at the time, Yuan Hao naturally wanted to coax her, so he nodded with a smile: "Okay! The little uncle promised you, when the time comes Make sure to give Xu'er a big red envelope!"

    Liu Changshi laughed again, and now Liu Hong is not here anyway, he is also young and fun, so Yuan Hao cheekily called himself 'uncle' with Liu Xuer, and he didn't care.

    Although Yuan Hao's car is also a flatbed car, but it is a sturdy mule pulling car, which is faster than that ox car, and his car can also be installed on a shed, rain or rain On a snowy and windy day, it is not so cold to install a shed.

    "Fourth Uncle, what are you doing in the city today?" Liu Xuer asked.

    Liu Changshi paused for a while, then said, "You, Uncle Yuan, need to buy things in the city. I need some advice on some things... I'll buy something by the way."

     

    Yuan Hao was originally a man of few words, but since he got engaged to Liu Hong, he and Liu Changshi have become good friends, and Xuer is a smart and well-behaved Little girl, so I talked a little more. I asked Liu Xuer if she liked new clothes, and then asked Liu Xuer, is there anything Liushu Liulin lacks in school?

    Liu Xuer naturally understood what he meant, and shook her head. She didn't like new clothes, and her brother didn't lack anything. Of course Yuan Hao didn't believe it, but he was impressed by how sensible Liu Xuer was at such a young age.

    The mule cart soon arrived in the city, and Liu Changshi asked Liu Xuer: "Are you going with the fourth uncle and your third uncle Yuan, and then go to Shicheng after lunch, or go right now? "

    Shicheng has something to do with herself, and Liu Xuer immediately said: "Fourth uncle, just send me to Shicheng, don't worry about me and my brother, you and Yuan Sanshu will turn to the street to buy things, wait. Just pick me up at the shop in Shicheng when you go back next afternoon!"

    Liu Changshi nodded and agreed, and sent her to the shop in Shicheng.

    Shi Cheng was already waiting at the door, and she waved happily when she saw her coming: "Xu'er! Why did you come! Your brother came last night!"

    "What!" Liu Xuer called out, turned around and waved goodbye to Liu Changshi and Yuan Hao, but Liu Changshi heard this sentence. There were two girls in the shop, Liu Lin was holding a string of necklaces to show, and Liu Changshi hurried out again.

     

    Liu Xuer hurriedly agreed, she wondered if the Yingluo could be sold! I followed Shicheng into the shop and saw Willow lying on the counter, poking around on an abacus, so I went over and listened to Willow and the two girls over there, and asked Willow softly: " Brother, have you learned to plan?!"

    Willow looked up to see her, grinned, scratched her head and said, "How can I... I'm still learning..." I scratched my head embarrassedly: "I just learned how to pick beads, but I can't do anything else. "

    Shi Cheng said: "You learn to memorize the formula first, and you can do anything when the formula comes back!"

    "How's business going recently?" Liu Xuer asked Shicheng impatiently.

    Shi Cheng smiled mysteriously, and pouted towards Liu Lin: "Wait until the guests over there leave."

    Although Liu Xuer was impatient, she also felt that there were guests, saying that it would be bad if they were heard, so she could only hold back, turned to look inside the shop, and asked in a low voice: " What about that little Uncle Chen? Why don't you see anyone?"

    Shi Cheng smiled and said: "This shop is almost all for women. After we opened the shop, we found that many of the shopkeepers were women, the eldest lady and the little daughter-in-law. It's not easy to go up to greet people at my age... I scare the guests away! So now as long as I'm here, he'll go to the back, and I'll call him if I have something or I'm too busy. But now your brother is coming over this afternoon, he's not too busy when you come."
