The bought lady will farm

Chapter 85
The woman with the child on her back, half lying on the ground picking beans, would get a slap from an alcoholic man from time to time.There was a hole in his head, and his face was covered in blood, half lying on his stomach while working.

On one side, there was an old woman who yelled and cursed from time to time.

"The loser, lose money. This lazy woman is a bad luck. If it weren't for her, our family wouldn't make life worse every day, beat, beat her to death so we can find a new wife..."

The mother-in-law scolded, and poured a ladle of dirty water over.

On one side, there were two little maids curled up there, helping the woman pick up beans together.

"Cough, excuse me, I'm looking for Miss Mann."

"Oh, lose money, someone is looking for you." The fierce woman roared, turned around, and when she saw Li Hongmei, her eyes lit up, "Hey, isn't this from the Zhao family? Hurry up and sit in the room, what kind of wind is there?" Blowing you here, you actually came to my house."

She was still yelling and cursing before, but now she immediately turned into a kind old woman. Li Hongmei couldn't help but sigh, whether it's in the village or the city, people's ability to change and act is the same.

Why she was warmly welcomed, needless to say, is also related to the recent Zhao family building a new house, buying mountain land and so on.

"Well, auntie, I'm just looking for Man'er Niu to exchange some seeds. Here, this is the money I want to buy the seeds."

Li Hongmei quickly took out twenty copper coins, and the woman saw it, and her face burst into a smile.Grabbed the copper coins. "Come on, just come, a handful of seeds, it's not worth the money when you come here yourself."

But having said that, he put the money straight into his arms.Then he turned around and yelled at Man'erniu, who was numb to work, "Let you hold a handful of seeds."

With trembling hands, Man'erniu was holding a large handful of seeds and wanted to come over.But the woman yelled strangely, "You woman, you can't do any work well. If you let you praise you, you will just praise me like this."

She cursed, stretched out her hand, grabbed a handful from Man Erniang's hand, and stuffed it into Li Hongmei's hand. "The Zhao family took your money, I'm sorry, you can take this seed back and use it."

Li Hongmei stared blankly at the twenty or so soybean seeds in her hand, and thousands of idiots were clamoring in her heart.

Your sister bought twenty soybean seeds for twenty copper coins.

One copper coin and one soybean. This is the most expensive bean ever since ancient times.

That Man'erniang stood there in shame, not daring to lift her head.It's this woman, with a smiling face. "From the Zhao family, my daughter-in-law knows how to grow soybeans, and we are embarrassed to accept your money. How about this, I will ask Man Erniang to accompany you to plant soybeans?"

Well, this woman can be calculating.

Knowing that her ugly face is due to the fact that her bean seeds are too expensive, she deliberately asks her daughter-in-law to accompany her to plant them.In a disguised form, it is to explain that my high price is justified.

Li Hongmei wanted to say, you don't need to teach me, but looking at the blood on the woman's face, she nodded, "That's fine."

The other two little girls saw that their mother was about to go out, so they dragged their noses and went out together.

After walking far away, Li Hongmei turned sideways and looked at Manerniang, a woman with a sad face and a pair of numb eyes.When Li Hongmei looked at her, her bare feet curled up uneasily.

"Zhao..."

Speaking is not too clear.Obviously, he doesn't talk much to outsiders.

"Don't be afraid, I just think that if you carry the child on your back like this, will it be too tight? Do you have to breathe after doing this work?"

The child tied up by the woman is the same as a thief, obviously afraid that the child will fall to the ground.However, in this way, can the child and her communicate with each other?

"Where...wheezing..."

There was a trace of gratitude in the woman's eyes, she faltered and bowed her head quickly.

Seeing her like this, Li Hongmei sighed lightly, it seems that this is a woman who is used to being submissive.

When she came home, the woman picked up the hoe, dug up a piece of the ground, and then took out the bean nest.

"Put ash, plant ash in it, and then put the beans in. The beans planted in this way will grow well."

Looking at the bean-covered nest, Manerniang smiled all over her face.It seemed that these were her children.

This kind of her made Li Hongmei a little surprised. Isn't this woman soulless?Look at the look of people planting beans, the whole thing is fresh.

"Did you bring these beans?"

"Well, I brought them from my hometown. I always had them on my body. When I arrived at Luo's house, I planted them, and now I have a lot of beans."

When it comes to Dou, Manerniang talks a lot.Such a weird person made Li Hongmei very surprised.

That Man'erniang looked at the vegetables in Li Hongmei's field, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

She walked up to the wolfberry plant that Li Hongmei carefully protected.

"This, good stuff...delicious, sweet..."

"Have you eaten?" Li Hongmei was pleasantly surprised.

Unexpectedly, there are still people here who know wolfberry.Does it mean that this person knows how to plant it!
Before Li Hongmei asked, Man Erniang moved the wolfberry plant aside.

"It can't be planted indiscriminately like this. It has to be done like this..."

As she said that, Manerniang built a well-shaped shape around the goji berries, and finally let the goji berries grow there without any side vegetables.

"That's how you grow better."

