Farmer's daughter is also self-improvement

Chapter 36
On the morning of the 25th, after Xiao Shunzi came, the family was ready to go to the town to go to the market.Li Shasha counted the silver in the wooden box, and there were actually nine five-two ingots, and there were two strings of copper coins, and there were more than 800 by count.Think about it too, except that the first and second days were a little less, and from the third day onwards, the entire vegetable field in the backyard was harvested.

At this speed, I will be able to build a new house in ten days and a half months.She took [-] copper coins and put them in her money bag, and pocketed more than a dozen scattered ones, and then followed everyone out the door.

Because the old lady was old, everyone left her at home to rest. This time it was Wang and Li Yulan who went to town with their two children.

At the place where the bullock carts were waiting at the entrance of the village, some people from the village were still squatting or standing as usual.But now everyone looks at them differently, with some enthusiasm and inquiry.

Mrs. Wang greeted everyone and led them to stand still in a corner.A sour voice came from behind: "Third aunt, are you going to the town to buy or sell again?" The four of them turned around and saw that it was the Qi family of Li Zongxi's family, who was watching with a sour face. watching them.

Mrs. Wang smiled at Mrs. Qi: "Let's go to the town to catch up." Li Shasha was also happy in her heart. Mrs. Wang has now learned to answer irrelevant questions.

When Mrs. Qi saw what she said, she went up to Mrs. Wang: "I said, Third Aunt, why does your family have that big carriage to pull things every day? Does it mean that your family is getting rich by pulling things every day?" Li Shasha I especially don't like this kind of people who drill mountains and dig holes to dig people's privacy. Seeing her question, the people waiting for the bullock carts beside them are not calm, and they can't wait to put their ears close to them.

Li Shasha deliberately stepped forward, and was inserted between Wang and Qi.She raised her head and said to Wang, "Grandma, why hasn't the ox cart arrived today?" Knowing what she meant, Wang knelt down and said to her, "Sister Sha, don't be impatient, wait a little longer Enough!"

Then Mrs. Qi was waiting for Mrs. Wang's answer. Who knew that Mrs. Wang would not answer her question at all because of Li Shasha's interruption, which made her very angry.In a hurry, she stepped forward and wanted to push Li Shasha away, but just as she put her hands on Li Shasha's shoulders, Li Shasha suddenly hugged Wang's neck and shouted: "Grandma, my legs are a little sore, hug me! "

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wang immediately picked her up, walked to a larger stone next to her, and carefully checked what was wrong with Li Shasha.When Li Yulan and Li Xianzhi saw Wang Shi walking away, they also followed, just separating Wang Shi from the others.

Mrs. Qi still wanted to go forward, when suddenly someone shouted: "The ox cart is coming!" Everyone turned their heads and saw an ox cart approaching slowly.Everyone suddenly became energetic, and they all picked up their things and stood up one after another.

Everyone got into the bullock cart, and Mrs. Qi leaned over to ask again, but Li Shasha distracted them all.Qi's teeth itched with hatred, and he couldn't say anything, so he had to grit his teeth with that.

When I arrived in the town, I first bought twenty catties of high-quality glutinous rice and five catties of mung beans from the rice shop, and then bought two catties of dried red dates from the dry goods shop.Finally, I went to the grocery store. Mrs. Wang weighed four catties of brown sugar. Li Shasha didn't quite understand why she weighed so much brown sugar, but she wondered if she needed to use it when making zongzi, so she didn't say anything.

Li Shasha felt that the old lady liked the sponge cake better, and that day Li Lingling also liked it, so she went to the pastry shop to buy more sponge cakes.Coming out of the dim sum shop, I heard someone shouting: "Meat buns, freshly cooked meat buns!" Li Xianzhi couldn't help it, and pulled his sister: "Sister, I got up early in the morning, and I'm hungry now." , let’s buy a few meat buns for the bottom!”

Li Shasha also felt that she was really hungry after a busy morning, so she took out ten copper coins and gave them to Li Xianzhi: "Brother, you can buy buns, but you can't eat them now. We will eat them with the old lady when we get home, or don't buy them." Li Xianzhi Nodded and went.Wang Shi and Li Yulan both nodded inwardly, feeling that Li Shasha was getting more and more sensible.

After a while, Li Xianzhi came back with five steaming steamed buns wrapped in a large sheet of oiled paper.Li Shasha asked Wang: "Grandma, don't we have anything to buy? It's almost [-]:[-] noon, let's go to the bullock cart!"

"There's nothing to buy, let's go back now!" Mrs. Wang replied.A few people returned to the bullock cart, and it turned out that the time was just right.As soon as they sat on it, the uncle who drove the cart drove the cow to Lijia Village with a whip.

When they were about to walk to their home, they found that the old lady was not waiting for them in the house, but stood under the porch and looked up.A few people were a little strange, so they rushed a few steps to the front.

The old lady said to Wang with some guilt: "Third daughter-in-law, let's go in and talk." Wang and the others didn't know what happened, so they all followed in. The old lady led them all the way to the backyard. A few of them were taken aback.

In the vegetable field that was growing well, some people dug up a few trees, and the next few trees were trampled to pieces.Li Shasha stood there in a daze, while Li Xianzhi rushed to his vegetable field angrily, and helped up those vegetables that had fallen to the ground with distress.Wang and Li Yulan immediately had the tendency of flash floods.

