Chapter 32 Swap for Tender Corn

After listening to Jian's father's words, Jian Qingling is still very relieved. It seems that the people of Jian's family have not lost their ego because of their immediate interests.

"Father, I understand what you're saying. Since Ziteng and I can come up with these things, it means we have that ability. Don't worry, we didn't empty our family." Jian Qingling made a joke.

"Even if you have that ability, you can't always bring things to your mother's house. Every time you bring things, it's not from the wind." Father Jane sighed.

"I brought it all with you, you can't let us carry it back again, it's too tiring." What's the point of bringing back the things you took out as gifts?
"Don't worry, when you go back, let your eldest brother help you memorize it." Jian's father was very firm.

Jian Qingling was helpless, and it was really difficult to send something and be pushed back three times.

Jane's mother didn't speak, and let the father and daughter argue by themselves. In the end, whoever wins, she will do what that person wants.

"Hey... Dad, why don't we take a step back?" In any case, she wouldn't carry that little bit of rice back.

"How to withdraw from the law?" His daughter seemed to be more and more assertive.

"Is it okay for me to replace the rice with something else in my house? I don't have it in my house, or it's not common."

"Okay, you probably know what's in the house, you pick it yourself."

Jane's father thought that the family's granary had run out of several kilograms of rice, and their family had not eaten rice for a month. Since the son-in-law had already carried the rice, the daughter-in-law said it was a good method, so let's change it.

"I don't have enough vegetables at home, so let's replace it with this." The land in the mountains is not restricted, and the vegetables can't be eaten at all.

They were fed to the pigs at the end of the meal, but unfortunately they were not enough to eat.

"How can vegetables be exchanged for food? We can't finish the vegetables at home. If you want, you can come and pick them at any time. You don't need to change them." Father Jane rejected his daughter's words.

"That's right. There are too many dishes at home. If you don't have time, your second brother and I will deliver it to you when we have time."

Jane's family didn't have to think about it to know that the daughter (sister) indirectly used this method to subsidize their family after the direct delivery of rice was not feasible.

How can they safely accept those things from their sister?Absolutely not.

"Well, there's not much other food at home, so there's a lot of corn. I'll bring you a hundred catties of corn kernels later." Father Jane thought for a while, and then said what he thought was the most ideal solution.

"I don't want it." Jian Qingling objected without even thinking about it.

Not to mention that [-] catties of rice can be exchanged for [-] to [-] catties of corn at most, and it cannot be exchanged for [-] catties at all.

And this rice was originally brought here to honor the parents, how could they be allowed to post it backwards?

"Then you can carry the rice back." Seeing his daughter's eyes wide open, Jian's father said non-negotiable: "No negotiation."

Jian Qingling choked, when did his father become so difficult to speak?The father in her memory was not like this.

I didn't like to talk very much before. When discussing things with him, as long as it's not a big deal, he always agrees with a smile, and it's easy to talk.

Is it the case that the stronger is stronger?
"Father, let's change another method." Jian Qingling could only come up with another idea.

"Well... you said, I listened." But only listened.

Only he himself knew that he would not let his daughter go to her mother's house to subsidize things.

"I don't want ripe corn kernels, it's just that, now a lot of tender corn can be eaten, I just want that, can I change it?"

Jian Qingling has already figured out that since Father Jian insists on a fair exchange, then change to what she wants.

She has space, and the tender corn she bought can be placed in the space. If she wants to eat it, she can take it out and eat it at any time, roast it, cook it, or cook it in advance and put it in the space, and take it out and eat it at any time.

"Yes, yes, then change a hundred tender corns, but pick so many at once, where do you put them? Maybe it will be gone in a few days, so that's good, let your brothers give it to you every ten days. Can you send twenty of them out?"

Jane's father didn't want to agree, but thinking that his daughter likes to eat that food, he shrank back when he didn't agree.

"No, I have a cellar at home, and the temperature inside is very low, so it can be stored for a long time." There is no need to trouble the two brothers to deliver.

In fact, she also wants to change the sweet potatoes at home. Her parents' sweet potatoes are delicious. There are two varieties. One has a lot of water and is very sweet when eaten raw. Even if it is boiled or roasted, it is soft and sweet. of.

There is another kind, which contains very little water, and tastes sweet and noodles, similar to cooked chestnuts, but many times sweeter than chestnuts.

However, it is not yet the season for sweet potatoes to ripen. They will not be able to grow until September or October. She will come and change them at that time.

Alas... She and Wood don't have a lot of land, so it's impossible to plant a lot.

Unless you open up a piece of wasteland for planting, and you have to plant it in a place that others don’t know about, it will become a collective as soon as it is planted.

It's just that such a place is hard to find.

"That's the case, boss, if you go to pick it for your sister, just pick the one on the right side of the backyard." The corn in that field is delicious, and it was originally grown for the young girl to eat tender corn.

"Okay, Dad."

Brother Jian happened to prepare a small basket. He put the basket in the corner of the main room, picked up a back basket and put it on his back, turned to look at Jian Qingling, "Do you want Xiaoling to come together?" It happened that she could choose.

"Okay." Jian Qingling carried her empty back basket, followed behind Brother Jian, and crawled to the backyard.

It is said that it is the backyard, because there is no one behind her mother's house, so the whole land opened out of the back mountain belongs to the backyard of Jane's family.

The two walked for ten minutes before reaching their destination.

"Little Ling, you point out what to pick, and I'll pick it up." Brother Jane asked while standing on the edge of the cornfield.

"Just what you can eat, I'll pick forty, and give the rest to the big brother." Her basket was smaller, and it was the limit to hold forty.

"Okay." Brother Jian took the lead into the cornfield, and Jian Qingling walked to the other side.

Picking corn was quick, and within ten minutes, the two of them came out with a basket on their backs.

"Big brother, you go back first, and I'll find the younger brother and the others." Jian Qingling squatted down, put the basket down, and placed it on the edge of the cornfield.

"Be careful when you go up, your back basket, I'll come and help you carry it later." Brother Jian said, looking at the back basket on the ground.

"No, anyway, when Ziteng and the others come down empty-handed, let them carry it." Jian Qingling quickly refused.

"Alright, hurry up, don't stay on it for too long, Mom is already cooking, don't let everyone wait for you."

"I know." Jian Qingling walked up the mountain after saying that.
