The skilled widow is busy farming

Chapter 20 Plan
Just after making the pancake, Aunt Xu came with something.

"Mom, I bought you some cloth to make shoes, a piece of cloth for you and my dad each to make clothes, and some candy for you."

Aunt Xu took out the things and bought a bag of pastries and candies for grandma to make the old lady happy.

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been together for decades, and they are still relatives even if they are separated. Second Aunt Xu comes to see grandma every now and then to buy some fabrics, make a pair of shoes, and buy some candies and other things.

Now that the conditions at home are better, there is no shortage of food to eat. There is no need to carry food to support my parents. I come here every now and then to make clothes and shoes for the old man, buy some sweets for the children, help the old man take a bath, and lighten the burden on my sister-in-law.

"good to eat."

Grandma was rocking on the recliner, eating candy with a smile, and stuffed one into Brother Chun's mouth.

"Thank you, Grandma, it's delicious."

"My dear, what do you want to eat? Grandma will prepare something delicious for you today."

Aunt Xu touched the child's little head and smiled lovingly.

"I'm not picky about food, I'm a good baby."

"Oh! You're so good, Mom, let's bake pancakes and eat them."

"it is good."

"Xiu'er, I bought the thread you asked for, and I also asked you what you asked me to ask about."

"I went to see it. Their most expensive pictures are not as good-looking as yours. I can't explain it, but I can tell at a glance that his paintings are not as good as yours. They sell for 200 taels of silver. The shopkeeper said they are Can Silk paintings are too valuable to be touched."

"Auntie, thank you so much, then I understand."

"You have to be better-looking than him. Can you sell it for more money? What do you plan to do to buy a shop and make a living? Do you need our help?"

"Of course it's necessary. I bought a shop and our two families started working together. I already have an idea in mind."

"Really, that's great. Mom, I think Xiu'er can still manage the family. I wish I had this brain."

Aunt Xu turned around to show off to her grandma.

"The Zhou family is a prominent family. They spend a lot more money to raise a daughter than our family. We can spend the money wherever we can. Most girls from his family are not qualified to ask for marriage. Back then, your nephew already had a reputation as a scholar, and he was young and promising. , plus there is more than one person in our family who is rich and famous, people think that Lijiacun is a prosperous family."

What grandma means is that our family is actually higher than the Zhou family, and the lowest girls in the Zhou family are the wives of the county magistrate.

"That's the truth. Xiu'er, what are you going to do for a living?"

"Tavern, sells wine and snacks."

"Hey, that's a good idea. Our man is one of the top winemakers in the village. We can all help with the cooking. Brother Mao's wife cooks delicious food. Brother Jing is also a cook, so he's in the right direction."

Aunt Xu nodded repeatedly when she heard this, and the whole family could use their strength.

"I'm thinking of letting my eldest sister-in-law, brother Jing, two sisters-in-law and nephew do it together. Brother Kang is smart and sweet-tongued, and he also knows the rules at clan meetings in the past. I think he's very good, so I asked him to work as a waiter. Most of the taverns are I have guests in the afternoon and evening, so don’t delay your studies.”

"What a great idea. We don't have enough manpower, but our village has plenty of men and children."

Aunt Xu clapped her hands, this is a good idea.

"There is no need to worry about the supply of these dishes. Our village grows its own vegetables. If it is not enough, chickens, ducks, pigs and cows have already been raised in the wasteland. The vegetable plot can also be allocated a few pieces of land. These can all be used. We are self-sufficient." .”

"Mom, look at Xiu'er's brain. I can't catch up even if I take off my shoes."

Aunt Xu understood as soon as she heard it. Xiu Niang had already had a plan, and every step was expected.

"Just listen to your niece-in-law and don't worry about living a good life. Xiu'er is smart."

Grandma was sitting on the recliner, rocking, with a loving and determined smile on her face.

"You should have thought about it when you bought the land."

