The first peasant daughter of the green garden

Chapter 70 Planting Greenhouse Vegetables (4)
Aunt Nian laughed and said, "When you become a daughter-in-law, you should also take care of your body. Don't just think about making money. If your body is exhausted, you won't have any more money."

"The Chinese New Year will be in two or three months, so we need to earn more money to celebrate the New Year."

"It's hard to find a daughter-in-law as capable as you in our village. Jiacheng is really lucky." Aunt Nian cheerfully took out some homemade fried meatballs and dried sweet potatoes from home, "Sit down first After a while, the food will be ready soon."

Aunt Nian was very happy today, and Li Caiwei was also much happier. Although she was very tired, after working day and night for half a month, she finally finished all the ten acres of land.

"Aunt Nian, is Uncle Nian feeling better?"

Aunt Nian sighed, "The body is getting weaker and weaker. Before, I was able to eat by myself, but now I can't even eat. Now I can only drink some porridge every day."

"Aunt Nian, do you want to ask the doctor to take another look?"

"At this age, I will be satisfied if I can live until the Chinese New Year. I have nothing to look forward to. I just hope that the three evil sons can come back before the old man loses his temper." Aunt Nian brought the cooked braised pork to the dinner table He said, "Don't talk about those three scoundrels, Jiacheng, can you drink some wine, your uncle has been brewing rice wine for several years, and you are not willing to eat it."

"Aunt Nian, let's have a drink."

The food is very rich, especially the braised pork. After eating a few pieces of fat, it is not greasy.Uncle Nian also seemed very happy today, and when Aunt Nian brought him food, he also ate a little.

When she got home, she was also a little drunk. The hard work of the past half month was finally not in vain. Including the jujube money sold last time, it was almost 20 taels.

She happily sprinkled the money on the bed, slightly drunk, blushing, and pulled him to the side of the bed happily, "Jia Cheng, look, this is our money."

Li Caiwei picked up one or two of them and put them in his palm, "Jiacheng, we've made money." He laughed, but suddenly choked up after speaking.

Liu Jiacheng was a little at a loss, he clumsily hugged her in his arms, his bushy eyebrows moved, "What's wrong?"

Li Caiwei shook her head, and couldn't help leaning her body into his arms, "Jiacheng, we are rich now."

Liu Jiacheng carefully hugged her in his arms and hummed for a while.

"Jiacheng, when I saw Uncle Nian, I suddenly missed my parents. I was very worried about them. I don't know how they are doing?"

"Mom and Dad are sure to be fine."

She moved her body and wrapped her arms around his waist, "Jiacheng, I'm a little tired."

Liu Jiacheng hugged her clumsily, the strength in his hand increased a little, he seldom heard her complain, rarely heard her complain that she was tired, this was the first time he heard her cry. "Where does it hurt?"

She moved her arms, "Maybe it's because I'm too tired these days, and my back is a little uncomfortable." Seeing the worry in his eyes, she comforted with a smile, "It's okay, I don't have to cut rice tomorrow, it won't be like this tired."

The bought ducks have been raised for a month, and the ducks have grown to about 3 taels.

Li Caiwei drove the ducks to the yard, scooped out half a bowl from a bag of rice at home, and when it was sprinkled on the ground, the ducks quacked when they saw that there was rice to eat.

Liu Ergou came back from the river with his clothes on. Seeing that the duck had grown so big, he said enviously, "My daughter-in-law, your duck has grown so big."

"There is a lot of food in the field recently, so it grows faster."

"I think you can raise some more chickens, so you don't need to buy them during the Chinese New Year."

"I thought so too, but I haven't seen anyone selling chickens."

"My family has it. Two months ago, the old hen in the family started to hatch chicks, and all the chicks came out. I can't keep them at home. I want to sell a few."

"How much do you sell for one?"

"If you want to buy it, I'll give you ten pennies."

"Okay, wait until I finish the work at home, otherwise no one will take care of the chickens and ducks at home."

The rice has been harvested, but it still needs to be dried. After finishing the work at hand, my aunt's house has to help dry the rice last year.The rice needs to be dried twice to ensure that it will not become moldy after entering the warehouse.

Jiacheng passed by early. As soon as she passed, she heard Aunt Nian come out of the room in a hurry, her face pale, "Jiacheng, uncle Nian is dying." Liu Jiacheng hurriedly put down the pole and walked into the house.

Li Caiwei rushed up, "Aunt Nian, don't worry, I'll call the doctor over now."

Hastily called a doctor from the village, the doctor diagnosed Uncle Nian, stood up and shook his head, "Aunt Nian, hurry up and prepare for the funeral."

Aunt Nian asked anxiously, "How long can the old man live?"

"I'm afraid it will only be a few days."

Aunt Nian wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, nodded, and after sending the doctor away, Aunt Nian walked up to Uncle Nian and held his wife's hand, "My wife, what do you think the family will do after you leave? If you hadn't insisted on marrying me back then, it wouldn't be like this now."

Uncle Nian raised his old hand and placed it on Aunt Nian's.

"Old man, what will happen to the family when you leave?"

Uncle Nian looked at Jiacheng who was standing next to him, and said to Aunt Nian, "After I leave, the land in this family will be yours. Those scoundrels will never get a penny." When excited, he couldn't help coughing stand up.

Aunt Nian quickly comforted, "Father, don't worry, the land at home will be taken according to what you said earlier, and I have no objection."

Uncle Nian shook his head, and said weakly: "These three beasts don't even want to get a share of their property."

Seeing this, Li Caiwei said anxiously: "Uncle Nian, don't be angry, you have to take care of yourself."

Uncle Nian closed his eyes and shook his head. Aunt Nian comforted him. Uncle Nian rested for a while, and his breathing gradually recovered.When Uncle Nian fell asleep, the three of them went outside the house. Aunt Nian took her hand, "I'm a daughter-in-law. In fact, I married later. Your Uncle Nian already has three children."

It turns out that Aunt Nian is the stepmother, and the three sons have been prejudiced against Aunt Nian since they were young. No wonder the three sons have not returned home.

"Aunt Nian, if you need any help, just call us." Li Caiwei comforted Aunt Nian for a while.

Three days later, Uncle Nian passed away, and the three sons did not come back to visit him until the last time.

Fortunately, there is such a custom in the village, if there is a wedding or wedding event, they will come to help, but everyone knows about Aunt Nian's situation, discusses it secretly, and feels sorry for Aunt Nian and Uncle Nian.

Liu Ergou's wife scalded the pork while Li Caiwei washed the vegetables. "I have become a daughter-in-law. I heard that Uncle Nian gave your family all the land. Is this true?"

Li Caiwei didn't take it seriously, and carefully washed the beans on hand, "Daughter-in-law Liu Ergou, where did you hear that?"

"I'm not talking nonsense. Aunt Nian and the village chief discussed something just now and called Liu Jiacheng over. I think that must be the case."