Seeing them, the old lady became sad: "Hey, I was lying on the bed, and I heard some noises in the backyard. I thought it was the sound of the little pig, so I didn't care. It didn't sound like it later. , I just wanted to come out and take a look, and then I saw this."

When Li Shasha heard what the old lady said, someone thought in her heart, who else could do such a thing except the Hou family next door.She must have been jealous seeing her family start to get rich, and guessed that Li Zongguang and Li Zongguang sneaked over the fence to do it while there was no one at home.

Li Shasha glanced at the next door contemptuously, hum, it's a pity that even if you dig it away, it won't help. There is no space for water vegetables to grow and no harvest, and without space seeds, you can't grow anything.Seeing the apologetic look on the old lady's face, she stepped forward and took the old lady's hand and said loudly, "Don't worry, old lady, even if someone steals it, they won't be able to take advantage of it." After speaking, she glanced at the next door , Sure enough, I could see a figure shaking over there.

"Okay, brother, let's eat first, and then come over to tidy up after dinner. Grandma and aunt, don't worry, go into the house and unload the things you bought." Li Shasha greeted everyone, and helped the old lady enter the house first.

After Mrs. Wang came in, she began to sob: "It's getting better just now, and it's ruined by people like this. Xiao Shunzi will come over to pull vegetables tomorrow, how can it be good?" Li Shasha persuaded: "Grandma, it's okay, let's go first Putting things down, it's quite heavy on the back." As he spoke, he came up and squeezed her hand.

Seeing that Li Shasha seemed to have an idea in her mind, Mrs. Wang slowly stopped talking.Several people unloaded the baskets on their backs, Li Yulan put the glutinous rice, mung beans and red dates back in the barn, and Wang put the four catties of brown sugar back into the box.

Seeing that they were all busy, Li Shasha took out the oiled paper bag from her small backpack, which was still warm.Li Shasha took out a bun and handed it to the old lady who was still blaming herself. The old lady took the bun with some doubts: "What is this?" Li Shasha said, "Old lady, this is a new hot pot bought from a bun shop in the town. The meat buns are still hot, so hurry up and put them on the bottom."

While speaking, Li Shasha helped her to the bed in the back room and sat down, and said to the old lady: "You eat here slowly, and I will distribute these buns to everyone." She wanted to tell Wang Shi and the others in her heart Said, comfort their hearts.

The old lady nodded, and Li Shasha took the oiled paper bag and went out.When I saw Li Xianzhi outside, I handed him one: "Brother, eat what you want quickly, remember to bring a bowl of water to the old lady." Li Xianzhi took the buns, poured a bowl of water on the table, and went into the back room .

Seeing him go in, Li Shasha waved at both Wang and Li Yulan.The two gathered around, and Li Shasha distributed a steamed stuffed bun to eat first, and then whispered: "Grandma, aunt, don't worry, they don't have our water, and it's useless to dig that vegetable away, it's just a matter of our effort. "

Mrs. Wang was still a little worried: "I'm afraid they won't do it once, and they will come again. It's good to let them destroy the vegetable field in our backyard." Li Yulan nodded in agreement after hearing this.Li Shasha comforted: "We won't all go out in the future, and one of the four will be left to watch the vegetable field. It's really impossible. The grandpa's Ah Huang is about to give birth. If we want one, we will tie it to the backyard."

Li Yulan felt uncomfortable thinking about it: "Mom, when we earn more money, we will find another place to build a house, far away from their home, and see what other moths can come out." Li Shasha simply said when she heard this. It went to her heart: "Auntie, I agree with all my hands. Living with this kind of person, I am worried that our life span will be shorter. Grandma, in the future we will earn a lot of money and build big bricks and tiles. Fang, make those people jealous."

Mrs. Wang also made their blood boil, and slapped the table: "Well, we must live better than them!" Li Shasha was happy in her heart, and this grandma finally got her senses.She was so happy that she ran over and put her arms around grandma's arm: "Grandma, each of us has a pair of hands. As long as we work hard, we will live a better life than them."

The three talked very happily, and they started cooking quickly.It didn't take long to get almost done.Li Yulan put the dining table away, and after all the food was served on the dining table, she asked everyone to come over for dinner.After eating, everyone went to the backyard. Li Yulan and Wang lifted up the fallen vegetable seedlings and planted them again. The places that were dug away were replanted with seeds.Li Xianzhi and Li Shasha carried the basin and watered every vegetable.

Li Zongguang and Hou Shi stole those few vegetables from the next door, but it was like a treasure.At noon that day, Mrs. Hou eavesdropped on their conversation with the backyard again, and Sister Nasha said that she could not take advantage of it if she stole it herself.She was very unconvinced, and wanted to grow vegetables to feed livestock in Lijia Village by herself. She said that who would dare to be number one in the second place, and only thought about how to grow better vegetables than them, and sell them at a better price than them.

The husband and wife don't know where to plant them. In order not to be discovered by others, they planned to plant these vegetables in the innermost part of their vegetable field, so that it would not be easy for others to see.

Who knew that no matter how carefully they were planted, on the second day after planting, those few vegetables would all wither instead of fruit.This made Li Zongguang and Hou Shi very angry. They didn't know what the reason was, and they couldn't figure it out.

The couple summed it up and decided to steal a few more trees when there was no one next door.They waited and waited, and the house next door didn't know what was going on, there was always someone there, which made them unable to do anything.The couple had nothing to do, so they had to wait and wait for the opportunity to act.
