The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 28 The Shen Family's First Pot of Gold (1)
When everyone looked at Lei Kui, they found two long scratches on Lei Kui's sleeves. The two sleeves had been torn apart and swayed in the wind. Because he was covered in sweat from beating Lei Kui just now, now the whole body feels spoil.Even Bai Ming, who has been with him for so long, is the first time to see Lei Kui in such a mess.Seeing this situation, the Shen family immediately thought of the little white fox named Mao Mao. Everyone had lingering fears about the previous incident. Sure enough, there was already a little white fox standing on Shen Xuan's shoulder, with its fluffy tail touching Shen Xuan's face to tickle. , Shen Xuan was comforting in a low voice.No one would have thought that such a small and cute thing would have extremely sharp claws.

"I know, I know, it's my sister's little white fox." Seeing such a "mighty" scene for the first time, Brother Qiu admired Lei Kui who had defeated his sister, and excitedly betrayed Shen Xuan and the little white fox.

"What?" Lei Kui roared loudly, he couldn't believe that one day he was beaten so badly by a little girl and bullied by a fox.

Shopkeeper Bai and Bai Ming were more reserved, just staring at the little thing on Shen Xuan's shoulder curiously, as for Qingyun's own shopkeeper who didn't speak, he didn't dare to speak.Father Shen hurriedly apologized to Lei Kui, "I'm sorry, brother Lei, my little fox is a bit more. Well, it usually doesn't show up in front of people, maybe it avenged the girl when it saw you fighting with the girl."

"Maomao only likes younger sister." Said this Brother Qiu was rather depressed, no matter how intimidating and tempting he was, Mao Mao ignored him, and only agreed to hug him occasionally for a while at the request of his sister, which would never exceed a quarter of an hour.

"Head of the house, take Brother Lei to change your clothes first. You can change the clothes you made a few days ago for Brother Lei before you put them on." Mrs. Zhou saw the clothes standing in the yard shattered Lei Kui discussed.

"Yes, yes, change your clothes first." After Zhou's reminder, Father Shen realized that he was a bit impolite, and hurriedly took Lei Kui to the house to change.

After Father Shen and the others left, the others sat down again, drinking water without knowing what to think, the atmosphere was surprisingly quiet for a while.Shopkeeper Bai wondered why his third young master told his family to treat the Shen family well, especially Shen Xuan, a 5-year-old baby is so good.He knew that Shen Xuan had proposed this watermelon. Could it be that the Shen family still had secrets that he didn't know about; Bai Ming recalled what the young master said to them when he left, "Maybe they will meet again soon."

"Hey, why don't you talk?" Father Shen interrupted everyone's thinking.It may be because Shen's father's clothes are not suitable for Lei Kui, which makes him look a bit awkward, but overall it is okay.

"Ah, by the way, there is one more thing this time: the young master sent a letter to ask if the watermelon can be picked, and the shops in other places are ready." Shopkeeper Bai said.

"It has already begun to ripen, and we can pick it tomorrow. We can harvest about 3 stubbles a year. This stubble is about 3000 catties per mu. My family's 7 mu plus my eldest brother's 1 mu makes a total of 8 mu, which is about two to 4000 catties. I don't know about you. Can you accept it?" Said that no one is more familiar with watermelon than Father Shen, who checks it all day long, even if he didn't know, he was shocked when he calculated it, he didn't expect such a high yield, and Father Shen was really worried that the other party would not be able to accept so many.

"No problem, charge as much as you have." Shopkeeper Bai was not worried at all, and joked that he was less worried.There are 15 branches in the whole court, and the average weight of each store is only 1600 catties. I looked at the watermelons on the table for about 5 catties, so there are only 300 watermelons.It's better that my own shop is small in the town, and the ones in other cities are probably not enough, especially those nobles who are more eager to compare new things. What's more, after trying it myself, this product is really good, and it is an absolute bestseller.

"Then when do you think it will be picked?" Father Shen was more anxious than anyone else.

"Tomorrow, I need to go back and prepare some things today. Let's take the price of rice, 30 Wen per catty, how about it?" Shopkeeper Bai mentioned the price.

"Will this be too much?" Father Shen didn't expect such a high price.In this way, growing watermelons is much better than growing crops.Shen Xuan didn't think so, these watermelons were diluted and cultivated with spiritual water, so it was cheap to sell them by themselves.

"It's not expensive, so let's make a decision first. I'll go back and arrange to come over tomorrow morning. The two of them will stay." The shopkeeper Bai left with Qingyun in a hurry, leaving Bai Ming and the two of them looking at each other with the Shen family. .

"I'll go to the eldest brother's house to talk about tomorrow's affairs." Father Shen couldn't accept being the master.

"Mom, go to bed for a while." The head of the house left, and it didn't seem like a thing for a woman to stay behind, so she turned and left.

"Little sister, I'm going to practice calligraphy in the house." Brother Qiu saw that his father and mother had left, and he and his sister were left, feeling that the atmosphere was not right and slipped away.

Seeing that she was the only one left, Shen Xuan reluctantly greeted the remaining two, and said with a smile, "Uncle Lei, Uncle Bai, sit down."

Bai Ming and Lei Kui looked at each other, and Bai Ming replied: "Miss, I don't dare." Since his previous master asked them to follow the Shen family, they can follow the Shen family, not to mention that their contract of prostitution is still in the hands of the Zhou family. Woolen cloth.

Shen Xuan also knew that the ancient servility was deeply rooted and no longer forced them, but she didn't think that the current conditions of her family could make these two people sincerely recognize the master.As for the confrontation between myself and Lei Kui just now, it was just because I met someone who knew martial arts for the first time to try my own skills.Seeing that Lei Kui suddenly had an idea in his mind, let Lei Kui be a coach to help him train a group of people, so as to plan ahead.The future development of my family will definitely be blocked by people with good intentions, burning, killing and looting. This is an eternal truth, although these things are a bit early.

"You two uncles, you also saw it just now. My house will be busy next time. How about it. You stay at my house first. After you finish your busy days, you and I decide whether to stay. You will live in the West Wing for the next few days The house over there, brother Wuyou lived in before." Shen Xuan didn't decide to keep the two of them now, the effect of staying at home and their own decision to stay is different.After Shen Xuan finished speaking, he left.

Lei Kui looked at Shen Xuan who was about to leave, and called out "Miss?"

"What's the matter?" Shen Xuan looked at the awkward big man standing there and asked.

"Can I have a look at your little fox?" Lei Kui still couldn't believe that it was such a small fox that could scratch his sleeve.

"As long as you can catch it, I don't care if you get hurt." Shen Xuan threw Maomao towards Lei Kui generously and walked away. After that, the Shen family jumped up and down, and Lei Kui sat down panting, Accompanied by a clean Bai Ming, "Brother Bai, can I really not even catch a fox?" Lei Kui suffered a lot all afternoon.

Looking at the little fox who didn't know where he was going for a long time, Bai Ming explained, "It's not that you can't catch anyone." Except for Miss, of course, Bai Ming just thought about it, and didn't intend to tell Lei Kui to continue to beat him.
