The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 646 Harvesting Potatoes Again
"Then don't forget me next time. Even if our mother earns this money, it won't end up in our family. You might as well let me earn it, so that at least your eldest brother and nephew can eat well."

The sister-in-law hid the 130 yuan in her room and counted it several times before she could believe that her personal money had increased by 30.00%.She saw that Bai Xin's clothes were too small and wanted to make him a new one, but she was afraid that He Shaoying would find out that she had private money and force her to leave, so she could only press these pieces of paper in the cabinet. underneath, just in case you need it.

She wanted to give Bai Meixi some gifts in return as a thank you, but after rummaging for a long time, she only found a small bag of peanuts from a wooden box, grabbed a small handful and put it into Bai Meixi's hand.

"Sister, these are the salt-fried peanuts that my mother-in-law brought to me. You should also try some. My mother-in-law knows everything in the kitchen. She's not at home, so I can't get it for you."

The sister-in-law told Bai Meixi that there were very precise quantities of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, rice, flour, grains and oils at home. Every time He Shaoying went out, he would mark the oil drums and rice bags to prevent her family members from stealing food while she was away, even at noon. The number of pieces of braised pork has been calculated, and no one can steal a piece without her permission.

"Sister-in-law, this is a gift from your mother-in-law's family. Of course you should eat it. I have something to do and can't stay at home for too long. Our mother will come back later and ask her not to tell anyone that she has met me, especially my husband's family. Otherwise, this child Whatever happens, it will be blamed on the Bai family."

Bai Meixi has repeatedly told her sister-in-law to keep this secret. This is nothing to the Bai family. As long as Bai Meixi can give some good things every time she comes, they are willing to keep her mouth shut. , no matter who asks, he won’t say a word.

Bai Meixi quietly rode back to the Fourth Sister Temple, and then returned to the attic of Chengjia through the space. Jiu Sheng had already come to clean it and put today's lunch in the basket, which only contained steamed buns, cabbage and some pickled vegetables. , much worse than the meals of the previous few days.

These meals didn't look like they were prepared by a married woman. It was obvious who had done something in them. It seemed that Wu Qin had been able to get out of bed again in the past few days and started to think about the things in the kitchen again.

Wu Qin's petty attitude made Bai Meixi dumbfounded. Now even Xiaojun in Puhai City knows how to collect scraps to make money, but Cheng Haiqiang and Wu Qin are still at the stage of taking advantage of the family. Although those eggs and ribs are rare, if If they are as willing as Xiaojun, they can afford as many eggs as they want.

Bai Meixi took the things in the basket back to space to avoid wasting them. She made some meat and porridge and had a full meal.

The meal at her parents' house at noon was very depressing. There were many people on the table and few dishes. Every time she took a bite, He Shaoying would glare at her. As a result, Bai Meixi was not full at all, so she could only make up for it in the space. Take good care of yourself and your children.

Bai Meixi and Wu Qin stayed at home peacefully for a few days. The food in the past few days was good and bad. It was obvious that Wu Qin did not succeed every time, and some good things were still given away. Come in.

Jiu Sheng also said that Wu Qin's condition was good and bad. Sometimes she could only lie on the bed and hum, and her voice didn't sound like she was pretending.

Bai Meixi was too lazy to pay attention to Wu Qin's matter. She took stock of her private money and found that she still had 2195 yuan left, which was a lot less than when she was at her peak.

But she was not worried at all. Today was the day when Aunt Liu and her family returned to space. As long as they took the potatoes and grain back to the warehouse, they would definitely be able to sell them at a good price.Bai Meixi was waiting at the door of the Fourth Sister Temple early in the morning on the eleventh day of the first lunar month. Aunt Liu and her family had already arrived. A family of nine were waiting in the yard. They knew the rules very well and would automatically close the door as soon as they approached it. Eyes, waiting for Bai Meixi to take them in.

They were used to this feeling of walking through the wall, and the path under their feet was particularly steady. Bai Meixi took them directly back to the small courtyard of the dormitory and asked them to pack their luggage first.

"Master, we didn't bring many things back, so there's no need to pack them up. Let's go take a look in the fields first. Don't waste such good things." Aunt Liu got into working mode as soon as she came back. As she talked, she walked towards the fields and started talking. The luggage was not put back into the house, but just thrown in the yard.

"Boss, you should call us back as soon as possible. The potatoes in the field have grown so big that they will sprout if they are not dug out." Aunt Liu started digging potatoes as soon as she arrived at the edge of the field. Almost all the potatoes here have grown to two inches in length. The size of a fist, smooth on the outside and tight on the inside. It is a rare and good variety.

Others also went to the ground, some were digging, some were carrying, and some were bagging and packing, forming a one-stop service in an instant.

Aunt Liu was very happy during this Chinese New Year. She had just arranged a marriage for her eldest son two days ago. The family had a clean family background and a lot of land, but they only had two sisters and needed men to help farm the land.

They agreed to marry their elder sister first next year, and then send their youngest son to that family to be their son-in-law when she is over 16 years old. The two families will officially become one family. Both families are very satisfied with this proposal, and most of the bride price will be waived. Aunt Liu's family is much more relaxed. Next, they just need to focus on building a house and getting the eldest son married.

"Aunt Liu, wouldn't this mean both sons can start a family?" Bai Meixi was happy for Aunt Liu. The most worrying thing in rural areas was for their sons to marry a wife. Now that the problem of the two sons has been solved at once, Aunt Liu's family is simply relieved. Once you get over it, life will be good from now on.

"That's right, I didn't expect to be able to say that there are two at once. The two daughters of that family are both good-looking and gentle in temperament. If there is a son in the family, they will never accept such a small amount of gift and marry the daughter off. .”

Aunt Liu came back very energetic this time, and soon the two families had already prepared potatoes for an acre of land. Bai Meixi was grateful for their hard work and took the initiative to prepare the lunch meal and specially made chicken soup for everyone to replenish their health.It contains mushrooms picked from the bamboo forest and wolfberry berries bought from the capital, which are both delicious and nutritious.

Growing potatoes in these 20 acres of land is a huge project. Bai Meixi is currently inconvenient and cannot quickly dig out everything in the field and send it back to the warehouse like last time. He can only rely on the labor of Aunt Liu's family.

They worked for seven full days before collecting all the potatoes in the field and stacking them neatly in the warehouse. This time the harvest was much more than last time, and the warehouse was somewhat insufficient. There were dozens of bags of potatoes. They were piled outside and a high wall was built outside the warehouse.

Potatoes are easy to store. As long as they are dug out, they can be stored for more than half a month. However, now that the grain in the fields has matured, a warehouse will need to be occupied after threshing and shelling. The need to build a new warehouse is imminent.