"Absolutely. I originally wanted to buy a big farm, but now it's better. It's even better than I thought before. There are so many things you can do in this wasteland, and you don't have to worry about losing income if you don't farm."

"Okay, you're awesome, we'll listen to you."

Aunt Xu didn't ask who owned the shop and how the dividends would be distributed. She didn't need to ask. In short, she wouldn't suffer.As the head of the family, my grandfather has always treated his two sons very fairly. If he has no money, he will help each one as much as possible.

In addition, the parents-in-law are the eldest brother and sister-in-law. They have always taken care of the brothers and never let them suffer.

Grandma has been treating her two daughters-in-law for many years, and she has never been harsh or scolded. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been getting along well with each other for many years, and they have learned from each other. Now Aunt Xu and her mother-in-law also have a daughter-in-law, and they also follow the example of grandma and treat her daughter-in-law well. , the family business is getting more and more prosperous.

"Just wait for my letter. The painting will be finished in one month."

"There's no rush. Don't tire yourself. There's no rush to use it now. They're still busy with our land."

Aunt Xu quickly stopped her, so as not to exhaust her body.

"I'm not tired. By the way, do you have any more wine?"

"Yes, after harvesting the grain in autumn, we still need to make wine. Your grandfather said that we need to make more wine. I guess it depends on what you want."

"That's almost it. Take it step by step. There's no rush now."

Xiu Niang looked at the blue sky above her head. Taverns were not unusual. Her goal was not to be satisfied by just one tavern, but to take off the entire Lijia Village.

But there is no rush now, the lack of money is a priority, and she must let everyone see her ability and strength, so that she can further have a voice and status in the clan.

"Brother and sister, do you want to eat pancakes?"

The mother-in-law came out of the kitchen and asked Aunt Xu.

"Sister-in-law, how about we eat egg pie? I want to take a bite of this."

"Okay, I'll make the noodles, and you wash and cut the vegetables."

"Okay, let's go get some food from the third family, and we'll make pies to eat."

The third daughter-in-law came back from the market with Aunt Xu, her mother-in-law, and ate at her grandma's house. Everyone in the family was out in the field, and there was no cooking for them at home.

"Yeah, I'm going to pick vegetables."

The third daughter-in-law is called sister-in-law Qi, and the third daughter-in-law is called Li Qi, the third son of Uncle Li.

The second eldest son, Li Quan, was released by the county magistrate and took his wife with him. The children were studying at home.

The eldest son is Li Feng, and his wife calls her sister-in-law Feng.

Sister-in-law Qi took a basin and went to the vegetable field to pick vegetables. She picked beans, spring onions, leeks, peppers and other vegetables. There were so many people that she needed to get more vegetables.

My mother-in-law made dough for making pies, while others made vegetables. Brother Chun and his two sisters ate pastries.

"Eat less snacks and eat egg pie later. It's delicious. If you eat too much, you won't be able to eat."

The mother-in-law stuck her head out from the kitchen and told her granddaughter, looking at her grandson.

"understood."

Qing'er and Yingzi had just finished their homework. They had not been idle all afternoon. They were tortured about their homework, learned piano scores, and practiced etiquette for more than an hour. The two children practiced together.

Xiu Niang didn't cook, and there were so many people that there was no need for her. She put the prepared soap and balsam in bottles, and put two or three separate bottles in them, and asked Aunt Xu to take them back later.

In the afternoon, the men came back from their work. After washing, they had dinner.

"Hey, I'm eating pie today. It tastes really good."

The whole family gathered together, and the second uncle led the children to move the big round table out of the house and put it in the yard to eat, where it would be cooler.

The children couldn't wait to tear into the pie and eat it. It was delicious.

Looking at the excitement at home, the grandparents couldn't help but smile.

"Put the food on the table before eating. There are no rules."

Aunt Xu reached out and knocked on a few boys, who laughed and went to grab the pancakes to eat.