After finishing, Manerniang scanned Li Hongmei's wild vegetable garden again.Looking at it, I looked at another kind of leaves that Li Hongmei couldn't recognize, which looked beautiful.

"This, when cooking, you need to pass a line of water, otherwise, it will not be good to eat."

Well, this woman seems to be very good at planting.

Li Hongmei tentatively asked again, "Then, do you know how to plant your grains to grow better?"

"Grain? Pick seeds, grow seedlings, and call them when it's not cold."

Although it was just some simple words, Li Hongmei still understood.

This is to say that to grow grains well, it is very important to choose the seeds, and it is even more important to raise seedlings and keep the temperature warm.When it grows to a certain extent, it needs to be transplanted immediately.

Unexpectedly, this man'erniang is actually a master at planting.

If this person is invited to manage and plant the wasteland of his family, will the crops grow better?
With this thought, Li Hongmei couldn't resist anymore.

You know, for this small farming family, of course, the crops in the field must be well planted to survive.

But now, her family has land, but neither Zhao Dashan nor Zhao's mother can do it.

As for Liu Baocai's family, let alone pay attention to it, that is, the family eats and drinks.

Because of this, Li Hongmei has always wanted to find a master who can plant.

"Man'erniang, do you like planting?"

It seems that Man'er's family only grows some beans.Next to it, Man'er's father and grandfather are in the tofu business together.

The father and son were greedy from dawn to dusk, and all the money they earned was exchanged for wine and became their cup.

"like."

"Then your Luo family, why didn't you let you grow it?" Li Hongmei followed up and asked.

"They say that farming doesn't make money, but tofu comes with money."

This is also true.You know, there are not many people who can make tofu here.

The father and son of the Luo family went out to seek a living earlier, and only learned how to make tofu and came back.Finally, after Manerniang knew how to grow soybeans, their family started a tofu business as a matter of course.

Ordinary people can't afford this tofu, but many people in the city can still afford it.

Speaking of which, the tofu business of this family is indeed doing well.

Aside from the cost of some soybeans that come out of the field, you can earn a lot of money all year round.After all, this is an exclusive operation.

"You only grow your soybeans for your family's tofu business!"

Manerniang nodded, and began to look at the wild vegetable garden in the field again.In her eyes, it seems that only these things can attract attention.

"Well, the child's father thinks that I don't grow enough beans, and I can't supply tofu."

"Then there are soybeans in the village, why don't you go outside and collect them?"

"No money." The woman replied quite simply.Li Hongmei was very puzzled.

When it came to Man'er, the girl was about the same size as San'er, and explained in a low voice.

"My father bought beans from others on credit, and he didn't pay for two years, and they won't give me any more credit."

Well, the relationship is meeting Lai Zi, no one will give such a thing again.

"If, for my wages, I let you come to my house to farm, I wonder if you would like it?" Li Hongmei is a person who thinks about it, and decides to hire Man Erniang to work on the spot.

Man'erniang's eyes lit up, but soon they darkened.

"I'm afraid it's not easy, the family won't let me."

"This……"

"How about I tell your mother-in-law?"

It would be a pity if such a good talent was ruined and ruined like this.

"Row……"

Looking back, Li Hongmei discussed this matter with Zhao Dashan.

"It's not impossible to recruit a man's mother. I'm afraid that Luo Qiu's family will often find trouble."

Li Hongmei raised her eyebrows, "It's not easy, let's seal the contract to death. The terms have to be settled, otherwise, I told you about this matter, what should I do if I lose money at that time!"

Of course good people cannot be let go.

Although the best of this family is a bit difficult to deal with, but the talents should be kept.

"Then let's discuss and write this contract."

After the couple finished writing the matter, Li Hongmei asked how the trip was going.

"Brother Liu will bring the people who are building the house to have a look at our new house tomorrow. They can't understand the blueprints, so they just say that it's okay to look at the house from a distance. I reckon, as long as we look at our house , it's pretty close."

Seeing him happy, with a joyful smile on his upright face, Li Hongmei was also happy for him.

"It seems that the man in my family is capable. After going out for a while, he took over all the work. Not bad, not bad, continue to use his strengths."

Being praised again, Zhao Dashan is so happy.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm coming back to see if our big bed is ready!"

These words made Li Hongmei dumb immediately.Avoiding the guy's scorching eyes, Li Hongmei stretched out her feet, "Wash your feet."

"Yes, my lady."

I didn't wait for my wife to wash her feet for three days. I really miss it.

Looking at this big man who was washing his feet, Li Hongmei also covered her mouth and smiled quietly.

The young couple were chattering happily, and Zhao's mother came in.

"Dashan, you sewed a beige, and you wear it for work outside."

Zhao's mother's eyes stayed on Zhao Dashan, who was squatting and washing Li Hongmei's feet, her smile slowly froze.

Li Hongmei was startled: It's broken. In modern times, a mother who sees her son washing his wife's feet will be scolded to death. It's not comfortable.

Now, it is even more miserable for her to be served by Zhao Dashan like this...
